Dulles Not Always Consistent
On Question Of Red China

whether he had changed his
mind since writing his book. Mr..
Dulles said: Since that was
written, there has been the ag-
gression of the North Koreans
in Korea. There has been the
Chinese intervention in that ag-
gression. There has been the sup
port by Communist China OF ag-
greSSion in Indo-C China"
Statements Compared.
Mr.. Dulles remarks yesterday
about a possible veto Of Red
China make interesting compari-
son with statements he made at
a news conference nearly q year
ago on July %. 1858.
A year ago, Mr.. Dulles said the
position of the United States had
been that question SUCH as the
seating of Red China should not
be subject to the veto. He said
that since other countries did not
agree with us, we would be free
to alter our position. but he was
very reluctant to see the veto
used on questions of that sort.
Yesterday, Mr.. Dulles said, I'VE
would invoke the veto if neces-
sary."
A year ago, Mr.. Dulles was
asked whether he had the votes
to prevent Red China's admis-
sion to U. N. Mr.. Dulles replied
that he did not talk in such
mundane terms about the u. N.
which, as the correspondent
knew, was a very lofty organiza-
ton.
Yesterday, Mr.. Dulles said,
I'VE do not believe that the
requisite vote can be found to
admit the Communist regime"
A year ago, Mr.. Dulles was
asked whether he would use the
veto as the last resort to keep
out the Chinese Reds. The
Secretary replied that the cor
respondent was getting very
hypothetical.
Yesterday. he was asked sub
stantially the same question. Mr..
Dulles replied that the United

Castillo New Leader
As Fiye-Man Junta
Is Reduced 10 Three
BY the Asseeiosed Press

GUATEMALA, July 9.-Col
Carlos Castillo Armas finally
rode the top of the political heap
in Guatemala today. The gov
ernment1 announced the rebel
chief was elected president OF
a new three-man junta-the
fifth government turnover in
less than two weeks.
Col. Elfego Monzon, temporary
chief of the f1ve-man junta in
charge since last Friday, re-
mained on the new pared-down
ruling body.
But the reinS were clearly in
Col. Castillo's hands. The third
member of the top group-Maj.
Enrique Oliva--was defense min
lister in the provisional govern
ment which the rebel leader set
up at Chiquimula after his army
of Guaternalan exiles invaded
their homeland from neighbor-
ing Honduras on June 18.
Unanimous Vote.
IA government decree last
night said Col. Castillo's election
was effective Immediately. The
announcement said the five
members Of the previous junta
voted unanimously to make MIN
head man at a meeting Wednes-
day night. =.
The other two members of
the previous group-Lt. Coils.
Mauricio Dubois and Jose Luiz
Cruz-resigned. In a formal
statement they said smaller
group would make governing
easier. It was speculated the
two would draw diplomatic as
signmentS, one likely in Wash
ington.
Col. Castillo's emergence as
chief of Guatemala's newest an
Tired regime had been ex-
pected for several days. The
move finally gave the colonel's
liberation army a clear-cut VIC
tory.
Dissatisfaction Noted.
Most of his followers were
openly dissatisfied with the COM
promise arrangement he reached
with Col. Monzon at a peace con-
ference last week in El Salvador.
The conference set up the five
man junta which Col. Monzon
headed as temporary chief. It
was agreed that a permanent
president would be picked by
July II.
Col. Castillo's drive into Qua
temala from Honduras spanked
a series of rapid government
shakeups. First. President ia
cobo Arbenz Guzman, whose
government had had Communist
support, quit on June ~. A jun
ia headed by Col. Carlos En-
rique Diaz. his army chief of
staff, took over for one day.
Then Col. Monzon stepped in.
Through mediation efforts of
United States Ambassador John
E. Peurifoy, he came to terms
with Col. Castillo. They made
triumphant entry into Guate-
mala City Saturday.

