it is more easily worked. less in

If sod land must be used. it
should be broken UP two or three
months before sowing the seed
so all plant refuse will be well

disked or narrowed at frequent
intervals so a firmer bed will be
available on the proper seeding

Deputy Secretary Of Defense
Roger M. Kyes appeared today
to be the first of four new top
Defense officials to complete the
sale Of privately-held stock in
line with promises to put their
personal financial affairs "in a
glass goldfish bowl"
The Senate Armed Services
Committee kept cover over the
bowl for the present.
Chairman Saltonstall of the
committee said Mr.. Kyes, former
General Motors vice president,
has filed a report on sale Of his
GIN stock and other securities.
The term "glass goldfish bowl
was used by Defense Secretary
Wilson, former GIN president,
when he agreed to sell his multi
million collar holdings and make
report to the Senate.
Confirmation Was Delayed.
Senate confirmation Of four of
President Eisenhower's top De-
tense nominees was delayed un-
til they agreed to dispose of any
interest In corporations doing
military business. A law for
bids any official from doing busi-
ness with a firm in which he
holds even an indirect financial
interest.

Lord Is Sentenced
To 7.21 Years for
Hatchet Staying

Elmer H. Lord. 65. was SEN
fenced today to serve from Z to
81 years for second degree mur-
der in the hatchet Staying last
June of Frank S. Moore, rs, in
a rooming house in the 200 block
of Third street NV.
Sentence was by Judge Walter
M. Bastian of the U. s. District
Court for the District of Colum-
bia who commented that the
defendant had a good prior
record. The maximum penalty
for second degree murder is Is
years to life.
Although the Staying was last
June, the body of the victim,
Mr.. Moore, was not found until
last September IL. Then. it was
discovered by movers who were
taking trunk to a house in the
100 block Of Twelfth street NE,
after the Third street rooming
house had been vacated. The
trunk had been sealed with putty.
The movers became suspicious
and found the body. s
Lord, who was caretaker of
the Third street rooming house,
told police he had struck Mr..
Moore in self defense.
Lord was indicted on a charge
Of first degree murder. Early
this month, he was allowed to
plead guilty to the lesser charge,
according to Assistant United
States Attorney Frederick G.
Smithson, because it was doubt
full that the Government could
prove generalization.

agreed to supply q detailed re-
port on disposal of their A.
nancial holdings by April /.
Senator Saltonstall said today
he would allow the full Armed

lie.

report on his holdings and those
he is selling mot later than some
time in April"
Secretary Of the Army Stevens,
former textile industry executive,
did not fix q definite date for
his report.
Senators estimated that the
four officials held between IS and
$40 million worth Of stock and
securities in a long list of cor
porations at the time they
testified
During the January hearings,
Secretary Wilson was asked by
Senator Byrd: "Will a public an
nouncement be made of the man
ner in which you dispose Of your
stock?"
Has No Objection.
Mr.. Wilson said he planned to
tell the President. Senator Sal
tonStall then asked If he would
give the committee a written
report "of how you dispose OF
your stock, the date you dis
posed of it and give the COM
mittee liberty, If it so seems At,
to make that public?"
II have no objection to doing
it," Mr.. Wilson replied. MY
affairs are in a glass goldfish
bowl, and am willing to do it"
He held about 10000 shares Of
General Motors stock.

WE PROMISE YOU CLEANER TEETH-the clean
est, brightest teeth any toothpaste can give
you.
Our own scientists have told us that the pat
ented cleaning Ingredient in Chlorodent is ex-
cellent. For double-check, we asked the dental
school of a midwest university to test it against
other brands, including ammoniated, chlorophyn
and regular. Chlorodent's cleaning agent came
out on top
You, too, will find that Chlorodent removes
stains better and keeps teeth cleaner. And your
mouth tastes cleaner with Chlorodent. It has
cool, mint-like flavor. Children actually like to
brush their teeth with Chlorodent!

WE PROMISE YOU A FREsHER BREATH. Our
studies showed that Chlorodent would control
mouth odors far better than ordinary dentifrices.
To double-check, we asked one of the best in
dependent laboratories to test Chlorodent against
a white toothpaste.
Almost 1000 tests were made on men and
women Chlorodent was found to keep twice as
many free of mouth odors-even four hours
after brushing. If you have any doubts about
your having mouth odors, we promise you that
Chlorodent will remove them.
As for tooth decay-one source of mouth odors
-Chlorodent removes the bacteria that cause it.
We can say positively that no other toOthpaste
-ammoniated, chlOrophyll or regular-can
give you better protection against decay and
mouth odors than Chlorodent. Use it after meals.

WE PARTICULARLY PROMISE YOUR CHILDREN
HEALTHIER MOUTHS. The most widespread dis
order of the gums is an Inflammation called
gingivits. It's not serious in children, but it can
open the door to mouth disorders that are serious
That's why Father Flanagan's Boys Town in
Nebraska was willing to help out on gingivitis
research project. About 200 Of the boys used
only white toothpaste, while another ''team''

used only Chlorodent. At the end Of 60 days,
Chlorodent had done tUice as good a job in
reducing gingivitis.
A survey Of over $4,000 school children (co-
sponsored by the u. S. Public Health Service)
showed that more than half had gingivitis.
If you suspect that anyone in your family has
mouth trouble. it's wise to see the dentist. And
between visits, use Chlorodent.

It emphasized that the order
to activate the new divisions
does not mean they can be made

days or weeks. Nor does it mean
that United States divisions will
be released from front-line duty
in the immediate future.
It was the second authorize

Two additional divisions will
bring the ROK army to 100000

of Korean service troops.
The increase to IA divisions
would make the ROK army six

InfantrYrHurIs Back
Five Red Attacks
Probing Korea Front
BY the Associated Press

SEOUL. Sunday, Feb. g.
United Nations infantrymen
threw back five Red probing at
tacks last night on the eastern
and central Korea war fronts.
Sharp patrol actions, In mo
ticeable increase, cracked along
the near-zero eastern and west
ern fronts, the United States 9th
Army said.
Air Force B-26 light bombers
and Marine Tiger Cats dumped
tons of high explosives on Com
munist front line positions on
the west-central and east-cen-
trail fronts.
The Air Force said results of
the front strikes were unob-
served but that 80 Communist
supply trucks were reported de-
stroyed.
PyOngyang Area Blasted.
Seventeen B-29 Superforts
rained ITO tons of bombs on two
Communist supply and barracks
targets four miles southeast of
Pyongyang, the Red North Ko-
rean capital.
The Air Force said crewmen
reported fires and a chain of
reaction of secondary explo-
sionS" dotted the two sites after
the raids.
One target area contained
seven single story buildings and
four two-story structures within
a 20-acre area. The other held
$50 single story buildings and
several barracks for Red troops.
Three Against Main Line.
Three of the five Red probes
last night were against main
line positions at the crest and
west of the crest Of Heartbreak
Ridge on the eastern front.
The other two were against
allied advance positions south of
Jane Russell Hill on the central
mont.
They were hurled back in fights
that lasted from five to 80 min
uteS.
The 5th Air Force said two
MICS were destroyed by Sabre
interceptors near the Manchu-
rian border in air battles yes
terdaV.
The Navy disclosed another
heavy pounding of the Commu-
mist east coast port of Wonsan
by the battleship Missouri-the
second in a week. It's big 16-inch
guns leveled on Red camouflaged
gun positions and supply build
ings and caused huge explosions
