Solon Demands Administration Waive Secrecy Order on Monitored Calls WASHINGTON (P)—Sen. John L. McClellan D-Ark. demanded today that the administration waive its secrecy order forbidding disclosure of monitored telephone calls between Army Secretary Robert T. Stevens and Army Counsel-lor John G. Adams about the Army-McCarthy dispute. At the same time, Sen. Karl E. Mundt (R-SD), acting chairman of the subcommittee investigating the dispute, suggested the same action on two or three calls which Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy (R-Wis) has demand be put in the record. After considerable wrangling, the subcommittee approved a motion by McClellan to call John J. Lucas, Stevens' appointments secretary, from the Pentagon to testify. Lucas monitored most of the calls. Special subcommittee Counsel Ray H. Jenkins asked that two other Pentagon employees, a "Mr. Rhodes" and a "Miss Pike," also be called because, he said, they took down some of the calls. Lt. Col. John F. T. Murray of the Army legal staff left the hearing room and notified the Pentagon to send the three to the hearing room. From Lucas and the others, McClellan said, the subcommittee needs identification of transcripts of the monitored calls and certification that the records are accurate. Lucas, in one appearance earlier in these hearings, had testified that one of his main duties was monitoring Secretary Stevens' telephone calls. The developments on monitored calls came after the Army today gave a go-ahead to all senators—the seven subcommittee members and McCarthy to put transcripts of their monitored talks with Stevens into the record. Charles Woodward Drumond, 39, of Palm Springs, in Orange County General hospital today as the result of his unusual request made by the Anaheim Community hospital early this morning. Mrs. Jeanne Whitaker, nurse at the local hospital w somewhat taken aback when Drummond entered the hospital shortly after midnight and informed her that he was ed a place to "lay down my die." She told the man to down while arrangements were being made; then she called Anaheim police who came got him and removed him at the station. Under questioning, Drummond admitted that there was nothing physically wrong with him but became very indignant as the questioning continued police reported, and kept peating that all he wanted was a place where he could "down and die." A telephone call was made Orange County General hospital by local officers and hospital said they would send doctor to Anaheim to examine the man. Drummond, however, said that he had his own and would go to the hospital if shown the way, so an officer escorted him to the institution. Dr. Linson of the Council hospital reported this morning that Drummond is being kept there or examination. stated that the man wasjecting strongly to being held accommodations and the service at the hospital. Dr. Linson said that as soon as space was available, the man would transferred to the psychiatric ward.

The Republican congressional campaign committee said the cost to the taxpayers for mailing copies of Yorty's speech amounted—at 2.9 cents each—to $119,146.50. A great many members of Congress dispatch vast quantities of franked mail. Republicans as well as Democrats do that. It is perfectly legal and equally bi-partisan. And when a congressman decides to run state-wide for his party's senatorial nomination his frank gets a real workout. It is merely that the post office ruling makes it possible now absolutely to blanket an area if that seems to be necessary.

WASHINGTON (UP) - Colorado Springs, Colo., appears to have edge in speculation in military clones on the site that will be chosen for the Air Force academy. A five-man selection board narrowed the field down to Alton Ill., on the Mississippi River; L. Geneva, Wis., and Colorado Springs. It is now up to Air Force retainer Harold E. Talbott to make the final choice since the booth failed to agree on a single location. Among the factors favoring Colorado Springs, military circles noted, are the large amounts acreage available, about 15,100 acres, and the semi-arid climate with cool summers and moderate winters. Colorado Springs is about miles south of Denver. The Alton site has 7500 acres of the Lake Geneva site--about 90% Both are somewhat smaller than Air Force officials have indicated they wanted for the academy.

