leans back to cast an approving, and slightly amused,
look at his wife on the beach at Ormando Beach, Fla.,
as she models bathing suit he gave her on July 4, 1920,
one week after they were married. Mrs. Hynds wore
suit only once, July 4, 1920. Now, thanks to that 36-
year-old suit, Mrs. Hynds is the most whistled at girl
seen hereabouts in many a Florida moon. The Hynds

British Exports Rise
LONDON (UP)— British exports
soared to a new record level last
month and the trade gap nar-
rowed to the lowest figure in two
and one-half years, according to
government statistics.
A driver reaction test held by
the Lone Star Gas Co. on Williams
avenue this morning was comple-
ted at noon today, and results
compared favorably with statistics
released by the safety division of
the State Highway Department,
gas company mlanager Earl Heath
said.
Each gas company driver was
given a detonation test. A metal
cap was placed on the tire of a
truck and when the truck reached
a, speed of 30 miles per hour the
cap fired. This was a signal for
the driver to step on the brake
enabling officials to check his re-
actions. It was determined how
long it took each driver to get his
foot on the brakes after the cap
fired, and how far the truck skid-
ded before it stopped.
The test was conducted by the
safety department of the Lone Star
Gas Co. of Dallas.

Edgar ruled that Langston is
eligible to collect the difference
between the $8,250 salary under
the 1955-56 school year contract he
had at Irving and the $4,680 he
received in another position.
Langston had appealed his dis-
missal by the Irving board as of
May 30, 1955. Langston succeeded
Dr. John L. Beard as acting su-
perintendent in February, 1954.
Beard’s ouster by the Irving
school board touched off a walk-
out of teachers, which led to the
firing of more than 100 employes.
Beard was later rehired and
Langston dismissed by a new
school board.
Beard resigned last week after
a pro-Beard slate was defeated in
another school board election.

House conference Tuesday with
Senate leaders.
The Republicans and Democrat-
ic leaders said that “No commit-
ments were given and none were
asked.”
George said he felt the House
cut was “too deep.” He told re-
porters he did not know what the
committee will do but said he felt
a $500 million restoration of mili-
tary aid funds might have a fair
chance of being approved by the
Senate.
The 10 Republican senators
said: “Upon the United States,
and especially its President, falls
the task of leading a world seek-
ing peace. The effort cannot be
made without cost.
“Let us not now throw away the
best weapons we have against
Communism.”
Besides Case, the appeal was
signed by Sens. Gordon Allott
(Colo), George H. Bender (Ohio),
Prescott Bush (Conn), James H.
(Vt), Irving M. Ives (NY), Thom-
as H. Kuchel (Calif), Frederick G.
Payne (Maine) and William A
Purtell (Conn).
A 34-year-old Memorial
Hospital nurse was in coun-
ty jail today after her ar-
rest by police on North
Main street Tuesday night.
Police said the woman was
heavily under the influence
of narcotics when arrested.
Police Chief Carroll Cooke said
today the woman might be turned
over to Dallas officers, who hold
a felony warrant for her arrest
fcr violation of the hot check law.
No Narcotics Found
No narcotics were found in the
woman's automobile but hypo syr-
inges and a number of empty drug
bottles were found.
The woman caused a disturban-
ce at police station Tuesday night
by banging on the doors of the
I jail cell. Chief Cooke said she
brought blood from her wrist with
a safety pin while locked in her
cell. The Chief said at first she
would not tell him, with what she
was cutting her wrist and would
not let him see the pin until he
threatened to come in and get it.
The blood was stopped and the
woman was taken to the front of
the jail so police could keep a
closer watch on her. She jumped
from her chair, grabbed a cold
drink bottle from its rack and
rushed into the rest room. Police-
men, believing she meant to break
the bottle to use as a weapon,
pulled the door open. The woman
took a swing with the bottle at a
policeman. He dodged and she
missed, striking, a door facing and
knocking the bottle from her hand.
Chief Cooke said the woman con-
tinued to give trouble and put up
a scrap when she was transferred
to county jail. Cooke said she gave
him more trouble when he put her
in the patrol car for the trip.
Bill Hudgins, Memorial hospital
administrator, said the woman
was a registered nurse and had
only worked at the hospital five
days. He said she gave references
which were checked. He said she
was also checked through the Dal-
las nurses registery. The registery
gave her a good reference.
Hudgins said the woman seemed
very efficient at first. He said hos-
pital officials knew nothing about
her background other than what
she had on her application and
the references she gave.
Work Record Checked
Chief Cooke said he believed
the woman originally came from
Little Rock, Ark., but she had
worked at Dallas, Grand Prairie
and Fort Worth recently.

