I STAND AGAINST IIAHOUIE Says He Is Not Con-inced That Alter-nate Route Along the Mississippi Is Noi Feasible. Richard J. Mehan, Republican candidate for Mayor at next Tuesday's election, said today he is opposed to the proposed Ozark expressway route because he is'not convinced that an alternate route along the Mississippi river is not feasible.

He said he would stand behind a circular distributed by the Mehan-for-Mayor Committee which said: "The Ozark highway should be a major riverfront drive to benefit the city rather than the county, and as such will encourage business to begin rehabilitation of an entire section." "I have information that pro posals for a river route have i not been fully explored and that such a route has not been submitted to the Federal Government," Mehan told the Post-Dispatch. Suspicions Aroused. "I am extremely suspicious of the fact that various questions raised at meetings have not been answered either by Mayor Raymond R. Tucker or Myer Ableman, urban area engineer for the State Highway Commission. "In my opinion no other route but the one now proposed has been considered.

I will continue to support the river route until I am convinced that it is unsound from an economic and engineering standpoint and has been rejected by the government." The route mapped by state engineers for Ozark would displace 1378 families in south St. Louis. Ableman has acknowledged that a location along the river would affect fewer homes but said it would create major engineering difficulties and greatly impair usefulness of the traffic artery. Statement by Mayor. Mayor Tucker, in a statement last week criticizing the Board of Aldermen for failure to act on a proposed ordinance to establish the route, said the state and federal governments had decided on the route on the basis of service to the largest number of people, engineering feasibility and economics.

He added that in any event the city was in no position to deny the state and federal governments the right to fix the route, since they will pay all construction costs, about and 90 per cent of the estimated $11,000,000 right-of-way cost. The Mehan-for-Mayor circular was captioned by these questions: "Have you ever been lost in St. Louis? Will the proposed Ozark Expressway divide south St. Louis and cause another Chinese traffic puzzle besides destroying hundreds of homes?" Urges Better Air Service. In a talk before the Young Republican Club at Hotel Chase last night, Mehan charged Mayor Tucker with lack of leadership in development of St.

Louis as an air transportation center. "The recent pressure for better air service for St. Louis has been exerted largely by the Chamber of Commerce the city administration has merely tagged along," the G.O.P. candidate asserted. "The administration has shown a lack of Initiative and imagination in this area." He said the city should have a separate department of air transportation under a director "whose sole responsibility should be to organize the city's efforts to get better service through better schedules and equipment to and from the major cities of America.

"As a further basis for improving our position as an air transnortation center, a com- iniitop made un of representa tives from each of the airlines St Louis should be or- cani7prl to nromote, plan for PROPOSED OZARK I nated unborn calf skin, or something of the sort," he said. 'Almost Gordon's publicity manager made the understatement of the year, for publicity men, when he said: 'It's very dramatic." He overcompensated by adding: "It's almost unbelievable when you see an artist walk out on a stage and receive an ovation like the one we have witnessed tonight." After Presley concluded his part in the show and had been whisked out the back door, teen-agers, again mostly girls, massed outside the stage door and chanted "We want Elvis." Other girls were reluctant to leave the hall's concourse, un willing to believe attendants who told them Presley had left the building. During the earlier press con ference, in response to directions by photographers, he dutifully kissed girls on the and posed with them, clasping one on cither side by the waist. He quickly disengaged himself, not with impo lite haste, after each photo graph. lie looked like a young man being dutifully attentive to his fans, who are providing him with a life as golden as his suit.

BADEN BANK TO BUY BONDS TO FINANCE PARKING LOT The Baden Bank, 8217 North Broadway, in co-operation with members of the Baden Chamber of Commerce, agreed yesterday to buy $40,000 in city of St. Louis bonds to heln finance a community parking Jot in a shopping area. It is the first such project In the city's history and the agreement was described by Mayor Raymond U. Tucker as opening up "the log Jam on offstreet parking." The lot, which will accommodate 125 automobiles, will be on Bittner street near Broadway. It will cost $75,000.

The bonds will carry interest of a fourth of one per cent. The remaining $5000 of the cost will be provided by the city from parking meter revenue funds. Wort fcufn1d. fctofv-trnnd ptrtonntl. farfory prtt.

Two tickets terday St. Louisans who held on horses entered jes-in the Grand National Steeplechase at Aintree, England, will share with hundreds of others throughout the world $4,480,000 paid out by the Irish Hospital Sweepstakes. Biggest winner here was Al Acacio, a broil chef at Lennox Hotel, who held a ticket on the second-place Wyndburgh, and won Next, was Miss Jane McCourt, a clerk at Brown Shoe who held a ticket on Toberctta, third-place horse, and won $28,000. Acacio, who came here from the Philippines in 1923, said he doesn't quite know what he will do with the money.

