erately raised interest rates and
thus increased the cost of the
services rendered by the as

Mr.. Seaton said the principal
reason for the increase in avail
able power is that the admini-
stration has created a favorable
climate for the development
of water resources by public,
private and Federal interests.
"As to whether electrical
energy should be supplied by
a consumer-owned or a private
agency in any particular area,
I firmly believe that is a deci-
sion for the people affected TO
determine" Mr.. Seaton as

Administration
Power Policies
Hit, Praised

The Eisenhower administra-
tion was praised for its power
policies and criticized for high
interest rates yesterday before
the American Public Power As
Sociation.
The group, meeting at the
Shoreham Hotel, heard Inter-
ior Secretary Seaton defend the
administrations record on
power. He said the United
States has moved from a
period of electricity shortage
to one of plenty" in less than
a decade.
Representative Byron john

assigned to try the case in
volving James r. Hoffa and
the Teamsters Union.
The opinion today written by
Judge David L. Bazelon said
Judge Jackson should not have
thwarted Howard's efforts to
establish the basis for an alibi
defense.
The undercover policeman,
James E. Troublefield of the
Metropolitan Police Narcotics
Squad, testified at the trial
that a transaction with the
defendant took place at about
ll:45 PM, May %, 1858. The
defense tried to show that the
officer had contradicted him
self, by pointing out that Pvt.
Troublefleld testified it was
las pm. while on the stand
at a preliminary hearing.
Judge Bazelon pointed out
that the defense had a right to
try to show inconsistency in
order to raise doubt about the
truthfulnesS of the officers
testimony.
Judge Jackson refused to let
the jury hear what the police
man had said at the prelimi-
nary hearing.
However regretable, it is at
least understandable that the
hustle and heat of trial may
sometime generate seriously
prejudicial error" Judge Baz-
elon wrote. But defense of
such error after opportunity
for objective consideration of
the trial record is another mat
ter"
This was particularly unfor-
tunate, the Appeals Court said
since the officers report showt|S
he had gone off duty IS min
utes before the time he had
testified at the trial that the
transaction took place.
Chief Judge E. Barrett
Prettyman concurred in the
opinion. Judge Walter M. Bas-
tian concurred in ordering the
reversal but abstained from the
opinion.

Youth jailed
In Lesson


A Municipal Court Judge
regretfully turned down an l8-
year-old boys plea for leniency
and sentenced him to 800 DAYS
in jail for assaulting a prep
school proctor.
II feel sorry for the boy as
an individual, but I don't feel
I can simply put him on proba-
tion," Judge Milton S. Kron-
helm, jr., said yesterday after
a jury found Leo Walter Wag-
ner. of the 900 block of Tenth
street NV, guilty.
Judge Kronheim said that
the boy, who works as a sales
man. was apparently part of a
gang and that he has Ito set
an example for that gang"
Wagner was arrested by
police on January 9 for assault
ing John Provan, 25, a proctor
for the past year and a half at
the Colum b a n Preparatory
School. He had gone to the
school with about six other
youths, it was testified.
Mr.. Provan told the court
he was studying for a law
exam in a dormitory at 1921
Biltmore street NV. when a
beer bottle was thrown into
the window next to the desk
where he was reading.
He ran onto the porch,
found a 17-year-old youth and
grabbed him, he said.
While scuffling with the
youth, he said, he was hit from
behind with a blunt instru-
ment three times on the head.
Mr.. Provan said that he was
taken to Washington Hospital
Center and 20 stitches were
taken in his head as a result
of the injuries.
A student at the school,
James A. Roorbach, 10, of
Cape May Court House, N. j.,
testified that he saw Wagner
hitting Mr.. Provan with a
hammer.
Wagner told Judge Kron-
helm that he hit Mr.. Provan
with his fists. He assaulted
the proctor, he said, because
he was defending his friend.

