political trouble with the Ma

Mr.. Steers, whose wife is JAG

planning to run for Congress
as a Republican.
He said today he hasn't fl
nally made up his mind but
that he expects to seek the Re
publican nomination for Mary
lands Congress-at-large post
next year.
If Mr.. Steers wins the nom
nation, he can expect the
President will be lined up with
his Democratic opponent in the
Maryland race.

supported Republican Charles
Matthias in his successful fight
to unseat Democrat John Foley

As Interim Secretary

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Oct. 5 (AP).-The United
States today was reported to
have agreed in the main to a
Soviet plan for picking a tenn
porary United Nations secre-
tary general. Support was
building up for U Thant of
Burma to take over the posi-
ton.
The United States stand in
creased hopes that a way will
be found to break the United
States-Soviet deadlock with its
threat of paralysis for the ad-
ministrative arms of the world
organization.
Informed diplomats said the
United States agreed with res
ervation to Soviet insiStence
that the Security Council NOM
mate the successor to the late
Dag Hammarskjold.
The reservations are that the
United States and the Soviet
Union first agree on the candi-
date and on his powers, in
formants said.
U. S. Views Forwarded
The United States stand was
conveyed to the Soviet delega-
ton by other ENJOYS. There was
no immediate Soviet reaction.
To avert the Soviet veto of a
secretary general candidate in

DAMASCUS, Syria. Oct. 5
(AP).-Syria reopened Damas-
Gus Airport today and the gov
eminent ordered private citi-
zens to turn in their arms as life
returned to almost normal after
the revolution.
The airport was closed to pre-
vent Egypt from flying in REIN
forcements when the rebellion
broke out last week against
President Nasser. The uprising
dissolved the merger of Syria
and Egypt under the flag of the
United Arab Republic.
With Damascus quiet, the
government settled down to pre-
pare for elections within the
next four months or less, as
promised by Premier Mamoun

gime.

Britain Trims
lis Bank Rate

LONDON, Oct. 5 (AP).-The
British treasury today cut the
Bank of England rate half a
point-from 7 per cent to 612
per cent.
The Bank of England rate
sets the pattern for interest
on loans throughout Britain.
On July IS it was jumped
from 5l2 to 7 per cent as part
of a Conservative government
h olddown on inflationary
spending.
The higher rate attracted a
flow of investment funds from
abroad and quickly had the
desired effect of boistering the
value of the pound sterling on
international exchanges.
Recently the pound has been
lowering at around $2.8lla.
Before the moves in July,
which included sharp increases
in domestic sales taxes, it had
sunk almost to $2.78.
Today's cut apparently re-
fleets a belief in government
circles that a mild easing of
credit is in order.
The treasury also is known to
be uneasy about floods of what
British economists call short
term hot money from foreign
investors seeking the high Brit
iSh interest yields.
Whenever the British econ
omy suffers a setback these in
vestors tend to withdraw their
funds hurriedly, severely I'M

Fourth, public assistance al

that children in need of food

Commissioner John B. Dun
can today outlined a new well
fare program for the District
aimed both at serving the needy
and at cutting public costs.
His ideas, presented to the
Board of Commissioners at an
afternoon meeting, encom-
passed these fresh approaches:
First, putting older, partially
disabled welfare recipients to
work caring for the children OF
mothers who now are kept or

Younger mothers draw aid for

category in which recipients
have expanded fourfold over the

Make Sampling
Second, a pilot team of five
investigators and one welfare
specialist would make a sci
entific sampling" of families
on relief. The purpose would
be to prove or disprove the
charge that there are freeload-
'ers on the city rolls. This in
vestigation was ordered by
Congress. But investigators
must be paid within the current
budget. To maintain the pace
of present investigations of re-
cipients, city officials are con-
sidering creating five new po-
sitions which might be paid
through SURPRISES in specific
activities.

Red Police in Berlin
Fire Across Wall
Tension Up
AfterSecond
Such Clash

BERLIN, Oct. S (AP).-Com-
munist police fire across Ber-
Inns Iron Curtain, the second
such incident in less than "a
hours, added to the trigger ten
sion of this divided city today.
West Berlin police said Com
muniSt peoples police threw
rocks across the wall at Ber-
nauerstrasse today and a Red
police officer fired a single shot
from his submachine gun at a
West Berlin policeman. No one
was hurt.
Last night West and East
Berlin police traded fire across
the border at Bernauerstrasse
and an East German policeman
was wounded.
The first incident occurred
during a chase of two East Ger
man refugees across border
rooftops. One refugee, crying
freedom" plunged to his
death when he jumped five
stories and missed a West Ber-
lin firemen's net. The other
refugee was captured by the
East Germans and taken away.
Brandt Seeks Help
AS a result of the two Incl
dents, Mayor Willy Brandt dis
closed he is discussing with the
Western powers the reinforce
ment of West Berlin police to
make the Western sector Dor
ders secure. The shooting Of
the East German policeman
was expected to raise a diplo-
matte storm.
The United States called on
the Soviets to avoid shooting
incidents which could seri-
ously jeopardize peace and the
public order in Berlin"
State Department Press Of
ficer Joseph w. Reap said in
Washington that the United
States view was that the West
Berlin police acted in self
defense in firing back as the
Communists shot at refugees
fleeing the Soviet sector of
Berlin.
West police gave this account
of today's incident:
Vopos Communist police
threw rocks across the wall into
West Berlin. One rock smashed
the windshield of a truck on
the roadway. A West police
patrol car was called, and an
officer went up to the wall and
called out to the Vopos to stop
throwing rocks.
A Vopo officer approached
the wall. aimed his Submachine
gun and shouted go back"
Then the Vopo fired at the
West police officer.
The bullet missed, and police
on both sides drew back.
Most Serious Clash
The two Shootings were the
most serious since the Com
munists began erecting their
wall of barbed wire and con-
crete blocks across the heart of
Berlin on August Is.
BernauerstrasSe is about the
TOUGHEST point along the Is
mile wall. The houses there are
in Communist territory, the
sidewalks in the West.
The Communists blocked the
lower street doors and windows
weeks ago, and then blocked
up the upper windows when
East Berliners continued to
escape by jumping from the
buildings.
Meanwhile, the East German
administration in an announce
ment published only in local
editions of the controlled press
along the East German border
ITO miles west of Berlin ad-
mitted it is carrying out a mass
evacuation of people from a
3-mile-wide border zone.

Wild Onions
Pose Problem
Says Expert

State College, Miss. : One
reason wild onions are SO hard
to control with chemicals is
most of the time they are
not onions at all, but wild gar
lie. Although only an expert
can tell them apart, chemical
weed control measures recon-
mended for one will not kill
the other.
DR.. G.. G. McWhorter, USDA
plant Psychologist at the Del
ia Branch Experiment Station,
called for 200 wild onion plant
samples from a wide area in
Mississippi. The plant sam
pies were collected along
highways and from lawns,
gardens fields and orchards
in 80 counties. Replanting'
them in a nursery, he grew
them to maturity for positive
naturalization. On careful eX-
animation, all except two
plants out of the 200 proved
to be wild garlic.
While NH will control wild
onions, it does not work So
well with wild garlic. Or. Nc
WhOrter says, based on limit
ed work, the ester form of 2,
4-d will probably provide best
control of wild garlic until
other herbicides are available.
Differences between the two
plants are minor. Leaves of
wild garlic arise along the
seed stalk while those of wild
OIlIOIl nave d common point
OF origin at the base Of the
plant. This feature is the one
most easily recognized in dis
tinguishing between the two.