IT WAS ONE-OF THE ADMINISTRATION'S BRIGHTEST VICTories IN THE CURRENT SESSION. BUT IT WON'T BE FINAL UNTIL HOUSE AND SENATE CONFERENCES MEET NEXT FRiday TO IRON OUT THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE HOUSE AND SENATE VERSIONS OF THE MEasure. CONGRESSIONAL Horse Trading IN THE CONFERENCE APPEARED LIKELY TO REDUCE THE 140,000-unit PUBLIC HOUSING PROGRAM AND ALTER SOME OF THE President's OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS. APPROVED BY VOICE VOTE THE Senate approved its housing bill by a voice vote after three hours of debate. The only controversy centered around the public housing program in which the government subsidizes rental housing built for low-income families by local authorities. The southern Democratic move to kill all public housing stemmed from fears growing out of a supreme court anti-segregation ruling. It was led by Sen. Burnet R. Maybank (D-SC). By a 66 to 16 vote, the Senate then adopted the administration's public housing program, calling for 140,000 units to be constructed over a four-year period. The crucial vote, 38 Republicans and 28 Democrats lined up behind the administration proposal and 13 Democrats two Republicans and one independent opposed. CALLED Victory For Ike Chairman Homer E. Capehart (R-Ind), who guided the housing bill through the Banking Committee and Senate, proclaimed the Senate's action as "an administration victory." He called the measure "the most liberal housing bill ever passed." The House, in passing the housing bill early in April, rejected the administration's public housing program by a 211 to 176 vote. After a political tangle between Democrats and Republicans, the House also voted against authorizing construction of any more public housing units. Well-placed legislators are predicting a compromise authorization of 35,000 public housing units for one year, rather than 35,000 for four years as recommended by the administration. Aside from public housing, the house bill in many respects is more liberal than the Senate bill, particularly on terms for government mortgages on individual homes and the administration's slum clearance-urban renewal project. FRENCH ABandon POST UNDER HEAVY ASSAULT BY Reds BY LOUIS GUILBERT United Press Staff Correspondent HANOI (P) — French Union troops today abandoned the post of Cho Noi under heavy Communist assault, giving Red rebels access to the road leading to the Hanolph lifihine. A second rebel force swept into the Catholic Village of Koan Phon Gha on the coast 60 miles southeast of Hanoland and seized a seminary for priests after hand-to-hand battle with Catholic militiamen. The French high command said Cho Noi had been under attack for a week and was abandoned during the Reds' eighth attack. Every night during the last seven days, French aircraft had bombed and machine-gunned rebel positions around Cho Noi's barbed wire barricades in an effort to save the post because of its position in regard to the railway and highway connecting Hanoland and the port of Haiphong. A Communist force estimated at battalion strength moved in last night with mortars, bazookas and heavy machine guns, forcing the garrison commander to withdraw the defenders toward Hunygen on the Red River. The French high command said Communist losses were "heavy" AUHS TRE NEED FOR The Board of Trustees and one of the newly-financial needs of the school year 1954-55 and During the past year Wiley Says R 'Stubbed Toe' Geneva Conflict WASHINGTON (P) — Under Wiley (R-Wis) it Russia has "stubbed it badly at Geneva that it pears the free world war "to get together on a sec in Southeast Asia."

A man selection board has voted the field down at Alton, in the Mississippi River; Lake Waia, Wis., and Colorado. It is now up to Air Secretary Harold E. Talbott to make final choice since the board agreed on a single location. The factors favoring Colorado Springs, military circles, are the large amount of available, about 15,100 acres, the semi-arid climate with summers and moderate winters, Colorado Springs is about 60 south of Denver. Alton site has 7500 acres and Lake Geneva site about 9000 acres somewhat smaller than force officials have indicated wanted for the academy. Rep. Lawrence H. Smith (R-Wis) told Talbott Lake Geneva property owners oppose the academy because it would "detract" from the area as a vacation spot. Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy (R-Wis) said, however, that he would "most certainly favor" the Geneva site. Rep. J. Edgar Chenoweth (R-Colo.) said the people of Colorado Springs are "practically unanimous" in favor of locating the academy there. Well-placed legislators are predicting a compromise authorization of 35,000 public housing units for one year, rather than 35,000 for four years as recommended by the administration. Aside from public housing, the house bill in many respects is more liberal than the Senate bill, particularly on terms for government mortgages on individual homes and the administration's slum clearance-urban renewal program. Weather Partly cloudy tonight and Saturday morning but mostly sunny and slightly warmer Saturday afternoon. The air secretary soon will name an architectural-engineering firm or combination of firms to plan the academy and supervise construction. Congress has authorized 125-million dollars for the academy and an additional million to be spent on a temporary location which is expected to be used for the first classes next year. Rep. Lawrence H. Smith (R-Wis) told Talbott Lake Geneva property owners oppose the academy because it would "detract" from the area as a vacation spot. Sen. Joseph R.

