SWEETNESS AND LlGHT—Chicago.—Three potential top candidates for the
Democratic presidential nomination are all smiles here as they joke with Chi
cago’s Mayor Richard J. Daley at the party’s National Committee meeting. From
left are Gov. Averell Harriman of New York, Adlai Stevenson, a definite candi
date, and Senator Estes Kefauver of Ten nessee.—AP Wirephoto.
KEFAUVER
Continued From First Page
with a smile, “I didn’t have any
in 1952.” He was runnerup that
year to Mr. Stevenson lor the
presidential nomination.
Promises of Support
He said. too. that he had prom-,
lses of more financial support
than he received in his fight
for the nomination in 1952. At
that time he had about 5200.-
000. which he admitted, was not
nearly enough.
Nor will Senator Kafauver be
backward about entering presi
dential-preference primaries. He
seemed quite willing to take ,
front-running Mr. Stevenson on;
in Minnesota, the one primary
State which Mr. Stevenson has
announced he will enter.
In answer to questions, he said
he was interested, too, in going
into the Ohio primary, where
he did very well—against the
State Democratic organization
in 1952. As for New Hampshire.j
where he defeated former Presl-,
dent Truman, Senator Kefauver
said, with a broad grin: “New
Hampshire is one of my very
favorite State*.”
First State to Vote
It was the first State to hold;
» presidential primary in 1952,:
and Senator Kefauver’* victory
there gave him a great boost,
Next year, New Hampshire’s pri
mary also comes first, in March.
Xr. Kefauver added that Wis
nsin and California also were
“favorite States” with him# Hfjj
won the 1952 primaries in both ]
of them, too. California Demo-
leaders have asked Mr. 1
venson to enter their State.
Senator Kefauver admitted he 1
had talked with Michael DiSalle 1
of Ohio, one-time OPA adminis
trator, with a view to having him
t«fc» an important place in Sen
ator Kefauver’* pre-convention
campaign—if he runs.
Apparently Net Worried
The Tennessean did not ap-i

for Mr. Stevenson as a former

Kefauver commented.
Mr. Kefauver firmly denied he,
had been offered a vice presi
dential nomination by the Stev

always been opposed to
for Vice President and that was
his attitude now. There has
been speculation that the Demo

be Stevenson and Kefauver next '
year.
“Would a firm offer make a 1
difference,” a reporter asked.
• You talk like a businessman,”; 1
;Mr. Kefauver responded, amid
laughter. '

u-ost issues in the 1956 campaign i
against the Republicans the 1

Two Priests I
Freed by Reds
HONG KONG, Nov. 19 Uf), — j
Two Roman Catholic priests •
crossed the Bamboo Curtain to '
freedom today.
The priests are Fathers Justin ,
Garvey. 40, of Union City, N. J„
and Marcellus White, 47, of,
Waltham, Maas. Both appeared
to be in good condition when ,
they crossed to Hong Kong. ,
The Red Chinese announced i
Thursday they were releasing
the two priests and Mrs. Homer :
B. Bradshaw, a Presbyterian
medical missionary with head- i
quarters in New York. Mrs. ]
Bradshaw, whose ailing husband i
is still held by the Chinese, did i
not arrive with the priests but i
is expected tomorrow. The Brad
shaws’ home is in Pittsburgh, |
Pa. ii
The priests arrived on the j
noon train from Canton, the |
only daily train reaching the
Hong Kong border.
The priests are missionaries
of the Passionist order. Father
Garvey was imprisoned In De- -
cember, 1951, and Father White >
in February, 1952. 1

