New Trial Denied To Jealous Killer; Wife "Loves" Him! Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Aug. 5 (AP; Robert C. Rutledge todaj' lost his fight for a new trial or, the charge that he killed his wife bachelor admirer. District Judge J. E.

Helserman denied the defense motion and set 10 a. m. next Monday as the time for sentencing Rutledge. The penalty can range from 10 years to life imprisonment. The young doctor's tall, good-looking wife, Sydney, meantime, made known that she still loved her husband and intended to stick by him.

She left Cedar Rapids this afternoon for her father's home in Hannibal, and does not plan to return for the sentencing Monday. Dr. Rutledge, 28-year-old St. Louis child specialist, was convicted last May 28 of second-degree murder in the hotel-room slaying of Byron C. Hattman, St.

Senate Votes Seizure Of Island Stevedores; Bridges Is On Scene Under New Wisconsin Rent Control Law. A nattily-dressed young man who, Cincinnati police say, plagued druggists throughout the Midwest with bogus checks while posing as a salesman for a national wholesale drug company which recently discharged him, rested in Cincinnati Jail last night. Within two minutes after Station broadcast a report on the suspect, he and a companion were nabbed dramatically at Oak and Vine Elmwood Place, by Elmwood Chief Thomas Fitzpatrick and Cincinnati Patrolman Sidney Haas. The suspect, Ronald Chidester, 22, Salt Lake City, Utah, confessed passing 15 small checks to Cincinnati druggists in the last week, police said. Chidester further admitted passing numerous false checks in Billings, Boise, Idaho; Las Vegas, Salt Lake City and New Orleans.

He exonerated his companion, registered as Cecil Greenfield, 25, Billings, a shoe salesman. Both were held for investigation, however. Most of the checks were for small sums, ranging from $5 to $25, Chidester said. Chief Fitzpatrick and Haas spotted the pair at Oak and Vine Sts. after Station received and broadcast a tip that they were In that vicinity.

Greenfield was seated in his automobile, parked opposite Meininger's drug store. Haas found Chidester in the store, where he had just cashed a check for $10. "I was going to leave Cincinnati after cashing that one," Chidester said ruefully. Behind the tip that resulted in Chidester's apprehension lay a night of work on the part of Louis F. Lanich, 3145 Beaver Pleasant Ridge, district representative of the Whitehall Pharmacal New York.

Lanich passed Thursday evening warning Cincinnati druggists to be on the alert for a man posing as a Whitehall representative after he had received numerous complaints that such a person had been passing bad checks to druggists in Price Hill, Oakley, Hyde Park, Pleasant Ridge, Silverton and Norwood. Through the description given by bilked druggists, Lanich learned through his home office that the man in question probably was Chidester, who was fired by the firm four days after his recent hiring as a salesman in Salt Lake City. Lanich said he was fired because of a bad credit rating. Upon being discharged, Chidester left the company's automobile in a Salt Lake City garage, as instructed, but failed to turn in the company's briefcase containing order books and other materials. Chidester said he then went to Billings, where he became acquainted with Greenfield, who agreed to tour the country with him.

Without Greenfield's knowledge, Chidester said, he forged Greenfield's name on the phony checks. Lanich was told by the hoodwinked druggists that Chidester worked his racket in Cincinnati in this manner: Posing as a new district representative replacing Lanich, Chidester would take routine orders for merchandise. As he was about to leave the store he would ask the druggist if he would mind cashing a small check, explaining that a "tire blew out on my car" and I have to get it fixed, but I'm short of cash." Lanich said Chidester had visited at least 35 Greater Cincinnati druggists and that he knew of 12 who had cashed checks for him. These were Dugan's and Shea's stores, Price Hill; Decker's, Hyde Park Square; Meyer's, Madison and Edwards Whitehouse's, Oakley; Cover's, Madisonville; Mullaney's and Frueckmeyer's, Pleasant Ridge; Henslng's and Kelley's, Silverton, and Puis and Stagge's, Norwood. In his confession, Chidester said he had passed 15 checks here.

Detective Chief Clem W. Merz requested that each of the druggists come to City Hall today to file warrants against Chidester. Chidester's downfall was precipitated by Milton Crigger, owner of the Elmwood pharmacy, 6100 Vine who, forewarned by Lanich, called police after Chidester appeared Difference Of $283,199 A Year Is Requested In Petition To FPC. i BY ISABELLE SHELTON. IPuhlnftoB Bureau, 137 Ntt'l Ptcu BMf.

