UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
July 20 (AP).-Dag Hammar-
skiold wants the 5,300-man
United Nations army in the
GAIA Strip maintained through
1862 to insure peace between
Israel and its Middle East
neighbors, despite an estimated
$836,000 boost in costs.
The U. N. secretary general
said yesterday in a report to
the General Assembly that the
cost Of keeping up the emer-
gency force would be around
$l9,8S6, 300 for the coming year.
The force was hurried into the
area after the British French
Israeli Suez invasion In 1856.
Mr.. Hammarskjold warned
that the emergency force oper-
alton represents a $21.6 million
U. N. deficit, and another $19.9
million must be found to pay
for bills incurred in 1860. The
Communist countries and a
number of Arab nations have
refused to help pay for the

'Rube Goldberg Device
Inventor Upheld in Suit

Mr.. Paddock said he did not
know exactly how many anti
blackout devices have been
manufactured by the Govern
ment, but that it was standard
Government equipment in
widespread use.
Mr.. Coakwell's device, de-
scribed as a means of prevent
ing fighter pilots from losing
consciousness when making
sharp panKs or steep dives, is
designed to prevent the drain
ing of blood from the head.
A weight would force down a
plunger as the aircraft turned,
sending fluid under pressure
through a rubber hose to pads
at the neck of the pilot, &C.
cording to designs included in
the court record.
Mr.. Paddock said Mr.. Coax
we'll had never built a model of
his device. baSing his patent
claim solely on a diagram.
The attorney said even If it
did prevent blood from draining
from the pilots head, the blood
would "be de5oxygenated and
would probably be fatal"
He said Thomas Ferwerda, a
Navy surgeon who is now re-
tired, first demonstrated a sue
cessful anti-blackout device at
Anacostia Naval Air Station
in January, 1912, five months
before Mr.. Coakwell applied for
his patent.

Racial discrimination charges
against the 1,200-unit Mclean
Gardens Apartment project in
Northwest Washington are
based on two District laws
passed in the l870s.
Mclean Gardens, at Wiscon-
sin avenue and Porter street
NV, comes under the laws
because the owning corporation
holds a hotel license and main
tains 40 rooms for transients.
The 1870 laws forbid discrimi-
nation against "any orderly
person" in any establishment
holding a hotel license.
The charges against the
project were filed last week by
Miss Ronyl Stewart, 81, a Ne

Driving

Scrutinized

ST. PAUL, Minn., July 20
(AP).-The driving record of
Minnesota's Republican Cover
nor came under close scrutiny
this week as a squabble snow
balled over appointment of a
police chief in neighboring
Minneapolis by the city's new
Democratic mayor.
Gov. Elmer L. Andersen
called a press conference at
which he told of a series of
traffic violations over a 10-year
period, including three for
speeding and a 30-day suspen-
sion of his drivers license.
The violations happened be-
fore Mr.. Andersen was elected
Governor last fall. Gov. An
dersen said he also had been
tagged for making a wrong
turn onto a one-way street at
a time he didn't have his driv-
er's license on his person.
II recall vividly how much 1
regretted the experience. but I
learned my lesson" Gov. An
dersen said, reminding news
men he hadn't received any
speeding tickets since.
Gov. AnderSen's driving er-
rors cropped up after a contro-
verSy in Minneapolis over ap-
pointment of a police chief by
Arthur Naftalin, elected Mayor
last month.
Mr.. Naftalin nominated Jack
Puterbaugh, resigned State
liquor commissioner, for the
police post. Both Mr.. Naftalin
and Mr.. Puterbaugh served in
the previous Democratic ad-
ministration under Gov. Orville
L. Freeman, now Secretary of
Agriculture. Mr.. Naftalin was
State administration commits
sioner.
The driving record of Mr..
Puterbaugh came to light. Mr..
Puterbaugh acknowledged at
a city council hearing that be-
fore he became liquor commits
sioner, he had driven a car for
two years while his drivers Ii
cense was under suspension be-
cause OF an accident. Mr.. Pu-
terbaugh withdrew his name
and Mr.. Naftalin still is look
ing for a chief.
Gov. Andersen also told
newSmen he has learned that
William Joyce. his newly ap-
pointed liquor commissioner
had been convicted of drunken
driving in 1888. Mr.. Joyce re-
signed from the Minneapolis
police force to take the lob,
Gov. Andersen said the 'viola-
ton took place before Mr.,
Joyce became a policeman and
that he had had an excellent

An Ohio inventor has won a
seven-year patent infringe
ment battle that will enable
him to collect from the Govern
ment for unauthorized manu-
facture of anti-blackout de-
vices used by Navy and Air
Force pilots.
A Justice Department attor-
ney branded the United States
Court of Claims finding yester-
day as IAN outrageous decision" "
He said it will jeopardize long,
term Government research pro-
programs. The decision may
be appealed to the Supreme
Court, he said.
The claims court said the
1854 patent of Charles A. Coax
well of Andover, Ohio, "is valid
and has been infringed," by the
Government.
The Justice Department at
torney, G. M. Paddock, called
Mr.. Coakwell's invention "a
Rube Goldberg device if there
ever was one" and said a prom
inent Navy researcher had
testified the device would
probably be fatal" if it were
ever used.
The Navy and Air Force de-
vices are not based on Mr..
Coakwell's designs, he con-
tended.
The court said the amount
Mr.. Coakwell can recover will