He added that he wanted his son, Ronald, with whom he lives at 917 Goodfellow boulevard, to finish college and then "maybe I'll take a trip back to the islands." Asked if he might not buy a new car, Acacio- replied: "No, I've had those before and I'm not interested." Miss McCourt, when asked what she was planning to do with her $28,000, almost shouted: "I'm going to get married." She explained that she has worked at Brown Shoe for four years and one of her co-workers has been Donald Jezik of Imperial. They became engaged last Valentine's day. "The only other thing I ever won was a teddy bear here at work," said Miss McCourt, who lives at 38G0 Wilmington avenue. She said she had been buying Sweepstakes tickets for years. She plans to buy furniture and make a down payment on a home for herself and her fiance.

Agents of the Internal Revenue Service here said Acacio, a widower, will have to pay about $31,320 tax on his winnings, leaving $24,680 for himself. Miss McCourt will have to pay a tax of about $11,980, leaving her $16,020. Had she already been married, the agent noted, the tax would have been about $2500 less.

WASHINGTON', March 30 Builders and housing of- mpt, nn hmtip fi nanced by Government-insured mortgages. But they predicted stronger measures ill be needed to cure the housing slump.

Mr. Eisenhower ordered the Federal Housing Administration yesterday to cut the down payment from 7 to 5 per cent on the first $9000 of the value of new or old home bought with FHA-insured mortgage, and from 27 to 25 per cent on the balance up to $20,000. He moved also to relax a restriction on home mortgages by savings and loan associations. Support for Further Cuts. Meanwhile, support was building up in Congress for further easing of home-buying credit.

Shortly before the announcement of Mr. Eisenhower's action, a House Banking subcommittee approved an omnibus housing bill which would ease home-buying terms even more, and provide an additional of potential new Government assistance for home financing. The presidential action attested not only the Administration's concern over the 18-month decline in home construction but also its belief that inflation has ceased for the present at least to be a major economic hazard. Curb on Inflation. FHA Commissioner Norman Mason, recalling that the higher terms were imposed in July 1955 to "help curb an inflationary trend," said in a statement: Administration believes that trend has been halted and there is now a need spur home construction." Mason's superior, Albert M.

Cole, chief of the Housing and Home Finance Agency, predict ed cautiously the action "would stimulate home building to some degree" by bringing many families of limited income to the housing market, The National Association of Home Builders said the reduction could not perk up home building appreciably unless it is supplemented by new credit-stimulating legislation. The administration has two requests pending in Congress. The first would boost the interest rate on housing mortgages guaranteed by the Veterans Administration from 4V to 5 per cent, to match the FHA rate. The second would expand the Government's opera tions bolstering the mortgage credit resources of banks, building and loan companies, and other lenders. The House subcommittee bill, bp chairman Albert Rains (Dem.l, Alabama, would go further than Administration recommendations.

Use of Insurance Fund. The Rains bill proposes use of a billion dollars from the seven -billion -dollar National Service Life Insurance trust fund for direct housing loan to veterans, a move opposed by the Administration. It would also increase the mortgage purchasing authority of the Federal National Mortgage Association by another billion dollars, and liberalize down payments for both veterans and non-veterans. By last month, the rate of new dwelling starts had dropped to 910,000 a year, the lowest since 1949, and the trend was still downward. Mr.

Eisenhower suggested the down payment reduction might make it easier for veterans to buy homes under the FHA program if the supply of private funds for VA-guarantecd loans should continue to shrink. G.I. housing has been hit hardest by the contraction, because VA-guaranteed mortgages pay a lower interest rate. Higher VA Rate Rejected. The House did not grant the Administration's request for a higher VA rate in its home loan legislation Monday.

Mr. Eisenhower's order also instructed the Home Loan Bank Board to relax on regulation governing folerally-insured sav ings and loan associations. The change will allow an association to buy a participating interest in a mortgage issued by another association, so long as the original association keeps at least half the ownership interest in the mortgage. Previously no association could invest in mortgages on homes more than 50 miles from its main office.

MARKET tA Enclose Your Porch ALSCO Aluminum Jalousies or Windows CALL Mid.West Alsco, Inc. 4970 KEMPER MO. 4 9266 'EMM Aaarcssing a dinner session i the Midwest Assembly on Far Eastern Policy, Hans J. Morgenthau, University of Chicago political scientist, said United States foreign policy "backed down" in the Hungarian rebellion last fall and the Israeli-Eritish-French invasion Egypt because of fear of possible atomic conflict. Approximately 50 persons, including representatives of the State Department and political scientists, economists, business men and others interested in foreign affairs, are attending the three-day conference sponsored by Washington University conjunction with the American Assembly of Columbia University.

