Honor Patrolman
Held as Thief
New York (UPI) An
honor patrolman admitted
Thursday night that he sys
tematically looted two police
property safes of almost $27,
000, thus ending one of the
most embarrassing mysteries
in New York Police Depart
ment annals.
Patrolman Jean H. Jack
son, 35, a Negro, admitted the
thefts shortly before mid
night after 10 hours of in
tensive questioning by some
of the department's top brass.
He was charged with grand
larceny.
Jackson, who won a com
mendation in 1955 for dis
arming and arresting four
robbers, told his questioners
he spent almost $1,000 of the
pilfered funds on redecorat
ing his Harlem apartment,
where he lived alone. Some
of the money went for sev
eral $150 suits and several
pair of $28 shoes, he was
quoted.
Authorities hinted t h a
Jackson, a member of the
force since June, 1953, also
spent a considerable amount
on an unidentified girl friend
Married and the father of two
children, he has been estrang
ed from his wife the last 10
years, authorities said.
After confessing, Jackson
led investigators to a friend';
apartment and a mttal box
containing $13,443, represent
ing approximately half of the
stolen funds. Jackson insist
ed, however, that neither the
friend nor anyone else knew
what the box contained.

Cocktail Party Has
Converts in Europe;
Repays Obligations
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Correspondent
Washington Those who
have wondered just what as
pects of American culture are
being export
ed and copied
around the
world these
days found
some evidence
?in an AP dis
patchfrom Munich the
other day,
which began:
a. sobt Smith mat great
American folk custom, the
cocktail party, is gaining con
verts in Europe. In West Ger
many the missionary work
has been done largely by the
American diplomats and mil
itary men who landed here
after World War II. They had
social obligations and fre
quently discharged them by
inviting German officials and
others to massive cocktail
parties. The Germans came
filled with curiosity and left
filled with Manhattans and
Martinis. Some liked the idea
and tried it on friends."
The cocktail party is for
Washington diplomatic and
political society a strange and
wondrous device. It's full of
ironies about life here in
general.
In the public taprooms of
the nation's capital, it is for
bidden to take a drink while
standing erect. It's the law,
enacted by Congress, enforced
by the police, that all drinking
must be conducted while the
drinker is seated. The only
brass rail in town is in the
men's bar of the National
Press Club.
Lack of Chairs Dictate!
In the private cocktail par
ties, one is virtually compelled
to drink while standing erect.
It's alright to sit down, as far
as the law is concerned, but
custom and lack of chairs dic
tate otherwise. The hostess,
as a matter of fact, usually in
vites so many guests that they
can all be accommodated only
if they occupy the least
amount of space, which re
quires erect posture.
The party has become a de
vice for quick and easy, if ex
pensive, repayment of what
are known as social obliga
tions. One hears it said that
hostess in one cocktail party
can wipe clean tne siate ox
such obligations for a year or
more.
Although sometimes called
reception or some other eu
phemism, the party is under
stood to be a period when
booze will flow freely. It is
held frequently during the
week, starting at 5:30 or 6 p.
m., to provide a refreshing
sanctuary for the laboring dip
lomat and politician who is
between the office and dinner.
Sometimes the hors d'oeuvres
take on fullmeal proportions,
and instead of going on to
dinner, the guests stay and
stay and wash down cuts of
ham and beef with more of
what they came for.
If one goes to such an ai-
fair anticipating some goon
conversational moments with
the host and hostess, he is in
for disappointment. He may
find them at the door but
hostessing such an affair
seems to preclude spending
more than a fleeting moment
with any but the most special
guests. At its best, it is a time
of getting acquamted but no
more than that with a few
new faces. At its worst, it is
rubbing elbows, backs and
middles with a mass of un
friendly freeloaders.
Mass Production
The big cocktail party on
the Washington scale is a mass
production device. It is em
ployed by those who feel
obliged to entertain a .long
list, a mass, of personages in
this city because of their po
sition. When they fall from
position, they are scratched
from the lists.
FREE PARKING
SHCIAIISTS IN HOMfWAtfSf
Some defend the institution
as most useful to busy politi
cians and diplomats who, after
a cocktail or two, can meet in
formally and possibly . see
eye-to-eye on issues which for
mal dealings would fail to re
solve.
This accomplishment is like
ly to be found in the small
dinner parties that are a de
light of this city's social life.
In this type of affair, the guest
can sit down and even- expect
to have a substantial conver
sation with the hostess. It con
veys all the warmth and inti
macy that is so foreign, to a
bustling, crowded cocktail
party.