Wake Forest, the two top teams.
If Maryland holds on to third
place, it figures to play Glenn
son or South Carolina in the
first round Of the tournament
at Raleigh. The fourth place
team figures to draw North
Carolina State, the host team,
and a most undesirable first
round opponent.
FQrty-one Fouls Called
Forty-one fouls were called
last night. Duke lost two
regulars and two other players
had four personals each. Mary
land lost Bob Wilson, and Paul
Jelus had a fourth foul called
on him 35 seconds after the
second half began.
The Terps cashed in on the
Blue Devils fouls, making 81
out of 81 from the free throw
line, including II out of 13 by
Jerry Bechtle, who stands at
the free throw line like a man
in a hurry and whips the ball
through the net. Al Bunge
made six out of seven.
Bechtle came up with 10
points for the second straight
game. In his last three games
he has scored So points, his
best streak of the season. Jerry
also was second to Bunge in
rebounds.
Bunge lost his chance to re-
gain the conference scoring
lead from Lee Shaffer of North
Carolina, who was idle. AIS
IA points dropped him slightly
below his 17.7 average. But
Bunge had a busy night all over
the court. He had as many
rebounds as Dukes two top
men.
Kelleher was called to the
bench early in the game after
losing the ball several times.
When he came back in the sec
ond half, the redhead figured
in three baskets within 80
seconds that gave the Terps a
big lift.
The 10-point difference ac-
tually does not show the close
ness of the game. But Duke
hardly figures to be a contender
for the conference title. Howard
Hurt was outstanding for the
Blue Devils in all departments.
Maryland can clinch the big
three title against CIV tomor-
row night. However a victory
for George Washington would

at more rapid rate. There are estimates that
by 1910, for example, private industry will b
using $1.4O worth Of investment in private plant
and equipment to produce 81 worth of output
compared with the 81 investment needed for 81
of output in 1929.
The US. labor movement believes that IL
these factors and Others that enter into lie
growth picture are properly utilized and II pri-
vate and public policies are designed to foster
growth, the United States viii achieve what now
seems to be necessary for the benefit OF tlpe
whole population about q percent growth
rate.
What does that S percent mean? 1t means
about Tillion dollars worth of output by 1910
enough to take care of the needs of growing
population at home and to help our friends in
other parts of the world. There would be avail
able for national security almost twice as much
money as there was in 196O-for defense, for
military aid, for economic aid, and other national
security expenditures. Thus even a greater
amount spent maintaining United States strength
and aiding other nations of the world would not
need to be burden on the total economy.
THIS PERCENT growth rate means that
there would also be almost twice as much money
available for education, for welfare, for public
service needs-for water supplies, community fa-
cilities for improving our cities and rural areas,
for conservation, for recreation facilities-twice
as much as is available now
This means that more money would be avail
able for better training in new skills for retranng
of workers whose jobs have been displaced by
new technology, for helping workers and commu-
mites affected by other economic dislocation, for
keeping unemployment at low levels and for rails
ing employment levels to keep pace with the
population rise.
The expansion of the United States economy,
therefore, at the percent growth rate talked
about at such length by United States political
candidates, is a positive goal that would be
helpful to the people Of this nation and to
peoples of other free nations.
Achievement of this rate does not call for
changing our political or economic system, but d
does require focusing United States public atten-
ton On the need to adopt public and private poll
cies to foster growth at as rapid rate as possible.

PAA Makes Plea
For Lower Imports

WASH INGTON. - President
Eisenhower has been urged by do
mestic oil producers to "effectu-
ate" q cut in oil imports proposed
by the Interior Department.
Col. Alvin C. Hope, San Antonio,
Tex, president of the Independent
Petroleum Association Of America,
wired Mr.. Eisenhower that the
downward adjustments in imports
"are necessary in view Of the con-
tinued depressed level Of (oil) in
dustry activity"
The Interior Department pro-
posals, published in the Federal
Register Oct. %, would trim i'm
ports Of oils other than residual
fuel, in the area east Of the Rocky
Mountains, by about $4,000 barrels
daily.
Hope wired the president that
IPAA had presented detailed in
formation" to the government
showing a need for a larger re-
duction in imports, but added that
depressed industry conditions make
the Interior proposals "a minimum
step toward attainment Of the ma
tional security goals on which the
oil import program is based"
Citing industry conditions which
he said make the import reduction
urgent, Hope said, "total we'll COM
pletions in 1860 will be down al,
most 10 percent below 1859, more
than 20 percent below 1866, and
will be at the lowest level since
1852"
"The number of employees in the
domestic (oiD producing industry
is down $4,000 or six percent be.
low the same time last year and
Al, 900 or IL percent below 1856.
He added, "crude production will
