ards recommended by the Clay
Committee in reducing to S4.5
billion the $40 billion he asked
in his January budget message
to finance economic and mill
tary aid in the 1864 fiscal year
starting July /.
Increasing emphasis is being
placed on self-help and self
reform by countries getting
American assistance, Mr.. Ken
nedy said, to assure use Of the
aid "as a catalyst for progress
and not as a handout." He also
said I'VE are taking a sharp
new look at both the size and

being aided.
May Ask New Cuts
The $40O million reduction
he proposed was larger than
had been generally anticipated.
But Mr.. Kennedy still is ask
ing for 5000 million more than
the $50 billion Congress voted
for the current fiscal year. A
move for further cuts is ex-
pected in Congress.
In its recent report to the
President, a 10-man committee
headed by Gen. Lucius D. Clay
estimated that existing aid
programs could be reduced by
$500 million II the tougher
criteria it proposed were in ef-
feet now.
Mr.. Kennedy said his recon-
mendations today also reflected
scrutiny Of the aid program by
David E. Bell, who became ad-
ministrator Of the Agency for
International Development last
December, and experience Of
the last year.

Lunik-1 missed the moon.

Earlier this session, Chair
man Mcmillan introduced his
own bills dealing with these
three matters. Mr.. Mcmillan has
said he will call hearings soon.
Senator Bible, in urging the
increase in the police force,
said:
I'm my judgment, botn the
Congress and law enforcement
agencies on all levels must
reassess whether we are doing
our job effectively"
Congress authorized a 5000
man force two years ago. For
the current fiscal year, Con-

1900 men. The city is asking
for enough money in the fiscal
year beginning July to reach

Three Anti-Crime
Bills in House
BY SAM EASTMAN
Star staff Writer

A 500-man increase in the
authorized strength of WASH
ington's police force to help
roll back the city's crime rate
was proposed today by Chair
man Bible of the Senate Dis
trict Committee.
The authorized strength of
the force would go from 5000
to $500 under the proposal by
Senator Bible, Democrat of
Nevada.
The suggestion was made at
a hearing by the Senate Dis
trict Committee on three crime
fighting bills for Washington.
At the same time on the
House side, Chairman McMil-
Ian Of the House District Com
mittee introduced three anti
crime measures drafted by the
blue-ribbon Special Select Com
mittee of the District Bar Asso-
citation.
Committee Consideration
The bills were introduced by
Representative Mcmillan, DEM
ocrat of South Carolina, so that
the legislative proposals can be
considered by his committee
when it holds its crime bill
hearings.
The bills drafted by the bar
associations committee would:
Amend the Mallory court rule
on admissibility of confessions.
This ruling voids confessions
because of a delay between ar
rest and appearance before a
magistrate. Under the bar as
sociation's measure, a confess
sion, otherwise admissible,
would not be ruled inadmissible
because of the time between
arrest and court action.
Provide Washington police
with a substitute procedure for
the recently banned arrests for
investigation.
Clarity the Districts statute
on the handling of a material
witness to a crime.

I would greatly appreciate
your explanation Of this con-
dition. Is 1t Of a serious ma
ture? If SO, what can be
done about it2-Mrs. F.
YEARS AGO, whenever we
made this diagnosis, we
thought that the patient had
only a few years to live. We
have revised our estimates;
the prognosis is often better.
! have known patients to
live for many years with
heart block. But the outlook
depends upon the cause.
First let me explain the
mechanics of it. The normal
heart impulses originate at q
point in the upper right
chamber of the heart; the
impulse of the beats spread
down. Later they pass to each
side Of the lower heart by
way of bundles Of tissue
which act as conductors Of
the electric current.
When the heart Is normal
and these pathways are clear,
the heart beats have no diff
ficulty originating in the
ventricles. However, as q re-
suit Of illness these pathways
have roadblocks of athero-
sclerosis or infection, which
interfere with the normal
passage Of the current. These
findings often show up In the
EGG.
The doctors Job is to dis
cover the cause. Sometimes
it is due to an ulIsuspected
coronary thrombosis. At 9TH
ers to chronic arteriosclerotic
heart disease. It may be due
to an infection like diph-
liberia or rheumatic fever.
Sometimes the heart appears
to be perfectly normal ex-
cept for a little inconsequen-
tial patch of aeterioscIerosis

what his doctor discovers as
the cause.

Golfer in Boots
Lands in Rough

GALVESTON.--It was hot
and sunny at the country
club and the golfers waiting
around the first tee leaned
on their No. 1 woods or stood
in the shade. The caddy mas
ter called our ''Afr. and Mrs.
Leach" and a stout giant Of
a man In Texas boots stepped
= forward with q petite woman.
.-fOkay, Polly" the, big man
said. His voice was 3 miles
below sea level. The crowd
watched the woman with the
molasses skin step up, tee up
and whack the white ball
down the fairway.
A man standing in the
shade watched Edward Cur
tis Leach, jr., . fiftyish man
who weighs 264 pounds, step
up. fail at the ball, and send
it bounding like a baby bunny
40 yards into the rough.
There's your typical Texan"
the watching man said. Hes
fat as a hog. rich as Croesus,
wears cowboy boots with
spikes on a golf course. and
can't hit a ball"
MAYBE, MAYBE NOT. II
the man who stood IN the
shade reads this, he may re-
wise his opinion. Ed Leach's
mother was Marguerite
O'Sullivan Leach. She was
8 feet 2 inches tall. weighed
200 pounds and sang in the
Metropolitan Opera House as
q mezzo contralto. His father
was Frank Leach. a mechan-
ical engineer. 6 feet 3 inches
tall. 100 pounds. The big man
in the Texas boots was their
only child. .
He was born In Cleveland
in 1918. His feet were on
backwards with the heels to
the front. At the age Of IL
days, the infant was operated
on by a doctor from Mount
Sinai Hospital. Other doctors
had said that nothing could
be done. The one doctor said:
II promise you nothing. The
baby will need many opera
tions. Each time, ! will turn
the toes In, toward each
other. q little at a time"
Each time. the infants feet
and legs. all the way 10 the
hips, were placed in casts.
The parents could not bear
TO listen 10 the screams of
the infant. The doctor per-
spired as he worked. Little
babies" he said, "have bones
like gristle. We will turn q
little at a time" The opera
tlons continued for three and
q half years. So did the hip
casts. After that. he wore
steel braces. No one expected
anything from him In his life
ahead. He was fat and his
feet were almost straight. but
he could hardly walk. He was
jolly enough. but when he
laughed. tears OF pain shim-
mered In his eyes.
Ed wore the braces until
we was 0. He walked like q
slow rocking horse. His feet
hurt. His hip joints ached.
The boy wanted 10 quit. The
parents wanted no cutters In
the family.
Ed was 10 when he was
taken 10 Tatanagra. In Ben
gal. His father had a big
contract to build the Tata
Steel Works. The Leaches
had a lavish home. lots Of
servants and o promise OF
lots Of money. The fat little
