Neuberger to Get
Medical Checkup

Senator Neuberger, Democrat
Of Oregon, will fly to Oregon
in a few days for complete
medical checkup before taking
final steps to run for re-
election this year.
The Senator, who recovered
from an attack of cancer a year
ago, said he thought this pre-
caution desirable because he
has had influenza twice and a
touch of pleurisy this winter.
The Senator said he tires
toward the end of a hard day,
but feels this may be because
he has not had a vacation or
more than four days off since
he came to the Senate five
years ago.

If you recall the historic

When the huge, 9 million
pound cast iron dome was as
sembled 81 years ago, it was
white, to match the marble OF
the newly constructed House
and Senate wings. Over the
years, however, as the marble
of the wings became dirty, the
shade of paint was varied ac-
cordingly.
This change of tint is one OF
the Unsupported findings un-
covered by the dome's renova-

Far more exciting to archi-

French troops who have faced

will soon get orders that must

President Charles de Gaulle's

If any ultimatum was IN
volved, it was deeply veiled.
Mr.. Delouvrier called on the
nations Moslem majority to
demonstrate their faith in Gen.

telling the insurgent French
men that they could not win
without Moslem support and
that Gen. de Gaulle has that
support. There are about 9 mil.
lion Moslems in Algeria and /

Leaders Leaving AIgiers
The orders to the 500 0,0O0-
man army, Mr.. Delouvrier said,
will be issued by Gen. Maurice
Challe, the military COM
mander-in-chief.
Without saying what those
orders might be, Mr.. Delouvrier
then announced he and Gen.
Challe were quitting Algiers for
a command post in the coun-
tryside.
He told the leaders of the
barricaded insurgents-foes of
Gen. de Gaulle'S plan to let
Algeria eventually decide it's
own future-that he and Gen.
Challe would return to Algiers'
"at the time which you wish"
to shake hands.
Orders From Cabinet
The orders to which Mr..
Delouvrier referred presumably
are from the French cabinet.
A Paris spokesman announced
yesterday the cabinet, at a
meeting presided over by Gen.
de Gaulle. had approved in
structions for Mr.. Delouvrier
and Gen. Challe.
The insurgents eased the
general strike today and sought
to whip up revolutionary fervor
among the Moslem population
of Algiers. The appeal to the

JERUSALEM, Aug. 4 (AP).-
Israel and Argentina have
settled their differences over
the kidnapping of Adolf Eich-

mass murder of 6 million Jews
under Hitler.
Israeli agents seized Eich-
mann in Argentina May 81 and
whisked him of to Israel,
where he now awaits trial as
a war criminal. The Argentine
government charged that Israel
had infringed on Argentine
sovereignty by acting without
its knowledge or consent. It
demanded Eichmann's return
to Argentina.

night in Buenos Aires and
