Back in Capital Ike Faces Double-Barreled Work Load duties and politicing for the election of a Republican Congress, Mr. Eisenhower plans to make four appearances before the election three of them away from' Washington. He also must begin work on the legislative program he will submit to Congress in January. Continued jrom the First Page Chaplains to Bishop Wright were Rev. Leonard Paprockl, C.

S. S. chaplain of Deaconess Hospital, and Rev. M. Brook, S.

chaplain of Boston City Hospital. Among those atendine the mass were Mayor Hynes and Dr. John Conlm, administrator ot Boston City Hospital. More than soo doctors, nurses and persons associated with the medical profession, paraded from the new Boston College Law School on St Thomas More drive to St. Ignatius Church, where they were joined by a profession of clergy from St.

Ignatius Rectory. The medical procession was headed by Dr. Albert Murphy, president of the Guild and Dr. William J. bulnvan, program chairman.

A detachment of R. O. T. C. officers from Boston College under the command of Capt Bradley L.

Vogt, served as a color and honor guard. Bishop Wright pointed out how untutored peoples, however primitive, instinctively associate healers and holy men, frequently confus ing the functions ot priesthood and ol medicine. He declared that this confusion, though inaccurate, bore witness to humanity's intuition that priests and doctors, con cerned as they are with the sources and purposes of life, both do a truly divine work. Compared to Priests A recent ana excellent book on 'The Physician and His Prac tice quotes Dr. bydney Burwell of this area, as describing the relation between physician and pa tient as akin to that between teacher and student -In our opinion, this relation resembles more closely that between priest and parishioner, perhaps more exactly that between priest and penitent" The bishop analyzed several parallels which make the priest and the doctor kindred, but uite distant servants of humanity.

"The parallel between physical health and moral virtue has frequently been exaggerated. Historic heresies have confounded the two, some in the western world exalting physical health as if it were a form of virtue; others, especially in the Orient, preaching a perverse moral code which exalted alleged spiritual virtue at the expense of bodily health and even mental sanity. So, too, the parallel between sin in the soul and sickness in the body, betweeq error and disease, has been twisted to yield similar follies of a medical and religious kipd. "The parallel between forgiveness or absolution on the one hand and the renewal of Vital strength on the other suggests that we may be on the threshold of new understanding of the rela tions between nature and graice, body and soul, as a result of prog ress in wnat we now call psycho somativ! medicine. Bishop Wright concluded that doctors conscious of these exalted duties and opportunities "should be able to fulfill the two great commandments of the law, love of God and love of neighbor, with enviable ease." The mass was attended by reore- sentatives of Greater Boston hospital staffs and medical societies, as well as by individual doctors'.

SauPue nnhcft cairi that hA to "Grab Bag" Says Stevenson ALBUQUERQUE, N. Oct. 16 (AP) Adlai Stevenson has ques tioned the "propriety" of Secre tary of Defense Wilson's participa tion in the fight for control of Congress. Speaking at a Democratic rally last night, Stevenson also opened fire on various Eisenhower Administration policies, including its power approach. "While the President flails at the public power serpent," said the Democrats 1952 Presidential candidate, there looms a monstrous new and Government- blessed private monopoly." Here, he referred specifically to two items: (1) the proposed Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) contract with the Dixon-Yates syndicate to pump private power into the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) area and (2) a newly enacted revision of the nation's basic atomic energy law.

Stevenson charged the Admin istration with trying to set up a kind of private gams preserve for a few large concerns." "Step ty step." he said, "we have seen the pattern unfold and the great crusade become the great grab bag." On the Wilson matter, Sttivenson said the Eisenhower Administration has "abandoned the sound end good tradition of no politics in the Defense Department" by allowing the Secretary of Defense to function as a Republican campaigner. ARREST Continued from the First Page Keenan replied in the affirmative and Lombard- asked: "Are those statements true?" "Well, I'm noted as a liar," retorted the prisoner. He was picked up shortly before police raided a Roxbury house investigators believe may have been used by Burke as a hideout after the escape. The raid was at a dwelling on Dana where, police reported. a set, of burglar tools was found hidden in a baby grand piano and large sum of money was taken from a pickle jar.

Capt Francis W. Russell of the Roxbury Crossing Station said a girL picked up at the Dana pi. address, told him Keenan was there the night of Burke's escape, along with Allan G. Locke, 45, of the Back Bay, and William Cavan augh, 26, of Jamaica Plain. Locke and Cavanaugh are now in Dedham Jail, under indictment on charges of aiding, in the jail oreaK.

