as a felony. punishable by five
years Imprisonment or $4,000
fine, or both.
The penalty for so-called
practical jokers. who think it
funny to tell an airline hostess,

would continue to be one-year

both. That now is the maxi

Eisenhower
Shelves Trip
japan
BY the Associated Press

On the advice of the State
Department, former President
Eisenhower has Cancelled his
scheduled October trip to
Japan.
The department said yester-
day it advised Gen. and Mrs.
Eisenhower to call off their visit
because the trip would not be
"propitious."
A leading factor in the deci-
sion, diplomatic sources said,
was the demonstration of some
1000 Japanese leftist students
last Thursday when United
States Ambassador Edwin o.
r else hauer presented his
credentials to Emperor Hirohito.
The snake dancing students

United States policy toward

Just over two months ago,

queen took a secretarial course
and worked for a while as

would be deprived of his re-
tirement pay estimated as
having a lifetime value of
$32, ,495.
2. The employe who was con-
victed of unlawfully claiming
and receiving 1876 hours of
overtime pay of $347. Although
he made full restitution, the
employe on retirement is denied
an annuity valued at $4,000.
3. The employee who was con-
victed of stealing a hindquar-
ter of beef from an Army hos
pital and was fined $3.50. He is
denied a lifetime annuity val
ued at $4,000.
4. The chief warrant officer
who pleaded guilty to several
minor Army violations with the
understanding that the penalty
would not be more than a rep
rimand and a $400 fine. He
has fallen within the scope of
the Hiss Act and will lose re-
tirement pay estimated to be
worth over 100000.
What is the Hiss Act? It was
enacted by Congress eight years
ago as q result of the outcry
that resulted when it was dis
covered that Alger Hiss, who
was convicted of perjury as
the aftermath of the sensational
charges of Whitaker Cham
bers that he and Hiss were
members of a Communist ring,
would be eligible for a deferred
annuity at age 81.
The law denies retirement
annuities or pensions to any
Federal employe or military
personnel who has been con-
victed of a felony against the
Government. Although the law
was aimed at Hiss. it has re-
suited in gross inequities and
injustices against hundreds of
retired civilian and military
personnel.
Some of the annuities have
been denied for offenses which
occurred when the retirees were
just starting their Government
or military careers. In fact.
many of these employees were
rehired after their offenses and
worked or served 80 or 40 more
years with the Government or
the military before retiring.
only to find out that they were
ineligible for annuities or pen
Sions.
Congress nearly amended the
Hiss Act last year to end these
injustices. However. the bill
failed at the last moment to
get final approval.
| This year legislation again
was been introduced by key
members of the House a Id
Senate Civil Service Commit
tees to amend the Hiss Act.
The bill has the strong sup
port Of the Kennedy admin
istration, including the Civil
Service Commission. the Budg-
ct Bureau and the Defense
Department. The General Ac-
counting Office also favorS the
bill. Incidentally, the Eisen-
hover administration also sup
ported the bill.
The bill would allow an
nuities to be paid to all these
former employees and military
personnel. 1t would deny an
nuities only in those cases in
volving national security fac
tors. Alger Hiss still would not
get an annuity.

Anew Job For The NAACP

Andrew Hatcher the associate White House news
secretary put forward interesting proposal recently
before the Washington chapter of the National Asso
citation for the Advancement of Coored People.
Mr. Hatcher who is a Negro made the quite opti-
mistc forecast that ten years from there will have
been much progress toward achieving civil rights that
the NAACP won't have much to do in that area So
he suggested that the organization begin expanding its
effort to include sef-mprovement program
Mr. Hatchers ideas may be criticized by some
NAACP spokesmen. However, there is something to be
said for channelng part of the NAACPs energy into
community service The organization need not relax it's
campaign for the improvement of civil rights but at the
time it ought to have enough drive left over for
other activities.
1t is not unfair to observe that Negroes-as fire.
quently the with minority groups at the bottom
of the economic ladder-have aggravated prob
lens of misbehavor. Here in Washington for example
police report that nearly 80 per cent of the 5 robberes
so far this year have been committed by Negroes.
Much of the for this violent misbehavor re-
suits from the deplorable economic conditions that face
many Negroes 1t is the job of all to help the Negro
munity overcome such disadvantages. The NAACP
might well make broad contribution toward that end

The Real Defendant: Hate
The Christian Science Monitor

The Eichmann trial. which is about to begin in
Jerusalem has raised questions in numerous parts of
the world. The holding of it has also been earnestly
justified not only by Israeli authorities but also by other
commentators.
1t would be desirable if the place of trial could
be that in which the crimes involved occurred And still
better the evidence could be presented before an inter-
national rather than national tribunal.
But the crimes trials with an American prose-
cutor ar Nuremberg have long since taken place. and
Adolf Echmann asserted chief engineer of the extermi
nation of millions of Jews under Naz rule was in hid
ding until Israeli survivors of the Hitler barbarities
hunted him down in Argentina.
The indictment against him is in terms of Grimes
against humanity and Grimes against the Jewish peo-
pie The statutes of Israel under which the charges
drawn are necessarily post facto. But deep COM
pllclty in mass murder against the laws of most
states before the excesses of the 1905 took place.
