The present non-support unit
under the direction of the Chief
Probation officer John j. Larkin
has been handling about 5000
non-Support cases annually for
the last three years. Extensive
screening by the unit has re-
suited in only a small precent-
age of the cases going to court.
Last fiscal year. only 264 cases
were heard by the Juvenile
Court Judge.
Judge Kectham has made
clear in the past he would like
to see non-support cases handl-
ed by another jurisdiction. such
as the Domestic Relations
branch of the Municipal Court.
However, under the present
laws. this branch can handle
only civil nonsupport matters.
The Juvenile Court cases are
prosecuted as criminal matters.
Although the District Court
has concurrent jurisdiction
with the Juvenile Court over
nonsupport matters. it was
considered unlikely the cases
could be transferred to Dis
trict Court. The United States
attorneys Office. which prose-
cutes all cases in District
Court, abolished its nonsup-
port unit two years ago. It
did so when the corporation
counsel's Office set up a unit
to handle civil cases involving
runaway fathers in the Do

Mr.. Beam was assisted by

United States Embassy in Bern,
Switzerland, who took part in
the earlier stalemated talks
with Mr.. Wang when Ambassa-
dor U. Alexis johnson was chief
American negotiator.
The Chinese american con-

pected to start until later in
the week. and there was con-
siderable belief a desire to keep
the matter of the agenda Of the
United Nations General As
sembly. opening tomorrow,

Mr.. Beam told reporters as
he arrived for the meeting:
II am very happy that 1t has
been possible to arrange this
meeting at this early date and
I hope the discussions will lead
to constructive results"
Mr.. Wang, who arrived eight
minutes later, said he was
very glad to hold these re-
sumed ambassadorial talks in
Warsaw, this heroic city, and
I hope fruitful results will
come of them"
Sought by Both Sides

parently showed the National
lists some new techniques.
AS usual, escort ships from
the United States 7th Fleet
stopped at the three-mile limit
and lay offshore. The Ameri-
can jets covering the operation
were believed under similar
orders.
The supply ship that got
through was an old World War

pared to $50 for the Ism.
Landing Ship Damaged
The LIST slammed up to the
beach and opened the huge
doors in its bows shortly after
noon. AS the Communists
started a 1,600-shell barrage,
the Nationalist said wheeled
vehicles raced ashore with the
supplies and the LIST withdrew.
The shelling blasted holes in
the side of the old landing ship
and fragments severed the ca
bleS' of her doors. Even the
temporary loss of a vessel would
be a stiff price for the 90-ship
Nationalist Navy. The LIST
was towed out to sea and to
her base in the Pescadores.
The air drop was made over
the Nationalist island Of Little

mainland and usually depend

into Formosa to defend this
main Nationalist bastion against
any Communist attack. Men,
missiles and planes are arriving
in FormoSa, which the United
States is committed to defend
under a 1850 treaty with Ma
tionaliSt President Chang Kali
shek.
The material also could be
thrown into the defense Of the
offshore islands of Quemoy and
Matsu If President Eisenhower
decides they are essential to
the defense of Formosa itself.
An indication of the long
range aspect of the buildup
came with the disclosure by
military sources that a large
engineering firm already has
sent representatives to Taipei
with a crash program to build
launching sites for United

siles.
