Abe|'s Defense LAWYER
Had Key Role in Swap

pardon attorney, indicating
that Col. Abels sentence might
be committed under proper
circumstances"
When the negotiations neared
the successful point President
Kennedy signed a commuta-
ton for Col. Abel and dis
patched it to the Federal pen
Iitentiary in Atlanta, the COM
mutation to become effective
when the swap of prisoners &C.
tually took place.
Attorney General Kennedy
was notified of the success Of
the deal just before he left
Tokyo en- route to Hong Kong
where he was due today.
Officials emphasized that
Mr.. Donovan was acting as a
conscientious lawyer should, in
his role of court-appointed de-
tense lawyer. They also pointed
out that in view of the inter-
national implications he kept
the Federal Government fully
informed.
During World War II Mr..
Donovan, As, was general coun-
sci for the hush-hush Office
of Strategic Service. After the
war he was on the United
States legal staff at the MUIR
emberg war crime trials. He
is now a member of the New
York law firm of Waters &
Donovan.
Donovan Donated Fee
For his work as counsel for
Col. Abel, Mr.. Donovan received
a fee of $4,000 from Col. Abels
family, who sent the money via
East Germany.
Later, Mr.. Donovan an
nounced he was donating his
fee to three American univer-
sities-.$5,0O0 to Fordham Uni
versity and $4,000 to the Har-
ward Law School, both of which
he attended, and $4,000 to
Columbia Law School, which
two of his court-appointed as
sistants in the case attended.
There is more to practicing
law than making money" said
Mr.. Donovan, adding:
1T is my belief that in a
land of plenty such as the
United States the most effec-
tive means of combating totali-
tarianism lies in the further
ance of sound moral training
and a thorough understanding
of justice under the law. In
that belief I am donating the
$4,000 to these three univer-
sites"

talk with Gen. Lucius D. Clay,
President Kennedy's envoy in
Berlin.
From Berlin, Capt. Powers
flew to Wiesbaden, the Air
Forces headquarters base in
Europe. Here the highest Sc
curity again was maintained.
Reporters and photographers
were barred from the base,
which swarmed with Air Force
security forces and FBI agents.
Capt. Powers changed to an
other Air Force plane. 1t was
believed to have left for Wash
ington between $50 and 10
am. 4:30 to S am. EST but
the Air Force declined to con-
firm or to give any details.
West Berlin police were given
strict orders by the United
States provost marshal that
they were not to talk about
the exchange they witnessed
at the bridge.
Glienicke Bridge is an old
iron girder bridge across an
arm of the River Havel in the
West Berlin suburb Of Wansee.
It is not very wide, Just enough
for two lanes of traffic.
It carries the Potsdamer-
chaussee, the highway leading
to Potsdam, just outside Berlin.
At Potsdam are the offices
of the allied military missions
to the Soviet military head
quarters in East Germany.
Members of these missions are
among the few people allowed
by the Communists to use the
bridge.
Apart from a red and white
frontier barrier, the border at
this point is sealed by a double
barbed wire fence on the Com
munist side.
At some earlier period OF
postwar Berlin history the
Communists named the
bridge 1.-THE Bridge of Unity"
because it was the crossing
point for missions between
East and West.
Mr.. Pryor was met at Check
point Charlie by his parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. Willard H. Pryor,
Of Ann Arbor, Mich.
Young Pryor had been study
ing at the Free University in
West Berlin on a grant from
the Ford Foundation. He was
writing a study of economic
relations among the Commu-
mist states, and often went to
East Berlin to do research.
His parents hired a West
Berlin lawyer authorized to
practice in East Berlin, but
there was no indication that
he had been able to accomplish
much. A Communist official
towards the end of last year
referred to an alleged spy who
passed as a research scholar,
out did not mention Mr.. Pryor
BY name. Mr.. Pryor apparently
was never brought to trial.
In New York City, webs
news said it had received a
message from Mr.. Pryor's twin
brother, Willard Pryor of Man.
haitian, saying that the father
reported the freed student
ooks sharp - physically and
mentally" and is "all right"
An interesting sidelight in
Inc Pryor case was that he
was nominally a prisoner of
he Communists German
Democratic Republic" not of
he SoVietS themselves.
The Soviets like to represent
he CDR" as an independent
nation. But in important mat
,erS the Russians are quick to
make it clear that they are
'unning the show.
There was a similar instance
asst october when United
States tanks drew up to the
Nriedrichstrasse crossing point.
Soviet tanks and not East Ger
nan tanks were brought up to
ace them.

