NORFOLK, Va., April 12 (A)—
The Hampton Roads coastal area

Man Takes Wife,
Grand Jury Looks
Into Devious Way
SAN FRANCISCO, April 12 (P)
—A federal grand jury yesterday
delved into the devious way by
which William W. Fong took to
wife a pretty Hong Kong widow.
It indicted the wealthy 49-year-
old Oakland, Calif., food dis-
tributor on charges of conspiracy
to violate the U. S. immigration
laws.
Mrs. Fong, who is 37 and now
goes by the name of Helen, was
similarly accused. So was Robert
L. Levy, 58-year-old attorney.
Lloyd H. Burke, U. S. prose-
cutor, said the plot ran like this:
Back in 1939, Fong and his
mother managed to sneak into
the country one Jonathan K. Yee,
Fong’s cousin.
It cost $1,500 and Fong billed
Yee for $2,000. Jonathan still was
working it out in virtual bondage
to Fong as recently as 1951.
About 1948, Fong became en-
amored of Chin Bik Wah, the
Hong Kong widow, mostly by
mail.

By BO BYERS
AUSTIN, Apr. 12 (AP)—‘The pos-
sibility of compromise between
feuding factions of Texas Demo-
crats apparently has vanished.
Gov. Shivers said yesterday
Sen. Lyndon Johnson had lined up
with Speaker Sam Raybum and
therefore with “the minority rad-
ical wing of the Democratic party
of Texas.”
State executive committee
chairman George Sandlin said he
didn’t see how anyone could doubt
that Johnson “has aligned him-
self with the left wing of the
Democratic party in Texas.”
The Shivers and Sandlin state-
ments presaged a running ex-
change for at leaset six weeks be-
tween the Shivers-led conserva-
tives and the liberal-loyalist side
led by Rayburn.
Both sides are intent on win-
ning control of the State Demo-
cratic convention at Dallas May
22 and the 56-member Texas dele-
gation to the national convention.
Shivers and Sandlin spoke out
about Johnson after the senator
said Tuesday he would accept the
chairmanship of the Texas dele-
gation and the role of favorite
son for the presidential nomina-
tion if a majority at the state
convention so desire.
Raybum first suggested John-
son for these roles. Sandlin has

First he tried to get her in as

Fong turned to Jonathan Yee.
Jonathan, he proposed, should di-
vorce his wife, Jean, go to Hong
Kong, marry Chin Bik Wah.
Then he could bring her to the
United States, get a divorce, re-
marry Jean. Chin Bik Wah would
be Fong’s.
Yee declined.
But Jonathan was given cause
to remember about his illegal
entry into the country back in
1939.
He did Fong’s bidding.
Only one hitch developed,
Burke reported. Chin Bik Wah.
upon arriving in the United
States, would have nothing to do
with Fong until Fong got a di-
vorce from his wife.
This was more than Fong had
planned, but he complied.

. Part of the decrease in deposits
over the previous quarter is at-
tributed' to the income-tax pay-

The increase in loans is gen-
erally credited to continued con-

Value of Books
One of the first things in which
I invested my savings was in
books. I personally now have in
my two homes a total of about
10,000 volumes. About 700 of
these are reference books, includ-
ing several different sets of en-
cyclopedias. As Thomas Dreier,
board chairman of the St. Peters-
burg, Fla., public library, so well
says, “Public libraries, can feed
one’s brains as supermarkets
feed the stomach; actually, they
should be advertised just as food
stores are advertised. This is a
good thought.
You often think you would like
to listen to some famous man,
vet you can go to your public
library and bring home without
cost all the important things
which that man has ever said or
thought. It is almost as if your
local banker said to you: “Come
and get without interest all the
money you will use properly. All
I ask is that you return this
money to the bank in a reason-
able time.” Yet a better offer is
being made to you by your local
librarian.

