around, he quickly pushed aside
Susan X. Price, 10, of 1320t
Superior rd. who was thrown
to the ground. She was taken
to the hospital later for X
rays which were reported
negative.
Lee was also treated at the
hospital and released.
Mr.. Rondini was well known
here where he operated 4 res
taurant with three sons, Pino
(Leo), Oreste and John. He
was fond of hunting and had
travelled in the States and
Canada in quest Of large game.
In addition to his sons, he
leaves his widow, Mary, and
three daughters, Mrs. Sylvio

Tambascio and Mrs. Leonard
Mattano; and a sister, Mrs.
John Caminati. Services were
held in St. Margaret Mary

in between these surfaces is q
mass of dirt with some wooden
blocks here and there, in which
the ants are working. And we
mean working.
The ants were shipped in a
vial from California after the
frame had arrived. They were
poured into it through a fun
mel at one corner Of the frame,
and they saw the dirt, and they
went to work on it.
Ant work seems to consist
of carrying grains of dirt from
one place to another. In this
process they create two kinds
of constructions at once: tun-
nels, where the dirt comes
from, and hills, where it is
carried to. The tunnels are now
beginning to be evident in the
Ant Palace, veining through
the dirt mass just beyond the
panes of glass; though none
has yet broken through to the
inside edge of the glass, so
that the ants workings can be
studied.
The children feed the ants
ant food, by pouring it in
through the funnel. What is
ant food? Well. almost any,
thing that is ant size; tiny
grains of hamburger or fish,
bird seed, small crumbs, any,
thing like that. The soil is kept
moistened, too, both to provide
the ants with drinking water
and to keep the dirt workable.
We said moment ago that
the ants went right to work as
soon as they came in from
California; but they didn't,
really-not right away. They
Law dormant for a while. Mr..
DeFiore and his pupils were
afraid that they didn't have any
queen with them; because if
ants don't have a queen along,
they won't work. But soon the
little fellows began emerging
from the pile of earth carry
mandibles, and they haven't
stopped since.

Kefouver's Loments

Senator Kefauver laments
the profits and prices in in
dustry, and Just recently he
lamented on TV the admin
istered increases in prices in
the steel industry. The root
Of mis- lamenting in this in
stance was that such price
increases would bring infls-
ton and thus slow the busi-
ness recovery.
Personally I have never
heard Mr.. Kefauver lament
ing wage increases, which are
certainly administered by the
unions, yet / assume that he
knows that wages have some
thing to do with price levels.
He may also know that def
icit spending is most likely
to result in printing-press
money, one of the great
causes of imitation. These
thoughts lead me to ask what
is Senator Kefauver's voting
record on spending Govern
ment funds. Being a liberal
Dem ocrat. l suspect his
spending record shows a GER
tain amount of liberality with
such Government funds.

about 1900 acres OF green parkland
IN the eastern part OF the county.
The need for such a plan was
brought TO public attention recently
when the Maryland Suburban Sanitary
Commission prepared 70 run q trunk
sewer lire through the valley. OPPOSE
ton Of Planning Director william c.
Burrage OF the NCPPC TO the sewer
project as premature" led the Sanitary
Commission TO shelve the undertaking
for the present. However, the Planning
Commission, as a body, has approved the
sewer line In principle.
II Is generally agreed that even
tually the trunk sewer will be needed In
that area. But 10 build II now, before
an overall plan for residential and park
development Of the basin Is In existence,
might lead TO undesirable construction
that would be matter Of official regret
In later years.

TeIeyise Woterqote?

On July 81. q relative
dropped by to take me to the
Watergate to listen to the
first program ever offered by
the joint services. Having
been confined to the home
premises for months by ILL
ness. I was glad to 60. OF
course. there was also the old
urge that came from years Of
association with military
bands. Bands we're always
part Of my life. Some 80 years
ago / received an honorary
life membership from a fra
ternal organization for direc-
ton Of its band.
But alas. only the people at
the Watsrgate - and there
were thousands - heard this
performance. Why can't we
afford q few thousand dollars
once q week, or even once q
month, to send such programs
to the rest Of the United
States over television? We
have the facilities. even to
the extent Of being able to re-
produce the performance in
color. Is it too much to ask
that we make use of them?

