Foreign Teachers Visit
Kennedy, White House

About 20 members of a group
of 200 teachers from foreign
lands managed to clasp hands
and chat briefly with President
Kennedy during a 10-minute
welcome in the Rose Garden of
the White House today.
II don't care about anything,
as long as I shook hands with
him." Miss Glendora B. Will
liams of India said excitedly.
President Kennedy had to bend
his 6-foot frame noticeably
to reach Miss Williams hand.
She is 4 feet, 8 inches.
Because of her height, she ex-
planned, her friends eased her
into the front row.
You can say he is the most
popular President America has
ever had in India" said another
Indian teacher accompanying
her.
Miss Rose Marie Allouche, of
Algeria, in calmer tones, de-
clared: Il was rather moved,
It's the first time I have been
able to shake hands with some
body like that. ! had no op-
portunity to shake hands with
the President in my country"
President Kennedy told the
teachers they will teach more
than they will learn" America
has a lot to learn about the
world, he said, because it has
lived "in comparative isolation
much of its history"
I'VE have been placed on
the world stage at a most diff
cult time" he said.

On Almond in Senate

There was what Senator
Harry Byrd might call "a
golden silence" today on the
prospects of Senate action on
the nomination of former Vir-
ginia Gov. ]. Lindsay Almond
to a Federal judgeship.
President Kennedy yesterday
expressed his concern over the
failure of the Senate Judiciary
Committee to consider the
four-month-old appointment to
the U. S. Court of Customs and
Patents Appeals.
Despite the Presidents pub
lished bafflement, Committee
Chairman Eastland, Democrat
of Mississippi. told a reporter
today he knew nothing about
the matter.

tions up here" Senator East
land said, Il can't remember

about that"

Virginia Senator has turned in

Senator Byrd, who broke

Mr.. Almond led Virginia away

school desegregation. had no
comment.
His colleague, Senator Rob-
ertSon, said, Il have received
no information from the COM
mittee and I have taken no
action. I have no idea what
Mr.. Almonds status is"
Asked directly if he favored
the nomination, Senator Rob-

District OfficiuIs
OverruIed for
Lack of Evidence

A District appeals board to-
day overruled city licensing Of
ficials and voted the Nation
wide uSed-car firm the right
to stay in business.
Licensing officials last Jan
uary moved to close down Ma
tionwide Motor Sales, Ills K
street NV. The action by the
Department of Licenses and
Inspections was based on al
legged violations OF the city's
auto sale and financing regula-
tionS and on an allegation of
business fraud.
Appeal Upheld
The Board cf Appeals and
Review today upheld the appeal
Of the uSed-car firm.
The appeals board said license
renewal refusal by the Depart
ment of Licenses and InSpec-
tionS was not supported by
legally sufficient evidence"
The license refusal notice
had been directed against G. 8,
L., Inc, which operates Nation
wide. 1t was served on Leon
Pappas, president of the cor
poration.
Mr.. PappaS figured in last
summers controversial used car
permit hearings.
Lack of Evidence
During hearings before the
Board Of Appeals and Review,
Attorney Bernard T. Levin, rep
resenting Nationwide, argued
that the Corporation CounselS'
Office simply had not presented
evidence to support Specifica-
tions by licensing officials of al
legged violations. The board, in
its opinion today, agreed.
The licensing department had
sent two permit denial notices
for the licensing year that be-
gan last November /. The other
notice was sent to Auto Dis
count Corp, which operates a
used car lot at 1900 K street
NV. A decision by the ap-
peals board on this case is
pending.

ASKED WHAT HE thought

ASKED WHAT HE thought
of the press conference he
said, I'VE have nothing like
this in England. The Prime
Minister is questioned on the
floor of the House. Being
questioned in the House of
Commons is much more ef-
feetive than these press con-
ferences. The Prime Minister
MUST answer or he'll have
the whole opposition in the

ing Answer! Answer!'
You can get snubbed here.
It's not a right, but a privi-
lege to ask a question here.
Sloppy way of going about it,
what? If you're an elected
representative of the people
in the House of Commons,
you can harry the man."
The President, tan and
with a Sunburned nose, was
promptly into the swim at
4 pm. but after 10 minutes
it was apparent that all that

the chairs.
Those plush orange chairs
SwiShed up and down several
times as anxious would-be
questioners crouched, sat
down, crouched again, sat
down, stood halfway up like
birds poised for flight and
then, as the President came
to the end of a sentence, fl
nally jumped up to chorus,
"Mr. President"
Others, more experienced,
have worked out an effec-
tive position of sitting on the
edge of the seat, one foot in
front of the other for lever
age. In this position, one can
rise in half a second.
II suppose some of the fell
lows in the back get pretty
discouraged about getting
recognized, but there's a girl

ficiently endowed to be no

one veteran reporter. "She

City Council Members
City Hall,
Billings
Gentlemen:
May I respectfully request that you
fully utilize the powers of government
that lie in your hands toward the Sc
curing of an Injunction to prevent the
tearing down of the beauty of the Rim
Rocks, as proposed by the construction
of what can hardly be called a neces-
sary -four lane road to the airport
That this is not a particularly heavily
travelled road can be attested to by
all citizens.
We have so many, and more pressing
needs for the expenditure of public
monies, that for one-cannotr stand
idly by and see this wastage of the
taxpayers dollars without raising my
voice in protest. -
Suppose. for instance, that this
money was spent i'm correcting the
dangerous ditch situation that has
been allowed to arise, at the cost
of many small lives, over the years.
Consider also how much more this
would mean to the area-if it were
used for matching funds for further
construction of the Laurel Highway
Think also of the dangers to be Gre
ated by construction of a four-lane
highway for Easterns students to
hazard each time they go for physical
training. Then you, and the downtown,
merchants should visualize the harm
this wall on 27th' is going to build up
between the areas East and West of a
heavily trafficed 9th Street. Do you
think that this will not inevitably
soon become truck route through
the business district? Finally. con-
slider what boost to Good City Plan
ming it would be, if in place of being
a silent party to the construction of
this unnecessary and expensive four
lane highway to the airport, you would
insist upon a tunnel through the Rims
in the neighborhood of 18th or 10th
Streets, and on out and up Alkili Creek
toward Lavina. 1 am told that this
tunnel could almost be dug with a.
spoon at cost of probably not over
$3.50, 900.
OF course the present Airport Road
should be maintained safely for traf-
tic. Sincerely = WILLARD FRASER,
