It's a night to be remembered in far-off Tasmania as the
touring Queen Elizabeth II and Duke of Edinburgh attend a
civic bajl in their honor at the Hobart city hail. The ladies of
the Australia island, dressed in their finest for the social event
of a lifetime, curtsey to the smiling queen as she leaves the
. affair with the Duke of Edinburgh behind her. (AP Wirephoto)
Four Puerto R icons
Indicted by Grand Jury
WASHINGTON UV-Four Puerto
Ricans accused of wounding five
congressmen in a wild outburst of
pistol fire in the House chamber
were under indictments today that
carry a possible total sentence of
75 years imprisonment.
hep. Alvin M. Bentloy (R-Mich),
the most gravely injured of the
legislators, was still in serious con
dition, but no longer on the criti
cal list. The others were improv
ing. Federal prosecutors and a grand
Jury took little more than the min
imum time yesterday to go over
the evidence on Monday's shooting.
U.S. Atty. Leo A. Rover used six
witnesses, including one member
of Congress, Hep. Paul W. Shafcr
(R-Mich), to present the case in
one hour and 45 minutes.
Almost immediately afterward
the grand jury voted indictments
charging assault with intent to kill
CLUTCHING TOP
and assault with a dangerous
weapon against Mrs. Lolita Lebron,
34; Irving Flores Rodriguez, 28:
Andres F. Cordero, 29, and Ra
fael C. Miranda, 25.
All were held in $100,000 bail
each. Police said al! but Rodrieuez
naa conicssea. Koariguez was not
seized at the Capitol, but later at
a buj station. Rep. Shafer told
newsmen, before he testified at
the closed grand jury session, that
ne coma identify Rodriguez as one
of the quartet involved in the shooting.
jjie snooting had repercussions
last night in Havana and Chicago.
In Havana, Cuban military in
telligence officers arrested for
questioning Juan Juarbes, foreign
affairs secretary of the Puerto
Rican Nationalist parly. They also
seized another Nationalist, Carlos
Padilla Perez.
Chicago police picked up five
Puerto Ricans in a roundup of
local Nationalist leaders. Authori
ties there declined to say what
furiher action they plan to take.

The mayor points out that f'therc

it is recognized that the many
problems confronting us can be

Text of President's Statement on McCarthy
WASHINGTON I - The text of
President Eisenhower's statement
Wednesday on the Stevens-McCarthy
episode:
I want first to make a few com
ments about the Peress case.
1. The Department of the Army
made serious errors in handling
the Peress case and the secretary
of the Army so stated publicly, al
most a month ago.
2. The Army is correcting Its
procedures to avoid such mistakes
in the future. I am completely con
fident that Secretary Stevens will
be successful in this effort.
-3. Neither in this case, nor in
any other, has any person in the
executive branch been authorized
to suggest that any subordinate,
for any reason whatsoever, violate
his convictions or principles or
submit to any kind of personal
humiliation when testifying before
congressional committees or else
where. In a more general sense I have
certain observations to make. They
are:
1. We must be unceasingly vigi
lant in every phase of govern
mental activity to make certain
that there is no subversive pene
tration. I
2. In opposing communism, we
are dclcaung ourselves u euncr
by design or through carelessness,
we use methods that do not con
form to the American sense of
justice and fair play.
3. The conscience of America
will clearly discern when we are
exercising proper vigilance with'
out being unfair. That conscience
reflected in the body of the
United States Congress. We can be
certain that its members will re
spnnd to America's convictions
and beliefs in this regard.
Here I must repeat something
that I have often stated before,
The ultimate responsibility for he
conduct of all parts of the execu-
tive branch of the government
rests with the President of the
United States. That responsibility
cannot be delegated to another
branch of government. It is, of
course, likewise the responsibility
of the President and his associates
account for their stewardship of
public affairs. All of us recognize
the public servants who are ap
pearing before him. In the tradi
tion of such mutual respect I grew
up in the governmental service. It
is that tradition that I intend that
the executive branch will observe
and apply as long as I hold my
present office.
I have only a few additional
comments. They are made in the
belief that they conform to the
conscience of the American people
and to our understanding of jus
tice, right and governmental re
sponsibility. .
First, all of us know that our
military services and their leaders

