Maid Testifies Wife W She Killed Colonel
By William C. Barnard.
TOKYO. Jan. 5.—(ft—A Japanese maid testified today that Dorothy Krueer Smith brandished a kitchen knife over ber dying husband and cried:
“I’m so glad I did it:”
Mrs. Smith, daughter of retired Gen. Walter Krueger of World War II fame, is being tried by a U. S. Army court martial on a charge of murdering Col. Aubrey Smith in their Tokyo home the night of Oct. 3.
The maid, Shigeko Tani, 28, testified she wrested a foot-long hunting knife from Mrs Smith and hid in a downstairs living room. She said Smith was stabbed with the hunting knife.
Miss Tani, speaking in Japanese,! told the nine-member American! court:
She ran back to the Smiths* bedroom and found Mrs. Smith holding a small kitchen knife over the bleeding colonel in his bed.
Breaks Down In Court.
Mrs. Smith had the knife in her right hand and the colonel was holding Mrs. Smith’s right wrist.
Mrs. Smith wept frequently at today’s opening session. Twice she broke down in wracking sobs. She is 40 and the mother of two.
Miss Tani, a cool and composed witness, said Smith, 45-year-old chief of the plans and operations division of the logistics section of U. S. Far East headquarters, told her he had been stabbed by his wife.
Mrs. Smith is charged with premeditated murder, for which the maximum penalty is death and the alternate penalty is life imprisonment. Lt. Col. W. H. H. Jones, attorney for the prosecution, declined comment when asked whether the death penalty would be asked.
Before the trial, Mrs. Smith was under observation in an Army hospital. The defense has indicated it would challenge an Army board’s finding that Mrs. Smith was able to distinguish right from wrong.

Priest Thwarts Robbery By
Parish Member
CHICAGO, Jan 5.—«*—A Roman Catholic priest subdued a knife-wielding youth who tried to rob the Sunday church collections, and found that the hoodlum was a member of his parish.
The Rev. Umile Broccolo, pastor of Holy Rosary Church, and an usher were walking through the church basement to the office with $800 when a masked assailant attacked them Sunday. He slashed them with a butcher knife.

The ancient parrot rested comfortably in its Richmond. Ind., home, but his master stayed jailed because he couldn’t furnish bond on a charge of having physical control of an auto while intoxicated.
Both Bills were arrested here Saturday by police, but the bird’s mistress, Mrs. Bradley, rescued her pet Sunday night from the Humane Society’s animal shelter where police took the bird.
The only comment on the situation was the bird’s. It yelled, “Hi Margaret, ever been here before?” when Mrs. Bradley showed up to claim it.

Police said the usher, James Debiase, was carrying the money, proceeds from the days’ collections, when Collets sprang into the room and shouted, ‘‘I want that money.”
When the pastor leaped at the youth, police said, Colletti wildly slashed at the two with a butcher knife. Broccolo suffered a cut wrist and Debiase a cut thumb. Parishioners called police.

Knowland said statehood for Alaska was not discussed at today’s session.
He said such things as the length of time Hawaii has been a territory, and the size of its population, give it priority over Alaska.

Senate Expects Early Test On Filibusters
WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-J.*-Sen. Ellender (D.-La.) predicted todiy t projected move to revise Senate rules so as to make it easier to halt filibusters “will be beaten by better than a 2-to-l margin.”
The test may come tomorrow or the next day. The Senate, after organizing under republican control Saturday, recessed until tomorrow.
Sen. Taft (R.-Ohio), new G.O P. leader, apparently was in position I to cut off debate and obtain a quick test at any time he wishes. Taft Saturday persuaded opposing sides to delay until Tuesday the start of their dispute over the issue, the ancient Senate custom of unlimited debate.
In the past, southern democrats have used this as a weapon—called the filibuster—to talk civil rights measures to death.
The old rule covering the point says that Senate debate may not be limited unless 64 of the 96 mem-1 hers vote to do so. Backers of civil (rights legislation contend it is virtually impossible to get the votes of 64 senators to limit debate.
They propose a rules change which would allow 49 senators to shut off debate on any measure : after it had continued for 14 days. .Sen. Anderson (D.-N. M.)t acting J for the group, made the initial move Saturday, proposing that the Senate consider adoption of rules