One is led to suspect that,
quite the opposite of the small
dinner party, the cocktail par
ty has thrived on respect for
position and privilege, and
disrespect or just lack of car
ing for people as people. For
those who make the cocktail
party their principal means of
social contact, it has become
the instrument of superfi
ciality. The Germans, to be sure,
will never be the same again.
Russ Rocket Thought
In Outer Mongolia
Washington (UPI) Two
American scientists said to
day the rocket which ac
companied the first Russian
sputnik probably came down
in outer Mongolia, Russia's
backyard, and not in U.S.
territory, as Soviet Premier
Nikita Khrushchev has claim
ed. They said their calculations,
based on observations of the
rocket during its last days,
show it "could not have fall
en during its last pass over
the continental United States,
nor m fact for several passes
thereafter."
The statements were made
by Robert Jastrow and Ian
Harris, physicists working for
the Naval Research Labora
tory, in an article in Science
Magazine.
At a diplomatic reception
in Moscow last Dec. 6,
Khrushchev said part of the
third-stage rocket that launch
ed Russia's first earth satel
lite "fell on the U.S." Dec.
1, "but they do not want to
give it back to us."
Foreign Aid Cut
By $872 Million
Washington (UPI) The
House Appropriations Com
mittee today chopped $872
million off President Eisen
hower's foreign aid program
for the 12 months starting
July 1.
It recommended new mili
tary and economic aid appro
priations totalling $3,078,092,
500. The President had asked
for $3,950,902,500.
The slash recommended by
the committee exceeded by
$597,500,000 that already im
posed on the aid request in a
compromise authorization bill
which was about ready to be
sent to the White House.
The cut also was $115 mil
lion higher than committee
members had predicted.
Mount Katahdin, Maine, is
the first point of land in the
United States to catch the
rays of rising sun.

Bing Crosby To
Seek Pardon for
War Hero Robber
Hollywood (UPI) Singer
Bing Crosby and his brother,
Larry, are planning to seek a
pardon for a war hero, who
attempted to rob Bing's pro
amateur tournament at Pebble
Beach, Calif., last Jan. 13.
"Bing has told me to do
my best to get a pardon for
Colonel Blair," Larry said
Thursday in announcing plans
to file a petition of pardon
with Gov. Goodwin J. Knight
within a week.
Melvin Blair, 42, a retired
lieutenant colonel with 21
years of Army service, was
overpowered by Sheriff's Dep
uty Tom Martin when he
attempted to take $40,000
from a safe the officer was
guarding.
Spotless Record
The former Army officer,
a decorated veteran of Mer
rill's Marauders during World
War II and Korea,, was con
victed and imprisoned at
Chino.
"He has a spotless service
record," Larry said.
. "We believe that after
strenuous service in two wars
this man was not adjusted to
civilian life. But we think
that he can be, and he should
not lose his citizenship rights
and his pension."
Larry explained he and
Bing did not interfere, with
the course of justice because
they were not asked to appear
at Blair's trial.
"Now we want to take the
only avenue to help Colonel
Blair," he said.
Authorities said Blair con
fessed attempting to rob the
safe because he was in finan
cial difficulties.
Portlander Says
Russ Buzzed Him
Portland (UPI) A Port
land pilot said today that Rus
sian jets buzzed his plane too
close for comfort" while he
was on a flight to Warsaw', Po
land this week.
The pilot, L. D. Scott, said
he was, flying a C-54 owned
by General Airways of Port
land" from Denmark to War
saw to pick up Canadian busi
nessmen who had been visit
ing relatives.
He said that "a half dozen
Russian, jets that looked like
MIGs intercepted us and made
passes across our nose." He
said the Russian planes did
not fire any shots or try to
force the C-54 down but "they
gave us some bad moments."
Sultan's Troops,
Money Missing
Aden (UPI) The Sul
tan of Lahej has been inform
ed that some of his troops and
a lot of his money are miss
ing. The Sultan, Sir Ali Abdul
Karim, went to London re
cently for a three-month visit.
One of his military com
manders and about 70 mem
bers of the 600-man army dis
appeared Wednesday night. A
substantial amount, report
ed to be $280,000, of the state
treasury disappeared with
them.
The Aden government said
the deserters, and the money,
were believed to .be in neigh
boring Yemen.
Lahej is the strongest of
the eight semi-autonomous
sultanates in Britain's West
Aden protectorate.
