Stevens returned from his paratrooper post in Europe yesterday on a special leave to help his wife fight a charge that she killed a sailor, Albert Kovacs, 19, without provocation two weeks ago. The couple, ‘who were married only nine days when Stevens was called to war-20.months ago, spent an hour and a quarter together last night in the jailer’s office. There was a possibility, County Attorney Lauren Willis indicated, that the grand jury would be asked toindict the soldier's wife on a charge of murder instead of manslaughter, Steiber's charge that Mrs. Stevens was carrying on an illicit romance with a neighbor was. discounted by Stevens. “I have only one thing to say,” Stevens said as he posed for -pictures with Mrs, Stevens, “I love Imogene and I am going to stand by her.” They met in a corridor of the jail and an attendant said - the dark-haired Texas girl rushed into her husband's arms, crying: “Gee, Steve!”

CIVILIANS FACE TRAVEL LIMITS

Sleeper Order May Not Meet Army Needs.

WA GTON, July 7 (U. P.).— Civilians, barred from sleeping cars on train runs of 450 miles or less, today, faced the prospect of even greater reduction in sleeping car accommodations in the hear future. Further cuts in sleeping car use for civilians ‘may depend on the extent to which the 450-mile ‘limit, which goes into effect July 15, eliminates conditions which today are forcing thousands of soldiers to travel long distance in day coaches. A total of about 895 additional sleepers are expected to be available to the armed services as a result of the 450-mile order, announced late yesterday by the office of tetense transportation. Further Withdrawals ‘Likely Whether that, additional number of cars would handle the large numbers of troops pouring into east coast ports headed for various parts of the country was problematical. Defense Transportation Director Col. J. Monroe Johnson seemed to have doubts in his mind when he issued the order, Stating that July might be the biggest month for arrivals of troops from Europe, he added: “As troops go across the Pacific in increasing numbers there may have tobe further withdrawals of sleeping cars for their use, perhaps within the next month.” Invites Cheerfulness Calling on railroad officials and the public for “cheerful” acceptance of the situation, Johnson said any delay in transporting troops “will prolong the war with Japan.” “That cannot “happen,” he declared. There have been numerous protests about conditions under which returning servicemen have been forced to travel within the country. The latest travel restriction and the previous one—a five-day limit on reservations—meant that more and more civilians would have to compete for already crowded day coach space. But Johnson, referring specially to the new 450-mile ban on sleeping accommodations, said he was sure Americans “will cheerfully accept the situation when they realize that it is one way in which they can make another important contribution to the war effort.” Two-thirds of Pullmans

The latest travel directive reserves for exclusive military use about two-thirds of “the nation’s Pullman sleeping cars. The army will continue to have priority on remaining Puliman space. The net effect of the order will be to cut out entirely the sleeping cars on such heavily travelled routes as New York and Washington, New York and Buffalo, New York ard Boston, Chicago and Cleveland, Chicago and St. Louis and St. Louis and Kansas City. On longer runs than 450 miles

and civilians may buy space as long as it is available. As the troop movement to the Pacific gains momentum the load will shift from the eastern United States to the western roads which will be heavily taxed for the rest of this year at least.

up schedule on the charter would be maintained despite the fact that the .senate is accumulating a backlog of other business. . Comniittee hearings on the charter are scheduled to start next Monday and Connally hopes to wind them up in one week. He wants to start floor debate July 16 and have the charter ratified by Aug. 1. Other Big Business To meet that schedule he is hopeful the senate can clean up during committee hearings several other pending questions.

They include the Bretton Woods monetary agreement, the controversial war agencies appropriations bill, the’ tax measure approved yesterday by the house and a $1,000, 000,000 -post-war airport -construction measure. The war agencies bill, a holdover from the fiscal year which ended last Saturday midnight, has been put on ice by the senate appropriations committee for the week-end after its emasculation in the house. Up to Leaders The job of solving differences be- |’ tween “the house and senate, particuarly on funds for the fair employment practice committee, probably will fall to leaders of the two houses. Senator Pat McCarran (D. Nev.), author of the airport bill, notice in the senate yésterday that he would try to get it up for debate when the senafe meets again Monday. Chairman Robert F. Wagner (D.