Egypt Awaiting
U. N. Reply on Plan
CAIRO, Egypt, Nov. 19 (JP).—
Egyptian officials said today they
still were awaiting U. N. response
to Egyptian counterproposals for
easing tension along the Israell-
Egyptlan border in the El Aujs
area.
Officials said they handed
their proposals to U. N. Chief
Truce Supervisor Gen. Edson L.
M. Burns last week when he pre
sented the plan—drawn by U. N.
Secretary-General Dag Hammar
ikjold and himself.
The Egyptian counterplan is
understood to call for marking
all three sides of the El Auja
demilitarized triangle and with
drawal of Israeli police as well
as regular army troops from the
area.
The Egyptians frequently have:
charged the Israelis kept troops
•disguised as police in the area
where Jewish immigrants have
settled.
Israel announced yesterday its!
acceptance of the U. N. plan. .
Pre-Draft Risks
|To Be Ruled Out
By the Associated Press
I A new military policy alms at
weeding out security risks before
they are drafted into the Army,
thus sparing them the stigma of
a less than honorable discharge.
1 The new directive from Secre
tary of Defense Wilson came yes
terday in the midst of a sharply
critical Senate investigation of
the Army security program for
uniformed personnel.
Senator Hennings. Democrat
of Missouri, said the inquiry by
his Senate Subcommittee on
Constitutional rights “probably
had something to do” with the
new procedure.
j Though Senator Hennings said
the directive might not go quite
far enough, he. hailed it as a
move to "restore constitutional
rights to large numbers who un- j
der present regulations would
receive security risk discharges.”!
Wilson Bid to Testify
; Mr. Wilson has been invited
;to testify before the subcom
mittee Monday.
The new directive orders the
armed services to make security
investigations of draftees before,
their induction. Instead of after
ward as at present. It directs
that a man shall be taken Into
iservlce unless this would be:
■clearly inconsistent with national
•security.
Such a draftee would have the
right to an honorable discharge
if his conduct in two years of
active duty merits one.
Anyone rejected on the basis
of a pre-induction investigation
would, as Senator Hennings
phrased it, “be released to
• civilian life without any mark
or stigma indicating the basis
on which he was found unsuit-'
able.”
The old rule required that,
servicemen judged security risks
be given a “general discharge
under honorable conditions” or
some other less than honorable
discharge at the end of their
service.
Sees Violation of Rights
“The Defense Department,"
Senator Hennings said, "never
explained by what authority
they inducted an man and then
blackened his reputation for ac
tivities and associations prior to
service.”
The new directive doe* provide
that where derogatory informa
tion Is developed after induction
concerning a man’s prior ac
tivities and associations, he still
may be given controlled military
duties and receive a security
risk discharge.
Senator Hennings said “this
seems to me to be a violation of;
his constitutional rights—for it !
destroys his reputation and ln-j
terferes with his livelihood with
out due process of law.”
The subcommittee yesterday!
heard witnesses critical of the
old method, among them former
soldiers who received less than
honorable discharges.

