Appeals Court
Dismisses Suit
On Price Props

RICHMOND, April 3 Dr.
The United States Fourth Cir.
cult Court Of Appeals ruled
yesterday that a suit challeng-
ing the validity of the 1857 pro.
gram to support tobacco prices
must be dismissed for lack Of
jurisdiction.
A group of farmers had sued
Secretary Of Agriculture Ben
son in the Federal District
Court at New Bern, N. C. They
sought price. supports at full 90
per cent of parity.
The effect of their claim
would have been to double the
price support payments they
received for discount aliety"
tobacco.
The trial Judge heard the
case on its merits and gave a
verdict in favor of Secretary
Benson.
On appeal. the Circuit Court
declined to pass on the merits
and ruled only that the trial
court lacked Jurisdiction to
hear the suit.
In an opinion by Judge Simon
E. Sobeloff. the appeals court
held that Secretary Benson
could be sued only in the Dis.
trict Of Columbia, his Official
residence.

Robert. IS at the time, was
injured during a hockey game
January 3, 1858. A U. S. Dis
trict Court jury returned the
award in favor of the father
and son June 81, 1857.
Attorneys for the company
argued that the trial judge
erred in denying a motion for
a directed verdict in its favor.
They also contended Robert had
assumed the risk of injury when
he took a seat in an unprotected
portion of the arena immedi-
ately adjacent to the playing
surface of the arena.
Considering the evidence as
a whole. We will not say that
the-trial judge erred in allowing
the issue to be decided by the
Jury" the appellate court said.

Government officials denied
reports published abroad that
five planeloads of arms had ar
rived from the Dominican Re-
public for Gen. Batista's forces.
The reports followed an ad-
mission by the United States
State Department that it had
held up shipment of 1850 Gar
and rifles to the Cuban govern
ment.
The State Department denied
1t had embargoed all arms ship
ments to Cuba. A spokesman
indicated the rifles were held up
because Gen. Batista had sus-
pended constitutional guaran-I
tees. He explained that the
shipment had been suspended
temporarily in line with the de-
partment's practice of making
sure that arms sent to areas of
political tension are to be used
for the purposes specified in the
Mutual Security Act.
The State Department pre-
viously had embargoed all arms
shipments to the rebels. Castro
has denied that he has Com
munist leanings, although

Party Endorsed his rebellion in

would be responsible for the

Gated at his news conference

to give the Defense Secretary a

matters. both among and

I'VE must remove all doubts
as to the full authority of the
Secretary of Defense" the
President asserted.
AppOrtiOning of Money
A spokesman explained that
the President believed that the
Secretary should have the au-
thority to apportion money for
principal functional items like
research and development
among the services. The spokes-
man added that the President S
1860 fiscal year budget very
likely would be presented in
this functional form rather

Cubu Rebels
End Fast
In Texas

BROWNSVILLE, Tex. April
g R-Thirty-f five Cuban rebel
sympathizers have ended q
seven-day hunger strike called
to protest against shipments Of
American arms to President
Batista in Cuba.
United States Marshal James
McCarty said the men ended
their strike last night after
they were informed that the
United States had halted =
shipment of rifles to the Cuban
government. -Four of their lead.
erS were returned to Browns
vile from Corpus Christi and
Edinburg.
The State Department said
Monday it had stopped a ship
ment of 1850 Garand rifles to
Cuba. A department spokesman
in Washington said last night
it would be a mistake to call
the action an embargo on all
arms shipments.
Last night the rebel SYM
pathizers took their first food
since their arrest by the Coast
Guard last Thursday. The men,
armed and uniformed, were ar
rested when their converted
fishing boat was rammed of
the coast from Brownsville. Au-
thorities said about $4,000
worth OF arms apd ammunition
were taken. Arrested with them
was their contact man, and
four crew members of the ship.

ity pay raises.
The increase in salary at
each of these steps would be
lifted from the present 1929 to

ranks.
ORicials Generally Agree
Mr.. Lowe said police and fire
officials, who were present dur
ing presentation of the plan to
the Commissioners. agree Il
with the proposals in general.
Police Chief Robert W Muir
ray advocated a $4,000 start
ing salary, instead Of the pro-
posed $4,000, he said. But he
added this was the only major
difference.
Problem of Financing
Mr.. Lowe said the city faces
a very serious problem in SEEK
ing to finance the proposed
increases. Officials have cal
culated that. with other ex-
pected employe raises. the city
may face a total bill of Sc
million or more. The only
source of funds now in sight
to meet such a bill is a back
log of Federal payment money

sted in the last seyerai years.
