Virginia Applies
Sunday Law to
Coin Luundries

RICHMOND. Oct. IL (APD
The Attorney General held
today that coin-operated ma
chimes are a form Of business
and therefore fall under the
regulation of the States new
Sunday closing law.
Atty. Gen. Frederick T
Gray's opinion dealt specifically
with coin-operated laundry
machines. but seemingly would
apply to any type of vending
machine.
Mr.. Gray told Common
wealth's Atty. L. Harvey Neff,
| jr., OF Grayson County that the
laundry machine might be con-
strued as a work Of necessity.
and therefore exempt from the
I law, if a person had no other
day but Sunday to do his
laundry.
Mr.. Neff had asked Mr.. Gray
whether the law would apply to
coin operated laundry where
there is no attendant on duty.
Mr.. Gray said. however, the
question of whether the opera
ton of the laundry would con-
stitute a work of necessity is an
issue of fact which must be
decided by a jury in each indi-
vidual case. He said the test
would be whether the work is
reasonably essential to the eco
nomic, social or moral welfare
OF the people. viewed in the
light of the habits and customs
Of the age in which they live
and Of the community in which
they reside"

a 20-acre site on the outskirts
of Elisabethville.
The joint agreement said
five-man commissions will be
set up in each housing area to
insure the security of persons
returning from the refugee
camp. To lessen the chance of
attack the Katanga national
guard has been disarmed and
the nationalist youth organiza-
ton has been banned.
Many refugees feared they
would be the victims of tribal
warfare as a result of the wave
of nationalist feeling that swept
the Katangese after they
claimed victory over the United
Nations.

TUNIS. Oct. II (AP) .-Tuni-
sian President Habib Bourguiba
said today his government has
asked France for total evacua-
ton of the Bizerte base as a
condition to any other agree
ment.
Mr.. Bourguiba told a cheering
National Assembly nothing
will be undertaken with France
without a prior agreement on
the total evacuation of Bizerte. "
Either this evacuation takes
place or there will be war and
a total Punishment of France
from Tunisia," Mr.. Bourguiba
added.
The TuniSian president said
the note asking France to evac-
uate Bizerte was transmitted
today.
Last month, in an effort to
end the bitter crisis between
Tunisia and France, Mr.. Bour-
guiba proposed France keep the
strategic base for the duration
of the Berlin crisis.
Subsequently, France moved
its troops from the city of BIZ

Bourguibo Demands
French Quit Bizerte

I to the half a dozen military in
Stallations forming the giant
base.
Today's demand by the Tu-
nissan president was likely TO
restore the atmosphere OF ten
sion and crisis.
Let France not insist on
staying at Bizerte against the
will of the Tunisian people. who
are determined TO OBTAIN the
evacuation of their territory
whatever the cost may be-" Mr..
Bourguiba shouted.
The 80 members of the Ma
tional Assembly-all OF Mr.
Bourguiba's ruling Neo-Destour
Party-rose from their plush
red seats and roared approval,
Mr.. Bodrguiba said his
government will take further
steps to reduce the French
economic and cultural influ-
ence in Tunisia. One of the
steps. he said, will be the re-
duction of teaching of French
in primary schools.
The Tunisian president
stressed, however, the evolu-
ton does not mean that Tu-
nisia intends to give up its
traditional friendship for the
West.
I'VE are not going to throw
ourselves into the other camp
because we are disappointed
with France or America" he
said.
Mr.. Bourguiba's speech ap.
peared to have electrifying eff
fecte on a number of Tunisiar
politicians who have beer
criticizing the President fol
softness toward France after
the bloody Bizerte battle last
July.
The battle OF Bizerte was
not in vain" Mr. Bourguiba
said. The government was moi
weakened, as the adversary hac
expected. 1t came out of the
combat stronger than ever.
Despite heavy losses which
essential aim which we sought
will be achieved"

Itary general should have five
principal advisers or deputies
and that four should be named
from the United States. the
Soviet Union, Latin America

Soviet Union wanted the fifth

posed yesterday that six depu-

Permanent u. N. Truce

ELISABETHVILLE. Katanga,
Oct. IL (AP).-Katanga Presi-
dent Noise Tshombe expects to
sign a permanent cease-fire
agreement with the United
Nations tonight, a semioffi-

would be followed by an ex-
change Of prisoners. Uncon-
firmed rumors circulated in

cease fire commission, NAH
moud Khiari, had given Mr..
Tshombe his pledge at a meet
ing yesterday that the U. N.
had no intention of assisting
any central government plan
to put Mr.. Tshombe and his
cabinet under arrest.

