housing bill.
Senate Democratic Leader
johnson declined to comment
on the change of strategy in
the Banking Committee, but
again predicted Congress will
pass a housing bill before it
adjourns.
If the Senate fails to mus
| ter the two-thirds majority re-
quired to override the veto,
that would dispose of the old
bill, and the committee could
still bring out the compromise
! measure. But if the Senate
should override, nothing could
be done on the new bill until
the House voted on the veto
message.
Senator Robertson expressed
doubt that enough House votes
could be obtained to override
the veto.
Voting Lineup
All of the eight votes to over
ride in the Banking Committee
were cast by Democrats. In
addition to Senators Fulbright
and Sparkman, they are Sena-
tors Frear of Delaware, Douglas
of Illinois, Clark of PennSyl-
vania, Proxmire of Wisconsin,
Williams of New Jersey and
Muskie of Maine.
Two Democrats - Senators
Robertson and Robert C. Byrd
of Byrd of West Virginia
joined these Republican Sena-
tors in voting against over
riding: Capehart of Indiana,
Bennett of Utah, Bush of Con-
necticut, Beall of Maryland
and Javits of New York.
The compromise bill, which
remains sidetracked in the full
committee, is still $240 million
more than the President rec
commended, but is 1925 million
under the bill he vetoed.
The big fight between the ad-
ministration and the Democrats
has been over urban renewal
and public housing. These
figures were compromised in
the new bill.

Herter Blast at Dictotors
Expected in Chilean Talks

SANTIAGO, Chile, Aug. IL
APC.-Secretary OF state
Christian A. Herter, flying here
today for the Inter-American
Conference Of Foreign Min
listers, was reported considering
making a strong declaration Of
United States opposition to die
tatorshipS.
Mr.. Herter was due late this
afternoon in the Chilean CAPT.
tai after a nights stopover
In Puerto Rico. Leaving Wash
ington, he said the conference
should take a candid look at
troubles plaguing the Carib-
bean area and adopt measures
to deal with them.
Puerto Rico's Gov. Luis
Munoz Marin, who talked with
Mr.. Herter in Washington
Sunday, said the Secretary
likely would make clear that
the United States does not
coddle dictators.
Numerous Latin Americans
have accused the United States
Of showing open favoritism to
such dictators as former Presi-
dent Fulgencio Batista of Cuba,
Marcos Perez Jimenez Of Vene-
Zuela. now an exile in Florida;
the Dominican Republics Ra-
fael Trujillo. and Nicaragua's
Luis Somoza.
Castro Won't Attend
Presumably any United States
declaration will be worded in
general terms with no names
called. Both Gen. Trujillo and
Gen. Somoza are still in office,
and any direct attack on them
would bring accusations of
United States interference in
domestic affairs of other ma
tons, as well as imperil rela-
tons between Washington and
the Dominican and Nicaraguan
governments.
One potential source Of fire.
works at the conference was
removed last night. Cuba's AM
bassador announced that Pre-
mier Fidel Castro would not
attend. Apparently Castro is
too busy at home, where his
government claims it has just
smashed a major plot by coun-
ter-revolutionaries.
The meeting was called after
q series Of invasions by political
exiles trying to overthrow the
Trujillo and Somoza regimes
and the Panamanian govern
ment. The invaders left from
Cuba for Panama and the
Dominican Republic. while
those against Gen. Somoza
came from Honduras and Costa
Rica. All were inspired by Mr..
Castro's example: A landing
with a handful of men, a long
guerrilla campaign meeting
with increasing success, and
ultimate victory.
Private Talks Slated
Mr.. Herter, first United
States Secretary of State ever
to visit Chile, was expected to
swing soon after his arrival

Opening lead: King Of hearts.
Suppose you are the declarer
in today's hand. You need ten
tricks for your contract. You
can easily take seven trumps
and two aces, for those nine
tricks are right on the surface.
Where is the tenth trick? It is
quite clear that the tenth trick
must be a heart since nothing
else can possibly become a
trick. If it isn't equally clear
how you can win a heart trick,
just spit on your hands and
get the pickax ready.
Don't Draw Trumps
One thing to note is that you
cannot afford to draw trumps.
When you have established a
heart trick you will want to
reach dummy to cash it. One
of dummy's trumps will be the
entry that permits you to reach
dummy for that purpose.
Ruff the opening lead with
a high trump. Lead a low
trump to dummy's eight and
return the jack Of hearts. East
plays low, naturally enough.
and you discard a low diamond.
West wins with the queen of
hearts and returns the queen
of diamonds. You win with
the ace Of diamonds and lead
a low trump to dummy's nine.
You. then lead the ten Of hearts
from dummy, discarding the
last diamond from your hand.
West wins with the ace Of
hearts and leads another dia-
mond. You ruff with a high
spade and lead your last low
spade to dummy's ten. This
puts you in dummy and en-
ables you to cash the nine of
hearts-your vital tenth trick.

MYSTERY UNSOLVE D
Missing Nine Years,
Virqinion Held Dead

The action declaring Mr..
JamiSon dead was based on his
disappearance and the fact
that no one has heard of or
from him since he left his
home in the Snow Creek Sec
ton of Franklin County the
night of December 1S, 1850.
Mr.. Jamison was eating sup
per when a car horn sounded
outside. He answered it and
never returned.
Mr.. JamiSon was 81 at the
time of his disappearance. He
is believed to have had a con-
siderable sum Of money on him
at the time as he had sold a
farm earlier that day.
Authorities have said they
are convinced Mr.. Jamison died
violently. The case has been
warmed over several times. The
latest development came in
August, 1857, when a telephone
caller told county authorities
the body was buried near Mr.
Jamison's home. A search OF
the area turned up nothing.

ANNAPOLIS (AP)-
Miss Louise E. Magruder,
turned down by the Court
of Appeals. is plotting
another round in her battle
over the filing place of old
land Office records here.
Miss Magruder, an An
napolis genealogist, says
she will ask the Board of
Public Works to remove
the old records from their
new location in the State
Office Building and return
them to the dehumidified
vault in the Hall of Rec

She has carried on a
personal fight since the
records were taken from
the Hall of Records last
year, and especially since
she found mold growing
on some of the bound VOL
umes in their new loca-
ton.
The Court of Appeals
ruled last Friday that the
Board of Public Works,
which ordered the transfer
Of the records, had the

Idea of Port
ForFuirfux
Held Costly

Fairfax County planners
last night outlined the posi-
bility of creating a deep-water
port and an industrial center
along Occoquan Greek in the
southeastern part Of the county
However, they said the cost
might be too high to be justi-
fed. Fairfax County has no
port facilities.
The staff of the County
Planning Commission men
toned q 492-acre tract in the
Belmont Bay area near Prince
William County as a possible
site for the project.
Herbert Schumann, deputy
planning director, advised that
the cost of dredging Occoouan
Greek to make it suitable for
navigation would exceed 81
million.
Construction of wharf and
warehousing facilities would
involve further heavy expendi-
lures.
The commission had asked
its staff to report on possible
port and industrial develop
ment in the area, which lies
just east of Route /.
In other business last night
the commission approved two
more industrial tracts for in
clusion in its Forthcoming