Washington, Aug. 6 The Ohio Fuel Gas Co. applied to the Federal Power Corfimission today for a rate Increase which would raise by $283,199 a year the price of gas it supplies to the Cincinnati Gas Electric Co. The FPC said this was "one of the largest rate increases ever proposed to the commission by a gas Utility company." C. G.

E. is the second largest purchaser from Ohio Fuel, which eells gas wholesale to many Ohio utility companies and communities. C. G. E.

HAS WORD M. J. Pfeiffer, Company Manager of Gas Production for the Cincinnati Gas Electric Issued the following statement on the application of the Ohio Fuel Gas Co. to the Federal Power Commission for a rate increase: "The wholesale rates for natural gas are fixed by the Federal Power Commission. The increase being requested by the Ohio Fuel Gas Co.

is about 12 per cent, and It involves about one-fourth of the natural gas purchased by our company. "Whether the requested increase Will be granted or not we cannot predict. Our company and the city will probably be represented at the Federal Power Commission hearings." Ohio Fuel seeks a rate increase ef 4.2 cents for each 1,000 cubic feet, which approximates $1,228,568 a year In computations based upon anticipated sales. It proposes to make the new rate effective September 6. FPC says the proposal now is under study, and it hopes to rule before September 6 (a month from now).

Commission spokesmen said ic "seems likely" that, if the increase should be granted, Cincinnati Gas, and Electric and other local distributors would attempt to pass It along to their retail customers. However, they said, this is outside the jurisdiction of the FPC, which nly regulates firms which transport gas in Interstate Commerce, Ohio fuel said the proposed increase was necessary because unprecedented postwar demands had necessitated changes in sources of gas supply and large purchases of natural gas from the Southwest. This change in operation had required heavy investments in' production and transmission facilities cf some $25,000,000, the company elated. In addition, it averred, the cost of gas purchases has increased approximately 'three cents a thousand, and labor and material costs have increased Hawaii Stevedores, was loading the Isthmian freighter Steel Maker. Bridges arrived by plane this morning from San Francisco.

(He made his comments at a press conference. The 2,000 stevedores of the CIO union in Hawaii have been on strike since May 1, demanding a raise of 32 cents in their $1.40 hourly pay. The highest employer offer, later withdrawn, was a 14-cent raise. Bridges said he felt it was his union's responsibility to continue to strike until wage cuts imposed on unorganized workers were restored. He said Hawaiian firms had blamed these Wage cuts on the strike but they were not economically justified.

Some concerns have cut wages and laid off employees on ground of lack of business as the dock slrike has progressively paralyzed Hawaiian trsde. The longshore union boss asserted also that the strikers should insist on reinstatement of American Federation of Labor teamsters who have been suspended for refusing to cross picket lines. Bridges said one way to settle the strike would be arbitration by a board of local Hawaiian businessmen not connected with any of the "Big Five" sugar agencies. Arbitration has been a consistent union demand, but employers havo rejected it on grounds that wages should not be fixed by outsiders who lack financial responsibility. Honolulu, Aug.

5 (AP) Hawaii's Senate today passed a bill to perm't government seizure of seven struck stevedore concerns In the territory's paralyzing 97-day waterfront walkout. The Senate acted as Harry Bridges, President of the International Longshoremen's and Warehousemen's Union (CIO) arrived from San Francisco to see if it was "worthwhile to continue or, if necessary, to compromise" the strike. The measure now goes to the House for final action. It provides that the territory may hire striking longshoremen at the pre-strlke scale of $1.40 an hour. The strikers demand a 32-cent wage boost.

The reception of the measure in the House is uncertain. The House passed a bill setting up a government stevedoring company and banning the employment of strikers. The Senate balked at the House measure. Gov. Ingram M.

Stain-back also opposed it, favoring tin seizure plan. Bridges appeared confident as he met newspapermen. He said in his opinion the strike was "in no danger of being lost" as long as ships of the Matson Navigation Co. could not sail. Matson Is the largest carrier between the mainland and Hawaii.

