Rv SAM EASTMAN
Star Staff Writer

District licensing officials to-
day refused to renew a used
car permit for Nationwide
Motor Sales, Ills K street
NV.
This firm, operated by Leon
Pappas, figured in last sum-
mer'S controversial used car
permit hearings.
Today's notice was directed
against G. & L., Inc, which
operates Nationwide. 1t was
served on Mr.. Pappas, lresi-
dent of the corporation.
The refusal to renew the
used-car license was based on
alleged violations of the city's
car sale and financing regula-
tions, along with an allegation
of business fraud.
Today'S notice was the sec
ond auto license denial for the
permit year that began last
last November l. The first no
tice was sent last week to Auto
Discount Corp, which operates
the Lee Ford used-car lot at
1900 K street NV.
Appeal Possible
The firms may appeal the
license renewal refuSals to the
Districts Board of Appeals and
Review within 10 days after
receiving the notice.
Ross Rosenberg, the central
figure in last years uSed-ca1
hearings at the District Build
ing, was employed as a sales
man at Nationwide. Licensing
officials said Mr.. Pappas tolc
them today that Mr.. Rosenberg
no longer is working at the lot
Mr.. Pappas was quoted as say
ing Mr.. Rosenberg had moi
worked there for about a month
Attorney Bernard Levin, who
has been representing Mr.
Rosenberg, said, however, that
Mr.. Rosenberg has not techni-
cally terminated his employ
ment at Nationwide. Under
District regulations, a used-cal
salesman is required to sur
render his license within five
days after leaving lot.
Mr.. Rosenberg was granted

Defense Fund
Raise Pressed
ByMcNanlara
Secretary Opens
Senate Hearings
On Budget Items
BY RICHARD FRYKLUND
Star Staff Writer

Secretary of Defense Nc
Namara launched his persona
justification of the expanded
defense appropriation propose
before the Senate Armed SerV.
ices Committee today.
In contrast to the brief, gen.
eralized statement usually pre-.
sented by the Secretary of De-
fense, Mr.. Mcnamara started
to read a 167-page, single
spaced statement. A 112-page
unclaSSified version of his
statement was released to the
public.
The released version did moi
contain information on policy
and weapons that had been dis
closed previously in a genera
way.
Asks $5O.1 Billion
Mr.. Mcnamara is asking Con-
greSS for $50.1 billion worth
of new appropriations for mil
itary defense, $48.3 billion oi
which would be spent in fisca
year 1868, starting next July l
Including foreign military
aid. Defense Department ap-
preparations would total $51.t
billion, and fiscal 1868 spending
would be $49.7 billion.
The Secretary told the com.
mittee that initial service re.
quests totaled $63 billion. Before
the budget was given Mr.. Nc.
Namara's final intensive scru.
tiny, it had been reduced tt
$54.2 billion. Mr.. McNamars
said that he himself had Topped
off many non-combat items ir
order to get the most actual de.
fense for the least amount o1
money.
"The defense program we are
recommending for the coming
fiscal year." he said, "is geareo
to our global requirements over
the long term"
The Berlin crisis, he said, "is
but another chapter in the con-
tinuing struggle between Com
munist imperialism and free
DOM" He cited other war-like
crises in Asia and Africa.
He stressed particularly that
the new budget gives increased
tools to meet Communist-style
"wars of national liberation"
This, to us, he said, is covert
armed aggression, guerrilla war
fare and subversion."
Meanwhile, he continued
general nuclear war and local
wars are still a threat to the
free world.
Ultimate Objective
"Our policy is not merely
defensive" the Secretary de-
clared. I'VE need not and are
not merely reacting to the Com
munist initiative. Our ultimate
objective is a peaceful world in
which every nation, large and
small, is free to determine its
own destiny. To this end we
shall continue our efforts to
achieve a safeguarded system
Of disarmament or arms re-
duction.
But, we shall not hesitate
to take up arms to defend
freedom and our own vital
interests.
"We are resolved to continue
the struggle in all it's forms
until such time as the Com
munist leaders, both Soviet and
Chinese, are convinced that
their aggressive policies, mott
waited by their drive to COM

