treated for food poisoning
symptoms last night after a
barbecue near Orange, Va.
Eight ambulances and all of
the community's station wag-
ons were modified to rush the

Of the Orange Review, a weekly

and friends. Ambulances were
called to the farm y mile
north of Orange about 8 pm.
Five persons we're admitted
and an undetermined number

Hospital and two at the Mary
Washington Hospital in Fred
ericksburg. Forty-three were
treated and released at the
University of Virginia Hospital

ton.
Marshall Smith, chief of the
Orange County Rescue Squad,
said he was first notified when
two Orange High School foot
ball players collapsed during a
game with Madison High
School in Orange. Both had at
tended the barbecue.
Mr.. Smith said the victims
had cramps and nausea and
several tainted. He said doctors
tentatively diagnosed tn e
symptoms as food poisoning
probably caused by either po-
tato salad or roast pork.

The financial records of five
large banks and 20 of the larg-
est drug manufacturers have
been subpoenaed by the Senate
Antitrust Subcommittee. an aide
for the group said today.
John M. Blair, an economist
for the subcommittee, said the
records are sought because they
show various financial houses
own an appreciable share in two
or more competing drug firms.
He said Senator Kefauver,
Democrat Of Tennessee, chair
man of the subcommittee, plans
public hearings later in this
connection as part of an over
all Senate investigation into the
high costs Of prescription drugs.
Mr.. Blair said records of
drug company ownership had
been subpoenaed from three
large New York City banks
Chase Manhattan. B mixers
Trust and Morgan Guaranty
Trust. The names of two other
large banks will be identified
later, he said.
Other Records SubpOenaed
The economist said similar
records of ownership in large
drug manufacturing companies
also are under subpoena from
numerous investment houses
and mutual funds in New York
City and Massachusetts,.
He said the Securities and
Exchange Commission made
the ownership survey and the
subpoenaes were requested last
week. These are being issued
by United States attorneys and
marshals, he added.
Mr.. Blair said the subpoenaes
asked for all records on direc-
torships, patents, new drugs
and similar matters from both
the banks and investment
funds and the drug companies.

the additional banks and mu-
tual investment funds would
be made public later.
Hearings Open November 30
Senator Kefauver said yes
terday the public hearings will
begin here November 80 and
will deal first with complaints
by many older persons about
the cost of drugs used in the
treatment of arthritis. Later
hearings will cover prices of
antibiotics, hormones, diabetic
drugs and tranquilizers.
Senator Kefauver, chairman
Of a Senate Judiciary Anti
trust Subcommittee that has
been studying administered
.prices-those set by the man
ufacturer-said his group has
received more complaints about
the prices of drugs than all
other products put together.
No Money to Live On
There are more than 10
million people in the United
States today suffering from
rheumatic diseases, and / mil
lion of these are permanently
disabled" the Senator said in
a statement.
Many of the older persons
must live on social security
benefits. he said, and have
written that after paying for
the drugs prescribed for the
treatment of arthritis, they do
not have enough money to live
on.

COLOMBO, CeNon. Sept. 26
(AP).-Prime Minister Solo,
mon Bandaranaike died today
from an aSsassin's bullets-ap-
parent victim of the struggle
between Eastern and Western
ways which swept him into
power 312 years ago.
The frail-looking 60-year-old
champion of Asian neutralism
succumbed almost on the eve
of a visit to the United States,
which only a few months ago
he termed Asia's best friend.
Wijayananda Dahanayake, a
57-year-old politician from the
Bandaranaike cabinet, was
sworn in as the new prime
minister. Mr.. Dahanayake in
the past has ranged the politi-
cal spectrum from revolution
airy red to conservative blue. q
Flair for Dramatic
He is a bachelor and a po-
litical lone wolf with a fair
for the dramatic. He once
pulled a rickshaw to rush a
pregnant woman to a hospital.
Communists call him a baby

