The cabinet wives worked that

that one from each will sit at

the other at Mrs. Nixon's.
Those tables will have place

PANAMA R-A U. S. Air Force

manslaughter following the death
OF five children who took anti
malaria tablets he prescribed.
The American is DIR. Charles H.

stationed at Albrok Air Force
Base in the Panama Canal Zone.
Panamanian officials at Ell Lirio,
an interior village where the tra-
gedy occurred, released him last

bond.
Officials said the five children,
ranging in age from 10 months to

taking tablets which Barnes had
given them on visit the previous
day.
Barnes rushed back to Ell Lirio
Sunday night in heavy rain as
soon as he learned of the deaths.
At the request of the local author
ltles, he returned to the village
again yesterday and remained
there until bail was posted.
