$4,000 Drive Pushed
By Bethesda Club

A campaign is being conducted
among members of the Bethesda
Country Club to raise $4,000 by
early September to pay off a third

money will be in hand in time to
make the transaction.
Mr.. OieZ said holders of a S115.-
900 trust, many of whom live in
other cities, offered to dispose of
their interests for $4,000 provided

from July 10.
Club members are being asked
to buy third trust certificates, the
president said: He added that
the membership now totals about
$40 and the response to the finan-
cial appeal has been good.
The i58-acre club property at
$500 Bradley boulevard once be-
longed to the Woman's National
Club and formerly was used as an
aviation club headquarters. 1t
became the Bethesda Country
Club in 1947. Among its facilities

Textile Union Presses
For Federal Contracts
BY the Associoied Press

NEW YORK. Aug. 1.-The CIO
Textile Workers Union of America
says the industry needs Govern
ment contracts to overcome un-
employment in textile mills.
Emil Rieve, union president
says almost every branch of the
textile industry has been affected
by a drop in production.
Mr.. Rieve made his statement
yesterday at the same time the
union announced it had sent a
telegram to President Truman
urging quick action on Govern
ment textile purchases.
The union statement contrasted
with an almost simultaneous an
|nouncement from a management
spokesman, who said union off,
cials were threatening a strike of
1000 in the New York and Phil
adelphia areas in a contract dis
pute.
In his telegram, Mr.. Rieve said
prompt Government action would
enable the Government to make
purchases at costs lower than they
might be later.

Catholic Radio Station
In Japan 10 Battle Reds
BY The Assoeiated Press

LOS ANGELES, Aug. |. A
Catholic religious order yesterday
announced that a radio station
1T is establishing in Tokyo will
soon begin a broadcasting battle
against Communism, in Japan.
The Society of st. Paul said its
station will be the first privately
owned commercial broadcast
transmitter in Japan. The an
nouncement said it will soon be-
gin a 17-hour daily broadcast
schedule lin an theological race
with Communism for the minds
of the japanese people"
The Rev. John Chiesa, a mis-
sionary in Japan who is manager
of the station, said negotiations
have been completed in this coun-
try with the international divi-
sion of RCA for equipment and
arrangements for shipping are
now being made.
Japan today is on the thresh-
hold OF a new culture, almost a
new civilization, we might say
said Father Chiesa in a statement.
1T will be either Christian or
Communist, depending on who
gets there first. eth we or the
Communists. And you can take
my word for it. the comrades are
far from shirking their jobs. It's
foolish to think, even for a mo-
ment, that the Red danger has
passed. The japanese are looking
for something. They will surely
find their answer in Christianity
If only some one will tell them be-
fore it's too late"

Special Chewing Gum Reduces
Tooth Decay, Researchers Say

The rate of tooth decay in the
group chewing the chemically
treated gum was rs per cent lower
than that for the second gum
chewing group and 80 per cent
lower than that for the group that
followed no gum routine.
Sixty per cent of those persons
in the first group suffered no
tooth decay compared with only
seven per cent in the second
group and two per cent in the
third group.
The investigators said recent
evidence indicates that the great
est degree of decay activity occurs
in the 80 minutes period immedi-
ately after a meal containing
sugars, and that use of fura-
|droxyl during that period signifi-
Icantly reduced decay.
Their report was carried in the
Journal of the American Dental
Association.

Pinba|I Box Charges
Hurled al Meeting Of
Arlington Democrats

A candidate for Common
wealth's attorney in Arlington has
charged that the incumbent, Den
man T. Rucker. has invited pin
ball machines into the county.
The statement was made by
William j. Hassan at a meeting
of the Women's Division of the
Arlington Democratic Party in
Mount Olivet Methodist Church
yesterday.
I have challenged my opponent
but he has yet failed to explain
why he has invited pinball ma
chimes into the county," Mr.. Has
san said.
Mr.. Rucker, who spoke earlier,
had stated that he had met a
number of rugged challenges"
during his four-year term. He said
he was challenged by the former
board chaiEman"-apparently his
reference was to Daniel A. Dugan
over the appointment of the
police chief by the County Board,
but he said he insisted that this
function remain with the county
manager.
Il was challenged by Lano i.
who was all too friendly with the
former chairman of the County
Board"
His reference was to Sam Lano,
pinball and slot machine distrib-
utor, and Mr.. Dugan. He said
he had exposed the fact that
Joseph Leib, a member of police
investigating committee, had a po-
lice record.
Il will drive all the Leibs and
Lanos out of the county when
ever they come in" Mr.. Rucker
said.
Mr.. Hassan outlined a four
point program, if elected. He
promised more efficient operation;
utilization of Federal, State and
college facilities in the area for
legal aid; furnishing an accused
the right to prove his innocence
through use of lie detector, drunk
o-meter and other scientific de-
vices, and to obtain a qualified
assistant.
The candidates seek nomination
in the Democratic primary Tues

made public letter to Michael
v. Disable. director of price sta
bilization, saying the newsprint
producers "are putting on the
squeeze play" and asking:
Are you going to let them gel

The Senator called attention to
a $10-a-ton price increase an

ers of Crown Zellerbach Co., sent

This increase, which was made
effective today, boosted the price

see what could be done about
blocking a newsprint increase by
Canadian producers.
Because of those increases. Sem
ator johnson said, several i'm
portant newspapers quit and many
others have had to curtail their
services"
He told Mr.. Disable that the
price officials authority with re-
spect to Canadian producers was
limited, and that If Canadian
governmental authorities would
not cooperate with our price con-
troll officials there was little you
could do about it,"
Senator johnson said that the
United States newsprint producers
"are contemptuous about" the in
crease and were quoted as saying:
I'VE will not take the matter up
with the Office of Price Admins
tration."
