Even though the New York
newspapers are closed down, it's
still business as. usual-well,
pretty much as usual-for their
Washington correspondents.
Their work goes on because
ta) most of them also supply
stories for national syndicates
and (b) they want to be ready in
case the photoengravers' strike
should end suddenly.
A check around town today
got these responses:
James B. "Scotty" Reston, New
York Times-"Our syndicate
keeps us busy, of course. Then
we're also planning some way to
cover this period for our histori-
cal record.
Help for the Historians.
1--WE don't want some future
historian to look in the New York
Times index, and then find we
can't tell him what went on at
the Bermuda conference because
of a photoengravers' strike"
The Times, Mr.. Reston said,
would put out some sort of a
supplement to fill the gap.
James E. Warner, New York
Herald Tribune-"We're still
publishing a Paris edition, you
know, and we still have the syn
dicate. I'd say business is the
same as usual"
One proof: The Herald Trib-
une'S bureau chief, Roscoe Drum
mond, is in Bermuda for the Big
Three conference.
James j. Patterson of the New
York Daily News said the bureau
still files stories up to midnight
each night so there would be no

Senator Joseph McCarthy's
appeal to the American people
to make their views known to
the White House by wire and
mail on the administrations S
stand on the matter of trade
between our allies and Red
China may turn out to be an
effective weapon for President
Eisenhower at Bermuda, &C
cording to a Congressman who
does not want his name men
toned.
This may prove blessing
in disguise for Ike and Dulles"
said the Congressman. Neither
wants to swallow the Red pill
of China'S recognition which
Churchill intends to give them
at Bermuda. If the Mccarthy
appeal finds a large response
among the American public our
top negotiators could point out
to Sir Winston that the temper
OF the American people is op-
posed to any kind of seals with
the Reds. McCarthy's criticism
may turn out to be valuable
diplomatic asset in the hands
OF our leaders"
AS matter of fact, the ques-
ton of cutting off assistance to
those allies of the United States
who are sending strategic ma
terialS to the countries behind
the Iron Curtain was settled
two years ago when Congress
passed Public Law 213, gen.
orally known as the Battle Act.
This law provided that any
country receiving assistance
from the United States would
be cut off from further aid in
the event it sells or exports
strategic materials to the U. S.
S. R. or a satellite.
Originally Congress intended
this law to become automatic
as soon as sufficient proof was
produced to show such trans
actions. But on the insist
ence of the White House and
the State Department, the leg
iSlation was modified and gave
the executive branch latitude
to decide when and if such
measures should be enforced.
Secretary of State Acheson
pleaded that an indiscriminate
enforcement of the law might
work hardship on some of our
allies who might be compelled

the help of a few million SOL
diers. I don't like to get per-
sonal, Mr.. President, but where
we're you when Joe was getting
his war wounds by stepping
in a bucket and falling off
a ladder?'
And then I ask him why he
doesn't save the taxpayers
money by abolishing the State
Department and letting Joe
handle things. Well, what do
you think of it? Like I said,
it needs polishing up"
"The thing to do then is to
polish it up. And when you've
done that, tear it up. Write
a letter to Santa Claus in
stead, telling him what you
want for Christmas"
And I suppose you know
what I want for Christmas?"
Peace on earth and good
will toward men, I hope"
Funny thing: That's just
what I do want. But that
feller makes me so blamed
mad!"

Thursday morning at the White
House, and Mr.. Nixon, barring
a conflicting appointment. will
present the cup to the winning
team late Friday at Columbia
Country Club.
The ceremonies are a part Of
the biggest week the junior
golfers ever have enjoyed here
including the second USGA
junior championship three years
ago at Congressional.
The Simpson Cup, for a re-
fresher. is the junior series pat
termed after the Walker Cup
that matches the best juniors of
the District area against the top
young stars of the Province of
Ontario. The cup was donated
by Robert Simpson Co., Ltd, Of
Toronto. AS if you didn't know,
Frank Emmett has been the most
consistent worker from this end.
If Mr.. Nixon is on hand Fri
day, the ceremonies will have the
third big name in as many years.
Justice Clark presented the cup
to the Washington team when it
won. 8-3, here in 1851 and the
Prime Minister of Ontario had
the honor last year when the
Canadians won, 7-5. Like most
team matches, it has seen the
home team winning in the past.
Emmett has named the District
team and has supervised practice
sessions at Columbia in both the
Scotch foursome and singles
play. John Grubb of Manor and
John Redman Of Fort Dupont

stronger than last years losers,

The new champion, 30-year-

Wilson 0utpoints
DreYer in " Bout

BOSTON, July 10. - Wilbur
Wilson, Boston schoolboy. put on
a blistering finish to gain split
decision over Gerald Dreyer, Brit
ish Empire welterweight boxing
titlist, in a bruising 10-round ma
tionally televised bout tonight.
Wilson weighed 1872. Dreyer
1881.
Dreyer, from Pretoria, South
Africa, is an outstanding and
straight-punching performer and,
by drawing back and taking care
full aim with his let's and rights
to the head, pulled wide early
lead.
During the first five rounds,
the crouching Wilson tried to
crowd and out-rough the South
African. But the Bostonian had
very little success with those tao
tics until late in the fifth. when
he shook Dreyer with a solid
right to the body.
That blow marked the turning
point Of the exciting brawl.
Thereafter, Wilson forced Dreyer
to follow his style and Wilbur
had marked success pounding
Dreyer's face with singing let's
and rights. The lefts bruised
Dreyer's right cheekbone severely.
Refree Jimmy McCarron was
the only official to favor Dreyer
by a 97-95 margin. Judges
John Glynn and Harry Sundberg
favored Wilson by 1894 and 98-
90 margins. thereby booming
Dreyer to his second setback in
