The President Of Bolivia, Gen.
Enrique Penaranda, will take
back pleasant memories of a mo-
mentous occasion when he re-
turns to his native land. Ger
tainly the reception given for
him yesterday by the Ambassador
and Sonora de Guachalla was
one to long remember.
The beautiful Pan-American
Building in which Bolivia had its
share in erecting was the scene
OF this outstanding event on
the social program of the dis
tinguish visitor.
Although the Ambassador and
Sonora de Guachalla had stressed
simplicity in the refreshments
served, the magnif1cence of the
setting made the event colorful
and brilliant beyond measure.
The guest list was equally as
imposing. Members of the cabi-
net. other top officials, including
members of Congress and high
ranking officers of the Armed

Tour Saturday to Benefit Home

One Of the outstanding insti-
tutions of Washington which
draws a warmhearted response
to its annual appeal for financial
aid is the Washington Home for
Incurables.
Through the faith and inde-
fatigability of a small group Of
women who some years ago
founded the home and strove for
its maintenance, it Is now one of
Washington's finest and best
equipped institutions, and one of
which it is justly proud.
Some of its patients for whose
ills medical science has found no
cure pay their own expenses, and
others who enter the home are
able. to pay a portion of the
costs, but many others who re-
ceive the same care from the
nurses and doctors as we'll as
from volunteer workers must be
cared for by the funds received
from Washington's generous
public.
Each year the Board of Gov
ernors of the Home for Incur
ables sponsors a, tour of stately
residences for the benefit of the
home, and this year the tour will
be conducted this Saturday and
will include embassies, legations
and private homes in the neigh
borhood of Sheridan and Kalo-

material and money available to the
petroleum industry If serious ma

committee representing 30 inde-

agreed yesterday.
After day-long discussion, COM

the following recommendations to
Petroleum Administrator Ickes, the
Once of Price Administration and
congressional committees:
Deferment from Army service of
essential research, geological and
geophysical workers must be made.
Increased amounts of steel. in
proportion with the rest of the war
effort, must be made available to
facilitate exploratory work on new
oil pools.
The basic price OF crude oil must
be increased to meet rising costs
and increased exploratory risks in
order that independent operators
may, have the money necessary to
carry out the hunt for new petroleum
sources.

Despite reported reluctance in
high quarters to stir up Senate de-

collaboration, the administration 8
hand appeared today to have been
| forced by those who seek an early
declaration of congressional inten-
tions.
Apparently convinced that the is
sue must be settled without regard
to timing, administration leaders
were understood already to be at
work on tentative drafts of pro-
posal which they are expected to Of
fer as a substitute for half dozen
pending resolutions.
Several of the resolutions offer
blueprints for immediate and after
war collective action by the United
Nations, but the administration
lieutenants are expected to favor
something extremely simple in form
and vague in commitments.
The Senate Foreign Relations
Committee acted yesterday to assure
would be prompt. thorough and
earnest" consideration of the post
war proposals.
Subcommittee Appointed.
The committee directed Senator
Connally to appoint an eight-mem-
ber subcommittee, which he will
head, to study and report on the
series of resolutions. These include
the Ball Burton Hill Hatch proposal
urging that the United States take
the initiative in organizing the
United Nations for action designed
ultimately to preserve peace through
joint military force. ,....-... -,
Senator Connally told reporters
later that the committee and sub
committee purpose to give prompt,
thorough and earnest consideration
to the whole matter and bring its

the attention of the full committee
at the earliest possible date"
The chairman said he would name
the subcommittee shortly and 1t
would decide whether to hold public
hearings. Senator Connally indi-
Gated he favored closed sessions, a
view apparently shared by Senator
Vandenberg, Republican, OF Mich

Senator Ball, who has urged
open hearings, said sponsors ought
to have the benefit of public rec

One discussed compromise draft
