which lost everything but the
clothes they were wearing. The
Southern Maryland Oil Co. In
La Plata also is collecting
money.

ported.
She said the Red Cross al

tial homes for Mrs. Jones and
her two surviving children:
One a log cabin near Benns-
vile and the other a trailer
which can be brought to the
Jones property.
Milton M. Somers, principal

but also is superintendent of
the Sunday school there.
Carol, she said, is a Red

Canadian officials cleared a
Cuban airliner to continue a
flight to Havana today with

Foregoes
Protest Sign

A traditional union protest
against Russia's subjugation of
the Hungarian freedom fighters
was toned down last night at
the request of Washington
police guarding the Soviet
Embassy.
For the seventh consecutive
year, the International Union
of Electrical Workers COM
memorated the Hungarian re-
bellion with a six-stories-high
cross of light at its head
quarters building across Six
tenth street NV. from the
Embassy.
But for the first time, no
commemorative sign was dis
played. James B. Carey, presi-
dent of the union. said police
had asked that the sign remain
out of view. He said the police
acted under State Department
instructions to protect the EN-
bassy and prevent incidents
that could aggravate the ten
sion caused by the Cuba crisis
The sign, which stayed in
the lobby of the union head
quarters, said: I'm Reverent
Memory of the Hungarian

Who Offered Their Lives fol

Doubts on Red ICBM?
Senator Humphrey said Pre-
mier Khrushchev's willingness
to move his missiles so far
from the Soviet Union for the
first time may mean that he is
not so sure of his long-range
intercontinental ballistic mis-
siles. The Senator said it has
been estimated that the ICBMs
have an efficiency rating of 25
per cent as against 80 per cent
for the shorter-range missiles.

Services Committee, said the
President has "forthrightly an
nounced to the world that this
country cannot permit this
threat to exist and expand,
The increasing aggression of the
