Rebel Invaders Reject Surrender Ultimatum
By MILTON CARR
United Press International
PANAMA CITY (UPI)—A Cuban army officer reported today Panama's rebel invaders had rejected a surrender ultimatum, but that a few were willing to call off the invasion if allowed to go free. He called the current situation a temporary truce.
Capt. Raul Torres, one of two boarded Cuban revolutionary army officers who negotiated with the invaders in the captured coastal town of Nombre de Dios (God's Name), returned here shortly before midnight to report the results of his mission to Panamanian officials.
He told newsmen the invaders, mostly Cubans, were trained fighters who were determined to carry the fight to the finish.
"Under no conditions do they want to surrender their arms — no soldier does," he said.
Mission A Failure
Panamanian Minister of Justice Jose D. Bazan said Torres' mission was "considered a failure by our government." He said the Cuban captain would not return to Nombre de Dios unless requested by the Organization of American States investigating team, which was scheduled to arrive here later today.
Torres described the current situation as a temporary truce, with most of the 80 members of the original invading party remaining in Nombre de Dios. Twenty rebels were reported pushing across the San Blas Mountains in an apparent drive toward strengthened by U.S.-supplied arms and ammunition, were moving to encircle the rebel headquarters and to cut off the 20-man spearhead moving toward Panama City.
Torres, who brought one of the insurgents with him, said the rebels felt they were liberating Panama from a dictatorship.
Castro Condemna Act
He said a few were willing to call off the fight, but only if allowed to keep their arms and if promised immunity from prosecution by both the Panamanian and Cuban governments.

Trapped 'Coon Dog Fed Tranquilizers
OWASSO, Okla. (UPI) — Rescue workers fed Little Richard a tranquilizer pill in a pound of hamburger to keep him quiet and alive while they chip through solid rock deep in a small cave that has held the 'coon hunting hound prisoner for six days.
A three-foot, 63-pound midget tried and failed to rescue the dog Tuesday. Six dynamite blasts also did not good.
A cafe owner brought some soup that was fed to the dog through tubes. Little Richard let it trickle down his throat. He gulped the hamburger in nothing flat.

Gives Okay for Convention Hall
Anaheim City Council last night granted a special use permit to Leo Freedman, Beverly Hills developer, to construct his proposed convention and exhibition hall at 1601 S. Manchester Ave., east of Harbor Blvd. and north of Katella.
The no-action motion which grants approval of the plan came without the slightest hesitation on the part of council members after a short speech by Freedman telling that he had obtained permission from Southern California Edison to use their easement between his northern and southern parcels of land. The north parcel is designed for parking while the southern will house the giant. 90,000 square-foot edifice designed to handle cultural and sporting events, exhibitions and conventions.
Freedman quoted the planning commission's recommendation given the project at their April 20 meeting, saying, "... there is a need for a convention hall in the Disneyland area."
Work on the project is expected to commence in approximately three months, with target date for completion sometime around June of 1960.
In conjunction with the convention hall, Freedman has previously told of plans to erect a 10-story hotel called the Charter House which he plans to lease to the Hotel Corporation of America. The hotel will face onto Harbor Blvd. on property adjacent and to the west of the convention hall. Work on that building will begin in June and should be completed by the end of the year.
The $5 to 6 million dollar convention hall with a permanent seating capacity of 6,000 and temporary additional seats in generally agreed to be badly needed, and a recommendation asking that a similar building be constructed was submitted to city officials by a sub-committee of the Anaheim Citizen's Committee looking into such matters.
The second floor of the domeshaped structure will be employed as a banquet hall and ball room, and the parking area is expected to handle 2,272 cars.
It was also learned last night that Sam Domino, owner of the Magic Star Hotel, is erecting a new $500,000 nightclub at 1735 Harbor Blvd., across from the coming hotel and convention hall. The new club, to be called the Domino Club, will have a cocktail lounge, dining room and banquet room.
Fed Tranquilizers
OWASSO, Okla. (UPI) — Rescue workers fed Little Richard a tranquilizer pill in a pound of hamburger to keep him quiet and alive while they chip through solid rock deep in a small cave that has held the 'coon hunting hound prisoner for six days.
A three-foot, 63-pound midget tried and failed to rescue the dog Tuesday. Six dynamite blasts also did not good.
A cafe owner brought some soup that was fed to the dog through tubes. Little Richard let it trickle down his throat. He gulped the hamburger in nothing flat.
It was the first food Little Richard had since his entrapment last Thursday. Rescuers thought that letting him lose weight might help free him.
But the white spotted hound dog has lost an estimated 10 pounds and workers feared he might die from hunger. He was a chubby 60 pounds when he got stuck. He laps water from the sides of the crack dampened by a fire hose snaked into the cave.
Tuesday night, Don Dillara, a slender 16-year-old who weighs 87 pounds, silthed into the cave and tried to grab the dog. But nervous Little Richard recolled, adding another six inches between him and freedom.
Rescuers said they might get to him today if they can chip through another 24 inches or so of rock.
Albert Leeds, Tulaa, a midget, tried to squeeze into the crack but couldn't make it.
Brown Seeks End Of Funds for Fairs
By JAMES C. ANDERSON
United Press International
SACRAMENTO (UPI) — Democratic Gov. Edmund G. Brown takes a shot today at one of the Legislature's most prized sacred cows.
Lower house supporters of the governor set as a special order of business debate on a bill to wipe out the 20-million-dollar fairs and exposition fund.
The bill was introduced at the request of Brown by Assemblyman Thomas M. Rees (D-Los Angeles).
The fairs and exposition fund is dear to the hearts of many legislators in both houses because it provides from horse racing revenues a guaranteed $65,000 a year to 72 district and county fairs plus larger amounts to four other fairs and $30,000 to the Cloverdale Citrus Fair.
Too Much Money
In many cases, the fairs simply haven't been able to spend all the money they get. At the end of the fiscal year, the Department of Finance estimated the 77 fairs would have cash reserves totaling $7,801,963.
Under the Rees bill backed by the governor, the automatic handout would stop in 1960. The fairs said, "But the governor and I are saying that fairs should come to the Department of Finance by the Legislature the way all other agencies do and justify the budget.
In addition to the $65,000 a year guarantee to 72 fairs, the C Palace at San Francisco paid $250,000 as does the Los Angeles County fair at Pomona. The national Orange show at San Bernardino receives $150,000 and the District fair at Los Angeles down for $125,000.

