Eden Says Churchill Still
Dominant Figure In House
LONDON W) Sir Anthony Ed
en became Britain's 42nd Prime
Minister Wednesday but told Par
liament Sir Winston Churchill will
remain the "dominant figure" in
the House of Commons.
, Eden appeared in the House a
few hours after receiving from
Queen Elizabeth II the mandate to
Churchill's. His appearance did not
set off much of a "demonstration.
There was a sound of approval
from the Conservative benches be
hind him, but the Laborites were
silent. It was evident the Com
mons still had its mind on Chur
chill, who was not even present to
hear the tributes of Eden and Cle
ment Altlce, leader of the Labor
opposition.
Eden said Churchill's greatest at
tribute in statesmanship rests on
the fact that "he brought a most
complete vision" to problems be
fore him and always cut through to
their core.
"When he comes back from his
holiday he will still be the domi
ant figure among us," Eden said,
adding:
"I for my part will do all I can
to serve our country."
Dr. Francis Now
Writing Vital
Report On Polio
By JOHN BARBOUR
ANN ARBOR Wl A University
of Michigan professor has with
drawn to his home to diagnose the
health history of two million chil
dren. For the last two days, Dr. Thom
as Francis Jr., has been working
at his cherrywood desk, writing
the report on the success or fail
ure of the Salk polio vaccine only
four days from completion.
His wife, Dorothy, and his
household maid, arc the buffers
between Dr. Francis and an in
quiring world. He will talk only
to associates on the telophone. His
front door is closed to inquiring
voices. Dr. Francis says he will
issue the vaccine report April 12
and no sooner and he means it.
This Is a big job, evaluating
some 144 million pieces of infor
mation into what could be one of
the greatest scientific and medi
cal achievements of the century.
He says his answer will be free
from bias, pressure and wishful
thinking.
To back up his words, Dr. Fran
cis has retired to work in the calm
of his own study. There's no doubt
that he did it to help his peace
of mind too as he weighs numbers
representing children.

Churchill, who gave up the pre
miership Tuesday under the burd
en of his 80 years, departs next
Tuesday for a rest in Sicily.
Attlee, opposition leader, said
Churchill "gave leadership to
the county when it needed it
most." His voice seemed to break
a little when he spoke of his party's
"warm affection" for the wartime
leader.
Eden at 57 in the youngest Prime
Minister in three decades. He al
so is the first divorced man in his
tory to hold the job.
On receiving the appointment at
Buckingham Palace he kissed the
Queen's hands as do British Am
bassadors sent abroad.
Phuong Switches
Loyalties Again
By JOHN RODERICK
SAIGON, South Vict Nam W
Dcnyong reports he had switched
loyalties again. Gen. Nguyen
Thanh Phuona, convert Cao Dai
commander, Thursday reaffirmed
his support of Premier Ngo Dmh
Diem.
Phuong rame over to Diem's
side recently with an estimated
10,000 members of his sect': priv
ate army. Thursday he accused "a
group of Frenchmen whose
thoughts are still anchored in
backyard colonialism" of seeking
to overthrow Diom's government.
"The Cao Dai armed forces re
fuse to share the evil consequences
of such a policy," Phuong declared.
"The Vietnamese people have suf
fered nine years of fratricidal war
and should not be victims of furth
er massacres."
Phuong's declaration, did not
identify the French elements he
charged with opposition to the gov
ernment. Some French officials
are generally believed active in
the quarrel between the U.S. -backed
premier and South Viet
Nam's three privately armed re
ligious and political sects. How
ever the French commissioner gen
eral, Gen. Paul Ely, is regarded
as completely neutral in his deal
ings with the crisis.

mittee. He said some senators are
attempting a "modern crucifixion"
of Stassen.
The subcommittee, headed by
Sen. McClellan (D-Ark), is looking
into reports that FOA had selected
the highest bidder to get a contract
for a grain storage project in Pak
istan. Stassen announced Wednesday he
is rejecting all bids for the proiect,
and will call for new ones and a
fresh start.
Bender, praising Stassen as a
"man of integrity," said in his
statement that should have been
enough to halt the inquiry. He
added:
"This week we are commemora
ting the greatest crucifixion of all
time, and considering what we
stand for in these United States, I
am not interested in a modern
crucifixion when all that is involved
is a desire for a few headlines."
McClellan said Bender "doesn't
have his facts straight" and added
that the Chioan "had acquiesced"
in having the inquiry. Sen. Mundt
(R-SD) said "I can't see how it
is" a crucifixion.
Sen. Ervin (D-NC) said "I know
of nothing to justify the unfortu- ,
nate deductions made by by col
league. Sen. Bender."
The inquiry stood in recess Thur
dav, awaiting word from Stassen
whether he will furnish documents
which McClellan told him the sub
committee will attempt to subpena
if necessary.
Stassen said he would review
whether the subcommittee has a
right to see the documents under
the constitutional separation of
nowers between the executive and
legislative branches of government.
He said he would take full res
ponsibility for anv decisions FOA
made in its original selection of
the Agricultural Construction Co.
of Los Angeles to get the contract.
