King George
Laid to Rest
At Windsor
Tradition Marks
Somber Service
By The Associated Press
Britain committed the body of
King George VI to the dust of the
past yesterday with all the age-
gathered heraldry and traditions
of her enduring monarchy and the
older rites of Christian faith.
Queen Elizabeth II, center of
the hopes of a people who glory
in an earlier Elizabethan age,
sprinkled red earth on the flag-
draped coffin of her father as it
sank from sight through the stone
floor of storied St George's Cha-
pel in Windsor Castle.
SHE WAS tight lipped, but did
not weep. The Queen Mother
Elizabeth, Princess Margaret, the
younger daughter of the King,
and Princess Mary, the King's sis-
ter, also were dry-eyed but tense.
The Archbishop of Canterbury,
the Anglican primate of England,
intoned the prayer, of committal,
"Ashes to ashes, dust to dust," at
2:20 p.m. (9:20 a.m., yesterday,
Ann Arbor time) in the 26-minute
funeral service before the sover-
eigns of seven foreign nations, the
sorrowing relatives and a dis-
tinguished congregation of states-
men, soldiers and household ser-
vants.
A million and more silent and
reverent persons had watched
150 white-gaitered sailors haul
the.old grey and green funeral
gun carriage in a magnificent
procession through London's
streets from Westminister Hall,
where the body had lain in state
three days, to grimy Paddington
Station.
More thousands doffed their
hats and bowed in dutiful silence
as a second procession wound
from Windsor's railway station
through the crooked, cobbled
streets to the chalky hill sur-
mounted by Windsor's turrets.
* 0 S
THE GRANDMOTER Queen,
Mary, did not participate in the
processions or the services. Bur-
dened by her 84 years, she watch.
ed the colorful procession from a
window of her Marlborough
House. As the coffin passed, she
stood and with one sad gesture
waved a farewell to her son.
Her two surviving sons Ed-
ward, Duke of Windsor, himself
king for 11 months, and the
Duke of Gloucester, turned and
gave her a salute. So did the
16-year-old Duke of Kent, her
grandson, and young Duke of
Edinburgh, husband of the new
Queen.
Elfzabeth II and the Queen
Widow bowed from the shadows of
their carriage, immediately be-
hind the coffin bearing the glit-
tering crown of more than 3,000
jewels, the orb and the sceptre.
*~ * * .
A TWO-MINUTE silence spread
over Britain, the Commonwealth
and a colonial empire as the buri-
al service started inside St.
George's. The choir sang the
Easter hymn of triumph, "The
strife is o'er, the battle done, now
is the victor's triumph won."
Over the Atlantic, a British
(Overseas Airways plane throt-
tIed its four engines down to
minimum cruising speed and its
35 passengers stood with bowed
heads.
Prime Minister Churchill, in re-

splendent red and gold uniform of
L~ord Warden of Cinque Ports,
stumbled slightly on nearing the
altar.
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower was
there in khaki.
Among the diplomats was Sec-
retary of State Dean Acheson, who
represented President Truman.
A lonely figure was the Soviet-
Union's official representative to
the funeral, Ambassador Georgi
N. Zarubin.

Tax Refund,
McKinney Tells
Bank Connection
WASHINGTON- (P) -Chair-
man Frank McKinney of the Dem-
ocratic National Committee said
last night his bank once had a
$120,000 mortgage on a midwest
brewing company which settled
a $636,000 government tax claim
for $4,500 and later won a $35,-
000 refund,
But McKinney denied published
reports that the bank he headed,
the Fidelity Trust Co., of Indian-
apolis, helped finance the pur-
chase of the beer firm, the In-
dianapolis Brewing Company.
THE CASE came to light Thurs-
day when Sen. John J. Williams
(R-Del.) said in a speech on the
Senate floor that the Indianapolis
brewer won a handsome settle-
ment of federal tax claims soon
after former U.S. Tax Commis-
sioner Joseph D. Nunan, Jr., got
special permision to serve as at-
torney for the brewery in its tax
litigation.
In Chicago, Alvin Bardin,
president of the now defunct
brewery, told newsmen he never
had any business dealings with
Nunan.
Nunan has denied he ever repre-
sented the company and said he
has no recollection of ever seeking
waivers to represent it. A federal
statute bars certain former gov-
ernment officials from pressing
tax claims against the. United
States within two years after they
leave office, but provides for waiv-
ers in some cases.
*I * * V
BARDIN TOLD reporters he
met Nunan only once, when they
were introduced at a luncheon in
Chicago.
"I had no occasion to talk
business with him at that time,"
Bardin said. "He was in private
law-practice and I didn't need
the man's services. He was a
stranger to me."
Even as.Bardin made this state-
ment to newsmen, the Bureau of
Internal Revenue announced that
waivers were granted to Nunan to
represent nine companies in tax
cases involving government claims.
The Bureau said that among
others, waivers were given to Nu-
nan to represent Alvin Bardin and
Lawrence Bardin, both of Racine,
Wis., and the Indianapolis Brew-

