tween customary scotches. he
gave no sign the end was SO
near.
But yesterday morning he
sank into a coma from which
he never revived. The end came
at 2:l0 am. with one final deep
sigh.
At his bedside was his wife,

And thus cancer killed off the
Academy Award-winning star.
His physician said it was a
spread of the original malignant
cy that brought on death. He
had undergone a long operation
last March.
Voice Not Affected
Unlike most victims of cancer
in the throat area. Mr.. Bogart S
voice was not affected. Until the
final coma, it was the same old
Bogart bark that made the actor
a favorite tough guy of the
movies.
Mr.. Bogart, though dying. had
been comfortable in his last days.
A recent operation had removed
some scar tissue on a nerve and
given him much relief.
Funeral arrangements, still not
complete. called for burial

Tee tnaL CIle CoI assign ltS own
employees to serve as executive
secretaries on each of the agency
civil service examining boards.
In its report last spring. the
House committee said that the
csc could keep greater control
over tine operation>of the agency
boards by having its own en-
ployeS in charge. At present the
agencies civil service examining
boards are manned by employees
of the individual agency. The
csc has no representatives on
the boards.
csc officials said that recently
they have come across glaring
examples of seine agencies in
ability to cope with examining
and recruitment problems.
Qualified Applicants Lost
There have been cases where
eminently qualified applicants
for important and critical Fed
leral positions such as engineer
ing. scientific and professional
Jobs have been turned down by
agency boards which do not
have the experience to eyaluate
them properly.
There have also been cases
where unqualified persons have
been hired for jobs.
Since Federal agencies through
their own examining boards per-
form about 80 per cent of the
examination and recruitment in
filling their JOBS, csc officials
are deeply concerned about the
situation. Only about 20 per
cent of Federal job exams are
conducted by the csc and these
are mostly for lower salaried
Jobs such as stenographers,
clerks. etc.
Little csc Supervision
The only controls which the
csc now has are the power to
reverse agency decisions on APP
peals from job applicants and
the authority to revoke the eX-

cases where civil service rules
and csc job standards are
llouted.

The Communists will take

|tary of State Dulles told the
Senate today.
Appearing as the first witness
fat joint hearings before the

Undecided on Action
The House Democrats may de-
eide whether to go along with
the Presidents request, or SUBJ
stitute nom binding resolution,
merely expressing the sentiment
of Congress.
Il can assure you that the
leaders of international COM
murism will take every risk that

made that clear.
When the stakes are so great,

throw into the struggle. That
is what the President has point
ed out in his special message to
the Congress. and l do not doubt
that the Congress will respond"
Armed Force Backed
Chairman Russell of the
Armed Services Committee indi-
Gated he would like to see Con-
gress pass quickly a resolution
authorizing the President to use
the armed forces in the Middle
East. but leave the economic aid
question for more careful study.
He asked Mr.. Dulles if the
State Department has given any
thought to helping the U. N. or
NATO to organize an army of in
ternational volunteers made up
OF young men who have escaped
from iron curtain countries.
He said force Of volunteers
would offset the so-callad volun-
teers the Communists talk of
using.
On the first suggestion, Mr..
Dulles insisted there is urgent
need for an economic aid pro-
vision in the resolution to give
the President more leeWay in
spending 5000 million of existing
foreign aid funds.
On the second proposal Mr..
Dulles said the State Depart
ment has given some thought to
such a volunteer force but has
not come to conclusion.

The new United States dis

only after an ironclad system of

Major points of the proposal
were.
/. That an agreement be

under international inspection.
.. That nuclear test explosions
be limited and later banned. if
