Focus On
Africa
BY EDDIE L. MADISON, JR.

THE COMMITTEE of Sew
enteen on Colonialism, a United
Nations inquiry group, has
agreed to begin on May 81, a
three-week visit to Africa. The
committee added Dar-es-Sal-
aam, Tanganyika, to it's timer
airy. Observers have questioned the
inclusion of Tanganyika in the
itinerary since that country has
already obtained its independence
from Britain, and from all indica-
tons, is making progress under an
African-controlled government.
The trip, during which the COM
mittee will hear petitioners, was
criticized by Jonathan B. Bingham
of the United States.
Bingham's view, it is believed,
stems from previous announce
ments that the world organization
is in dire financial straits. The
committee was set up by the Cen
eral Assembly to make a survey
aimed at carrying out the AS
sembly's directive on the ending OF
colonialism.
SINCE THE major objective OF
the Committee of IT, for all prac-
teal purposes, is to stamp out
white supremacy in Africa, the
areas which resent its efforts in.
clude those territories which are
still white-controlled. Chief among
these the Federation of Rhodesis
and Nyasaland, headed by Sir Roy
Welensky, prime minister.
The Federation includes North
ern Rhodesia, Southern Rhodesis
and Nyasaland. African national
lists in all three countries are op'
posed to the Federation. Further
their opposition has been presented
formally before the UN committee
r. A. BUTLER, Britain's Home
Secretary and recently appointed
Minister for Central African AZ
fairs, has issued a "hands Off
warning to the UN Decolonizatior
committee with the idea that the
inquiry group would be intervening
in British Government affairs.
Butler, now in charge Of rela'
tons with the Federation, begar
a three-week tour of the three
countries. Speaking in Salisbury
Southern Rhodesia, he said the
British Government still hopes tc
find a formula that will maintain
at least a form of economic as.

that Northern Rhodesia should be

He also announced that Britain
recognizes the right of Nyasaland

government, to break away from
the Federation but the (British)
Government rejected the opposi-
tons demand that the principle of

ing unit to each home with
the savings he realized over
a conventional loan.
At about the time that Mr..
Yarnick bought $50 acres
near Germantown, the AFL-
CIO was searching for a
means of entering the home
building field in the Wash
ington area. Mr.. Meany ap-
preached Mr.. Yarnick and his
lawyer, Owens Haynes, with
the idea of using union help
at Kingsview Knolls, Mr.. Var
nick's title for his project.
Agreement Reached
An agreement was reached
and Mr.. keenan, decided to
let the builder have $3.50, 900
for his houses which will sell
for about $25, 900 each.
It was decided to limit the
project to 10 homes to de-
termine If union financing
and union labor could keep
the price within normal
bounds. The homes are ap-
proved by the Federal Hous-
ing Administration and the
interest rates on the mort
cages are to be the prevail
ing FILA rates.
The homes contain three
and four bedrooms, two bath
rooms, a living room, dining
room, kitchen and play area
on half-acre lots.
Mr.. Yarnick said he is
pleased with the men work
ing on his job and feels that,
so far, the experiment has
been a success.
He said the firms he now
has doing subcontracting
work are ordinarily used to
doing jobs much larger than
home building and, therefore,
have much better equipment
to do their jobs.

Architects Stressing Indoor-O Outdoor Theme
By ANDY LANG
AP Newsfeoture Writer

The indoor -outdoor living
theme continues to get the
full treatment in newly built
homes.
Architects and builders re-
port no lessening Of interest
in the trend toward designs
which enable home owners
to enjoy outdoor living with
out leaving their property.
Home improvement con-
tractors say that q large
percentage of alterations and
additions under way and in
the planning stage are con-
cerned with the outdoors.
Across the country, the
open-air way of American
life Is reflected in more and
more outdoor cooking and
eating centers, patios, pools,
gardens and game areas.
Whether modest or elaborate,
the outdoor living center re-
quires proper lighting If it
Is to be enjoyed full time,
day and night.
Space Extended
Functional outdoor light
ing extends the living space
Of the home by turning out
side areas into nighttime
recreation spots. Lighting
also brings the beauty Of the
outdoors inside. Instead of
becoming black mirrors after
sundown, windows open up
vistas Of attractive lawn
foliage, gardens, trellises and
pathways.
outdoor fixtures and equip
ment can be obtained in
a wide variety Of designs.

