BY the Associated Press

ELSINORE. Calf, Mar. s.
They're going to take out 3-year-
old Daryl Gagnon's heart, operate
on valve that is almost closed
and there's just chance-a very
small chance-that he'll survive.
But it is a chance and Darryl's
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Edward
Gagnon, who have been steeled to
the knowledge that "Butchie," as
they call their little son, might
die any day. He is suffering from
what medical science knows as
pulmonary valvular stenosis. One
heart valve has been closed since
the child was born.
DR.. John Jones, a nationally
known heart specialist, is to per-
form the operation in the near
future at Los Angeles Children's

Sought in Virginia
By the Assoeiofed Press

RICHMOND, Va. Mar. 3.-The
Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone
Co. plans to ask for further rate
hikes soon. at a time when its
last approved increase is still be-
ing fought in the courts.
w. H. Trapnell, vice president
and general manager OF the C. &
P. said higher costs and "contin-
uing heavy demands" for addi-
tional telephone service, make the
new request inevitable"
He said, however, he does not
know how much of a boost the
company will ask of the State
Corporation Commission, or just
when the request will be filed.
The phone company has made
three previous requests for rate
hikes since 1916. 1t won increases
in 1947, 1948 and 1850. The
latter increase, amounting to S.
$4,000, Is still being fought by
the League of Virginia Munich
palities, which will argue against
it next week before the State
Supreme Court of Appeals.
Mr.. Trapnell said yesterday
that the demand on C. & P. is
greatly accentuated" by the pres
ent international emergency land
growing defense measures. Look
ing ahead, he said c. g. P. must
plan for an enormous expansion
of our plant during a period of
high construction costs"

Morrison Hits Idea
World War III Is On
By the Associated Press

LEEDS, England, Mar. s.
Deputy Prime Minister Herbert
Morrison said today that Britain's
Labor government utterly re-
jects" the view that World War
III has begun.
Mr.. Morrison, who is seen as a
possible successor to ailing For
eign Secretary Bevin if the latter
gives up his job, devoted his entire
speech before a regional Labor
Party meeting to foreign affairs.
He reviewed Britain's socialist
foreign policy" since the last war
and attacked Russia for "sabo-
tagging the efforts of the United
Nations to create collective Sc
curity"
The speech was temperate, how
ever, and even though attacks
on Russia were sprinkled through
it, it seemed an appeal to coun-
teract pro-Russian sentiments of
some of Labor's. extreme left
wingers.
He devoted a sizable part of the
speech to praise of the United
States, pointing to the Marshall
Plan "as a prime example of pub
lic-spirited foreign policy in &C
ton"

Rising Egg Price Here Forces
D. c. to Try Buying in Baltimore

Although he objected this bid
was excessive, Mr.. Brennan said
he was forced to accept it, but he
gave an order for only one week,
instead of the full month. The
bidder was Capital Egg Products,
Inc.
Mr.. Brennan, meanwhile, has
learned that Baltimore hospitals
are getting better eggs or 5 cents
a dozen cheaper than the price
quoted by Washington merchants.
And so. for the first time since
World War II, he has decided to
buy from sources outside the Dis
trlct because of high prices here.
He said he plans to ask Balti-
more firms to bid on the eggs for
the remainder of the month and
may give them a contract for
April, if Washington dealers can
not meet their best price.

Suspect Held, Another
Sought in Baltimore
Strang|e Staying
By the Assoeiatsd Pres.

BALTIMORE. Mar. 3.-Police
looking for the strangle slayer of
Thelma Parker picked UP a 25-
|year-old man for questioning yes
terday and said they also were
seeking another known as ''the
Number"
Miss Parker, 44-year- air.
plane assembly-line worker, was
found early Thursday on the ter
raced lawn outside her apartment
home at Middle River on the
eastern skirts of Baltimore. She
was a sister of Miss Pearl Parker
|of 1117 Vermont avenue NV,
Washington, with whom she for
merly lived.
Within 15 minutes after check
ing out at the nearby Glenn L.
Martin Co. plant she had been
attacked.
Clothing Torn.
Some of her clothing had been
torn away, leading investigators
to believe her assailant had been
bent on rape, but was frightened
away before carrying out his plan.
An autopsy showed death was
caused by strangulation. Exam
iners said Miss Parker's neck was
so badly swollen that the attacker
apparently had stood on her neck
to prevent an outcry.
The 25-year-old man under
questioning had been picked up at
nearby Essex, Md. 1t. Carroll
Simmons of Baltimore County po-
lice, who headed the investigation,
refused to say how the man figured
in the case.
Heard Strange Sound.
The search for 'the number"
was begun after a woman tele-
graph messenger told police she
had heard strange sound in some
bushes while delivering telegram
in the murder area.
Investigators leaned toward the
theory that Miss Parker's assail-
ant was a drug -crazed sex maniac.
They said this would account
for his attacking her in an area
where one scream would have
brought several neighbors to her
aid, beating her so viciously, then
dragging her to within a few feet
of an apartment house where sev-
Ieral lights were burning.

The rising cost of living is fore
ing the District government to GO
to Baltimore to buy eggs.
A fews weeks ago, Purchasing
Officer Roland M. Brennan opened
bids to supply local institutions
with eggs for March. They use
about 4,800 dozen eggs a week,
and in February these were bought
at Alb cents a dozen.
But the lowest bid Mr.. Brennan
received was 49.4 cents a dozen.
He rejected all bids as being too
high and called for new ones.

was 56.41 cents a dozen. This
also was rejected.
The third set of bids was opened
yesterday. The price per dozen
was still climbing-58.25 cents a
dozen.
