and expects to have large herd
within a couple of years.

herd had to be destroyed because
they had a disease.

was $50 each for five male hogs,
and $75 piece for SO sows.
Donald Ciemmer, director of
the Department Of Corrections,

to have at least 800 hogs in the
herd. New buildings for the hogs
have been erected about a mile

The hogs will be fed cooked gar
bage. Previously, raw garbage was
used, and health authorities be-
lieVed this was responsible for the
spread of the disease.

Peckham Acquitted
On Directed Verdict II
Fifth Abortion Trial

DR.. Henry L. Peckham, jr., A,
won a directed verdict of acquittal
today in his fifth trial for abortion.
In commenting on the forced de-
cision, District Judge Edward M.
Curran said there is a "crying need
for a law enabling the United States
attorney to grant immunity protect
ing Government witnesses.
Attorney Albert Ahern. repre-
senting the physician, had argued
that the Governments star wit
nesses. a 26-year-old Arlington
woman. and an Army major did
not have to testify. The woman
and the officer, who earlier had
made a complete disclosure before
a grand jury, took the stand and
refused to testify on grounds OF
self determination.
Lawyers Clash in Court.
The action of the pair touched
off a verbal spat between Mr.
Ahern. Prosecutor Arthur Nc
Laughlin and Attorney Joseph A
Suraci, lawyer for the couple.
Mr.. Ahern told Judge Curran
'"The witnesses have a right to
refuse to incriminate themselves
The Government has threatened
to prosecute them for adultery
Assistant United States Attor-
ney Arthur j. Mclaughlin jumped
up and shouted:
These witnesses came to my
Office when Suraci was present.
They said then they would testify.
What happened after that or who
got to them since. I don't know"
Verdict Is Ordered.
Judge Curran observed, ut
seems awful funny to me that
she (the Arlington woman) should
go to the grand jury and tell the
whole story and then refuse to
testify now"
However. Curran told Mr.. Nc
Laughlin that the Overwhelming
weight of authority seems to be
against you," and then ordered
the verdict of acquittal.
Judge Curran then pointed out
that no immunity law for wit
nesses existed in the District.
Previously Convicted

indictment charging the commits
sion of the offense last Febru-

Reviewing findings of both the
American Dental Association and
American Medical Association. DR.
Jack Friedman labeled as false
the belief that f1uoridation harms

He said that while there exists
no proof showing that adults
benefit from f1uoridation, con-
trolled studies of school-age and
pre- school age children in Illinois

ton of dental decay as high as
60 per cent.

veterans had expected to air COM
plants against Republican House
Candidate Joel T. Broyhill was
kept off WMAL-TV last night on

is unqualified to serve in Congress,
Fear of Libelous Matter Cited.
Lindell s. Shrum, chairman OF
the veterans committee fighting

a statement in which he said
WMAL refused to carry the z pm,
program because its counsel
deemed the script to contain IL
belous allegations.
Charles Kelly, assistant general
manager of WMAL, said the sta
ton refused the program because
the script contained possibly"
libelous allegations. He said an
advertising agency applied for the
TV time last Friday afternoon.
The agency was advised at that
time that the program would not
be accepted until and unless the
script was approved.
Mr. Kelly said the advertisers
were informed of the WMAL de-
cision yesterday morning. He said
the station at no time included
the program IN its schedule, al
though the sponsors advertised it
themselves.
Denies Libel i'm Truth"
Mr.. Shrum said his group was
prepared to document" its case
and he declared: There is moth
ing libelous in the truth" He
said it was planned to refer to the
league House Committee report
questions about Broyhill-
built homes. which has been cited
repeatedly during the campaign
by Mr.. Campbell.
Mr.. Broyhill has said he de-
to be heard by the league
committee, but no hearing has
been scheduled. He denies the
basic charges about the houses

Prosperity Seen
For Christmas
Season Here
U. 5, Agency Expects
Full Employment at
High Wage Levels

The Christmas season in the
Metropolitan Area
promises to be prosperous one,
with the greatest competition for
labor since the end of World
War II.
Predicting this today, the United
States Employment Service for the
District foresees full employment
at wage levels exceeding any met
ropolitan area in the country" 4
Recent census figures, the serv-;
ice pointed out. indicate that the
Washington area. along with San
Francisco and Oakland. Calf, is
the fastest growing in the country.
Expanding Labor Market.
"This indicates an expanding
labor market with increasing Job
opportunities" the Federal agency
said 1T also means that em-
lployers should utilize the skills Of
jail available workers without ar
tiflcial barriers such as age and
physical handicaps." !
The post holiday season, it was
predicted, will probably follow the.
usual pattern of climbing unem.
ployment characteristic of Janu-
|ary. The number of unemployed
after the Christmas layoffs is not
expected to be as large as last
year because there are so many
job openings of a permanent ma
ture which the temporary workers
recruited for the holidays can
easily fill.
September employment in the
Metropolitan Area declined 500
from the previous month. the sur.
vey said. Compared with Sep
tember. 1851. the drop was more
pronounced. But the USES COM
mented these small declines over
the previous month and year do
not appear to be of significance"
An analysis of employment re-
ports during the recent months
seems to Justify feeling Of
sound economic health with stable
employment levels.
There were 1,1O0 less workers
employed this September than
during the same month of 1851.
The latest total employment tig-.
ure for the area is $4,000.
Drop in u. S. Workers.
Employment in the Federal
Government declined by 5000
over the 30-day period. Over the
12-month period there were $500
fewer workers employed by the
Federal Government here.
This development overshadowed
minor losses of 100 in food and
kindred products, 1,1O0 in con-
struction, 200 in local railways
and buslines. 100 in communities
tions and public utilities, 400 in
wholesale trade, 100 in auto and
accessories stores. 800 in eating
and drinking places and 100 in
finance insurance and real estate
establishments.
All other categories recorded
gains ranging from 1900 in gen.
eral merchandise stores to no
change in printing and publish
