Boys Nation Delegates
Give President q Gift

President Eisenhower was the
pleased recipient Of a new culti-
vator for his vegetable garden
today, the gift of delegates to
the 10th annual American Le-
gion Boys Nation visiting the
White House.
THANK you, very much, fel-
lows, that's wonderful" the
President told the 81 delegates
after personal handshakes ali
around.
The Boys Nation delegates
will start for home tomorrow
after a convention here which
began last Friday. The President
received the delegates this morn
ing in the White House rose
garden.
BY way Of greeting, he told
Doug j. Hopper. II. Of Glendale,
Calf, newly elected president of
Boys Nation that he had q tele-
gram for him.
"They didn't know your ad-
dress, so they sent 1t to me, "
Mr.. Eisenhower told Doug. ZAP
parently they thought that two
presidents must get together"
The President explained that
it was a telegram Of consratula-
tions on Doug's election.
Evening star., 1955-07-28

Mr.. Eisenhower also greeted the
new vice president. Kenneth r.
Jennison, II. Of Carthage, Mo-,
along with the other delegates
and their leaders.
Mr.. Eisenhower said he wanted
to tell Doug a story about an
other young Californian-Dick
Nixon. He said the Vice Presi-
dent had a habit of starting
every discussion with the propo-
sition that "the first thing we
have to find out is, is it right?"
He told Doug that If he could
find out or make up his own
mind what is right and have
the courage to stick by it he
would get along all right and
justify his election to the presi-
dency.
Doug presented Mr.. Eisen-
hover with q Boys Nation en-
blem for his lapel.
Bidding the boys goodbye and
turning to 60 back into the

smilingly gestured toward the

doctors still argue this one,
gamma globulin is only a tenn
porary preventive of paralytic
polio. Now, ironically, as was
the case two years ago, gamma
globulin is the only available
weapon against polio in Fairfax
County.
BY 9 am. a long line Of parents
and their broods had formed out
side the school. 1t was going
to be long day. Children rushed
here and there. Their ages
ranged from 6 months to 6 years
and a line is not the easiest
place to spend a morning with a
child. One woman had her child
in a baby carriage.
Girl Wins Praise
Jacqueline Collins, 3, blond
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. John
A. Collins of 2402 Pimmit drive,
Mclean, got the first shot.
"You were a soldier" her
mother told her afterward.
But on a table next to Jacque-
line a little boy set up a terrific
fuss. He set the pattern for
those that followed. Lollypops,
handed out at the end of the
line, eased the situation some
what.
Last year there were movie

Senate Prepares to Act
On Extension of CopitoI

The bill also provides for ar
additional increase in pay fol-
one employe of each standing
select and joint committee. The
top committee Staffer used to be
paid $11,646. Under a recent
Ipay-raise measure they were
brought up to $13,617. Under
the Senate Committee bill, these
employees would get $14,800.
Under another provision of
the Senate bill the allowance for
each Senator and the President
of the Senate, Vice President
Nixon, for airmail and special
delivery stamps would be in
creased from 5000, to $500 for
each ensuing fiscal year.
Another proposal of the SEN
ate committee is that employees
of the Republican and the Dem
oiratic eanatorial Campaign
Committees shall be covered
into the Civil Service Retire.
ment Act so far as their serv-
ice with the campaign COM
mittees is concerned.
The bill would place the gross
annual pay of legislative coun-
sci of the Senate at $14,800.
Repairs to Painting
The Senate was asked to ap-
prove $22,500 for repairs to the
large painting entitled "The
Battle of Lake Erie" hanging
on the wall of the east stairway
of the Senate wing of the Cap
itol. The painting was seriously
damaged last March.
The committee said the dam
age apparently was caused "by
some heavy object having been
thrown from a Senate Gallery
floor through the painting"
Funds recommended also in
clude sums for the provision of
two additional elevators in the
Senate wing of the Capitol and
for the air-conditioning of nine
rooms on the north terrace.

The Senate Appropriations
Committee, acting on the last
of the spending bills of this
Congress, today sent to the Sen
ate a 1929 million bill for the
legislative ranch, including
money for the extension of the
east front of the Capitol.
The committee, in agreement
with the House, recommended $5
million for the beginning of this
project-considered and debated
over a long period of years.
The project has two purposes.
One is to move the east front of
the central section of the build
ing to the east so that it no
longer would appear that the
dome of the Capitol would be
hanging over the main support
ing wall.
Extra Space Allowed
A second purpose, and per-
haps one with a big influence
on approval of the project, is
that the plans call for extra
committee space, storage vaults
and expanded restaurant facil-
tiles as part of the remodeling
program.
The measure, scheduled for
Senate action tomorrow, also
provides $8.5 million for contin-
uation of the construction of an
additional Senate Office building,
already under way. 1t also pro-
videS nearly 81 million for main
tenance, furniture furnishings
and equipment for the Senate
Office Building.
The Senate bill calls for an
outlay of $26.6 million higher
than the House bill. Most of
this increase is due. to the fact
that the House did not include
funds for the Senate side of the
Capitol.
Added Operations Fund
The Senate committee rec
commended enlarged funds for
Senate operations. including pay
raises for numerous Senate en-
ployes and committee staffers.
Among these are the Secre-
tary Of the Senate, the Senate
sergeant at arms and the ar
chitect Of the Capitol, whose
gross annual pay would be raised
to $17,500.
The Senate secretary and
sergeant-at-arms now are paid
$l3,400. The architect gets $l5,-
600.
There Is a pay raise also for
the Senate chaplain. His pay
would be raised from $2,946 to-
$4,000.
The bill also provides for an
increase in the allowance for
stationery for Senator's from
$1,000 a year to $1,000. In ad-
dition, the bill carries a brand
new provision to aid Senators
In financing their operations.
This would authorize the reim-
bursement of the cost of one
round-trip each fiscal year be-
tween Washington and the SEN
ator's residence in his home
State for not-to-exceed two en-
ployes in each Senator's office.

In Road-e-o TEST

Washington traffic, even with
the transit strike. is a snap to
81 teen ayers who W heele d
through an obstacle course at
the National Guard Armory to-
day.
The young drivers, from all 48
States, the District, Hawaii and
Canada, finished the road tests in
the National Teen-age Road-e-o
being held here this week. The
contest is being conducted by the
u. S. Junior Chamber of Com
merce, the American Trucking
Association and Liberty Mutual
Insurance Co. to promote better
teen-age drivers.
The contestants, who won
their trips here in contests
throughout the country, Hawaii
and Canada, put the cars
through the critical obstacle
COuISc WIFI case.
The course included driving
through lanes of rubber balls
placed four inches wider apart
than the automobile tires. The
drivers also maneuvered forward
and backward through a serpen-
tine course while judges watched
their technique.
The contestants, including one
girl, Peggy Jean Vowel, of New
Mexico. will hear the results of
the contest at a banquet at $50
pm. tomorrow at the Willard
Hotel.
One of the hardest problems
the teen-agers faced today was
driving into a simulated family
garage from an offset driveway.
The test was set up to determine
the youths ability to enter and
leave the garage under condi-
tionS of minimum clearance.
