The glamorous ambassador told this correspondent: “I'll be happy to do it whichever way the President decides. I want to be where he wgnts me to be.” / Mrs. Luce pointed out that unless she surrenders her diplomatic status,-she cannot hit the trail for the Republicans his, year, as she did in 1952. At that time, she proved the prize vote-getter among the GOP women speakers. Mrs. Luce conceded that top Italian officials expect her to leave the Rome post by late summer. She said they “can’t imagine political appointees doing it any other way." , •—r - « " Os her own intentions, she said: “If the time comes for me to return home and help with the campaign. I shall be glad to do whatever I can. It is entirely lip to the Prexy and secretary of state Dulles.’/ ■* W/’W The ; plgywrjght-legWtorTdiplo-mat said Mr. Eisenhower has not yet brought up the question with her, although she will see him in Washington this weekend.

Army Clears Cassey Os Violating Rules Clears General On Remarks In Georgia WASHINGTON tINSi — The army cleared Maj. Gen. Eugene M. Cassey today of any violation of regulations in remarks he made in Georgia which were interpreted as favoring..racial segregation. The finding of the army inspector general’s office said that Cassey’s; statements were “injudicious" but represented “no violation of law or regulation for which punitive action would he appropriate.” Cassey is the army’s judge advocate general. A three-week investigation of his remarks was made under the direction of Maj. Gen. David A. D. Ogden, Inspector general. < In an address before the Georgia legislature on Jan. 30, Cassey praised a pro-segregation speech by Rep. John Fly nt (D-Ga.) and said:./‘l£ I were going to make a speech, I would hope-. Ao make one like that” Today's army report said: “The inquiry - showed that while Gen. Cassey’s exact words were ambiguous and susceptible to an inference that he was endorsing views favorable to racial segregation, they were actually intended solely as complimentary references to the speaking ability of a third party and were so understood by his audience."
