Farley Tells Inside Story Of FDR Split Mead Called To Testify by May Defense "WASHINGTON. June 12 -VP) The defense today obtained a court order requiring former Sen ator James M. Mead (D-N.Y.) to testify next Tuesday at the May-Garsson war fraud trial on whether he "withheld evidence." Federal Court Justice Henry A. Schweinhaut ruled ' that Mead jcould be asked only about a de fense contention that the former chairman of the senate-war inves tigating committee held back documents which would help dear the three trial defendants. :'' Andrew J. May, wartime chair man of the house military com mittee, and Munitions Makers Henry and Murray Garsson are charged at the trial with bribe conspiracy, involving $55,000 May allegedly took from the Garssons favors to their $7,000,000 muni tions combine. . Mead's committee investigated the wartime relations between May and the Garssons. Charles J. Margiotti, chief de fense counsel, argued in asking the court's permission to have Mead testify, that his senate com mittee took private papers from May and the Garssons which ihey now need, in their defense. ST. LOUIS. June 12-(iip-Heavy rains built up a new flood threat in northwest Missouri and three adjacent states today, but the sit uation eased somewhat on the Missouri and Mississippi rivers above here where . more than 1.000.000 acres had been inundat ed with damage estimated by the war department at $28,000,000.

S. circuit court ofappeals to day handed down a decision which government spokesmen said might mean payment 01 n if 1 - TT?1 "1 5o.5S.d?2r5!L!5 'MLiclwest r lood service life insurance. I rT " . decision, the court XllTeai WOWS neia uuu a veterans administra tion regulation regarding pay ments to beneficiaries over 30 was in error and that it "dis torted" congressional language and was an "usurpation of "legis lative power." William M. Ly tie, special as sistant U. S. district attorney, said that under the decision the government might .pay the face value of some policies as much as five times or, more. He said he would recommend an immed iate appeal to the supreme court. The court held that the V. A. erred in passing regulations which because based on life expect ancy tables in some cases would make the usual 120 monthly payments total, less than the face value of the policy. The V. A. regulation, the ruling said, would figure the payments, for beneficiaries 30. years old or over, as equalized monthly pay ments for 120 months based on the life expectancy of the bene ficiary according to standard in surance mortality tables. z. The court ruled that payments to such beneficiaries should be made on a basis of the full face value of the policy, plus 3 per cent interest, in 120 equal month ly installments. ' If the beneficiary- lived past this 120 month period, the deci sion said, he should continue to receive the monthly installments for life. School Fund AllocationsDuc Within Week Directors of a p p r o x imalely 1.600 first class school districts. within a week, will receive notice of allocations to be made from the $18,000,000 basic school sup port rund for tne school year 1M7-4S. Rex Putnam, slate sup erintendent of public Instruction. announced here Thursday. The basic school fund was ap proved by Oregon voters at the last general election and machln cry for Its administration was set up at the last legislative session. DlstrlbaUea ta MepUsaber First distribution will be made September IS; Putnam said, when one-half of each school districts allocation will be mailed out by the secretary of state. Second payment will be made next March. The allocations will be made on the basis of $13,250,000, with $350,000 earmarked for the care of handicapped children. Ad mlrustratlve costs of $100,000 were allowed by the 1947 legiala ture but the amount was reduced to $S4.000 by the stste board of education. Elections will be held through out the rural areas of the state next Monday to choose county school director who after Janu ary 1. 1948, will review the bud gets of all rural school within the county. Officials predicted that these rural school districts would face a difficult situation because they also must formulate policies. Mar Have EtertUas Under the rural school act con solidated budgets will be prepar ed for all schools under Jurisdic tion of the directors and if the budget is in excess of the 6 per cent limitation the budget must be approved by the voters. Should the voters reject the budget the directors then will ask each dist rict to place its own budget be fore its school patrons for consideration. If sufficient schools consolidate to make up 1.000 or more pupil attendance, the district automati cally becomes a first class dist rict and is removed from the rural school category, Putnam averred.