Set Up for Hideout According to Capt Russell, the girl said Keenan, Locke and Cavanaugh brought a set of burglar tools to the house that night. Earlier the same night, a tele phone company office on Roxbury Roxbury, was broken into and $1206 taken from the safe. Capt Russell said Keenan has admitted he and two other men staged this break, but 'refused to name his accomplices. The captain also said an unusually large quantity of canned goods was found in tbe Dana-pl. house.

This strengthened police belief the dwelling had been prearranged as a hideout for Burke. Besides this, police discovered a sales slip for a suit of clothes, made out to Cavanaugh by a Connecticut clothing firm. Cavanaugh and Locke were Eicked up in Hartford, on ept. 20. Keenan appeared in the lineup today along with four other men accused of breaks in Roxbury recently.

Three were brothers who live on Warren Roxbury, aged 19, 25 and 26. The fourth was a 40-year-old Roslindale man. Keenan admitted knowing Cavanaugh but denied friendship they knew of the pair held in the sensational jail break. i4 WASHINGTON, Oct 16 (AP) The government tively agreed to contract terms designed to insure the Dixon-Yates power group a 9 percent profit on its investment, with no specified profit ceiling, if it builds a new plant near the Tennessee Valley. This was revealed today by a study of the controversial and still-under-wraps ninth draft of the proposed contract, which the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) has approved but not yet signed.

Based upon present cost estimates the contract now calls for the AEC to pay $20,746,000 annually, including Federal and local taxes, for the 25-year life of the contract $177,000. a year more than previously reported to President Eisenhower and Congress, The AEC would absorb any major increases in the cost of coal and labor, as well as taxes, end would be credited for decreases, the contract shows. The document now is before the Senate-House Atomic Energy committee, which is scheduled to meet Nov. 4 to decide whether to give an immediate go-ahead for the project or hold it over until the next Congress. Foes Oppose Quick Approval The Administration has asked for quick committee approval Op ponentt want consideration put of? until the next session ot Con gress, as required under normal procedure for such contracts.

The law requires a committee review of the contract before it goes into effect but does not allow the Senate-House group to veto It or change its terms. The disputed plan a center of the power con troversy calls for the Dixon- Yates private power group to build a $107,000,000 steam plant at West Memphis, Ark, the plant would send electricity through Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) public power lines to replace, some TVA power used by AEC Dixon-Yates group, composed of Middle South Utilities, and the Southern Company, would invest ss.soo.ooo. The re maining amount would be bor rowed by Dixon-Yates from prr vate sources at about 3 percent interest and this interest cost, the contract shows, would be paid by AEC as part of Dixon-Yates' charges. Representative W. Sterling Cole, Rep.

of New York, chairman of the atomic committee, indicated today the AEC soon may make the proposed contract public The AEC approved it early this month, but the terms have not ii i i 5 .1 S- closure by critics of the plan. Cole Favors Releasing Contract Cole returned to Washington today and reportedly contacted AEC officials about releasing the document after being asked to do so by at least one member of the committee. Cole told a newsman "There is nothing to hide." "The Administration preferred to wait until the committee acted on it," he said. "But as one member of the committee, I see no reason" why it cannot be published. He said this should be done by the commission, rather than the Congressional group.

A copy of the complex 50-page proposed contract made available to the Associated Press showed that: 1. Basic yearly charges to be paid Dixon-Yates by the AEC woirfd include $495,000 identified as 9 percent of the companies con. templated $5,500,000 investment. Any earnings above the 000 would be placed in a special fund from which Dixon-Yates could withdraw to make up the difference in any year when earn ings fell below that figure. When the fund exceeded the company and the AEC would split the excess.

(Whether Dixon-Yates might actually earn more than 9 rjercent is a separate question, informants said, depending on economic factors and on the ruling of Federal and state regu latory commissions.) 2. Dixon-Yates if authorized to sell power generated beyond AEC needs and to tie in other utility lines to the proposed plant. The contract specifically calls for a tie in with the Arkansas Power and Light Company, a subsidiary of Middle South Utilities. 3. The AEC would pay replace ment costs for the first five years at the annual rate of $524,000, in eluding whatever portion of that is taxes.

After that period AEC's replacement payments would drop to about yearly. Has ProvUo for Income Tax 4. As part of one charge to it tinder the contract, the AEC would pay Federal income taxes, now computed at $536,250 yearly, and would meet any future increase. In. another charge, the AEC would py all state and local taxes ex cept such payroll levies as Social Security so that, the contract says, "the amounts received by the company ihall be net after all such taxes.

