Corruption (Continued From Page One) The committee forthwith served him with a subpoena to produce all his records and bank books. Agent William H. Dettmar, jr., Rockville Center, N. Y., was an~ other agent .who reported some luck at the race tracks. Expressing complete willing ness to give the committee full details of his financial life, Det tmar said he had supplemented his agents salary of around $6,900 a year by winning around $1,500 to SI,BOO a year on harness racing. Al of it was listed in his tax re turns, he said. The fourth agent to testify was 29-year-old Jack Neustadt, an ex serviceman who started in the In ternal Revenue Bureau in 1946. Chairman King (D-Calif said Neustadt’s statement of financial net worth in 1946 as listed on his job application, was $2,400. He noted that Neustadt's estimate of his current net worth, as given to a superior in August, was $25,600. That, King said, “warrents an ex planation.” However, Neustadt refused to give the committee any informa tion until he could discuss it with an attorney.

Officials of the French-British controlled Suez Canal Company reported last night that traffic through the great ocean short cut had not been disturbed by the Anglo-Egyptian dispute. Local officals of the company said the “normal number” of ships —about 1,100 a month—were con tinuing to pass through the 104- mile waterway linking the Red Sea and the Mediterranean. It was learned yesterday that British military families have been evacuated from Suez and Port Said and moved to nearby military camps. Informants said they were pulled out because military per sonnel have no Egyptian residence permits and live here under the terms of the 1936 treaty. General Sir Brian Robertson, commander in chief of British land forces in the Middle East, was flying back from London with orders to resist Egyptian ouster attempts. Two Incidents Two more incidents were re ported yestrday. A British army spokesman said a British supply truck was fired on, apparently with an automatic weapon, between Ismailia and Tel eEé-l{ebix'. No damage was report- Egyptian authorities in Insmailia announced that the bullet-riddled bodies of two Egyptian soldiers were found early today on the Suez Ismalia highway, 10 miles south of Ismaillia. A British army spokesman said ne incident had been reported Thursday night or Friday in the area where the bod ies were found. In Alexandria 16 demonstrators were wounded in the legs when police fired to break up a student demonstration. Britian barred Egyptian troops from the Suez Canal area yester day, except when in transit with advance notice. A spokesman said the action was necessary because Egypt has an army division in the Sinai Penimnsula, East of the Canal. (In London Britian tartly worn ed Egypt she would hold the Cario Government responsible for riot damage to British property in the Suez Canal and elsewhere in Egypt.) Britian also was reported taking precautions to the south in the Sudan, the vast cotton-growing region which she has controlled jointly with Egypt. Concurrent with its action on the Suez treaty, the Egyptian parliament voted an end to the 1899 agreement esta blishing the joint control and named King Farouk ruler of Egypt and the Sudan. British authorities in the Sudan, the pro-government newspaper Al Balagh reported, banned all assemblies there and announced any attempt to hold such would be met with force.

It further recommended that the Commissioners report back to the jury within 60 days the result of their study of this matter. “Hot Rod” Peril In its recommendations, the jury said, regarding “hot rods”; @ “It is the belief of this Grand Jury that all organized criminal activity, particularly bootlegging, in this county is based on the use of automobiles which have been re-built to give excessive speeds, commonly known as ‘hot rods.’ In addition to this use by criminals, a large number of thoughtless youths have these automobiles which they operate on the streets and highways, frequently racing each other at extremely high speeds. This activity is a grave peril to other citizens on the road at the same timre. “In an effort to control this menace, and feeling that a similar control should exist over these au tomobiles as now exists over pis tols and other deadly weapons, we strongly urge our representatives in the legislature and state sena tor, as well as the Mayor and BEAUTY CONSULTANT Miss Lucille Baker, Sears own beauty consultant, for Lyric Cosmetics will visit our Order Office here in Athens, Ca., Monday, Oct. 22.
