The thug who blinded Victor Riesel for a $500 fee from mobster Johnny Dio thought he was ambushing, an unfaithful husband at the time of the attack.

He wasv murdered nearly four months later because he demanded $50,000 more upon learning ther true identity of his victim, U. S. Attorney Paul S. Williams said today.

He was told he would be properly rewarded in two weeks. The two-week period ended on July 28, and Telvi was killed." CALLS IT 'MINOR FACTOR Telvi was shot on Johnny Dio's orders after receiving a second $500 for bunding Riesel, Williams said. The FBI has said Telvi was killed because acid splashes on his face would have made him living evidence in the Riesel case. But Williams said this was only a minor factor in Dio's all-out battle to keep his iron grip on the garment industry. Williams made these disclosures at the arraignment of Dio, whose real name is John Dioguardi, and three others arrested with him by the FBI yesterday.

They were Dio's brother, Tommy, 40; Charles Tuso, 44; Domenico Bando, 47, and Charles Salvatore Carlinc, 43. HELD IN $100,000 BAIL All but Tommy Dio were held In $100,000 bail each.

Aug. 29 (AP). Despite a heavy guard, 30 convicts fled ffom a Kilby prison gravel pit today in a bold dash that ended in death for two prisoners. Two men died and 12 others were injured when a prison truck which the fleeing prisoners had stolen was wrecked only a few miles from the prison. One prisoner was hit in the leg by a ricocheting bullet fired by two guards from a pursuing truck The 15 other convicts were rountVed up promptly alter the wreck and returned to their cells.

Prison Director J. M. McCul- lough identified the dead convicts as Noah O. Hasty, and James Williams. SHOT IN LEG Shot in the leg during the wild chase along a farm-to-market road was Julius Christian, 29.

The prison director said the 30 prisoners, all "maximum security" convicts, were en route under armed guard to the prison gravel pit to load two trucks. The prisoners were in one truck, Guards W. T. Smith and G. E.

Moore trailed behind in another. When they reached the gravel pit, McCullough said, two of the convicts jumped from the truck body and overpowered the driver, a prison trusty, and sped away. CHASED 3 MILES Firing at the tires and at the fleeing convict who had taken the steering wheel, the guards chased tha prisoners three or four miles before the fleeing men wrecked their truck. The guards tried several times to pass the other truck to block the road but the convicts cut into their path. At times the two trucks were racing wheel to wheel, McCullough said, but the guards weren't able to pull in front.

The director said the guards were "highly commended" for their "alertness" and their "handling of the whole matter" in preventing what would have been the greatest mass getaway in Alabama in years. The most recent mass prison break iij Alabama was in September, 1951, when 21 convicts overpowered guards, captured the prison arsenal and escaped from inside Draper Prison at nearby Speignex, Ala. Nixon's Father Suffers Relapse WHITTIER. Aug. 29 (INS).

Vice President Richard M. Nixon's father suffered a seri ous relapse today, but Nixon was informed it was unnecessary for him to return from Washington at this time. Dr. I. N.

Kraushaar said he had informed Nixon of the critical con dition of his 77-year-old father. Frank A.

The White House, Vice President Richard M. Nixon and Secretary of Labor James P. Mitchell all voiced Spy Scare Grips Site Of Parley Developments as tension mounted in the Suez crisis yesterday: Egypt's President Nasser fixed Monday as the day to begin talks in Cairo with a five-nation committee on the future of the Suez Canal, but Egypt fanned anti-British feeling by jailing two more Britons on espionage charges. Story on Page 1 Britain and France served notice they still were prepared to use force, if necessary, to keep the canal in operation. A joint statement said French troops would join British, forces on the Mediterranean Island of Cyprus in a Suez expeditionary force.

Story on Page 2 President Eisenhower called on all nations interested in justice to support the 18-na-tion plan for international control of the Suez Canal. Story on Page 2 LONDON, Aug. 29 (AP) President Gamal Abdel Nasser, moving on his own slow schedule, today finally fixed Monday as the day to begin talks in Cairo with a five-nation committee pressing for International control of the Suez Canal. Britain and France obviously were clearing for action in case the negotiations on the canal fall through and their nationals were subjected to attacks in Middle East countries. The two countries arranged to use the island of Cyprus as a springboard military base.

