He said that the entire country must look to steel management and the United Steelworkers Union for wise conduct of their contract negotiations. Otherwise, in the long run, the government could not stand still and do nothing about any agreement that promised to be clearly inflationary. Warming to the subject, Eisenhower suggested that all Americans make it clear that they are deeply concerned over the long-range effects of the steel negotiations and will not stand idly by if they are to be damaged. Defends Appointment Other news conference highlights: —Eisenhower said Lewis L. Strauss should not retreat under the Senate attacks on his nomination as Secretary of Commerce. Speaking with obvious feeling, the President said the nation would come to a sad state of affairs if personal antagonisms reach the point where highly qualified men could not be confirmed for federal office. —He made a plea for congressional support of his foreign aid program, saying that current hearings in Congress on the subject should not be approached on a partisan basis. —He said he was perfectly ready to have the people of the country decide whether to repeal the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution prohibiting a president from serving more than two terms. Eisenhower added that he himself did not feel too strongly on the necessity of repealing the amendment. —He said a summer summit meeting would be a foregone conclusion if the May 11 foreign ministers meeting in Geneva produces tangible hope for reducing tension in Europe. Deplores Lynching —He expressed every confidence that the FBI and Mississippi authorities will find some way of punishing those responsible for the lynching of a Mississippi Negro accused of raping a white woman. Eisenhower said, however, that he did not think the Poplarville case necessitated any stronger federal statutes on the subject. —He expressed hope that the Republican 1960 presidential candidate will carry more southern states than he did in 1956. —He said Congress would have to find some way of meeting new deficits in the general fund of the Court Takes Boy When Dad Bars Transfusion DETROIT (UPI) — Doctors fought today to save the life of two-day-old boy, taken from his parents by court order because his father had refused to permit needed blood transfusions. A transfusion was given after a judge made the infant a warden of the court. The baby was taken to Children's Hospital Monday in critical condition, suffering from a deficiency of red blood cells. Wolf Zuelzer, chief of the laboratories at the hospital, immediately ordered a blood transfusion. But the father, Charles Collins, a Jehovah's Witness, refused to authorize the transfusion. "It would be better to let the child die if that is what planned them to save it by a violation of His will." Collins said. Zuelzer immediately called a social worker at the hospital within a hour of the child's arrival at the hospital, Kaufman signed orders making the child a ward of the court and authorized the transmission. Kaufman ruled the refusal of the parents to authorize the transfusion constituted neglect and, therefore, the boy could be made a ward of the court. "I'm against the action taken by the court," Collins said. "The parents are responsible for their children. I will seek custody of my offspring as soon as it is released from the hospital." Dickson Murder Trial May Go To Judgment Today as Final Arguments Begin By Orange County News Service Final arguments in the murder trial of Frieda Dickson, 42-year-old Garden Grove housewife charged with killing her husband, Dean, are expected today. The case, in its second week, is being heard by a six-man and six-woman jury in the court of Superior Judge Robert Gardner.

He had been held on charges of raping a white woman. Parker's body was found by an FBI agent and a Mississippi state trooper, his head protruding above thick underbrush in the swamp-country river, 20 miles west of Poplarville at the Louisiana-Mississippi state line. Parker's head was reported to have been mutilated. But authorities said that may have been caused by debris in the river. The autopsy results were to be disclosed at Poplarville. Taken To Mortuary Parker's body was taken from Charity Hospital here early today in an ambulance to Hall's Mortuary in Hattlesburg, Miss. Parker was awaiting trial at Poplarville on charges of raping a 23-year-old white mother Feb. 24 while her four-year-old daughter looked on. The alleged assault occurred near Lumberton, where the rape victim's car had stalled. The attack was made after the woman's husband left the vehicle to go to a garage. Parker's body was pulled from the river six hours after it was found. The delay resulted from the convening at the scene of a Washington-St. Tammany Parish (county). La. coroner's jury. The body was bleached, apparently from the long period of submersion in the 40-yard-wide river. When Parker was snatched from his cell he was wearing a pair of trousers in addition to his underwear. The trousers were missing when the body was found near the Mississippi shore of the river a little over a half-mile south of this city. Parker and the lynch mob had been the objects of one of the South's largest manhunts. Neither the 40 FBI agents nor the large Mississippi Highway Patrol staff working day and night on the case had reported any clues. A bridge which joins Mississippi and Louisiana just above the river where the body was found may have been the dumping spot for the victim. There were no weights attached to the body. WASHINGTON (UPI)—Former President Harry S. Truman bluntly advised congressional critics of foreign aid today to cut their own salaries rather than slump on assistance to America's allies. The ex-President, testifying on President Eisenhower's $3,900,000,000 foreign aid request, told the House Foreign Affairs Committee it would be "playing with dynamite" to slash the program. Truman said it should be perfectly obvious that in the struggle against Communism. America must have as many friends and as few enemies as possible. He said Congress should increase the authorization for the development loan fund, not slash it. Further, he said, this shouldn't be done by skimping on military assistance to friendly nations. The former President did not feel the foreign gram was a partisan man though he had heard "did reports of political party entering into the picture." He emphasized there a conflict on the issue—as he was concerned—between Eisenhower administration and the prior Democratic administration. Truman said even people supported the program did realize how important "Mark this well," he did. "The mutual security problem not a soft spot in our hands." "It is not a place where country can economize in and easy fashion without anything much. If you start ing on this program, you are ing with dynamite." Prosperous World New Truman said that if O felt it had to cut the bus shouldn't be in the forefield. "There are many other you ought to cut first." "I will not be so indiscreet name them here—but I must gest that you ought not..."

