Trial of Protestants Also to Be Mimicry, O'Boyle Tells 1,200 The trial of 15 Protestant min- isters in Bulgaria will be another mimicry of justice, the Most Rev. Patrick A. O’Boyle, Archibshop of Washington, declared today at citizenship ceremonies in St. Mat- thew’s Cathedral. Archbishop O’Boyle told 1,200 officials, educators and students that the Protestant ministers are new victims of the Communist philosophy “which defies God and the sacred character of the indi- vidual in order to defy and en- throne the omnipotent state. May God give these ministers strength to bear their heavy burdens.” “When from behind the rude wall of the Iron Curtain,” Arch- bishop O’Boyle said, “I catch faint voices of an oppressed people silenced under fictions of godless laws, I thank God I am an Amer- ican, whose forefathers forged into iron law that man is a crea- ture of G*W, God’s own property, and endowed in the equality of human nature with rights that none may deny, despise or despoil.” Asks Prayers for Victims. He asked prayers for those who suffer persecution for justice’s sake. “We do not sing the stupid praises of dictators as if rights come from them alone,” the prel- ate declared, “and we have been moved and shocked at what citizenship exacts of others behind what the world has learned to call the Iron Curtain.” He said the Iron Curtain is grim and foreboding, a hard and cold impasse which forbids light for anything else in its stern unyield- ing barrier. Archbishop O’Boyle made his at- tack on religious persecution in Eastern Europe after presiding at Solemn High Mass this morning in the Cathedral for the welfare of America. It was the George Washington birthday even at the Cathedral. Before the archbishop spoke, the Right Rev. John K. Cart- wright, rector of St. Matthew's, also attacked the Communist philosophy in the principal sermon. Behind the Iron Curtain, Msgr. Cartwright said, millions of serfs are guaranteed no rights but physical existence. This des- potism, he declared, is enforced by the prisons and truncheons of a brutal police. The Catholic Prelates, Arch- bishop Alojzijc Stepinac of Yugo- slavia and Josef Cardinal Miftds- zenty of Hungary and Bishop Lajos Ordas, Lutheran primate of Hungary, represent God, the soul and freedom, the Monsignor con- tinued. Therefore, he said, in the exact logic of an evil policy they must be destroyed. .Msgr. Cartwright told the as- semblage that if George Wash- ington were to return today ‘‘his knightly sword would come 6ut of its scabbard to salute the kindred hero soul beneath the bishop's cross of Mindszenty.” j Participants in Mass. In the mass that preceded the sermons, the ^celebrant was the Rt. Rev. Patrick J. McCormick, S.T.L., rector of Catholic Univers- ity. Other participants in the j mass were: The Rev. Titus i Cranny, O.S.A., chaplain of the' Newman Club at Howard Univers- ity, and the Rev. Alban McQuire, O.F.M., Chaplain of the Newman Club at the University of Mary- land, deacons of honor to the archbishop: the Rev. John A. Smith, S. J., Georgetown Univers- ity, deacon; the Rev. Aloysius K. Ziegler. Catholic University, sub- deacon; the Rev. Walter J. Schmitz, S.S., master of cere- monies, and the Rev. W. Louis Quinn, assistant master of cere- monies. Before the mass members of the senior classes at Catholic Uni- versity, Dunbarton College of Holy Cross, George Washington Uni- versity, Georgetown University, Howard University, the University of Maryland and Trinity College marched in procession from Cal- vert School into the cathedral. The senior students wore caps and gowns and members of the teach- ing staffs were in academic cos- tume. Members of the Fourth Degree Knights of Columbus, wearing sashes and swords, served as guards of honor for the pro- cession. Interfederafion Is Urged To Check on Hospital Act The Hill-Burton Act for pro- viding public funds for hospitals should be “explored” for applica- tion to local hospitals, the Inter- federation Council was told last night by Clifford H. Newell, for- mer president of the District Federation of Citizens' Associa- tions. t The act requires that the State supply funds equal to the amount provided by the Federal Govern- ment. This is one of the features of the act Mr. Newell believes should be investigated. Chairman of standing commit-; tees for 1949 were announced as follows: Daniel Green, Prince George’s County, law and legisla- tion; H. H. Snellings, Montgomery County, public utilities; Mrs. F. G. Sartwell of the District, safety, police and fire protection; R. C. Potts, Montgomery County, zoning, highways and bridges, rivers and harbors, city and planning and parks; H. N. Stull of the District, education; H. A. Ward, Fairfax County, fiscal relations and taxes; H. N. Eaton, Montgomery County, public welfare and health, and R. H.