Doninicuns Cheer
Deposing Of Junta
Rodriguez,
BuIoguer
Both Out

SANTO DOMINGO. Jan. 10
(AP).-The Dominican Repub-
lie exulted wildly today over
restoration of civilian govern
ment in a counter-coup that
formally ouSted President Joa-
quin Balaguer and imprisoned
the Strongman who had i'm
posed military rule.
"Balaguer boo boo, Balaguer
boo boo," people chanted in
the streets, to rhythmic whis-
ting and hand-clapping.
Cars piled high with 'iders
honked the beat and blocked
traffic on the main street, El
Conde, which only "a hours
before was grimly silent and
nearly deserted except for
armed patrols.
People Rugged each other,
stores reopened and carnival
air reigned in celebration of
the quick fall of the junta
imposed Tuesday night by Maj.
Gen. Pedro Rodriguez Echavar-
ria, the armed forces COM
mander.
Jailed by Own Officers
The generals own officers
executed the counter-coup last
night and jailed him.
Rafael Bonnelly, a 57-year-
old lawyer professor who has
been active in the National
Civic Union, became the new
president, as he had been
scheduled to before Tuesdays
military takeover.
Mr.. Bonnelly was sworn in
almost exactly 48 hours after
he and three other members
OF an all-clVlllan, state council
were led out of the National
Palace as prisoners of Gen.
Rodriguez Echavarria and a
military-civilian junta was in
stalled in the councils place.
1t was two months ago that
the capital celebrated the re-
Ipublic's liberation from the
Trujillo dynasty in a coup led
by Rodriguez Echavarria. Now
he is a prisoner.
Successor Not Decided
There was no immediate an
nouncement about what would
be done with the imprisoned
general, an Air Force veteran,
or who would replace him as
the armed forces commander.
Army Col. Victor Elvy Vinas
Roman, SO, subsecretary of the,
armed forces, temporarily took

troops massacred 10 Roman
Catholic missionaries and an
undetermined number of Afri-
can civilians on New Years
Day. The troops were in a
command once loyal to pro-
Communist Antoine Gizenga,
the recently deposed Deputy
Premier.
U. N. reports from Stanley
vile indicate that Mr.. Gizenga
is still in his riverside mansion
there under guard by central
government troops.
Reliable sources said the
United Nations has recommen-
ded that Mr.. Gizenga be
brought here to remove him
from the tense Stanleyville area
in case there is any further
trouble with GizengiSt soldiers.
U. N. headquarters here said
Col. Alphonse PakaSsa, nom
inally the commander Of forces
in the Eastern Congo, had re-
turned to Stanleyville from
North Katanga and been placed
under arrest by central gov
ernment forces. His arrest un-
doubtedly would be a step to
forestall any new Army upris-
ing in the wake of Mr.. Gizenga's S
downfall.
Allegiance Uncertain
Col. Pakassa is the COM
mander of the troops who mas
sacred 13 Italian airmen at
Kindu last November and ap-
parently also perpetrated the
Kongolo killings.
Where his loyaltieS now lie
with Mr.. Gizenga, the central
government or elsewhere-iS
not now known for certain.
But troop movements reported
in Kivu Province, lying between
North Katanga and Stanley
vile, have stirred fears that the
troops might be moving back
to defend their one-time leader.
A reconnaissance plane
spotted 200 to 300 Congolese
troops around the airport of
Kindu, ITS miles north of Kon-
COLO. which the U. N. evacuated
several days ago.
Evening star., 1962-01-19

the fall probably would start
late this afternoon and con-
tinue through the night and
tomorrow.
The 5-day forecast predicted
temperatures 4 to 8 degrees be-
low the normal high Of A and
low of 28. Slowly moderating
temperatures were predicted for
the first of the week.
Record Shows in Midwest
The storm that whipped
across 300 miles of Kentucky
in about five hours had left
record amounts of snow in
Missouri and Kansas, already
hit hard this winter. 1t had
reached Huntington, w. Va, at
II am.
Fifteen inches of new snow
fell at Wichita, Kans., leaving
II inches on the ground.
Kansas City was paralyzed
by IA inches of new snow and
a total cover of 81 inches. The
city has had 80 inches this
month, 8 more than in any
previous January.
This is the same powerhouse
that is moving toward this
area. ForecaSters were quick
to explain that this does not
mean Washington will receive
similar amounts, since differ
ent conditions prevail here.
District MObilizes
However, snow-fighting forces
were mobilizing at full strength
The District put 1000 men on
standby alert, ready to move
out with sandbag and sailing
trucks, and later with plows il
necessary.
The elementary schools and
kindergarten of Arling t o n
County decided to release pupils
at 2::30 pm. to get them home
ahead of the snow.
