Teacher Cleared
In $l0O, 600 Theft

SAINTES. France, April 10
(AP) French authorities said
today Marilyn Stewart, 24-year-
old school teacher from Wor-
cester, Mass, has been cleared
in the theft of about 100000
from an American Army camp
last September.
Army headquarters at Or
leans confirmed Miss Stewards
release but had no other infor-
nation on her.
Miss Stewart was a grade
school teacher at the United
States base at Fontenet. in
Western France, last September
when the base finance office
was robbed of slightly more
than 100000. About half the
stolen currency was later found
in a suitcase a friend had left
with Miss Stewart for safe
keeping.
The spokesman said that, so
so far as the American Army is
concerned, Miss Stewart is still
on its list as a school teacher
and is eligible to continue
teaching.
French authorities here are
preparing charges against Bar
ney L. Butler, 34-year-old ad-
ministrative employe at the
Fontenet base. and Victor Cour-
bet, another American civilian.
Their trial is expected to start
soon..

the subcommittee poth pro-
grams should be extended.
The length of the extension
for direct loans would depend
on a mans length of service,
with an outside date of July
25, 1867, for World War II
veterans and January 81, 1875,
for Korean veterans.
10000 Waiting
The witness said more than
80, 900 veterans are on the watt
ing list for direct loans, and
many Of them applied more
than six months ago.
by making funds available
which will allow these veterans
to complete their home buying
plans, added impetus will be
given to the overall economy
at a time when such a stimu-
liant is highly desirable" said
Mr.. BrownStein.
Under existing law the Vet
erans Administration could get
$3.50 million for direct loans
for the year beginning July l.
A pending bill would extend the
authorization to 1867 with ad-
ditional funds amounting to
more than 81 billion for that
six-year period.

Born Free Lion Cubs
Too Free With Goats

NAIROBI, Kenya, April 10
CAP).-Elsa's three lion cubs
Elsa, Jespah and the Timid One
xare in danger of extermina-
tion.
Since the recent death of
their mother, made famous in
Joy Adamson's book Born
Free" they have been raiding
herds of goats and cattle along
the Ura River in the Tharaka
area northeast of Mount Kenya.
.Kenya's chief game warden.
Maj. Ian Grimwood, said today
Mrs. AdamSon'S husb a n d ,
George, the warden responsible
for the Tharaka area. has been
told to try to capture the cubs
and transfer them to a game
reserve.
But if he fails, he will have
to shoot them.
George has been trying to
catch the cubs for the last 10
days." Mai. Grimwood said.
'The little terrors have been
roaring up and down the area,
killing goats mainly.
George has been paying
compensation to the owners out
Of his own pocket.
I'VE have given him a rea-
sonable margin of time to cap
ture the cubs, but if he doesn't
manage it, he'll have to shoot
them. The Tharaka area is
one where human interests
override game interests"
When Elsa died two months
ago, the cubs were not old
enough to fend for themselves
and the Adamsons looked after
them. They wanted the cubs

TOO convicts staged a sitdown
strike at the Washington State

quickly locked in their cells

fused to go to work after they

If all of the public and private
programs that have been pro-
posed thus far could be put
Into effect, the performance Of
the economy would not be
much different between now
and 1865 than it is today.
He explained later that even
though these programs would
produce some improvement in
the economy, idleness in plants
and manpower could be as great
four years from now. when al
lowance is made for the nor
NAL growth in the work force
that will occur in the mean
time.
Calls Bill Inadequate
Mr.. Keyserling was testify
ing on the administrations
new housing program, which
he said he favors as an i'm
provement over existing law
but which he described as "a
Riddle car rather than an omni-
bus bill"
Asked by Senator Douglas,
Democrat Of Illinois, how he
would change the housing bill.
Mr.. Keyserling suggested an
increase in the 100000 new
public housing units and an in
crease in the $3.50 million fund
to be used by the Federal Ma
tional Mortgage Association to
finance experimental new hous-
ing for families Of the low
and moderate income groups.
Earlier, a spokesman for the
Veterans Administration asked
for an extension of the special
housing loan laws for veterans
Of World War II and Korea.
The Government guarantees
private loans to veterans up to
$500 of the total cost of a
home on easier terms than FHA
insurance. and also makes di-
rect loans to veterans in small
towns and rural areas where
private capital is not available.