John Meiklejohn, 81, Founder of Takoma Coal Company, Dies John Meiklejohn, 81, founder of the coal and fuel company in Takoma, D. C., that bears his name, died last night at Washing- ton Sanitarium of complica- tions resulting from a broken hipi^.j ,j ;-| He tgiflered a fractured hip when he fell down the steps of his h o m e. 6728 Second street N.W., a year ago. Mr. Meikle- ,john was born in Scotland, but had lived in Mr. Meiklrjohn. Washington since he was 2 years old. He attended Soldiers’ Home School, Spencerian Business Col- lege and Wood’s Commercial Col- lege. Began Career in 1887. He began his long career in 1887 as a delivery boy with Kelly Bros., a grocery, ice and fuel store in Takoma Park. Later he oper- ated his own grocery at 5815 Blair road N.W. and developed an ice business there in 1898. Mr. Meiklejohn founded his fuel business in 1901. He was presi- dent until last December when he sold the firm. Mr. Meiklejohn had been known as "Honest John” since World War I days when he appeared be- fore a Senate committee investi- gating retail selling practices of coal dealers. When he took the stand the late Senator Copeland of New York told his colleagues: "Here is a man whose word we need not question. He is an honest dealer.” Afterwards his fellow members of the coal mer- chants’ association called him "Honest John.” Member of Many Groups. Mr. Meiklejohn was twice pa- tron of Eastern Star Order No. 12 and a member of the Takoma Park Masonic lodge. Odd Fellows, Takoma Park Chambers of Com- merce, Association of Oldest In- habitants and Takoma Park Citi- zens' Association. He also was secretary of the former Woodburn Citizens’ Asso- ciation. In this capacity he was active in obtaining a new school in place of the Old Soldiers’ Home School, which was constructed as the Woodburn School and is now called the Keene School. He is survived by three daughters, Mrs. Margaret Wilbar, 4001 Twenty-first street N.E., and Mrs. Jane Estopinal and Mrs. Helen Bolton, with whom he lived. Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. Thursday at Takoma Park Presbyterian Church, Maple and Tulip avenues. Burial will be in Rock Creek Cemetery. Col. George Green Dies; Paris ECA Representative By the Associated Press MIAMI BEACH. Fla., Feb. 22.— Col. George A. Green, 66, former vice president of General Motors and a Paris representative of the Economic Cooperative Adminis- tration. died yesterday. Col. Green had a home here on Sunset Island. He was taken ill in Paris three weeks ago and treated at the American Hospital. He returned to Miami Beach to enter St. Francis Hospital, where he died. With him were Mrs. Green; his daughter, Mrs. G. A. Dever of Chicago; a grandaughter, Denise Dever, and a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Thomas A. Green. Funeral plans have not been completed. Providence (Continued From First Page.) the new hospital is completed— that Providence will abandon completely the Southeast build- ings. "The present thinking’’ is that the hospital’s present out-patient clinic and possibly its day nursery “could be advantageously operat- ed in conjunction with the new hospital in the Brookland area,” authorities stated. Meanwhile, there will be no change or curtailment in services at the present institution, they said. Officials decided it would not be feasible to rebuild Providence— Washington’s first large medical center—at its present site because of the inadequacy of its present land and because hospital oper- ations would have to be discon- tinued during the rebuilding. At the same time, they pointed out there is no large hospital in Brookland and that “the proposed construction would fill a real need for hospital and clinic facilities In the Northeast area. Streetcar Rider Jailed for Pulling Knife on Operator A streetcar passenger who re- acted unkindly when the «motor- man pointed out his streetcar pass on the seat beside him yesterday was jailed for 90 days. Charles A. Jackson, 59, colored, of the 4400 block of A street S.E. was convicted in Municipal Court of carrying a pocket knife and ] using it to threaten Capital Transit | Motorman I. R. Jones, 4309 North | Fourth street. Arlington. Mr. Jones told Judge Walter J. i Casey that at 2 a.m. Sunday, as |he was driving his streetcar into I the Kenilworth terminal, he noticed Jackson asleep on a seat, j Jackson's pass was beside him. When he awakened him and point- ! ed out the pass, the motorman said, Jackson pulled a knife from his pocket and declared: Don’t mess with me. I'm from Georgia and I'm a mean man.” Mr. Jones added that Jackson then advanced on him with the drawn knife and threatened, “I’ll cut your heart out.” The mo- torman said he called a police- man, who happened to be passing by. The knife was found in Jack- son's hat, where he had tried to hide it, Mr. Jones said. Group Votes Confidence In Federation Officers The Chevy Chase Citizens' Asso- ciation last night gave a vote of I confidence to John H. Connaugh- ton, president of the Federation of Citizens’ Association and the other officers of that body for their conduct of the federation's meetings. This action by the Chevy Chase group, meeting in the Chevy Chase Community Center, Connecticut avenue and McKinley street N.W., was in opposition to a resolution adopted by the Northwest Council last month. The council had complained that the Federation was not being operated in ac- cordance with Robert’s Rules of Order and that decisions fre- quently were made without ade- quate discussion beforehand. The council also had attacked the Federation as not being prop- erly representative of its member bodies. The association heard Capt. John E. Fondahl of No. 8 precinct, explain