North American Newspaper Alliance
The Post Once Department
has invited another row with
Congress by emitting individual
postmaster salaries from its an
nual publication on postal re-
ceipts and compensation.
The volume notes in small
type on the first page that the
new policy will apply in the
future. as we'll as in the current
publication.
Last years booklet was en-
titled Receipts and Glasses of
PostrOfhces, with basic salaries of
postmaSterS." The last five words
were omitted from the 1855 YER
sion.
The department announce
ment said: Effective with this
edition and all subsequet editions
the postmasterS' salaries will no
longer be shown. Under the pro-
visions of Public Law So post
masters salaries are not based
directly on gross receipts"
There was no immediate off,
cial explanation why the fact
that salaries no longer were
based directly on receipts pre-
cluded publication of postmas-
ter stipends, as has been the case
regularly in the past. Public
Law So, passed by the Congress
this year. set up a new classifi-
cation schedule for postmaster
payments.
BY way of contrast, the Civil
Service Commission regularly
publishes the salary of a post
master where a vacancy exists
and new examination is being
announced.
A Post Office Department
spokesman said postal pay was
still matter of public record"
and anyone can find out what
a postmaster gets by calling this
Office"

ton in postmaster salaries be-

Saturday night on the procedure
for handling the question in both
the Council and the Assembly.
Soviet Russia's all-or-nothing
stand, compounded by its SuSpi-

might doublecross it to keep out
some of the five Communist APP
plicants, brought q new veto
threat on the whole deal from
the Russians. Sir Leslie ordered
the recess and asked the Council
delegates to reflect on the conse-
Iquences of failure of the men,

Physicians refer to this condi-

Dulles Proposes
$4,000, 100000
In Foreign Aid

WASHINGTON, R-Secretary
of State Dulles announced Tues
day the administration will ask
Congress for foreign aid appro-
priation of about $4,9OO,O0O 900. 1t
would include a special presiden-
tial fund of 500 million for use
in the Soviet threatened Middle
East.
Dulles told news conference
he regretted very much a misun-
derstanding which he. said had
given congressional leaders the
impression that the program to be
submitted in January would be
about the same as that voted this
year.
Dulles said the new money re-
quest will cover both military and
economic aid. and that the jump Of
about $2,700,0OO,OOO over this
years program is to be explained
in large part by a need to keep the
pipeline Of military supplies full.
He drew a distinction between
appropriations and prospective ex-
penditures, explaining that actual
spending on foreign aid will be
only $500 million more than the
present fiscal year, ending next
June 30.
The money appropriated, but
not to be spent in the new fiscal
year, would add to the reserve Of
foreign aid spending authority for
use in future years. 1t would raise
this to about 81 billion.

Dr.. Gino Frontal, professor Of
pediatrics at the University Of
Rome, has also conducted a series
Of exhaustive tests on the growth
potential of vitamin BIZ. During
two separate seven-month periods,
he administered 20 micrograms of
the vitamin to selected groups Of
children in two different schools.
At the end Of the test period, all
of them gained appreciably more
weight than control classmates
who didn't get the supplement.
From these and other studies,
scientists have learned that BIZ
does more than help piece out what
otherwise might be an inadequate
diet. BY stimulating the appetite,
it can also help turn finicky eat
er into trencherman of at least
average ambition.
Thus, medical specialists Of the
j. B Roerig Co. recently devised,
especially for children, a combina-
ton Of B-complex vitamins, vita
min G and the amino acid lysine.
Called Stimavite, the tablets are
designed to perk up appetite, stim-
ulate growth and help put an end
to mealtime malingering.
