Highest Priority Urged
These views were expressed
by the Senate Armed Services
Preparedness Subcommittee in
an official, interim report on
its investigation of the Rus
sian military buildup in Cuba.
The investigation by the group
headed by Senator Stennis,
Democrat of Mississippi, is con-
.tinuing, the report said.
The report is based on a
lengthy inquiry conducted
largely in secret. 1t said the
Cuban problem, both military
and political, should be ac-
corded "the highest priority by
our Government officials to the
end that the evil threat which
the Soviet occupation of Cuba
represents will be eliminated at
an early date"

Furthermore, DR.. DuvalieI
has refused for the past two
weeks to permit an Air Force

Raymond Thurston to land

Some of the people being
evacuated have ailments like
asthma and need medicines

everything is locked up by the
Haitians."
He discussed this state OF

pared to leave today because OF
the "unpredictable" situation.
Americans here, glum and
reserved after two planes took
l78 dependents to the United
States yesterday, were cheered
considerably when word spread
that the attack carrier Boxer
was drawing close to Port au
Prince late yesterday.
They were comforted by the
knowledge that the Boxer, with
its 1000 Marines and its escort

New Bill Raises
Federal Payment
To $45 Million
BY SAM EASTMAN
Star Staff Writer

Legislation to increase the
authorized annual Federal
payment to Washington by $13
million has been introduced by
Chairman Mcmillan Of the
House District Committee.
This increase is S. million
more than the amount pro-
posed by Representative Nc
MILAN in a bill introduced
earlier this session.
Under the latest bill, the
city's annual payment ceiling
would be increased from $50
million to $45 million. The
earlier bill by Mr.. Mcmillan,
Democrat of South Carolina,
would have set the annual au-
thorization at $40 million. The
new revenue proposal edges
closer to the amount that would
be provided under the admins
tration-backed Federal pay
ment bill-.$53 million in the
next fiscal year.
Set Fiscal Hearing
Mr.. McMillan's bill was in
troduced yesterday in the wake
Of agreement by the House
District Committee to hold
Joint hearings on all revenue
raising measures for the Dis
trict except legislative tar
increase proposals.

Received by
GiIpatric Firm
Testimony Shows
$300, 900 Paid
In Last 6 Years
BY CECIL HOLLAND
star staff Writer

Senate investigators released
testimony today that the New
York law firm with which Dep
uty Secretary Of Defense Gil
patric was associated before
taking over his present posi-
ton in 1861 received $500. 900
in fees from the General Dy-
namics Corp. in the last six
years.
The testimony also disclosed
that Morris T. Moore, senior
managing partner of the firm,
Cravath, Slaine g. Moore, was
made q director Of General
Dynamics soon after it re-
ceived Its controversial Tx
.warplane contract.
This testimony was given as
top General DynamicS officials
went before the Senate In
vestigations Subcommittee and
said they will produce a better
Tx plane than Boeing Air-
craft Co., and at less cost.
The subcommittee headed by
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat
of Arkansas, is seeking to find
out whether favoritism or faul-
ty judgment figured in award
ing Of the Tx contract. which
is expected eventually to total
more than $6.5 billion.
Tells Of Fees
Under questioning by Sena-
tor Curtis, Republican of Ne
braska, Roger Harris, vice presi-
dent and general counsel Of
General Dynamics, told Of the
fees paid to the law firm. Tue
testimony was taken a closed
door hearing yesterday. A tran
script, released this morning,
showed no critical comment
about the fees testimony.
Mr.. 'Gilpatric was asked
about his legal work for Cen
eral Dynamics during q press
conference on Monday. He said
then that his work was largely
in connection with the merger.
Fees were not discussed.
He also told reporters that
he had done legal work for
Boeing, that he was not paid
merely to be a witness for the
company.
The transcript showed Gen.
eral Dynamics paid 1926, 900 in
fees, plus expenses, for work
Mr.. Gilpatric did for the COM
pany before he became Deputy
Secretary of Defense in 1861
when the Kennedy admins

STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
By Dr.. Peter J. Stsincrohn

Dear DR.. steincrohn: I am
50 and need major surgery.
Although I am apparently in
good health otherwise, my
doctor suggests that I have
an electrocardiogram taken,
although I had one q year
ago which was all right.
What do you SuggeSt2-Mr. o.
A YEAR is o long time
when the circulation is con-
cerned. I'd suggest another
EGG even though you weren't
preparing for an operation.
Many people have what we
call silent attacks Of coronary
thrombosis and go along
completely unaware that they
have a weakened heart. The
danger comes when they con-
tinue to be as active Is pre-
viously.
Some doctors even believe
that every patient over so
should have an electrocardi-
ogram taken after surgery.
Or, at least for those who
have q definite coronary ar
terry disease, high blood pres
sure, diabetes, trouble in the
leg circulation, or for those
who have been aware Of
changes in their EGGS be-
fore operation.
DR.. Anne c. Driscoll and
her associates at Tufts Uni
versity found that changes In
the electrocardiogram may be
the only evidence Of q post
operative myocardial infarc-
ton. q coronary thrombosis
with subsequent injury to
heart muscle. In o study Of
496 patients they discovered
that IL had myocardial in
farctions postoperatively. And
Of these only two had the
typical symptoms Of recent
trouble.
So you see, Mr.. o.. I am
in favor Of your having an
EGG before and also after
operation. Why guess when
you can be sure2
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: Is
there anything at all that
can be done for FACETS dis
ease? My husband has It and
his doctor prescribed nothing
but aspirin for the pains
Mrs. v.
FACETS is q stubborn
bone disease. The typical pa
tient has thickened, bowed
legs and an abnormally large
skull due to initial bone de-
struction followed by an alb
normal amount Of bone for
nation. The actual cause Is
not known, but we try to keep
the patient comfortable. Bone
pains and other discomforts
are often relieved by giving
the patient combined doses
Of male and female hor-
mones. In addition, some
doctors recommend cortico-
steroids. Aspirin Is all right,
too. but In all cases insuffi-
cient to control the discom-
forts of Paget's.
-
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: What
can I do to overcome my
crying? I don't want to be
a burden or q bore to my
loved ones. ! cry when I talk
to people and I cry when I
get excited. I can't 60 to
places Of sorrow because /
cry so hard I get sick and
pass out. I am 80 years old.
Mrs. x.
MY GUESS is that there
is some difficulty In the cir
culation In the brain. I have
seen a number Of people who
had uncomfortable crying fits
In whom there was definite
evidence of poor cerebral cir
culation.
Your doctor might try nj
actin or saturated solution Of
potassium iodide. However,
I don't want to get your
hopes up too high. Never
theless these crying jags may
be a phase which will wear
themselves out In time.
