FBI Probes
TVShow by
Rees Jurors

The question of whether
justice was obstructed when
nine members of the Melvin D
Rees, jr.. jury re-enacted the
deliberations which found him
guilty of kidnapping was under
close investigation today by the
FBI.
The investigation was or
dered by the Justice Depart

coverage of one-State opera
tions would violate the principle
that the Federal Government
can regulate only interstate
commerce. The administration
pointed out that dollar volume
is used in other laws as a
standard for determining the
interstate character of a busi-
ness, since large enterprises
presumably receive and dis
tribute goods across State lines.
In an unsuccessful effort to
mollify the opposition. the ad-
ministration agreed to exempt
stores that receive less than Is
per cent of their goods from
out-of- State sources, and also to
exempt individual stores with
annual sales below $250,0O0.
Another compromise, exclud-
ing all laundries from coverage.
won a few Southern votes for
the adminiStration-but not
enough.
Senate hearings on the wage
legislation have been COM
pleted, and the Senate Labor
Committee plans to start draft
ing a wage bill within the next
two weeks. The President
probably can count on enough
votes to push a liberal bill
through the Senate-aS it did
last year-although the House
compromises may weaken the
administrations position.
But then the Senate and
House versions must go to con-
ference for compromise of diff
ferences. The House conferees
will be sympathetic to the ad-
ministration, but the full House
probably would reject any con-
ference bill that went much
beyond the measure passed
yesterday.
Dollar Angle Hit
The House may be adamant
about rejecting any version
basing coverage on dollar VOL
ume rather than multistate
operations. Conservatives fear
that the 81 million cutoff in
the administration bill would
be lowered in later years, If the
dollar-volume principle ever is
established in the law.
The conservative coalitions
victory was a serious defeat
for Speaker Rayburn and the
other Democratic House lead
ers. who had committed their
prestige to the battle.
For the Kennedy admins
tration, the defeat could have
implications for beyond the
minimum wage issue. It shows
that the President cannot count
on controlling the House on
major tests. and foreshadows
trouble for the rest Of his pro-
gram.
Only 371 members Of the
House voted in the crucial test
on the administrations COM
promise proposal. On later roll
calls the number voting ranged
from 4l8 to 420. It is impos.
sible to determine, Of course
how the absentees would have
divided If they had voted. The
situation was such that the ad.
ministration probably lost some
votes on the roll calls that
would have been held on the
earlier test.

Ladies' Footwear
Styles Change

Here's good news for women
who have suffered" through
the current styles in women's
shoes. Mrs. Marion Macdonald,
All Club Agent, reports that
for the first time in three years,
designers have taken a more
sensible look at ia femme's"
footwear.
She says styles range from
the popular pointed toe of the
past several seasons to the
broad, squared toe. There will
be more "in-between" heels than
we've had in many a season.
While some will be styled for
general wear, others will be for
dress-up occasions.
There are three "style famil-
les" in the silhouette picture,
according to Mrs. Macdonald,
the pointed toe, the crescent or
narrow, flattened oval, and
squared toe.
There is new interest in
feathers too, she says. Polish
ed leather, suede, grained leath-
er, patent LEATHER and lustre
leather are all in the fashion
picture, and as colorful as the
rainbow.

begins at $3.50 pm, is one dol
lar and a half.
With fioodlights focused on
the face of this mysterious
monument, it seems as though
the expression of the Sphinx
changes as the story unfoldS.
Other voices, mostly of the
pharaohs or high priests, join
in the performance. At one
point the memory of the Sphinx
fails him and he forgets the
name of a certain pharaoh. An
other voice, that of a palace
maiden, interrupts and comes
to his aid.
Attractive, dark-eyed Egyp-
tian girls, with graceful fea-
lures reminiscent of the beau
tiful Nefertiti, have been spe-
cially selected to seat the
audience and act as tourist
guides.
The Son ct Lunliere display
at the pyramids was begun at
the end of 1860 at a cost OF
three million dollars. The re-
cording of the European pro-
gram was made in English,
French and German studios. A
similar program is planned for
some of the other magnificent
ancient Egyptian sites such as
the Valley of the Kings in
Luxor and the Temple OF
Karnak.

