Senator Mcclellan. Demo-
crat of Arkansas, said today
the Billie Sol Estes case has
revealed "a breakdown of the
whole system" for policing the
Nations vast farm aid program
The system, Senator Nc
Clellan added, has faults anC
has got to be strengthened"
He declared that this will
require, ''in my judgment, much
more rigid supervision in the
future than it has had in the
past"
Senator Mcclellan expressed
his views in emphatic tones as
two Agriculture Department
officials testified before the

mittee about delays in follow
ing up complaints about the

cotton deals.
The officials were Wilson
Tucker. deputy chief of the
Agriculture Departments Cot
ton Division, and Howard
Rooney. department attorney
Questioning Is Critical
Both officials came in for
critical questioning in connec-
ton with a complaint about the
Estes operation made by House
Democratic Leader Albert OF
Oklahoma regarding the trans
fer Of cotton allotments from
that State to Texas.
They visited the office of Mr.
Albert on May 81. 1861, and
were shown documents indicat-
ing that the transfer of cottor
allotments obtained by Este,
was illegal. However, it wa
brought out that the allotment!
were not finally cancelled unit
nearly a year later.
The documents included {

side agreement on the cottor
allotment transfers. Mr.. Rooney
testified that he said then that
if allotments were obtained or
the basis of such contracts
they would have to be Cancelled
Handling Discussed
Would you say now that il
was handled with diligence?'
Senator Mcclellan asked.
Il think so. under all the
circumstances" Mr.. Rooney
replied.
The officials said they i'm
mediately took steps to find
out what had happened in
Texas regarding the transfers.
What they discovered, Mr..
Rooney said, was that the farm

45-minute talk failed to yield
any progress on either problem
Just before the meeting, Mr..
Rusk said that if the Soviet
government continues to insist
on discussing only the problem
of how to reduce or eliminate
Western positions in Berlin,
then there is no basis for
serious negotiations in that
direction"
On disarmament he is re-
ported to have asked the Soviet
government through Mr.. Dob
rynin that it review its oppo-
sition to international inspec-
ton as a means of safeguarding
an arms cut agreement and
thus try to find some way to
take some steps to get on with
disarmament"
Sought Troop Removal
Earlier this week, Soviet Pre-
mier Khrushchev insisted in {
speech in Moscow that United
States, British and French
troops must be removed from
West Berlin. The real reason
the Western powers want inter
national inspection is to obtain
espionage information in the
Soviet Union, he said.
United States officials pri-
Vately see no prospect of break
ing the deadlock between the
United States position reflected
by Mr.. Rusk and the Soviet
policies stated by Mr.. Khrush-
chev. Nevertheless, as Mr.. Rusk
said yesterday, they expect
talks to continue on the ground
that both Moscow and Wash
ington prefer to maintain con-
facts on major world issues,
even If their efforts at agree
ment get nowhere.
Mr.. Rusk is due to go over
much the same ground with
Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei
A. Gromyko in Geneva toward
the end of next week. The two
are scheduled to go to Geneva
to sign final accords on the
naturalization of Laos.
Preliminary Meeting
State Department Press Off
Ger Lincoln White said Mr..
Rusk and Mr.. Dobrynin covered
Berlin and disarmament and
mentioned Laos. Mr.. White
said the meeting was prelimi-
nary to the Rusk- -Gromyko
conference.
Disarmament talks which be-
gan at Geneva last March in
a 17-nation conference are
scheduled to be resumed next
Monday after a long
recess. Mr.. Rusk declared at

They are Alfonso Arinos de
Melo Franco, the choice for
Foreign Minister. and Joao
Mangabeira, Minister of Mines
and Energy.
Delegate to u. N.
/ Mr.. Arinos is a member of
the right = of center National
Democratic Union and now
Brazil's chief delegate to the
United Nations. He served as
Foreign Minister under Presi-
dent Janio Quadros and guided
Mr.. Quadros' "neutralist" for
eign policy and go-slow policy
toward Cuba.
Mr.. Mangabeira is president
of the government-owred oil
monopoly, Petrobras.
For the key military posts,
Mr.. Brochado selected Gen.
Nelson de Melo as War Min
lister, Brig, Reinaldo Carvalho
Filho as Air Minister and Ad-
miral Pedro Paulo Suzano
Navy Minister. Gen Melo was
chief cabinet aide to former
President JuScelino KubitSchek