As Bridges spoke, however, a new nonunion firm began loading the first canned pineapple since the dock strike began May 1. Landlords Lie Low While CIO Fights For U. S. Price Protection. Madison, Aug.

5 (UP) Labor leaders fought a new state rent decontrol law tonight as thousands of Wisconsin tenants braced themselves against 15 and 30 per cent increases in rent liabilities. The new regulations would replace all Federal controls in the state today. A storm of protest gathered quickly among tenants, veterans groups and labor organizations. Landlords generally were moving slowly to take advantage of the law, but Mr. anil' Mrs.

Enrique Racf In Milwaukee were notified right off that their monthly rent would jump to $300. A Milwaukee realty firm told 800 tenants theii rents would climb 15 per cent. Spakesmen for property owners predicted that landlords would go easy in asking for rent boosts, but officials of the Wisconsin CIO Council weren't taking chances. They went ahead with plans for blocking the law with a court order. Herman Steffes, council said the union would seek to force Tighe Woods, Federal Housing Expediter, to restore U.

S. controls in Wisconsin on the grounds that the state law provides "no control at all." CIO leaders charged that Gov. Oscar Rennebohm admitted that he stood to gain $8,000 a year from the new regulations. Rennebohm has been unavailable for comment but his office says rents on the property he controls probably will not be raised. The new law calls for total decontrol next June.

Communities can, with gubernatorial consent, decontrol immediately if their housing emergency is ended. The act takes advantage' of the local option provision of the Federal law, now-being contested in Federal Courts. Communist Deputies of the National Assembly were arrested for refusing to move on. The disturbance was slight. The Communist chorus on the outskirts of the spacious square chanted "We Want Peace" and sang the Communist anthem, the Internationale.

The three American Chiefs of Staff, whose presence in France was the pretext for the advertised demonstration banned by police, saw none of It, CONFER 35 MILES AWAY. They were at Fontainebleau at the time, 35 miles away, on one leg of a busy round of talks with French and European Union military commanders, exploring the preliminaries for the Atlantic Pact defense system. Six thousand police and soldiers, using customary massing strategy to frighten off threatening Communist uprisings, kept the peace in the Place De La Concorde. The United States Embassy is in a corner of the great square. A small Communist delegation was permitted inside the Embassy.

Brig. Gen. Joseph O'Hare of the Embassy staff received the delegation but said it was not his place to accept any petition. Ambassador David Bruce refused to see the Communists today but said he would be glad to receive them tomorrow. Members of the delegation said they wanted to protest aggression against "peace-loving Russia." POLICE CROWD AREA.

More than 100 busses and trucks loaded with police and gendarmes-armed with rifles and prepared to use tear-gas crowded into the area. In addition to an array of command cars and radio jeeps, a police plane hovered over the area as a trouble-spotter. A few armored cars also were on hand. The American Chiefs, Gen. Omar N.

Bradley, Adm. Louis Denfield and Gen. Hoyt S. Vandenberg passed over four hours in military talks on their first full day here. In the forenoon they met with the three French Chiefs of Staff and lunched with them and Defense Minister Paul Then they went to Western European Union military headquarters at Fontainebleau, the place where Napoleon signed his abdication.

General Vandenberg told reporters "What we were talking about was to get ideas of what type of organization is best from the military point of view." NO BIG DECISIONS. The American chiefs spoke to reporters briefly at odd moments but made no comment on the demonstration. They reemphasized that they were not making any big military decisions at this time but were collecting ideas on how to organize the defense. At Fountainbleau they called on some of the victorious Generals of World War II Viscount Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery, Gen. Jean de Lattre de Tassigny and Air Chief Marshal Sir James Robb.

An official communique called the Fontainebleau meeting "a useful conversation in a most cordial atmosphere." Tomorrow the U. S. chiefs will talk with military leaders from Belgium, Holland and Portugal. They said they would lay a wreath on the tomb of the French Unknown Soldier Sunday, then hold a news conference before leaving for Vienna. BY JOHN M.

HIGHTOWER. Washington, Aug. 5 (AP) Tha Truman administration today publicly abandoned all hope of saving China from the Reds by aiding its Nationalist government. In an unprecedented blast, it labeled that government as a dismal failure In the war against Com. munism.