D. C. Transit Situation
'ls a Mess/ Carr Says
Washington’s transit problem remained today In what Presi
dent Edward R. Carr of the Board of Trade described as “a
mess.”
The statement was made at a Board of Trade membership
luncheon yesterday In the Mayflower Hotel.
• The meeting heard the Public Utilities Commission an-
nouncement that no group has l
yet placed before the commis
sion an acceptable plan to take
over the transit operations in
Washington when the Capital
Transit Co.’s franchise expires
next August 14. The Com
missioners said prospects “bid
fair” that one of the present
applicants will make the grade.
Despite his vigorous phrase.
Mr. Carr said he is optimistic
that a “solid and acceptable
proposal will be developed.”
He said Board of Trade lead
ers have been discussing their
proposals with at least three of
the groups that have submitted
plans. He added that there are
other groups considering mak
ing proposals to the utilities
commission. It was reported
there are two such groups.
The Board of Trade position,
as outlined by Mr. Carr is this:
First, it favors, and believes
feasible, continued operation of
the transit facility as a private
enterprise.
But, if no acceptable proposal
is adopted, then obviously there,
will have to be Government op
eration. In this event, the board
favors a transit authority fi
nanced by revenue bonds and op
erated as nearly as possible as a
private business.
Wolfson Influences Talk *
i The board members discussed
and voted down a proposal that
Congress be told it would be in
the best Interest of Washington
iif the cancellation of the Capital
•Transit Co. franchise was re
scinded.
Louis E. Wolfson, Florida fin
ancier who Is board chairman of
Capital Transit, was not present
in the flesh. But. like Banquo’s
ghost, he had a major role in
the meeting.
Donald A. McCormack, chair
man of the board's committee
on transit lines, warned that
, approval of such a motion favor
ing rescinding the franchise can
cellation would serve to drive]
away those who have proposed
supplying the transit service.
“Then.” he added, “we would
have to deal with Mr. Wolfson.
a high-priced individual when
It comes to selling his assets.”
Mr. Carr suggested that before
such a move is adopted, there
• should be some Indication
Capital Transit “wants to come
iback into the picture,” and it
should be ascertained whether
Mr. Wolfson Is Interested In
• coming back here. He feared
adoption of the motion would
"muddy up the water.”
Later he asserted that the sit
uation Is “a hell of a mess.”
Attorney Emmet Sheehan,
who made the motion to ask
Congress to rescind the franchise
! cancellation, said the act of
; Congress was inspired by a feud
’between one of the utilities com
i mission members and Mr.
Wolfson.

The 20-year-old daughter
of a Wyoming cattle rancher Is

But Miss Jean Wallop of Big;

"There wouldn't be a lot of j

has been a frequent escort of
: Princess Margaret.
“We agreed there would be
the announcement, and nothing
else." said Miss Wallop, reached |

Robert M. Weston, commission
member who had been assailed
jby Mr. Wolfson, denied there
had been any animus against
Mr. Wolfson. He said the Wolf
son company had been given
the highest fare in the country,
with the exception of Chicago.
He said the commission had
, made attempts to “appease” Mr
Wolfson and cited the “memo
randum of understanding” be
tween the commission and the
company of more than a year
• ago. But. he said, Mr. Wolfson
’ would not be appeased.
I E. Cleveland Giddings, Capi
• tal Transit vice president, on
the question of whether Capital
i Transit would want to continue
I in business, said. "When you’re
kicked out of jail, you don’t want
to come In again.”
He defended Mr. Wolfson. He
• said people forget that the com
pany has a board of directors
which formulates policy and in
cludes a number of respected
[ Washington citizens. Decisions
? were reached by that group, he
isaid.
1 The question had been raised
whether the company might
continue its Maryland operations.
• Mr. Giddings said there has been
no need for the company to
make up its mind on that ques
• tion immediately. He added that
everything “will come out nice!
j and smoothly for Capital Transit
in August.”
It is not regarded as likely
that the company will maintain
its Maryland bus lines.
Hayes Reads Statement
Chairman George E. C. Hayes
of the utilities commission read
• the commission's statement on
1 the postponement of selection!
of a group to operate the transit
service.
“It is no# perfectly apparent.” (
he said, “that the requests of
some of the applicants for addi
! tional time, and the time neces
: sary for a proper appraisal of
1 the data before us, leave no al
ternative but the carrying for-
I ward of the date of decision.
“The desirability of having
' this a venture qf private enter
prise is recognized by this com
' mission and. because of what
‘ we conceive of our obligation in
• this regard, we are making strict
original requirements of all ap
plicants and the working out of

t] He said all procedural details;
I should be Ironed out by the
time Congress reconvenes. He
pointed out that legislation must