Party.
The governmental crisis be-
gan late last month when
Prime Minister Tancredo Neves
and his cabinet resigned TO be-
come eligible under the con-
stitution to run for reelection
to Parliament.
Nomination Rejected
Mr.. Goulart first nominated
Mr.. NeveS' Foreign Minister,
Francisco San Tiago Dantes,
to succeed him. But many
conservative Deputies consid-
cred Mr.. Dantas too friendly
toward Castro's Cuba and bis
nomination was rejected.
Mr.. Goulart then named a
conservative, Senate President
Auro Moura de Andrade, whom
the chamber approved. But
Mr.. Moura quit after only SO
hours in office in a dispute
with Mr.. Goulart over selection

Underlying the governmental
crisis was Mr.. Goulart's desire
to hold a plebiscite in October
on whether to return the ma
ton to a presidential system
like that of the United States.
Brazil had such a system be-
fore Mr.. Quadros resigned the
presidency last August. But

circumstances on June 3. 1861
of Henry H. Marshall, an Ag-
riculture Department official
in Texas who dealt particularly
with the Estes cotton allotment
deals.
With subcommittee inveSti-
gator as a witness, the Senators
produced a .22-caliber rifle
identical to the one involved in
the Marshall death. introduced
a death certificate, and a photo
graph of Mr.. Marshall'S body
showing five bullet wounds.
Possibility of Murder
Mr.. Marshall was found shot
to death on his ranch near
Franklin, Tex. An official ver-
dict Of suicide was returned and
the verdict was left unchanged
after a new inquiry within the
last two months produced evl-
dence which indicated that 1t
could have been murder.
Senator Mcclellan said the
subcommittee veered into the
Marshall death not to enter
any dramatics into its hearings
on the Estes scandal but only
to emphasize that in his death
the investigation lost a key wit
ness whose testimony would
have been invaluable in ex-
planning what actions we're
taken and what actions were
not taken in the Estes opera
tion.
Doubts Suicide
The Senator said after per-
sonally making a deinonstra-
ton with the rifle before the
hearing got under way that il
led to an obvious conclusion
Evening star., 1962-07-13

that no man could have COM
mitted suicide with a weapon of
that kind. shooting himself
five times and having to move
the bolt loading lever and fire
from an awkward position after
each shot.
The rifle measured 43 inches
in overall length and the sub
committee investigator, James
E. BusSey. said it was 29 inches
from the muzzle to the trigger.
The rifle. which holds a clip of
six bullets, requires a bolt &C
tion before each shot. The in
vestigating Senators noted that
the bolt action would have been
complicated and difficult be-
cause it would have had to I've
a reverse action if a man had
been using the rifle to kill him.
self.
Photographs Banned
For the subcommittee, Mr.
Bussey, a General Accounting
Office investigator on loan to
the subcommittee, made an in
quiry into Mr.. MarShalls death.
While Senator Mcclellan intro
duced into the hearing pictures
of Mr.. Marshall's body, he ruled
out any photographs of them.
The Senator said no evidence
has been uncovered so far link
ing the Marshall death to the
cotton operations under inves-
tigation by the subcommittee
He indicated also that the mat
ter would be left henceforth in
the hands of Texas officials
unless some additional evidence
should be uncovered in the sub
committees continuing inveSti-
cation Of the Estes case.

Baron Resigns Job
As 7 canister Official

Samuel Baron, the Teamster
Union official who claimed he
was slugged by James R. Hoffa,
has formally resigned his ST.
000-a-year job as a field direc-
tor for the unions Warehouse
mems Division.
Mr.. Baron, SO, said yesterday
that he submitted his formal
resignation so as to qualify for
pension plan benefits in lieu of
severance pay that he esti-
mated could run as high as
$4,000.
He said that under the pen
sion plan he is entitled to the
benefit whether his employment
was terminated by discharge or
resignation.
The incident that prompted
Mr.. Baron's resignation cur
rently is being investigated by
a District grand jury, which
held a brief session today.
Two TeamSters Union en-
ployes appeared. They were
identified as Thomas Flynn, a
Teamster vice-president, and
Richard C. Bell, an employee of
the unions Eastern conference
1t was not known whether
either man gave any testimony
during his short appearances
before the grand jury. Mr.. Bell
who had been ordered to ap-
pear earlier, had been granted
a delay by judge because he
had been confined to his home
with a case of flu.
The grand jury is trying to

