De Casper Vote Cut;
He Wins House, but
Not Popular Majority
BY the A.seeissed Pres.

ROME, June 1O.-Premler AL
eide de Gasperi's pro-Western
government coalition won a mar
row 16-vote majority in the
lower house Of Italy's Parliament
today. but trailed the combined
opposition Of extreme left and
right parties in the popular vote
by 115.000 ballots.
A government spokesman an
nounced that the NATO- -allied
center bloc won 303 of the total
500 seats in the Chamber of
Deputies. Premier de Gasperi's
forces already had won a much
reduced, seven-Seat majority in
the senate-125 of the 243 places.
In the popular vote. the off,
cial tabulation gave the govern
ment bloc 13,487, ,036 to 1902
156 for the combined opposition.
Majority Still Hoped For.
The government said. however,
that it might still win a popular
majority because some 1880, 900
invalid votes-most of them so
far ruled out by contests from
the oppositionists-still were sub
ject to review.
The government bloc's total
popular vote of 13. .487,036 in
cluded the following: Christian
Democrats, 10.859,554; Moderate
Socialists. 1,223.870; Liberals,
815,681.
The Communists were second
in the popular vote with 6,122,-
638. The pro-Communist So
cialists got 3,440,222.
Percentagewise, the govern
ment share was 49.7 per cent
of the total valid vote of just
over >27 million. The Christian
Democrats alone polled 40.1 per
cent. The Communist share
was Zz.S per cent.
Lineup of Seats.
The announcement gave this
distribution for the new Cham
ber Of Deputies as result of the

Life in the Country
Handled Lamb Teams With Pup
For Doy-Long Hunting Spree

Tweed Howser's lamb went
hunting the other day. but didn't
get anything. And what is bet
ter, nothing got the lamb.
Every year Tweed has one or
two lambs whose mothers will
have nothing to do with them,
so he has to feed them by hand.
This gets them out Of the notion
of being lambs, and they are
likely to take up with some other
animal about the place.
This hunting lamb took up
with the dog. He won't have
anything to do with the other
sheep out in the field, but stays
in the yard romping with the
cocker spaniel.
It was really the dog that de-
cided to go hunting. and the
lamb. being what he is, decided
to go along. Nobody knew about
it until evening came and there
was no lamb and no dog.
NOW a lamp is smart In some
ways. When you call one of
them you usually get an answer
ing bah. And this trait saved
the day, no doubt, for the lamb.
Tweed went looking for the
pair of wanderers. He looked in
the woods and in the fields
around the house. He finally got
farther down toward the river
before he got an answering bah
very faint and far away.
Tweed found the pair down
near the Potomac about mile
from home. They had been
having such a good time that
they were just too tired to move.
They had been through the
woods. over the back pastures
into the trees beside the river.
Probably they had chased a rab-
bit or two on their way and were
simply too tired to get back
home.
Now things are back to normal.

The lamb and the dog are again
frisking about in the Howser
yard.
Stewart Smith from up at
Lincoln, has slick way of taking
the bed off his wagon. He blows
it off with dynamite.
This method might be a little
complicated for most farmers,
but Stewart had a stump to get
out anyway. so it really wasn't
much trouble.
The stump was near the house
and that is way the wagon got
into the act. Stewart wanted to
be sure the dynamite didn't blow
the stump through his house, so
he rolled the wagon up on the
house side as protection.
The stump came out fine and
so did the wagon bed. And the
house didn't get a scratch.
The clover is getting thick in
the front pasture and the peas
are popping up in the garden.

Rose Planting Now
Gives Head Sturt

Experienced rose gardeners
will start their planting as early
as possible so their roses will be
able to build up strength for
the Towering season.
Planning will make the job
easier and a spot for each rose
should be selected in advance.
This will avoid transplanting
later on. A careful study of the
garden to locate the most fav-
orable spots will help create the
best effects when the garden
comes into bloom.
Locations for roses should be
selected carefully because they
do their best with at least 4 to
6 hours of sunlight daily. Some
shelter from the hot afternoon
sun will help them in the sum-
mer. One of the most important
things to remember is to locate
the beds where the roses will not
have to compete for soil nutri-
entS with trees, shrubs or hedges.
Selecting quality plants is one
OF the best ways to insure good
results in the blooming period
ahead. Varieties like Chrysler
Imperial, crimson red hybrid
tea, and Ma Perkins, a SPAR
king coral-shell pink, are ideal
choices. These two magnificent
roses received the All-America
Rose Selection Award for 1858.
Other popular winners which will
lend beauty and color to the gar
den are Fred Howard, a hybrid
tea of yellow penciled with soft
pink, and Helen Traubel, a lovely
apricot pink. For accent, no
gardener will want to be without
Vogue, a brilliant cherry coral
doribunda.
Hybrid teas are a particular
favorite with American garden
ers. Their distinctive appearances
in both formal and natural
paintings makes them valuable
assets to any garden. In addition,
they offer a continuing supply
of cut flowers for the home
throughout the summer.

