Roger Smith Hotel
Fire Injuries Three

Flames leaped three stories
high at the Roger Smith Hotel
today as fire broke out in a
paint storeroom. routing 25
breakfast customers from the
dining room.
Three firemen suffered burns
on their hands and faces.
The blaze occurred shortly
after two painters had been in
the room to get supplies, firemen
said.
Fire damaged the paint and
smoke damaged other parts of
the basement. S. c. Livingstone,
manager of the hotel, estimated
the loss at several thousand dol
lars.
Traffic on Pennsylvania ave-

The Shark has a swept-back

The Foreign Operations Ad-
ministration announced today
that American and foreign man
ufacturers each will supply about
half of the locomotives and
freight cars which FOA plans to
give India.
FOA thus compromised dis
pute between American manu-
facturers and foreign firms,
which had submitted lower bids.
Low bidder for the locomotives
was the Japanese Rolling Stock
Export Co. of Tokyo at $81. .47O
apiece. High bidder. at $f78.200
each, was the Baldwin-Lima-
Hamilton Corp. of Philadelphia.
A Belgian firm was low for
the freight cars. Two American
firms were high for these cars.
The principle of dividing the
business between American and
foreign firms was announced by
FOA Administrator Harold E.
StaSSen.
FOA plans to give India 100
locomotives and 5000 freight
cars. The costs to the United
States originally was estimated
at $40 million, but Mr.. Stassen

Anti-BottIe Club Law
Adopted in County

A new ordinance aimed at
discouraging after-hours bottle
clubs in Prince Georges County
was unanimously approved today
by the county commissioners.
County Attorney c. Calvert
Lancaster said the new ordin-.
ance contains the standards
which were lacking in an earlier
anti-bottle club ordinance de-
clared unconstitutional last
month by Circuit Court Judge
Charles C. Marbury.
The new ordinance, approved
after public hearing in Hyatts-
Vile, gives the three bottle clubs
now in the county 80 days to
comply.
It does not specifically outlaw
bottle clubs, but requires that
they be licensed and follow the
same closing regulations re-
quired of ordinary night clubs
and bars-2 am. on week pights
and midnight on Saturdays.
The commissioners passed
their original and now invalid
bottle club ordinance in the wake
of a new law passed by Congress
against after-hours establish
ments in the District. The pur-
pose of the county ordinance is
to prevent such establishments
moving into the suburbs after
the District breakdown.

u. S. Collects SOS Million
Back Tax on PeddIer's Estate

estate taxes and asserted moth

The Government placed a
higher value than had the trus-
tees on large holdings of stock
in the w. T. Rawleigh Co., First
National Bank of Chicago, Jewel
Tea Co., Inc, Northwestern Tele-
phone Co. and the State. Bank
of Freeport.
In another stipulation the
Government agreed to accept
$21 ,315 in settlement of it's orig
inal claim for an additional gift
tax of $1,175,144.
The trustees contended the es-
tate had overpaid the gift tax
by 491,195 and had applied for
return OF that amount.
Mr.. Rawleigh died in 1851 at
the age of 80.
The controversy over the
amount of the gift tax centered
on 2,675 shares OF RawIeigh
company stock which he trans
ferred to a trust fund.
Mr.. Rawleigh founded the
company in 1889. It and a Cana
dian subsidiary turn out medi-
cines, food products, confections,
fiavoring extracts, cosmetics and
household and farm supplies.
These are sold through house.

Decision on Equipment for Indio
Seeks to Bolster American Economy

would add about 81 million to
the cost.
Mr.. Stassen, in explaining the
decision at a news conference
said FOA had to face the prob
lem of trying to procure products
at the lowest possible cost but
at the same time trying to help
American economy.
Mr.. Stassen said the control
ling factor was the amount of
unemployment in the American
railway equipment firms. He
noted that various segments of
the United States economy have
suffered dips at different times.
but right now the railway equip
ment builders are in a slump.
IF our economy picks back
UP, we might go back to low
bidders" Mr.. Stassen said.
He added, however, Americas
foreign aid program never has
been on a strictly low-bid basis
and that contracts often have
been Influenced by consideration
of political and economic factors
such as East-West trade rela-
tionships. He cited the principle
of the foreign aid law which
requires that one half of foreign
aid be moved in high-cost
American ships rather than by
foreign lines which can do the
business more cheaply.

The first inter-continental
guided missile has been moved
to the Air Force Missile Test
Center at Cocoa, Fla, for test
ing, it was learned today.
Designed to travel as far as
5000 miles and at speeds in the
neighborhood of 600 miles an
hour. the weapon already has
undergone extensive tests at
Holloman Development Center,

It is the Air Forces surface

Officials said the Shark was
tested in New Mexico first to
determine its flying character

scribed those tests as successful.
In Florida the weapons guild

tensive tests. While officials ex-

"Rumors of the sale of COM

he told newsmen at London air
port.
The head of the family

In Manila for

Coils Session One
Of Most important
Of Our Times
BY the Assoeiaied Press

MANILA, Sept. 3.-United
States Secretary of State John
Foster Dulles arrived today for
an eight-nation Southeast Asia
security conference he called
zone of the most important
international conferences of our
time"
An 18-gun salute doomed as
Mr.. Dulles plane landed. Two
military bands began playing
and a host of dignitaries crowded
forward.
United States Ambassador
Raymond Spruance and Minister
William F. B. Lacy led American
officials shaking hands with the
Secretary.
Il am happy to be again in
the Philippine Republic" Mr..
Dulles told the crowd. II partic-
ularly look forward to seeing
again Mr.. Magsaysay. I met
him here before when he was
minister Of defense. Now i
shall be honored to pay my re-
spects to him as President"
Dimes With Magsaysay.
Two hours after his arrival
Mr.. Dulles called on Mr.. Mag
saysay and the two dined to-
gether on an open porch of
Malacanan Palace.
Tomorrow American and Phil
ippines officials will meet in ad-
vance of the foreign ministers
conference opening Monday to
discuss ways and means of
strengthening the mutual de-
fense pact linking the two ma
ton.
Il am confident that through
frank discussion and mutual un-
derstanding we shall find ways to
advance further Philippine secu-
rity," Mr.. Dulles declared in his
statement.
Next Monday Manila will be-
come the seat of one of the most
important international confer
ences of our time. The represen-
tatives of eight free nations will
meet here to discuss how to pro-
tect Southeast Asia and the
Southwest Pacific from aggres-
sion."
Cool to Strong Alliance.
The secretary was expected to
dampen the enthusiasm of the
Philippines and Thailand for a
strong military alliance against
Communism.
The United States already has
indicated it is not anxious to go
along with their demands for
a pact binding members to in
stant retaliation in the event of
an attack against any one of
them.
