Knots Show

QuestiOn-The wood siding
Of our year-old hoouse is
painted a light gray. Dark
spots are beginning to de-
velop over what I think are
knots in the wood. How can
these spots be eliminated?
Answer - The knots were
probably not properly sealed
before the siding was painted,
to prevent "bleed ng"
through. Remove the paint
over the dark areas. and
apply a special knot-sealing
preparation available at most
paint dealers; or apply a coat
Of shellac or aluminium paint
to prevent future bleeding

Question: If I read you cor
rectly, in a recent column you
concede that, on dictionary evil
dence, "franticly" may be cor
rect, as the adverbial form of
frantic" but "frantically" is
preferred. Mind answering a
rebels "why?" I don't like
"frantically" and would never
have thought of using it nor, to
be truthful, would I have ever
thought it correct before seeing
1t in your column. I've known
people who were frantic" but
would never have called them
"frantical." Amt you being
antical with frantical?-G. D.
Cammeyer, Alexandria, Va.
P.S. As a friend of mine says
ABOUT the income tax: 1T may
oe correct-but it amt right"
ANSWER: Varying your
,drleno's remark, your case for
Irantlcly" may be logical-but
IL isn't correct. In trying to
,oraw a parallel between "antic"
ana frantic" you are compar-
ing words which came into
Engllsh from different sources
y ante" from Latin, via Ital-
'Sn' frantic" from Greek by
Evening star., 1960-04-22

way Of French). You are also
comparing words which have
had very different histories
since their entrance into Eng
lish. But, most serious of all,
you are attempting to apply
rules of logic to English-and
one of the great charms of our
multihybrid language is that it
rarely conforms to logical pre-
cepts.
The dictionaries, it's true,
admit "franticly" as an accept
able spelling, but always as the
second choice-with "frantical-
ly" preferred. Several of the
word books label "franticly" as
rare"
Frantic" as it happens,

comes from the Greek "phreni-
tikoS." meaning a suffering
caused by Inflammation of the

For Aged Bill
BY the Associated Press

Senate Democrats today pre-
pared for a big push in the
closing days of Congress to try
to write a medical care pro-
gram for the aged into the
social security system.
Several Senate sources said
the votes we're available,
though perhaps by a narrow
margin, to put this type of
provision into the social Securi-
ty bill which passed the House
380-23 yesterday.
Two Democratic presidential
aspirants, Senators Kennedy
of Massachusetts, and Syming-
ton of Missouri, have said they
strongly favor adding medical
care benefits for retired persons
to the social security system.
Another. Majority Leader
Johnson, has indicated he
favors this approach.
The Eisenhower administra-
ton sharply opposes such a
plan, favoring instead pro-
gram of Federal State grants
to finance major medical bene-
fits for needy older persons.
Senator Harry F. Byrd, DEM
ocrat of Virginia, whose
Finance Committee will handle
the House bill, told a reporter
he would take it up promptly,
probably early next week. Sen
ator Byrd has not disclosed his
stand on health legislation.
"I think this bill holds the
key to the adjournment OF
the Congress-" the committee
chairman said.
In order to speed action on
the measure, the committee
may consider it without hold
ing open hearings. After this
week, only two weeks remain
until the Democratic National
Convention opens July IL.
A limited medical care pro-
gram, worked out as a conf
promise after weeks of argu-
ment in the Ways and Means
Committee, is contained IN the
House bill.

conference on that point.
Representative Hoffman, Re-
publican Of Michigan, who
made the motion to recede, said
he did not believe that the
broadened franking privilege
would be abused. He neverthe-
less advised his colleagues:
Let's forget this special
privilege until after election
year. We shouldn't open our
selves to further public criti-
ciSm by voting for legislation
that benefits u.s."

said yesterday that any mem

meals, laundry and tips must
get approval from their COM
mittee chairmen in advance.
But it said up to $25 a day
could be paid where neces-
sary subsistence costs are un-
usually high" or where hotel
bills alone would use up the
$12. Members staying within
the $l2 limit do not have to
list their expenses in detail,
but those spending more than
that will have to itemize their
costs.
The ceiling on expenses was
ordered following a series of
copyrighted stories by the
Knight newspapers. The series
said some members spent as
much as $l03 a day on hotel
accommodations, food and
drink while on congressional
trips.
Harris Gets Ovation
Representative Harris, Dem
ocrat of Arkansas, received a
standing ovation from the
House yesterday when he
charged the stories stemmed
from Government efforts to
discipline the broadcaSting
industry.
He centered his attack on
the Knight newspapers and
Life magazine. which published
a summary of the newspaper

After reciting these statistics,
Mr.. Harris asserted:

Mr.. Knight was not avail
able for comment.
A Life spokesman in New
York said the magazine had no
immediate comment on Mr..
Harris remarks.
Lee Hills, vice president and
executive editor of the Detroit
Free Press. one of the Knight
newspapers, commented:
Il can only assume that Mr..
Harris attack against the De-
troit Free Press is simply to
divert attention from the facts
of the case. The fact remains
that taxpayers funds paid for
! liquor bills incurred by Repre-
sentative Harris and a few COL

mentioned, charged at the time
that the report was a smear.
He is chairman of the House
subcommittee that investigated
payola and quiz show rigging.
His speech yesterday opened
House debate on legislation to
outlaw such practices.
He said broadcasters and
large publications which own
broadcasting facilities "do not
want legislation of this kind"
He said "pressures began NOV
ing in" shortly after the bill
received committee approval,
but he did not say what form
the reported pressures took or
where they originated.
Deceit Charged
Mr.. Harris repeated several
times that both the Knight
chain and Life magazine have
extensive broadcasting hold
ings. He noted that the Fed
eral Communications Commits
sion now is investigating
whether it should reverse its
decision in granting Publisher
John S. Knight and others a
license to use Miami Television

Knight as a multi millionaire

said the publisher seeks power
In launching his lengthy talk,