type fixtures for picnic tables
and even lily-pad fixtures for
ponds.
Regardless of available. out
door living space or the
amount of lighting, the
American Home Lighting In
stitute suggests these basic
principles to follow:
l. Avoid "whitewashing"
the entire backyard or gar
den in imitation of daylight.
Use contrasts of light and
shade by accenting points of
interest, such as a we'll
shaped tree, a rock garden or
a piece of statuary.
2. Use indirect light re-
flected from white exterior
Evening star., 1962-03-17

walls, fences or driveway to
provide much of the general
illumination.
8. Conceal light sources so
that the lighted object and
not the source itself is seen.
Use shades or hide fixtures
behind shrubbery or reflec-
tors.
4. Use colored lighting
sparingly but effectively.
Vibrant colors are often
effective in pools or foun-
tains. Flower beds look best
under white light. Green
adds depth and enhances
grass and foliage. Red lends
a campfire quality. Blue light
tones down warm colors but
Evening star., 1962-03-17

usually gives an unnatural
light and is unsatisfactory.
Yellow, insect-repellent bulbs
are appropriate for porches,
patios, terraces and at the
cooking or eating area.
Evening star., 1962-03-17

Weatherproof con nections,
flexible underground cables
and many other electrical
items designed for the out
doors are readily available.
For year-round use, out
door fixtures may be per-
manently installed on ex-
terror walls, under caves or
on posts.
Principles Set Forth
Available for seasonal use
are portable fixtures, such as
spiked yard lights which are
easily moved from one spot
to another, spotlights for
placement in tree forks or
under shrubbery, umbrella

Some officials fear, however,
that the military goods might

clashes with Thailand and

the United States is supporting
vigorously.
Mr.. Kennedy told Prince
Sihanouk in his letter that he

er drew the cheers of thousands
OF Germans and a 21-gun

he was greeted by President

tional conference because they
might be put on the defensive.
AS an alternative Prince ST.
hanouk proposed yesterday that
the Laos conference powers
amend their accord to include
Cambodia within the interna-
tional umbrella of protection.
He also called for creation Of a
new international control COM
mission with two members
each from the Communist and
Western blocs to police Cam
bodia's borders.
Cambodia has been on hostile
terms with its neighbors for
centuries. But border tension
has flared in recent months,
and incidents-often involving
shooting-occur almost daily.
Reduced Tension Sought
Prince Sihanouk said Mon
day, however, that talks were
under way between his govern
ment and the South Wet Nam
government to reduce tension.
United States diplomats in-ndo
China are negotiating with ma

said 1t stands behind Cam

autonomy.
Diplomatic observers regard
Prince Sihanouk's statement
that he might call in Commu-
mist military help as potentially
dangerous but not necessarily
and indication he has any in
tention Of doing it.

Combodio Threatens Turn
To Reds to Protect Border

SAIGON. Wet Nam, Sept. 4
A)-Cambodia's chief of
state, Prince Norodom Shan
9uk, has threatened to con-
clude q military alliance with
the Soviet Union or Communist
China If the West does not
meet his demands, the Cam
oodian radio reported today.
The Prince wants interna-
tional guarantees protecting his
frontiers from incursions by
Thai or South Wet Namese
troops.
Prince Sihanouk was quoted
as saying that Communist mil.
itary aid to his government
would only parallel United
States military aid to South
Wet Nam apd Thailand.
The threat was an extension
OF the pressure the Cambodian
leader has been exerting on the
West-and particularly on the
United States-to support him
In his quarrel with his two pro-
Western neighbors.
Prince Sihanouk has invited
all the nations participating in
the recent Geneva conference
on Laos to convene a new ses-
sion to guarantees Cambodian
neutrality. So far, only Com
munist-bloc nations have COM
pletely supported the idea.
o. s. Releases Letter
In Washington yesterday the
State Department released a
letter from President Kennedy
TO Prince Sihanouk replying to
the Princes letter Of August 20
suggesting the international
conference.
Mr.. Kennedy said the United
States will do whatever it can"
to assure Cambodian neutrality,
but he stopped short Of indors-
ing an international conference.
Instead, Mr.. Kennedy said,
official letters from various ma
tions interested in Southeast
Asia, pledging to respect Cam
bodia's neutrality, independ-
ence and territorial integrity
would be more expeditions
and effective" than a confer
ence.
The president did not, how
ever. reject Prince Sihanouk's
proposal, but noted that the
Prince had himself suggested
the official letters as a posi-
BILE alternative in talks with
United States Ambassador
Philip Sprouse.
Reds Approve Farley
So far, Russia, Red China
and Communist North Wet
Nam have approved Prince ST.
hanouk's proposal for a con-
ference. Britain has suggested
q conference limited to avow-
edly neutral Cambodia and its
two pro-Western neighbors,
Thailand and South Wet Nam.
Prince Sihanouk said yester-
day he believes western nations
oppose the idea of an interna-