A Communist force estimated at battalion strength moved in last night with mortars, bazookas and heavy machine guns, forcing the garrison commander to withdraw the defenders toward Hunygen on the Red River. The French high command said Communist losses were "heavy" in the attacks on Cho Nol. Two Communist battalions took part in the attack on the Catholic community on the coast. High command spokesmen said the militiamen defended the seminary floor by floor and room by room. The rebels withstood air and artillery fire and crept into the seminary, largest buildig in the community, and gained control of the ground floor. After 30 minutes of hand-to-hand fighting with bayonets, knives, grenades, burp guns and even furniture, the Communists got up to the second floor. Smoke and fire poured from all of the building's windows and savage yells punctuated the din of gunfire in an hours-long battle for the third floor. The Redds finally seized the entire building. Heavy losses were reported on both sides. Stephenson Installed AHS Student Body Prexy Dave Stephenson, incoming AHS student body president, yesterday was installed with other officers at a general assembly presided over by senior president John Faessel. Faessel and principal Paul Demaree gave farewell speeches. Demaree will take over as superintendent of the district next year. Demaree was presented with a watch from the student body, the result of voluntary contributions which were student-initiated through the social studies classes.

Wiley made the state Secretary of State John Dulles was called to testify the Foreign Relations Committee in support of the admin $3,500,000,000 foreign aid action. It puts a heavy emphasis on Indochina and the Far East. Questioning of Dulles widened to center on plans for fense of Southeast Asia Operations Administrator E. Stassen said Thursday administration wants $1,400 for aid to Indochina and East. Dulles has already arrived at House side for a free hard portion that aid in rather than have most needed through France as that plan has caused controversy in the House and controversial in the Senate.