French troops were presumably en route to Cyprus by sea. SOVIET OBSTRUCTION The Soviet Union tonight appeared to be the only non-Arab Power still prodding Nasser to hold out without compromise. India threw her weight behind appeals for any mutually acceptable peace settlement. V. K.

Krishna Menon talked for two, Vimire with 'Nasser after flvine to Cairo from London, where he had! presented a plan for purely advis ory international supervision oi the canal and was supported by the Soviet Union, Indonesia and Ceylon. "We are not trying to push any one proposal against another," Menon said. "We are only trying to see some peaceful solution satisfactory to the parties concerned." Nasser's government, meanwhile, named two more Britons making seven in all as members of an alleged spy ring operating in Egypt. The Egyptian government charged that the British, with Egyptian accomplices, had pried into Egyptian military secrets for the last four years. Cairo newspapers reported they planned to overthrow Nasser's regime.

Of the seven accused Britons two are embassy secretaries with diplomatic immunity. They have heen riven until Fridav night to leave Egypt. The two were accused of being spy ontact men. Egyptian. authorities said a purported confession from the alleged spy ringleader, James Swinburn of the British- owned Arab News Agency, named "Mr.

O. Saint John and Mr. Cox" as former contact men. James Zarb, a British subject in the export-import trade, was arrested and charged with being a spy, the British Embassy reported. VEXED OVER DELAYS The British and French were showing signs of impatience over delays in getting the talks with Nasser started.

Nasser asked Australian Prime Minister Robert G. Menzies, who heads the five-nation committee, to come to Cairo for talks on the canal Nasser seized as Egypt's own little more than a month ago. The committee will present the plan approved by 18 nations at the London Suez conference last week calling for international control of the 103-mile waterway. Nasser's reply was so slow in reaching London that it appeared he might be taking as much time on the canal. But there has been no break in the solid front of the 18 nations which want the canal removed from Egypt's sole control and placed under control of an international operation authority.

President Eisenhower today proclaimed Wednesday, Sept.

12, as a national day of prayer. In a proclamation carrying out the direction of a Congressional resolution which has provided for the special day of prayer each year since 1952, he declared: "The appointed day is one on which to give solemn thought to the mercies bestowed upon us, to lift our voices in unified thanks for the spiritual blessings we enjoy, especially the profound bless ing of freedom, and to acknowl hower today, even as he accused the President of backing down on his promises to labor. The Democratic Presidential nominee offered to help the farmer get his "fair share of our National abundance" which he said the Republican Administration was deny-in him. And, in a recess between conferences on farm issues, he got out a statement accusing Mr. Eisenhower having "only a deaf ear for labor." STEPS UP CRITICISM The labor statement came after Stevenson told party workers from seven agricultural States, that the farmer was not getting his share because "there's nobody in Washington looking out for his.

The shortened phrase, used for several years by several Republicans, was put into official use for the first time fit last week's Republican National Convention in San Francisco. Almost every GOP speaker referred to the opposition as the Democrat Party. MATTER OF POLICY L. Richard Guylay, public relations director for the Republican National Committee, said it "will be a matter of policy" for Re publicans to refer to Democrats as members cf the Democrat Party. Well aware that the strategy had Democrats boiling, Guylay said with a chuckle: "What's happened to the 'ic'? That's the question." CITES HIS REASON Guylay said the GOP felt that "Democratic as an adjective is not descriptive of the party as it exists today." He said Republicans felt thai the party of the Democrats should be "more properly" called the Democrat Party because of the "diverse viewpoints" within it.

He contended that the origin ol the shortened name is "obscure." But simmering Democrats recalled it was used repeatedly by Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy Wis.) during the Army-McCarthy hearings. 'SURVIVAL EXPECTED Before leaving Sioux City, Iowa, Adlai E. Stevenson's press secretary, Clayton Fritchey, said he felt the Democratic Party would "survive" any Republican attempt to change its name.
