Egyption Paper
Criticizes Dulles

CAIRO, Aug. II up. - The
Egyptian press today critized
Secretary of State Dulles for
telling a House Appropriations
subcommittee he doesn't care
whether the United States
makes friends or not.
Dulles is doing his country
more harm by such statements
than her enemies ever could"
said the newspaper Al Akhbar
yesterday.
In June 10 testimony re-
leased Saturday, Mr.. Dulles
said in part:
Not for one minute do 1
think the purpose of the State
Department is to make friends
whether we make friends.
l do not care"
He added that it would be a
problem for a later Secretary
II some loans being made now
to foreign countries cause hard
feelings later when they can
not be repaid. IF the making
of these loans saves a country
from communism. a people, an
area. the loss of which to COM
muniSm would be bad for the
United States. I do not care
whether they like US or hate
u.s."
AL Akhbar said. Dulles could
look out for United States in
terests, but why do that with
out consideration of the friend
ship or enmity of other
people?"

AT Cannes Casino

CANNES, France, Aug. IL
OPT can happen. They broke
the bank at the Palm Beach
Casino at Cannes-then one
winner went on to Monte Carlo
and lost all of his gambling
gains.
The winners, according to
people who are as near being
official as you can get in a case
Of this kind, included film pro-
ducers Jack Warner and Daryl
Zanuck, a New York jeweler.
Bobby Barnet, and a Brazilian
coffee king named Marvin,
whose first name is not known
here.
All the principals named in
the story circulating here re-
fused to talk about it.
The Casino is still going, with
the lesser games in full play,
but the big no-limit game of
baccarat, where the heavy
money is played. closed last
Thursday night after losing $40
million francs. That is S971 ,427
at the official rate of $50
francs to the dollar.
There are no official figures
they are never given out at
casinos. But the informants
said Mr.. Warner was the big
winner with 40 million francs,
or $114.285. When the bank
closed. Mr.. Warner went over
to Monte Carlo ana was re-
ported to have lost every franc
he had won at the Palm Beach.
Mr.. Zanuck is reported to
have won 20 million francs. or
$57, 942. and evidently still has
most of it.
Mr.. Barnet also won 20 mil
lion.
Another big winner was the
Brazilian planter described in
Casino circles as the king of
coffee in Brazil. The amount
he won was not learned.

Director Albert M. Cole of

construction to level off at
about a million units a year.
He reports a total of IL mil
lion houses were built last year

pectancy in the housing market
would probably be a million
or slightly under each year."
Mr.. Cole said in an interview
filmed for broadcast over

television stations.
He said for the year 1858 he
expected the Federal National
Mortgage Association would
buy upwards of 5000 million
worth of mortgages"
In the last five years, Mr..

spent over SIS billion in new.
non-farm construction.

give control Of the schools d.
rectly to the Board Of Com
missioners. This prompted
another series of bitter floor
fights in which the Texan was
warned against attempts to
bluff and hulldoze District
teachers"
Some political observers be-
lieve Mr.. Blanton's eventual
downfall came because his
switch from an about ex-
coriating attack on his op-
ponents, to one of citing his
own record.
Lost Out to COnnally
They recalled that once be-
fore he had abandoned his
usual tactics, and had lost out
in a bid for the Senate. This
was in 1923, when Tom Con-
nally beat him out for the seat
then held by Earl B. Mayfield.
In other campaigns Mr.. Blan-
ton had built up a strong case
against each opponent, often
inserting material in the Con-
greSsional Record and then dis
tributing 1t to residents in his
district.
Although M. Blanton gen.
orally voted for President
Roosevelt's New Deal program.
and this was popular in his
home district. he was never
able to capitalize on it in his
primary one-party runoff.
In 1921, the loquacious Mr..
Blanton was a target in what
was termed by newspapers as
THE widest session in years."
The Texan was turned on by
all members.
Summers Left Sickbed
Representative Summers of
Texas left his sickbed to lead
the attack on his colleague.
The uproad was over a letter
Mr.. Blanton wrote to Texas
newspapers charging members
Of Congress with a concerted
plan to raid the Treasury and
obtain salary increases. which
he alone had prevented here
tofore.
Mr.. Summers shook his fist
in Mr.. Blanton's face and
shouted: And when you sent
that statement to Texas you
knew 1t was as false as HE'LL"
Then the House broke into wild
shouts with half the member
ship rising. Mr.. Blanton was
howled down when he rose to
speak. The attack was the cul-
mination Of many made before
by members who charged that
Mr.. Blanton was continually
blocking legislation by points
Of order.
The censure resolution fol-
lowed.
Stayed In d. c. to Practice
Mr.. Blanton was born in
Houston and was graduated in
law from the University of
Texas. He practiced law in
Cleburne. Tex. and Albany.
Tex. and then was elected
judge Of the And judicial dis
trict of Texas.
Mr.. Blanton practiced law in
Washington in 1887 and 1888
after he was defeated for re-
election to the House. At that
time he stated: I'm leaving
ONCE to become q citizen and
lawyer Of the District, I feel
that I have suffered no loss.
My unpleasant duty as legis-
lator will then no longer con-
fiict with my love Of the City
Of Washington"
Later. however, Mr.. Blanton
returned to Albany, where he
practiced law and also engaged
in ranching. He had been con-
fined to his home since COM
pleting a law case Just Isl
weeks ago.
Survivors include his widow:
four sons and a daughter.
Funeral services were to be
held today at the Matthews
Memorial Presbyterian Church

