The Government of the United
States, he said, gives great
weight not only to the recommend
ations which have met with the
unanimous approval of the Special
Committee, but. also to those
which have been approved by the
majority of that committee"
Marshall did not refer to the min
GRITTY report proposing federaliza-
ton.
Marshall gave assurance that
the United States 'intendS to do
everything within its power at
this session of the General Assem-
bly, to assist in finding a solution
for the difficult problem which
has stirred up such violent pas
siOns and which is now resulting
in the shedding of blood and in
great mental and moral anguish"
Declaring that any solution Of
fered by the Assembly Cannot
be ideally satisfactory to either of
the two great peoples primarily
concerned" he emphasized that
the Assembly's final decision
must properly await detailed con-
sideration of the report"
Praises UNSCOP Report;
Urges Restraint
Well informed official sources
clarified the Marshall statement
to mean that the United States
neither supports nor rejects the
UNSCOP recommendations at the
present time. So far as the min
ority proposals are concerned, the
United States, in view of it's adj
herence to democratic processes,
attaches greater weight to the
majority's recommendations. Be
yond this, it was indicated, the
United States will not go at this
stage.
The Secretary highly praised
.UNSCOP for it's contribution to a
solution of the Palestine problem.
although the members of this
committee were not able to agree
unanimously upon number of
important issues, including that
of partition" Marshall said, they
have been able to find the basis
for agreement on eleven recon-
mendations to this Assembly.
Their achievement in reaching
unanimity on so many points rep
resents definite progress" He
called for courage, resolution and
restraint in reaching solution.

Research Under
ToPut Home" Taste
In Bakery Made Pies

LINCOLN, Neb. up : You soon
may be able to tackle a wedge Of
apple pie at the local hash house
and 'Mmm" without kidding
yourself.
The University of Nebraska
agricultural extension service re-
ported research in progress to
give bakery pies that old-fashion-
ed doWn-on-the-farm flavor.
The reason some commercial
apple pies may taste like damp
cardboard is that the apples
themselves are not as fu~lly-flavor-
ed as the ones grandmother used,
the extensionists said.
They are commercial varieties
which hold their shape in cooking
and make a better appearing pie,
but are not as flavorful as the
softer, juicier apples which made
good among the threshing set.
But researchers have found that
the softer, fine-flavored apples
can be dipped, impregnated OF
cooked in a weak solution OF cal
cium chloride and made firm.
Result: A pretty pie and one
thoroughly eatable, according to
the extensionists.

sion of the Greenmount Cemetery
proprietors forbidding Mrs. A. S.

described as 18 inches high and AZ
inches long and works of art
Assuming for purposes of dis
cuSsion that they are objects of art
of great charm and worth, their ad-
mission might open the way for the
erection of all kinds of animal re-
productions, good or bad, valuable
or worthless, beautiful or hideous, -
the court said.
The presence of two small dogs,

Virginia Wafer Board
To Weigh Biological
Survey Of Shenandoah
BY the Associated Press

RICHMOND, Va, Dec. 12.-The
State Water Control Board will con-
sider a proposal at a meeting
Wednesday and Thursday for a
comprehensive biological survey OF
the Shenandoah River, the boards
agenda disclosed today.
Spokesmen for the three largest
industries on the Shenandoah have
offered to finance the study in full
while leaving it up to the board to
supervise the investigation, draw
conclusions and publish findings
The work would be done by DR.
Charles E. Rem, aquatic biologist
who is director of sanitation lab
oratories for Johns Hopkins Univer-
s1ty and formerly was chief of the
Marine Biological Laboratory In
Massachusetts.
An offer to finance the study was
made by the Du Pont Co., operator
of a cellulose acetate rayon plant at
Waynesboro; Merck & Co., makers
OF streptomycin, biologicals and vi
tamln concentrates at a plant at
Elkton, and American Viscose Corp
operators of viscose rayon mill at
Front Royal.
A board spokesman said the pro.
posed study would require at least
three years and possibly four tt
complete. The first years cost is
estimated at $4,000. 1t would be
the first study of its kind ever at
tempted on Virginia river ano
would diagnose the Shenandoah's
ills from a point above Waynesborc
to the West Virginia line.
The survey would have three ma
jor points in mind-to determine
the specific damage to aquatic life
from trade wastes and sewage. to
determine the cause of any damage
to aquatic life and to determine
what additional corrective meas
ures should be undertaken to re-
store the river.
Industries along the Shenandoah
would be expected to keep on cutting
down the strength and volume of
their pollution regardless of the
survey.
An afternoon session Wednesday
will study problems created in
Four Mile Run by sewage from
Arlington and Alexandria.

Country Club Board
To Meet on Rezoninq
OF Chevy Chase Tract

The Board of Governors of the
Columbia Country Club will hold a
special meeting at pm. tomorrow
to discuss the Chevy Chase Land
house zoning of a 30-acre tract on
both sides of the Baltimore & Ohio
Railroad about a half mile north of
East-West highway.
The club is interested in the pro-
posal because its property at Con-
necticut avenue and East-West
highway, Chevy Chase, is opposite
the land company's 130 acres of
which the proposed apartment site
is part.
The petition also has resulted in
the scheduling of public hearing by
the board of managers of Chevy
Chase Village, Inc, at 8 pm. Mon
day at the Chevy Chase Library.
Miller Refuses to Comment.
The community comprises Sec
tions /, 2 and "a of Chevy Chase ex-
tending from Chevy Chase Circle
north to Bradley lane on Connecti-
cut avenue and west to Wisconsin
avenue.
s. William Miller. president of the
Columbia Country Club, refused to
express any opinion on the rezoning
petition or on the land company's
plan to set aside, for possible COM
mercial development a portion of its
property fronting Connecticut ave-
nue. Immediately north of the Chevy
Chase firehouse.
Mr.. Miller added that he did not
know whether the board of gov
ernors would take any action at its
meeting nor did he know whether
it would send representatives to
the zoning hearing before the Mont
gomery County Commissioners at
2:O5 pm. Tuesday in the Bethesda
County Building.
Villagers Drew Up Petition.
He said the meeting was called
after the zoning proposal was
brought to his attention recently by
club members who live in the area.
Arthur w. Defenderfer, chairman
of the Chevy Chase Village board
of managers, said the meeting of his
group was called in response to
petition by approximately 10 resi-
dents of the area
The board was not inclined to take
any action on the zoning petition be-
cause we did not believe it directly
affected our area" Mr.. Defenderfer
declared. "Of course, we're all in
clined to oppose anything that would
encroach on the residential char
acter of Chevy Chase"
He said he would prefer not to
take a position on the matter until
after the meeting. He added there
are approximately 1000 residents
of the community.
