THE BATTALION
Thursday. February 8, 1908
College Station, Texas Pag-e 3
WASHINGTON t^)—Sen. John
J. Williams told the Senate today
the Agency for International
Development is trying to cover up
a bribery scandal involving four
of its ranking officials in Bel
gium.
The Delaware Republican said
the four officials he did not name
had been permitted to resign
voluntarily despite charges they
had received cash or payments in
goods or services from a con
tractor.
Williams said J. & M. Adriaens-
sens, N. V. Hoboken, Belgium,
was the contractor who received
a “liberalized” contract of more
than $2 million for refurbishing
surplus U. S. goods for foreign
aid programs.
He said the Department of
Justice is filing a $260,000 claim
against the company but the
government had “dallied while
some of the records have become
lost . . .”
Williams said he was told Tues
day the case files now are classi
fied for “limited official use,”
thereby prohibiting congressional
inspection. The classification, he
said, is a cover-up.
“This is not going to be brushed
under the rug,” he said. “Nor are
they going to get away with
classifying these files until after
the election.”

SAO PAULO, Brazil OT) —
Amleto Gino Meneghetti, an
Italian immigrant who has spent

OTTAWA (A*) — A total of
12,371,407 border crossings were
made last year by foreign ve
hicles, says Canada’s Dominion

TOKY0 (A*)—A vagrant walked
into a police station, said he com
mitted a theft, and asked to be
locked up, police reported. He
gave this explanation: “My rheu
matism is getting worse again. I
wish to cure the illness protected
by the high thick walls of prison
against the cold winds of the
world.”
DAMASCUS, Syria (A>)_A
Byzantine cemetery dating from
the 4th century A.D. has been

desert city of Palmyra, Syria’s

MUNICH, Germany <A>)—The
state prosecutor’s office says it
is investigating the deaths of 400
Roman Catholic priests in the
Nazi concentration camp at

about 400 priests of German,
Austrian, Polish and Czech na
tionality died in the concentration

WILLIAMSBURG, Ky. <A>)_
Whitley Circuit Court refused
Wednesday to order the sterili
zation of a 35-year-old unmarried
mother whom doctors classify as
mentally retarded and promiscu
ous.
Judge Pleas Jones said his court
had no authority to grant the
request from the Whitley County
Medical Society and Dr. A. S.
Holmes, the county health officer.
“This is a matter for the legis
lature,” the judge commented. He
noted that under Kentucky law,
sterilization is legal if both hus
band and wife are mentally com
petent and agree in writing to
the operation.
Holmes testified the woman has
two children, one of whom is
mentally retarded, and argued
that she is likely to have other
children she cannot support.
CHAMROUSSE, France (A?) —
Coach Bob Beattie of the U. S.

Calif.
