Cost Of LiVinu
Stays at Peak
Index for April
Equals March High
By the Associated Press


The cost of living remained
unchanged during April at its
record March level the Labor
Department said today.
The consumer price index
remained at 1862 per cent OF
the average for 1957-59. This
was l per cent above the level
Of April, 1862.
The figure means it costs
Sl0.62 now to buy what $40
would buy in the 1957-59 period
in the average family's budget
Evan Clague, director of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics, said
that a reduction in prices for
food and gasoline during April
was offset by price increases
for housing, used cars, news
papers and clothing.
Prices for meat, poultry and
fish dropped "a per cent during
April to the lowest level since
1857.
Mr.. Clague said this was
mainly due to a dip in prices
for beef and pork. Both went
down 3.5 per cent.
So far. he said, there has nc
major effect on the consumer
price index from the soaring
price of sugar. He said this
price rise probably would have
a gradual effect over a period
Of months.
Offsetting lower prices for
meat, eggs and dairy products
to some extent during April
were higher prices for fruits
and vegetables.

ERAsERoPHAGIA DISCOVERED
MoIody Of Classroom
Revealed in X-Roys

as those mystery spots on the
colon.
When another child - this
time a l2-year-old boy - ap-
peared with the same X-ray
results, the doctors found that
he too was hooked on erasers.
Not content with this evi-
dence, the radiologists swal-
lowed some erasers themselves
and found that some showed
up on X-rays and some did not,
or, as they put II: Deliberate
ingestion OF eraser fragments
by ourselves reproduced our
initial observations. but only
with erasers Of high roentgen
tX-ray) density"
To prove their point even
further, the radiologists tn en-
X-rayed lots Of erasers TO show
that some. containing certain
substances, blocked x = rays
while others. without the SUBJ
stances, did not. The substan-
ces, by the way, are thought TO
be harmless)
The radiologists warned their
colleagues that they should
watch out that eraser nibbling
doesn't confuse them so that
they get upset when they see
those white spots on the X-ray
film. They warned that eraser
ophagia is probably a common
habit.
II may reach a peak during
school exams and civil service
tests.

HAWAIIAN MISSIONARY
Stamp Brings Record
$4,000 at Auction

One OF the worlds rarest
stamps, a 2-cent Hawaiian Of
the so-called Missionary" se-
ries. was sold last night for
sal 900 at a New York auction.
The price paid by Raymond
WE'LL. a New orleans dealer,
was a record for a single stamp
sold at auction. Top previous
price was set 40 years ago
when $4,000 was paid for a
famous 1856 l-cent British
Guiana ship stamp.
The British Guiana issue is
now valued at between $50, 900
and 10000, by all odds the
most valuable stamp IN the
world.
II. r. Harmer, Inc. which
sold the Hawaiian stamp, said
II is the only known 2-cent
Missionary" which had not
gone through the mails. Issued
In 1851. 1t was from the collec-
tion Of the late Maurice Burrus
OF Lausanne.
The Missionaries" are so
named because they were used
almost exclusively by clergy
men who had gone 10 the Ha-
waiian Islands, then an inde-
pendent kingdom, during the
last century TO spread the
Gospel. They have always
been scarce.

INTERPRETATION
Syriu und Iroq Caught
In q Grim Porodox

Syrian Ba'athiSts have been
eliminating NasSerites for the
last month and induleing in a
war Of words with Radio Cairo
Syrian Ba'athists put down
pro-NasSer popular demonstra-
tions earlier this month and
later dismissed NaSSerite Syrian
army officers.
Committed to Loose Unity
Ba'ath Socialists came to
power in both Syria and Iraq
early this year after military
revolutions. They claim their
revolutionary leadership has
been threatened by Nasser sup
porters, but they remain COM
mitted to a loose federation
with Mr.. Nasser's UAR.
Informed sources believe the
Syrian and Iraqi unity pledges
depend on whether Mr.. NaSser
insists on sticking to his con-
dition Of a united political
front in Syria and Iraq.
Cairo's press and radio have
assailed Syria's Ba'athists but
have cautiously avoided linking
them with Iraq's. The Ba'ath
leadership in Syria, however.
has taken comfort in the fact
that Mr.. NaSser himself has
kept quiet.
Ba'athists point to Mr.. Mas
ser's silence in arguing that
there is no reason why the fed
Grafton should not be estab-
lished by the target date.
But just how long Mr.. Nasser
can remain silent while his sup
porters are attacked in Syria
and Iraq remained open to
question.

DAMASCUS. Syria, May %.
The governments Of Syria
and Iraq find themselves
caught in a paradox. They
crack down on Nasserites at
home but press for union with
President Canal Abdel Nasser's
United Arab Republic.
Behind it lies a grim power
struggle between the ruling
Ba 'athist Socialists of Iraq and
Syria and Nasser supporters for
domination of the projected
union Of the three countries by
next September. The rapidly
developing deadlock threatens
the federation, but no one ma
ton seems yet prepared to back
out first.
The most damaging accusa-
ton that can be made against
an Arab politician today is that
of being a separatist or op-
ponent Of union.
Parleys Continue
So the negotiations toward
union continue, with Syria and
Iraq pressing for a large meas
ure Of home rule in the fedora
ton and Mr.. Nasser insisting
that the Ba'ath Party should
submerge itself into a national
front coalition including Mas
serites in all three countries.
Baghdad radio said the Iraq
government had crushed a pro-
Nasser plot and shot 10 mill
tary men and one civilian

arrest yesterday Of a pro-
Nasser leader, Salam Ahmad,

D. Cost Rise
Draws Fire at
Budget Airing
Increase Proposed
In U. S. Payment
By Kennedy Aide
BY GRACE BASSETT
Star Staff Writer

