Fire-Ravaged
 British Liner Dara Sinks - PIP Missing
By James Moore O'Ferrall

MAMMA, Bahrain lR - The burned-out and deserted wreck of the British liner Dara sank to- day as salvage ships were trying to beach her. The owners issued a new casualty toll raising the number that may have been lost in the Persian Gulf disaster to PIP. Two were Americans.
 The figures were issued here by Gray Mackenzie, agents for the line.
 The company's breakdown: 580 passengers, 132 crew, estimated so visitors, total 772. Survivors 560. Missing PIP.
 An official of Gray Mackenzie said the number of visitors was approximate because they did not have to register when they came aboard at the Arabian port of Dibai, 300 miles east of this oil port.
 Most of the missing were Asians, but an American employe of the Caltex Oil Co.,, L. V. Dorsch of Brooklyn, N. Y, and his wife, Vala, were aboard. They were reported on their way to Cali fornia to retire after 35 years with Caltex.
 The 5,300-ton Dara was enroute from Basra to Bombay early Sat urday when she collided with an- other ship in storm. The Dara headed for open water to avoid being blown ashore in heavy winds, but at 4:43 a. m. an ex- plosion in the engine room rock ed the liner and fire broke out. The flames spread rapidly, and passengers and crew abandoned ship

Adolf Eichmann Nears Hour of
 Trial in Jerusalem
By Relman Morin

JERUSALEM LR - Adolf Eich- mann today neared the fateful hour that will bring him face to face in court with Jewish sur vivors of the Nazi extermination camps - including some who claim to have suffered person. ally at his hands.
 Eichmann was chief of the Gestapo's Jewish affairs section during World War II. He goes on trial before a special panel of three Israeli judges in Jerusalem Tuesday morning.
 Israel, in a massive, 15-count indictment, accuses him of "crimes against the Jewish people and crimes against hu- manity" Death is the maximum penalty.
 The second paragraph of the indictment reads:
 "The accused, together with others during the period, 1889 to 1945, caused the killing of mil lions of Jews in his capacity as the person responsible for the execution of the Nazi plan for the physical extermination of the Jews, known as the final solution of the Jewish problem
 Part of the support for this charge comes from PAP papers, letters and reports captured in the foreign office of Nazi Germany during the war.
 The state has scheduled 39 witnesses to testify. Of these, 13 met Eichmann personally during the dark years when - the pro- secution alleges - he was carry ing out "the final solution"
 Eichmann's chief counsel is Dr. Robert Servatius, 66, a widely known West German lawyer.
 It is generally believed that Servatius will open his defense on such legal points as the argu- ment that the acts of which Eich- man was accused did not take place on Israeli soil and that Israeli did not in fact exist as an inedependent state at that time.

Post Office Department Will Add 10000
 Employes to Its Payroll

WASHINGTON lR - The Post Office Department has announced plans to add 10000 regular en- ployes to it's payroll by limiting the hours substitute employees can work.
 Substitute workers will be limit ed to 40 to A hours a week, eff fectiVe July 1, under an order issued by Postmaster General J. Edward Day. Regular career em- ployes are limited to an 80-hour biweekly paycheck.
 Potential new positions, by the state, include Alaska AS.
 Day said some substitutes have been working so many extra hours their paychecks have been double sized. He called this unfair to the regulars and hazard to the sub stitutes' health, an impairment of the departments efficiency, and, in the case of vehicle drivers, possible safety threat.
 The postmaster said the move was aimed at providing more regular jobs by sharing employ ment among more persons rather than paying higher salaries to some substitutes.
 Most of the 10000 jobs, he said, would be filled from existing Civil Service registers of job eli gibles. In a few communities, he said, it may be necessary to ad- vertise for applicants.

