said farewell to Sen. Joseph R
McCarthy today with eulogies
in church and Senate Chamber

In high vaulted St. Matthew's
Cathedral, where McCarthy was
married four years ago, his
grieving widow heard him
praised as a courageous "watch
man of the citadel."
Then in the Senate Chamber

31-year-old Jean, held back her
tears until the very end of the
cathedral service. When Arch
bishop O'Boyle took her hand
and spoke a few gentle words,
she bowed her head and wept
for a moment.
In the chamber where he had
served more than 10 years, Mc
Carthy was praised by the Sen
ate chaplain, the Rev. Dr. Fred
erick Brown Harris, as an in
trepid fighter against "insidious
enemies of the republic, malig
nant powers of darkness."

Border War for
ing by Board '
Managua U.PJ Nicaragua
and Honduras have agreed to
call off their border war pending
an international ruling on the
century-old dispute that touched
it off, it was announced today.
President Luis Somoza said

Israel took the wraps off its
French military aid with a pa
rade at Tel Aviv which showed
that more than 80 per cent of
the Israeli heavy equipment was
from France.
Israelis Turn Out
Thirty-six French-built mys
tery jets flashed overhead
more than three times the num
ber Israel ever had acknowl
edged receiving from France.
More than 500,000 Israelis
turned out for.the parade, but
conspicuous by their absence
were the diplomatic representa
tives of Russia, Bulgaria, Ro
mania and Czechoslovakia. Rus
sia and Czechoslovakia had sun-
plied Egypt with much of the
equipment seen today.
The naval show at Eilat was
less impressive Israel held
open house for the two frigates
and the several motor torpedo
boats with which it hopes to
keep the Gulf of Aqaba open
should neighboring Arab states
try to stop Its ships.
But it brought this warning
from Suleiman Pasha Toukan,
Jordan's defense minister and
military governor:
,"We are ready for them. We
have a large number -of soldiers
there, "and the Saudi Arabian
army is nearby. If they come we
are ready for them."
Egypt meanwhile hailed the
results of Syria's parliamentary
by-elections as a major victory
for the Syrian government and
proof that Syria will remain
"on Egypt's side" despite West

Egypt's relations with Jordan

these two nations have been

Entire Teamster
Leadership Charged
At Union Hearing
Failure of Leaders
To Take Action Cited
Washington U.R)- The AFL
CIO today charged teamsters
President Dave Beck and Vice
President Frank Brewster with
using union funds for "person
al purposes" and using their
union positions for "personal
profit or advantage."
Teamsters Vice President Syd
ney Brennan of Minneapolis,
who has been convicted of ac
cepting money from an employ
er, was charged with "corrupt
activities" by the AFL-CIO.
Entire Leadership Charged
And the entire Teamsters Un
ion leadership was charged with
failing to take action against
the three.
The AFL-CIO sepecifically
questioned the teamsters leader
ship's "apparent failure" to de
termine for itself whether Beck
is . in fact guilty of "personal
corruption in the handling of
union funds and in the conduct
of union affairs and invoked
the Fifth Amendment ... to con
ceal the fact."
Beck was accused by the Sen
ate Rackets . committee of using
more than $320,000 in union
funds for personal matters, but
he resorted to the Fifth Am
endment 117 times in refusing
to answer the committee's ques
tions about his financial deal
ings with the union.
The bill . of particulars was
contained in a 22-page state
ment presented before the AFL
CIO Ethical Practices commit
tee as it started its hearing on
the question whether the Big
Teamsters Union is- dominated
or substantially influenced by
"corrupt influence."
The AFL-CIO charges were
spelled out after Beck himself
accused the parent union in an
opening statement of conduct
ing a "medieval inquisition and
witch hunt," at the hearing.
Beck, backed up in his state
ment by other members of the
Teamsters Executive Board, de
nounced the general charge of
corruption as "malicious and un
founded slander."
Beck demanded that the com
mittee provide teamsters lead
ers a bill of "particulars" as tj
the charges against the union.
He said the board members had
come to the hearing "solely" to
find out whether they would
get a detailed breakdown of the
allegations.
It was after he spoke that the
committee came up with a 22-
page statement detailing the
charges.
Misuse of Funds
The committee's statement of
detailed charges against the
Teamsters alleged that Beck
used union funds for "personal
purposes" when he was -chairman
of the union's Western Con
ference. '
A similar accusation was made
against Brewster. And both were
charged with using their "offic
ial union positions" for "person
al profit and advantage."
The committee then cited the
corrupt influences"' of Bren
nan. The commitee also question
ed "the apparent failure" of the
Teamsters Union to investigate
the activities of the three offic
ers. No mention was made of
Teamsters Vice President James
R. Hoffa of Detroit, who was
present at the closed hearing.
He has been indicted on charges
of trying to bribe his way into
the files of the Senate Rackets
committee which also has been
investigating corruption in the
Teamsters Union.

assailed by Republicans for my
defense of the Eisenhower budg

publicans to get into the act and

the courage and prestige to do
it."
