U. S. Shifts Policy On Suspending Tests U. S. Disarmament Policy Modified WASHINGTON (UP)—U.S. disarmament policy has undergone a January-to-June modification on suspending nuclear tests and halting nuclear weapons production, officials disclosed today. President Eisenhower forecast the shift when he told a news conference he would be “perfectly delighted to make some satisfactory arrangement for a temporary suspension cf tests’’ pending a search for a permanent ban on tests. Until very recently, the United States was adamantly opposed to any suspension of nuclear tests. In January, it took the position that tests should only be “limited’’ as a step toward “ultimate elimination." It was feared that a suspension would become permanent because world public opinion would not permit resumption of testing. Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. told the U.N. General Assembly on Jan 14 that any agreement to limit and eliminate nuclear tests would be a second or even third step toward disarmament. Lodge -Mid prior agreements would have to be negotiated’ end “put into effect” to (1) divert production of fissionable materials from weapons to peaceful uses, and (2) to reduce existing nuclear stockpiles. Administration policy to be unfolded soon at the London disarmament talks clearly envisages a suspension of nuclear tests, officials said. This plan would be linked with some commitment by the Russians to work out a plan on halting use of fissionable materials in war production. But this no longer would have to come ahead of an agreement on nuclear testing, as Lodfce declared in January. "We have a new flexibility in timing of these moves," one official said. Las Cruces, N. M., was founded on the site of an early massacre by hostile Indians of Spanish colonists. A later party discovered the bodies and buried them in a makeshift cemetery, placing crosses over their graves. The city built there was called Las Cruces (The Crosses). .
Parole Denied For Ex-Chicago Banker Cashed Phony Checks For Orville Hodge SPRINGFIELD, DI. (UP)—The Pardon and Parole Board today denied a parole to Edward A. Hintz, the former Chicago banker who cashed the phony checks Orville E. Hodge used to raid the state treasury. I Warden Joseph E- Ragen, of Joliet . Stateville Prison where Hintz is incarcerated, said he had been notified of the board’s decision. Ragen said Hintz now will be eligible for discharge from prison on Feb. 28, 1959. - Hintz was sentenced last August to three years in prison and a 83,000 fine for his part in the giant Hodge embezzlement. He also is serving a concurrent three year federal sentence in the same case. Hintz applied for parole and the board heard his case on May 22. He asked to be released Aug. 31, one year to the day from the time he entered prison. That would have been the earliest he could have been released, and : »ven if the board had granted a parole Hintz would still have had to win a parole on the federal sentence before he could have been released. ~ At his parole hearing on May 22 Hintz told the board he had helped force Hodge to confess his piracy by telling him that "if you don’t go to toe governor,” Hintz would.

Fischbach, a Miami attorney, was accused of acting as a gobetween for Hoffa and Cheasty. Cheasty, a former Secret Service agent, pretended to go along with toe alleged bribery scheme, but he also reported it to the FBI.
