U. 5. Unexpectedly Loses
Vote on Soviet Slavery
BY the Associotsd Press

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y, July
1.-The United States split with
Britain and France and took an
unexpected beating yesterday in
the United Nations Economic
and Social Council meeting at
Geneva.
The United States sought to
have the council debate a report
by a committee of the Interna-
tional Labor Office which found
that forced labor exists in the
Soviet Union and three Commu-
mist countries. The council voted
1915 to postpone debate on this
subject until next year. France
and Britain voted for postpone
ment.
Some delegations felt the Brit
1sh and French did not now want
to stir UP the Russians py a re-
peat of charges made before in
the U. N. and always denied by
the Russians.
The United States is used to
getting big majorities for its
viewpoint in the U. N. The
changing scene in the Soviet
Union and the emergence of
some small countries to a more
vocal position have somewhat
diluted United States strength in
the U. N.

New Anti-UIcer Druu
Gains Worry Nerve
BY the Asseeiofed Press

KALAMAZOO. Mich, July L.
A potent new I anti-ulcer drug
that works by calming your wor-
ry nerve was announced yeSter-
day by the Upjohn Co.
The worry nerve is the vagus
nerve. It carries signals which
make the stomach secrete more
acids. Too much acid plays a
big part in producing peptic
ulcers.
The drug, trade named Pa
mine. blocks this nerve and re-
duces the output Of stomach
acids.
Human tests show that three
to four pills a day quickly re-
lieve pain and other symptoms
of peptic ulcers, said DR.. e. Cliff
ford Upjohn, company presi-
dent. And daily pills might pre-
vent the f1are-up of an old
ulcer.
The newest of such nerve
control drugs, Famine will be
sold by prescription only.
1t is not a cure, said DR..
Joseph Webb, an assistant med
ical director, but it promises to
simplify treatment of peptic
ulcers, particularly ulcers of the
duodenum or first part of the
small intestine. Most of the
estimated 8 million American
ulcer victims have this kind of
ulcer.

Another result, he said in a
prepared statement, were tighter

Americans working for the inter-

President Eisenhower'S recent
order creating a special loyalty
board.
Senator Jenner called for
Continuing vigilance. saying
that agents of the Communist
conspiracy Will not De

mains their prime objective"
Senator Jenner said a bill
passed by the Senate and now
pending in the House. proposing
punishment of persons Of ques-
tionable loyalty who accept u. N.
jobs, was another result Of the
inquiry. And so, he added, is
legislation now pending in the

Fairfax School Board
Sells 81 Million in
Bonds at 2.S6 Pei.

The Fairfax County School
Board yesterday sold 81 million
in school construction bonds at a
net interest rate of 2.86 per cent.
The successful bidder for the
bonds was the National City
Bank of New York, with rate
of 90 per cent, plus a $22, ,480
premium. This makes net rate
of 2.86 per cent.
Financial representatives at
the bond sale said the bid was
excellent. School officials con-
ceded it was lower than they
expected.
Bidders compared it with a
school bond sale in Princess
Anne County, Va, two weeks
ago. The Princess Anne bonds
went for 3.4 per cent.
Fairfax received five binds for
the bonds. The next lowest was
a net interest rate of 2.99 per
cent offered by the Chase Ma
tional Bank of New York.
The bonds represent the first
block of an $11 million bond is
sue authorized in a referendum
last February. Sale Of the bonds
was delayed by litigation over
validity of the referendum.
Money from the bond sale
should be available on Novem-
ber "a. School officials said they
expected to have some school
projects ready to advertise for
bids in December. The entire
$11 million program is planned
to accommodate school enroll
ment until the fall of 1855.
The school board yesterday
voted to buy six new school buses
for $4,000.

Howe owners are looking more
and more to the hedge to serve
in various ways. With expanding
suburban areas, new home own
ers by the thousands are seeking
plants that will help to trans
form their tiny plots into attrac-
tive gardens.
Some want q hedge to give
them privacy; others need hedges
to screen Objectionable views:
sometimes they are needed as
barriers to protect the yard from
trespass. A hedge may also be
used to deaden the noise Of pass
ing traffic.
Plants to serve these purposes
should be lasting. They need to
Withstand pruning to keep them
within bounds. The hedge plant
is expected to offer something in
the way of fruit or flower to sup
plement its foliage values. A
hedge plant should stand up
right, have close, twiggy growth,
carry its foliage to the ground,
and be hardy for the area where
grown.
Because Of our small lots, a
hedge should not take too large
a slice from the total area. Some
hedge plants may be confined to
an area only a foot in width.
Others need 3 or 4 feet, which
is a sizeable segment of a 40-foot
lot. Some of the width can be
controlled through pruning, but
few will want a hedge that re-
quires considerable work to keep
it within bounds.
Evergreens Are Slower.
In the Washington area, most
gardeners desire an evergreen
hedge, although they are rela-
lively more expensive than de-
ciduouS ones. On the other
hand, we have less need for a
hedge in the winter than at the
other seasons. - Evergreen hedges
are slower growing than some OF
the Towering shrubs that will
serve this purpose.
The problem of having a very
narrow hedge or screen seems tc
be best answered by erecting
support for climbing roses. They

without children, and kids too
young to take care of themselves.
There is, however, apparently
no minimum age for an unes-
corted kid. That's left to the
Judgment Of the police.
The party will last nine hours.

southwestern corners of the
White House grounds will be

opened rain or shine"
President Eisenhower will make
one appearance and greet his
guests. Mrs. Eisenhower, her
daughter-in-law, Mrs. John Eli
Senhower, and the three grand
children probably will make sew
eral appearances. The grand
children, David, S; Barbara Ann,
3, and Susie, l. were busily color
ing eggs yesterday. They are
spending Easter at the White
House. Their father, Maj. John
Eisenhower, is in Korea.
Four Bands to Play.
Murray Snyder, assistant White
House press secretary and "press
agent" for the roll" said it
was hoped the crowd would be
evenly spread over the nine-hour
period. For that reason, the
time Of appearance of the Eisen-
hover family was not announced.
-Four military bands will play
for the guests. There will be no
other entertainment furnished by
the White House. Mr.. Snyder
said "egg-rolling" is regarded as
a sort of self-entertaining sport.
"We hope everybody will hard
boil their eggs," Mr.. Snyder said.
I'VE don't want any two-minute
ones. We also ask the guests
not to bring sticks to push their
eggs around.
Because Of the arrangements
for admission, some of the more
enterprising children are ex-
pected to make money by "sell-
ing" themselves to adults. It
has been done in the past when
there was doubt sometimes
whether the children or the
adults were more anxious to at
tend the party.
One more item. The President
cancelled his usual Monday
morning conference with con-
gressional leaders because of the
"egg-roll," and the Easter recess
at the Capitol.
