Eisenhower,
Eden Differ
On'54Crisis
BY the Associated Press

President Eisenhower said to-
day the United States never had
any plan developed for military
intervention in the Indo-China
crisis in 1854.
Mr.. Eisenhower thus seemed
to challenge a current conten-
ton by Sir Anthony Eden,
Britain's former Prime Minister
and foreign secretary. who
claims to have prevented United
States intervention and the pos
sible outbreak of World War III
Sir Anthony'S newly published
account is that he blocked ef-
forts by the late Secretary of
State Dulles to get the Western
powers to join with the United
States in an operation to sup
port French military action in
1ndo-China against Communist
forces.
Mr. Eisenhower told his news
conference that Mr.. Dulles was
a very forceful man and could
very we'll talk about possibilities
in a way that people could take
to mean proposals. No plan
ever was developed, the Pres
ident then declared, to be put
into action in that particular
instance.

Brokers' Reply
Sets Own Fine

A Washington real estate
broker, held in contempt OF
court yesterday, ended up by
naming his own fine without
realizing it.
The incident occurred when
Municipal Court Judge A. Beard
haled A. R. Seelye of l400 L
street NV. into court for fall
ure to make an appearance last
month in a case where a Michi-
gan firm is seeking restitution
Of an alleged $81 debt.
Mr.. Seelye said he really had
no excuse for failing to show
up for an oral examination by
lawyers hired by the Michigan
firm. The judge then asked Mr..
Seelye if he could estimate how
much public money had been
spent in efforts to find him
and have a U. S. Marshal bring
him into court.
Mr.. Seelye estimated about
$40.
Judge Beard responded: 4:
That's very close. I find you
In contempt Of court and fine
you S40."

D. G. Boosts Tax
By ReuSSeSSment

Owners of some $500 pieces
of property in the District will
be paying higher real estate
taxes next year as the result of
reaSSeSSments.
Will S. Myers, chief of re-

the upward revision has been
made as part of a continuing
review of property values. Each
parcel in the District is re-
viewed under the program at
least once every four years.
He said the review also re-
suited in lower assessment
figures on 200 pieces of prop
erty, reducing the tax to be

There are no launching bases

and officials there say they
know of no plans for installing

So far the Philippine govern

belief that such bases would

DEMOCRATS
Gore Declares 7 est
Is Benefit to Party

There were several switches
on the second motion by Sena-
tor Mansfield of Montana to
authorize the Majority Leader
to continue to appoint the
Steering Committee. This was
approved, 81 to IL.
Supports Gore Motion
Senator Monroney, who helped
write the l947 Congressional
Reorganization Act on which
Senator Gore based his plea for
a more effective Policy Com
mittee, supported the Gore mo-
tion. But he also voted with the
leadership on the Mansfield
motion.
Senator Kennedy, another
switch, explained that he op-
posed the Gore motion because
it directed the Policy Commit
tee to lay down a program for
all Senators, which Senator
Kennedy did not believe was
feasible. On the other hand,
the Massachusetts, Senator said
he opposed the leadership on
the Mansfield motion because
he thinks the Steering Com
mittee should be elected and
not appointed by the leader.
Senator Humphrey was not
recorded on the Mansfield mo-
ton.
Some political observers be-
lieve that Senator Gore, al
though he lost this fight. has
become a stronger vice presi-
dental prospect If anyone
other than Senator johnson
wins the Democratic presiden-
tial nomination. For many
years the Democrats have made
a practice Of giving second
place on their ticket to someone
from a Southern or border
State when a Northerner is
nominated for President.

Reprimond
By3J Judges

Thurman L. Dodson, an at
torney for the National Asso-
citation for the Advancement of
Colored People and former pres
ident of the National and
Washington Bar Associations,
today was reprimanded by
three District Court judges on
charges of professional mis-
conduct.
A District Bar Association
committee had asked that Mr..
Dodson be disbarred, but the
court ruled the evidence pre-
sented in defense of the at
torney's character mitigated
the punishment.
The court ruled that Mr..
Dodson'S "manipulations" in
violation of an agreement with
another attorney, William Row.
an, was a disregard and
breach of professional stand
ards and ethics"
Mr.. Dodson was chief coun-
sci for the NAACP when
charges were brought against
Washington Police Chief Rob-
ert V. Murray in 1857, charg-
ing him and the Police Depart
ment with brutality and dis
elimination. He is chairman of
the Legal Redress Committee of
the District NAACP.
He was accused of withhold
ing funds with which he had
agreed to pay of a clients
debt. Instead, the charges
said, he deducted $3.50 for his
services and gave the rest to
his client instead of the
creditor.
Mr.. Dodson denied the
charges throughout the five
and-a-half-day trial. He con-
tended he was unable to fulfill
the agreement made with Mr..
Rowan because the money was
first not available to him and
later was claimed by his client.

ing he would be at a diSadvan-
tage in talks with Mr.. Khru-
shchev because the United
States is only second best" in

He replied that such an ar

ened" in talking with the So
Wet Premier. He added en-
phatically that II assure you I

ton of the adequacy Of Ameri-

Mr.. Eisenhower said Il don't
take very kindly the implied
accusation that I am dealing

Then he asserted emphatic

that those trying to make it

Explains BIO Cut
The President told another
questioner that his decision to
cut back the BIO bomber pro-
gram was not for budget rea-
sons, but grew out of his con-
versation regarding the neces-
sity of particular weapons at a

should be in a strong position
IN other ways before those

in any new conflict, the Presi-
dent said there had been no
Official suggestion to him that
the United States ever should
be the first to use such methods
