Bulosrfen Corf Sentences
Former Diplomat To Death
VIENNA lUPli A Commu
nist court in Sofia today sen
tenced to death former Bulgar
ian diplomat Ivan-Assen Gcorg
lev for allegedly spying on be
half of the United States, ac
cording to the Bulgarian news
agency BTA.
BTA called the verdict "final
and without right of appeal." It
said the Bulgarian Supreme
Court decreed Georgicv should
die by firing squad.
Previous Communist news
agency reports from Sofia indi
cated the former diplomat in
offect had invited the death
penalty for his crimes, which
he was supposed to have com
mitted to pay for mistresses on
both sides of the Iron Curtain.
Georgicv, 56, went on trial for
treason on Thursday. BTA had
reported previously that he
made a full confession the first
day and said that Monday state
prosecutor Ivan Vachkov de
manded the death penalty for
him.
Western observers had pre
dicted he would get the death
penalty.
Radio Sofia, fn braodcasts
monitored here, said Vachkov
called Georgicv "a traitor to
the homeland, a spy of the
American intelligence." Even
the former diplomat's defense
counsel was quoted as say
ing his guilt was "irrefutable."
But the defense asked the
court not to give Georgiev the
"heaviest penalty." In Bulgaria
execution usually is by firing
squad.
BTA said the handsome dip
lomat, former No. 2 man in the
Bulgarian delegation to the
United Nations, testified he
turned over military, economic
and political information to
agents of the U.S. Central In
telligence agency during a sev
en year period.
Vachkov claimed Georgicv ad
mitted the CIA spent more than
$200,000 "on him and his para
mours." Communist news agen
cies have quoted him as saying
the CIA supplied him with Pa
risian and Bulgarian mistresses
while he worked in New York.

Foreign Aid
Faces Knife
Again In '64
WASHINGTON (CPU - If
President Johnson thinks he
had headaches with the foreign
aid bill this year, just wait un
til l4.
Rep. Otto E. Passman, D-La.,
already is looking forward to
culling next year's program by
at least half a billion dollars
below the $3 billion that Con
gress finally voted for the cur
rent fiscal year.
This is right in line with
Passman's stcp-by-stcp strategy
to chop the foreign aid pro
gram down to procr size,
which in his view is about $2
billion.
The $') billion aid hill ap
proved by the Senate Monday
before Congress adjourned its
longest session in 22 years was
a far cry from the $4.5 hillinn
that President Kennedy asked.
Informed sources said that
Passman, chairman of the
House foreign aid appropria
tions subcommittee, would be
shooting for a $2.5 billion pro
gram in the new session, with
the lio)c he could reach the $2
billion mark in I!Mi!i.
President Johnson knows the
fight is brewing. He ordered a
lop-level review of the objec
tives and organization of the
U.S. foreign aid program. The
five-man While House group
has been instructed lo report to
him by Jan. 15.
The group's recommendations
will serve as the basis for the
President's foreign aid mes
sage to Congress, expected late
in January or early in Febru
ary. Passman regards the appoint
ment of such groups as part
and narccl of Iho annual bat
tle. Every President since the
program started 15 years ago
has ordered a similar "hard
look" at foreign aid, Passman
has labeled such studies as
"whitewash."

PHILADELPHIA UP1 - A
court hearing was scheduled to
day on a suit by the National
Association for the Advance
ment of Colored People
i NAACP) seeking to bar black
face clowns or minstrels from
a parade on New Year's Day.
Two other civil rights groups,
the Congress of Itacial Equality
(COKE) and the Committee
For Freedom Now, threatened
to form a human chain to block
the 641 h annual Mummers pa
rade Wednesday if any of lite
marchers use blackface make
up. Charles W. Bowser, attorney
for the local NAACP, filed a
request Monday for a prelim
inary injunction against the use
of blackface and Common
Pleas Court Judge Theodore
llcimel set the hearing.
Bowser noted that city offi
cials have tried lo discourage
the use of blackface but said
the NAACP wants "this matter
determined in the courts and
not in the streets."
Louis Smith, chairman of the
local, chapter of CUUE, said
that the blackfaced marchers
were a "gross insult" to Ne
groes. Smith and Stanley Blanche,
head of (lie Committee For
Freedom Now, said in a joint
statement that "since the city
of Philadelphia has given the
blackface mimics the green
light, we have no choice but to
use our bodies to s4op this pa
rade." The dispute started when
Magistrate Elias Myers, the
parade director, and city lice
reation Commissioner Hobert
Crawford announced that black
face marchers would be banned
from the parade.
After protests and demonstra
tions in Iron! of his home by
members of some Mummers'
groups. Myers said the makeup
would be allowed as lung as the
marchers "behave themselves
and don't poke fun at any
body." Crawford later announced
that blackfaced m a r c li e r s
would not be eligible for the
cash prizes awarded lo partici
pants in the parade, which in
cludes clown clubs and string
bands.
During the weekend, about 50
Negroes staged a sit-in in the
lobby of a television station
iWCAU - TV i which plans to
telecast the parade locally.