Tuesday, October second is
Child Health Day in most of
the United States.
But every parent knows that
every day is child health day
in the properly regulated home.
The annual observance merely
serves to remind us of some
basic h alth practices that
should be observed the year
around.
The fundamentals of child
health are simple-diet, rest,
exercise, immunizations against
communicable diseases, regular
trips to the doctor and the den
tist for checkups.
Nutrition is seldom a problem
if meals are planned to include
something from each of the
four basic food groups-milk
and dairy products; meats, in
cluding eggs and poultry; veg
etables and fruits; bread and
cereals. Many children are in
clined to be choosy about foods,
to establish violent prejudices
against certain basic edibles.
AS long as something from each
of the four groups is consum-
ed, the food prejudices usually
aren't serious and often are for
gotten as the child grows older.
The growing child burns up
much more energy than most
adults and regular rest is inn
portant to allow the body to
recoup. The battle over nap
time that goes on every after
noon in hundreds of homes US
ually is unnecessary. Insist on
a period of rest, in bed, for
small children. They will sleep
if they need it. Early bedtime
at night, despite the attractions
of television, also is important
to good health.
Exercise usually isn't prob
lem for the active small child.
He gets plenty of it. If a child,
as he grows older, tends to be-
come sedentary and avoid phys
ical sports and games, this also
isn't too serious. Parents can
often encourage participation by
making a game of physical ac-
tivity, by playing catch or go
ing swimming with the child.
No amount of parental urging
can alter the fact that some
boys and girls are good ath-
letes while others aren't. Par
ents can help those with little
natural athletic ability by en-
couraging and praising their ef-
forts, by enrolling the child at
the 'Y" and be encouraging,
participation on park and church
league teams, that are much less

 In the memory of most of us the fourth of July has been day of re- taxation celebrated at beaches and ball-parks. Before that it was cele- brated in picnic groves and at na- tura1 shrines with bands playing, church bells ringing and orators or ating. Recently, Q definite trend to return to this older and more solemn observance of: the anniversary of in- dependence has been developing.
 Comparatively sraall groups of peo- pie gather in places of historic sig nj e=cance. listen to a band play pa- triotic songs9 hear speakers eulogize the founding fathers and the politi- cal philosophy of our nation.
 The reasons for this restoration are obscure. It nay be that people feel that it is safer not to drive on holiday, or it nay indicate a pref-

be Q good trend.
 It should be remembered, however, that there is r1ore to patrio tisrll than sa1uting the flag and honoring the symbols of liberty. Patriotism is a love for country which does not stop short of personal sacrifice. The love is zlotivated by an intellectual appre- ciation of how r-uch an individual owes to this country. It is based on the realization of what it has given hin, is giving hin now and guarantees for the future. In order of importance it is next after one's love for God.
 It would seen that fruitful ob-- serva1lce of Independence Day would de- pend on soI1e real thinking. What has this nation given to it's citizens? Many People my conclude that the ill., portant benefits 6f the United States are atericl-prosperity, corfort and the like. Others will look rlore deop- ly to discover the dignity that the United States bestoWs on the individ- ual. It guarantees hin freedom of thought, expre ssion, worship; it pro- tects his rights to life, to represen- tation in Legislation, to private pro- perty, to self-deterr1ina tion. Some gifted people nay think even nore deeply to arrive at Q recognition of even greater benefits to notivate deep love for country.
 Love for country, like love for God and love for family, is expressed not by saying but by doings It my seen that there is little laf5tto be done.

The Virginia branches of the
National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People
have asked the United States
attorney general to seek "imme-

ward County public schools.
Delegates meeting here in a
convention which ended yester-

break down racial barriers in
employment and other fields.
The group proposed a mas
sive MISREPRESENTATION drive

become the first Virginia Negro
candidate Of this century to
seek a seat in Congress next

Prince Edward County schools
were mentioned frequently dur
ing the three-day convention.
The Southern Virginia county
closed its public schools two
years ago rather than submit
to racial indignation.

Go-Eosy Plan
On u. S. 40

The chairman of the Mary
land Commission on Interracial
Problems and Relations has in
dorsed Gov. Tawes' method of
trying to solve the racial prob
lem along Maryland highways.
William c. Rogers. ST., chair
man of the commission, issued
a statement today backing Gov.
Tawes' "go-easy" method of
dealing with the States Negro
problem.
Those who have been in
close contact with the segrega-
ton issue are aware that Gov
Tawes and his aides have been
working quietly and effectively
toward a solution of the prob
lem in the U. S. 40 corridor"
said Mr.. Rogers. Significant
progress has been made. but
if a final solution is TO be
found, the extremes on both
sides must be avoided" he
added.
Mr.. Rogers indicated that
meetings with representatives
of restaurants and hotel opera
tors are under way; efforts to
enlist the aid of community
leaders in the affected areas
have been successful although
unpubliciAed.'
Gov Tawes' primary aim is
to solve a conflict which is
distressing to all Marylanders,
not merely to align himself
with the angels for political
advantage. His courage in
applying his energies to the
solution Of the problem. rather
than to promote a political
advantage. is to be admired, +"
he concluded.