Penney Co. bank messengers in the busy Orangefair Shopping Center Mall at 2:27 p.m. Monday and escaped with more than $20,000. Their getaway car, stolen in Santa Ana shortly before, was abandoned in another part of the huge parking lot and police are hunting for the second car. Police said the gunmen are believed to be the same "professionals" who held up Long's Drug Store in the same shopping center last year and who have committed numerous other large robberies throughout the state. Larry Shaw, 21, and Michael D. Ensign, 24, both of 1150 Casa Grande St., Anaheim, had just left the J. C. Penney Store with two bags of money containing $7,834.44 in checks and $12,389.45 in cash. As they started down the sidewalk on the south mall behind the store, heading toward their car, the gunmen roared north in the lot from the direction of Orangefair Way, almost running over a woman walking in the lot. When the company employees were opposite Brownie's Toy Store, the gunmen jumped out of their car, guns drawn. Getting in front and behind the messengers, the gunmen said, "Throw them down, son, this is not a play game. Turn around and go right back to the store." The gunmen scooped up the dropped bags one back to their A stolen auto, $20,000 daring Co. bank mes-sengers Monday, is seen being "dusted" for fingerprints in Orangefair Shopping Center lot where it was abandoned. (OCNS Photo) Bets Critics And Program The former President said he did not feel the foreign aid program was a partisan matter, although he had heard "disturbing reports of political partisanship entering into the picture." He emphasized there was no conflict on the issue—as far as he was concerned—between the Glenhower administration "and the prior Democratic administration." Truman said even people who supported the program did not fully realize how important it was. "Mark this well," he declared. The mutual security program is not a soft spot in our budget. "It is not a place where the country can economize in a cheap and easy fashion without hurting anything much. If you start skimping on this program, you are playing with dynamite." Prosperous World Needed Truman said that if Congresselt it had to cut the budget, it shouldn't be in the foreign aid field. "There are many other places you ought to cut first," he said. I will not be so indiscreet as toame them here—but I might suggest that you ought not to cut 200 Small Boats Brave Choppy Sea To Leave Avalon By Orange County News Service A flotilla of 200 small craft struck out to the mahland yesterday and arrived in the evening hours after being escorted by the Coast Guard from Avalon, Santa Catalina. The boats had been stranded at the off-shore island after gale winds and raging seas cancelled all commercial sea transportation and capsized scores of craft in the channel. Some 50 to 60 boats remained in the security of Avalon harbor and did not join the flotilla yesterday because seas were still choppy. The Coast Guard told OCNS these will probably leave today. Thousands of pleasure seekers were stranded on the island over the week end. Many had sailed from Newport Beach for the "Bucaneer's Days," the opening of the tourist season. A search for Clarence O. Pederson, of 509.31st St., Newport Beach, is continuing, today by officials off the Santa Barbara Islands. Pederson's 38-foot cabin cruiser was found adrift Sunday. Assembly Gets Bill To OK Pupil Spanking SACRAMENTO (UPI)—Legislation to permit school teachers to spank unruly pupils was approved late Monday by the Assembly Education Committee. However, the bill was amended to permit the use of "psychological methods" as an alternative to physical punishment. The measure was sent to the lower house floor in a form which would require each school district to adopt rules setting down the methods of punishment to be permitted in the school. Assemblyman Charles G. Garrigus (D-Fresno), author of the plan, told the committee that at the present time few schools had set methods of punishment. Garrigus said teachers deserved "some security" when punishing students. Passage of his bill, he said, would let teachers know whether or not they were permitted to hit pupils. PROSPEROUS WORLD NEEDED Truman said that if Congress it had to cut the budget, it shouldn't be in the foreign aid field. "There are many other places you ought to cut first," he said. I will not be so indiscreet as to name them here—I might suggest that you ought not to cut this program unless you feel the situation is so bad you first cut congressional salaries." Truman said America "cannot exist as an island of prosperity on an impoverished world." "To the extent we can help other nations raise their standard of living," he said, "our own standard of living here at home will be increased." SENATE APPROVES BILL FOR TWO NEW JUDGES The State Senate yesterday afternoon approved a bill to increase from two to four municipal judges for the Anaheim-Fullerton municipal Court District.

LOS ANGELES (UPI) — Hal McIntyre, 42, leader of one of the nation's top swing bands in the 1940's, died today of burns suffered in an apartment fire. The musician, who gained fame while playing with the Glenn Miller orchestra before forming his own band at the age of 26, entered the hospital Sunday with first, second and third degree burns over the lower half of his body. Between 200 and 300 persons responded to an urgent appeal for blood donations for the musician whose swing band has not been working steadily in recent years, a General Hospital spokesman said. McIntyre, a saxophone and clarinet artist, emerged briefly from a coma Monday and asked for an attorney to make out his will, but he lapsed into unconsciousness by the time an attorney arrived. A priest visited him later. A hospital spokesman said McIntyre suffered from deep shock brought on by burns on the lower half of his body. He apparently fell asleep early Sunday while smoking a cigarette at the Hollywood apartment of his band's vocalist, Jeanne McManus. She was not at home at the time. Firemen said they found the bandleader huddled under a smoldering blanket on the kitchen floor of the blazing apartment. He had apparently fallen asleep earlier on a couch in the adjacent front room.
