he began his debating work in the seventh

from Sunday School, or other places where
music was played, he sat down to the piano

had heard only once. remember when he

company. As soon as he was old enough,
Richard began sharing the responsibilities
of the household, and these often amounted
to a man-size job. In his spare time, he
earned pin money picking fruit for neigh
boring citrus growers. Richard never re-
ceived an allowance as boy. There never
seemed to be such thing in those days.

Appeals Court Rejects
Wotson's Freedom Bid

Clarence E. Watson, jr., ac-
cused duck pin slayer of a Gov
ernment secretary and a con-
victed rapist, lost his bid for
freedom today.
The U. S. Court of Appeals
ruled there were no grounds
for a reversal of the rape con-
viction.
Watson, 26. one time Penta-
gon bootblack, was sentenced
to a 13-to-40-year jail term in
1854 for breaking into the
apartment of a 23-year-old
airline hostess and raping her.
He escaped the electric
chair despite two subsequent
convictions for numbering Alyce
10. Taggart, As, with a duck
pin in the SCOTS Hotel in the
$500 block of o street NV.
The murder convictions were
thrown out by the Appeals
Court because confessions and
other evidence used in the trials
were obtained while Watson
was being illegally detained by
police. The Government then
dismissed the murder charge
on grounds it could no longer
prove its case.
Watson argued that his rape
Evening star., 1960-05-12

confession was made during
the same period of detent on
and therefore should not have
been allowed as evidence.
Assistant United States At
torney Nathan j. Paulson
argued to the Appeals Court
that Watson voluntarily con-
feSSed to the rape shortly after
his arrest. The murder con-
feSsion that was ruled involun-
tary followed several hours
later and had no connection, he
contented.
Because of the seriousness of
the crimes and the severity of
the punishment, the court said,
it had carefully examined Wat
sons arguments. 1t concluded
that Watson has presented no
issue that is not plainly frivo-
lous."
Watson had appealed that
his attorney improperly advised
him not to ask for a reversal
of his rape conviction, appar-
emily because it did not carry
the death penalty, as it could
have under District law.
The court today said it be-
lieved Watson had been fully
advised of his right to appeal.

REA Celebrates
18th Anniversary
BY the Associated Press

The Rural Electrification Ad-
ministration celebrated its 25th
anniversary yesterday. Repub-
lican and Democratic leaders
joined hands at ceremonies to
applaud the once-controversial
agency for its part in taking
electricity to rural areas.
Created under President
Franklin D. Roosevelt's New
Deal in 1885, the REA has lent
81 billion to farmer co-opera-
tives and other local borrowers
to build and operate rural
power systems in every corner
Of the country.
In the beginning it was op-
posed by strong elements in
the Republican Party. Much
of that opposition has melted
away over the years. The
Eisen hover administration
claims the program has made
more progress under it than in
all the previous years of its
existence combined.
House Speaker Rayburn OF
Texas, a Democrat, and Sen
ator Aiken, Vermont Repub-
lican, made talks at the ami
versary celebration lauding the
rural power program as one
of the most beneficial ever
enacted.

TVManR Replies
ToDoug|as
BY the Associated Press

A broadcasting executive has
sharply criticized Supreme
Court Justice Douglas for say
ing television and still photog-
raphy should be banned from
court trials and other public
proceedings.
Frank P. Fogsrty, executive
vice president of the Meredith
Broadcasting Co., Omaha, who
is chairman of the Freedom
Of Information Committee of
the National Association of
Broadcasters, said:
Certainly the public has a
right to see and hear its off,
cials in the performance of
their duties"
Justice Douglas, in a speech
Tuesday night in Boulder,
Colo, opposed use of TV
cameras not only in courts but
in congressional hearings. He
said this can "saturate the
country with prejudice against
a witness who may later be
tried in court.
Mr.. Fogarty, in his state
ment, said:
Justice Douglas compares
the courtroom to the Sanctity
of a cathedral. We would point
out to the justice that radio
and television have long since
demonstrated their ability to
bring both the courtroom and
the cathedral to the public and
still preserve the dignity and
decorum which are inherent to
each.
Justice Douglas speaks of
the courtroom as a quiet place
by tradition and seems to feel
that the rendition of justice is
in inverse proportion to the
number of witnesses to a trial.
We do not believe that a large
courtroom-even if this court
room is made large by elec-
tronic means-is less conducive
to justice than an isolated room

He condemned the II = hour
day and Seven-day week as
unnecessary, uneconomic and
unjustifiable."
Deeply Religious
Like his father, he was al
ways deeply religious. His con-
tributions to the church were
without compare. He was a
devout member Of the Baptist
Church in New York. But he
always showed independence of
thought on matters of theology
and society. often he stressed
belief in interdenominational
endeavor.
AS a teetotaler, he advocated
prohibition. After the Eight
eenth Amendment had been in
force for II years, he decided
it was wrong and created ma
tional sensation by saying so.
He lived simply. Often a bowl
of milk with crackers was his
lunch. A short, stocky man, he
appeared to be as unpreten-
tlouS as he lived.
Eternal Principles"
In July, 1899, he enunciated
10 fundamental and eternal
principles" which he called his
creed-"the things that make
life most worth living"
In them he reiterated his
belief in age-old concepts of
Cody living, fair dealing and
individual rights.
The Rockefellers' personal
fortunes paled in comparison
with the size of their public
benefactions.
/ When he was So years old,
John D., jr.'s, personal fortune
was variously estimated at
$3.50 million to S4O0 million.
He already, at that time, had
made personal gifts amounting
to more than Sl70 million.
When his father died, he left
a personal fortune of only a
few millions, less than one
hundredth the value of public
benefactionS he had long be-
fore established.
The diversity of their philan-
thropieS almost def1ed listing.
No full record of them ever was
published.

1t was Rockefeller, jr.. who,
in 1916, offered the $8.5 mil
lion site as home for the
United Nations, making New
York the permanent home of
the world organization.
Another of Mr.. Rockefeller's
vast projects was the restora-
ton of Colonial Williamsburg,
Va.
| The S68.5 million restoration
was started "a years ago by Mr.,
Rockefeller after it was first
envisioned by the rector of
Bruton Parish Episcopal Church
at Williamsburg, the late DR.
w. A. R. Goodwin.
Since then, more than 500
Colonial buildings and "a acres
of gardens and greens at Will
; liamSburg have either been re-
stored or reconstructed to their
Colonial appearance. The re-
stored area covers 1870 acres and
includes the capital building