the work of his unit and some of its personnel problems. Also speaking on the program were Edmund E. Pendleton, jr., and Gilbert Hahn, jr., of the Young Republican Club of the District, who discussed the pro- posed sales tax. The group re- affirmed its support of the meas- ure. The meeting was conducted by Dean P. Kimball, president. Protestant (Continued From First Page.) tist Churches, signed by St. Enchev as president and P. Fortunov, sec- retary, said: “The fatherland authority and Dimitrov's constitution (Com- munist Premier Georgi Dimitrov) gave us full religious freedom. We ; are disgusted and condemn the 1 treacherous activity of our united church’s leaders and pastors.” A declaration signed by Bishop Krikor of the Armenian Church said: “Being witnesses of the con- spirative activity of some Protest- ant church leaders, we express our indignatiop of their treacher- ous activity toward the Bulgarian people and state.” The 15 churchmen, of the Bap- tist, Congregational, Pentecost and Methodist churches, have been accused of conspiring with British and American churchmen and Embassy officials against the Bulgarian government. New Comet Seen in Russia A new comet seen by astron- omers at Stalinabad, in the south- ernmost area of Russia, is de- scribed as the brightest in 10 years. , Sailor Wins Custody Of Boy, 2, Left in Care Of Grandmother Here Alex T. Sempek, 24, a Navy gun- ner’s mate stationed at the sub- marine base at Orange, Tex., was to leave today for his station with his 2-year-old son, Robert Allen Sempek, whose custody he won in a District Court habeas corpus ac- tion yesterday. Judge Henry A. Schweinhaut ruled that the maternal grand- mother, Mrs. Margaret Buckley, 57, 2248 Shannon place S.E., must relinquish custody of the child, whose mother is dead. Robert and his mother had lived with the grandmother al- most since he was born, the court was told. Robert remained with his grandmother after the death of his mother. Mr. Sempek, who had been away on duty most of the time testified he did not learn of his wife's death until January 25. He remarried in Texas on February 2. His present wife is a former WAC and has a 3-year-old son by a former mar- riage, according to counsel, and is anxious to rear Robert with her own son. Mr. Sempek was represented in the case by Attorney Donald H. Dalton. Mrs. Buckley's attorney, John H. Coffman, said the child's grandmother was to turn the boy over to his father at 10 a.m. today. Mr. Coffman said the court action was on a friendly basis. Labor (Continued From First Page.) suiting Communist affidavit and filing requirements.” As for the law as a whole, Mr. Van Arkel said: ‘‘I have been opposed to the act because, in my judgment, it is un- j fair, unworkable, and one-sided.” Following the hearings, which are due to end tomorrow, the committee’s 8-5 Democratic ma- jority is expected to approve the administration's bill with perhaps minor changes. Appeals to Republicans. Chairman Thomas, sponsor of the administration bill, appealed to the committee's Republicans late yesterday to exercise “good will” and help speed the measure to the floor even if they oppose it later in the Senate debate. “Let's discuss it where there's more room, over in the Senate,” he said during the hearing. But the Republicans are pretty sure to demand their right to argue—even in the committee ses- sions—for certain Taft-Hartley provisions they want to tack to the Thomas bill. "I would like to have the privi- lege of reasonable discussion,” Senator Donnell, Republican, of Missouri fold a reporter. Senator Donnell especially wants to preserve a Taft-Hartley provi- sions authorizing the Government to delay “National emergency” strikes by means of 80-day in- junctions. Clashes With Whitney. Yesterday he clashed repeatedly on this subject with a labor wit- ness, Byrl A. Whitney, educational director of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen. Senator Donnell kept pounding away on the point that the two- day railroad strike of May, 1946, and the near-strike of May, 1948, were not prevented by the emer- gency board procedure of the Railway Labor Act—which is sim- ilar to the procedure proposed in the Thomas bill. Mr. Whitney retorted that labor injunctions are “the weapon of a coward,” that the Taft-Hartley Act is “the most immoral and in- decent law I've ever seen,” and that Senator Donnell’s injunction attitude is a "close approach to totalitarianism.” Former Representative Fred A. Hartley, jr„ Republican, of New Jersey, co-author of the Taft- Hartley law, defended it and urged its retention last night, while Senator Pepper, Democrat, of Florida labeled it “a product of anger.” Both spoke over Station WOL on the American Forum of the Air. Mr. Hartley declared that at no time had he declared the law "per- fect” or that amendments should not be made. Senator Pepper said the law “was like prohibition—a great ex- periment, but it did not work.” He labeled it as "antilabor, un- democratic and a product of bad relations.” Mr. Hartley, predicting its re- tention in principle, said the pro- visions have “proved their worth, should be retained and the law should be amended where amend- ment is in order.” South Africa Fights Termites South Africa plans drastic ac- tion to check ravages of an unwel- come “immigrant” from Jamaica, the West African drywood termite, which has caused millions of dol- lars’ worth of damage in some coastal towns. European veterinary surgeons met recently in Poland to plan a fight against contagious diseases of domestic animals. THREE-WHEELER—The new tear-drop shaped Davis auto, with a $995 f.o.b. price tag when it hits the market, was shown at Hotel Statler last night.