The general accounting office has ruled. that the Federal income tax provision does not violate the ban Congress voted last Sum mer against direct AEC payment ol these taxes lor Dixon-Yates. ine congressional action was aimed at making Dixon-Yates in' elude the taxes in figuring its oost 5. An escalator clause nrovides for increases or decreases in AEC payments reflecting specified changes in the cost ot delivered coal and for each four-cent change in average hourly wages above $1.97. 6.

Dixon-Yates is absolved of responsbility for failure to produce power through causes beyond its control, but the AEC is obligated to continue paying a base capacity charge of $3,052,050. If, during the period of a major shutdown, the AEC wants more than 200,000 kilowatts of power, it must last the the the to if fied of 3.89 IU. not for E. on the a actual cost of obtaining it from outside sources. Splits Construction Costa The Dixon-Yates controversy first sprung to national prominence Summer during the Senate's marathon debate on overhauling atomic energy law.

It has been major point of contention ever since. Critics of the project, mostly Democrats but including some Re publicans, say it is a blow at TVA. They have termed the contract a "give-away" and a deal specially tailored to benefit big private power interests. Jhe administration and its power policy say the plan would help prevent TVA from expanding too far. They say contract is a money-saver for government and was fairly negotiated.

The contract also provides for a 50-50 split between AEC and the company cn any increase in con struction costs from $107,000,000 $117,000,000, and for a reduction the total falls below the present $107,000,000 estimate. The maximum increase to the government would be $273,244 annually. The Bureau of the Budget noti Congress that the cost to AEC the proposed power would be mills per kilowatt hour, at coal prices figured in the con tract It compared this with these other costs now paid by AEC: Oak Ridge, Tenn, TVA, 3.78; Faducah, Ky, TVA, 3.83 and Electric (E.

2. Dixon-Yates Is assuming a risk that it cannot recover all increased costs of labor and materials, which was not done previously. POLITICS Continued jrom the First Page He charged that the Governor broke a promise to provide money for education and points to school construction, "refraining, conven iently, from telling the people that his spending for school construction is the result of legislation passed several years ago.

Tonight he will be in Medford and Cam bridge. Today's political activities car ried on the programs started last night by many candidates. Senator Saltonstall appeared on television yesterday to declare that he was "rededicating himself to the mission of uprooting the Communist conspiracy in the United States." State Treasurer Foster Furcolo. Democratic candidate for Salton-stall's post, toured the Blackstone Valley in central Massachusetts, returning to Boston for a televi sion address in which he outlined seven-point "program of action" to help Massachusetts economics. Tomasello Saps Herter Municipal Court Judge Frank V.

Tomasello spoke on a television program against Gov. Herter. who, he said, had made "a bold attempt to use our courts for political patronage." He added that the Governor's juvenile court bill "the cut-up-the- apple pie for the politicians bill" had raised a "storm of protest alLover the state. "It is not unreasonable to expect that the cost of this scheme would eventually total over $1,000,000 a year," he said. Representative Charles Gibbons.

Speaker of the Massachusetts House, on another television pro gram, charged that Representative Murphy "failed miserably at the job of minority floor leader." He declared that many Democrats had deserted Murphy in voting for state issues. TRUCK STRIKE Continued from the First Page Certain items handled by truck drivers coveied in special contracts will continue to move, however. These include fuel, milk, meat, fruits and vegetables, bakery goods, building supplies and beer. The strike was called by 12 teamster locals whose members work for approximately 3000 firms in New York and New Jersey. Asked if the stoppage might spread to other parts of hte country, the union's chief economist, David Kaplan, replied, "If there is a trucking strike in one area it is difficult to prevent it in others." The union seeks an hourly in crease ot zo cents In wages ana five cents in pension and welfare benehts.

The last employer offer was a package increase of 10 cents an hour. Hourly wages now range from $1.77 for helpers to $21 for drivers or trailer trucks. A. special citizens' committee appointed by Mayor Wagner sought unsuccessfully to arrange a compromise on a 17-cent increase this year and an eight-cent increase next year. WASHINGTON.

Oct. 16 (AP) The National Foundation for In fantile Paralysis said today there will be only one "authoritative" report on whether the Salk vaccine is effective, against paralytic polio and it won't be ready until next Spring. Foundation officials said reports on children involved in last Summer's nationwide test of the Salk polio vaccine are being made avail able only to a university or Michigan research, group making an "independent" evaluation of the trials. They said state, county and local health departments agreed to this course and that even though the foundation sponsored the field trials and is financing the' Michigan study, the foundation itself is not receiving and does not want to receive any information from any source on any seemingly -ap. parent results, either favorable or otherwise, until tne Michigan groun makes its report.

