R.-Police had a mouth
full Of trouble yesterday
two claimants for one set Of
false teeth.
The upper set Of store

dentures, saying he had lost
them five years ago while
swimming. And his new
set Of "uppers" seemed to
match those found.
Now Henry Albert says the
teeth may be the ones he lost
while swimming three weeks
ago.

men to solve the problem.

whether to continue or terminate
aid to Tito.
The original Knowland-
Bridges motion was broad enough
to stop military aid out of either
past or new appropriations. But
Senator Saltonstall. Republican
of Massachusetts,, raised a point
of order, and the chair ruled that
past appropriations could not be
curtailed by amending this years
money bill.
Senator Knowland tried to get
around the point of order by
moving to suspend the rules, but
that required two-thirds. He
fell short of that mark with q
vote of SO to 33.
The California Republican
then modified his amendment to
make it a Limitation only on
use of the new money, which
was in order. This carried so to
AZ. Senator Knowland explained
that this amendment bans a
possible expenditure of $25 OF
$50 million for Yugoslavia
whereas the one. that was
blocked by the point of order
would have affected about 500
million Of equipment inthe pipe
line.

military or economic, to Tito's

The vote on final passage of
the bill was so to 80, with both

ing the bill were 80 Republicans
and 80 Democrats. Each party
also provided an equal number
of opposition votes.

|ConfereesMeet
On Foreign Aid
Figure Today
BY J. A. OLEARY

The long battle between the
House and Senate over this years
foreign aid fund may end today
or tomorrow with a compromise
figure Of about $3.8 billion.
The Senate last night passed
the bill carrying SAL billion
which was $685.. million more
than the House had allowed.
The difference must be adjust
ed by a joint conference COM
mittee this afternoon. They
usually meet half way on money
items. If the final agreement is
$S.8 billion it will be 81 billion
less than the administration re.
quested, but also 81 billion more
than last years appropriation.

Complaints were expected against
an admitted gag rule" imposed
by a Rules Committee unfriendly
to the program.
The House Rules Committee,
which acts as a legislative traffic
cop, has cleared housing for a
floor vote only under procedures
aimed at allowing passage of the
Widnall bill or none at all.
Among Last Big Bills
The legislation is one of the
last major bills of the session and
any slip in leadership strategy
to get the Widnall bill, or one
close to it, through both House
and Senate could mean an end
to palms for adjournment OF
Congress by Saturday.
Besides the disputed public
housing provision, the bill would
authorize money to continue q
number of other housing pro-
grams.
Other versions of omnibus
housing bills have been ID pro-
posed by Mr.. Eisenhower, (2)
passed by the Senate and 90
approved by the House Banking
Committee headed by Repre-
sentative Spence, Democrat OF
Kentucky.
The chief difference is over
public housing, with Mr.. Essen
hover proposing $4,000 units a
year for two years as in the
WidnaI bill, the Senate favorine
$4,000 units a year up to a total
Of 100000 plus $4,000 units espe-
cially for the elderly, and the
Spence bill calling for $4,000
units year for three years in
Guiding 10000 a year for older
folks.

barred any amendments to the
Spence bill except for Mr.. Wild