Visitor at Meeting Turns Speaker to Tell of Edison A young mother, who as an im- pressionable girl of 12, helped Thomas Edison celebrate his 79th birthday, shared her recollections with the Lincoln Park Citizens’ Association last nigljt. .. At a meeting in the Epworth Methodist Church, Thirteenth street and North Carolina avenue, N.E., Mrs. Josephine O. Taylor told of her meeting with “the Wizard of Menlo Park.” Mrs. Taylor attended with no idea that she was going to be a part of the program. Her young son, Harry Lee Taylor, is a Boy Scout, who recently saved a youn- ger Scout from bleeding to death from an ax wound. The associa- tion heard of the boy’s heroism and asked him to come and tell them about it. Mrs. Taylor came along. When she learned that the group planned to eulogize Edison —along with Washington and Lin- coln—she offered her unusual ex- perience. “My mother started it all off,” Mrs. Taylor related, “by being born on the same day as Mr. Edi- son—February 11. When mother learned that they had the same birthday, she wrote to him. He answered her immediately with quite a long letter, which began a 10-year correspondence between the two.” In the second letter, Mrs. Taylor said, Edison extended a standing invitation to visit him, but "for 10 years we didn’t take him up.” In Edison’s 78th year, however, a relative of Mrs. Taylor, James E. True, an artist, painted the in- ventor’s portrait. “We all used to go to Florida near Edison’s home in the winter,” Mrs. Taylor recalled, “so we decid- ed to make the formal presenta- tion of the painting on his 79th birthday. On that day the whole family drove over to his estate at Fort Myers with it. There was a great line of people waiting for a glimpse of him, but we were the only ones admitted. “I was breathless when we met him. He was a short man with merry eyes, but was kind of solemn around the mouth. He made you feel right at home because he was very funny.” Mrs. Tayor remembered seeing his laboratory, but “he wouldn’t let us go in.” She also recalled he joshed about his neighbor’s inabil- ity to grow rubber “for his tin- lizzies.” The neighbor was the late Henry Ford. Three Civilians Try Out Jets and Subs, Decide Military Is Underpaid By tht Associated Press Three middle-aged businessmen who have flown in jet bombers and crash-dived in submarines agreed today that the armed forces are underpaid. The three, members of an all- civilian commission appointed to study the Nation's military pay and pension systems, were recalled for more testimony before a House Armed Services Subcommittee. Chairman of the commission is Charles R. Hook, chairman of the Armco Steel Corp. The other members are Father John Cav- anaugh, president of Notre Dame University: Keith S. McHugh, vice president of the American Tele- phone Co., and Lawrence H. Whit- ing. president of Whiting & Co., and of the American Furniture Mart of Chicago. Secretary of Defense Forrestal was the first witness yesterday as the subcommittee opened hearings on a bill to arise military pay an average of 14 per cent and add about $400,000,000 to national de- fense costs next year. Range of Increases. The bil would hand out increases j ranging between 3.03 per cent and 49.58 per cent to enlisted men and officers of the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Public Health Service, and the Coast and Geodetic Survey. Mr. Whiting told the subcom- mittee how the commission got its information. It asked the help of 150 uni- versities and colleges, he said, and called on 100 industrial and busi- ness firms for advice on how much a soldier with technical know- how and heavy responsibilities should be paid. “Then we went out and flew in everything the Air Force has that flies.” he said. "We went on maneuvers with the fleet to watch carriers, and crash-dived in a submarine. We talked to the men on hazardous duty, and saw what they do. "About all we missed was nurs- ing lepers and underwater demoli- tions.” Costs Are Estimated. Mr. Whiting said the commis- sion estimates its recommended pay increases would add up to about $440,000,000 the first year. The commission thinks most of it should go to enlisted men of the third and fourth grades—such as Army sergeants—and officers com- paring in rank with Army first lieutenants and captains. Mr. Forrestal set the estimated cost a notch lower. He judged it would amount to about $400,000, 000, and would taper off to about $280,000,000 a year after five years. He recalled that President Tru- man's defense budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1 carries $400,000,000 for additional mili- tary pay. The bill would give the heaviest percentage increase to generals, and their counterparts in the other services. Since 1908, Mr. Whiting said, top officers have Wad pay in- reases of only about 10 per cent, while the lowest enlisted grades have been boosted as much as 400 per cent. G. W. U. to Award Degrees To Class of 646 Tonight George Washington University, one of the beneficiaries in George Washington's will, is to award de- grees to 646 mid-year graduates during convocation exercises in Constitution Hall at 8 o’clock to- night.

