nelo that the urban plan, de-
signed primarily to protect the
county from further annexa-
tons. could not be used for that
purpose.
"We might Just as well drop
the whole idea and try some
thing else" Mr.. DeBell said to-
day.
Conflicting response came
from the man who originally
drafted the urban county plan.
Don Larson, special consultant
TO the county supervisors, chal-
lenged Mr.. Harrison's ruling
and said Fairfax should accel-
crate efforts to obtain urban
government.
"City" Plan Eyed
Mrs. Anne wilkins, vice
chairman Of the board of
county supervisors, said the
ruling makes the urban plan
less interesting and appears to
enhance the idea Of incorporat-
ing the county into a city.
THE teeth Of the plan are
gone" Mr.. DeBell declared
1--WE must now look to other
ideas and run them down."
Included, Mr.. DeBell said
should be Assistant Attorney
General Kenneth c. Patty's
suggestion that Fairfax seek
State legislation looking toward
a general law banning annexa-
tons. Mr.. Patty said such q
law probably would be consid-
cred reasonable and would be
similar to legislation now in ef-
feet for Arlington County. Ar
lington can be annexed in its
entirety, but not in part,
Mr.. Harrison's ruling came in
reply to four questions SUBJ
mitted to him by Fairfax Dele
gate John C. Webb on behalf
of the Commission on Urban
County Government. The COM
mission had proposed the urban
county plan as the best pos
sible way to prevent what 1t
called land grabs" by cities
and towns located in or near
the county.
Both Alexandria and Falls
Church announced this week
that they are studying an
nexation proposals. The most
recent annexations were by
Vienna and the Town Of Fair
fax Primarily, the urban plan
was supposed to offer the
county protection from annex
alton by towns within its
boundaries. although there has
been speculation that this
might be extended to annexa-
ton by cities.
Lack Of Protection
Attorney General Harrison
advised Mr.. Webb that use of
the urban plan would not, IN
his opinion. protect the county
from annexations. While the
county is free to adopt a new
form of government, he said,
passage of such a plan would
not in itself outlaw annexa-
lions.

tending a meeting Of the Vir-

1.-THE attorney general has
been overruled before and this
is the time to push for the ulti
mate in this area and let the
courts decide.

Aiken Raises
Oil, Gas Issue
Over Strauss
~ the Associated Press


What he called efforts by the
oil and gas industry to win
Senate confirmation for Lewis
l.. Strauss were labeled disturb
ing yesterday by Senator Aiken,
Republican OF Vermont.
Senator Aiken said in an
interview that he still is in
clined to vote for confirmation
OF Mr.. Strauss nomination to
be Secretary Of Commerce. But
he said i've got to be assured
that his nomination is not
part and parcel Of campaign
to force New England to pay
higher fuel prices"
when see the coal and oil
industry working as hard as
possible to get the nomination
confirmed" he said, 1T is very
disturbing to me-"
Protested In Senate
Last March, after President
Eisenhower ordered mandatory
curbs placed on oil imports.
Senator Aiken protested in the
Senate that the action would
force increase in the price Of
fuel oil and add to the cost of
living.
He also was among a group
Of New England Senators who
wrote to Mr.. Eisenhower prior
to the issuance of the order
opposing proposals for further
restricting imports Of crude oil
and residual fuel oil.
Mr.. Eisenhower acted on the
recommendation Of defense
mobilization authorities and a
special Cabinet committee
headed by Mr.. Strauss, who has
been serving as Secretary Of
Commerce since last Novem-
Der under an appointment
made while Congress was in
recess.
The frightened curbs on i'm
ports had been urged by the
domestic oil and coal industry
as vital to national defense.
Senate G. o. p. leaders have
been counting on virtually
solid support from the "a Re-
publican Senator's in the battle
over Mr.. Strauss nomination,
submitted by President Eisen-
hover last January II.
LANCER Against Strauss
So far, the only Republican
who has announced that he
will vote against confirmation
is Senator LANCER Of North
Dakota.
Senate Democratic Leader
Johnson plans to try tomorrow
or Tuesday to obtain an agree
ment to limit further debate
on the nomination. He hopes
to get a vote later in the week.
Senator Anderson, Democrat
Of New Mexico. a leader Of the
opposition to Mr.. Strauss. in
jected the dispute over residual
fuel oil imports into the Senate
debate two days ago.
Lewis Aid Reported
He remarked that it was "a
rather hot question in some of
the New England States" and
referred to reports that John
L. Lewis. president of the
United Mine Workers, is sup
porting the Strauss nominal
ton.
The Mine Workers Union
long has battled for restric-
tons on imports of residual
fuel oil. a competitor Of coal.
Senator Aiken said that the
mandatory controls on oil i'm
ports have not yet brought any
price increases in New Eng
land except on asphalt, a by
product.
But he said sharp increases
are anticipated in fuel oil
prices in the fall, with the start
Of the heating season.
In referring to what he called
the efforts Of the coal and do
nestle oil industry to get Mr..
Strauss confirmed, he said he
was disturbed by anything that
would force New England to
use oil at their price"

