Into the logjam of downtown

Extra police were again as

into city streets. Police estimated
100,000 additional cars surged in

2,600 workers.
Both union and management
predicted that the ticup would

Some motorists began organiz
ing car pools and others hitch
hiked when Los Angeles Transit
Lino buses and streetcars stop
ped running Monday morning.
They normally carry 900,000 rid

Union leaders had gone to an

the nude scene, even after the
director, Carlo Lodovico Braga-
glia, declared that "there was no
such scene in the screen play,
nor was one ever filmed."
PRESS IN UPROAR
She originally described the
nude scene in an interview with
Associated Press reporter James
Bacon in Hollywood. She said the
scene was taken for "The Courte
san of Babylon," in which she
stars.
Her remarks brought an out
cry of "Absolutely false" from
Bragaglla and made headlines in
the Italian press. After Bragaglia
denied that there was such a
scene, Miss Fleming countered:
"Mr. Bragaglia is a fine di
rector, one whose judgment I re
spect very much. He filmed the
scene in good taste."
She said that the "cameras
were way back on the shore" and
it was "all very proper."
There was a banquet scene of
an orgy in the film which Miss
Fleming said was played just
that way as an orgy.
I WAS SHOCKED'
"The camera moved in on each
couple and it was one scene after
another of obscene lovemaking.
All the girls were bare from the
waist up," she said "I was
shocked and told the producers
I wouldn't have a part of such
goings on. , . .
"Finally they told me that the
footage would be burned. That
cooled me."
The reply in Rome was
"phooey."

800,000 Refugees
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. W
South Viet Nam has estimated
in a report to the U.N. Economic
and Social Council that it has re
ceived 800,000 refugees from
Communist-ruled North Indochina.
WASHINGTON Wl Senators
yrd (D-Va) and Symington (D-
Mo) said Tuesday a $31,882,000,000
defense money bill will help keep
America ahead of Russia in long
range aerial striking power.
The Senate passed the bill 80-0
Monday and sent it back to the
House, where a somewhat differ
ent version was approved some
time ago.
40-39 VOTE
One of the major differences
was a Senate amendment de
signed to block a proposed 22,-000-man
reduction in the Marine
Corps. This amendment was
adopted 40-39. It was President
Eisenhower's first reversal on a
major military recommendation
since he entered the White House.
The bill would provide funds to
arm and support a military force
scheduled to be trimmed from
2,961,300 men as of June 30 to
2,881,000 a year later.
It carries 356 million dollars
more than the House voted to
step up production of long-range
bombers.
Left intact were House-approved
provisions to reduce the Army by
87,000 men to a new level of
1,027,000, to cut the Navy by
8,000 men to 664,000 and to in-
crcas the Air Force from 970,000
to J75,30 men. 1
The Marine Corps would he
kept at 215,000 men instead of
being- reduced to 193,000 as
planned by the administration and
approved by the House. For-this
purpose, the Senate adopted an
amendment by Symington to give
the Marines another 46 million
dollars.
AERIAL BUILDINGS
Symington and other advocates
of a strengthened Air Force
emerged with a substantial vic
tory, although it did not come
about in the form of actual legis
lation. Symington said an Air Force
letter put into the record by Sen.
Chavez (D-NM) and recommend
ing "quantity production" of F101
and F104 supersonic jet fighters
fulfilled his demand for a speed
up in that field. Chavez told his
colleagues more than three bil
lion dollars already was avail
able for this purpose.