Transplanting gives a pretty
fair test of the greenness of your
thumbs.
Nature wrote the rules a long
time ago and it's up to you to
string along. This is no time to
try your hand at being original
1t does a plant no good to be
moved, even when the operation
is done with the most skillful
touch. A plant may seem to
perk up and grow better after it
has been moved, but the oper-
alton has had no tonic effect.
It's growing better because you
have taken it out of surround
ings it didn't like.
Soil in which your vegetable or
flower plants are growing should
be just damp enough to hold to-
gether about the roots. Often
you can lift a plant. with a good
many roots still attached, with
your fingers. A trowel is liable
to cut good many roots.
A piece of broomstick whitfield
to a point is a handy tool for
small plants. Set the plant so
that it stands a little deeper than
it did before Pour some loose
soil around the roots and press
gently but firmly with your
fingers so that all parts of the
root System-bottom and sides
come in contact with soil.
If any air space is left around
the roots. they may dry out and
your little plant will come to an
untimely end.
Now you can pour either a pint
of water or a pint of starter solu-
ton into the hole. To make
starter solution, put a double
handful of garden fertilizer, such
as 5-10-5, into a pail of water,

TronspIonting Time

The tomato. pepper and egg
plant seed that were sown three
weeks ago should be large enough
for transplanting. This should
be done as soon as the first pair
of true leaves form. certainly by
the time the second pair appear.
Keep the plants growing vigor-
ously. Plants that have their
growth checked do not seem to
be as productive as those that
are kept in good vigorous growth
at all times.

Berry baskets are fine for this.
Any transplanting job follows
the same general rules. It's irN-
portant. when you set out bigger
plants, such as rose bushes, to
make the hole big enough-espe-
cially wide enough-So that
roots can spread out.
Then if you do an equally
good job of watering and filling,
you can look at your green
thumbs with new admiration.

Mr.. Nixon's official call on the

ably brought temporary calm.
But veteran observers say it will

mate results are evident.

simultaneously. a tense polit-
ical battle is building up beneath
the surface and Mr.. Sukarno
faces intensified MoSlem oppoSi-
ton.
Mr.. Sukarno. long an oppor-
tunist, has accepted Communist
and LeftiSt support. He has a
suspected Communist as a War
Minister and a known Leftist in
the powerful post of Justice
Minister.
One result has been a clear
warning that censorship may be
clamped on outgoing news, a
warning so plain that this story
is being filed outside the country.
Against this background. Mr..
Nixon made an obvious attempt
to build up Mr.. Sukarno person.
ally during a visit that limited
public appearances to sightseeing
and social engagements.
Observers say the best results,
from the American viewpoint,
could be the effect created by
MI. Nlxon's warm greeting to
hundreds of startled commoners
and the added prestige Mr..
Sukarno might obtain from being
seen with the Vice President.
Nixon Kept From Public.
The worst effect, they say,
would be the reaction from ex-
pected propaganda that the Vice
President tried to tie strings to
the intensely nationalistic Indo-
neSians.
Mr.. Nixon was given no chance
to explain the American posi-
ton to the people. The results
of several conversations with Mr.
Sukarno were kept secret, but
leaks were inevitable-in per-
haps a garbled version.
All top Indonesian officials
made it plain Immediately that
they did not intend to change
Indonesia's policy of trying to
steer a middle EaSt-WeSt course.

new United States military bases
in Spain will "save the Ameri-
can taxpayer money"
Senator Chavez flew here from
Paris to inspect the naval and
air bases which Madrid recently
agreed to let American forces
use in exchange for military and
economic aid to this country.
The Senator said he was sent
here by Senator Bridges, Re-
publican, of New Hampshire,
chairman of the Senate Appro-
priationS Committee, to make
sure that I'VE don't make the
same mistake we made in build
ing bases in French Morocco"
Faulty construction showed up
in the Moroccan bases after they
were built. In Spain it will be
question of extending and i'm
proving existing facilities rather
than building new ones.
The Senator plans to continue
with his party to CaSablanca for
a five-day study of the Moroccan
bases. He said he will find out
what happened there"
The Senator said his son, Den
mis- Chavez. jr.. and administra-
tive assistant Charles Davis were
accompanying him to advise him
because both are we'll trained in
economics. He said they are
making the trip on their own

will determine the actual results
of the trip. And this, in turn,
may have bearing on the ques-
ton of whether Indonesia faces
intensified political and military
strife or whether, for the pres
ent, the problem can be solved
by Oriental compromise.
Military Action Goes On.
While Mr.. Nixon was in the
country. the government moved
tanks and troop reinforcements
to Northern Sumatra for inten-
sif1ed action against fanatic
Chinese who are fighting against
control from the republic. Com
petent observers say government
forces hold only main cities and
communication lines on this rich
island. which the Dutch fought
for 80 years to subdue.
In the Southern Celebes, hun
dreds of miles away, a govern
ment ultimatum to guerrilla
forces expires November /. OBJ
servers say these armed bands,
battling partly for warlord con-
troll, probably will ignore the
surrender demand, and renewed
fighting is expected.
Government forces also are
heavily engaged in West Central
Java with Darul Islam fanatics
who are seeking a theocratic
Moslem state for this predom-
inately Mohammedan country.
These forces constitute strong
military threat.
Communist guerrillas, beaten
five years ago as an effective
military force, are less important
on the battlefield.
