Eisenhower Grants
Authority to Help
Senators in Search
By JAMES Y. NEWTON
The select Senate committee
looking: into labor union and
management malpractices was
given a powerful new investi
gating weapon today in the form
of authority to examine any Fed
eral tax returns for the years
1945 to 1957.
President Eisenhower, the
White House announced, has
Beck Soys Union Loaned Him $300,000
to $400,000. Page A-10
signed an order giving the com
mittee power to look over Federal
income, estate, gift, excess profits,
and "certain other returns.”
The order, in line with past
practice of granting such author
ity to certain Congressional in
vestigating committees, states
that information the committee
obtains from the returns must
be kept confidential except that
it "may report information per
tinent to its investigation to the
Senate.”
To Reach Management
Committee Counsel Robert F.
Kennedy said, meanwhile, the
group’s broad inquiry soon will
reach certain management prac
tices as well as union operations
He said that alleged payments
of $20,000 of Teamsters' Union
funds into the bank account of
Nathan W. Shefferman. Chicago
employer consultant, “will lead
into certain companies.'' Mr.
Kennedy declined to elaborate on
the subject pending later hear
ings. nor would he identify the
companies.
Frank W. Brewster, president
of the 11-State Western Confer
ence of Teamsters, who will re
turn as a witness when the com
mittee's hearing on the Port
land (Oreg i vice scandals are
resumed tomorrow, was asked
about the payments to Mr
Shefferman last Friday and he
was unable to explain them
May Wind Up Tomorrow
The select eight-senator com
mittee. which is looking into
wrongdoing in labor and man
agement on a Nation-wide scale,
hopes to wind up tomorrow its
investigation of an alleged con
spiracy of Teamsters Union of
ficials, mobsters and certain
public officials to control vice
operations in Portland.
The payments to Mr. Sheffer
man, Mr. Kennedy said, have
nothing to do with the Portland
situation. The Chicagoan, ac
cording to Brewster, is a friend
of Teamsters President Dave
Beck and he will be called as
a witness some weeks hence when
Mr. Beck is asked by the com
mittee to explain his financial
operations in another series of
hearings.
Meanwhile, a Federal District
Court grand jury was expected
to complete today its investiga
tion of bribery charges against
James R. Hoffa, powerful Mid
west vice president of the Team
sters.
Hoffa is free on $25,000 bond
charged with offering John Cye
Cheasty. New York lawyer, $lB,-
000 to get a job on Mr. Ken
nedy’s staff and feed Hoffa in
formation on what the special
committee was doing.
Interview on TV
Mr. Beck said in a television
interview at Tacoma., Wash
yesterday that he intends to ask
Hoffa about the charges. He said
he hadn’t spoken to Hoffa. gen
erally regarded as second in com
mand of the Nation's largest
union, since his arrest here last
Wednesday night.
In reference to Hoffa. Mr. Beck
said "I am not going to turn my
back on any man . . . until he
has his day in court.”

Free Nations Must Fight;
Red Peril, Truman Says
Believes Eisenhower Leadership Can \
Unite West Against Russian Boldness
Copyright 1957 |
By HARRY S. TRUMAN
I think the time has come for the free nations of the world ;
to close ranks to combat resurgent Russian expansionism in the j
face of the brutal revival of Stalinism.
We need bold and decisive moves to make more effective ,
our grand strategy of common security.
Our preoccupation with recent Middle East events has
tended to obscure the existence
of explosive conditions in other
strategic areas of the world.
The more we'‘deal with the
Russians, the more we realize
that they cannot or will not
change their determination to
dominate the world. It would be
sheer folly for us to assume that
we can look to anyone other
than our alliance of free nations
for our security.
The meeting this week at
Bermuda between the President
ana the British Prime Minister
1 hope will bring about the
restoration of British-Ameriean
solidarity based on mutual
understanding and closer co
operation.
It is equally important that
we also achieve the fullest un
derstanding and co-operation
with the French. I was glad to
see the President take the first
step in that direction with