MOSCOW, Feb. 10 <AP).-
The Soviet Union said today
one of the reasons U-2 Pilot
Francis Gary Powers was re-
leased was a desire to improve
relations with the United
States.
A brief announcement on
Moscow radio at 4 pm. g am.
EST also said Capt. Powers
had been released in response
to pleas from his relatives.
The announcement said the
decision to release Capt. Powers
was made by the Presidium of
the Supreme Soviet. The Pre-
sidium is the body which acts
for the Supreme Soviet, or Par
Lament, when it is in recess.
No Mention of Abel
The announcement made no
mention Of Col. Rudolf Abel,
the Soviet spy who was ex-
changed for Capt. Powers.
The text Of the announce
ment:
THE Presidium of the Su-
preme Soviet, having consid-
cred the plea of the relatives
of Francis Gary Powers, the
American pilot sentenced in
the USSR, and taking into con-
sideration this acknowledge
iment of having committed the
most severe crime, and also be-
ing guided by the desire for an
improvement in relations be-
tween the USSR and the USA
has adopted a decision giving
mercy to Powers and handing
him over to American author
tiles"
United States Ambassador
Llewellyn Thompson earlier
would say only that he had
been asked ito refer all in
quiries to the (State) Depart
ment."
"Quite a Story"
Then, with a chuckle, he
added: quite q story, isn't it?"
The United States Embassy
has been pressing for the .e-
lease of Capt. Powers ever since
he was sentenced in Moscow's
Hall of Columns August 10,
1860.
After the sentencing, Capt.
Powers was whisked away to
a prison in Vladimir, an ancient
town about ITO miles northeast
of Moscow. He has repeatedly
been weaving baskets in the
prisons workshop.
OF his 10-year term, three
years were to have been served
in a maximum security prison.
The remainder of the term was
to have been carried out at a
work camp.

Mrs. Abel did appeal to Presi-

Bridges says, that l would be called

Bridges, incidentally, did his own
swimming in that series, in which he
portrays Mike Nelson, former Navy
frogman turned underwater investi-
gator.
II was cast for that role as an
actor, of course" Bridges says. II
had done some skin diving but had
never used any special equipment. But
I learned to work under water during
the actual shooting of the Sea Hunt
episodes"
Bridges, who is now an excellent
swimmer, describes himself as having
been "a good Sunday" swimmer when
the series was started.
Last Easter he and Miss Clooney
were out at Marineland of the Pacific
to do the first of what apparently are
a series of annual underwater specials.
THAT first one was called Marine
land Circus" Bridges recalls. 1.-THE
public reception was very favorable.
THE cast of thousands, of course,
are the trained porpoises, whales, sea
lions and walruses as well as 5000 sea

Federal Funds Blocked
By Junk Mail Protest

Senator John j. Williams
Republican of Delaware, today
blocked Senate action on q
resolution to continue the
salaries and expenses of nearly
all Government agencies for
September, but Senate leaders
expect to pass it before the
end of August.
The resolution is essential
to meet Government payrolls
because more than half of the
annual appropriations bills
which should have passed by
July are still pending in
Congress.
Senator Williams was pro-
testing against continuation of
the law which allows members
of Congress to send junk mail
to their constituents under the
franking privilege, addressed
only to the occupant"
The Senate added to the
legislative appropriation bill
three weeks ago an amendment
under which all letters sent
out by members of Congress
without postage must have a
name and address. The legiS-
lative bill is still tied up in
conference.
Senator Williams wants the
continuing resolution for Sep
tember to carry the same re-
quiremenG. He said this would
prevent members from sending
Evening star., 1962-08-29

out such mail in connection
with this years election.
Senate leaders are resisting
the amendment because it
might tie up the continuing
resolution in conference and
result in payless pay days in
September.
Senator PaStore, Democrat
of Rhode Island, told Senator
Williams that House and Sen
ate conferees will meet tomor-
row afternoon to try to settle
the issue in the legislative
money bill.
The House outma1euvered
the Senate by getting the Junk
mail privilege in an appropria-
ton bill on the closing night
of the session last year, by
final action and then
adjourning. This left the Sen
ate no alternative but to &C.
cept the House action.

Some patients rushed from
surgery, still were unconscious,
bottles of blood plasma sus-
pended above their stretchers.
A Veterans Administration
hospital 2 miles to the east
also was threatened, but none
Of the 400 patients had to be
evacuated.
The flames threatened sew
eral oil fields. but no wells have
caught fire, officials said. They
said six oil storage tanks were
destroyed.
Four homes and approxi-
mately 26 lesser structures also
were destroyed. the fire de-

Tornado Strikes Town
Hit by 1857 Hurricane

| CAMERON, La, Aug. 2!
(AP).-A tornado struck thi'
Louisiana coastal town late las
night. causing at least two
fatalities. Authorities fear tht
death toll may go higher.
Sheriff's deputies formed
search parties to roam through
debris, although heavy rains
hampered rescue operations. AT
least so persons were reported
injured.

nearly 500 persons died in Hur-
ricane Audrey in I957-were
flooded. The water was as high
as the floorboard of a car, but

Nearly eight inches of rain

hour period. 1t continued to
rain at daybreak.
Cameron, which has a popu-
lation Of about $500, is on the
marshy Gulf Coast in extreme
Southwest Louisiana. It has
been rebuilt since the 1857 hur-
ricane.
A man identified as Harold
Stewart suffered a fatal heart
attack shortly after being
evacuated from his home to
the Cameron Parish County
Courthouse. An unidentified
woman was killed and deputies

house.
The big lake community
north Of Cameron was reported
flooded and some low lying
sections Of Lake Charles-40
miles north of here-were un-
der water.
