French Defeat Of EDC Plan Shocks German Government BONN, Germany W West German government leaders, shocked by the defeat of the Eu ropean army project, plunged Into special conferences Tuesday to consider new foreign policy moves. Acting Chancellor Franz Blue cher met in Bonn with the fed eral cabinet. Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, vacationing in the Black Forest, conferred with his top foreign pol icy advisers and with an official from the German embassy in Paris.' Government officials said the 18-year-old chancellor had no pres ent plans to break off his vaca tion despite the crisis facing his European unity program. , He called his ministers to meet with him Wednesday at his moun taiutop hotel, the Buehlerhoehe. His Christian Democratic Party, dominating the government coa lition, Issued a statement saying Jury Returns 545 Charges PHENIX CITY. Ala. t.fl Mas terminds of Phenix City's withered, gambling empire faced the grim' prospect of prison Tuesday as a grand jury which has already re turned 545 indictments turned Its vice hunt In a new direction. The jury, concentrating first on gambling, handed down indict ments against 59 individuals Mon day and then went back to work immediately to broaden its rackets investigation into other fields. The Jurors plan to consider elec tion frauds, charges of corruption in public office, organized prostitu tion, B-girl rackets and perhaps even what National Guard investi gators have called a "flourishing" abortion ring. Four of the big gambling lords were indicted Monday, including three members of the family ot Oodwin Davis Sr., who has long been identified as the boss of a $15,000 a day lottery syndicate. Another defendant was the fore man of a recent grand jury which found no evidence of gambling in Phenix City. C. W. Franklin who signed that jury report last spring, was indicted on 25 counts of oper ating a lottery and one charge of possessing gambling equipment. His bond was fixed at $13,250, RED TOUR TOKYO Iffl The British Labor Party delegation led by former Prime Minister Clement Attlee landed in Canton Tuesday after noon on its tour of Red China, Pelping Radio reported. the European unity Idea is not dead. "The European idea is strong enough to overcome this momen tary defeat," the party said. But many West German and Al lied officials felt that, the French had handed the chancellor the greatest political setback in his five years as head of the govern. mcnt. Allied observers throughout West Germany reported rising dis illusionment and bitterness be. cause Adenauer's policy hasn't gotten Germany back her sov ereignty or her Tight to rearm. Other anti-Communist quarters in Western Europe grudgingly conceded the Reds had made a gain as a result of the French action but refused to give up hope of finding a way to rearm Ger. many. Underlying the feelings ranging from painful disappointment to outright bitterness against the French were fears the setback might lead the United States to withdraw from Europe. The Com munists, with Moscow calling the tune, were Jubilant. Britons looked to Prime Minis ter Churchill once again to save the day. His foreign secretary, Anthony Eden, decided to send a deputy to represent Britain in the South east Asia defense talks opening next week In Manila and stay home himself to deal with the Eu ropean crisis. The French press was divided as sharply as the French people. Nearly all newspapers except the Communist organ voiced con cern over the consequences of the French rejection. Among them were some which had previously cast doubts on the EDC. i WASHINGTON t.Ti Th3 Ameri can Legion aimed its mammoth convention parade Us biggest ever or close to It down historic Pennsylvania Avenue today When it would end was any body's guess. Right up to the first "forward march!" at 2 p.m.. officials ack nowledged they did not how how long the marchers would be step ping by. But. they predicted, it would be far into the night. And they had plenty of advance statistics on the swirling mass of drum majorettes, legionnaires, la- dies' auxiliary members and the funloving 40-and-8ers: Some 75.000 to 80.000 naradin foi 8, maybe 12, hours to the music of about 350 bands. Along the route perhaps as many as 100,000 spectators, some of them govern ment workers given the afternoon off. That would be bigger than the 03,000 or so marchers at the St. Louis legion convention last year. bigger even than the record 70,000- plus at New York In 1941. Ten parade divisions, each with Us own marshal, made up of marchers, bands and floats from the 48 states, District of Columbia and abroad. A hundred square blocks marked of! on Capitol Hill for the parade's formation area, big enougn to handle 100,000 marchers, and a dis persal area of 35 square blocks near Lincoln Memorial. Legion officials said the parade would go on regardless of weather. Last night legion banqueters heard Mme. Chiang Kai-shek tell of China's Communist enslavement and Soviet Russia's actions tnwurri her country since as far back as 1926. The wife of Nationalist China's leader brought a sympathetic audi ence to its feet in applause when she said in measured words: "Conquerors have come and con querors have gone, but our way of life has withstood them and will continue to withstand the present brutal masters. . . . "We Chinese will not be slaves long. This I promise you ... for there are countless living and de termined heroes on the mainland as well as on Formosa." Mme. Chiang's speech was her first public appearance since com ing to the United States for medi cal treatment several months ago. Also last night the legion was on the receiving end or protests from two olher organizations, t.ie Ameri can Medical Assn. and Americans for Democratic Action. The AMA hit back at what It called an "attack" by Legion Na tional Commander Arthur J. Cou ncil on the AMA's "stand against the admittance of non-service-con- nected cares to veterans hos pitals". The doctors" group issued a statement saying that Americans "did not follow the colors to be come wards of the government Connell had accused AMA last week of conducting an ".intl-veter-nn crusade" and declared the legion will continue Its fieht to net beds In federal institutions for ill veterans who can't afford hospital nil's. , ADA, which calls Itself a liberal political action group dedicated to the principles of thp New and Fair-" Deals, protested as "scur rilous back-fence art a namting displayed In the legion's National Security Room.
