A LEXANDR1AS famed Lafayette
IA House, now the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Nathan N. Wallack, has received
the award of merit" OF the Alexan-
dria Association in recognition of Its
restoration, which most faithfully
and well reflects the characteristic
traditional architectural style of Alex
andria."
The three-story brick mansion, at
301 South St. Asaph street, was re-
stored by the WallackS between Octo-
Der 6, l947, and December 81. l949,
and has been judged by the architec-
tural committee Of the Alexandria
Association to be the outstanding resi-
Dental restoration of that period.
The house was built early in the
10th century, and in 1924, at the time
of Lafayette's visit, was known as
''the most elegant house" in the city.
When Lafayette reached Alexandria,
the mansions owner, Mrs. Thomas
Lawrason, put it at his disposal. When
the general concluded his visit, he re-
ferred to his entertainment in Alex
andria as "the most pleasing hours of
my life" The City Council presented
Mrs. LawraSon with silver cup IN
appreciation of her hospitality
In later years, however, the house
suffered from neglect and the raw
ages of time, and when the Wallacks
purchased it in l947, it was only a
relic of its former beauty. A century's
accumulation of dirt in the basement
had solidified to such an extent, Mr..
Wallack says. that it could be re-
moved only by sandblasting. The dirt

Senate Is Not Likely
To Gain Ground as
House Takes Vacation
By J. A. O'Leory

The Senate. already far behind
in its work. is not likely to gain
much ground this week even with
House members taking q To-day
vacation.
Chairman George of the Sen
ate Finance Committee Is anxious
to start floor debate on the new
Social Security bill. which the
House passed a year ago, but
Senate leaders have given two
smaller measures the right of way
this week.
These are the conference agree
ment on the "basing point" bill
and a new 50 billion fund author
ization for the Commodity Credit
Corp, which supports farm prices.
Budget Bill Pending.
The "basing point" measure is
intended to make it legal for in
dustries to absorb freight rates to
meet competition without running
afoul of the antitrust laws.
Backed up behind these two
measures and the social security
bill are the $29 billion omnibus
budget bill for all Government
departments, extension of rent
control and renewal of the stand
by Selective Service Act.
The House. which has only rent
control and tax revision left on its
must" list, decided to let its
members go home this week to
combine observance of Memorial
Day with some fence repairing
for the fall elections.
FEPC Hopes Fade.
In addition to the bills already
mentioned, Senate leaders still
have the problem of how to dis
pose Of the Fair Employment
Practices bill. Although hope of
passing that measure this year
faded when its hackers failed to
invoke the anti-f1libustering rule
last week. administration floor
managers still must do something
about the motion of Majority
Leader Lucas to take up the civil
rights measure.
Senator Lucas may try to get
cloture again before the session
ends. If that fails. the FEPC mo-
tion will be sidetracked for other
pending business.
In any event. the Senate is in
for two months of gruelling work
If Congress is to complete by
August / the bills that have been
scheduled for action this year.

10000 Pilgrims See Rites
Canonizing French Queen
BY the Assoeiated Press

VATICAN CITY. May ga
French queen who was deprived
OF her earthly throne by king
husband who hated her was
crowned a saint yesterday inSS
Peters Basilica.
Pope Plus XII solemnly raised
to sainthood gentle Jeanne de
Valois, abused wife of King Louis
XII, who met the bitterest humil-
iations with good deeds.
Forty thousand Holy Year pill
grims, including $4,000 from
France and French Africa,
thronged the Basilica for the long
rite of canonization.
The Pope fixed February 4, an
niversary of her death in 1905, as
her saints day-the day on which
she is to be venerated.
In a homily, the Pope appealed
to men ito learn that virtue, and
not earthly greatness, wealth or
temporal joys will bring them
happiness.
