Nursing Home
Appeal Fails

The Montgomery County
zoning Appeals Board yester-
day upheld refusal of a license
renewal to a woman for opera
tion of her Bethesda nursing
home.
The renewal, sought by Mrs.
Doris Mae Hissey for the Ro-
pine Nursing Home, at 1907
River road, was rejected last
fall by the county health Off
Ger and licenses director.
They charged. among other
things. that the home had been
operated without sufficient food
or nursing staff.
Mrs. Hissey, the board noted,
maintained that the home was
well-run and that patients were
contented and well-fed.
The board held that the Ii
cense refusal was fully justi-
fled"

U.S.. Seeks Peace,
Stevenson Says

GENEVA, July IS (AP).-
Adlai E. Stevenson, United
States Ambassador to the
United Nations, said today the
quest for a disarmament and
arms control treaty with Rus
Sia remains one of the top
objectiveS of the United States
Government.
I'VE have no higher prior
ity," he told a news conference
before boarding a train for
Rome. Until we have made
progress in this field, We will
not have discharged our duty
to mankind"
He expressed disappointment
about the deadlock in the
Geneva nuclear test ban talks
and the lack of progress in the
American-Soviet talks for ar
ranging a new general dis
armament conference. But he
insisted the West must per-
severe in its efforts to seek
agreement despite all setbacks.
He said he planned to spend
10 days in Italy before return
ing to Washington via Paris
early in August.

PiIlion Tells Reds
To Expect Defeat
BY the Associated Press

A New York Congressman
who wants the United States
to declare war against commu-
nism today warned Russia s
leaders against expecting a
peaceful victory in their strug-
gle with the free world.
In a letter to the Soviet
newspaper Izvestia, Repre-
sentative Pillion, Republican of
New York. said any expectation
that the United States will sur
render to communism is a seri-
Gus miscalculation.
When the United States
awakens, when it decides to
wage a war against the Com
munist parties using your own
weapons against you, your
era will be at an end," wrote
Mr.. Pillon.
He disclosed the contents of
the letter in an address to a
captive nations group ooserv-
ing Captive Nations Week,
which is designed to call at
tention to the countries that
have come under Communist
control.

on the ground that they con-
flicted with income tax laws.
The Commonwealth of Penn
sylvania is the ultimate bene-
ficiary of the two valid trusts
in the year 2444.
The government argued that
Mr.. Holden set up the trusts
to prove the economic theories
about vast accumulations of
money through compound in
test payments. Such a vast
fortune would be accumulated,
the government said, that the
tax base of the Nation would
be destroyed.
Also, the government claimed
that another of r. Holdeen's
purposes was "abolishing the
present economic system of this
country"
No one, not even Mr.. Hol-
deems attorneys, has estimated
the possible value of the trusts
if all seven were to continue to
maturity. One fiscal expert
testified in a lower court that
the fiv Ell ,000-year trusts would
be worth about $9,988, $50, ,000,.
100000 (nine quadrillion, nine
hundred and eighty -eight tril-
lion, three hundred and eighty
billion dollars.
Mr.. Holden, author of sew
eral books on his financial
thinking, said he set up the
trusts Ito teach a lesson in
saving-as Benjamin Franklin
had attempted to do"
Franklin, taking advantage
of compound interest payment;
on such investments, set ur
200-year charitable trusts o1
$4,000 each for the cities OF
Boston and Philadelphia. Nc
figure was given for the orig
inal Holden investments.
The appeals court held that
in the case of Mr.. Holdeen's s
two remaining trusts, hi
guarded against any illegalitS
when he included a provision
giving immediate charitable
beneficiaries all other income
which is not lawfully subject
to accumulation"

