Noel Field Says
He Always Will
Be An American
BUDAPEST, Hungary Ml Noel
field said Tuesday he is and al
ways will be an American, but
"1 am not sorry for my decision
yo stay and work in this country
nvhere I suffered so much."
Field is the one-time State De
partment official who with his
wife asked for political asylum
in Communist Hungary in 1954
after five years in a Hungarian
prison without trial. His name
figured in tho treason trial here of
former Hungarian Foreign Secre
tary Laszlo Rajk, who was exe
cuted for plotting with Yugoslav
ia's Marshal Tito.
(In the United States, admitted
former Communists Whittaker
Chambers and H e d e Massing
testified that Field once was a
member of a Communist apparat
us in Washington).
Stabad Nep, the official Com
munist Party organ, pubished a
letter from Field expressing his
"elation" over recent changes in
the Communist world. He called
this a "turn toward humanitarian
ism of which I am living witness."
Field called himself "an Amer
ican citizen living in Hungary out
of my free will."
He said nis decision to remain
in Hungary "aroused surprise be
cause it manifested that I remain
sympathetic to socialism although
I had been one of many victims
of false accusations and illegal
persecution.
"i am also grateful to enjoy the
advantages of witnessing and ex
periencing in practice the build
ing of socialism in Hungary. I
was dreaming ot mat in prison
and the dream now has been
realized."
Admitted Brink's Robber
Tells Of Carting Away
Bags Of Money From Office

Another Rate
Raise Approval
BOSTON m Joseph J.
"Specs" O'Keefe, admitted
Brink's robber, testified in a
hushed courtroom Tuesday that
he and a gang of masked accom-
filices carted off bags of money
rora the transfer company's of
fice six years ago and dumped
$1,143,000 on a hideout table short
ly afterward.
His three-day recital of the pros
ecution's version of the nation's
biggest robbery reached a climax
as he told of the robber band's
entrance into the Brink's count
ing room and the well-planned,
rapid escape with the loot.
He named as his actual part
ners in the raid:
St a n 1 e y Guscioa, 36 now
dead); Adolph "Jazz" Maffie, 45;
Michael V. Geagan, 47; Thomas
F. Richardson, 49; J ame 3 I.
Faherty, 45, and Henry Baker,
50.
O'Keefe swore that Anthony
Pino, 48, and Joseph Banfield, 45,
also now dead, sat outside in a
getaway truck, and that Vincent
Costa, 42, acted as lookout.
O'Keefe said the remaining de
fendant, Joseph F. McGinnis, 52,
described by the state as. the
"brains" of the robbery, remained
at his liquor store.
O'Keefe told the jury the gang
drove from Brink's to Maffie's
house and "threw all the stuff on
the lawn" while the truck sped
off. 1
"Then we moved the stuff Into
the house to a large room,"

By FRANK W. VAILLE
WASHINGTON W) Oregon
and Washington projects totaling
more than 113,000 acres are listed
by the Bureau of Reclamation as
possible developments under the
small projects reclamation act.
Bureau spokesmen emphasize
that the list, which includes 27
projects in Oregon and 20 in Wash
ington, was prepared only to give
a rough approximation of over
all potential of the new program
set up by Congress this year.
Many of the listed projects
have never been studied and
might be found uneconomical and
dropped. At the same time, how
ever, other projects now consid
ered too large may be broken
down by local sponsors to meet
cost restrictions.
Listed projects for the two
states would bring full water sup
ply to 33,955 acres and supple
mental water to 33,415 acres in
Oregon.
Washington projects would' pro
vide water for 43,420 new acres
and a supplemental supply for
z,930 acres.
- Briefly, the program authorizes
O'Keefe continued.
The witness said: "We started
to arrange the money in the bags
and put on the tabid as much as
we could." He estimated the
amount on the table at $1,143,000.
But. he added, this did not in
clude $98,000 in new money, and
10 one thousand dollar bills which
it was planned ' to destroy. Not
counted, too, he said, were two
hampers filled with payroll enve
lopes. Before they left Maffie's house,
O'Keefe said, "we piled the mon
ey as neatly as we could in a
corner and covered it with i
blanket. We put the new money
in anotner corner."
On the day after the robbery-

me witness said all of the mon
ey was removed from Maffie's
home that night in a truck brought