Trial of Protestants Also to Be Mimicry, O'Boyle Tells 1,200

The trial of 15 Protestant min- isters in Bulgaria will be another mimicry of justice, the Most Rev. Patrick A. O’Boyle, Archibshop of Washington, declared today at citizenship ceremonies in St. Mat- thew’s Cathedral.

Archbishop O’Boyle told 1,200 officials, educators and students that the Protestant ministers are new victims of the Communist philosophy “which defies God and the sacred character of the indi- vidual in order to defy and en- throne the omnipotent state. May God give these ministers strength to bear their heavy burdens.”

“When from behind the rude wall of the Iron Curtain,” Arch- bishop O’Boyle said, “I catch faint voices of an oppressed people silenced under fictions of godless laws, I thank God I am an Amer- ican, whose forefathers forged into iron law that man is a crea- ture of G*W, God’s own property, and endowed in the equality of human nature with rights that none may deny, despise or

despoil.” Asks Prayers for Victims.

He asked prayers for those who suffer persecution for justice’s sake.

“We do not sing the stupid praises of dictators as if rights come from them alone,” the prel- ate declared, “and we have been moved and shocked at what citizenship exacts of others behind what the world has learned to call the Iron Curtain.”

He said the Iron Curtain is grim and foreboding, a hard and cold impasse which forbids light for anything else in its stern unyield- ing barrier.

Archbishop O’Boyle made his at- tack on religious persecution in Eastern Europe after presiding at Solemn High Mass this morning in the Cathedral for the welfare of America. It was the George Washington birthday even at the Cathedral.

Before the archbishop spoke, the Right Rev. John K. Cart- wright, rector of St. Matthew's, also attacked the Communist philosophy in the principal sermon.

Behind the Iron Curtain, Msgr. Cartwright said, millions of serfs are guaranteed no rights but physical existence. This des- potism, he declared, is enforced by the prisons and truncheons of a brutal police.

The Catholic Prelates, Arch- bishop Alojzijc Stepinac of Yugo- slavia and Josef Cardinal Miftds- zenty of Hungary and Bishop Lajos Ordas, Lutheran primate of Hungary, represent God, the soul and freedom, the Monsignor con- tinued. Therefore, he said, in the exact logic of an evil policy they must be destroyed.

.Msgr. Cartwright told the as-

semblage that if George Wash- ington were to return today ‘‘his knightly sword would come 6ut of its scabbard to salute the kindred hero soul beneath the bishop's cross of Mindszenty.” j

Participants in Mass. In the mass that preceded the

sermons, the ^celebrant was the Rt. Rev. Patrick J. McCormick, S.T.L., rector of Catholic Univers- ity. Other participants in the j mass were: The Rev. Titus i Cranny, O.S.A., chaplain of the' Newman Club at Howard Univers- ity, and the Rev. Alban McQuire, O.F.M., Chaplain of the Newman Club at the University of Mary- land, deacons of honor to the archbishop: the Rev. John A. Smith, S. J., Georgetown Univers- ity, deacon; the Rev. Aloysius K. Ziegler. Catholic University, sub- deacon; the Rev. Walter J. Schmitz, S.S., master of cere-

monies, and the Rev. W. Louis Quinn, assistant master of cere- monies.