Africa Rebuff
OfWiIIiums

JOHANNE sBURG. South

10 II A NNE SBURG, South
Africa, July IS (AP). - The
South African government to-
day was accused by political
rivals Of making phony excuses
for barring United States AS
Sistant Secretary of State for
African Affairs, G. Mennen
Williams, from visiting this
country.
The government had claimed
Mr.. Williams request to visit
here in August would be in
opportune because cabinet min
listers were away during the
Parliament recess.
j. L. Horak, general secretary
of the opposition United Party.
called that a "fatuous" excuse.
He charged Premier Henrik
Verwoerd'S White Supremacy
government did not want Mr..
Williams here while it was bat
ting the United Nations over
inundated South West Africa
and with the prospect of ma
tional elections in October.
The rebuff to Mr.. Williams
made front page bannerlines
in all South African newspapers
regardless of their political
leanings.
The Johannesburg English
language Daily Mail said with
even less tact than usual the
government has asked Mr.. Will
liams not to come to this coun-
try during his forthcoming
visit to southern Africa
whether or not the reasons
given by the government are
valid, the context in which
they have been put forward is
certainly unfortunate .. if this
is a fair example of the new
republics diplomacy it does
not augur well for our relations

COP. Chairman
Guilty Of Libel

MARSHALL, N. c., July Is
(AP).-Defense attorneys for
William E. Cobb will appeal a
jury's verdict that the State
Republican chairman libeled
three election officials when he
wrote two letters charging vote
fraud in Madison County.
The 13-day trial ended here
yesterday with the jury's deci-
sion that Mr.. Cobb libeled three
Marshall precinct election Off
cials. The jury awarded Zeno
Ponder, precinct registrar, $40,-
900 actual and punitive dam
ages. Two election judges,
Democrat Oren Rice and Re-
publican Frank Runnion, were
awarded token damages of 81
each. They sought 100000
each.
The jury's verdict upheld the
election officials contention
that Mr.. Cobb committed civil
libel in the letters. Mr.. Cobb
released both to the press.
Republicans long have aimed
their political guns at Madison
County.
Mr.. Cobb, 3S, a Morganton
lumber broker, wrote former
Gov, Luther Hodges on Novem-
Der 10, 1859, complaining of
ballot box stuffing and vote
fraud in the Marshall precinct.
On May 6, 1860, Mr.. Cobb wrote
the State Elections Board say
ing he was protesting in ad-
vance the voting procedures in
Madison County in the general
election November 8, 1860.
For the first letter, Mr..
Ponder was awarded $4,000
actual damages and $4,000 for
punitive damages. For the sec
ond letter, the jury awarded
Mr.. Ponder $4,000 for actual
damages and $4,000 for punitive
damages.

The Prince Georges County
Chamber of Commerce is going
to push for the appointment of
an administrative assistant to
aid the county commissioners,
William G. Norris, chamber
president, said yesterday.
The five commissioners, all
elected. have said they see no
need for an administrator.
An administrator was rec
commended recently in reports
of the chamber of commerce
and a county fiscal advisory
committee established by the
Maryland General Assembly.
Speaking on the WTOP City
Side program, Mr.. Norris said
an administrator would handle
day-to-day routine business of
the county.
Mr.. Norris emphasized the
administrator would not be a
county manager, and full au-
thority still would be vested in
the elected commissioners.
I'VE have no complaints with
the way things Qocal govern
menD are now," Mr.. Norris
said.
Asked about proposed laws for
integration of public accommo-
dations, S. Walter Bogley, jr.,

ber of Commerce, said he felt
there would be no problem

Senate Seat

AUSTIN. Tex, Mar. 4 (AP) =.
The list of candidates for the
Senate seat vacated by Vice
President johnson today took
on the length of a freight train.
All a person had to do to
run was to pay a $50 filing fee.
A total of II had filed, and
Secretary Of State Frank Lake
said several others had tele-
phoned they were en- route to
the State Capital to pay the
fee.
Mr.. Lake explained that his
office closes at noon on Satur-
day, but the law gives candi-
dates until midnight to nail
down places on the April 4
special election ballot.
A new State law provides
that the eventual winner has
to poll more than half the vote.
That practically assures a run
off.
The candidates represent
practically every walk of life.
A woman minister is among
them.
The contest pits one "offi-
cial" Republican against a field
made UP mostly Of Democrats,
although party affiliation is
not listed on applications or the
ballot.
The State Republican Execu-
tive Committee has Endorsed
John G. Tower. former college
government professor, who ran
a strong race against Mr.. John,
son in the November general
election.
Mr.. Tower is one of a dozen
hard-running candidates now
stumping the State. Another is