Fighting Congressman

why was the death rate so
high?"
When doctors indicated that
Mr.. Blanton had made IAN
asinine statement" the Texan
demanded an apology Then
he demanded that the doctors
not gang up on him. "IIl take
on any one Of you doctors If
you'll step behind this stage, Z"
he yelled. There were no takers.
A Washington rabbi stepped
in and quoted the group.
Charged Ignoring Of Law
Another time. Mr.. Blanton
accused the District tax as
SCISSOR Of ignoring a law re-
quiring 100 per cent fair-value
assessments on real property.
The representative was trying
to justify a So million cut made
by his committee and the
House in the Federal payment
to the District.
In 1921, Mr.. Blanton was
saved from being thrown out
of the House of Representatives
by bare margin Of eight votes.
He was publicly reprimanded
by Speaker Gillette in accord
ance with a resolution of CEN
sure. against which no man
cast a single vote.
In an experience that sell
dom comes during the life of
a man in Congress, Mr.. Blan-
ton fought for 80 minutes in
the face Of hostile eyes to de.
fend himself from the charge
that he had transgressed the
law by putting into the Con-
greSsional Record a document
described as "unspeakably
vile"
Language Of Censure
A newspaper clipping at that
time quotes Speaker Gillette as
saying to Mr.. Blanton: II have
been directed to censure you
because you had been allowed
by the courtesy of the House to
print a speech which you did
not deliver upon the floor, you
inserted in it foul and obscene
which you knew you
could not have delivered on the
floor. and that disgusting mat
ter which could not have been
circulated through the mail in
any other paper without a
crime, was transmitted to
thousands of homes and Ii
braries throughout the coun-
try :"
Mr.. Blanton's defeat in the
18th District run-off in 1885
was called the greatest upset
IN a generation. The fiery
Texan had been in Congress
continuously since 1917.
Political dopeSters tried to
put a finger on cause of the up-
set and deciced 1t was due to
enmities incurred by Mr.. Blan-
ton during his two decades in
office.
The vets called it the de-
Feat OF a die-hard prohibi-
zionist, others said it was an
expression of indignation at
his attempts to penalize vote
less taxpayers Of the District.
and a rebuke to his efforts to
stitie District appropriations
bills with so-called 'red-riders"
demanding that teachers sign
anti Communist oaths.
Tangled With Zloncheck
In a heated discussion of the
latter provision, Mr.. Blanton
once almost came to blows with
another celebrated representa-
tive. Marion Zioncheck of
Washington. They stood toe
to-toe on the House floor after
Mr.. Zioncheck demanded a
retraction Of Mr.. Blanton's
charge that the other must
have been doped when the
rider was adopted in 1886"
The rider eventually was
knocked out. but Mr.. Blanton
was back the next term still
agitating with a bill to abolish
the Board of Education and
