GIVE YOUR HOME
A RAINCOAT

~ . (
Tight construction and a GOOD
coat Of paint used to be consider
ed the best protection against
weather damage to wood used in
buildings. But these frequently
prove inadequate, as anyone knows
who has struggled with problems
of blistered paint and rotting
wood on the exterior of his house,
Now an extra "raincoat" is avail
able. It's a water-repellent wood
preservative.
This preservative, according to
Hyde County Assistant Farm
Agent Dan E. Baucom, is penta-
chlorophenol, often referred to
simply as "penta." This can be
purchased under various trade
names, already mixed in a water
repellent solution, or as concen-
trate to be mixed according to di-
rections given on the label.
Tests carried out show that
wood siding readily absorbs mois-
ture when it is subjected to a driv-
ing rain or water running down
over it. Due to capillary action
the tendency of a liquid in con-
tact with a solid to flow upward
raindrops actually climb up unde,
the siding.
On a newly painted house 9
paint film may stop this action
but the slightest crevice permits
the joints to soak up water like 9
sponge. When this happens paint
blisters or, as the water drips out
the same way it entered, it leaves
streaky stains from wood, build
ing paper or rusty nails.
In replacing rotted siding, soal
or dip the new wood in a pents
solution, suggests Mr.. Baucom. o.

Under the terms set forth by
Egypt. freedom of navigation in the
canal would be guaranteed to ships

interprets that agreement to per-

The Egyptian declaration offers

Tox-Cut Drive:
G. O. P. Support

The fast-developing congressional
drive for tax reduction. set of Is
days ago by House Speaker Sam
Rayburn, has attracted enough
support across the aisle to give
it more the color of a promise than
a hint.
Last week House Republican
Leader Joseph w. Martin, jr., and
Senate Minority Leader William
F. Knowland held out strong hopes
for an easing of the tax burden.
Mr.. Martin. saying that he expected
some of the Eisenhower programs
to be put of until later. predicted
that budget cuts would lead to tax
reduction next year. Senator Know
land said that If Congress could
trim So billion from President
Eisenhower's budget, a IS billion
surplus would result which could
be used both to reduce taxes and
pay of some more of the $274.5
billion public debt.
Mr.. Eisenhower has rejected any
substantial cutbacks in spending
and has said that his $7l.8-billion
budget could not take a reduction
of as much as So billion.
There were signs, meanwhile,
that the 1857 budget, under which
the Government is now operating,
was closer to red ink than had
been anticipated. Rising defense
costs were blamed for an increase in
spending which might cut the
surplus for the fiscal year ending
June 80 below the expected SIT
billion.
Meanwhile, the Bureau of Labor
Statistics came up with its routine
monthly announcement that the
cost Of living had inched upward
for the seventh consecutive month.
The index. still at a record high,
rose two-tenths Of a per cent to
1889. figured on a l947-9 base Of
100. The bureau held out no hope
for reversal anytime soon in the
upward price spiral.

assertions. It is argued, for ex.

danger.
Further. DR.. Lbby's position Is
based upon the continuation Of
tests at the present rdte-a rate

SEND THEM BACK?

GASKILL

VIENNA. - The Hungarians say
grimly the reason the Russians at
tackled Budapest at 4:30 am. last
November was that they hoped,
at such an hour. to catch the chill

The children Of Hungary. once
such a scourge TO Soviet tanks and
troops, are now a different kind of
problem-for the West.

mission for Refugees. "They fought

he was a real freedom fighter,

Judgment?
Perfect Seore-So Far
So far. Austria has managed
not to send back one single child,
against his will. Austria's polite,
yet determined, sparring began at

ago. including officials from Austria,
from Red Hungary and from the

The Communists argued the

a parents word is law, and If
parents who are Hungarian refugees
In Austria want their children who
are still in Hungary. presumably you
would be willing to send those
children out?"
The Hungarian delegation said
they'd have TO take this up in Buda-
pest. and the meeting adjourned.
Two weeks later, Budapest agreed
or said 1t did. 1t promised 1t
would let out Of Hungary any chill
dren under IA that fathers, now
refugees in Austria. would apply
for. Hundreds rushed to apply.
They are still waiting. More than
two months have elapsed, and the
Red Hungarians have welshed on
the deal. So far they have not let
a single child out Of Hungary on
these terms. Thus Austria and the
U. N. can say that until Hungary
carries out its part of the bargain
they won't compel any child Of any
age to 60 back against his will.

on this liberation" theme. The

that the American conscience can

Dulles were drawn into explaining
that their position did not carry

Last week, the liberation idea

Mr.. Dulles seemed to think the
evolution he referred to was taking
place. He told of increasing Com

freedom within the Soviet Union

the satellites which has forced an
unwelcome accommodation upon
the Kremlin; the doctrinal difficult
ties Of international communism
which has resulted in widespread
disaffection.

Mr.. Dulles. Leading circles OF the

the proletariat upon other nations.
They deplored the fact that the
Secretary missed the opportunity

words that were openly aggressive"
Although Mr.. Dulles may have
been directing the liberation" re-
marks to those leading circles of
the Soviet Union" he also had a
few words for the United States
Congress in his speech. He made
a fervent plea for foreign aid.
