his former wife. now Lady Adele

that their son Timothy, Z, would
be educated in the United States
and brought up as an American.
So, he said, he made a quick
flight to London, picked up the
boy last week end and returned
him to California.
Lady Adele said in London She
will come to California ito try
to get my son back" She added:
IT have never violated any agree
ment. After Tim was Z, which
was last December, the matter of
mutual visits with his father was
to be adjusted"
Mr.. O'Connor issued a state

in the State building here, which
said in part:

GUATEMALA, July 2.-Hand-
kerchiefs to their noses, q long

by deposed President Jacobo
Arbenz Guzman,s secret police.
Some Of those who looked
tainted. Others vomited at the

In the small plaster walled
room in Guatemala City's morgue
a statue Qf Christ stood behind
the cofi1ns, candles burning at its

In the weeks just before and
after Col. Carlos Castillo Armas'
liberation" army of exiles in
vaded from neighboring Hon.
duraS, the police rounded up hun
dreds of anti Communists and
opponents of Arbenz' backed
regime.
OF those picked up, the bodies
Of some so so far have been
brought to the capital-torn, bat
tered and broken by police tor
ture.
Six of these, brought in yes
terday from the little village of
Villa LoboS, were typical. After
several days Of working over by
the police, they were machine
gunned on June "a and left in a
shallow grave.
All were men. Their bodies
were purple from beating,
slashed and cut by fioggings.
Eyes were gouged out and teeth
were kicked in. The groins had
been a favorite target.
Each mans hands were tied
behind him.
Reasons for Torture Unknown.
Why they were tortured was
not, known. Probably they had
refused induction into the army
of peasants Arbenz tried to re-
cruit to fight the onrush by
Castillo Armas' insurgents, the
hastily armed farmers who now
are threatening whatever regime
the rebel chief and the current
military government set UP.
Possibly they were just overly
active against the Communists,
who were strong in the Villa
Lobos area.
Anyway, they are dead, hor-
ribly so.
In Guatemala City most vic
Tins of the police were op-
ponentS of Arbenz's Communist
hackers. Many of their bodies
already have been recovered
tossed in front of their homes or
left in the streets.

An American AirlineS Douglas

in its fight.
The big airliner made the run
from the Nations capital to Los

Claxton's retirement to pri-

Rio Grande Returns
To Banks; Death Toll
May Be in Hundreds
BY the Asseeie,sd Press

EAGLE PASS, Tex. July a.
The Rio Grande was back in its
banks today. its receding waters
carrying the secret Of how many
died and leaving mounds Of
foul, diSease-breeding mud.
Hidden in the muck and in
the draining waters was the
answer to whether the best
available figures-62 dead. 80 to
400 missing-fall short Of the
truth.
President Eisenhower declared
the stricken borderland eligible
for disaster loans. Gov. Allan
Shivers' own State disaster task
force flew to the border to work
with the Federal people. The
Red Cross, the Salvation Army
and individuals had little rest.
Clothing, food, medicine,
money-they were on the way
and the need was great.
Piedras Negras Hard Hit.
The need was greatest across
the river in Piedras Negras.
whose announced toll is 80 dead
and 80 missing. One Mexican
army major said the dead there
may number more than 400. He
said it probably never will be
known how many bodies floated
downstream or how many were
recovered and buried by the
bereaved digging with bare
hands into mud heaps which
once were homes.
Twenty-Five bodies had been
recovered by nightfall last night.
Nuevo Laredo, sister Mexican
city Of Laredo, Tex, counted its
first dead-the bodies of five
members Of q family identified
only as Gomez. They were re-
covered yesterday.
Pride Retards u. s. Aid.
Mexican pride prevented de-
livery Of aid which the United
States was anxious to send across
the river. Apparently protocol
demands q formal request from
the Mexicans. The request was
not forthcoming, although every
one here knew food, medicine,
water and technical help were
needed in Piedras Negras.
Twenty thousand persons who
left their homes in the Mexican
cities were returning to the
cleanup job.
For 200 miles there is not a
bridge intact across the Rio
Grande. Rich tourist traffic into
Mexico and export freight will
be affected for weeks.

Just because you live in an
apartment with a Streamlined
kitchen is no reason why you
can't have homemade pickles
and relisheS. S
Years back. when folks began
moving cityward, most of them
discarded the old-fashioned
pickle crock along with the
butter churn. There simply
wasn't any room in smaller city
quarters for that kind of house
hold equipment. Besides, COM
mercially packed pickles were
getting so good, many home
makers found little reason for
slaving long hours preparing
their own.
There is still plenty Of sense
in such reasoning. Yet, this time
of year. when q bargain comes
along in cucumbers, sweet pep
pers, tomatoes or when you can
buy peaches. watermelon or
pears at slashed prices. you
can't help but wish you could
preserve their crispness for an
evening meal in midwinter.

COVER LAMP sHADEp

TO PRESERVE CLOTHING.
mrs. I. w., TakonG Park
For three years I have
watched readers come up with
ingenious solutions, and. I am
confident that they will be able
to assist with the two following
problems. First of all, I have
a maroon parchment lamp
shade in perfect condition that
I wosld much prefer in gray.
1t is a smooth, round shade
with a narrow metal band on
the top and bottom. Is it pos
Sible to cover it with barkcloth
or other drapery material? I
would prefer fabric to wall
paper.
Secondly, we've bought a sta
ton wagon, and are anxious to
collapse the rear seats and
use the back for play space on
trips. Has any one had sue
cess in padding the sides? I'm
afraid our 18-month-ol will
lose her footing in the event Of
a sharp turn or sudden stop.
To Mrs. A. H. S.: To pre-
serve clothing, pack all wash
ables un-ironed. This pre-
vents dry rot, and makes it
easier to unpack and re-wash
every year or so. Be sure to
fold each garment in a differ
ent manner after washing to
prevent permanent crease lines.
Suits and coats are best hung
In a dark, opaque garment bag
after cleaning and moth-proof-
ing Hang trousers by the
cuffs. Aif-brush and moth
proof everything every spring.
Sweaters can be stored in the
the bottom of the garment
bag. Shoes should be aired
we'll, waxed and wrapped in
tissue.
