THEY'RE FILLING A GREAT GAP
7Lefthonded Dentists
To Get Diplomas

BALTIMORE, June 2 (Ap)
Here they come, world. Just
what you've always wanted
Seven lefthanded dentists.
They are among the 80 den
tistry students being graduated
next week by the Baltimore
college of dental surgery, q
branch of the University Of
Maryland.
Lefthanded dentists previ-
ously have been scarce.
There is a good reason
Dental equipment until recent
ly was manufactured exclusive
iy for righthanders.
Prof. Gardner Foley of the
dentistry school has no expla-
nation for the high ratio Of
lefthanders at his school. II
is about twice the national
average Of lefthanders.

said Is minutes before the post
ponement was announced.
The explosion, when 1t Is
detonated, is expected to blow
a hole in the ionosphere, a layer
of radioactive dust and meta
particles just beyond the Strato-
sphere. The stratosphere re-
fleets long-distance radio COM
munication waves as a mirror
reflects light.
If the weather is clear, the
flash is expected to be visible
in Hawaii.
The high-altitude bomb test,
when it comes, may cause a
communications blackout that
could ground commercial air
travel west of Honolulu for up
to 81 hours.
Gilbert Mccoy, regional pub
lie affairs officer for the Fed
eral Aviation Agency, said the
agency will have no alterna-
tive but to cancel flights If
communications are disrupted
as expected.
In Washington, meanwhile,
the Atomic Energy Commits

AS in the Biblical admoni-

estimate is that altogether in

American children will be born

After 81 years of recording
the words of four Presidents,
Jack Romagna, the official
White House stenographer, is
out of a job. He was fired yes
terday by Press Secret ary
Pierre Salinger.
They told me they were
making a change in their re-
porting system" he said. I'm
stunned" He said he had no
idea exactly why he was fired.
To replace him in turning
out stenographic transcripts of
news conferences and speeches
in Gregg shorthand, the White
House has hired a Washington
firm using stereotype machines,
the Anderson Reporting Co.
Mr.. Romagna, 81, received
his notice shortly after he re-
ported to work yesterday morn
ing.

Salinger's office" he said. Il

him he would be delighted to

Government employment, Mr..
Romagna said.
Mr.. Salinger said the prin-

was to acquire the services of

NEW YORK. June 2 (AP).-
At a small shipboard cham
payne dinner party tomorrow,
the only King ever to abdicate
the throne of Great Britain
voluntarily and the woman for
whom he did it will celebrate
their silver wedding anniver-
sary.
I'VE made it last" the
Duke and Duchess of Windsor
responded, almost in unison,
just before embarking yeSter-
day on the liner United States
for Europe. They had been
asked whether they recalled
predictions that their marriage
would be short-lived.
One June 8, 1887, in a
friends chateau in France, the
man who had ruled England
for 324 days as Edward VIII
and Mrs. Wallis Simpson were
married.
He surrendered the crown
and an income Of more than
SO million a year to marry the
twice divorced American COM
moner. His love brought him a
life of wandering from one
fashionable location to an
other-Paris, the Riviera and
New York, punctuated only
rarely by an unofficial visit to
London.
Are we happy?" He repeated
a reporters question. I'VE GER
tainly are. Just look at us. We
look happy, don't we?"
Both were smiling.
They did not discuss the
events of their romance, which
shocked a nation on December
2, 1886. The British press had
imposed self-censorship on re-
porting the courtship and only
when it had reached the crisis
give up the throne or Mrs.
Simpson - did the British
people learn what the rest of
the worlds newspaper readers
had known for some time.
The public and political re-
action, the Duke noted in his
memoirs several years later,
left a community riven and
divided" But the crown is a
symbol of unity and voluntary
allegiance" he wrote, and:
1T is for this reason that l
reject the notion put forward by
some that, faced with a choice

Britain Seeks
French OK on
Market Entry
Macmillan Meets
De GuuIIe Today to
Urge Softer Stund

PARIS, June 2 (AP).-Prime
Minister Macmillan is expected
to urge President de Gaulle to-
day to soften his stand on Brit
aims entry into the prosperous
European common market.
Britain's application for
membership in the economic
community was certain to get
a full airing during the talks
scheduled to begin late today
when Mr.. Macmillan arrives
for an overnight visit.
/ Negotiations going on in
Brussels between Britain and
the six common market mem
bers have advanced a step with
British agreement to apply
common market tariffs on in
dustrial goods from the Com
monwealth nations Of Canada,
Australia and New Zealand.
Political Union an Issue
The goods now enter Britain
under a observation-disclosures
tariff system. Gen. de Gaulle
has been reported opposed to
any terms for Britain's entry
into the economic community
that would continue her eco
nomic preferences for the Com
monwealth family.
The two leaders were ex-
pected to hash over other
problems before Mr.. Macmillan
flies back to Britain tomorrow
One issue facing Gen. De
Gaulle and Mr.. Macmillan is
the proposal for q European
political union which the six
, market members have beer
! studying as an annex or re.
] enforcement to their economic
community.
Gen. De Gaulle has been
holding out for a loose con-
federation which would pre-
serve national sovereignties.
French officials believe Brit
ain can much more readily join
that sort of political union
than the supernatural type
currently urged by Belgium and
Holland.
French Explain Views
Belgium and Holland re-
portedly are willing to settle
for a looser form of union If
Britain joins. From the Bene-
lux viewpoint, British member
ship would bring the union into
better balance and remove the
threat of French German
hegemony.
In reply to criticism here and
abroad. French officials insist
that they are not trying to block
Britain's entrance into the
Common Market. France con-
tends that Britain must &C
cept the Common Market treaty
of Rome as a full member. with
all the obligations as we'll as
the privileges.