Atom and Geneva

Twenty-one countries, including the
Soviet Union, now have begun to get
ready in Geneva, Switzerland, for the
Second International Conference on the
Peaceful Uses Of Atomic Energy. Like its
predecessor, which was held in August of
1855, this two-week gathering Of savantS
will take place under the auspices of the
United Nations, and 1t will seek to ex-
pand and speed up worldwide co-opera-
tion-on both sides Of the Iron Curtain
to harness nuclear power for beneflcent
nonmilitary purposes.
Scheduled to open on September /,
the conference will find the United
States especially eager to make as large
contribution as possible. Our exhibit,
occupying more than $4,000 square feet
Of space, will be by far the biggest and
made more impressive still through the
reading and release Of great number
of American scientific and technical pa
pers These papers, as well as the visual
displays, will have to do with a wide
range Of fields in which the application
Of nuclear energy promises to shower i'm
menSe blessings on the whole Of man
kind. The fields include physics, chem
istry, health, agriculture and industrial
power generated by either atomic fiSsion
or the fusion process of the hydrogen
bomb.
1t is fitting, certainly, that our Gov
eminent is thus taking pains to insure
that the American role at the conference
will be particularly outstanding. After
all, the United States is rightly regarded
around the world as the originator and
prime mover Of the atomS-for- peace pro-
gram, and our contribution should there
fore be as big as we can make 1t. This
Is true not so much because it will tend
to give us a propaganda advantage over
the Soviet Union, but primarily because
1t can be Of vital Importance in helping
to head OF the kind of war in which nu-
clear power could literally obliterate
man before man had chance to control
1t as his servant.

Mideost Plan

Nikita Khrushchev Is still ticking his
missiles and pounding out the same old
propaganda line-that American and
British troops In Lebanon and Jordan
threaten the peace and that their with
drawal should be the No. order Of busi-
ness In the special session of the General
Assembly, which reopens on Wednesday.
The whole world must know by now,
however, that the troops are not threat
ening the peace and that their with
drawal will not solve the problems Of the
Middle East or remove the danger Of
war which undoubtedly turks there.
A great deal more than troop with
drawal will be needed. And Secretary
General Dag Hammarskjold, in our opin-
ion, has sketched the outline of what
must be done. In brief, he proposes that
the Arab countries stop trying to under
mine each other, that they work together
on vital projects, and that the big powers
stop meddling in Arab politics and, in
stead, help the Mideast countries eco
nomically. The troops, Of course, must
be withdrawn as soon as conditions per-
NIT, or whenever their withdrawal is
requested by the governments concerned.
But II any good Is to come out of the
General Assembly session something
along the line Of Mr.. Hammarskjold's
proposal must be approved and put into
effect. The United States is working on
constructive" plan, and we hope 1t
will cover the essential ground.
There is one more useful thing
that might be done. Robert Murphy, the
Presidents special emissary, was in
Cairo last week to see COL Nasser. There
was a 10-hour delay in arranging the
meeting, and this evoked a rash of ex-
cited comment to the effect that Col.
Nasser had deliberately "snubbed" Mr..
Murphy. This is denied by Cairo, 1t is
denied by Mr.. Murphy and it is denied
by the State Department. But, as is al
ways the case, the "snub" received the
big headlines and the denialS were buried
In the news columns. The useful thing
that might be done Is to exercise little
more care and restraint in reporting
matters which tend to inflame rather
than to calm already overheated emo
tons.

Integroted Bar

I read with interest the
recent letter in The Star
suggesting an integrated bar
statute here as q solution to
the problem of membership
Of Negro lawyers in the
D. c. Bar Association. I am
q member of two State bars
in the South. one integrated.
Where State bar indignation
prevails. the only qualif1ca-
ton for membership is the
license to practice law in
that State. coupled with pay
ment of annual dues. The
power of discipline is lodged
in the highest court of that
State. A bar association is
not a social organization. 1t
Is primarily a professional
society and as such the color
of a mans skin should not
disqualify him from holding
membership in it.