The indictments in the case set
the theft figure at $1,219,000.
O'Keefe, having . previously
pleaded guilty, is not on trial.
He told a Superior Court jury
yesterday that the alleged rob
bers agreed there was to be no
display of wealth that no one was
to buy a house and no one was to
buy a Cadillac.
OKecfe said it was agreed that
any one of the gang who jeop
ardized the others should be
killed.

the bureau to loan local snonsors
as much as five million dollars
to build any approved project,
with a ceiling of 10 million dol
lars on total project cost.
The program departs in two
main points from procedures for
the major reclamation activity of
the bureau.
Local sponsors would develop
and plan the small projects, not
the federal government. Also, as
now written, it would not be
necessary to gain affirmative ac
tion by Congress on each project
as in the case of larger under
takings. The latter provision, however.
may be in for a change in the
next Congress. Although he signed
the bill, President Eisenhower
questioned the provision under
whicn congress would nave bo
days in which to veto approved
loan applications submitted to it
by the Bureau.
John L. Wolfgang, chief of the
bureau's project development
branch, said the bureau now is
working out procedures for nan
dling applications - and expects to

Several applications have been
received but the sponsors jumped
the gun by failing to have the
projects cleared first by the state
governor, as the law requires.

WASHINGTON Wl Eastern
and Western railroads started
work Wednesday on a petition
asking the Interstate Commerce
Commission (ICC) to approve i
further freight rate increase of
about 15 per cent.
Formal announcement of the
proposal followed an all-day meet
ing here Tuesday of chief rail
freight traffic executives from all
parts of the country.
The southern lines also were
represented at the' meeting. But
they decided not to join in the
request, at least for the present.
The Eastern and Western rail
roads announced that "these in
creases are necessary to meet re
cent increases in the cost of ma
terials and supplies, and to as
sure the carriers sufficient rev
enue to permit necessary im
provement in both rights of way
ana equipment.
Railroad freight rates were
hiked by an estimated 473 million
dollars a year last March when
the ICC approved a general 8 per
cent increase in such charges. A
number of Eastern railroad exec
utives said later that this was insufficient.
The new proposal calls for a
general advance of 15 per cent on
rates for shipping most commodi
ties, and somewhat less than that
on coal, coke, fresh fruits and
vegetables, frozen foods and con
centrates, canned goods, lumber
and sugar.

Upper Atmosphere
Of Arctic To Be
Explored In Study
WASHINGTON I Upper at
mosphere of the Arctic to a height
of 180 miles will be studied by
scientists next month in a joint
United Stales-Canadian effort.
The plan, part of both coun
tries' participation in the Inter
national Geophysical Year, was
'announced Saturday by Dr. Jo
seph Kaplan and Dr. F. T. Davies,
respective chairmen of the U. S.
and Canadian national committees
for the 1GY.
The rockets will be fired by a
military-civilian scientific team
from a site already prepared at
Ft. Churchill, Canada. They will
use Acrobce rockets with two
smaller stage rockets. Initial fir
ings are scheduled in October and
November. The announcement did
not say how many rockets would
be fired, or how long the tests
would continue.
Among other things, the study
is expected to provide the first
scientific measurements of the
density, temperature, pressure
and winds of the cold Arctic at
mosphere. For the first time, the Aurora
Borealis or northern lights will be
studied by instruments 'carried to
high altitudes in the rockets.
Most of the work, including the
rocket firing, will be done by U.S.
personnel, but scientists of both
countries will observe the rock
ets and process data gathered
from them.
In preparation for the tests, U.

