quently - and it leads more
often to a fatal heart attack.
That is one verdict from a
study of 5,l27 men and women
in birmingham, Mass, report
ed today by DR.. William B.
Kannel of the National Heart
Institute.
1t may not mean that cho-
lesterol itself is the culprit, he
said. But as cholesterol-one
kind of blood fat-goes, so go
other blood fat measurements.
From this, said DR.. Kannel,
one may conclude that lin a
population that has been satu-
rated with fat some TIRES
hold tof safety has been
passed"
In the birmingham study,
about l in 10 Of the men be-
tween the ages of 80 and go
have developed some coronary
disease in the last 10 years.
OF those who have the first
signs of symptoms of coronary
disease, IS per cent die within

Publishers
Oppose Wire
Rate Boost
BY the Associated Press

A spokesman for newspaper
publishers gives competition
and costs as the principal reAo
sons for opposing proposed rate
increases on private leased lines
for news and picture trans
mission.
Stanford Smith, general
manager of the American News
paper Publishers Association,
says one Of the reasons for a
cost squeeze on newspapers Is
competition from other media.
He also lists the problems Of
circulation and distribution in
big cities and increasing pres
sures for higher salary and
wage scales.
Mr.. Smith testified yesterday
before a Federal Communica-
tons Commission hearing ex-
aminer in a case that goes back
seven years, when American
Telephone g. Telegraph Co. and
Western Union requested per-
mission to make rate changes.
Last May 20 the FEC allowed
higher rates on leased tele-
graph lines and lower rates on
leased telephone lines, effective
August /, except for press Gus
toners. 1t ordered a special in
quiry on charges to the press,
saying it was not able to evalu-
ate the extent to which the rate
proposals would impair the
widespread dissemination Of
news information If applied to
the press"
A court in Chicago has stayed
the effectiveness of the order
for increased rates, granting an
injunction sought by three meat
packing firms.

Study ReoffirIns Peril
Of ChoIesteroI in Diet

If you are 10 years old and
have a high cholesterol level,
enjoy it," DR.. Kannel said
But if you are 30, and you
have a high cholesterol level,
then go out and get an in
surance policy"
This is not to say that the
man of 80 can't mend his ways,
change his diet, DR.. Kannel
said. A change of diet, and a
change in way of life may be
valuable.
The birmingham study is
based on accepting people as
they are. Its value is in seeing
how the Nation is responding
in terms of modern life to the
threat of heart disease.
If there is a set of sugges-
tons a doctor might offer a pa
tient, DR.. Kannel said, it might
be something like this:
Get up and exercise, eat a
less rich diet, less of foods with
saturated fats, smoke fewer
cigarettes; and if you have high
blood pressure, get it lowered
and if you are overweight, lose
weight.
DR.. Kannel said the Framing.
ham studies also showed:
So far as heart disease Is
concerned, a decisive point is
not necessarily the length OF
time you have smoked cigar
cites, but what your consump-
ton is. The reason, he said
is that cigarettes appear tc
trigger incidents.
Over the body of the popula.
ton, there does not seem tc
have been a change in diet sub.
stantial enough to change very
much the incidence of coronary
disease.

RICHMOND, Sept. 10 (AP)
-Virginia's Pupil Placement
Board has broken precedent by
assigning five white pupils to
an all-Negro public school, but
ID was uncertain today whether
the pupils ever would enroll.
The five children. whose
parents recently moved into a
predominantly Negro populated
section of HopeW.I, were as
signed yesterday to the Carter
G. Woodson High School for
Negroes there.
Neither the board itself nor
Hopewell school officials would
identify the white children in
volved. But the chairman of
the placement board, E. j.
OgleSby, told newsmen:
1T is my personal opinion
that those five children will
never go to that school,"
Not Attending Today
In Hopewell today, a school
official said the white children
were not attending the Wood
son School. He declined to
identify them.
The mother of two of the
children, who moved from
Pennsylvania into the Woodson
School zone this summer, said i:
II can tell you one thing. I'm
not going to put my children
in an all-colored school,"
She said she couldn't under
stand why her children couldn't
be enrolled in Hopewell High.