Hemingwoy's Suit

A lot Of people In the writing game
will understand why Ernest Hemingway
has filed suit to prevent Esquire maya
zine from republishing some Of his old
stories about the Spanish Civil War.
Back in those days. two decades ago, he
was strong supporter of the Loyalists
against GeneralisSimo Franco, and the
stories in question reflected his Senti-
ment Of that period. But now, even
though he still adheres to that senti-
ment, he apparently wishes he had
written them in different way. Any
how, he doesn't want to see them in
makes him not unlike numerous lesser
writer's who are embarrassed when con-
fronted with certain Of their past works
that look slightly unpublished or naive
In retrospect.
Thus, speaking through his lawyers
brief, in a style not nearly so good as
his own, Mr.. Hemingway has had this
to say: 1T is respectfully submitted,
and the court well knows, that the pas
sage Of time can affect the writings Of
authors either favorably or unfavorably.
illustrative Is the change In attitude
Of people to writings of men during the
time Russia was our ally, to the present
attitude Of people to such men and their
writings now that Russia is perhaps our
greatest enemy" This Is pretty turgid
prose-prose which the Old Master OBJ
viouSly had nothing to do with, and
which he has diSavowed as q distortion
Of his own views-but 1t still makes its
poignant point. Quite plainly, like many
another literary fellow, Mr.. Hemingway
feels he has q right to revise some Of
his earlier pieces in q way designed to
make sure that they will never return
to haunt him.
However, even though Esquire has
bowed to his suit, Mr.. Hemingway must
reconcile himself to the fact that 1t is
not really possible for him, especially
because of his stature, to stop the work
of those who will keep on trying to
compile and publish everything he has
ever said or written. His position in that
respect is well summed up in the follow
ing lines from an old American verSifer:
Careful nth ire" is good Gduice Ws
knoiD;
Careful NTH ,Dords." Is ten times
doubly So
Thoughts unerpressed may some
times tall back dead:
But God Himself can't kill them

Theoter Manners

I was dismayed at the bad
manners Of a large group Of
Washingtonians at the Car
ter Barron Theater the other
night. The show, Most
Happy Fella" began promptly
at $3.50, but 1t took approx
mately 20 minutes for about
one-third of the crowd to
arrive! These late-comers
almost will bout exception
came in talking loudly. and
between the constant parad-
ing Of people down the aisles
and into the different sec
tons and their conversation.
1t was impossible to get into
the spirit Of the play. Despite
the fact that smoking is per-
Missile in an outdoor situa-
ton, it is gross bad manners
to inflict smoke into other
peoples faces. This, too, was
disagreeable. Then, when the
rain fell. many people were
so noisy getting settled and
wondering whether the play
would 60 on, that more Of
the songs were missed.
One wonders also with such
an extravagant enterprise
why a canvas topping for the
stage isn't part of the stand
ard equipment. The play was
30 delightful, despite the
annoyance. that practically
all Of the audience was ready
to sit throughout the rain If
the stage had been protected
and the performance could
have gone on.

Timely Mall Revival

The revival by the National Capital
Planning Commission of the long -dor-
mant East Capitol Mall plan Is timely
In more ways than one. In the first
place, It offers Federal oficials q new
approach to solution Of their building
site problems, which have increased In
magnitude a. space for Government
agencies In Washington has diminished.
In the second place, the mall plan hts
In perfectly with coincidental develop
ment Of the armory- stadium area near
the new East Capitol street bridge. The
proposed mall not only would be lined
with public buildings but would be tied
in with trafic arteries serving the bridge,
the Armory and the new stadium.
There Is nothing new about the East
Capitol Mall idea, Of course. Planning
Commission charts for many years have
shown such q monumental plaza ex-
tending from the Capitol eastward to
the Anacostia River. The eastern Mall
would be a counterpart Of the present
Mall to the west Of the Capitol-al-
though with less green park area. sites
would be reserved along both sides Of
1t for future Federal ONCE structures.
Harland Bartholomew, chairman Of the
Planning Commission, believes that the
availability Of such sites would tend to
halt the trend toward the suburbs evil
denced in such recent moves as those by
the Central Intelligence Agency and the
Atomic Energy Commission. "Scattera-
ton" is the word aptly used by Mr..
Bartholomew to describe this unfortu-
nate trend.
In order to give the East Capitol
Mall plan legal status, the Planning
Commission has requested Congress to
pass legislation authorizing the develop
ment in general outline and designating
the boundaries Of the mall. The COM
mission has no immediate plans for
buying land or starting work on such a
project. 1t is rightly concerned, how
ever, over the possibility that private
developers may beat the Government
to the scene and thus make eventual
acquisition of the land prohibitively
expensive. There has been little pri-
vate development of the area in recent
years-perhaps because of long-Standing
knowledge of the planners desire to
control land use there.
It would be unfair to landowners,
however, to leave the East Capitol Mall
project suspended in air indefinitely.
There is obviously no time at this ses-
sion of Congress to give proper conSid-
Grafton to the planners proposal, but
the next session ought to give the pro-
gram careful attention. For the sooner
the necessary land is reserved for Fed
eral and municipal use, the less the cost
of the undertaking. In any event, the
East Capitol Mall is long-range prof.
ect, the appropriations for which would
be spread over number Of years.

after considerable research
that working mothers are the
best homemakers are based
on questionable premises.