MUNSAN, Korea, Saturday,
Feb. 16-(R )-Allied staff offi-
cers today rejected Communist
nomination of Russia as a neu-
tral nation to participate in be-
hind-the-lines inspection after
a Korean armistice.
An Allied staff officer told'
newsmen after the meeting on
truce supervision that it should
be "obvious" why Russia was
not acceptable.
He said the Red choices of
Poland and Czechoslovakia Vere
acceptable.
MUNSAN, Korea, Saturday, Feb:
16-(M)-Top Allied and Commun-
ist truce teams met for only 15
minutes in Panmunjom today,
then adjourned until tomorrow.
The Reds had promised to pre-
sent a revised proposal for a post-
armistice conference.
STAFF OFFICERS discussing
truce supervision and prisoner ex-
change were to meet after the
plenary session adjourned.
lMeanwhile on the fighting
front, an Allied raid by scores
of tanks into the central front
town of Kumsong killed nearly
100 Reds, wounded 88 more and
blew up 50 Red bunkers, officers
reported today.
The raid Friday into the rub-
bled no-man's land city followed
an intense artillery barrage.
Fighting has continued since
the full dress sessions recessed
Tuesday. At that time the five-
member United Nations team re-
jected a Communist proposal to
include a sweeping discussion of
Asian problems in the agenda of a.
post-war political parley.
Vice Adm. C. Turner Joy insist-
ed that only problems related to
Korea be taken up at such a con-
ference. But he reminded the Reds
that whatever the decision reach-
ed at Panmunjom, it would be
only a recommendation to the
governments concerned-and not

Wisconsin Republicans backing
Gen. Dwight Eisenhower and Gov

Presidency appeared today as a
possibility.
LOUISIANA-A district judge
ruled that the powerful Republi-
can State Central Committee -
dominated by supporters of Sena-
tor Taft - must certify returns
from a limited primary election
held Jan. 15.
The Eisenhower forces won 10
of 12 contested committee seats
in that election.
WYOMING - Sen. Robert A.
Taft told Wyoming Republicans
last night the GOP cannot pin the
November election by modifying
its principles.
BOSTON-Harold E. Stassen
said last night it is "very unlike-
ly" that either Senator Taft or
Gen. Dwight Eisenhower will win
the Republican nomination for
President because "The two cam-
paign camps tend to block and
cancel each other."

Senator Estes Kefauver, in his
second day of a grass roots cam-

Presidential nomination, said hel-

To Far ouk
LONDON- ()-Diplomatic of-
ficials disclosed privately yester-
day that Britain is c6nsidering
recognizing Egypt's King Farouk
I as regent or king of the Anglo-
Egyptian Sudan.
Such status would last only un-
til the Sudanese people get a
chance to settle their own future,
they said.
The million-square mile Sudan,
adjoining Egypt on the south, and
the Suez Canal Zone in the north
are the great issues in the now
quiet dispute between Egypt and
Britain.
THE INFORMANTS, who de-
clined to be identified by name,
emphasized that so far the plan
has not been submitted to either.
Egypt or to Sudanese leaders.
Both may be sounded out in the
next week or two if the British
decide \to gQ through with the
plan, the sources said.'
Observers were quick to point
out that the British-Egyptian
dispute over the Canal Zone re-
mains the big immediate prob-
lem dividing the two countries.
If the Sudanese should agree to
Farouk as king or regent, these
observers emphasized, Britain
would be giving away little and
yet would be pleasing most na-
tionalist-minded Egyptians.
Relations between Britain and
Egypt have apparently improved
since Farouk kicked out the ex-
treme Nationalist government of
Premier Mustapha Nahas Pasha
in the wake of the Jan. 26 riots
in Cairo and replaced it with the
government headed by Premier
Aly Maher Pasha.

WASHINGTON -' Rep. Robert
Lee Doughton, 88-year-old chair-
man of the powerful House Ways
and Means Committee, changed
his mind yesterday about running
again, and announced he will re-
tire next January.

ALTHOUGH no official request
had been received by the Regents
for consideration of the issue from
any press representatives, an in-
formal discussion of the matter
was held during the Regents din-
ner at the Union and at the eve-
ning session.
The official announcement
read: The Regents discussed in-
formally the question raised by
the MPA about open or press
meetings of the Board, because of
their natural concern in this as
in other matters affecting the Wel-
fare and best interests of the citi-
zens of the state whom they
serve. If representatives of the
press care to exchange views with
the Regents, they will be most
hospitably received.

not apply to the business part of
the next board session.' .-
