chieOaO to s.. Paul: Three lines offer
service on this 4OO-miIe route = the
Chicago, Burlington & Quincy; the Chi
cago, Milwaukee, St. Paul & Pacific; and
the Chicago & North Western. They
use different tracks, different freight
yards, different repair shops, and differ

absurd to have lines with parallel tracks

The answer, believe, is railroad con-

.l2-Year-Old Colo. Lad Is National
 Spelling Champ

WASHINGTON, R - Koel Montgomery, 12, of Denver, Colo, yesterday won the 32nd Annual National Spelling Bee.
 He defeated the runner-up, Robert Crossley, 12. of Center Square, Pa, to become the first boy national champion since 1854.
 Joe successfully spelled the word "fanfaronade" after Rob- ert missed it. Then under the rules he successfully negotiated one more word, "catamaran," to clinch the championship.
 "Fanfaronade" means swagger- ing or vain boasting. A "catama- ran" is any. vessel with twin hulls side by side.
 The last boy to win top honor was William Cashere of Norris town, Pa.
 The winner gets $1,00O and a weekend trip to New York, tro- phy and a plaque for his school. All the finalists get at least $25 awards.

Adenauer's Change Of Mind Due To
 Death of Dulles

BONN, Germany, R - Chan cellor Konrad Adenauer said yes terday one reason why he changed his mind about seeking the less powerful post of president was the death of John Foster Dulles.
 The aged Chancellor told tu- multuous session of Parliament that he thought that with the death of the U. s. Secretary of State he should retain his power ful chancellor's job to insure con- tinuity of Western policy in these critical days.
 But Socialist leader Erlich O1- lenhauer argued that Adenauer's real reason was that he wanted to "hold on to power under all circumstances"
 Tt was the reverse of demo- cratic principle - it was the dis play of the naked principle I am the state and only I am in the position to do what is right and necessary, Ollenhauer de- clared
 Adenauer's retort was that the whole process was completely democratic, as he had presented his position for party endorse ment
 While some approved and others disapproved, they wound up ip agreement, endorsing his dcision by what he called democratic pro- cedureS.
 ''I have in my whole long life, even in Nazi times, adhered to democratic principles" said the 83-year-old Chancellor. As for the charge he sought personal power he replied that with power went responsibilities and he had acted as he did in fulfillment of his heavy responsibilities.
