(AP Wirephoto) PHILADELPHIA U.R) Rocky Marciano, slugging son of a Brock ton, shoemaker, won the world's heavyweight championship Tuesday night from Jersey Joe Wal cott on a 13th round knockout that caused Joe's manager to retire him. Counted out at 43 seconds of the 13th round, 38-year-old Walcolt was assisted to his dressing room, where Manager Felix Bocchicchio announced the punch-and-prayer warrior must retire or "fight without my management." Walcott, who had been ahead on the official scorecards when he was knocked unscious by a terrific left hook to the chin, agreed after some hestitation to go along with his manager's advice. "If he says I'm through, I'm through," Walcott said.

"Rather than take a chance on him getting hurt, I am retiring him," Bocchicchio said. "If he goes on it will be without me."

Stevenson accused Republican congressional leaders of sabotag ing every anti-inflationary measure in Congress during the past two years. "It is hypocrisy for these men to present themselves now as the de fenders, or even the friends, of your dollar, he said.

"Inflation will not be driven out by campaign orators flapping their arms like scare-crows."

"I also appreciate the committee having pointed out the magnitude of the price support operations of this department and that of its $10,000,000 of commodities handled in the last five years it sustained a present maximum loss from all causes of approximately one-tenth of 1 percent.

Adlai's Cabinet Members Deny Knowledge of Fund WASHINGTON (JP) A Senate Committee reported Tuesday the Agriculture Department has been lax in some of its vast grain storage operations. These "administrative deficiencies," it said, were a contributory factor in the "embezzlement" by private warehousemen of $10,000,000 worth of stored government grain over a five-year period.

However, there was Ao evidence of personal profit to government workers, the Senate Agriculture Committee added. The report summarized a six-month investigation of the government's grain storage program. The Commodity Credit an agency of the Agriculture Department, buys and stores grain to support the price paid to farmers. Senators received evidence that some private warehousemen who got the job of storing the grain diverted it to their own purposes, hoping to replace it before the government called for it. The report was unanimously approved at a session attended by eight committee members, 5 Democrats and 3 Republicans before it was made public.

Five members were absent. Agriculture Secretary Charles F. Brannan made this comment on the report: "I appreciate the committee again making public the fact that no evidence was presented to the committee that any CCC personnel Stevenson, Roosevelt 'Roomies' at Harvard CAMBRIDGE, Mass (Stevenson and Roosevelt are roommates at Harvard College.
