Butcher, 34, a soldier 11 years, says the Army promised to send him to Germany when he reenlisted. So he and his German-born wife planned happily for the move. Dur- ing his last two years of duty at Ft. Riley, Kan., Mrs. Butcher worked in an Abilene, Kan., bank and saved money for the trip to see her parents again. It didn’t quite work out that way, though. Today the sergeant shoves off for Japan. His ‘wife and their 2-year-old daughter are going to Germany for a visit anyhow.

VERDICT ON MRS. ° (Continued from Page One) three men on five counts of as- sault with a dangerous weapon, whispered. when she heard the verdict: “I don’t see why they don’t con- vict me too.’”” With five charges of assault with intent to kill still outstanding against the woman defendant, U.S. Dist. Judge Alexander Holtzoff sent the jury home for the night and told them to return today to pass final judgment. Mrs. Lebron’s fellow Puerto Ri- cans gave no show of emotion up- on hearing the verdict, which -car- ries a maximum penalty of 75 years in prison. But soon after- wards Cancel and Cordero chatted and smiled, and Flores, although not smiling, joined briefly in the conversation.y All four admit to opening up with wild pistol fire from the House gallery. Five congressmen were wounded. But the Puerto Ri- can Nationalists say they meant to kill or harm no one, their only aim being to dramatize their de- mand for Puerto Rican indepen- dence. Under the law, each defendant could possibly receive a sentence of up to 10 years apiece on each of the weapons counts and 15 years apiece on each of the in- tent-to-kill counts, or a maximum of 125 years. The judge has dis- cretion as to whether the sentences should run concurrently, howe’ and Judge Holtzoff i he will not impose a total of more than.the 75 years allowable under the intent-to-kill finding. 4 HEARINGS ARE LAID.

Sticks To Story Nevertheless, MeCarthy stuck to his story of the alleged “black- mail” attempt. McCarthy charged the Demo- crats with responsibility for the hearings during a heated exchange with Sen. McClellan (D-Ark), in which McCarthy accused McCiel- lan and Symington of insincerity in their “‘protestations of piety” at’ the hearings. The Wisconsin senator said it had been clearly shown that the hearings of the row were “‘the result of urging by Sen, Symington and what urging there was on the part of Clark Clifford; the legal counsel and top adviser of the Democrat party.” And McCarthy euggested- Mc- Clellan take Symington out ‘‘to: the woodshed and say: ‘Now, Stu, let’s you and I go on the stand.” | McCarthy said that would be the only way to “get all the facts-on the table.” Public “Disgusted” ‘ McClellan said he felt some of the proceedings have “disgusted the public.” 7: The American people: have a right to expect the Senate to con- duct its proceedings “‘with dignity and solemnity,” McClellan said. McClellan com- Plained of “attempts to ridicule and to smear.” McClellan said that unless Clif- ford, G. David Schine and Maj. Gen. Kirke B. Lawton are called as witnesses, all the facts can never be developed. Winding up his speech, McClellan said: “I am a Democrat but I place the security Welfare of the country above any’ Datty.” The Democrats. once tried to have Clifford called as a witness, but were voted down 43 by the Symington accused McCarthy of bringing up all manner @f diver- sions to sidetrack the investigation.

McCarthy said “no one is as unhappy as my Democratic friends when it appears there is some gation.” z As the wrangling ‘grew in bitter- ness, Army Counsel Welch spoke up: “Could I remind the commitiee that Mr. St. Clair and I cane bere this morning hoping that we might ask an occasional question . , .

It said “there will be little or rs Primary state funds pera for matching primary federal funds during the remainder of this year.” About a week after it was writ- ten a newspaper reporter found it and. published it. Collins used it to support his contention that the Johns road board couldn’t carry out his highway building commit- ments with funds available this year and to criticize the board for failing to match federal road mon- ey. After the election Wells, at a conference in Johns’ office, hand- ed out a statement that he was retracting any language giving a “false impression” that the road deprtment “cannot carry out its budget for the year 1954.” He said then his statement in the letter to McKethan was “‘pred- icated upon a hypothetical ac- counting practice rather than upon the actual situation which must, of necessity, take into consideration the continuing aspects of the State Road Department operations.” BOBO GOES TO RENO (Continued from Page One) Sears Jr. SRD FIRES AUDIT | The marriage was the first for Rockefeller, 42, a grandson of John D.- Rockefeller who built a for- tune in oil. .

Bidault met this morning‘ with representatives of the three Asso- ciated States of Indochina—Viet Nam, Laos and Cambodia—and with Soviet Foreign Minister Vya- cehslav M. Molotov and Red China’s Chou En-lai. Bidault’s talk with Chou was the first publicly announced meeting between the two. France, like the United States, has not recognized the Peiping re- gime. Usually reliable sources said yesterday they believed Chou’s new Proposals for a cease-fire in Laos and Cambodia were a step for- ward, but indicated clarification was needed. > 3 Informed quarters said today the United States, after studying the Chou plan, had concluded it con- tained no new provisions, as far as major issues were concerned.