The SS Perama was drifting in
the Gulf of Mexico today after
its crew of 43 abandoned the
tanker following two explosions
and flic.
A message from a Coast Guard
PoM plane at the scene relayed
to Coast Guard headquarters in
Miami indicated the Perama
could remain afloat only six to
eight hours. The ship carried a
cargo of soybean oil.
The captains of the Perama.
the SS Claiborne and the SS
Esso Bermuda agreed the vessel
could not be saved, the Coast
Guard said.
The crew took to two lifeboats
after two violent explosions, fol
lowed by fire, rocked the tanker
early this morning.
A report to the Coast Guard
said the mam deck was awash
and the Perama had sunk 3 feet
since the crew abandoned ship.
The SS Claiborne took the
Perama in tow at 10:05 a.m . but
half an hour later the tow line
parted and the tanker drifted
helplessly about 190 miles west
southwest of Tampa, the Coast
Guard reported.
The Perama, en route from
Thames Haven. England, to Gal

445 feet long, of 7,236 gross tons.
It was of Liberian registry, with

Sister of Only Survivor in Crash
In Philippines Gets News Here

By ARNALDO OTERO
The sister of the only survivor
in the Cebu Island plane crash
yesterday which took the life
of Philippine President Ramon
Magsaysay and 25 others aboard
i received the news here in Wash

! She is Betty Mata, 25, a grad

Narrow Escape from Disaster
But it is my judgment that
the meeting at Bermuda should
'be followed by consultations
| with our friends and allies
everywhere. We should do this
foe two reasons: 1
First, we need to restore the
machinery of continuous, close
consultation so that we do not
risk again the dangers of divi
sion among us.
Second, we need constantly
to review and reappraise our
methods and measures for deal
ing with international com
munism.
I hate to think how narrow
was our escape from disaster in
tne Middle East when we be
came separated from our allies. (
However, we have gained a little
time there, and United Nations
emergency forces are on patrol.
The Russians have been duly
warned. But, as yet, we have
solved nothing fundamental, and
the threat of war still remains
Until the causes that led to
the recent crisis are promptly
and wisely dealt with, there will
oe no peace in the Near East or
elsewhere around the world.

Body of Philippines
President Found
In Plane Wreckage
MANILA, Mar. 18 (A I ).—Vice
President Carlos P. Garcia took
over the reins of government to
day as the Philippine nation and
the free world mourned the
plane-crash death of President
Ramon Magsaysay.
Mr. Garcia flew in from the
SEATO conference in Australia
several hours after Mr. Magsay
say's charred body was found in
the wreckage of his plane on a
Cebu Island mountainside.
The 60-year-old Vice President
took the oath of office as fourth
President of the Philippine Re
public before Chief Justice Ri
cardo Paras. He will serve until
after next November’s presiden
tial elections, which now promise
to be a wide-open fight.
A staunch supporter of Mr
Magsaysay’s foreign policy, Mr.
Garcia is expected to continue
the late President’s aim of
•trengthening Amerlcan-Philip
mne friendship.
No Cabinet Changes
The new President told news
men he planned no changes in
the cabinet and would himself
continue to fill the post of Sec
retary of Foreign Affairs he had
held under Mr. Magsaysay. A
state funeral for Mr. Magsaysay
was scheduled for Friday.
Mr. Magsaysay. 49-year-old
champion of democracy and
bitter foe of communism, per
ished early Sunday when his
twin-engine plane crashed in
dense jungle just after leaving
Cebu for Manila.
Only one passenger, a Philip
pine newsman, survived the
crash which claimed the lives
of 26 persons, including several
top government officials and
educators, several Philippine
newsmen and members of Mr.
Mag.saysay's staff. The President
was returning from giving two
commencement speeches in Cebu
A close guard was placed
around the wreckage as officials
made clear they had not ruled