Near'S contention that he
wasn't present during all
phases of his trial.
Near also had argued that
the jury, by not being kept
together, heard remarks by
spectators during recesses OF
the trial. He further said that
one juror had expressed an
opinion as to Near's guilt the
evening of the first day Of the
two-day trial.
Judge Lewis found that Near
was not present in the judges
chambers when the decision
was made not to Sequester the
jury.

Judge Lewis also decided that

Mr.. Chapman was beaten to
death with a shotgun in his
quarters at the youth correc-

an itinerant truck driver, was
arrested in Chapman's car in
Indiana several days later.

Mrs. Ann Brown, chairman of
the county's Democratic State
Central Committee, at a meet
ing of the party's precinct
chairmen.
Our schools are again over
crowded, the crime rate is up,
and more is being done to az
gravate the civil rights crisis
than to resolve it in Mont
gomery County," Mrs. Brown
declared in her talk at the
meeting in Silver Spring.
Blames Republicans
She put the blame squarely
on the shoulders Of the Repub-
lican council members and
added: The voters of this
county see what's happening.
I'm confident that Democrats
and responsible Republicans
alike would sweep us back into
office If the matter were put
to them this November"
Mrs. Brown said schools are
overcrowced this year because
the Republicans frivolously cut
200 badly needed teachers out
OF the school boards budget"
Referring to a report by
County Police Supt. James Nc
Auliffe last week about an in
crease in crime in the county
since January l, Mrs. Brown
said she believed the chief was
doing everything he can" to
cope with the situation. But
she added that he would be
able to do more II he had the
support Of the Republicans on
the county council who re-
fused to provide the police
chief with the men he and the
county manager knew would be
needed to control crime In this
county"
The Republicans actions in
the field Of civil rights also
came under fire of Mrs. Brown.
Cites Accommodations
First" she said, they pro-
posed eliminating the pub
lie accommodations ordinance.
Failing in that, they proposed
controlling peaceful demon
STATIONS and gatherings with
an inflammatory anG infamous
anti demonstration ordinance.
For months" she added,
they refused to meet with or
acknowledge the presence of
their own Human Relations
Commission, and they refused
to make new appointments or
reappointments to the commits
sion as terms expire"
The precinct leaders, meet
ing at the auditorium OF the
Maryland National Capital
Park and Planning Commission,
also heard a report by Willard
A. Morris, majority clerk TO the
county's Board of Election Su-
pervisors, on recent boundary
changes in some precincts. Out

term interest rates at levels
high enough to compete with
foreign rates. Conversely, the
United States has urged for
eigners to reduce their rates.
Considerable progress has
been made in adjusting rates,
but the outflow of capital con-
tinues in significant amounts.
Unless this outflow is re-
duced greatly, officials said,
more vigorous action will be
necessary to raise interest rates
in the United States.
Debt Financing Involved
Such action would involve
shifts in the techniques of
Treasury borrowing to finance
the public debt. More directly,
it would involve moves by the
Federal Reserve to restrict the
supply Of money and credit,
which would have the effect of
boosting interest rates.
Perhaps the most direct ac-
ton by the Federal Reserve
would be an increase in the
discount rate, which has been
3 per cent since August, 1860.
The discount rate is the inter-
est charged by Federal Reserve
Banks for loans to member
banks.
High discount rates curtail
the banks capacity to make
loans. and tend to push up the
whole structure Of interest
rates.
Until now, at least. the
Treasury and the Federal Re-
serve have been very selective
in their efforts to keep short
term interest rates high enough
to compete. They have. in fact,
tried to push intermediate and
long term rates down, with the
hope that easy credit would
stimulate the domestic econ
omy.
But If the payments deficit
does not shrink substantially
and soon, officials say. the
administration will reluctantly
indorse and support much
stronger moves toward tight
money and higher interest
rates-including an increase in
the discount rate.