that the successful applicant

He added that it is fair to

Quarles Admits Concern
Over Radar Jamming
By JOHN V. HORNER
Air Force Secretary Quarles indicated yesterday that the
! United States is concerned over the possibility that enemy jam
. ming devices could limit the usefulness of the radar defense screen.
He said, however, that radar is by no means obsolete and
j hinted that steps already are being taken to offset the jamming.
In a question-and-answer period after an address to the
! National Press Club, Mr. Quarles
• conceded that radar is subject to
! countermeasures. This followed
disclosure yesterday that a sur
prise attack by atomic bombers
! in “Operation Sagebrush” re
pealed serious limitations to the
Nation’s radar warning system.
In that exercise, new "enemy”
jamming devices rendered pow
erless most of the defending ra-
J'fdar instruments so they were
, unable to detect the air raiders
; until too late.
,!• “This is a continuing game—
j countermeasures and counter
countermeasures.” the Secretary
saj,d.
“We must be alert but it
I would be a tremenrous mistake]
'to assure that radar is on the
way out. Very much to the con
trary Is true.”
’ The Secretary also said he saw
merit in the proposal of Atomic
Energy Commissioner Thomas
E. Murray for a meeting “at
the atomic summit” in the Pa
cific. where world leaders could

The proposal, he said, is along
• the line of getting all nations, as
well as the United States, to un
derstand better the atomic and
thermonuclear weapons.
In his prepared address, which
reportedly was revised at the last
minute at the insistence of the
State Department, Mr. Quarles
restated the administration view
that the world may have reached
a deadlock in which atomic
weapons impose a peace more
reliable than the peace it has
sought to achieve heretofore.
“As long as both sides have
these terrible weapons and the;
means of delivering them.” he,
said, “there is no way for one
side to initiate total war without!
disaster to itself.
“No matter which side decided
to start total war. destruction
would be so tremendous and so
general that no one could dream
of victory.”

McClellan Gets
Request for
Data on Cross
Br the Auociated Free*
The Justice Department ha*
asked the Senate Investigations
Subcommittee for any evidence
it may have indicating possible
violation of Federal law by
Chairman Hugh W. Cross of the
Interstate Commerce Commis
sion.
A department spokesman said
last night the request was con
tained in a letter to Senator
McClellan, Democrat of Arkan
sas, chairman of the subcommit
tee, from Warren Olney HL
chief of the department’s crim
inal division.
The spokesman quoted the
latter as telling the subcom
mittee “If it had any evidence
of anything in violation of Fed
eral law” the department wants
it “for consideration.”
Cross Calls It ‘lndiscretion’
After Mr. Cross had been
questioned by the subcommittee
at a closed-door hearing Tues
day, Informed sources told re
porters that Mr. Cross had testi
fied his talks with two railroad
heads about a disputed contract
for bus service between Chicago
railway terminals amounted to
“an Indiscretion.”
Although Mr. Cross was re
ported to have given the Whit#
House a report on the inquiry.
Presidential Secretary James C.
Hagerty said last night he knows
nothing about the matter
The contract in question was
awarded to Railroad Transfer
Service. Inc. It had formerly
been held by the A. C. Parmalee
Co.
Republicans Get Summary.
Republican members of the in
vestigations subcommittee who
were absent when Mr. Cross was
questioned received a telegram
from James N. Juliana, minority
counsel to the group, summariz
ing the ICC chairman's testi
mony.
The telegram—which a Repub
lican source made available to
reporters—said Mr. Cross “ad
mitted indiscretion in contact
ing two railroad presidents but
denied soliciting favorable con
sideration” of the successful
contract bid.
Industry Dispersion
Plan Jettisoned
By th* A*socuted Presg
The Pentagon has decided it
would be impractical to insist on
maximum dispersal of defense
plants.
Long discussed as a possible*
national policy, dispersal on a
hard-and-fast basis was rejected
yesterday in a Defense Depart
ment, directive
The department said the ob
jective should be to "avoid th#
tendency toward over-concentra
jtion” of Critical defense facil
, ities in target areas. But it also
noted such “obstacles to maxi
mum dispersal” as cost, social
dislocation in industrial areas
and possible delay in vital pro
duction.
Dispersal will be a “prime con
sideration” in selecting sites for
new defense plants, the directive
said but it recommended that
existing industries be permitted
to add to present plants when
additions are relatively minor.
