Jewish doctors and health clinics treat the Arab sick and give Be- douin mothers advice on their children. Although the doctors are now received with honor, one said on his first visit to a tribe the Arabs thought he was a tax col- lector in disguise. Despite their acceptance of many phases of modern medicine, the Bedouin women invariably refuse to have their babies in hospitals.

Mental Care Is Planned For Prison Inmate SACRAMENTO, Calif. “#—Wes- ley Robert Wells, once sentenced to death for striking a guard with a cuspidor, has been ordered trans- ferred from San Quentin Prison to the California medical facility at Terminal Island for phychiatric treatment. Richard A. McGee, state direc- tor of corrections, said the 44-year- old prisoner is not insane but “it is felt that phychiatric direction will provide the best opportunity for him to receive treatment de- signed to reduce the aggressive type of behavior that has char- acterized his record in the past.” Wells’ death sentence was com- muted by Gov. Goodwin J. Knight March 31 to life imprisonment without possibility of parole. The sentence stirred up nationwide criticism. _The Folsom Prison guard he was accused of attack- ing did not die, but state law pro- vides death for any lifer convicted of assault against a guard.

Javits (R- NY) said last night he feared the new For America group “‘will be- come a cover for all kinds of bigotry and hate which have al- ways sought this kind of cover.” Former Rep. Hamilton Fish, a For America founder, denied it. Javits and Fish discussed the movement in a TV debate, The organization of For America was announced early this month, Fish, a Republican, predicted the group would grow rapidly, He said it seeks all, regardless of race, creed or color, who oppose “super- nationalism, interventionism, one- worldism and communism.” Read The Citizen Classified Ads For REAL Bargains! shipment of arms cargo by the ship to Guatemala “was effected under the conditions considered far from normal.” Because of these conditions and the complete sec- recy surrounding the arrival and loading of the ship at Pureto Bar- trios, it has not been possible at present to obtain desired informa- tion from the officers of the vessel concerning the transaction. “The officers and crew members who are being questioned are co- operating on a purely voluntary ba- is.” F AP Story Earlier today, the Associated Press moved the following story from Washington: WASHINGTON (#—The Swedish ship which delivered Communist- made arms to Guatemala is now at Key West, Fla., where the cap- tain and crew are being questioned by U.S. officials. This was disclosed today by State Department Press Officer Lincoln White in response to questions by newsmen. White issued a brief statement and said he could add nothing to it at this time. The statement said the owners of the Swedish ship Alphelm or- dered it to put in at Key West. It said this was the first chance U.S. officials had to get information about the delivery of arms to Guatemala from the Communist rt of Stettin in Poland. The captain and crew are being questioned “on a purely voluntary basis,” White said. The State Department revealed May 17 that the Alphelm had un- loaded at Puerto Barrios, Guate- mala, about 10 million dollars in small arms and ammunitions. ‘The United States reacted by fly- ing about 70 tons of war goods, including light arms and jeeps, to Nicaragua and Honduras, neigh- Dors of Guatemala. Other deliv- eries by sea are expected to follow.

No answer. The officer in the boat was ‘wearing a holster and a pistol. After several attempts to get aboard the vessel The Citizen boat returned to port. FRANCE WILL CALL (Continued from Page One) Indochina since the fall of Dien Bien Phu. There was no suggestion, how- ever, that plans were in the wind to send draftees to Indochina. That would be an explosive change in policy. The only men who actually will be sent to Indochina to fight the Communist-led Vietminh will be professional soldiers. A French law 1950 prevents sending draftees to fight outside France. The hurriedly called up rem- nants of the 1954 class will be sta- tioned in France or quiet areas in North Africa to replace profession- al soldiers sent to Indochina. The cabinet spokesman did not give any indication that the cabinet had dis- cussed changing the 1950 law. COHN DISPUTES (Continued from Page One) McCarthy so advised the investi- gating senators in a letter. Democratic senators and Army Counsel Joseph N. Welch had in- sisted Carr’s testimony was neces- sary, and had protested the action of the Republican majority in dropping Carr Wednesday as a principal in the case. Jenkins swung to cross-examina- tion after Cohn, in direct testi- mony, had repeatedly contradicted sworn testimony from Secretary Stevens and Army Counselor John G. Adams. The clash of testimony accented the possibility that one outcome of the whole bristling controversy could be a perjury charge against some of those involved. Charge Denied Jenkins recalled that Stevens had testified to a recollection that at a Sept. 16 breakfast in the Schine apartment McCarthy urged that Schine be given a commission. “He (McCarthy) did not, sir, he did not, sir,” Cohn testified em- Phatically. Cohn said that Stevens later had qualified his testimony by saying that his recollection was “hazy” about the occasion. Cohn said his memory was clear. “I know that on that occasion and on no other occasion in my presence did Sen. McCarthy ask for a commission for Schine,” Cohn declared. : He added: “There was not any discussion of any special favor or dispensa- tions for David Schine.” Cohn had testified that on an earlier occasion, July 8, McCarthy had asked Gen. Reber to determine if Schine was qualified for an Army commission. But Cohn in- sfsted this was not a request for action, In As Private He said Reber at first said Schine was qualified for a com- mission but later “retreated” from this stand and none was granted. Schine was inducted as a private on Nov. 3. Reber had testified Schine was turned down by the Army as being unqualified for a commission, al- though Reber said he carried the matter to the top of the Army, Cohn also disputed testimony by ‘ Stevens on what was at a conference in Stevens’ signed to make a critic: West Point text books. + study pay the ticket. While en route to the station the man Was arresteg for reckless driving. Could Have Benn Avoided It was pointed out that the man was probably angry because he was being ordered to the police station and also that the police of. ficer was angry because he had incid stated that the whole might have been avoided if th police officer had let due process of law take place. Technically the man could not be ordered to the police station to pay the parking ticket but he could to|be ordered to go down and post Po-|bond. The word “bond” had not been mentoned when the officer ordered the man to the station. A warrant is issued for parking violations if the violator does not show up at the police station within 24 hours.