Before the mass members of the senior classes at Catholic Uni- versity, Dunbarton College of Holy Cross, George Washington Uni- versity, Georgetown University, Howard University, the University of Maryland and Trinity College marched in procession from Cal- vert School into the cathedral. The senior students wore caps and gowns and members of the teach- ing staffs were in academic cos- tume. Members of the Fourth Degree Knights of Columbus, wearing sashes and swords, served as guards of honor for the pro- cession.

Interfederafion Is Urged To Check on Hospital Act

The Hill-Burton Act for pro- viding public funds for hospitals should be “explored” for applica- tion to local hospitals, the Inter- federation Council was told last night by Clifford H. Newell, for- mer president of the District Federation of Citizens' Associa- tions. t

The act requires that the State supply funds equal to the amount provided by the Federal Govern- ment. This is one of the features of the act Mr. Newell believes should be investigated.

He began his long career in 1887 as a delivery boy with Kelly Bros., a grocery, ice and fuel store in Takoma Park. Later he oper- ated his own grocery at 5815 Blair road N.W. and developed an ice business there in 1898.

Mr. Meiklejohn founded his fuel business in 1901. He was presi- dent until last December when he sold the firm.

Mr. Meiklejohn had been known as "Honest John” since World War I days when he appeared be- fore a Senate committee investi- gating retail selling practices of coal dealers. When he took the stand the late Senator Copeland of New York told his colleagues: "Here is a man whose word we

need not question. He is an

honest dealer.” Afterwards his fellow members of the coal mer-

chants’ association called him "Honest John.”

the Woodburn School and is now

called the Keene School. He is survived by three

daughters, Mrs. Margaret Wilbar, 4001 Twenty-first street N.E., and Mrs. Jane Estopinal and Mrs. Helen Bolton, with whom he lived.

Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. Thursday at Takoma Park Presbyterian Church, Maple and Tulip avenues. Burial will be in Rock Creek Cemetery.

Col. George Green Dies; Paris ECA Representative

By the Associated Press

MIAMI BEACH. Fla., Feb. 22.— Col. George A. Green, 66, former vice president of General Motors and a Paris representative of the Economic Cooperative Adminis- tration. died yesterday.

Col. Green had a home here on Sunset Island. He was taken ill in Paris three weeks ago and treated at the American Hospital. He returned to Miami Beach to enter St. Francis Hospital, where he died.

With him were Mrs. Green; his daughter, Mrs. G. A. Dever of Chicago; a grandaughter, Denise Dever, and a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Thomas A. Green.

Funeral plans have not been completed.

Providence (Continued From First Page.)

the new hospital is completed— that Providence will abandon completely the Southeast build- ings.

"The present thinking’’ is that the hospital’s present out-patient clinic and possibly its day nursery “could be advantageously operat- ed in conjunction with the new

hospital in the Brookland area,” authorities stated.

Meanwhile, there will be no change or curtailment in services at the present institution, they said.

Officials decided it would not be feasible to rebuild Providence— Washington’s first large medical center—at its present site because of the inadequacy of its present land and because hospital oper- ations would have to be discon- tinued during the rebuilding.

At the same time, they pointed out there is no large hospital in Brookland and that “the proposed construction would fill a real need for hospital and clinic facilities In the Northeast area.

Streetcar Rider Jailed for Pulling Knife on Operator A streetcar passenger who re-

acted unkindly when the «motor- man pointed out his streetcar pass on the seat beside him yesterday was jailed for 90 days.

Charles A. Jackson, 59, colored, of the 4400 block of A street S.E. was convicted in Municipal Court of carrying a pocket knife and

] using it to threaten Capital Transit | Motorman I. R. Jones, 4309 North | Fourth street. Arlington.

Mr. Jones told Judge Walter J. i Casey that at 2 a.m. Sunday, as

|he was driving his streetcar into I the Kenilworth terminal, he noticed Jackson asleep on a seat,

j Jackson's pass was beside him. When he awakened him and point-

! ed out the pass, the motorman said, Jackson pulled a knife from his pocket and declared:

Don’t mess with me. I'm from Georgia and I'm a mean man.”

Mr. Jones added that Jackson then advanced on him with the drawn knife and threatened, “I’ll cut your heart out.” The mo- torman said he called a police- man, who happened to be passing by. The knife was found in Jack- son's hat, where he had tried to hide it, Mr. Jones said.