The polio foundation made its views public, through a statement and in interviews by its officials. in an obvious effort to scotch what it regards as any premature or misleading accounts as to the outcome of the widely-publicized trials. The statement said: No vaccine yet developed (against any disease) has proven 100 percent effective. For this reason there are at least two ques tions to be answered in regard to the Salk vaccine. First, does it work, and second, if so, how well does it work Need All Evidence "For example, the vaccine may not protect an individual from in fection with the polio virus, but "Leak" Probers Raid Home of French Captain PARIS, Oct.

16 (Reuters) -French Counter-intelligence Agents investigating the leakage of top-secret information from the National Defense Council today raided the Paris home of a French Army Captain. The Captain whose name was not disclosed, was reported to have been in contact with Roger Labrusse, a Senior Defense official, now in jail on a treason charge for passing secret information to Communist newsman Andre Baranes. Interior Ministry sources said the search was aimed at -finding evidence which might link the Captain with the leakage of mili tary secrets. MALDEN Continued jrom the First Page Opponents of the measure had the question submitted to the voters on a referendum at the city election that year. The referendum was defeated.

The City Solicitor, Bernard J. Kaplan, ruled that the refusal of the voters to approve of the measure constituted a mandate. As a result the city failed to pay the salaries as provided in the measure. The city referred the matter to the Attorney General's office for a ruling with the result that the city was ordered to pay the money. Atty Gen George Fingold ruled that the legislation was binding on the city and that the referendum was out of order.

Under the city's plan of government there are seven Aldermen and 21 Councilors who are elected every two years. Gioiw sum St. Luke's Guild of Report Waits may nevertheless reduce or elim inate paralysis due to the disease. A foundation official told a newsman: "We at the foundation are purposely avoiding listening to bits of information we might hear in visiting various parts of the country. "we want this to be a complete evaluation based on all the evi dence, and we want it to be en tirely unprejudiced and independ ent as far as the foundation is concerned." 1 In explaining why the study re quires a long time, the foundation said detailed information had to be obtained on about 1,800,000 children involved in the test in the United States, including 440,000 who received one or more "shots" of the vaccine, another 210,000 who received injections of an inert placebo" and the remainder who' received no injections of any kind.

To Check Polio Cases Also, under the plan of evalua tion: 1. Any cases of rolio reported" either among the vaccinated, or nonvaccinated groups, would have to undergo extensive laboratory-tests to isolate the polio virus to confirm that the case actually was. polio. 2. Any cases diagnosed as polio- among the vaccinated or nonvaccinated groups would have to be observed for an extended period oi time to determine any differences in degree of paralysis between cases in the two groups.

Also, blood tests of some 40,009 of the children, taken at three different intervals with the last not scheduled until around Nov. 1 will form part of the evaluation picture, the foundation said. Truman to Speak. at Rally Tonight KANSAS CITY. "Oct.

18 (UP) Former President Truman. put on the sidelines by doctor's orders, was scheduled to make his only political speech of the 1954' Congressional campaign tonight. There was no hint what Mr Truman would say at the $5 fried cnicKen dox luncn supper, which will be a Democratic fund raising rally. But it was almost sure to be in the Truman "give 'em hell" fashion that nut him hark in tha Presidency in 1948. A number of top-drawer party leaders also were scheduled to attend the supper in the big Kan-' sas City Municipal Auditorium.

There was no official report on how ticket sales were going, but party leaders hoped the supper would raise between $40,000 and for the Democrats' coffers. 'Monkey Burglar' Held in $2000, Pal Hunted in Break Hugh Shields, 17, of Blue Hill whose "monkey -style" tactics, of burglary backfired yesterday, was bound over to the Suffolk' Grand Jury in $2000 when he was arraigned in 'Roxbury Municipal Court today.

Shields -pleaded not guilty.

Patrolman Francis Finnell of the Dudley-St Station told the court i that he spotted the defendant hiding in the store. He said Shields gained entrance through a skylight, climbing down by a rope. Police are seeking a Charlestowa 18-year-old youth as an accom- plice. Police said Shields informed them his friend was able to climb up the rope "monkey style" before they arrived. Dominick Pino, 54, of 46 Cottage st, Dorchester, who opened the locked store for police, said some small change had been taken.