C. bulletin photo) AUHS Trustees Explain Need for Boost in Tax The Board of Trustees of the Anaheim Union High School District and one of the newly elected board members, conferred today on the financial needs of the Anaheim Union High School District for the school year 1954-55 and issued the following statement: During the past several years Anaheim Union High School has operated on the maximum tax rate of 75 cents per $100 in assessed valuation as provided by state law. In addition to this the people of the district voted an additional 25 cent tax four years ago "To provide money for the purpose of building school buildings, alterations, or additions, furniture and necessary apparatus, improvement of grounds and the purchase of school grounds." An additional .0352 has been added as allowable by law to provide funds for the high school district's contribution to the Anaheim recreation program and the retirement fund of the non-certified employees of the district. Thus the total tax rate during the school year 1953-54 was 1.0362. This does not include the rate required to meet bond redemption and interest which is set by the County. The 75 cent tax rate was used for the operation of the high school. Has Three Schools During the school year 1954-55, complying with the vote of the people of the Anaheim Union High School District Nov. 4, 1952, the board will operate three schools SANTA ANA—Jilted by his girl friend, a 25-year-old Santa Ana ex-Marine stabbed her to death early this morning and police said they would file a murder complaint with the District Attorney's office this afternoon. Booked on suspicion of murder is Samuel P Cavazos who lives in the rear of 422 East Third St. He was arrested by Santa Ana police after his victim, Lola Mosqueda, 29, of 6041's Fruit St., made a deathbed statement at Orange County General hospital naming her assailant. Lt. Clarence Johnson, chief of detectives, said Cavazos admitted stabbing the woman in her home at 1:30 a.m. today and said she had refused to reconcile their broken love affair. The woman died at 3:30 a.m. today from three stab wounds, two in the back and one which punctured her heart. Before her death she told officers Cavazos came to her home and demanded entry. When she refused he kicked down the door shouting, "I'll kill you." Police said the suspect used an ordinary pocket knife which they have listed as the murder weapon. The woman is married and has three children, but has been separated from her husband for more than a year. The body was taken to McDougall-Smith Mortuary in Santa Ana where funeral arrangements are pending. Expectant Mother Killed on Highway SANTA MONICA — An expectant mother was killed yesterday when she was struck by an auto as she stood on a highway shortly after leaving another car which had smashed into the rear of a truck. The unborn child of the victim, Mrs. Josephine Tollette, 26, also was killed in the accident a mile from Zuma Beach. The Highway Patrol said Mrs. Tollette, wife of a Navy enlisted man, was going to Port Hueneme for maternity care. Her car, driven by Mrs. Della Farley, 24, of Venice, skipped on too high ground. Wiley, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said the stubborn and intransigent Communist tactics at the peace conference also may result in French ratification of the European Defense Community, which the Soviet bloc has bent every effort to prevent, and the commitment of more French troops to the Indochina war front. Wiley made the statement as Secretary of State John Foster Dulles was called to testify before the Foreign Relations Committee in support of the administration's $3,500,000,000 foreign aid authorization. It puts a heavy emphasis on Indochina and the Far East. Questioning of Dulles was expected to center on plans for the defense of Southeast Asia. Foreign Operations Administrator Harold E. Stassen said Thursday that the administration wants $1,133,000,000 for aid to Indochina and the Far East. Dulles has already asked the House side for a free hand to apportion that aid in the Far East rather than have most of it funneled through France as at present. That plan has caused some controversy in the House and may be controversial in the Senate as well. At the same time, U.S., British, French, Australian and New Zealand military leaders continued their secret Pentagon talks on the admittedly worsening situation in Southeast Asia. Informed sources said France outlined the overall problem Thursday and indications were that the group would buckle down today to estimating what might be needed, to support any united Allied action against Communist aggression. FIREMEN ANSWER CALL The Anaheim fire department was called to the home of H. W. Fielden, 836 Aspen St., at about 9:30 this morning, when a wall gas heater developed a leak and flamed up. It was quickly extinguished and no damage was done, firemen reported. Has Three Schools During the school year 1954-55, complying with the vote of the people of the Anaheim Union High School District Nov. 4, 1952, the board will operate three schools — Anaheim Union High School, Premont Junior High School and Western Junior High School. These three schools will have a total estimated enrollment of 3,300 students as compared with 1,572 quolled in the high school this year. There will be approximately 135 teachers needed to staff the three schools as compared to 71 on the staff of the high school this year. Additional non-certificated personnel such as janitors, bus drivers, etc. will also be needed. It is for these reasons that the board has found it necessary to ask for approval of Continued on Page 4 Brownell Implores Congress to Okay Bill Approving Wire-Tap Evidence LOS ANGELES — Attorney General Herbert Brownell today implored Congress to approve a bill allowing the government to use evidence acquired through wire-tapping against "spies and traitors." Brownell, in a speech before the Los Angeles Association last night, attacked the limitation placed upon the use of intercepted evidence in the trial of security cases. He made no mention of Sen. Joseph McCarthy, despite an earlier promise that he would discuss the Wisconsin Republican in his address. Brownell agreed that invasion of privacy was repugnant to all Americans, but said he deplored the "strait-jackets" placed around federal prosecuting attorneys in not permitting them to use intercepted evidence in the trial of security cases. He said conviction of spies and traitors "is practically impossible unless you can use wiretaps in court." Brownell said that because enemy agents will not talk in court and since federal agents cannot testify as to what they heard over a telephone, the Department of Justice is blocked in proving its case against espionage agents. "Surely this nation need not wait until it-has been destroyed before learning who its traitors are and bringing them to justice," he said.
