shot once in the chest in the
bedroom of the f1ve-room home
that he had built for his fam
lily himself.
State Police Investigator Jack
Hall said today that investiga-
ton of the case was reopened
several weeks ago at the request
of Prince William County Sher-
if Ralph G. Shumate.
A former sheriff of Prince
William County termed the
death a suicide last June 10.
Investigator Hall said Mrs
Chastain now has told officers
that she shot her husband in an
argument over finances.
He described the shooting as
having been done in "the heat
of passion"
He said Sheriff Shumate re-
opened the investigation due to
repeated requests from the
dead mans family and the
wlfe'S family, and because he
was not convinced that the
original investigation had re-
vealed the entire story.
Investigator Hall said he was
assisted in the investigation by
detectives of the Fairfax County
Police Department.
A hearing is scheduled March
4 in Prince William County
Court.

Virqinio Mother Held

Virginia State police have
charged a Prince William
County mother of four with
murder in the fatal shooting
last June of her husband.
Mrs. Lillian Chastain of Bris-
tow, was jailed at Manassas
yesterday in lieu of $4,000
bond.
The death of her husband,
Truett Chastain, 81, a bull
dozer operator, was originally
listed as a suicide after Mrs.
Chastain said last June that
she had found her 2-year old
daughter sitting on her hus-
bands body holding a .32-cal-
iber revolver.
At the time, Mrs. ChaStain
told police that she had been
preparing breakfast at 5:45
am. June II, when she heard
a shot. She said she found a
high chair pushed up to an
open closet door from which the
revolver usually hung in a bag,
police said.
The wife told officers the gun
had been purchased by her
husband for protection shortly
after the mass murder of the
jackson family in Louisa

Queen Elizabeth II and her
husband, Prince Philip, were

After refusing for several
years to take sides in the Su-
preme Courts battle against
starlings and pigeons, the
House Appropriations Commit
tee today formally declared war
against the birds.
1t approved $4,000 to install
an electronic determination
system atop the Supreme Court
building. The money was in
cluded in a supplemental ap-
preparations bill for more than
a score of Government agencies.
Before yielding to the courts
request for anti-bird funds, the
committee made sure its own
defenses were in good shape.
In past years it had refused to
provide money for fear the
birds would wing their way
across the plaza and take ref
uge on the Capitol.

most of the birds make the Su-
preme Court their home.
j. George Stewart, Capitol
architect, said the electronic
elimination system-a sort of
hot foot device-probably will
be installed on the court build
ing by September. BY that
time, the Capitol will have its
own electronic system and the
birds will have no haven on
the Hill"
Mr.. Stewart said he didn't
care where they went, so long
as they kept out of his domain.
He backed up Justice Clark's
request for the $4,000.
Mr.. Stewart told the Appro-
priations Committee that some
rather careful studies" indi-
Gated that the birds probably
will have Pho. degrees and
know how to get away from
everything that is put up to

He said he believed the cleo

trick because "it is working
very effectively" on four big
buildings in downtown Wash
ington.

Launching Slated
Today at WoILops
BY the Associated Press

Another attempt will be
made tonight to launch a 100
foot-diameter inf1atable sphere
from Wallops Island, Va, to an
altitude of $50 miles.
The sphere. which would be
visible for more than 500 miles
in good weather, is a forerunner
of the lightweight balloon"
satellites planned for future
use as radio communications
relay stations.
The National Aeronautics
and Space Administration said
that if weather conditions are
satisfactory the sphere will be
launched about $40 pm.

CAPE CANAvERAL, Fla,
Feb. 26 (AP).-The United
States sent up an experimental

lite today but partially lost
radio contact with it Just after
the launching.
The Air Force announced
half an hour after the 1925
pm. lift-off:
Preliminary indications are
that separation of the second
stage occurred. However, be-
cause of partial loss of teleme-
try, it may be some time before
we know if the second stage
ignited."
An official said, however,
that some telemetry was still
being received.
Midas mission is to multiply
warning time on enemy mis-
siles by detecting them only
seconds after their launching.
Originally an announcement
on whether the rocket achieved
orbit had been planned here in
about two hours, after it had
a chance to make one circuit of
the earth. The satellite was
planned to spin in a path 100
to 200 miles high.
Timing Uncertain
The partial radio failure left
the timing uncertain.
Midas, which stands for
Missile Defense Alarm System,
is the first United States satel-
lite launched for a purely mill

has clamped a secrecy lid on
most details about it.
Officials emphasized that this