tel of six units with 'ivinz quar
ters, situated on Highway 99 at
the junction with the Albany air
port road, has been sold through
a local rer-1 estate agency, by
Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Baxter, to
Mr. and Mis. John Mazachek, of
acio. 'ine motet property was
valued at $47,900.
Involved in the deal was the
transfer of the Mazachek down
town garage property, occupied
by the Bob McCallum garage, a

acio business district.
The Mazacheks plan to devel
op the motel property.
the right of the people to know
how we are meeting this responsi
bility and the congressional right
to inquire and . investigate into
every phase of our public opera
tions.
Manifestly, in a government
such as ours, successful service to
160 million people demands a true
spirit of cooperation among the
several branches of government,
especially between the executive
and the legislative branches. Real
cooperation is possible only in an
atmosphere of mutual respect.
I spent many years in the Army,
during the course of which I some
times appeared before committees
of the Congress. In all that time I
never saw any individual of the
Army fail to render due and com
plete respect to every member of
Congress with whom duty brought
him in contact.- In all that time, I
never saw any member of Con
gress guilty of disrespect toward

500 Guests Flee
From Hotel Fire
BOSTON Wl Approximately 500
Euests fled from the Parker House,
three of them down ladders, when
fire swept the fifth floor of the
14-story hotel in the heart of down
town Boston early today.
Joseph C. Fitzeerald. 47. of Cor
al Gables, Fla., was reported to
be the only casualty.
He was taken toCity Hospital
suffering minor burns and smoke
inhalation after firefighters assist
ed him down a ladder from the
fifth floor. His condition was re
ported as "not serious."
Bennett A. Hartley, 39. Balti
more, Md., and Gordon Shllinglaw,
27, Yonkers, N. Y.. were also
helped down ladders.
Hartley, an engineering consult
ant with Bethlehem Steel, said he
climbed onto a ledge outside his
window.
Police In a passing cruiser, ap
parently unaware there was a fire
in the hotel, took him into tem
porary custody after firefighters
brought him down and questioned
him in the mistaken belief he had
been trying to commit suicide, he
said.
Deputy Fire Chief Edward
Gaughan estimated damage at
$4,500. He said the fire started
among decorative jewelry stacked
in boxes on the fifth floor corridor
in preparation for asales show.
The U. S. marriage rale in
1953 was about 9.7 per 1,000 of
population compared with about
9.8 per 1,000 of population in
1952. i
have always been completely loyal
and dedicated public servants,
singularly free of suspicion of dis
loyalty. Their courage and their
devotion have been proved in
peace as well as on the battle
fields of war. America is proud of
them. I am certain that no one in
any governmental position wants
to have his own utterances inter
preted as questioning the lasting
debt that all of us as Americans
owe to the officers and enlisted
men and women of the armed
services. In this tribute to the
services, I mean to include Gen.
Zwicker, who was decorated for
gallantry in the field. '
Second, except where the inter
ests of the nation demand other
wise every governmental employee
in the executive branch, whether
civilian or in the armed forces, is
expected to respond cheerfully and
completely to the requests of the
Congress and its several commit
tees. In doing so it is, of course,
assumed that they will be ac
corded the same respect and cour
tesy that I require that they show
to the members of he legislative
body. Officials in the executive
branch of the government will
have my unqualified suppor in in
sisting that employees in the exec
utive branch who appear before
any type of- executive or congres
sional investigative body be treat
ed lairly.
Third. Obviously, it Is the re
sponsibility of the Congress to see
to it mat its procedures are proper
and fair. I, of course, expect the
Republican membership of the
Congress to assume the primary
responsibility in this respect, since
they are of the majority party,
and, therefore, control the commit
tees. I am glad to state that Sen.
Knowland has reported to me that
effective steps are being taken by
the Republican leadership to set
up codes of fair procedures.
Fourth. There are problems fac
ing this nation today of vital im
portance. They are both foreign
and domestic in character. Thev
affect the individual and collective
future of all of us. The views of
myself and my associates on these
matters have been outlined in the
proposals on legislation we have
submitted to the Congress. Thev
deserve the undivided and inces
sant attention of the Congress, of
the executive branch, of the public
information media of our nation.
of our schools, and even of our
churches. I regard it as unfortu
nate when we arc diverted from
these grave problems ot wnicn
one is vigilance against any kind
of internal subversion through
disregard of the standards of fair
play recognized by the American
people. These incidents are all the
more useless and unfortunate in
view of the basic dedication of
every loyal American to the pres.'
ervation and advancement of
America's safety, prosperity and
well-being.
