The Government has stopped
the shipment Of IS precision
machine tools to the Soviet
Union, but Russian agents have
technical drawings of the
United States-developed grind
er.
The machines are used to
make the rings between which
miniature ball bearings roll.
The completed units go into
missiles and other defense

Interior Secretary Udall said
today the Kennedy administra-

what may prove to be their last
chance to preserve substantial
amounts Of unspoiled land.
THE land which we save
now is likely all that ever can
be saved" he said, "and know
that I speak for millions of
Americans when I say this

Mr.. Udall addressed the 26th

Sees Broad Mandate
Mr.. Udan said no President
ever has given conservationists
a broader mandate than Mr..
Kennedy. He said the New
Frontier policy comes after a
20-year lapse during which the
Nation had no massive and
sustained conservation effort. +"
"The Department Of the In

a prime mover in national af-
fairs until World War II. 1t
then slowely settled into a rut

The emphasis during morn

PRIVATE LIFE NSUR-
ANCE - The Civil Service
Commission takes a dim view
of Veterans Administration ne
gotiationS to see whether its
employees can obtain addi-
tional life insurance without
benefit Of legislation by Con-
gress. VAS employe association
has been comforting with var
ious insurance firms to see If
bargain rate group life insur-
ance can be secured for its en-
ployes in addition to the poll
cies they now have under the
Federal employe life insurance
program.
At the recent interagency
advisory group meeting, csc
executive director Warren
Irons told Federal agency per-
sonnel officials that while there
is no law forbidding a Govern
ment agency to allow an outside
group life insurance program
to be undertaken for its en-
ployes, previous ones have
been plagued with administra-
tive and financial difficulties"
Mr.. Irons also contacted VA
Administrator John Gleason to
apparise him of the situation.
The csc still remembers the
various employe beneficial in
surance programs which COL
lapsed when the Government
employe life insurance law was
enacted. and the various Diff
ficulties encountered in getting
Congress to protect these pri-
vate policies.
There are indications that
the csc would prefer legisla-
ton by Congress. something
like the bill recently sponsored
by Chairman Johnston of the
Senate Civil Service Committee.

csc CANDIDATE Another
of the candidates mentioned for
the Republican vacancy on the
Civil Service Commission is
Philip Mullin Of Denver. Mr..
Mullin, 40. was administrative
assistant to Senator Allot, Re-
publican of Colorado, and later
was special assistant to Secre-
tary Of Interior Seaton from
1883 to January Of this year.
He also served as a special as
sistant to Mr.. Seaton when the
latter was Assistant Secretary
Of Defense in 1885. In both
the Defense and Interior jobs,
Mr.. Mullin handled personnel
matters for Mr.. Seaton.

Termites Have q
Equal Wings
BY BRIAN X. FINGER

Assistant Montgomery County Agent
Spring is the season for
winged termiteS to swarm, but
ants are on the wing too. Ter
mites can be identified by their
four equal-sized wings. Ants
also have four wings, but the
front pair is larger than the
hind pair. Termites also have
straight-sided bodies, while
ants have a construction in the
middle.
Termites can cause consider
able damage to wood and all
cellulose products, provided
moisture is also available. Ter
mites do not destroy So swiftly
that action can't be taken
against them. The best way
to rid your home of termit5s
is to hire a reputable pest con-
troll operator.

gardening information. This

so. Although of historical
interest, these pieces are not
scarce.
The coinage of New Bruns-
wick covered only three
years (l861, 1862. and 1861
but besides small copper
coins, 5, 10 and 20 cent
pieces in silver were issued.
The accent, scent, and 10
cent coins are not common.
Unlike the others. the
coins of Newfoundland COW
cred a wider variety and a
much longer period Q865 to
1947.
Coins issued were the l
cent in bronze; the 5, 10,
20, 25, and so cent in silver
and a 50 gold piece. This
varied coinage is gaining in
popularity with collectors
and contains a number of
scarce issues.
Besides the many earlier
issues made in relatively
small volumes, the scent
pieces of 1946 and 1947 were
minted in very small guam
titles.
The attractive little 50
gold coins, made intermit-
tently between 1865 and
1888, have an unusual fea-
ture. The denomination is
listed on the reverse as 2
dollars. 200 cents, and 100
pence, leaving no doubt as to
intended value.

of the room as possible. A
wide-angle lens can be help
full in this respect.
The best interiors usually
result from artificial lighting
and the use of tripod. With
the camera on a tripod you
can carefully study the COM
position and include all but
no more than you want.
Hand-held shots are not
often as successful. Use a
time exposure and then
paint" the room with a
floodlamp. This way you will
be able to shoot light under
tables, and light up dark
corners that would otherwise
be lost in the shadows.
When composing a room
picture make sure a chair,
lamp or other object near
the camera does not look out
of proportion to the rest of
the room.
After you have a good set
of negatives you can go ahead
with making up one or two
booklets to furnish to your
broker. The best size is about
8x10 inches. Each sheet will
have one photo on it plus
room for a caption or descrip-
ton that may be needed to
supplement the picture.
When printing the pic
ture portion of the sheet,
mask off the part for the
caption. Then later you can
project the caption onto the
proper place. while masking
off the part on which the
picture is printed.
After the prints have been
proCessed and dried, mount
them back to back in pairs
with dry mounting tissue.

Trying to sell your house?
Then let photography help
your real estate broker make
a fast sale.
AS a rule many prospects
will walk through a house
before a buyer is found.
Much of this is unprofit-
able and needless. The un-
likely prospects can be
weeded out and good ones
attracted if your broker has
a picture booklet in his office
that shows both eXteriors
and interiors of your home.
And you can provide this at
little expense, however SIM
pie your camera may be.
The first step is to make
a set of negatives. These
should include outside front
and back views and possibly
others to place emphasis on
such attractions as SWIM
ming pools. flower beds, etc.
Then make at least one in
terror view of each room.
On the outside shots be
sure to take full advantage
of the sun. Instead Of TAX
ing the picture with a flat
or overhead lighting wait un-
til the sun strikes the house
at an angle that will play up
its best features. Stand well
away from the house so that
as much of the yard as pos
sible can be included and.
again, let sunlight and shad-
ows add to the attractivenesS
of the scene.