A|giers Truce Move
Confirmed by France
Secret Army
Offers Plan
To MosIems

ALGIERS, June 2 (AP).-
Official French sources reported
today that the terrorist Euro
pean Secret Army Organization
and the Moslem front of Ma
tional Liberation definitely
have made contact on the
future of Algeria.
The French sources said
word of "feeler" contacts was
received in a message addressed
to French officials in Algiers
in connection with the mysteri-
Gus Secret Army truce, now in
its third day.
The message was Official"
the informants said. Con-
facts have been established.
They are preliminary and on a
low level but they exist"
Rumors about such contacts
have been sweeping the city for
the past five days, but this was
the first solid word of their
existence. The Secret Army Or
ganization repeatedly is seeking
to negotiate directly with the
Algerian nationalist on the
future Of the European mi
nority in an independent AL
geria.
Truce Occasionally Broken
Some sources said the Secret
Army called the truce. only &C.
casionally broken. to impress
on the Moslems that peace in
Algeria depends on the terror
ist organization, not the
French government of President
Charles de Gaulle.
According to some govern
ment officials, the contacts
were initiated by the Secret
Army which is said to be of.'Hr-
ing to halt terrorism and to
appeal to Europeans to remain
in Algeria and thus avoid the
country's economic collapse.
The Secret Army Is reported
to be demanding in exchange
a special status for Algeria's
cities which have large numbers
Of Europeans and q strong
European representation on
bodies concerned with economic
and even political affairs.
The nationalist command of
Algiers continues to show hos
tility to the proposals, it was
reported. But French sources
said the nationalist leadership
in nearby areas east, south and
west of AlgierS, were willing to
support the negotiations.
MOslem Study Proposals
The gist of the preliminary
contacts was reported to have
been submitted to the National
list government in exile in
Tunis. The Algerian revolution

in the Libyan capital OF Tripoli,
may act on the proposals
within days.
Unconfirmed reports in AL
giers said the Secret Army was

truce and en- appeal to the
Europeans to have conf
dence." The appeal may be dis
tributed as early as Tuesday.
Parallel with the reported
contacts. representatives of AL
geria's European business
groups have been holding
sessions with Moslem
officials of the provisional
executive which is preparing
the July l self-determination
vote.
Abderrahmane Fares, head Of

MopsUpAfter
Exciting Week
Investors Wary
As WuII Street
Catches Breath

NEW YORK, June 2 (AP).
Wall Street broke its tradi-
tional Saturday calm today to
mop up after one of the most
exciting weeks in its history.
Although closed to trading
as usual. the New York Stock
Exchange instructed brokers to
have members Of their stats
on its floor.
The job is to handle the
mountainous paper work that
piled up during the heavy
trading that accompanied the
biggest plunge and the biggest
rally since the crash year of
1929.
Employees will be working
overtime in brokers' offices,
too. in an effort to catch up.
The market, although stalled
yesterday in a recovery drive,
came out of the turbulent week
about where it started.
Investors Cautious
Profit-takers, who bought
Monday and Tuesday morning
on the slump, started selling
yesterday and turned a whop-
ping rally into a moderate de-
cline. And the fact that a
week end was ahead made in
vestors cautious.
AS a result, the market will
enter next week at an impor-
tant crossroads.
Some Wall Street experts
felt that the market was in
need of a rest after its Strenu-
Gus exertions.
I'VE ought to start off all
right and then have a decline
Tuesday or Wednesday, testing
the lows of last Tuesday" was
the prediction of William r.
White, analyst for the broker
age firm, Hornblower g. Weeks.
Demand should then check
the decline. That would afford
an opportunity to build a base
and have summer advance"
Brokers Watch Trend
Benson B. Sloan of Harris.
Upham g. Co. agreed, saying:
Historically, it appears that
a rally that starts from such a
high volume climax as that of
Tuesday is apt to lose its steam
and possibly test the old lows
after two or three days.
Another broker, Kenneth
Ward of Hayden, Stone & Co.,
said "A good part of the real
money is still sitting on the
sidelinS waiting to see which
way that cat is going to jump"
Yesterdays trading was a !
mild affair compared with the
rousing sessions of Monday,
Tuesday and Thursday. The
market was closed Wednesday
for Memorial Day.
Trading dropped to 5.76 mil
lion shares, which normally
would be considered very heavy,
but it was light against the
l0.71 million Thursday, 14.75 |
million Tuesday and 9.35 mil !
lion Monday.

CARACAS, Venezuela, June 2
CAP).-The marine garrison
at Puerto Cabello naval base,
1875 miles west of Caracas has
revolted. government sources
said today. So far there has
been no fighting.
The crews of warShips at the
base refused to join in the up
rising against President Romula
Betancourt's government, and
national guardsmen at Puerto
Cabello also remained loyal, the
informants said.
The outbreak followed by al
most a month the quick COL

Communists.

Government sources said all
electric power to the port area
of Puerto Cabello has been cut
off and that the rebels are

carupano's 4OO-man marine
garrison and so military police
revolted early on May 4. but
the uprising collapsed the next
day when government planes
bombed and strafed their
strongholds and army forces

A deciding factor, apparent
ly, was the failure of the
