Refusal To MacArthur Recalls HST's Choice Br LYLE C. WILSON Washington (U.PJ The Army department s refusal to d 1 s qualify Gen. Douglas MacArthur as Republican keynote speaker recalls thBt Sen. Robert A. Taft is President Truman's candidate for the GOP presidential nomin ation. Mr. Truman has said so, and publicly. If MacArthur's key noter helps to nominate Taft and to ston Gen; Dwight D. Eisen hower, as some of Ike's friends fear, the Army would appear to have done its part. Frea To Speak Its ruling was that since Mac Arthur has no military assign ment at the moment, he was free to make political speeches de spite the fact that he is techni cally on active service as a five star general. The facts are. however, that Eisenhower's friends and others put the Army on an impossible spot with suggestions that Mac Arthur was not qualified to make a political speech before a convention or anywhere else. MacArthur already has been making political speeches all over the nation. To disqualify him for a convention appearance would have required someone to make some mighty line distinC' tions between convention poli tics and other politics. In Same Position More embarrassing, however, to the Pentagon brass was the fact that Eisenhower was in exactly the same position as MacArthur when he waded Into politics up to his hips as presi dent of Columbia university. University President Eisenhower was neither retired nor resigned from the Army, but on active service, when he undertook his speaking campaign against the Truman administration. If Eisenhower's old friends in the Pentagon slapped down Mac Arthur In 1952 for doing what Eisenhower did a couple of years earlier, there would have been some explaining to do. And Mac Arthur was ready to put some touch questions to the Penta gons department of explanation.

June IS. 1S52 Mrs. Kader Weeps As Prosecution Gives Testimony Portland 'UP The first de gree murder trial of Mrs. Jada Z. Kader continued Wednesday after the 22-year-old mother, ac cused of slaying her daughter Sherrie Ellen, broke down and cried during Tuesday's testi mony. It was the first display of emo tion Mrs. Kader has made since the trial opened last week. Lie Chsrgtd The 90-pound Mrs. Kader screamed out, "Oh. he's lying!' at one point in opening state ment by J. Raymond Carskadon. chief criminal deputy district attorney. Nels Peterson and Frank Poz zi, her attorneys, pulled her back into her chair and she started sobbing. A few moments later she raised her tear-streaked face to listen to the rest of Cars kadon's opening statement. The buildup to the emotional display started early. Before court convened. Circuit Judge Frank J. Lonergan interviewed four-year-old Vickie Kader in his chambers before her mother, opposing counsel. Judge Virgil Lanftry and a handful of other persons. Embraced Child Mrs Kader hung onto every word her daughter said and when it was over ran to the child and embraced her. The purpose of the hearing was to determine Vickie's com petency as a witness. Judge Lon ergan said he would make his decision on the youngster's com petency later. Carskadon said In his opening statement that the state would prove that Mrs. Kader caused Sherrie Eljen's death by asphyx iating her and then throwing the child's body down a gas works sump hole. Defense Attorney Peterson told the Jury that evidence would show that Sherrie Ellen's death was not caused by her mother.