Group Votes Confidence In Federation Officers

The Chevy Chase Citizens' Asso- ciation last night gave a vote of

I confidence to John H. Connaugh- ton, president of the Federation of Citizens’ Association and the other officers of that body for their conduct of the federation's meetings.

This action by the Chevy Chase group, meeting in the Chevy Chase Community Center, Connecticut avenue and McKinley street N.W., was in opposition to a resolution adopted by the Northwest Council last month. The council had complained that the Federation was not being operated in ac- cordance with Robert’s Rules of Order and that decisions fre- quently were made without ade- quate discussion beforehand.

The council also had attacked the Federation as not being prop- erly representative of its member bodies.

The association heard Capt. John E. Fondahl of No. 8 precinct, explain the work of his unit and some of its personnel problems.

Also speaking on the program were Edmund E. Pendleton, jr., and Gilbert Hahn, jr., of the Young Republican Club of the District, who discussed the pro- posed sales tax. The group re- affirmed its support of the meas- ure.

The meeting was conducted by Dean P. Kimball, president.

Sailor Wins Custody Of Boy, 2, Left in Care Of Grandmother Here

Alex T. Sempek, 24, a Navy gun- ner’s mate stationed at the sub- marine base at Orange, Tex., was to leave today for his station with his 2-year-old son, Robert Allen Sempek, whose custody he won in a District Court habeas corpus ac- tion yesterday.

Judge Henry A. Schweinhaut ruled that the maternal grand- mother, Mrs. Margaret Buckley, 57, 2248 Shannon place S.E., must relinquish custody of the child, whose mother is dead.

Robert and his mother had lived with the grandmother al- most since he was born, the court was told. Robert remained with his grandmother after the death of his mother.

Mr. Sempek, who had been away on duty most of the time testified he did not learn of his wife's death until January 25. He remarried in Texas on February 2. His present wife is a former WAC and has a 3-year-old son by a former mar- riage, according to counsel, and is anxious to rear Robert with her own son.

Mr. Sempek was represented in the case by Attorney Donald H. Dalton.

Mrs. Buckley's attorney, John H. Coffman, said the child's grandmother was to turn the boy over to his father at 10 a.m. today. Mr. Coffman said the court action was on a friendly basis.

suiting Communist affidavit and filing requirements.”

As for the law as a whole, Mr. Van Arkel said:

‘‘I have been opposed to the act because, in my judgment, it is un- j fair, unworkable, and one-sided.”

Following the hearings, which are due to end tomorrow, the committee’s 8-5 Democratic ma-

jority is expected to approve the administration's bill with perhaps minor changes.

Appeals to Republicans. Chairman Thomas, sponsor of

the administration bill, appealed to the committee's Republicans late yesterday to exercise “good will” and help speed the measure to the floor even if they oppose it later in the Senate debate.

“Let's discuss it where there's more room, over in the Senate,” he said during the hearing.

But the Republicans are pretty sure to demand their right to argue—even in the committee ses- sions—for certain Taft-Hartley provisions they want to tack to the Thomas bill.

"I would like to have the privi- lege of reasonable discussion,” Senator Donnell, Republican, of Missouri fold a reporter.

Senator Donnell especially wants to preserve a Taft-Hartley provi- sions authorizing the Government to delay “National emergency” strikes by means of 80-day in- junctions.

Clashes With Whitney. Yesterday he clashed repeatedly

on this subject with a labor wit- ness, Byrl A. Whitney, educational director of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen.

Senator Donnell kept pounding away on the point that the two- day railroad strike of May, 1946, and the near-strike of May, 1948, were not prevented by the emer-

gency board procedure of the Railway Labor Act—which is sim- ilar to the procedure proposed in the Thomas bill.

Mr. Whitney retorted that labor injunctions are “the weapon of a

coward,” that the Taft-Hartley Act is “the most immoral and in- decent law I've ever seen,” and that Senator Donnell’s injunction attitude is a "close approach to totalitarianism.”

Former Representative Fred A. Hartley, jr„ Republican, of New Jersey, co-author of the Taft- Hartley law, defended it and urged its retention last night, while Senator Pepper, Democrat, of Florida labeled it “a product of anger.” Both spoke over Station WOL on the American Forum of the Air.

Mr. Hartley declared that at no

time had he declared the law "per- fect” or that amendments should not be made.

Senator Pepper said the law “was like prohibition—a great ex-

periment, but it did not work.” He labeled it as "antilabor, un- democratic and a product of bad relations.”

Mr. Hartley, predicting its re- tention in principle, said the pro- visions have “proved their worth, should be retained and the law should be amended where amend- ment is in order.”

