THE PRESIDENT RE

THE PRESIDENT RE-
TURNED to the United
States on September 7. He
had eight days to read the fig
report before Premier Khru-
shchev arrived on Septem-
Der IS.
The President probably had
seen a similar report earlier
and may have skinned it
before concentrating on the
business about summit en-
tanglementS. Since he took
office in January of 1858, six
reports on figs, dried, have
been submitted to him an
nually.
Some feel the dried fig
reports are the cause of the
reported GOODNESS between
Mr.. Eisenhower and former
President Truman.
For it was Mr.. Truman,
not Mr., Eisenhower, who is
responsible for the produc-
ton of fig reports by the
United States Tariff Com
mission.
President Truman signed,
on October IA, 1852, the exec
utive order in which proce-
dureS are prescribed for the
periodic review of develop
ments with regard to a prod
uct (figs) on which a trade
agreement concession has
been withdrawn or modified
as a result of escape clause
action. Really.
Mr.. Truman. therefore,
was able to leave Office before
any fig reports came in. And
there is no record of any hav-
ing been sent to the Truman
Library in independence, Mo.
The fig report, obtained
from "a source within the
Tariff Commission, one who
furnishes the public with fig
apd similar reports as long
as "the limited supply lasts, I"
is bound in tan paper and
contains 80 pages. Included
are IL graphs dealing with
consumption and imports,
styles of packs and varieties
of figs during the crop years,
1851 through 1858.

ministrator and deputy admin
istrator, with the consent of the
Senate.
A five-member advisory board
also would be named by the
President. After Senate APP
proval, members would serve
three-year terms and meet at
least once every 80 days.
Agencies Represented
The administrator would
head an authority committee on
Iintergovernmental cooperation
Represented would be the Inter-
state Commerce Commission,
District government, Maryland
Public Service Commission, Vir-
ginia Corporation Commission
and planning and highway de-
partments of the District, Vir-
GINA and Maryland.
Both the board and the COM
mittee would simply advise the
two administrators, whose de-
cisions in the final analysis
would be the authority's de-
cisions, as the legislation is
drafted.
The draft grants powers gen.
orally in three major categories
transit, highways and park
ing. Money would come from
the Treasury in exchange for
the sale of bonds. The report
suggested that Congress ap-
propriate funds to make up
deficits from the transit opera
ton.
Plan on Transit
The authority could build or
buy a transit system to supple
u1ent present private service.
1t would review all highway
design and site plans and could
help finance new roads. The
promise of financial aid would
be the closest the authority
could come to actual control
of highways, however.
Although the authority could
acquire land for transportation
facilities in the area, Virginia
and Maryland through their
highway departments could
block such acquisition.
The authority would pay gov
ernments money in lieu of taxes
on its land and property.

The White House has never
revealed whether the Pres
ident received the report
it is entitled, Figs, Dried
in London, or in Paris where
he arrived on September 2
and wound up talks with
President de Gaulle of
France. There is a distinct
possibility the report was
never sent overseaS-but
was placed on the Pres

letter from the Committee
Against Summit Entangle-

81, submitted its objections

secretary of the National Box
ing Association, wired Robin

ton forthwith" because of
reports of pending bout with

weight champion.

to relieve boxers in high tax
brackets.

Hank is beginning his 22d

His career started at Butler.
Pa. in 1887 and took him to
Akron. Birmingham, Syracuse,
Cincinnati, the Cubs, the Cardi-
mails, the old New York Giants
and, most recently. the San
Francisco Giants.
The big outfielder admitted
there is less pressure on him
in spring training now than in
the old days when he was press
ing for a starting job.
But I still work plenty hard
now" he said. 1T used to be
that spring training was a
pleasure for me. Now it's real
work. I didn't really notice it
until about two years ago."
Sauer's legs naturally come
around a little more slowly than
they did a few years ago. But he
has no serious aches or pains
and he's still hitting the ball
with great authority.
Sauer. the National Leagues
most valuable player in 1852
and its comeback player of the
year in 1857. expects to be
used mostly as a pinch hitter
and spot starter in the out
field this season.
You have to move over
sometime and let the kids take

got no complaints. I've had a
real good career. The game has

Loeort to Get Second Shot
At Scott After Losino Bout

NEW YORK. Mar. II (AP)
A warmup fight turned out
to be a roast for Isaac Logart,
the welterweight contender
from New York.
Charley Scott, a virtual I'M

a 3-to-1 underdog, made things
too hot for sleek Isaac at St.

rangy 22-year-old edged the
25-year-old Logart by a split
decision in 10 rounds.
Promoter Teddy Bremen said
he planned to have them meet
in a return bout at st. Nick's
within a month.
If Bremen makes it most of
the l,406 fans who paid $3,083
undoubtedly will be back for
another helping.
The officials split on the ver-
dict and so did the ringside
critics. But the fans loudly
cheered the majority vote and

Referee Mark Conn. who had
little to do in the ring but get
out of the way. had Scott a
big winner, 6-2-2 on rounds.
Judge Joe Eppy had it SAIL for
Scott. Judge Joe D'Onofrio's
score was Sal for Logart.
Logart is ranked No. 3 con-
tender by Ring and No. S by
the MIA. He returned to New
York in January after a sue
cessful trip to South America
where he won two bouts, drew
in another, and earned more
than $4,000. He was unbeaten
in his last five outings.
The Scott fight was supposed
to be a tuneup for something
better later on. He received
500 for his licking.
Now he's got to beat Scott
to regain prestige.
SCOTS victory was his third
