ANUS Nations Drop
Efforts for Pacific
Security Alliance

The United States, Australia
and New Zealand have decided
against trying to expand their
ANUS alliance into an all-em-
bracing Pacific security pact.
This decision was announced
last night in a communique
winding up a two-day annual
meeting of the ANUS council.
set up last year under the
Australia New Zealand United
States security treaty.
The three governments cited
their alliance as one of a number
of defense arrangements that
together constitute "a solemn
warning to any potential aggres-
sor and represent the growing
foundation for lasting peace in
the Pacific"
Keeping the door open to de-
velopment of a broader collec-
tive security system for the re-
gion, they affirmed readiness to
consider any measure which
would strengthen the defense of
the area"
The communique said the
council unanimously concluded,
however. that to attempt to en-
large its membership would not
contribute directly and materi-
ally to this end"
Secretary of State Dulles, Aus
tralian Foreign Minister Rich
ard G. Casey and New Zealand
Foreign Minister T. Clifton Webb
represented their governments
in the council sessions at the
State Department here.
The ANUS treaty has been
talked about as the possible
first step toward a broad Pa
cific defense pact similar to the
North Atlantic Treaty Organ
ization. Great Britain and some
other countries have expressed
interest in joining the Setup.

Justice Stand Is Right
On Excepted Jobs,
League Head Says

The executive director Of the
non partisan National Civil
Service League said today, he
agreed with the Justice Depart
ment'S contention that veterans
in Schedule A expected Govern
ment jobs should not be covered
by the Veterans Preference Act.
James r. Watson said veterans
without status in these expected
positions should not be afforded
the job procedural safeguards of
the veterans preference law.
There are an estimated 250,-
900 jobs in the excepted A
schedule, about 10000 of them
filled by veterans.
Mr.. Watson expressed the view
that Congress in enacting the
veterans preference law never
intended it to cover veterans who
were in jobs outside of civil
service.

This fine old house and the

funds to purchase it; and it is

Mellon, provided funds for re-
Mobilization of Hampton, SO that
it was put in f1rst-class repair
throughout: and funds from the
same source were used to acquire
part of the original furnishings
OF the mansion.
Dates From 1873
Hampton's history goes back
to 1888, when construction OF it
was started by Capt. Charles
Ridgely, who had been an Amer
ican officer in the Revolutionary
War. It was not completed until
1870, the year of Capt. Ridgely's
death. Until its purchase by the
Federal Government, it had been
continuously in the ownership of
the Ridgely family. Owners at
the time Of the sale were Mr..
and Mrs. John Ridgely Of H.
They were vastly pleased that
the handsome old mansion was
to be preserved for the public
benefit, and donated a great
number of their family portraits,
pictures and other objects.
Under an arrangement which
is unusual but not unique as
far as National Park System
properties go, direct response
bility for operation and manage
ment Of the historic site rests
upon the Society for the Pres
ervation Of Maryland Antiquities.
Resident curator for the society
is Mrs. Dudley D. Lawton, and

feet from the corner on Oak street,

curbing is about Is to Is inches

some other old coins. Some antique