“The other three planes es-

This announcement of air-to-
air combat in the current Arab-
Israeli crisis developed on the
heels of claims by Israel of five
new attacks by Arab commando
raiders aground last night, in
one of which three Israeli school
children and a teacher were
killed at prayer.
Angered Israeli security forces
pressed a hunt for the raiders
and public clamor for retalia-
tions mounted.
Egypt, too, registered a com-
plaint. A military spokesman in
Egyptian-held Gaza said Israelis
opened automatic fire today on
an outpost in the Beit Hanoun
area northeast of Gaza City and
an Egyptian soldier was wound-
ed. He said the outpost did not
return the fire. -
The newly established Egyp-
tian Middle East News agency
reported last night that 300 Arab
commandos had returned to their
• base in Gaza after staging a
series of 50 raids. Official con-
firmation was lacking in Cairo,
which has disclaimed responsibil-
ity for the attacks, but an Egyp-
tian embassy spokesman in Da-
mascus said the group had head-
ed back after making its retalia-
tions for the Israeli shelling last
• Thursday of the Gaza Strip, in
which 64 Arabs were killed and
102 wounded.
In Cairo, U. N. Secretary Gen.
eral Dag Hammarskjold held a
three-hour meeting with Egyp-
tian Foreign Minister Mahmoud
Fawzi, his fourth with Egyp-
tian officials since arriving there
Tuesday on his Middle East
peace mission. Then another shift
in his plans was reported.
An informed source said Ham
marskjold will remain in Cairo
until Saturday, but spend the
rest of today and tomorrow in
conferences with his own staff.
The original schedule called for
a probable second meeting with
Premier Gamal Abdel Nasser to-

Ike to Open
Campaign
On Tuesday
AUGUSTA, Ga., April 12"_
President Eisenhower will start
his re-election campaign with an
address to 800 Republican party
leaders at a Washington dinner
next Tuesday evening.
The President’s vacation head-
quarters announced this today as
White House press secretary
James C. Hagerty hit back at
former President Truman’s
charge that Eisenhower has been
a "do-nothing president.” Truman
said further in a Des Moines
speech, last night that the Presi-
dent has compiled “one of the
most amazing records of political
betrayal” on farm matters that
he (Truman) has ever seen.
“I don’t believe that Mr. Tru-
man, by his own standards, can
recognize accomplishment when
he sees it,” Hagerty told news-
men in response to a request for
comment.
Truman’s criticism and the
White House rejoinder came as
Eisenhower pondered whether to
sign or veto an omnibus farm
bill on which, congress completed
action last night. The President
has let it be known he doesn’t
think it is a good bill, but Hag-
erty declined again today to spec-
ulate about the possibility of a
veto.
He said Eisenhower’s political
address at a Washington hotel
next Tuesday evening will be
made in response to an invitation
by Leonard W. Hall, chairman of
the Republican national commit-
tee.
The President will speak to
party state chairmen and vice
chairmen, national committee
members from all the states, Re-
publican members of congress,
party finance leaders, and chair-
men of “Salute to Eisenhower”
rallies which were held through-
out the country last January 20.
Hagerty said Eisenhower is
scheduled to speak some time be-
tween 9:30 to 10 p.m. EST. He
said he did not know whether the
address will be carried nation-
wide on television and radio.
“This is a political meeting,”
Hagerty said with a smile in
replying to a question whether
Eisenhower’s talk would be politi-

Truman cut loose at Eisenhow-
er — calling him a “do-nothing
President”—during a speech at
a Democratic fund-raising dinner
last night in Des Moines, Iowa.
“Gen. Eisenhower has person-
ally been doing all he could to
keep congress from raising the

“This is one of the most amaz-

I nave ever seen in all my years

Truman said he doesn’t know

Eisenhower “may well decide
that it’s the better part of valor
to sign this bill in an effort to .
get reelected.” -

in the evening instead of after-
noon of Saturday, May 5.
G. D. BELL, county chairman,

The chairman says that while
the date of the conventions is set

chairman to set the time and
place of the meetings.
And to make surehe is on firm
ground, Mr. Bell has had two
local attorneys scan the election
laws, both of them giving him tHe

the conventions for 8 p.m. instead
of 2 P.m- as customary in the
