Concerned with rapidly grow

failure of electronic and navi-

Civil Aeronautics Board several
years ago began a voluntary re-

pilots were promised anonymity
and immunity from blame.
When the program passed to

Dec. 2 (AP).-Conor Cruise

Only yesterday he was re-
lieved at Ireland's request as
U. N. chief representative in

the ground that his services
were needed again at the For

Irish Foreign Minister Frank

SOME TIPS

With the Christ m a S
shopping season bringing
on the annual increase in
pocket-picking, r ob b bery
Squad Capt. Murray Kut-
ner offers the following
list of "don'ts" to down.
town shoppers:
l. Don't let your purse
dangle from your arm or
hang from a shoulder
strap. Keep a firm grip on
it.
2. Don't carry large
amounts of cash into
crowded sections Of the
city. Try to use a charge
account whenever possible.
3. Don't be distracted by
a person who jostles you
on the opposite side from
the hand holding the
purse. A second person
may be opening the purse
at that moment.
4. Don't let a child COM
panion make you forget
your purse. PickpocketS
easily spot this.
For men, the captain
suggests placing the wallet
in a side pocket of the
trousers and twisting the
pocket around. And if
you're in the habit of pat
ting your pocket to make
sure your wallet is still
there, you may just be
pointing out a target.

Shea Proposes
6 SeIf-Re|iance
Relief Projects
Seeks U. S. Grants
For Research on
Aiding Dependent
BY BETTY MILES
Star staff Writer

Six new projects to help de-
velop self reliance among those
who now look to the community
for support have been developed
by Gerard NJ. Shea, District
public welfare director.
Mr.. Shea will recommend
the six plans to the Commits
sionerS as candidates for re-
search money available from
the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare.
About 100000 is available
from HEW this fiscal year for
research and projects to mini
mize dependency, with about
$400,000 still uncommitted.
Both Commissioner John B.
Duncan, who is responsible for
welfare in the District, and
Mr.. Shea have conferred with
Wilbur j. Cohen, Assistant Sec
retary of Health. Education
and Welfare. on possible grants
for the District.
Mr.. Cohen has promised
sympathetic consideration of
proposals, noting that a good
and useful project IN a show
case like Washington could
have national significance.
Projects Listed
The six projects recommend
ed are:
/. A study of the character
istlcs and motivations of the
young women living in the
Welfare Departments training
center for mothers on relief
who become self f-supporting
with center help.
An important factor in this
study would be exploration of
expanding the program. of
which job training is a vital
part, to mothers who remain in
their own homes.
So far, thS program has been
offered or% to mothers who
volunteer to live, along with
their children, at the training
center at l7l9 Thirteenth
street NV. for several months.
Twenty-nine of the first 80
mothers at the home, which
opened last April, got jobs and
went off relief.
2. A program to see if coun-
selling and other services can
lead fathers about to be pa
rolled from prison to reunite
with their families, supported
in their absence by relief
grants. Donald Clemmer, di-
rector of the District Depart
nent of Corrections, is enthusi-
astic about the project. Mr..
Clemmer has offered courses
in marriage and child guidance
in his institutions for some
time. Some of the men in
volved are in prison for nom
support, while others have
committed felonies.
Mr.. Shea estimates $4,000
as the cost of this project,
which would include a project
director and staff. Overtures

Stevenson Nav
Run for Senate
Decision Called
Up to Kennedy
BY CECIL HOLLAND
Star Staff Writer

ShdA SNdAA "IltCE
Adlai E. Stevenson said after
a White House visit with Pres
ident Kennedy yesterday he is
considering running for an L.
linois Senate seat next year.
The decision likely will rest
with the President. Mr.. Steven
son is under heavy pressure
from Illinois Democratic leaders
to oppose Senator DirkSen, the
Republican leader, but the Pres
ident is reported as reluctant to
lose Mr.. Stevenson'S services in
the United Nations.
The United States AmbasSa-
dor to the U. N. said he dis
cuSSed with the Preside e n t
whether he should even consider
making the race. He declined
to reveal what the President
advised.
After a lengthy meeting with
the President, the former Illi-
noiS governor and the 1852 and
1855 Democratic presidential
candidate said the question of
making the Senate race came
up casually" in a conference
devoted mainly to U. N. mat
tiers.
Il want to be guided by the
best interests of my party and
the administration" said 6l-
year-old Mr.. Stevenson.
Mr.. Stevenson appeared quite
willing to talk about the Sem
ate race without revealing in
any way what he would do or
what the President said.
The President is understood
to feel, however-and to have
told Mr.. Stevenson-that he
considers that it was at least
and possibly more important
for him to remain in the United
Nations. The President, in
formed sources say, considers

Reds Blast Kennedy
On Autobahn Plan
International
Control Hit
By UIbricht

BERLIN. Dec. 2 AP).-Wal-
ter Ulbricht, East German Com
munist Party boss, has rejected
as useless speculation" PreSi-
dent Kennedy's suggestion Of
an international administration
for Berlin's 1l0-mile lifeline
highway to the West.
Mr.. Ulbricht, in a speech
to a party meeting published
today, assailed United States
military authorities who have
been sending troop units back
and forth on the road for ro-
tation training IN Berlin and
West Germany. If they think
such movements prepare the
way for lnternationalizing the
highway, he said, they are very
much mistaken.
These are useless specula-
tions. This will never be-" he
declared.
Uibricht Cites Sovereignty
President Kennedy, in his
Interview published in the So
Wet newspaper IzveStia this
week, suggested an interna-
tional administration of the
ll0-mile autobahn to guaran-
tee free movement of goods and
people. 4
But Mr.. Ulbricht said East
Germany is a sovereign nation
and the autobahn belongs to
it. East Germany, he added,
is not a colony of the United
States.
He declared it was complete
ly unjustified to say that East
Cert aan officials would control
traffic along the highway any
differently than do the Rus
slams who now check on West
ern traffic.
Border controls can be re-
laXed and tightened," he added.
The way we handle the con-
trolls depends on the policy in
the front-line city of West
Berlin, on the cold war. :"
Demilitarization Urged
He welcomed Mr.. Kennedy's
proposal to settle the West
Berlin problem prior to discus
Sions on the German issue as
a whole, but said the only So
luton was to make West Berlin
a free, demilitarized city.
Even before publication OF
Mr.. Ulbricht's speech assailing
United States troop movements
on the highway as a provoca-
tive demonstration, the East
German newspaper NeueS
Deutschland issued a warning.
Recalling that a correspond
ent for Tass, official Soviet
news agency, had reported
that the troop movements
might have dangerous conse-
quences," Neues Deutschland
said 1T is our wish that the
Americans will understand this
warning.
The Americans, the paper
went on, should realize that
the result will not be a
Recommendation of American
strength but merely another
proof of the necessity to solve
the West Berlin problem
peacefully"
New Troop Movements
The warning was called
forth by a United States Army
announcement yesterday that
two entire battle groups total
ing about 5000 men will
shuttle down the four-lane ex-
press highway next week in
a bigger than usual movement.
The Russians halted one
United States Army convoy of
nine behicles for more than
an hour yesterday until papers
were corrected to show one Of
the medium vehicles listed was
actually lightweight.
