hedge as they ran, 1t. Brea-
zeale said. King was swiftly
at their heels and quickly
cornered two of them.
Pvt. Ross then dispatched
King after the missing fugitive
and, minutes later, the officers
heard a disturbance in the di-
rection of a house in the 1000
block of Girard street.
There. they found King, his
Jaw clamped gently but firmly
dragging a thoroughly fright
ened youth from beneath a
porch.
The suspect, identified as
Eugene Preston. of the 1900
block of Girard street NV,
was unhurt. He and the other
adult, identified as Claude
Isaac, 20, of the same address,
were charged with robbery.
The third suspect, a, 15-year-
old youth, who gave an Airing
ton address, was turned over
to the juvenile authorities.
For the Preston youth, the
experience with King was just
part of a miserable day. At the
time of the robbery, 1875 am,
Preston had been l8r years old
and beyond the jurisdiction
of Juvenile Court-for just 35
minutes.

U.S.. Gives Poland
S130 Million More
BY the Associated Press

The United States granted
Communist Poland today an
additional $3.50 million in eco
nomic aid as part of its policy
of encouraging the Poles to
rely less on Russia.
The aid, all in the form Of
surplus farm products, raises
to $426 million the amount ex-
tended to the Polish govern
ment in the last four years.
The new agreement, signed
today at the State Department,
came only five days after the
regime of WladySlaw Gomulka
agreed to pay $40 million to
compensate Americans whose
property was seized in Poland
after World War II.
The State Department de-
cided to continue its policy of
aiding Poland even though Po-
lish delegates in recent months
have backed Moscow'S attacks
on the United States in such
matters as the U-2 fight.

Path Cleared
For.HOffa Trial
Court Is Dubious
On His Removal
BY LEE NJ. COHN
Star stan Writer

The United States Court OF
Appeals today cleared the way
for a civil trial Of misconduct
charges against James R. Hoffa,
but expressed doubt that he
legally can be ousted from the
presidency of the Teamsters
Union.
At the same time, the court
rejected Mr.. Hoffa's plea for
an order calling an immediate
convention of the union, which
would dissolve the board of
monitors assigned to clean up
corruption in the Teamsters
Union.
The court limited, however
that it may step in later to call
a convention unless the moni-
torShip hurries to wind up its
affairs.
The appellate courts rulings
added up to only a partial de-
feat for Mr.. Hoffa in his feud
with the board of monitors.
Realty Deal Involved
The monitors propose to put
Mr.. Hoffa on trial before Fed
eral District Judge Joseph R..
Jackson on charges that ne
misused $500,000 of union
funds to promote a Florida
real estate venture in which
he held a financial interest.
The majority of the three-man
board has suggested that MIR.
Hoffa should be removed from
office if the charges are proved.
Mr.. Hoffa and the union
petitioned for writs of man.

(AP) Mrs. Sirimavo Banda
ranaike, a 44-year-old widow
whose name means fortunate
one" was sworn in today as
Ceylon's Prime Minister, De-
fense Minister and Foreign
Minister.
Massive crowds, mostly wom-

worlds first woman Prime Min
lister entered Gov. Gen. Sir
Oliver Goonetilleke'S residence
for the ceremony.
"Jayaewa victory to our
mathini (lady)," the crowds
cried.
The Governor General es-
corted her to a balcony where
she acknowledged the cheers
with the Eastern style salute, in
which the palms are placed to-
gether and raised. Tears, which
she had made a formidable
weapon in the recent election
campaign, were streaming down
her face.
Still in Mourning
Mrs. Bandaranaike wore a
plain white cotton saree for the
ceremony which installed her
as head of the government in
this island of 10 million.
She was without jewelry be-
cause she still mourns her hus-

In Realty Tax
By2-1 Vote
Mclaughlin Alone
For 10-Cent Boost,
$3.50 Rate Kept
BY CHARLES ID. PIERCE
Star Stad Writer

The District Commissioners
voted, 2 to l, today at their
last meeting together against
raising the real estate tax for
the current fiscal year.
Commissioner Robert E. Nc
Laughlin, president of the
board, voted for a 10-cent in
crease in the real property tax
But Commissioners A. C. Well
ing and David B. Karrick
voted no.
Schuyler Lowe, director OF
the District Department OF
General Administration, had
recommended that the Com
missioners maintain the pres
ent $3.50 real estate tax rate
Mr.. Lowe told the Commits
sioners that on July 5 it had
appeared that the District
would be faced with a deficit
of $40 to $11 million this fiscal
year.
However, he said that if the
increase in the sales tax from
Q to 3 per cent is approved by
the Senate, this additional
revenue would reduce the def
cit to So or So million.
Hopes for More Help
He indicated he is not toe
disturbed about this picture
since revenue estimates are
"long grange forecasts of the
minimum total that we expect
to receive" and there is the
possibility of an additional
Federal appropriation for the
District.
In explaining his vote, Com
missioner Mclaughlin said he
felt an increase was necessary
to assure an adequate public
works construction program.
Gen. yelling said that he
did not believe an increase in
the real estate tax was war;
ranted. He added that he haC
voted no when the Commits
sioners originally proposed a
20-cent increase in the prop
erty tax earlier this year.
Commissioner Karrick said he
had been persuaded by Mr.
Lowe that an increase in the
tax was not necessary now.
Expects New Sale Levy
In a report to the Commits
SionerS Mr.. Lowe said that it
would appear that enactment
of a sales tax increase, coupled
with the fact that Congress can
and should appropriate addi-
tional Federal payment for the
District, would substantially
take care of our general fund

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,

ports that Mr.. Lumumba would

who pointed out that U. N.

Mr.. Lodge welcomed a re-
port from Mr.. Hammarskjold
that the new U. N. military

pressed hope that in a few
days it would be close to TO-