counts of the reported scuffle
between Mr.. Baron and Team
ster President Hoffa last
May II.
Mr.. Baron swore out an as
Sault complaint against Mr..
Hoffa, but the misdemeanor
charge was dropped by the
Government because of con-
flicts in the accounts of what
happened.
Eight reluctant Teamstcr
Union witnesses were allowed
last week to refuse to testify
before the grand jury by a Dis
trict Court judge. They said
their testimony might tend to
incrminate them.
Mr.. Baron testified before
the grand jury early last week.

Renewal Plan to Retain
Light Industry Urged

A planning proposal that
would permit light commercial
and industrial uses to remain
in an upgraded residential area
in the Adams Morgan urban re-
newal project will be presented
to the public for the first time
next Tuesday.
The urban renewal plan pro-
posed for the area calls for re-
location of nine commercial
and light industrial firms from
the area. The firms have hired
planning conSultants and are
to present their alternate Sug-
gestions at an open meeting.
The meeting will start at 8
pm. in the Adams Elementary
School, Nineteenth and Cali
fornia streets NV.
Joseph Honick, executive di-
rector of the Adams Morgan
Light Commercial Institute,
said the plans were being pre-
sented at the open meeting be-
case 9Th project is of impor-
lance to every citizen in the
city" He continued:
The tremendous expense of
the program will have to be
shouldered by all.
Everyone in the city has an
obligation to know all the sides
of the story.
while all of the light in
dustrial uses have been planned
out of the area, neither the Ma
tional Capital Planning Com
mission nor the Redevelopment
Land Agency has made any
comprehensive economic survey
of these firms.
"TheSe agencies have no idea
at all of the economic or So
cial implications that will Ger
tainly result from their dis
placement"
The businessmen have in
vited RIA officials to speak at
the meeting.
Phil A. Doyle, RIA executive
director, said his organization
has studied the relocation
problem "in the general con-
text of the entire project"

He said the trouble in Poto-
mac developed before April
1860. when the council adopted
the regulations.
Mr.. Cahoon said the council,
nevertheless, is DESTROYS Of
evolving even higher standards
to prevent sewage problems.
Mr.. Bresler yesterday said
that Mrs. Cahoon was one of
the sellers of the Williamsburg
tract in Potomac, where prob
lens with septic systems have
been widespread.
He charged that the County
approved construction on the
tract even though its own Of
ficials had made tests indicat-
ing much of the soil would not
absorb effluent and therefore
was unfit for septic tanks.
Mr.. Cahoon replied that he
had Invested himself of all in
terest in the Williamsburg
tract before he assumed office
in 1858 and that the subdivi-
sion also was sanctioned before
then.
Press Is Called
This morning Mr.. Bresler
called a press conference and
produced a facsimile Of a deed
showing that Mr.. Cahoon last
fall sold three more acres ad-
joining the tract.
Mr.. .Cahoon acknowledged
the sale, but said that when
he made his original reply to
Mr.. Bresler's charges, he did
not consider the three acres
part of the Williamsburg tract.
Mr. Bresler also quoted r. w.
Koch, chief Of the county SAM
tation Department. as having
said that IS per cent of the
wells in Montgomery County
are contaminated.
In an interview last week,
Mr.. Koch denied ever having
made such a statement.
Mr.. Bresler said he will ar
range a meeting of all Repub-
lican candidates later this week
to determine whether legal or
ether action may be started
to remedy the problems in

He also asserted that David

nounced as IAN example of
TaweSism at its lowest"
At the same time, Frank

didate for Governor, accused
the administration of Gov.

intended to safeguard water
from wells.
Houses Approved
Houses have been approved
for areas evidently unsuited
for septic tanks. When a per-
son purchases a home in Mary

But, as usual, Mr.. Tawes