Key House District commit
teemen today turned a joint
congressional hearing on Dis
trict revenue into a probe of
spiraling municipal costs.
A Senate House District COM
mittee was urged by a Ken
nedy administration spokes-
man, Elmer Stats, to rescue
the District from short-run
fiscal planning. His solution:
A Federal payment, flexible
enough to yield $50 million
annually to the city now and
SGT million by 1869.
A Federal loan, which could
rise from a ceiling of $225 mil
lion now to $275 million by
1869. Both payments and loans
would be geared to what the
Federal Government would pay
the city if Federal facilities
were taxable.
Questions on Reduction
House District Committee
Chairman Mcmillan of South
Carolina and his fiscal sub
committee chairman, Repre-
sentative Whitener Of North
Carolina, both Democrats,
asked Deputy Budget Bureau
Director Stats If he had con-
sidered reducing expenses, as
well as increasing revenues.
Then, they submitted a
House Committee study show
ing that money spent on Dis
trict school buildings, for ex-
ample, since 1855 was more
than $40 million over what
cities of comparable size have
spent in the same period.
A 81 million windfall discov-
cred a few days ago by city
officials, who want to spend
most of this money for schools,
was passed over in statistics
submitted by District Commis-
Sioners.
Walter N. Tobriner, presi-
dent of the Board of Commits
sioners, said the money should
be spent to build classrooms
and to hire both junior high
and grade school teachers be-
cause school needs exceed
those of other departments"
Yet to Reach Congress
This spending request re-
portedly has yet to clear the
Budget Bureau and will not
reach Congress at least until
House budget hearings next
Monday. It could be delayed
until after Congress acts on
the Federal payment and loan
proposals.
Commissioner Tobriner was
thrust into a defensive role by
Representative Whitener.
The North Carolinian de-
manded per square foot costs
Of school buildings and per
room costs of taxpayer-fi-
nanced hospital care.
For schools, that cost was
$3.50 compared to a national
average of $ll per square foot. |
I'VE build 'em in North
Carolina for from So to SIS,
depending on who's spending
taxpayers money" Mr.. Whit
ener said.
Hospital Costs
On hospitals, Mr.. Whitener
drew an admission that the
District was paying more in its
own public hospitals than in
private hospitals for patient
care.

Pope Survives Crisis
Still in Crave Danqer
Hemorrhuqe
Of Pontiff
Worst Yet

VATICAN CITY, May %
(AP).-Death brushed close to
Pope John XIII today, but
he weathered the crisis.
Persistent hemorrhaging left
him in grave condition.
The Vatican disclosed he is
suffering from gastric hetero-
plasia-a growth in the stom-
ach. This could be a tuInor or
a cancer, either benign or ma
lignant.
The diagnosis, published by
the Vatican newspaper, Los
servatore Romano, was the first
specifically defining the illness
of the 81-year-old Roman Cath
olic pontiff.
The dictionary definition Of
heteroplaSia is: The formation
Of abnormal tissue or of nor
NAL tissue IN an abnormal To-
cality.
Through tense hours this
morning, three doctors we're at
the Pope's bedside and worked
feverishly to stem hemorrhag-
ing that would not stop, Vati-
can sources reported.
Worst Crisis Of Illness
1t was the worst crisis of the
illness which felled him briefly
last fall and has since recurred
intermittently.
Medical personnel rushed in
and out of the papal apartment.
The Pope's private secretary,
Msgr. Loris Capovilla, left the
apartment in tears and told
those outside:
Pray! Pray"
Vatican sources said the
Pope's mind was clear, but he
has been able to take no solid
food for several days and he
was having increasing difficulty
in retaining liquids.
1t is possible the doctors have
not determined the exact kind
of growth involved. In the past,
surgery had been considered for
Exploratory purposes-and been
rejected as too dangerous for
the pontiff because of his age
and condition.
Until today the Vatican had
said only that the Pope had e
stomach disorder.
III for a Year
L'OsServatore said the hemor-
rhages. caused by the gastric !
heteroplasia, which has affected |
the Holy Father for about a !
year. after being arrested for
several months, have had an
accentuated resumption in re-
cent days" 1t added:
They have now been at
tenuated, and the organic con-
sequences linked to them are. |
through today, limited and |
compensated by the curative
measures adopted" /
Aside from disclosing the !
growth. the statement also re- |
vealed for the first time that |
the Pope had been Ill for a
year. Until now, his illness |
had been dated 10 last No !
vember.
The doctors we're Piero MAJ
zoni Of Rome, who has re-
mained almost constantly at
the apostolic palace for a week:
Antonio Gasbarrini. the Pope's
personal physician, and Pietro
Valdoni, one Of Italy's leading
surgeons.
Deep Concerned Caused
DR.. Mazzoni went TO the
Pope's bedside at 9:l5 am. An
hour later DR.. Gasbarrini was
ushered into the papal apart
ment. Then DR.. Valdoni was
called in.
A Vatican source said the
difficulty in halting the IN
ternal bleeding brought deep
concern.
Shortly after noon. DR.. Cas-
barrini and DR.. Valdoni de-
parted. DR.. Mazzoni appar-
emily was continuing TO stand
by, as he has for seven days
and nights.
