technique Of treating mental pa
tients by putting them into a deep
sleep for as long as so days and
utilizing recordings TO restore
their confidence, was described
here yesterday by a Canadian
psychiatrist.

patient being put to sleep for
80 to so days. during which he
is awakened only long enough for
three meals a day and electric
shock treatments. said DR.. d
Even Cameron. chairman Of the
psychiatry department at McGill
University at Montreal.
Or. Cameron calls his new
sleep and verbal repetition
treatment psychic driving" g"--the
theory being that new and i'm
proved behavior patterns are
driven into a patient by repeat
ing recorded verbal signals.
The long nap is followed by a
powerful dose Of positive think
ing. The patient listens to a
record playing two or three af-
Iflrmative statements over and
over for is hours o day, perhaps
for a week.

Ethics Quiz
Will Be Held

AFL-CIO President George
Meany today rejected the objec-
tions Of Teamster President Dave
Beck to his suspension as a
member of the AFL-CIO Exccu-
tive Council.
In three letters replying to q
similar number of notes sent
him by Beck on April 10, Mr..
Meany curtly brushed aside the
IlegaliSms raised by the Teamster
chief in his efforts to remain in
the inner circle of American
trade unionism.
Gist of Letters
The gist of Beck's letters and
the giSt of Mr.. Meany's replies
follow:
l. On being notified of his
suspension. Beck appointed a
Ifive-man Teamster Union COM
mittee and asked the AFL-CIO
to name a similar group to dis
Icuss Beck's suspension. Mr..
Meany pointed out that Beck
was serving on the executive
council in a personal capacity
and had been suspended for
personal actions only. He said
he would ask the executive
council at its next meeting. be-
ginning May 20, whether it
wanted to accede to Becks re-
quest.
2. Beck attacked the execu-
tive councils action under pro-
visions of the AFL-CIO con-
stitution and said the council
lacked power or authority to
suspend him. Mr.. Meany fatty
rejected his point of view that
the council acted improperly and
added. The executive council
came to the conclusion that
certain actions on your part
very definitely endangered the
AFL-CIO itself and jeoparized
the best interests of the general
membership of the trade union
movement"
3. Beck questioned the basis
for a hearing set May s by the
AFL-CIO Ethical Practices Com
mittee to look into the affairs
OF the Teamsters Union. He
said the conclusion that the
union may be corruptly domi-
mated has not been supported
by specific charges" Mr.. Meany
replied that the action conforms
to the constitution of the AFL-
C1O and reminded Beck that the
Teamsters would have an oppor-
tunity to make its case before
the committee. THE Ethical
Practices Committee. however,
will process this case under the
constitutional mandate imposed.
upon it by the AFL-CIO regard
less Of whether or not the Team
sters Brotherhood avails itself
of the opportunity presented to
it on May 6. Mr.. Meany added.

chief, meanwhile. appeared head

BY GARNETT ID. HORVER
Star Stan CORRESPONDENT

AUGUSTA. Ga, April 20
President Eisenhower submitted
to Congress today his first re-
Organization plan Of 1857 which
would abolish the Reconstruction
Finance Corporation by June 80.
He also sent to the Senate the
formal nominations of half a
dozen ambassadors, including
that Of Llewellyn E. Thompson
as Ambassador to Russia. whose
selections he had announced
previously during his work-and-
play vacation here.
The President took these ac-
tions after making known that
he considers a $47.3 million cut
voted by the House in the State
Departments budget would be
harmful" to Americas conduct
of foreign affairs.
Launching a new phase of his
continuing battle with Congress
in behalf of administration pro-
grams he wants to protect from
the economy ak. he authorized
Secretary Of State Dulles to urge
the Senate Appropriations Com
mittee tomorrow to restore most
of the $227.7 million he asked
/ in his January budget message
for the State Department.
Sees Some Savings
While the RFC has been in
process Of liquidation for several
years, the President said final
abolition Of the agency would
save some expense which it was
not practicable to estimate at
this time.
THE size of the corporations
portfolio has diminished to such
IA point" he said in a message
to the Senate and House, that
after June 30 it should not be
necessary to maintain a separate
agency solely for the purpose of
administering its remaining
assets.
THE plan will make possible
a more economical administra-
ton Of the corporations func-
.tions by obviating the expense
incident to maintaining a sepa-
rate organization"
Functions Are Similar

transferred certain RFc func-
Itions to the export-import bank,

ton and the Federal National
Mortgage Association.

Russians were threatening and
NATO was weak as baby. OF
the Russians were smiling and
seemed ready TO fall
apart. Last December's meeting
had a special note of urgency
as the cornerstone nations of
NATO had just had a serious
falling out over Suez, and the
world wondered If the North At
lantic Alliance had been wrecked.
Now. however, the Foreign
Ministers. including Mr.. Dulles
for the United States, are goine
to Bonn almost as calmly as q
group Of successful corporation
heads go to their board of di-
rectors meeting. NATO still has

able today of snatching all the

petual panic. things are un-

that this meeting would have

the Senator is suffering from
acute hepatitis. an Inflammation
of the liver.
Senator Mccarthy entered the
hospital yesterday. He is re-
ported to have been in i'll health
for several weeks.
His attendance at the Senate
has been rare in recent days.
He attended several sessions Of
the Select Committee investigat-
ing labor practices. where many
observers noted his lack of vigor.
Opposed Zwicker Promotion
One of his most recent ap-
pearances on the Senate floor
was to oppose the promotion of
Ralph w. Zwicker to major gen.
eral. Gen. zwicker figured prom
inently in the investigations of
Senator McCarthy's Internal Sc
curity Subcommittee in 1854.
Before the hospital confirmed
the fact that the Senator is suf-
fering from hepatitis, Mrs. Nc
Carthy told The Star that the
Senator had entered the hospital
for treatment of an old knee
injury. The Senator has said
that a piece of steel lodged in his
knee during the war while he
was in the Marine Corps.

The ailment has sent him to

two years.

Apparently the young mon

up any crack the Syrian and

for diplomatic relations with the
Soviet Union. The young ruler
has blamed his country's current
troubles on international COM

aganda. and security forcess
have been busy rounding up
Communist elements.
Almost a holiday mood pre-
vailed in Amman as the curfew
was lifted for eight hours, the
longest out-of-doors period since
the restriction and martial law
were ordered last Thursday. The
government announced the cur
