His "Deadline, U. s. A." q

about as good a job as the

Associated Press editors will be

When a dispatch comes OF the
Associated Press teletype an
nouncing that the newspaper is
folding. the dispatch is slugged
'95' and bulletin" without q
dateline. Associated Press uses q
dateline-the city of origin
and the "95" and bulletin"
slugs are never used on the
same story.
Both represent different de-

Mary Todd Lincoln Describes As Myth Lincoln Rutledge Romance

CHICAGO, (P)- The familiar tragic love story of Abe Lincoln and Ann Rutledge once was in dignantly described as myth by Mary Todd Lincoln.
 In letter written to a Supreme Court justice and made public Sunday. the Civil War presidents widow asserted Lincoln always assured me he had cared for no one but myself"
 Willard L. King, a Chicago law yer and historian, said he came across the letter in his research for a biography of David Davis of Bloomington, H., an Illinois circuit judge whom Lincoln ap- pointed to the U. s. Supreme Court.
 Davis was administrator of Lin, coln's estate. King said he found the letter in papers of Davis great-grandson, David Davis W.
 Some historians have said Ann Rutledge and Lincoln were. en- gagged to be married when both lived in New Salem, H., but that she died of fever before they could be wed. These biographers say Lincoln never recovered from shock and grief
 But. Mrs. Lincoln wrote:
 My husband . always aS- sured me he had cared for no one but myself. |. I shall always remain firm in my conviction that Ann, Rutledge is a myth.
 "Nor did his joyous laugh lead me to suppose his heart was in any unfortunate woman's grave but in the proper place with his loved wife and children"

Their cut in the 500 billion foreign

Chairman Richards Of the

the 500 billion figure.

Representative Vorys of Ohio, a
Republican member of the Foreign
Affairs Committee, has predicted
there will be further reductions of
about 81 billion.

Shortly after the committee
voted 10 days ago to cut $998, 9O0,-
600 from the measure, Mr.. Vorys
contended in statement that this
in reality was not a cut at all. He
based his argument on the fact
that the committee at the same
time included a provision giving
the Secretary of Defense discre-
tionary authority to make avail
able for foreign aid up to 81 billion
of this country's own military
supplies. He said the net result
increased the bill.
Mr.. Richards said he would
challenge this as a "fallacious"
argument. He expects several
moves from the House floor to
cut the bill again. He will oppose
them on the ground the commit