EN ROUTE WITH PRESI
DENT EISENHOWER. Mar. 18
—President Eisenhower watched
a “Terrier” guided missile fired
from the cruiser Canberra knock
an unmanned World War II
Hellcat fighter plane out of the
sky into tropical Bahama waters
today
Two of the 27-foot-long Ter
riers left the cruiser’s battery
with tremendous roars two and
a half seconds apart, leaving
brilliant trails of orange flame
behind.
Mr. Eisenhower watched the
firing from the after missile con
trol station, some 75 feet forward
a»ei slightly above the missile
, launchers.
Then he hurriedly picked up
a pair of binoculars and fol
lowed the missiles as they hur
tled through the sky in a south
erly direction toward the drone
plane, flying toward the Can
berra some 7miles away at
10.000-foot altitude.
First Missile Is Premature
With a big flash, followed by
a cloud of white smoke, the first
missile exploded prematurely too
far away from the drone plane
to do any damage.
But the second Terrier closed
to within 50 ieet of the target
♦well within lethal range—and
exploded to send the drone
plunging into the sea.
The President and other ob
servers saw a big splash as the
wrecked plane plunged nose first
into the water.
Correspondents Watch
Mr. Eisenhower wore slacks, a
sport short, and red golf cap as
he stood watching the test firing.
After he went back to his quav

OUTLOOK FOR ISRAEL
No Military Threat Seen
From Egypt for a Year
By RICHARD FRYKLUND
Foreign Corre#trt>%uient of the Stir
TEL AVIV Israel. Mar. 18—
israel’s government believes it
probably will be at least a year
before Egypt can again be a
military threat to this country.
During the coming year of
assumed relative safety, Israel
will i incentrate its spending and
energies on nonmilitary matters
—particularly the absorption of
100.000 expected new immi
grants. The vast problem of
modernizing Israel’s essentially
World War II armed forces will
have to wait.
"Nonmilitary problems have
the highest security priority
now.” Shimon Peres, director
general of the Defense Ministry,
sau. recently.
"Immigration comes first. We
need more people in this country,
and it costs a great deal of
money to absorb them. That is
why tlie new military budget has
gone down and the immigration
budget up " he asserted.
Number 2 Man at 34
Mr. Peres is the Number 2
man in the Defense Ministry,
just under Prime Minister Ben-
Gurion, who is his own defense
minister. Relaxed and informal,
the youthful Mr. Peres tilts back
in his chair and props his feet
on an open desk drawer while
chatting with visitors. He is 34.
As one of Mr. Ben-Gurion's
bright young men. he was given
the high post when only 29.
If the proof of the pudding
really is in the eating, then Mr.
Peres has proved out in re
cent monihs. The Sinai cam
paign showed that Mi. Peres'
a little bit more
Israel’s armed forces in the
coming year will concentrate on
consolidating and streamlining
what they have, barring unfor
seen turns in Mideastern events,
Mr. Peres said
When the time comes again
when military spending gets top
priority, Mr. Peres will seek a
thorough modernization pro
gram.
Ciles Arabs’ Advantage
“The most popular mistake of
armies is to prepare to win the
last war," Mr. Peres said. "Ours
is a good World War II army
We bought most of our arms
after that war on the surplus
market.
"It was sufficient for the Sinai
campaign, but in the future, we
will nerd modern weapdns."
Mr. Peres pointed out that the
Arabs have received most modern