SHANNON, Ireland, Feb. 26
(AP). An italian airliner
bound for New York with So
persons aboard crashed and
exploded today in a tiny Irish
cemetery.
Twenty-six of those aboard
the Alfalfa airliner were killed
in the crash and three others
died after being brought to
hospitals. OF the % surviv-
ors many lay near death, hor-
ribly burned and broken.
The airline said IL Ameri-
cans were among the 40 pas
sengers. but it did not know
yet which, if any, had survived.
The four-engine DC-7 crashed
Immediately after taking off
from Shannon's International
Airport for the Atlantic hop. It
had set out from Naples, landed
at Rome to pick up more pas
sengers, and stopped in Shan
non to refuel.
Flows Through Cemetery
The airliner crashed through
the wall of the cemetery, near
the airport. and plowed through
a line of tombstoneS and across
a sheep pasture, leaving a mile
long trail of fire and bodies.
There were bodies scattered
all over the field, said a local
priest, the Rev. Thomas Conner
ford. People were mixed up
with the remains of sheep the
plane had killed. Most of the
bodies were horribly mutilated.
People were screaming, sheep
were crying and dogs were
barking. 1t was like a scene
from hell"
The plane carried 40 pas
sengers. Most were Italians.
One passenger was a recent
bride flying to join her Ameri-
can husband, a Marine lieuten-
ant and helicopter pilot sta
toned aboard a carrier which
recently had been transferred
to the Caribbean.
She was Mrs. Giulia Palovicini
Creel, daughter-in-law of Judge
James r. Creel of the New York
City Court of Special Sessions.
In the confusion it could not
be learned Immediately wheth-
er she was among the survivors.

President Cites
Power Of Free
Joint Effort Urged
With Argentine

BUENoS AIRES. Feb. 26
(AP). - President Eisenhower
said today freedom -cherishing
nations "can command a power
so great that no potential ag-
gressor could violate the peace
without inviting his own de-
struction."
Addressing Argentina's Con-
gress a few hours after arriv-
ing here for a weekend visit,
Mr.. Eisenhower spoke of 1.-The
ugly external threat which
faces us"-an obvious allusion
to communism. But he said
there is a way the threat can
be overcome.
The way, Mr.. Eisenhower
said, is a maximum of inter-
national exchange of ideas,
persons and techniques. That
is "the surest foundation for
the kind of cooperative prog
ress we all SEEK" the PreSi-
dent declared.
Economic Gain Cited
AS for Argentina's role, Mr.
Eisenhower said:
II am happy to assure
you of the continued readiness
of my Government to cooper
ate with you to the extent that
such cooperation is feasible, is
welcomed, and may contribute
to the wellbeing of your great
country"
Quite likely with the regime
of former Dictator Juan D.
Peron in mind, Mr.. Eisenhower
told the Argentine legislators
the people of the United States
"are mindful of the eXtraor-
binary efforts you are making
to restore your national
economy"
1--WE hope and expect that
the solid economic foundations
you have been building will
soon result in improved living
standards" he said.
The Presidents orange and
silver jet, bringing him from
Rio de Janeiro, touched down
at Ezeiza International Airport
at 10:40 am.
A series of bomb explosions
early today in Buenos Aires was
taken as an indication of ef-
forts by Peronistas or other
dissidents to embarrass the
government of President Ar
turo Frondizi at the time Of
Mr.. Eisenhower's visit.
Leaves for Embassy
He was greeted by an orderly
crowd of 5000. including Presi-
dent Frondizi, who was his guest
in Washington a year ago.
Mr.. Frondizi said he saluted
Mr.. Eisenhower as the repre-
sentative of a brother nation OF
the north and for his wartime
victories.
Mr.. Eisenhower concluded a
2-minute speech by saying ir

field" Congress was told. Some
of the overall totals rejecting
Washington's social and eco
nomic problems continue to

in previous years, the Com
missioners said.

These figures are encourag-
ing enough, they reported, to
convince us that we are on

should pursue our educational,
urban renewal, crime preven-
ton, health and welfare, and
other allied programs with
vigor."

demic standards and its pupil
teacher ratio, while not the
best, has been improved con-

four-track academic program
has been success, and the

The Senate voted overwhelm-
ingly today to back up the deci-
sion of its leaders to hold mara
thon sessions next week in
order to force a decision on
civil rights.
The vote was 67-10 and came
on a motion by Democratic
Leader johnson of Texas to Or
der an adjournment at 5 pm.
Monday.
Senator johnson opposed his
own motion. He explained that
he made it to show that any
decision to go beyond a normal
day on Monday is the decision
of the Senate and not his.
He also explained that he
made the motion because Sem
ator Holland, Democrat of Flor
ida. had taken the position that
if around-the-clock sessions i'm
paired the health of Senators
the responsibility would be on
the leaders.
Senator Johnson said he
hoped all Senators would enjoy
perfect health but that IF
accidents or sickness occur I
do not want the blood on my
hands"
One Continuous Session
The vote means only that the
Senate will run later than 5
pm. Monday but Senator john
son made it clear the leadership
still intends to hold one con-
tinuous session all next week.
He invited any Senator to test
the feeling of the Senate by
moving to adjourn at any other
hour after 5 pm.
About half of the Southerners
opposing any civil rights law
decided to vote with the North
erners against quitting early on
Monday. Presumably, they
were trying to show their will

of marathon sessions.