Housewife Strikes Out HOusebreaker

SEATTLE, LR - A sizzling strike with a steam iron won a slender brunette housewife, who once pitched for softball team, a one-hit decision from an armed intruder.
 The play-by-play on the action comes from a police report:
 A masked man carrying a pistol entered the suburban home of Mrs. M. H. Mckenzie Jr., 27, late Tuesday night. Her husband was in the hospital and her four chil- dren were asleep in nearby rooms.
 The housewife and intruder stared at each other, speeches. for minute or more. Then came the opening delivery.
 T had my hot steam iron in my hand. I threw it at him, under hand, from about five feet away. It hit him in the ribs and may have burned him. Mrs. McKen- zie said.
 The startled gunman ran out the kitchen door, tripping on rug, and fell down again outside.
 When last seen, the victim of the one-hitter was heading through the outfield.

In another instance the al
lergist could not find the
source Of his patients dis
comfort. Finally he sent a

to spend the week end at his

Three times during the
week end she broke out in an
awful rash. The staff mem

Allergic TO Barbituates
One friend of mine almost
died before physicians found
what was wrong with him. He
was having an awful time
and was certain that he was
dying of some obscure
disease. The doctors were at
a loss. Finally it was dis
covered that he is terribly
allergic to the barhituates.
He now wears a silver
bracelet with this informa-
ton on it. SO that in case Of
an accident he will not be
given any.
OF course these are ex-

have allergies have a mild

the following symptoms do
not mean necessarily that
you are allergic in tendency,

She went to one Of New

From His Carriage Small Buby
Surveys His Back Yard Paradise
By MARJORIE HOLMES

All bathed and fed and bundled into sweater leg

carriage and teeter it down the sunny back steps
The yard is golden glory this morning with the
sunlight pouring through the naples The leaves have
taken fire from this flooding Illumination they seem trans
parent and hickering, each dazzling yellow redtpped
flame.
The dogwoods are a muted royal purple The bushes
and shrubs along the bank of the cuvng creek are spashed
with yellow and peppered as with paprica and the whole
pacK yaro is crisp, curly floor of fallen leaves The
SWING SWays gently its seat painted with sunlight and the
ground worn bare about it is puddle of sunlight too
The baby smoothly tucked beneath his blankets ips
over the minute you step and pulls himself to his
knees You watch him scrambing his feet and clngng
to the edge of the carriage to survey this back ward parads
Looking like fat pixie in the peaked cap he belongs
somehow with the scene
Having bounced a few times to express his happy
approval he pops down. yawning half heartedly shakes
his rattle drops it, and tries get his thumb in his mouth
though hampered by sweater sleeve He yawns to
PADDY cake sober then head back again gaze into the
against the buggy side '
Now getting hands and knees he maneuvers himself
around to face the end lays cheek upon the
sheet He is settled than bird chrps and his
mead pops up as If on string He half crouches listening
minute then again lays down his head Again the bird
calls and again his head rises up prompt response He
lstens-and listens-leaf shadows on his face Finally
though the bird continues to chp and thrill yawns and
cuddles down.
You come quietly out and regard the against
the blankets tumbled heap Carefully you lift him up and
turn him about and tuck him in again..
