Syria Accuses
To Overthrow
DAMASCUS, Syria Syria ac
cused tne United States today of
plotting to overthrow President
Shukri Kuwatly's government.
The United States Embassy
here quickly labelled the charge
a ' complete fabrication.
The embassy issued this state
ment '
"The U.S. Embassy has noted
the broadcast of the Syrian Broad
casting System and press reports
describing an alleged plot against
the Syrian government. The state
ment is onviousiy a compicie ia
brication." An official government state
ment charged the United States
had signified willingness to p a y
Svria between 300 and 400 million
dollars in aid if Damascus
changed governments and made
peace with Israel.
Political quarters here said Syr
ia would lodge a strong protest
with the United States. ,
The U.S. Embassy in Damascus
said it had received no word from
the Syrian government of such
charges.
The Damascus statement said
One Man Killed,
Two Wounded At
Rock 'N' Roll Dance
ST. LOUIS, Wl Four wild
shots were fired during a noisy
rock V roll show at Kiel Audi
torium Monday night. One man
was killed and two. were wounded
before an audience of 5,500.
An altercation between four men
and a woman preceded the shoot
inc. but the dead man and the
injured were described by police
as innocent bystanders. All of the
persons involved are negroes.
There was mild confusion as
lights were turned on and the
show stopped. The gunman and a
woman companion fled and po
lice had made no arrests hours
later.
Most of the crowd apparently
thought the shooting, in a packed
balcony area of the big auditor
ium, was a stunt rigged as part
of the show.
Killed was Clay Greer Phelps,
42. a maintenance man at a Cath
olic church.
Wounded were Mrs. Rachel Hen
derson, 26, struck in the left fool
by one of the shots, and Ollie
Wickerson, 43, operator of a radio
and TV repair shop who was shot
in the right leg. Police said they
had no part in the dispute that
preceded the 'hooting.
Mrs. Elbert Bowman, 19, suf
fered a sprained back when she
was knocked down in the excite
ment that followed.
The show was resumed after
the dead nun and "the injured
were removed.

major participants in the alleged
conspiracy were ex-dictator Col.
Adib Shishekly, and the Syrian mil

Husseini. Shishekly was sentenced
in absentia last February to life
imprisonment on a charge of lead
ing a subversive group.
In Rome, Colonel Husseini de
nied any knowledge of the pur
ported plot and called the whole
charge a frameup. He said he did
not know any American by the

ernment. The husky colonel was at his

still officially his country's mili

Dr. Zeki Djebi, Syrian ambas

Russia Affirms
Pledge To Stand
By Syria's Side
DAMASCUS Iff! Soviet Am
bassador Sergei Nemtchina af
firmed Tuesday Russian "pre
paredness to stand by Syria's side
in the face of all foreign imper
ialistic intrigues."
Damascus Radio said the Soviet
envoy made the statement when
he met with Premier Sabri As
sali to inquire about Syrian
charges of a United States con
spiracy against Syria's present
pro-Soviet regime. The two also
discussed "matters of interest to
both Syria and the Soviet Union."
MOSCOW, lPi The official So
viet communist newspaper Pravda
Tuesday linked Soviet - Syrian
friendship with a charge that "Im
perialists are dropping new nomos
on Arabic peoples."
The newspaper's editorial said
the li.S S.lt. aids Syria without
any side interest in "the smell
of oil," but that "aggressive im
perialist forces are interfering in
the international affairs of coun
tries of the middle east and at
tempting to cover up their inter
ference with shouts that commu

bombs apparently meant the Brit

Luoma stated that Battle may

Clamp Down On
Defiant Strikers
LODZ, Poland i.f) Communist
authorities placed armed guards
at every street corner of this tense
city Tuesday and braced for a
showdown with 10,000 defiant
transport strikers. Their strike for
higher pay paralyzed the c i t y,
once hailed as a Communist model
for all Poland.
Police tear gas bombs sent five
persons to hospitals in one out
break Monday. Other strikers bar
ricaded themselves in car Darns
to prevent strike breaking. Street
cars are the only public trans
portation in Lodz, a city of 700,
000 about 75 miles southwest of
Warsaw. Dubbed "Red City" by
the Communists, it is Poland's
second largest municipality.
The strikers ignored govern
ment leaflets branding the strike
illegal and calling on the strikers
to return to their jobs. The strik
ers object to a government move
to link pay boosts with vodka con
sumption. Efforts To Settle
Differences Over
Civil Rights Fails
WASHINGTON 11 - Efforts to
compromise Senate and1 House dif
ferences oyer civil rights legisla
tion were blocked at least for the
present Tuesday.
Rep. Keating (R-NY( moved to
break a House stalemate. He
sought unanimous consent to send
the civil rights bill to conference
with the Senate and try to work
out a compromise.
Immediately a dozen or more
members jumped to their feet to
object. Speaker Rayburn of Texas
recognized Rep. Walter (D-Pa) to
make the single objection needed
to kill the move to rewrite the
bill in a compromise session.
The issue is whether to accept
something on the order of the bill
which the Senate passed and
to which President Eisenhower
has objected or shunt the dis
pute to a conference in the hope
of arriving at a compromise more
acceptable to all sides.
After Heating's move was
blocked, Rep. Celler (D-NY)
asked unanimous consent of the
House to send the bill directly
back to the Senate with a com
promise amendment narrowing a
controversial jury trial provision
to voting right cases only.
Keating objected to that proce
dure. Republican leaders had said
earlier that Eisenhower would not
be a party to any deal to tie a
softened civil rights bill to bigger
foreign aid funds.
The House Republican leader,
Rep. Martin of Massachusetts,
called it a wild rumor.
Sen. Knowland of California,
Republican leader, put his com
ment in the form of a sharp de
nial that there is any chance
President Eisenhower will back
down on civil rights to get more
foreign aid money.

Union Leader
Doria Accused
In Building Sale
WASHINGTON lT Senate in
vestigators developed Tuesday
that Anthony Doria received $25,
000 which he said was for in
vestment purposes from a real
estate man who made $45,000 on
purchase and quick resale of a
Milwaukee union building in 1954.
Doria, former secretary-treasurer
of the Allied Industrial Work
ers, insisted that checks of $5,000,
$9,000 and $11,000 sent him by
Spiros Kallos of Milwaukee had
nothing to do with the building
sale. He said the money was an
investment by Kallos in an Ari
zona mining venture.
The story of the building deal
capped a long go-round with the
Senate Rackets Investigating
Committee during which Doria
steadfastly insisted he had never
turned any union money to per
sonal use.
Doria. a hulking big man, sweat
ing in the witness chair, acknowl
edged he used to keep thousands
of dollars of union cash in an iron
strong box hidden under papers
in union headquarters in Milwau
kee. He said too that he never gave
rank and file members an account
ing of his spending of union funds.
And, he said, records to show how
the money was spent may have
disappeared.
But never, uona insisted, were
union funds spent "for my person
al use."
