Curbs Urged Extended
To Civilians Overseas

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. Il
(AP). - The commander-in-
chief Of the Veterans of Foreign
Wars tonight urged the Gov
ernment to put the same
restrictions on United States
civilian employees abroad and
overseas tourists as 1t has on
servicemen.
VFW Commander Ted C.
Connell said failure to do this
could make second class citi-
zens of our servicemen abroad"
The Government has ordered
q cut in the number Of serv-
icemens' families overseas and
curtailed post exchanges and
other privileges.
Mr.. Connell. Of Kileen, Tex,
called for the action in q
speech prepared for delivery at
the VFW southern conference
here.
He said his veterans group
was not passing technical
judgment" on the seriousness
Of the outflow Of gold supply.
However" he said. "if the
gold situation is 50 serious that

the number Of dependents Of

It is only fair and equitable
that other agencies Of the
United States Government -
such as State Department en-

Mr.. Connell said equivalent
burdens and restrictions
should also be placed on United

The Bucknell Brass Ensem-
bic and the Maryland Madri-
bal Singers staged what was
literally q two-ring affair at
the National Gallery last night
as part of q meeting of the
Eastern Division Of the Music
Educators National Confer
enee.
Each group played two shows
simultaneously, the Bucknell
people in the lecture room and
the Maryland group in the
East Garden Court.
The audience made a mass
pilgrimage at the mid-point.
The justification for this was
simple enough. It enabled q
larger audience to hear the two
ensembles, and then-well,
imagine q brass ensemble In
the East Garden Court.
Both groups were excellent
for college students, most OF
whom have no intention OF
making music. or at the least
musical performance, o life
work.
!, In most cases their lack oi
professional aspirations is per-
fecly justified, and the d.
rectors Of these college organ
izations accordingly face prob
