A young first-grader entered the
library one day last week and inn
lnediately spied the large diction-
AIRY which is kept on the stand.
In a loud, clear voice so that every
one could hear, she exclaimed,
"Oh, look at the big Bible!"
Titles of books can be very tricky
at times. A very good example of
this occurred one day when boy
came into the scnool library and
inquired, "Do you have book
called SCRAMBLED EGGS? What
he really wanted was TIE book

District Budget Uni
For Coming Fiscal
Year Announced

Chairman Cannon of the
House Appropriations Committee
today completed assignment of
members to the Appropriations
subcommittee handling the Dis
trict budget for the next fiscal
year beginning July /.
The five-member group of
three Democrats and two Re-
publicans is headed by Repre-
sentative Rabaut, Democrat of
Michigan, whose name was an
nounced previously.
The other members whose ap-
pointments were officially made
public today are: Democratic
Representatives Passman of
Louisiana and hatcher of Ken
lucky and Republican Repre-
sentative Wilson of Indiana, for
mer chairman of the subcom-
mittee, and James of Pennsyl-
vania.
No date has been fixed as yet
for opening the executive hear
ings on the Districts budget.
But, according to the best in
formation, the hearings are a
month or two away.

per cent for postal workers ana
6 or 7 per cent for classified en-
ployes.
That's one of the main reasons
why sponsors of the Senate 10
per cent measure chose not to
have the legislation brought up
for Senate action this week.
They are not sure they have the
necessary votes at this time.
They want to wait several weeks
and count noses.
Most Senate Republicans are
supporting the 712 per cent postal
pay bill approved by the House
Civil Service Committee and the
6 per cent classified pay measure
sponsored by Chairman Murray
of the House unit. If a half
dozen of the more conservative
Democratic Senators Joined the
Republicans on the issue, the
coalition could reduce the 10
per cent raise to the House COM
mittee's figures.
1t now appears the Senate
sponsors of the 10 per cent pay
raise bill probably will yield in
House Senate conference and ac-
cept the House pay raise figures.
In return, the Senate conferees
will insist that the pay raise be
retroactive to January /.
Past occasions show House
conferees have almost always
prevailed when it came to choos-
ing between House and Senate
versions of pay legislation. The
same probably will be true this
time.
The House Civil Service Com
mittee has not yet acted on
classified pay raise legislation,
but the amount it will approve
is expected to be between the
6 per cent advocated by Chair
man Murray and the 712 per
cent it approved for postal
workers. The best guess is that
classified employees will wind up
with a 6 or 7 per cent bill.

President Approves
Peanut importation

A drought-induced shortage of
domestic peanuts has brought a
proclamation by Presiden Eisen-
hover permitting importation
into the United States between
now and June 80 of 81 million
pounds of peanuts in addition
to the normal import quota of
100000 pounds.
The above-quota imports will
be subject to a tariff fee of two
cents a pound in addition to the
basic duty of seven cents a
pound.
The Presidents action, an
nounced yesterday. was based
upon a United States Tariff
Commission report of an inves-
tigation pointing up a peanut
shortage here.
A White House statement said
increased imports were necessary
to meet requirements for pea
nuts in this country after last
years domestic peanut crop was
greatly reduced by drought.
Peanuts are grown here prin-
clpally in Virginia and Georgia.

|ntegrated House Of Lords
Urged by British Peer
by the Associated Press

LONDON. Mar. 10. l. Lord
Samuel suggested yesterday
that Queen Elizabeth II seat
distinguished statesmen from
1.-THE white and colored terri
tories of the whole Common
wealth" in the House of Lords.
The Asians. Africans and
others would serve as a link
with their own peoples" the
Liberal leader said in a debate
on reform of Parliament's upper
house.
Blue FLOODED peers appeared
rocked by his proposal.
Members now are drawn from
families whose homes are in the
United Kingdom. They include
both hereditary noblemen and
commoners elevated to the peer
age by the monarch for services
to Britain.
Lord Samuel, created Wis
count in 1887, recommended
that peers should not auto
matically be admitted to the
house because of their heredi-
tary titles. He suggested that
members "be appointed on
grounds of personal distinction
or public service"

Once-a-week golf when the

the President he ought to try the

staff members did, too, and the
President finally agreed.
But he just hates it," one aide

White House Sees
No indication Of
Corsi Removal

The White House made plain
today that President Eisenhower
has no intention of firing Ed
ward j. Corsi.. State Depart
ment immigration expert. even
though Chairman Walter of the
House Un-American Activities
Committee has said Mr.. Corsi
should not be kept in the job.
Press Secretary James C.
Hagerty issued this statement in
defense of Mr.. Corsi, who was
cited by the Pennsylvania Repre-
sentative last week as member
of two Communist" organiza-
tions:
Mr.. Corsi is working for the
Secretary of State. and I have
no indication at all that that
assignment will be changed"
Groups Cited.
At a recent immigration COM
mittee hearing, Mr.. Walter
charged Mr.. Corsi with being a
member of the American Com
mittee for the Protection of the
Foreign Born and of the Ma
tional Lawyers Guild. He later
retracted the National Lawyers
Guild charge but added two other
ones: The New York Confer
ence for Inalienable Rights and
the United Office and Profess
Sional Workers of America.
Mr.. Corsi said he didn't know
what Mr.. Walter was talking
about"
Mr.. Corsi, former New York
State industrial commissioner,
was brought in to the State De-
partment to help speed up the
tagging refugee program admin
istered by the departments Sc
curity chief R. w. Scott Mcleod.
A suggestion by Representative
Cellar, Democrat, of New York,
that Mr.. Mcleod was being
leased out" and Mr.. Corsi leased
in" as administrator of the Refu-
gee Relief Act brought the &C
cusations from Mr.. Walter.
Representative Walter and Mr..
Corsi do not see eye to eye on
immigration problems. Mr.. Wal
ter is coauthor of the McCarran-
Walter Act, which perpetuates
the quota system. Mr.. Corsi, an
immigrant from Italy, is an out
spoken critic of the quota system
and has spoken and written
against the McCarran-W Walter
Act.
Feels Unwanted.
Discussing the charges last
week. Mr.. Corsi said of Mr..
Walter:
This man just doesn't want
me around here"
Yesterday Mr.. Walter issued
an invitation via the press TO
Mr.. Corsi to come and testify
under oath before a House COM
mittee.
Mr.. Corsi, when asked if he
would accept the invitation, said
he had received none.
