Boxing Promoter
Criticized for
Not Cooperating
Los Angeles (UPD Boxing
promoter Jackie Leonard, vic
tim of a mysterious fire in his
home . Sunday night, was criti
cized Monday by Police Chief
William Parker as "uncoope
rative." "Leonard has been a diffi
cult person to work with in
many respects," Parker said.
He accused Leonard of be
ing careless in following po
lice instructions designed to
protect him from possible re
venge by the underworld for
his testimony about gangland
attempts to infiltrate Califor
nia Boxing.
Sunday's fire which caused
$1,000 damage to Leonard's
bedroom in his nearby North
ridge home was probed by ar
son investigators to see if it
was deliberately set.
Second Attempt
Leonard claimed it was the
second arson attempt at his
home in two weeks. He said
he discovered a can of gaso
line outside the bedroom win
dow July 12;
Parker, in criticizing Leo
nard, said the Hollywood Le
gion matchmaker "revealed
that we had installed electron
ic devices in his office and we
had asked him not to. Also, he
failed to record telephone con
versations as we had asked
him to, and for which we pro
vided the equipment. The
gasoline incident was not re
ported for three and a half
days after the can was found
at his home." .
Leonard told reporters he
was informed by police intelli
gence officers that the under
world has placed a $500 on
his head.
"That's not much money,"
said Leonard, "but I under
stand some hired killers will
work for as little as $250."

Vetoed Bill Will
Fight Inflation,
Meany Says Today
Washington -(UPD- AFL-CIO
President George Meany said
today the vetoed Democratic
housing bill would fight infla
tion rather than fan it as Pres
ident Eisenhower charged.
"Inflated prices are the re
sult of scarcities and short
ages," Meany told the Senate
housing subcommittee. The
measure would make possible
the construction of 200,000
homes, " he said, and thus
would "help reduce inflation
ary prices rather than increase
them."
"Experience as well as
common sense indicate that
housing prices decline when
the housing volume expands,"
Meany said. He urged Con
gress to override the veto.
If Congress did not approve
a housing bill this year, he
said, "the dilatory actions of
a reactionary coalition in the
Congress and the indefensible
veto by the President of the
moderate, constructive bill"
would be responsible.
Eisenhower rejected the big
Democratic bill as "inflation
ary" and "extravagant." The
subcommittee is holding hear
ings before deciding whether
to try to overturn the veto or
to draft a less expensive substitute.
Mayors and other munici
pal officials last wek urged
Congress to override the veto.
Some sensators, including two
Republicans, criticized the
President's veto message as
misleading.
In earlier letters to each
senator and House members,
Meany urged the lawmakers
rally the two-thirds majority
needed to upset the veto.

In Highway Chase
Fort Worth, Tex. -0JPD-' Po
lice raked a car with more
than 100 bullets and killed
one man today in a high-speed
highway gun duel following
a narcotics burglary at an Ar
lington, Tex., drug store.
About 20 Arlington and
Fort Worth officers, speeding
after two men and two wom
en fleeing the burglary scene,
pumped more than 100 shots
at their getaway car before it
smashed into a tree at Syca
more Park here after running
two roadblocks. '
The dead man was identi
fied as Westley Bentley Jr.,
36, an ex-convict from Dallas.
He was shot in the head sev
eral times and died in a Fort
Worth hospital.
Bentley's three companions
weathered the hail of police
gunfire. They were identified
as Bentley's wife, Mrs. Lila Jo
Bentley, 33; his brother, Carl
M. Bentley, 29, Dallas, p.nd
Myrtice C. Smith, 27, Dallas,
identified as Carl Bentley's
girl friend.
The chase started at Arling
ton, about 14 miles east of
Fort Worth, before dawn
when Arlington Patrolman
James Carmichael, 26, sur
prised the two men coming j
out of the pharmacy carrying j
narcotics.
Carmichael said he shouted !
at the men, but one dropped j
to the ground and fired( two j
shots at him. Then they j