Mr.. Khiari had been recalled
| to Leopoldville for consultation
with U. N. authorities there, but
the statement said he acceded
to Mr.. Tshombe's request that
! he remain in Elisabethville I'M
til a cease fire accord could be
signed.
I President Tshombe consid-
cred that an agreement could
be arrived at by this evening"
the statement said.
Fighting between Katanga
troops and U. N. forces who
tried to bring the province I'M
der the authority of the Leo
poldville government was sus-
pended after a temporary cease
fire was reached September 20,
A further sign Of improving
relations between the Katanga

COnferees Stiff
Projects Gap
For Maryland

House-Senate conferees are
meeting to resolve differences
over funds for military con-
struction projects in the Wash
ington area.
A Senate bill provides $8.8
million more for Maryland
military construction this year
than the House allowed.
The House granted 100000
more for Virginia than did the
Senate, however. There is
agreement between the two
houses on the only District item
"a $45,00O addition to the op-
Grating suite at the Walter
Reed Army Medical Center.
The conferees are expected
to report back to the House
next week on these disputed
Maryland programs:
l. A Supertoxic laboratory at
the Army Chemical Center,
Md, for which the Senate
would spend $3.5 million. The
House said unit costs were too
high and that preliminary de-
signs were incomplete. Designs
are scheduled to be finished
October l, SO project bids may
be advertised in January. The
Army has insisted that the re-
search into toxic agents is vital
and critical in the present
tense military situation.
2. An academic building at
the Aberdeen Proving Ground,
Md, $3.3 million. The Senate
restored the item to the r1ili-
tary budget to permit transfer
of activities from an ''inade-
quate" World War II temporary
building. The Army has re-
duced the size of the library
and demonstration area and
changed the cafeteria to a
snack bar since the House re-
jected the plan.
3. A headquarters command
building at Andrews Air Force
Base, $2.2 million. The Senate
was willing to spend So million
more than the House on
grounds that the Air Force had
decentralized as much as pos
Sible. Still, the existing head
quarters remains "overcrowded
and deficient" Senate commit
teemen said. The Senate also
restored S288,O0O to the House
budget for a parachute and

Doctor Slain,
Wife Injured

GARDEN CITY, N. Y, Aug.
"a (APp.-A well-to-do Long
Island physician was stabbed to
death by a man who broke into
his tudor style home shortly
before l am. today.
The victims wife, also a
physician, suffered critical stab
wounds.
DR.. Paul Behrendt, IS, was
stabbed several times. One
knife thrust in the chest was
so vicious that three ribs were
cut through.
His wife, DR.. Frances Beh-
rendt, SIS, also was stabbed a
number Of times.
Police theorized that the as
Sailant was bent on burglary
and was surprised in the kitch-
en- by the male doctor, who was
carrying a cane, apparently for
protection.
Police said that apparently
nothing was stolen from the
expensive house in this fash
ionable New York City suburb.
Several cabinets, which may
contain narcotics, were locked.
The male doctors wallet, con-
tanning a considerable amount
of money, was found in his bed
room. Jewelry belonging to him
and his wife also was found by
investigators.
The wife was in such poor
condition at Nassau Hospital in
Mineola that she could not be
questioned.
After inspecting the murder
scene, police pieced together
this probable series of events {:
The intruder cut a hole in a
screen door large enough to
crawl through to get onto the
back porch.
The noise wakened the two
doctors in their upstairs bed
room and they went downstairs
together to investigate.
The husband opened the
door from the kitchen to the
porch, and the intruder lunged
at him with a knife. After
killing him, the aSSailant
slashed the wife. She ran up
stairs, leaving a trail of blood.