Senate Group Votes
Farm Bill With Items
President Opposes
BY the Assoeio.sd Press

The Senate Agriculture Com
inittee by a 1872 vote today ap-
proved a general farm bill con-
tanning many features opposed
by the Eisenhower administra-
ton.
Chairman Aiken said he voted
to send the controversial meas
ure on to the Senate because II
am confident that it will approve
q bill acceptable to the Presi-
dent"
He said Senator Williams, Re-
publican, of Delaware, and An
derson, Democrat, of New Mex
leo, a former Secretary of Agri-
culture. voted against reporting
the bill.
Voting with Senator Aiken to
report the bill were Senators
Young. Republican, of North
Dakota; Thye, Republican, Of
Minnesota: Hickenlooper. Repub-
lican, of Iowa; Mundt, Repub-
lican, of South Dakota; Schoep-
pei, Republican. of Kansas:

Ellender, Democrat, of Louisiana:
Johnston, Democrat, Of South
Carolina; Holland, Democrat. OF
Florida; Eastland, Democrat, Of
Mississippi; Clements, Democrat.
of Kentucky, and Humphrey.
Democrat, of Minnesota.
Reject Flexible Supports.
BY an 81 vote the committee
rejected administration requests
for a flexible system of farm
price supports and asked one
year extension Of rigid, Copper
cent-of parity supports for
wheat, cotton, corn, rice and
peanuts.
Senator Aiken said he would
ask the Senate to substitute for
this a flexible support range Of
80 to 90 per cent.
The House already has voted
q flexible system Of from 82l2
to 80 per cent after upsetting its
own Agriculture Committees de-
mand for another year Of rigid
supports in major field crops.
Senator Aiken said point
In the Senate bill that will cause
q floor battle is the one to raise
supports for dairy products to
IS per cent, or 10 points above
the IS per cent level ordered
into operation April l by Sec
retary Benson. The House voted
an 80 per cent level.
Senator Aiken said he would
ask the Senate to retain the rs
per cent basis because of the huge
stocks of cheese. butter and
dairy products now in Govern
rnent hands.
Surplus Is Issue.
Another dispute centers around
q proposed $2.5 billion set
aside" of the more than Sc bil-
lion of farm surpluses now held
by the Government. As-
The Senate committee approved
this 1915, along with rigid high
level supports, but Senator Aiken
said it was offered only as part of
the flexible price support proposal,
He said the farm bill probably
cannot be reported to the Senate
before Monday, in order to COM
plete conflicting reports on sew
eral issues. He said debate
probably can begin Thursday.

Asphalt Roofing
Versatile Suits
All Structures

Buildings of all sizes, shapes,
and purposes can be suitably
rooted with at least one of the
many different types of asphalt
roofing material. The asphalt roof
ing industry supplies 30 to IS
percent of all the roofing now re-
quired in the United States, ac-
cording to the u. S. Department
Of Commerce.
Asphalt shingles are the most
widely used roofing material for
homes. Their combination of
weather-resistance, color, econo-
my, long life, and fire-resistance
has led to their selection for about
four -fifths of all new homes as
we'll as for new roofs on older
dwellings.
Asphalt roll roofngs are often
selected for farm buildings and
other service structures. Roll roof
ing, like asphalt shingles, is pro-
duced in numerous solid and
blended colors.
"Build-up" roofs are used for
flat-roofed structures. A roof of
this kind is manufactured" on
the roof deck by applying several
layers of felt, which are saturated
and bonded together with liquid
asphalt.

modernization at one time, this is
the only way to color-style a
house in keeping with contempo-
rary trends in design" Rahr says.
"The work can be done step by
step, as the home Owners budget
permits, but if he is faithful in
following the master color plan
he will achieve the result he
wants just as we'll as if he had
been able to have all the work
done at once.
The master plan, as its name
indicates, should be absolutely
complete. Don't overlook single
part of the dwelling. Even as
minor a detail as a mailbox by the
front door should be included. AS
a rule, a mailbox should be cam
ouhaged by painting it to match
the wall behind it. A mailbox
doesn't have to be black and con-
Spicuous. The mailman will soon
enough learn where it is"
In making a master color plan,
start with the roof, the color con-
sultant recommends. He suggests
selecting asphalt shingles in any
of the wide range of solid and
blended colors in which this ma
terial is made and then letting the
roof "set the color pace" for the
rest of the house.
"The roof is the largest un-
broken area on the exterior of a
house and for that reason serves
as background for. colors of
other sections" Rahr explains.
Select the roof color first, then
the color for sidewalks, and finally
colors for trim and accent.
Keep in mind color's power to
create illusions. A light, pastel
asphalt shingle color tends to
make a small house appear larger,
while darker color will make a
tall house seem lower" ~
Rahr advises home-owners to
follow their personal likes and
dishkes in color selection. Color
on the exterior of a house offers
the ihome-o owner welcome OPP
portunity" to express his person
ality as he wishes.
BE free in using the colors you
really like" he says. More i'm
oortant than any other factor in
'olor selection is that you please.
