Washington CAMP - The ra-
NOR mills were thrown into high
gear here last week following the
withdrawal by President Kennedy
Of his nomination Of White House
aide Frank d. Reeves a. the Dis
trict's first Negro commissioner
Politicians were inclined to dis
count income tax delinquency or
conflict Of interest as the real rea-
sons why Reeves asked the PreSi-
dent to withdraw his name which
was under consideration for con-
firmation by a Senate COMMITTEES.
However. it is not unusual for
people in the know to not believe
what they read in this city which
is one Of the worlds largest rumor
factories. q.
The withdrawal Of Reeves name
came almost simultaneously with
a prediction by the Washington
Post that he would win confirma-
ton as the capitals first Negro
Commissioner.
1t is believed that as a result,
Reeves political career is at an
end. According to reports he had
already resigned as a presidential
aide when he was nominated for
the commissionership. Earlier, it
had been reported that he had
turned down an opportunity to be
nominated as a federal district
judge. He still retains, however, his
membership on the Democratic Ma
tional Committee.
1t was being anticipated here
that another Negro, possibly John
B. Duncan, recorder of deeds,
might be nominated by Kennedy
to the District commission.
The action followed a Senate in
quiry into tax troubles of Reeves.
Reeves disclosed during the hear
ing that he had been billed for de-
linquent taxes three times in re-
cent years-in amounts Of $64.17,
$51.33 and $62s.40.
Reeves met with the Senate
Committee Of the District of Col
umbia in closed session and dis
cussed the tax matters. Afterward
he wrote the President asking him
to withdraw the nomination. Ken
nedy agreed in an answering let
ter.
The tax problem was not men
toned in Reeves letter. It said the
Senate committee believed that
there would be a conflict" be-
tween Reeves service as District
Commissioner and his continual
ton as Democratic national COM
for the district.
Reeves said he preferred to stay
rs national committeeman. He was
to that post last year,
and the President was aware Of
that situation when he nominated
Pierre Salinger, the Presidents
press secretary, said Kennedy had
not known Of Reeves tax troubles
when he made the nomination. He
said Kennedy had not asked Reeves
to withdraw.
Salinger said Reeves had re-
signed as a White House aide when
he was nominated for district COM
and thus was no longer
with the Administration.

Cemetery
Sues Temple
On Contract

The operator of a Hyattsville
Md cemetery has asked Dis
trict Court to award him $780,
900 damages. charging that the
Temple Sinai congregation vio-
lated contract providing for
burial of members.
The suit, filed yesterday by
A. F. Hauser, president of
George Washington Cemetery,
also named the Temple Sinai
spiritual leader, Rabbi Balfour
Brickner, as a defendant.
Mr.. Hauser alleged that Tenn
pie Sinai in May. 1858, agreed
to sell grave sites to members
of its congregation in an area
of George Washington Cemetery
where 1000 grave sites were
set aside.
The suit said Temple Sinai
agreed that 80 per cent of the
purchase price from sale Of the
grave sites would be turned
over to the cemetery, with the
remaining 20 per cent to be
held by the synagogue congre-
cation to maintain its section
of the cemetery.
The cemetery operators COM
plant said the temple has
failed to provide money from
the 20 per cent reserve fund.
Mr.. Hauser also charged that
the congregation has signed
another contract with a ceme-
terry in Falls Church, providing
for burial of congregation
members there.
Rabbi Brickner said today he
had not been served with any
papers, and that since there
were some technical legal
points" he would not comment
at this time.