Visitor at Meeting Turns Speaker to Tell of Edison

A young mother, who as an im- pressionable girl of 12, helped Thomas Edison celebrate his 79th birthday, shared her recollections with the Lincoln Park Citizens’ Association last nigljt. ..

At a meeting in the Epworth Methodist Church, Thirteenth street and North Carolina avenue, N.E., Mrs. Josephine O. Taylor told of her meeting with “the Wizard of Menlo Park.”

Mrs. Taylor attended with no idea that she was going to be a

part of the program. Her young son, Harry Lee Taylor, is a Boy Scout, who recently saved a youn- ger Scout from bleeding to death from an ax wound. The associa- tion heard of the boy’s heroism and asked him to come and tell them about it. Mrs. Taylor came

along. When she learned that the group planned to eulogize Edison —along with Washington and Lin- coln—she offered her unusual ex-

perience. “My mother started it all off,”

Mrs. Taylor related, “by being born on the same day as Mr. Edi- son—February 11. When mother learned that they had the same

birthday, she wrote to him. He answered her immediately with quite a long letter, which began

a 10-year correspondence between the two.”

In the second letter, Mrs. Taylor said, Edison extended a standing invitation to visit him, but "for 10 years we didn’t take him up.”

In Edison’s 78th year, however, a relative of Mrs. Taylor, James E. True, an artist, painted the in- ventor’s portrait.

“We all used to go to Florida near Edison’s home in the winter,” Mrs. Taylor recalled, “so we decid- ed to make the formal presenta- tion of the painting on his 79th birthday. On that day the whole family drove over to his estate at Fort Myers with it. There was a

great line of people waiting for a glimpse of him, but we were the only ones admitted.

“I was breathless when we met him. He was a short man with merry eyes, but was kind of solemn around the mouth. He made you feel right at home because he was very funny.”

Mrs. Tayor remembered seeing his laboratory, but “he wouldn’t let us go in.” She also recalled he joshed about his neighbor’s inabil- ity to grow rubber “for his tin- lizzies.”

The neighbor was the late Henry Ford.

Three Civilians Try Out Jets and Subs, Decide Military Is Underpaid

By tht Associated Press

Three middle-aged businessmen who have flown in jet bombers

and crash-dived in submarines

agreed today that the armed

forces are underpaid. The three, members of an all-

civilian commission appointed to

study the Nation's military pay and pension systems, were recalled for more testimony before a House Armed Services Subcommittee.

Chairman of the commission is Charles R. Hook, chairman of the Armco Steel Corp. The other members are Father John Cav- anaugh, president of Notre Dame University: Keith S. McHugh, vice

president of the American Tele- phone Co., and Lawrence H. Whit- ing. president of Whiting & Co., and of the American Furniture Mart of Chicago.

Secretary of Defense Forrestal was the first witness yesterday as

the subcommittee opened hearings on a bill to arise military pay an

average of 14 per cent and add about $400,000,000 to national de- fense costs next year.

Range of Increases.

The bil would hand out increases

j ranging between 3.03 per cent and 49.58 per cent to enlisted men and officers of the Army, Navy, Air

Force, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Public Health Service, and the Coast and Geodetic Survey.

Mr. Whiting told the subcom- mittee how the commission got its information.

It asked the help of 150 uni- versities and colleges, he said, and called on 100 industrial and busi- ness firms for advice on how much a soldier with technical know- how and heavy responsibilities should be paid.

“Then we went out and flew in

everything the Air Force has that flies.” he said. "We went on

maneuvers with the fleet to watch carriers, and crash-dived in a

submarine. We talked to the men

on hazardous duty, and saw what

they do. "About all we missed was nurs-

ing lepers and underwater demoli- tions.”

Costs Are Estimated. Mr. Whiting said the commis-

sion estimates its recommended pay increases would add up to

about $440,000,000 the first year. The commission thinks most of it

should go to enlisted men of the

third and fourth grades—such as

Army sergeants—and officers com-

paring in rank with Army first

lieutenants and captains. Mr. Forrestal set the estimated

cost a notch lower. He judged it

would amount to about $400,000, 000, and would taper off to about

$280,000,000 a year after five years. He recalled that President Tru- man's defense budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1 carries

$400,000,000 for additional mili-

tary pay. The bill would give the heaviest

percentage increase to generals, and their counterparts in the other services. Since 1908, Mr. Whiting said, top officers have Wad pay in-

reases of only about 10 per cent, while the lowest enlisted grades have been boosted as much as

400 per cent.