Woman on‘Trial
For Station Job
HOUSTON (UP)— Testimony
was to continue today in the trial
of Mrs. Mildred Abrams, 30, on
armed robbery charges.
A jury of nine men and three
women, qualified on the death
penalty, was completed late Tues-
day. Mrs. Abrams is charged as
a second offender, with life im-
prisonment or death the only pos-
sible penalties under the law.
Mrs. Abrams was charged with
her husband, Charles Abrams, 39,
with robbing C. W. Potthoff, a fill-
ing station operator, of $100 last
Feb. 10. Potthoff said Mrs.
Abrams, wearing a man’s cloth-

shall be changed.
Article 1, Sec. 4(b) now requires
the city to furnish water and se-
wer service to an annexed terri-
tory within two years or the terri-

Say Aid Slash
False Economy
WASHINGTON (UP)— Ten Re-
publican senators warned today
that House cuts in President Ei-
senhower’s foreign aid program
will weaken U.S. allies and boost
defense spending.
They called the cuts false econ-
omy.
The senators headed by Clifford
statement as the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee met behind
closed doors to begin work on the
foreign aid bill. Chairman Walter
F. George (D-Ga) said the com-
mittee hoped to vote out a bill
by the end of the week.
The GOP senators said the
slashing of $1.1 billion by the
House from the President’s $4.9
billion program “does not mean
that money will be saved.”
“Not greater strength but weak-
ened allies and lessened defenses,
not tax cuts but increased defense
expenditures will be the eventual
result of drastic impairment of
the mutual security program,” the
senators said.
Mr. Eisenhower’s top aides re-
layed an all-out plea for his for-
eign aid program at a White

CHICAGO (UP)— An area-wide
power failure singled out a help-
less polio patient for death Tues-
day. The chest respirator which
kept him breathing went dead and
he died with it.
Firemen and neighbors worked
frantically to save Marcel Bucher,
a 33-year old ex-professional wres-
tler. But he was pronounced dead
less than an hour after the power
went off.
Bucher, a bulbar polio victim
paralyzed from the neck down
since 1954, was only one of 125,000
Chicago and suburban residents
whose electricity was cut off when
a 207,000-kilowatt generator broke
down.
For most of the 125,000, the pow-
er breakdown meant they had to
endure record-breaking heat with-
out fans or air conditioners. For
Bucher it meant death.
Bucher’s wife, Jeanne, 35, said
afterwards “The power went off
twice before, but he never seemed
to suffer from it.”
This time, she sent her 7-year
old daughter Alice hurring to an
attendant at a nearby gas station.
The girl asked that he come to
Bucher’s cleaning shop and con-
“If you take that one, there’s
no charge. The rental fee is