His most recent exploit was
to force the resignation of
Marxist ministers of food and
industries from the cabinet.
British-educated Bandaran-
alike failed to survice a FIVE

bullets which pierced his liver,

The Premier, who was ready,

The translator, Oleg Troya-
novsky, got it as:
"It's lucky Mr.. Garst isn't
here. He would try to organize
everything in his own way"
There were chuckles in the
small crowd in front Of the
lodge, in memory of the Iowa
farmer - Roswell Garst - who
threw corn husks at the press
and introduced Mr.. Khrushchey
to "just folks" in front of his
swimming pool.
Mr.. Eisenhower, with a quick
glance around. said:
Everything seems to be all
quiet along this front"
And Mr.. Khrushchev was
back with:
"All the soldiers are peace
fully inclined today"

Then, with Mr.. Eisenhower
stepping aside, Mr.. Khrushche1
ambled into the lodge as if he
had done it many times before
The President followed and the

CAMP DAVID. Md, Sept. 26.
Before President Eisenhower
and Premier Khrushchev and
their aides rolled up in their
black cars through the thick
trees and slanting sunlight,
there was a saturating calm
about the place.
The voices used were those
normally reserved for the in
side of a cathedral. Photog-
raphers did not jostle. Re-
porters who may have planned
a question about the size of the
Chairman's bed swallowed the
idea and politely inquired as to
the official description for the
color of Aspen Lodge. 1t turned
out to be "weathered" green.
The Marines on duty were
in fatigues. They wore pistols
and stood quietly in the woods
and on the paths.
Cabin Hardly Rustic
Aspen Lodge is hardly a rus
tic cabin. 1t resembles a ram
bier in a suburban development
where the trees have been saved.
In front there is a pool of
water. Goldfish swim lazily in
the pool in the shadow Of small
evergreen bushes planted
among the rocks.
Instead of wagon wheels or a
row of wooden ducks. there are
two heavy, white anchors rest
ing in the front yard-Camp
David is a naval installation on
the summit of a mountain.
There is no back yard be-
cause the lodge is built on the
edge of the mountain. The
view is a fine one, particularly
in September.

Yugos|avs Bid
For Visit by
Eisenhower
US. Diplomats Cool
To Idea, Fear Trip
Would RiIe Soviet
BY EARL II. VOSS
Star stan Writer

The Yugoslav government
has made approaches in Bel
grade and Washington suggest
ing a visit by President Eisen-
hover to Yugoslavia.
No decision has been made
by the White House, but the
prospects are Mr.. Eisenhower
will not accept the opportunity
new.
The thought is that the
President could 60 to Commu-
mist Yugoslavia either on his
way to the Soviet Union or on
the way back.
Since President Eisenhower's
triumphal visit to Western Eu-
rope and Vice President Nixon's
emotional reception in Poland,
various countries have indicated
their desire for a visit from the
President.
State Department desk off,
GERS have been forwarding sug-
gestions the President visit
their areas of responsibility.
Quite Keen on Idea
Mr.. Eisenhower. for his part,
has had his eyes opened by
the receptions he received in
Europe and is now reported to
be quite keen on doing as much
travelling as he can. One
POLLEN is that he cannot stay
away from Washington for too
long a time.
He would not be averse to
accepting several invitations he
has formerly declined, how
ever.
There are mixed feelings in
the administration about a
visit to Yugoslavia.
1t probably would not have
the same significance among
the people as Vice President
Nixon's tumultuous reception in
Poland. American relations to
Yugoslavia have been relatively
close for the past 10 years, so
that a warm popular welcome
could not be interpreted as any
implied criticism Of the gov
eminent.
In fact Yugoslav President
Tito could take advantage of
the visit as evidence that Presi-
dent Eisenhower supports his
regime.
DisIikes Dictatorial Rule
While the United States APP
plouds Marshal Tito's devia-
tons from the Kremlin line, it
deplores his Marxist philosophy
and dictatorial rule,
Perhaps the biggest obstacle
in the way Of an Eisenhower
visit to Yugoslavia would be
the outrage it would cause in

either before or after his tour
of the Soviet Union, would be
regarded by Moscow Commu-

Yugoslav officials have been
unusually open. however. about
their eagerness to have Mr..
Eisenhower come to their
country.

for the Yugoslav State Secre-