WASHINGTON, Oct 18 (UP) President Eisenhower returned to the White House today where he faces a mountain of work piled up during his eight-week work-play vacation.

The Chief Executive and Mrs. Eisenhower arrived at the Capital at 12:10 a. E. S. aboard the Presidential plan only a few hours after Hurricane Hazel had passed near the city.

Mr. Eisenhower was anxious to kr.ow how Washington had fared during the storm. Mr. Eisenhower, en route back from the Summer Whife Rouse at Denver, paused in In dianapolis, last night for a speech in which he blamed the Democrats "for a serious loss of buying power" of the American farmer. The President appeared refreshed from his Colorado vacation, which was his longest absence from Washington since he took office two years ago.

Although he put In several hours of work each day during his vacation, the Chief Executive faces a back-breaking load of work at his regular desk. He returned to Washington as the campaigns for control of Congress in the Nov. 2 election entered a crucial period. In addition to his regular AFL and CIO Name Board to Work on Merger WASHINGTON, Oct. 18 (UP) The C.I.O.

and A.F.L. moved quickly today to carry out an agreement by their leaders to merge the nation's two largest labor or ganizations. A subcommittee has been appointed to draft a blueprint for the new organization. Leaders of both groups were optimistic that the long-sought merger would De achieved soon. A C.I.O.

unity committee announced yesterday that it unanimously decided "to create a single trade union center in America through the process of merger which will preserve the Integrity of each affiliated national and in ternational union." A.FX. president George Meany said he "certainly" thinks the two huge unions will be able to merge by the end of next year. C.I.O. president Walter Reuther did not predict when the merger will be accomplished, but he also was optimistic about the move. The unity committee, to eliminate one obstacle, agreed to merge the two parent bodies first and then work out jurisdictional and other problems between individual rival unions.

LONDON Continued from the First Page At the same time a spreading wildcat bus strike has knocked more than half the teemnig capital's double decker buses off the streets, bringing a weekend of traffic chaos. Faced with a grim warning from the government, millions of housewives prepared to stock up their larders. A Ministry of Labor statement issued after an emergency Cabinet meeting last night said the walkout of 24,000 London 'dockers "is having a serious effect on the country's export trade, is endangering food supplies and threatens to cause unemployment in other industries." The Ministry said its efforts to negotiate a return to work in the harbor had failed and "no progress can be made by negotiation at this stage." Britain lives by food imported from abroad. A third of that food, and the trade that pays for it, is channeled through the port of London. In his Indianapolis speech Mr.

Eisenhower said farmers cad suf lered a "steady decline" under the farm law enacted by previous Democratic Administrations. "Yet some would have our farmers believe that in the future thus law will do what it has failed to do in the past," he declared. He said Democrats had been able to postpone the "inevitable day ol reckoning as lar as the Amen. can farm market is conrcrned be cause of markets created by World War II and the Korean war. Now, he said, the United States has a farm program geared to peace and not war.

Congress this year enacted the Administration flexible price sup port plan which will replace the Democratic sponsored high, rigid price prop program beginning with next year's crop. Flexible vs. high price supports is a key issue in the Congressional battle. "In the two years before this Administration took office parity dropped 19 points, Mr. Eisen hower said.

"In 1947 a cotton farmer could buy a pickup truck with nine bales. But by the end of 1952 it took not nine but 14 bales." Dons Handcuffs on Pal's Dare; Captive Hours A 21 year old Dorchester man today has a lot of praise for the Boston Police Department, who had the "key" to his problem. Richard Rowell of Dorchester av. spent eight hours in handcuffs after a dare from a friend. Rowell went to Division 11 at Fields Corner, seeking to have the old-style cuffs removed.

Unable to unlock them, police took him to Headquarters. There officials hunted through hundreds of old keys and came up with one that did the trick for Rowell. Rowell told police that his friend walked away from him after the cuffs were put on. Police found Rowell walking around in the rain looking for away to get the cuffs' off. Now Rowell is walking around looking for his so-called "friend." Lodge Brands as 'Lie' Russian Charges in U.N.

UNITED NATIONS, N. Oct 16 (UP) The United States branded as a "lie" today Russia's charge that the American Navy took part in aggressive attacks against the Communist-held China Coast and islands lying off it. Soviet delegate Andrei Y. Vishinsky demanded that the United Nations General Assem bly pin responsibility on the United States for "acts of aggression" in the area of Formosa and the China Seas and direct the American Government to take steps to put an end to them. United States Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge Jr.
