Ed Eisenhower Holds To View On Big Budget Elder Brother Os President Stands By Budget Views WASHINGTON (UP)-Prssldent Elsenhower's big brother Edgar firmly stuck to his cut-the-budget views today despite some White House cooking and a presidential ribbing. The Tacoma, Wash., lawyer, who caused a sensation Tuesday by calling his brother’s $71,800,000.000 budget "too big," attended a stag dinner at the White House Wednesday night. His wife, Lucy, dined upstairs in the man ion with the First Lady.' Afterwards Edgar admitted to reporters waiting for him at his hotel suite that the Chief Executive and their younger brother, Milton, kidded him about his views on the budget. Not Taking Advice "But I haven't changed my mind one bit.” he said emphatically. The 68-year-old lawyer, two years older than the President, said his brothers reminded him "that all expenses have gone up.” "Dwight asked me if my office expenses were up,” he said. “I said I couldn’t tell because I had moved and didn’t have, any means of comparing.” Hesaid he and Milton, president of Johns Hopkins University, chatted with the President for a while before the dinner. "They gave me a lesson on how to treat reporters,” he said laughing. Then, indicating the reporters in his hotel room with a wave of his arm, he added: "If I*d taken their advice none of you would be here right now.” Receives Favorable Comments Becoming more serious, he motioned to a large pile of telegrams on a coffee table. "I’ve had a stack of wires and phone calls — all of which have commended me on what I said,” he told newsmen. "And up to now nobody has called to criticize me.” “I was surprised at the reaction. It was quite different than I had expected " At his press conference Wednesday, the President tactfully brushed aside Edgar’s criticism of his budget. "Edgar,” he said with a smile, "has been criticizing me since I was five years old.” Former Policeman Tortured, Slain Find Victim's Bpdy ' In Truck Os Auto JOLIET, 111. (UP)—Authorities today said a former Chicago policeman apparently was brutally tortured and strangled before his bullet-riddled body was found ip a car near the state prison here. The victim, Salvatore Moretti, 32, was found Wednesday stuffed in the trunk of an abandoned car along a country road. He was the brother of Michael Moretti, an expoliceman serving a life term in Stateville Penitentiary here for the murder of a 15-year-old boy. Police said the killing had all the marks of a gangland murder, including the grim twist of abandoning the body near the prison. They said the victim, a Chicago car salesman, was believed to have underworld connections. Will County Coroner Willard Blood said Moretti’s body bore marks of severe torture and strangulation. There were deep rope burns on the neck and the skull and nose were gashed, apparently from a pistol-whipping. Blood said abrasions on the knees indicated Moretti had been kneeling, possibly begging for his life. Four bullet wounds in the chest and head were inflicted after Moretti had died. Blood said, The car contained no signs of violence and police said he probably had been murdered in nearby Chicago 12 to 24 hours before his body was found. Salvatore, a bachelor, was extremely close to his convicted brother, and lost his job with the Chicago Park District police in 1951 because he refused to testify before a Cook County grand jury in the sensational case. Michael was charged with shooting and killing Arthur Gamino and another youth, Edward Salvi “ 21, in a senseless murder spree. Michael claimed he shot in selfdefense during an investigation, but he was found guilty of murdering Gamino and was sentenced to life imprisonment. Authorities at first thought the victim was Salvatore's twin, Vincent, a Chicago Park District policeman and owner of the abandoned car. However, Vincent was located later and said he had loaned one of his four cars to Salvatore." The Moretti’s had been powerful political figures on Chicago’s west side until the 1951 murder trial. All six Moretti brothers and a sister are or had been on the public payroll in variqus capacities.