Alaskans Deeply Resent Protests Of Fishing Rights

JUNEAU R - Gov. Egan said today that Alaskan deeply re- sented" out-of-state protests over a bill which could protect resi- dent fishing rights in disaster areas.
 Fgan's statement came in reply to a telegram from Gov. Rosel lini of Washington State.
 Rosellini expressed concern last week over legislation which he said might keep out-of-state fishermen from using historic fishing areas in Alaska.
 "The reaction in Alaska to your telegram was precisely my own reaction," Egan wired Rosellini today.
 "For decades Alaskans sought and fought for statehood in order to free themselves from outside controls largely centered in the state of Washington.
 These at various times in our long period of territoriality have included control, or effort to con- trol, our fisheries, our shipping, our labor organizations, our in- dustry and our political deci- sions.
 "In total, it was a long and sorry history of exploitation of Alaska by and for outside forces largely identified with the state of Washington.
 Ultimately this experience had the effect of uniting Alaskans in their desire for statehood and the attendent opportunity for con- trolling their own destinies.
 ''I recognize that old habits are hard to break, and consequently action by the Alaska State Leg islature resulted in a storm of protest unbecoming to the state of Washington and deeply re- sented by Alaskans."
 The bill would permit residents in areas where disaster salmon runs are predicted to petition for priority fishing rights until they are able to catch a minimum num- Der of fish for subsistence. The minimum would be an average of 1000 fish per fisherman.
 Egan said that questions raised by Rosellini also had been raised on the floor of the Legislature before final passage of the meas ure.

thank YOU! While a cour-

Questions, Answers

Question - Now that the
season is here for many
weddings, will you be kind
enough to suggest to the
brides that they make a
greater effort to write their
thank-you notes for gifts9
1t seems that in the last few
years these young men
wait months to write their
notes, or they Just don't
bother at all. For example, ]
sent a very nice gift to a
December bride and have
never received an acknowl-
edgement. Ichecked with the
shop where I bought it to
make sure it was delivered,
and they assured me it was.
This seems inexcusable to
me. Mrs. A. B. M.
Answer-Right you are! It
is inexcusable. When people
are kind enough to 60 to the
trouble and expense Of pur-
chasing a gift, the recipient is
being more than rude not to
acknowledge it as soon as
possible. Not to do so at all
is certainly not starting off
on the right foot as far as
social graces are concerned!

MODERN
MANNERS
Consideration Is important
In Warm DAYS Ahead
By CAROLYN HAGNER SHAW

The warm days during the
past week have finally made
us feel that the unpredict-
able Washington weather is
settling down to the hot days
aheadl This brings up some
questions. Do you live in a
row house? Or perhaps it's
a side by each" residence
with only a small space sep
arating the homes?
An irate lady, Mrs. r. A. H.,
has written in about making
this "close together living"
more bearable for all con-
cerned during the coming
hot, humid days. I think
this is well worth thinking
about. I'll break it down to
the questions she asked and
my answers, which are in
dented.
/. Why is it that people
are so thoughtless when it
comes to cooking on outdoor
grillS?
Due to the fact that
windows are open this time
Of year, it is the very un-
kind neighbor who does
not make every effort to
place his grill in such a
position that the smoke
will not blow into the
homes Of those living on
both sides. Nothing is
more unpleasant than to
spend an evening being
smoked out Of your own
home by the acrid fumes Of
burning hamburgers!
2. When you make every
effort to keep the grounds
around your house in nice
condition, how do you han
die the neXt-door neighbor
who doesn't give a hang
about the appearance Of his
place?
The only recourse here
is to be perfectly frank.
Ask the careless neighbor
to please join in with the
rest Of you on the street
in your efforts to make the
home surroundings attrac-
tive. Litterbugs are always
with us, and some folks
just don't seem to recog-
nize how unSightly uncut
grass. broken toys and gar
bage pals lying around a
can be. Be tactful but firm
in your request. If it is
ignored, bring in some Of
the other neighborS to
back you up. Just plain
embarrassment should fl
nally make the wrongdoer
wake up and do something.
8. How can you ask any
Of the following bad habits
to be corrected without cauS-
ing hard feelings2 The one
who runs his lawn mower at
Z o'clock on a Sunday morn
ing: the parents who allow
their active, and loud, Off
spring to come roaring out
into the yard at the same
hour; those who turn their
TV, radio and Hi-Fi sets on
full blast at all hours of the
day and night; the depart
ing guests who upon leaving
at l O'Clock in the morning
do so with shrieked goodbys,
loud talk and honking Of
horns.
AS I said in answer to
the last question, be frank
and quietly and courteous
ly talk it over with those
guilty Of these thoughtlesS
actions. Just be sure that
you yourself never slip up!
1t is obvious that consid-
Grafton for each other Is q
must between neishbors.
