A. Senate Labor subcornmit-

William r. Schnitzler Of the

No Price Increase

The D. C. Armory Board and
the Senators, Inc, declined
yesterday to consider any re-
quests for increases in the
prices Of products sold by Dis
trict Sportservice, Inc, at
the D. c. Stadium. But they
indicated they will consider
rises in prices after the con-
cessionaire has q new contract

The move yesterday appeared
to end some hopes that the
Armory Board and the Senators
might help end the vendors
strike by agreeing in advance
to a rise in prices.
Commissioner Walter N. To-
briner, one of the members of
the Armory Board, said how
ever, that the main criteria for
approving price changes at D.
C. Stadium was the prices
charged at similar stadiums.

Negro New Postmaster
After Los Angeles Row

The first Negro postmaster
OF q major city was sworn in at
Los Angeles yesterday, replac-
ing a man who retired after O
row with the administration
over merit promotion Of
Negroes in the Los Angeles
post office.
The new postmaster, Leslie
N. Shaw. a 40-year-old savings
and loan executive, was admin
istered the oath of office by
Senator Engle, Democrat Of
California. A racially mixed
audience of some 700 persons
witnessed the ceremony in the
county hall of administration.
Mr.. Shaw's predecessor, Otto
X. Olesen. is retiring after a
hassle with the Postmaster
Generals office over promotion
policy. Washington had re-
ceived complaints that Mr..
Olesen was passing over quail
ified Negro postal employees
when it came to merit promo
tions.
Mr.. Olesen's view was that
he had the final decision on
promotions. Eventually, the
Postmaster took away Mr..
Olesen's authority to make
promotions.
More than half the 10000
employees Mr.. Shaw will be in
charge of are either Negroes
or MeXican-Americans

NEW LONDON. Conn. April
16 The submarine Navy paid
its last respects to its ship
mates Of the USS Thresher
here yesterday.
The farewells were said with
dignity and grace - but not
without tears. About 300 rela-
tives Of the 129 who died in
Thresher last Wednesday were
on hand for the 45-minute
memorial service at the New
London submarine base theater.
Grief yesterday, like death
last week, was the great leveler.
There were no distinctions Of
creed or color, Of rank or sta
ton in life. Deep sorrow lined
the faces of the relatives -
especially the women.
Some took 1t harder than
others or showed 1t more.
Some cried their grief aloud;
some sobbed quietly; some kept
chin up and eyes somehow dry,
But all were cast down in sad
ness, and their sorrow trans
mitted itself to every other per-
son among the thousand In the
flower-decked theater.
Secretary Of the Navy Fred
Korth. Chief of Naval Opera
.tions George Anderson, and
Vice Admiral Hyman Rickover
came from Washington to
share the moment with the be-
reaved. Admiral Rickover. "fa-
ther" Of the atomic navy, ac-
companied one Of the Thresher
widows.
Represent Three Faiths
Catholics, Protestants and
Jews perished aboard Thresher,
and chaplains Of the three
faiths participated in the serv-
ices. The Jewish and Catholic
chaplians, veterans Of under
sea tours, alluded to their own
sense Of personal loss. In sub
marines - a close-knit branch
Of the Navy - everyone who
wears the dolphins is every
other submariner's shipmate.
The relatives filled the first
half Of the theater's or
chestra section. They sat quiet
ly. resignedly. most Of them ap-
parently still dulled by the
shock OF last Wednesdays trag-
edy. Even the children were
solemn.
Occasionally, as the service
proceeded. sob or stifled cry
would be heard. Strangely. dur
ing a minute Of silence mid
way through the memorial rite
not q sound - not even q
cough - broke the stiffness.
On the stage, a 25-voice choir
sat TO the right. and the five
chaplains officiating. two Cath
ole, two Protestant, one jew
ish. sat to the left. Across the
rear Of the stage was a display
of about 80 floral tributes, out

On Opinion Of
Sinking Cause

PORTSMOUTH, N. H., April
16 (AP)-The Navy Court OF
Inquiry hearing testimony con-
cerning the sinking Of the nu-
clear submarine Thresher re-
cessed today after saying it
could not continue without the
presence Of an unidentified
person.
The court said in a statement
it had reached a point in
deliberations beyond which 1t
cannot continue without the
presence Of a person not now
In Portsmouth"
The court added 1t will re-
convepe "as soon as possible, Z"
possibly later today.
The days only witness, the
admiral In charge Of rescue
operations for the first three
days after Thresher sank. told
the court he had formed an
opinion as to the cause Of the
sinking.
Can't Say It in Open
But Rear Admiral Lawson p.
Ramage added 1T Is nothing ]
care to state in open session. I"
Admiral Ramage is deputy
commander Of the Atlantic
Fleet submarine force. He re-
ceived the Congressional Medal
Of Honor In World War II.
He told the court neither he
nor other top officers in the
search and rescue phase was
aware until two days later that
Thresher had radioed informa-
ton about a minor difficulty
Admiral Ramage said he
learned of Thresher's radio
message on Friday after the
navigator Of the rescue shir
Skylark was transferred to the
admiral's ship to be brought
ashore to testify.
Trawler Sighted
Navigator 1t. q. e. James c.
Watson earlier told the court
the last clear message from
Thresher was: Experiencing
minor difficulty. Have positive
up angle. Attempting TO blow"
Admiral Ramage also said q
vessel. later identified as a
Norwegian fishing trawler, was
the only boat in the search area
other than Navy craft. He said
the fisherman flew q Norwegian
flag, was just passing the area
and had no bearing on the sink
ing or the search.
He said that even II he had
learned about Thresher's last
message it could not have
changed search and rescue
plans that went into immediate
effect.
"The initial evaluation, how
ever, would have been made
sooner" he said.
"ElectrOnic Emissions"
Admiral Ramage said the
submarine Sea Wolf which was
In the vicinity picked up an
"electronic emission" after the
sinking but was not able to
record 1t again.
Asked If this could have
meant there was life on the
slnken submarine, Admiral
Ramage replied: None OF the
signals equated with human
personnel"
He added there we're any
number Of noise sources under
water.
