oscuro en- los niveles trascen-

7 Soldiers Lose
Plea for Review
Of Rope Ruling

Counsel for seven American
soldiers convicted of the 1856
rape of a l5-year-old girl in
Bamber. Germany. yesterday
lost a plea for United States
District Court review of their
court martial.
Federal Judge Joseph C.
McGarraghy ruled that since
the men are confined to peni-
tentiaries in this country, out
side the District, he lacks
power to consider their petition
for a writ of habeas corpus.
This position had been ar
gued by Assistant United
States Attorney Edward P.
Troxell.
Mr.. Troxell cited law to the
effect that the petition must
be brought in the areas in
which the men are held.
Edward Gem, attorney for
the soldiers, said petitions
probably would be filed in the
Jurisdictions in which the men
are imprisoned, Pennsylvania,
Kansas and California.
The soldiers are serving
terms ranging from Is to 80
years at hard labor.

Turning to the need for more

Wife Found Dead:
Note, Pills Nearby

A young woman was found
dead in her apartment in Mount
Rainier, Md, last night from
what police said apparently was
an overdose of sleeping pills.
Mount Rainier city police,
working with Prince Georges
County Detective Lawrence R.
Wheeler, identified her as Mrs.
Barbara Anne King, Is, of 3108
Varnum street.
Police went to the apartment
after neighbors summoned them
about 8 pm.
They reported they found her
body in the bedroom, and an
empty bottle of sleeping pills
and a note nearby. Police esti-
mated that the woman had
been dead for "a to SO hours.
They declined to divulge what
the note said.
DR.. John T. Maloney, deputy
medical examiner for the
county, said she probably was
a suicide, but planned an au-
topsy today before issuing a
death certificate.
Police said the woman had
been separated briefly from her
husband, Robert L. King, %,
who was located in Washington
about 1890 am.

He was known as Lord Larry
Motherwell when he was an
elder in the National Presby-
terrain Church seven years ago.
Another chapter in the fan
tastic career of Larry Lord
Motherwell, confidence man ex-
traordinary, belatedly came to
light today with his exposure
as an in-and-out church officer.
He was the talk of the con-
gregation so long ago that it's
surprising the newspapers
never learned about it," said
one member.
The carpenter with the be-
quilting manner, now in an At
lanta (Ga0 jail charged with
numbering a Washington widow,

That's when he became in

byterian Church's Sunday Eve
ming Club. a group of young
people. He attended their
meetings and wanted to do
something for them.
"He called himself Lord Larry
Motherwell. and said the title
was legitimately his from his
family either in Scotland or
England" a churchman re-
called.
Motherwell's second wife, who
later drowned in a bathtub, at
tended Sunday services with
him.

Motherwell's second wife

That death was ruled accl-

Mrs. Williamson said Moth

from Washington every day
he was staying with her. She
said they bore no return adj

woman's handwriting.
She said Motherwell told her

his job with the chemical CON-

surfing authority be enacted in
a separate bill.
This recommendation was
interpreted in some congress
sional quarters today as a strong
hint he might veto the present
bill if it retains several other
provisions the administration
does not want.
Commenting on the bill that
would add SO billion Of FILA in
surance authority, Mr.. Eisen-
hover stated:
IAN increase in FHA's loan
authority should not be made
contingent upon the possibility
of approval by the President,
after the Congress has adj
journed, Of legislation which
contains features that the ad-
ministration finds seriously OBJ
jectionable and that are entirely
unrelated to FHA's home loan
insurance program"
Extends FILA Insurance / Year
The new bill would continue
the Federal Housing Admins
tration's mortgage insurance
authority for only one year be-
yond its expiration date next
october. The President had
asked for unlimited FILA in
surfing authority.
The bill would authorize ST.
900 new public housing units.
The President had requested no
new units. The bill he vetoed
would have provided for As, 900.
The pending measure would
authorize $3.50 million in urban
renewal grants. The vetoed bill
had a 5000 million two-year
authorization. Mr.. Eisenhower
had recommended $1.4 billion
spread over six years.
The new bills $3.50 million
additional loan provision for
college dormitories was criti-
cized by House Republican
Leader Halleck as having mo
place in a housing BILL" The
measure also would authorize
$50 million for housing projects
for elderly persons. This was
not among the administrations
proposals.
Still another provision un-
satisfactory to Republican lead
erS is what they call the back
door approach" to financing
urban renewal projects. They
complain that the bill would
allow a direct loan procedure
which bypasses the congress
sional appropriations COM
mittees.
The bill nevertheless makes
what its sponsors describe as
major concessions to the adj
miniStration. 1t no longer re-
quireS the Government to buy
up Wherry housing projects on
permanent military bases. This
would have cost almost 500 mil
lion this year. Senate advocates
OF the new bill said it contains
less than half Of the provisions

tionable in the bill he vetoed.