pirator.
William Hulska. 25, had the res-
pirator on battery power within
minutes. But the battery did not
operate a suction device which
kept Bucher’s mouth free of
mucus.
The frantic wife tried to call the
Commonwealth Edison Co. for
help. But the line was busy. Com,-
dent Eisenhower will confer in his
hospital suite Thursday morning
with visiting German Chancellor
Konrad Adenauer, it was an-
nounced today.
Adenauer will be the first visi-
tor the President has had outside
of his family and White House
staff aides since his emergency
operation last Saturday.
White House Press Secretary
James C. Hagerty said Mr. Eisen-
hower will receive the 80-year-old
German leader for a “courtesy
visit” at 8 a.m. cst at. Walter
Reon Army hospital. Adenauer
will be accompanied by Secretary
of State John Foster Dulles.
Hagerty said he did not know
what would be discussed .at the
meeting or how long it might
last. He said the President’s doc-
tors said it was “perfectly all
right” for him to conduct such a
conference at this stage of his re-
covery.
Spirits Are Good
Mr. Eisenhowers physicians
had reported earlier today that be
spent a “fairly comfortable night”
and was in “good spirits this
morning.”
Hagerty said the bulletin re-
ferred to a “fairly comfortable
night” because Mr. Eisenhower
“didn’t sleep through.”
Hagerty displayed irritation
when reporters asked about a re-
port that the President is “un-
happy” about a drainage tube
that runs through his nose, and
that he had used “strong lan-
guage” to express his views of
the tube.
“I’ve told you 16,000 times it
(the tube) isn’t comfortable,”
Hagertv renlied. “Now what else
can I say?”
The President underwent sur-
gery early Saturday to by-pass an
obstruction in his small intestine.
The surgey was pronounced suc-
cessful and his condition has been
reported as “excellent.”
He Steps Up Schedule
Announcement of the Adenauer
visit coincided with a stepped-up
Presidential work schedule this
morning.
Mr. Eisenhower conferred with
White House aides, signed eight
bills and other official papers and
dictated to his personal secretary
for 30 minutes in his hospital
room. All told, Hagerty said, the
President signed his name 27
times and approved six telegrams.
Hagerty said the President
seemed to be in good health and
spirits.
“He looked and sounded quite
chipper,” he added.
In their 6 a.m. cst bulletin, Mr.
Eisenhower’s physicians said:
“The President had a fairly
comfortable night. He was in
good spirits this morning.
“His temperature is 99; his
pulse is 80; his blood pressure is
118 over 80; and his respiration
is 20-—all of which are normal re-
actions at this state.
He is still on intraveneous feed-
ing. A decompressing drainage)
tube is still being used.”
Mr. Eisenhower’s surgeons had
indicated after his operation that
he might be given some liquids
by mouth today, the fourth day

More of Same
The weatherman predicted
more of the same today.
Thousands of heat sufferers
crammed the beaches. Cases of
drowning and heat prostration
jumped. And many areas report-
ed critical water shortages.
The beat was mixed with
storms in the South. The U.S.
Weather Bureau said a weak cir-
culation in the central Gulf of
Mexico was kicking up squalls,
but there were no signs that the
season’s first tropical hurricane
was brewing.
In Chicago, a heavily-burdened
power generator went dead at the
height of the- heat. The failure
knocked out air conditioners and
fans for 125,000 persons in a sub-
urban area and killed a helpless
polio victim when the chest res-
pirator which kept him breathing
went dead.
Water Shortages
The Chicago suburbs of Dolton,
South Holland and Skokie report-
ed water shortages. Sprinkling re-
strictions were imposed in many
areas and at Dolton, where resi-
water pressure on the second
floor, a spat broke out with Chi-
cago officials over whether the
big city was hogging too much
water.
More water shortages were re-
ported at Shenandoah, Iowa, where
residents were asked to conserve
their supplies and in the Milwau-
kee suburb of Riverdale.
Thousands of persons, jammed
Michigan’s many beaches and six
of them drowned. One was a man
who ate six hotdogs, downed three
beers, and then took a dip to
cool off in the Detroit River.
BRADY, Tex. (UP)— The hunt
for the “hired killer” who plant-
ed a bomb in the car of a vet-
erans land scandal witness en-
tered its fifth day today and in-
vestigators hinted they were mak-
ing headway.
District Attorney Bill Allcorn
and Ranger Capt. Gully Cowsert
said they had several good leads
and that the investigation was
“getting along nicely since the
platoon of reporters left.”
Cowsert said people who might
know something about the bomb-
ing, of lawyer Sam McCollum Ill’s
station wagon and who feared get-
ting their names in the paper had
been reluctant to come forward.
McCollum was wounded by a
dynamite or nitroglycerin bomb
wired to the ignition of his car.
He suffered deep chest and face
cuts and a broken leg. He is re-
ported improving. Faulty placing
of the bomb probably saved his
life..
Was State Witness
McCollum was one of the wit-
nesses whose testimony helped
send former Land Commissioner
Bascom Giles to prison in the
veterans land scandals. He was
scheduled to testify in other cases.
Allcorn and Cowsert said they
had run down and cleared several
leads, including an accomplice
suspect at Lake Charles, La. They
wouldn’t elaborate on that.
The investigators also noted
that B. R. Sheffield, Brady land
promoter who offered to take a
lie detector test to clear himself
in the bombing, hasn’t showed up
to take the test yet.
“The test is still available if he
wants it, but we don’t care if he
