with extreme elation the adver-

The registration fee Of 81 900 per

"Sam Raskin has plan to help
Israel and at the same time en-

SCHOLARS OFFER many ex-
plantations for the reading of the
Song of Songs during Passover,
but the passages in it, descriptive
of the passing of winter, are very
fitting at the holiday season:
For 10 the winter is past
The rain is over and gone
The flowers appear on the
earth
The time of the singing Of
birds has come
And the voice of the turtle
dove is heard in the land"
The voice of the turtle and the
beauties of nature are supplement-
ed by the many colorful variations
which characterize the celebration
of Passover among the varieties
of Jews now being integrated in
Israel.
Some of the Oriental Jews wear
loose-fitting clothes at the Seder
to symbolic the Passover spirit
of freedom. Others partake of the
Seder, all dressed up as though
prepared to take off as their an
cestorS took off rather suddenly
several thousand years back o n
their Exodus from Egypt.
The hbbutzim have d d e d
touches of their own for observing
the holiday and these newer modes
contrast very startlingly with the
Samaritan celebration of Passover
on Mt. Gerizim where a paschal
lamb is sacrificed in the most an
cient of all rituals.

a Big Freigh+ers
Ordered by Isruel

NEW YORK, (JTA) - Four of
the largest all-purpose freighters
in the world have been ordered
from a German shipyard by Car
go Ships El-yam, Ltd, of Israel.
The four 14,750 deadweight-ton
vessels will be able to haul any
type of cargo. The diesel-powered
ships will be built in Hamburg as
part of German reparations to Is

total of some $40, 100000.
Raphael Recanati, president OF
the shipping concern, said compile

but it is very old, too. Our English
word "scallion" comes from this
town.
Today there is good news about
Ascalon. It has the largest pipe
factory in the world, financed by
Israel Bonds, and it is the huge
pipes turned out by this factory
which bring the waters of the Var

Many thousands more of barren

of the turtle will be heard louder
at Passover time in Israel.

With flremen rushing from

and a half hours after the blaze

on water from nearby ponds and
from two 5,000-gallon trailers
brought from Goochland County,
40 miles away.
The water system broke down
when the fire ate through cleo
trio wires and stopped pumps.
Water contamination followed.
At the start, the fire was so
hot that fire hose was charred
as water was played on a garage
where Is cars were burned.
= The fire leaped from the barn
to several buildings belonging to
an automobile agency, thence to
a string Of garages used by a

that have been urged in some
congressional quarters. But there
was no question that Red air
bases would be hit hard and early
if the United States became in
volved.
While the President relies on
Admiral Arthur w. Radford,
chairman Of the Joint Chiefs Of
staff, for evaluation of military
capabilities, those close to him
say the Chief Executive has con-
fidence in his own military judg-
ment and is less easily influ-
enced in that field than in any
other.
The President intends to stick
to his position that he will make
no advance commitments despite
conflicting advice in Congress to
say that the United States will
or won't join in a defense OF
Quemoy and Matu.
1t is the feeling in White
House circles that any statement
the islands won't be defended
would cause much of free Asia to
cave in to the Communists.
On the other hand, a publicly
announced decision to defend
the outposts would start a debate
likely to split the free world at a
critical time.

India to Ease Curb
On Monkey Exports
For Polio Research

NEW DELHI. April II R.-
Government sources said today
India has agreed conditionally to
relax her near ban on shipments
of the monkeys needed for Amer
ica's Salk polio vaccine and other
medical research.
The sources said agreement
had been reached in a week of
talks here between high Indian
officials and Stephen B. Ryan,
vice president of the American
National Foundation for Infan-
tile Paralysis. They said the
agreement provided:
The foundation will open an
Office or appoint an agent in ~"

handling the animal shipments.

parent lack of confidence or
faith in a jury"
The Government referred to
an appellate court opinion in an
earlier indictment against Mr.,
baltimore.
! A key count in this indictment
charged Mr.. baltimore with ly-
ing when he said he was never
a "sympathizer or any other kind
Of promoter" of communism.
At that time. the court held.
8 to /, that the word sym
pathizer" was used without any
attributed concrete meaning and
thus was too vague to maintain
a charge.
But today's brief asserted that
this deficiency had been cor
rected in the new indictment by
defining the terms follower"
| and promoter"
Four Counts Thrown Out
-Four counts of an original
seven-count perjury indictment
| returned in 1852 against Mr.
baltimore, including the key
"sy mpathizer" count, were
thrown out by Judge Young
dahl last year.
Subsequently, the appellate
court reInstated two of the
counts but upheld the Judge in
dismissal of the key count and
one other. This left five minor
counts still hanging over Mr..
baltimore.
Later, Mr.. baltimore was in
dicted for q second time. This
is the indictment at issue now.
Refused to Disqualify Self
After the second indictment
was returned, but before argu-
ments on dismissal Mr.. Rover
accused Judge Youngdahl OF be-
ing biased in Mr.. Lattimore's
favor and demanded that the
jurist disqualify himself as trial
Judge in the case.
| This, Judge Youngdahl de-
clined to do. He termed the
!; charge "scandalous."
The accusations against Mr..

Green will have its first building

more substantial than those that

Mayor DeJarnette said the
losses in yesterdays four-hour
conflagration which swept both
sides of U. S. Route 301 would
reach $75O,000.
One immediate problem was
restoration of drinking water.
The Mayor said it will be several
days before the system is re-
paired and all homes checked by
the State Health Department ac-
cording to law.
Electricity Restored
Telephone service was about
so per cent restored and most
electricity was back.
Everybody did a wonderful
job" Mayor DeJarnette said.
"That includes the $50 firemen.
the State troopers. Army people.
the Red Cross, and our neighbor-
ing towns $"
For drinking water. tanks were
set up by soldiers from the near

nothing but the chlorinated
water provided for them.