Morgenthau, speaking at a meeting at the home of Chancellor Ethan A. H. Shepley of Washington University, questioned the effectiveness of the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization. It has not been the major instrument in our Far Eastern policy, he asserted. Morgenthau is director of the Center the Study of American Foreign Policy at the University of Chicago.

Suggestion on Treaty. Another speaker at the dinner, Martin Bronfenbrenner, professor of economics at the University of Wisconsin, urged that the mutual security treaty between the United States and Japan be modified voluntarily before anti-American feeling in Japan forces the United States revise it. He suggested that the treaty replaced with short-term contracts that could be terminated by either nation. Bronfenbrenner, the son of Mrs. Jacques J.

Bronfenbrenner, 6908 Millbrook boulevard, University City, said, "The main objection of the Japanese to the treaty is that it leaves them way to get rid of American occupation forces without United States consent." In three separate panel dis cussions yesterday afternoon at the Woman's Building on the Washington University campus, there was general agreement that the principal aim of United States policy in the Far East is the containment of Communist China. "We are trying to rebuild the China Wall along different geographic lines and isolate the Chinese," one participant said. Names of speakers in the panel discussions were withheld. Our policy toward Japan, our participation in SEATO and other phases of our Far Eastern policy are derived from our basic goal of preventing China from expanding into southeast Asia, conferees said. Warning on Red China.

A warning that Communist China, "through subtle ideological and economic tactics," is seeking to divorce Japan from its alignment with the West was voiced by one conferee. "If China's resources and Japan's industrial complex were joined, they could put together a tremendous military machine," he cautioned. "They would constitute such a threat all of Asia would fall behind the bamboo curtain." Other proposals advanced by participants were for an increase in United States imports from Japan, an American foreign policy based on the "counter-radical revolutionary appeal that all men are free and equal" and steps to give the United Nations a monopoly on use of force. United States policy toward Communist and. Nationalist China was discussed at panel sessions today.

George E. Taylor, director of the Far Eastern and Russian Institute at the University of Washington, will address a dinner meeting tonight at the Congress Hotel. The conference, which has drawn participants from 10 Midwestern states, will conclude tomorrow afternoon after a plenary session at which recommendations on Far Eastern policy are expected to be adopted.

Many times the appreciative din from the audience drowned out Presley.

The performer, who had secluded himself in a Hotel Chase room all day under an assumed name, had been spirited by police into the auditorium by an obscure alley entrance to avoid admirers standing guard at the stage door. He haof been escorted to the hall in time to avoid the Market street traffic snarl caused by his scheduled appearance. Shortly before the 8 p.m. curtain time, castbound machines were inching along from a point west of Union Station. The "rock and roll" singer did not fo on stage until alter the show's mid-point intermission.

Entertainers accompany ing him on a nine-performance tour did their turns while Presley talked to reporters and radio disc jockeys in Assembly Hall 2. What was scheduled as a press conference turned out to be dominated by auto graph-seeking teen-agers who had Infiltrated the police lines. After the Intermission, during which spectators had another chance to buy Elvis Presley souvenirs, the 22-year-old performed bounded onto the stage and the uproar began. He glittered and grimaced. Khine-stones embedded even in the laces of his gold-colored, raiscd- hcel shoes added to the dazzling sight.

Girls screamed and hundreds of flash bulbs were discharged, making the hall look as if it were under an artillery barrage. Presley clung to the microphone standard and staggered about in a distinctive, distraught manner, waiting for the noise to subside a bit. Outnumbered and Oulshrirkrd. When he mouthed the opening words of his first song, the uproar began again. Girls shrieked.

Elvis shrieked, but he was outnumbered. His contortions were ecstatically received. His most appreciated medium of expression seemed to be burlesque's traditional hip movements. Musicians from a jazz concert playing to a small audience in the auditorium's adjoining opera house sneaked into the wings to watch Presley perform, "Man, how much do you suppose those yard goods cost him?" one of them speculated. Elvis staggered and sang more songs evoking the same audience reaction, each presentation becoming a repetition of the first.

The protested proxy declaration described plans of the utility for soliciting proxy votes to re-elect its present board of directors at the annual meeting April 20. Dyer and his daughter, a student at Bryn Mawr College, also applied for an order which would stay execution of the SEC order and postpone the April 20 meeting. The petition for review alleged that the SEC order was entered precipitously in advance of release of any findings and an opinion and contrary to interest of the Dyers and the public interest. Dyer has attempted to oust the present management of Union Electric since it became known last year the utility paid a $35,000 lobbying fee for a bill it wanted passed by the Illinois Legis lature.