arms from the Soviet Union.
Syria and Egypt, for instance,
■ have Mig 17s and expect 19s.
t The backbone of the Israeli air
• force is the French Mystere. The
t Mig 17 is equivalent to the new
. "Century series” American fight
t ers, while the model of the Mys
-1 tere which Israel has is like
1 America's Korean was fighter
; the F-86.
On land, where technological
changes have not come so fast,
Israel is not so bad off, Mr. Peres
’ said, although newer tanks, for
instance, will be needed to re
place current World War II
American Shermans. The navy
is a different problem: Ships are
tremendously expensive, their
operation is a vast technical
problem and naval defense is
more of a Mediterranean Red
Sea area problem than a strictly
Israeli responsibility.
Therefore. Mr. Peres indicated. <
- it will be up to other Mideast
maritime powers to counter
Egypt's made-in-Russia under
sea navy.
Expects Arms From France
Where will Israels modern
arms come from?
“Only four nations produce
these weapons: The United 1
States, Britain. France and Rus- 1
sia,” Mr. Peres said. “We will not
, buy from Russia."
Will Israel go to Uncle Sam?
; Mr. Peres pointed out that
prior to the Sinai campaign, (lie
United Staves had declined to sell
, arms to Israel. "Perhaps Ameiicn
will change her policy—it i- giv
’ ing tanks and planes to Saudi
Arabia,” he said.
"But I wouldn't be too opti
mistic.”
. He said no formal approach
, has been made to the United
States for a change in its arms ,
’ sale policy, but he is hopeful •
that at least the ban on spare
parts imposed at the time of
( Sinai will be lifted here. Mr
, Peres apparently believes France
, may be the best source for arms. ,
"We're on quite good terms with
France.” he said with 'a smile, j
Did captured Egyptian equip- ‘
ment help Israel?
’ "We gained less than Egypt
■ lost.” Mr. Peres said. "Egypt (
i suffered through loss of equip
ment. but we did not pick up too
; much that can be used by us.
s For instance, we captured am
munition for Stalin tanks. Dut
i no Stalin tanks. That deprives

Mrs. Meir
Wants U. S.
Showdown
Secertary of State Dulle*
is conferring with an anxious
lady Foreign Minister from
Israel today in the hope of re
straining her government from
forcibly returning to the Gaza
Strip.
Mrs. Golda Meir of Israel flew
into Washington from Jerusalem
yesterday at about the same
time that Secretary Dulles ar
rived from Canberra, where he
had attended the annual meet
ing of the Southeast Asia Treaty
Organization foreign ministers.
Mrs. Meir, accompanied by
Ambassador Abba Eban and two
aides, was ushered into Mr.
Dulles’ office at 10 a.m.
Mrs. Meir wants to hear how
the United States plans to deal
with Egypt now that President
Gamal Abdel Nasser has precipi
tately restored his civil adminis
trator to power in the Gaza
Strip, against United States
and United Nations advice.
Her advance men have warned
that she will not be satisfied to
hear what American policies are.
She knows what they are and
acknowledges they are satisfac
tory to Israel.
Wants Plan of Action
, Now she wants to know what
I the United States plan ot action
iwill be, since the mere indica
tion of policy has not been
enough to keep Egypt out of
Gaza, as Israel assumed.
In a brief stopover in New
York yesterday Mrs. Meir told
reporters Israel would “wait a
day or two” before she takes her
next step.
Premier David Ben-Gurion has
said he reserves to Israel its
■freedom of action” and he does
not plan to give advance notice
oi nis intentions.
The most drastic action he
could take would be to order
Israeli troops back into Gaza.
• This might involve overrunning
! the United Nations Emergency
Force, now being stationed along
the Gaza-Israel border.
Keeps Her Bargaining Power
Mrs. Meir refused to rule out
this possibility as she arrived
yesterday. Feporters asked if
Israel would fight again il Egypt
assumed too much authority in
Gaza.
“I can’t say at this time,” she
replied.
Posed with this threat, Mr.
Dulles does not come to his
meeting with Mrs. Meir empty
handed.
First, he can warn the Israeli
of the grave consequences that
would follow any attack on
UNEF.
Second, he can remind Israel
that her prospects lor obtaining
resumption of United States
economic aid will not be en
hanced by any rash reaction to
Egypt s return. This country
suspended its S2O-million-a-year
development assistance program
when Israel attacked Egypt last
October 29.
Third, Mr. Dulles is expected
