Gobelin. 1t was purchased
by the late Livingston

ried Henry L. Milmore, last
owner of the house.
The Aubusson rug, also a
museum piece, is rose with a
floral center surrounded by
pale blue. 1t reminds one of
a. Frag on a I'd painting.
Though it is very large, it
still requires a companion
rug for either end of the
room. and to obtain two that
will go with it. Edith Platter
had a photo Of the big rug,
a drawing and skeins Of
yarn from her wool basket
that exactly matched the
colors sent to Vienna as a
guide.
Also in the salon is a con-
cert grand piano, a BoSen-

spite all that furniture, the
room is quite uncrowded.
The draperies in this room
are rose red damask pat

Florentine grill doors with
delicate iron grill roses bar
the entrance to the paneled

have a red velvet portiere.

Probers Soy Two
Of Jets Engines
Were Disabled
By the Associated Press

Federal investigators said to-
day that two engines of the
Capital Airlines plane which
crashed near Holdcroft, Va,
January 18, were disabled, and
the other two may have been
working in reverse. All so per-
sons aboard the plane were
killed.
The investigators, declining
to be quoted by name, said the
propellers of two engines were
feathered. This means that
they were out of order and the
pilots had changed the pitch
OF the props on the dead en-
gines to keep them from turn
ing over and creating danger
Gus vibration.
The investigators said they
were checking into reports that
the props of the other engines
were on ground fine pitch"
This means the engines. in ef-
feet. were in reverse. The in
vestigators said they had not
completed their investigation
to determine whether this re-
port was accurate.
If it turns out to be true, one
expert said. Il can't think of
a more serious situation"
In the Viscount British-made
plane the power of it's jets is
used to turn propellers.

Data Given

A woman member Of Con-
gress said today that "it is
claimed that we don't swallow
our lipstick. but I think the
people who make that claim
don'C use the stuff themselves"
Representative Leonor K.
Sullivan, Democrat of Missouri,
made the statement in testi-
mony before the House Com
merce Committee. which is
considering a bill to extend the
ban on cancer-inducing chem
icals to cover color additives.
| The committee was told yes
terday by Health Department
officials that some colors used
in lipSticks cause damage to
the wearers liver but are not
cancer-producing. Health Sec
retary Flemming. during a full
days testimony supporting a
color additive amendment to
the Federal Food. Drug and
Cosmetics Act, made the dis
closure.
Goes Into Detail
Mrs. Sullivan. who urged the
committee to go slow in con-
sidering the bill, went into
some detail on the use OF lip
sticks. There is no doubt. she
said. that women want safe
lipsticks.
I'VE like the bright and light
shades but if they cannot safely
be produced. then we prefer to
do without these particular
shades" she said.
She went on to say, however,
that the proposed legislation
could not give any fiat or un-
equivocal guarantee of saftey
about any coal-tar color for
which tolerance had to be set.
If legislation is absolutely
necessary to clear up some of
the confusion in the color ad-
ditive field, then I urge that it
be done only as part of an
omibus bill closing all loopholes
in present law and including
safe cosmetics legislation" Mrs.
Sullivan said.
Tests Show Damage
The cosmetics industry has
asked for a hearing on a ban
by the Health, Education and
Welfare Department on the
use of seven coal-tar colors.

Attorney General if it is legal
to require a student to attend

DR.. Thomas G. Pullen, jr., the
official, said yesterday he also
asked the Attorney Generals
office to give an opinion on the
legality of reading the Bible or
repeating the Lords Prayer In

quires one or the other.
The superintendent's queries
were prompted by protests Of a
14-year-old boy and his mother,
who say they are atheists.
National Importance Seen