(See Highlights On Page i 1 Instead of aiding it, the administration laid down a policy of encouraging the Chinese people to throw off the "foreign yoke" of a Red regime which, Secretary -of State Dean Acheson charged, serves Russian imperialism, The new turn in American policy was announced in a letter from Secretary Achison to President. Truman, presenting him with tha long-awaited White Paper On American Relations With China. It was amplified in a statement which Secretary Acheson made to a news conference an hour after the Whita Paper was made public at 10 a. Eastern Standard Time. REBUILDING IS STRESSED.

In the statement, Mr. Acheson laid down five "basic principles" for American relations with China, with emphasis on rebuilding "an independent" Chinese natipn. Mr. Truman had endorsed tha Acheson letter at his own news conference yesterday and there was no doubt that it represented tha considered views of the administration. It accepted the Communist conquest of China as an accomplished fact Mr.

Acheson argued that the Nationalists are militarily incapable of blocking the forward march of the Red Armies into those areas of China which they do not yet actually control. The official record of Chinese-American relations probably is without parallel in U. S. diplomatic history for its criticism of another friendly government. It bluntly blamed China's fall to Communism on Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek and other Chinese Nationalist leaders.

It said their unwillingness to win popular support for their leadership was the root caune of their "failures." NO LACK OF IX. 'S. AID. No battle was lost by the Nationalists for lack of American aid. Acheson told the President In his letter.

This aid since, the end of the war has totaled more than he reported. The administration report was assailed promptly by members of Congress who long have favored greater assistance to the Chinese Nationalists. Their attacks on the report as a "face-saving" explanation were countered by administration supporters in Congress who described the bulky document as "realistic." The white paper Included not only Mr. Acheson's letter but also a 408-page running account of American-Chinese relations since including the famous Wedemeyer report, and a total of 18 diplomatic documents. Many of the.

papers were classed, until today, as top secret. Four Polio Cases Are Added; Hospital Total Stands At 45; Two Victims In Same Family in his store.

Seeks Only Limited Aid For Parochial Schools, Cardinal Spellman Says New -York, Aug.

5 (INS) Francis Cardinal Spellman declared tonight in a statement issued after he first sought the views of Eleanor Roosevelt that American Catholics were not asking for general support of parochial' schools. The Cardinal said Catholics were asking Congress to provide only incidental benefits such as transportation, health aids and purchase of nonrellglous textbooks. His two-page statement, released by an aid and accompanied by a four-paragraph statement by Mrs. Roosevelt, was seen as an end to the dispute between the two over Federal aid to public and parochial schools. It followed a suggestion by Mayor O'Dwyer of New York that the former First Lady and the church leader resolve their differences.

Mrs. Roosevelt said in her statement that "his eminence, Cardinal Spellman, called me Thursday evening, August 4. He asked me to go over a statement which he would like to release. I have read it and think it a clarifying and fair statement" She said she wished to reiterate "that I have no anti-Roman Catholic bias." Tonight's development folowed an earlier exchange of letters between the Cardinal and Mrs. Roosevelt in which he charged her with being anti-Catholic in her views on a bill before Congress providing Federal aid to schools.

Tonight, the Cardinal said that because of "the great confusion and many regrettable misinterpretations over Federal aid to education," he felt it his duty to state In simple terms his position. He added: "Again I repeat that firmly 1 believe in and shall ever uphold the American right of free speech which not only permits but encourages differences of opinion. "In line with this great American privilege I have stated that it is consistent and just to defend children who attend parochial and other private schools from what we feel is unfair discriminaion." The Cardinal was apparently referring to the Barden bill, which would limit the use of Federal tax money appropriated for education to public achools. Ho continued: "It is important that everyone should understand clearly what we are asking for under constitutional law, and, for what we are not asking. "We are not asking for general public support of religious schools." I He pointed out that In New York Stale, the constitution prohibits use of public funds for support of sectarian schools, as in the practice in many other states.

General Brooks said the Army does not plan to issue a draft' call in the immediate future and will not use the Selective Service Act if strength can be maintained by volunteers. A pick-up in recruiting is expected.

"But we still feel that it should be kept on the books, like money in the bank for use in case of emergency," General Brooks said. If a war crisis occurred suddenly, he explained, Congress might be unale to pass a new law in time to cope with it In any case, he estimated, 60 to 90 days would be required to get new draft machinery into operation.