Ike Disappointed Over Labor Bill
WASHINGTON (UPI) — President Eisenhower said today he was very much disappointed by the Senate-passed labor reform bill. He expressed hope that the House would strengthen it.
The President told a news conference he felt the Senate bill did not deal properly with secondary boycotts, blackmail picketing, and the assignment to the individual states of jurisdiction in purely local disputes where the National Labor Relations Board has refused to move in.
Eisenhower said the Senate version, approved 90-1 Saturday, definitely needed to be strengthened. He said he was very hopeful that the House would this.
Other highlights of his first news conference in a month:
—He rejected speculation that he was reluctant to have Christian A. Herter succeed John Foster Dulles as secretary of state. His three-day delay in appointing Herter after Dulles' resignation was due simply to the need for getting and reading a new medical report on Herter, then arranging a time when the appointment could be announced in a dignified manner with Herter present.
The President and Dulles had agreed sometime earlier that Herter was the man for the job if Dulles had to resign.
—He dismissed new criticism of him by British 'Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery.
—If a summit conference is held and Eisenhower finds it impossible to attend for the entire period, Vice President Richard M. Nixon might possibly sit in. But there is no plan for this at present, and Nixon and Eisenhower would certainly not be at a summit conference at the same time. Constitutional conditions would prohibit this.
Weather
Mostly sunny today and Thursday but fog and low clouds late tonight and Thursday morning. Continued warm today with high about 88. Low tonight 62. Cooler Thursday.

Admits Remark to Morse Ill-Advised

Morse Ill-Advised
WASHINGTON (UPI) — President Eisenhower said today he saw no reason why Mrs. Clare Boothe Luce should resign as the new U.S. ambassador to Brazil.
Eisenhower conceded at a news conference that Mrs. Luce's remark about Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) Tuesday following her Senate confirmation may have been ill advised. But he thought it was only human.
Mrs. Luce remarked that her troubles with Morse "go some years hack when Sen. Morse was kicked in the head by a horse." Morse had led a bitter, but futile attack, on Mrs. Luce's nomination.
Eisenhower revealed that, at his request, a special check was made in Brazil Tuesday afternoon. He said this showed that it was quite clear Mrs. Luce still would be welcome as this country's envoy in Brazil. Therefore, he said, he saw no major impairment of her usefulness.
Husband Urges Resignation
Mrs. Luce's husband, magazine publisher Henry R. Luce, had urged Tuesday night that his wife offer to resign in view of the attacks made on her in the Senate.
Eisenhower said Mrs. Luce had submitted no resignation and he had not been in direct contact with her since the Senate confirmation.
Some senators who were pictured Tuesday night as ready to go on record against Mrs. Luce if she did not resign had cooled down today. A reported move by some Democrats to offer a resolution expressing lack of confidence in Mrs. Luce also appeared to have been abandoned.

Burglary Loot Totals $1,400
Three burglaries reported to Anaheim police yesterday accounted for losses valued at $1,467.58. Two of the offenses were committed during daylight hours.
The first reported crime was a robbery of the Silverwood Men's Store, 446 N. Euclid Ave., reported at 1:40 p.m., by Thomas M. Short.
According to testimony given to police, a male Negro over six feet in height, and about 20 or 25 years old, entered the store at 1:30 p.m., and requested to be shown some slacks. Short took the man to the rear of the store where the slacks are kept and showed him some. After about five minutes inspection the man declined a purchase and left the store.
Shortly afterwards, a man identified as Gunderson entered the store and asked Short if he had any Negroes employed there. Answering in the negative, Gunderson stated that he had just observed a man fitting the description of the "customer" standing at the curb between Silverwood's and the Broadway Dept. Store; with a

Allies Agree on 'Tough' Stand
meeting with the Russians in the Swiss city.
At the same time, the sources said, the West has agreed on a three-point agenda which it will propose to the Soviet Union at the start of the Geneva talks May 11. These include:
— German problems.
— Berlin.
— European security.
The diplomatic sources provided the guidance on developments at the morning session after the foreign ministers had decided to im-pose a shield of secrecy around their discussions here.
Secretary of State Christian Herter met for two hours and 20 minutes at the Quai d'Orsay with the British, French and West German foreign ministers.
They met again for two hours in the afternoon.
Their aim was to line up an agreed western strategy in preparation for the Geneva meetings.
The "tough" western line, the sources explained, would not exclude all concessions. But it would refuse to bow to Soviet attempts to squeeze it out of Berlin.
It also would mean that the West would not lay all its cards on the table at the outset in Geneva.
In particular, the sources said, the western allies will take great care not to make any proposals in the early stages of the Geneva talks with which the Russians later could trip them up.
Meanwhile, the sources said, the United States, Britain, France and West Germany still are far from full agreement on details of their Geneva strategy.