Truman Claims
He's Entitled
To Big Reward
KANSAS CITY W Former
President Harry S. Truman Sat
urday asked chairman Leonard
W. Hall of the Republican Na
tional Committee to give the Ko
rean Red Cross $1,000 offered by
Hall in a continuing disputo over
whether Vice President Richard
Nixon ever called Truman a trait
or.
Truman made public the follow
ing letter addressed to Hall:
"Some time ago you made a
statement to th,. press that you
would contribute one thousand
dollars to any charity I might
name if it could be proved that
the vice president had called this
this former President a traitor.
"Because it has been proved
rather conclusively, I suggest that
this contribution be made to the
Red Cross of Korea, a country in
which the Republicans have pro
fessed such a deep interest dur
ing the past few years,
"Sincerely Yours,
"Harry S. Truman."
The former President, in mak
ing public the letter, did not elab
orate. The "trator" dispute stems
from the 1952 presidential cam
paign. Associated Press stories on Oct.
27, 1952, quoted Nixon as saying
in a speech at Texarkana that
Truman, Dean Acheson and Adlai
Stevenson 'are traitors to the high
principles in which many of the
nation's Democrats believe.' They
went on to quote Nixon: " 'Real

Suez crisis deprive western Eu
rope of its Middle East oil supply.
Texas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and
New Mexico could meet the emer
gency simply by letting their
wells run longer.
Transportation might become a
major problem but the supply
problem would be nothing more
than turning valves and throwing
pump switches.

Conservation officials from the
four states on Tuesday advised H.

Department's Oil and Gas Divi
sion, that oil to meet a possible
Western Europe emergency could
be made available immediately.
Texas could boost its production
by a million barrels daily, louisi-
ana ay some 3)5, ouu to 300,000,
Oklahoma by 125,000, and New
Mexico by 40,000 to 50,000 barrels.
Stewart estimated that an addi

should tanker traffic through the

Man's Trouble All Stemmed
From One-Eyed Monster
Giveaway Called
Manufactured
Issue By Seaton
DENVER W An Eisenhower
cabinet member declared Tues
day night that Republicans are
"starting to give our side of the
story" in answer to Democratic
charges of "giveaway."
Secretary of Interior Fred Seat
on told a news conference that
"no one set out to plunder the pub
lic lands it is purely a manu
factured issue."
Seaton conferred with Colorado
GOP leaders on camnaign strategy
Tuesday and met with public lands
representatives Wednesday before
flying to a dinner meeting at Mc-
Wok, NeD.
He told reporters Denver wai
the first stop on a cabinet cam-
Eaign to bring into focus the po
tical picture in various regions.
"We feel the people who ad
minister the program are the best
ones to tell about the record,"
Seaton said.
Discussing Democratic charges,
Seaton said:
"In the last 10 years of the Dem
ocratic administration they took
400,000 acres out of the nation'
wildlife reserves. There were rea
sonswar, lack of appropriations
and so on. But the land is still
gone." ,
He said the Eisenhower admin
istration in 3V4 years has "added
87,000 acres to the wildlife re
serves, and established seven new
preserves."
Seaton said the Democrats add
ed virtually no land to the national
park system while Republicans
have tacked on 408,000 acres in
the United States and established
a new national park in the Virgin
Islands.

ney Conroy aays he was married
happily for 20 years before tele
vision entered his home. But now,
says the 41-year-old ice cream
salesman, the one-eyed 'monster"
has sent his wife from his bed,
his mind into turmoil and his em
ployer's money to the winds.
Conroy told this tale of TV trou
bles in court here:
"I had been a happy married
man and in love with my wife for
20 years. Then four months ago
that monster called TV came into
my life and I have not bad a
minute's peace since.
"It has become a god in my
house as far as my wife and fam
ily are concerned. No one must
talk or even breathe when the
monster is switched on.
"The climax came last Friday
when the set broke down. My wife
and family were walking about
like lost people, and it seemed
as if they all ignored me because
I would not get it repaired quick
enough.
"My wife stormed off to bed at
7:30 p.m. and nobody would talk
to me. When I went into our bed
room, my wife deliberately got
out of bed, taking her pillows.
"That night I lay awake. All
the time my mind was in a tur
moil. "The next day she never spoke
all day and at night she went to
sleep with the children. Came the
next day and still she would not
speak and that evening she and
the family left me alone in the
house.

204 pounds ($571.20) and then
threw the box and money away.
"What possessed me I will
never know," Conroy added. "I
did not do it for personal gain.
it an still seems like a dream."
The judge released Conrov on
bail and sent him to a higher
court on theft charges.
No one said whether the TV let
is fixed yet.
