Churchill Paintings Steal Show at London Art Display London (U.R) A painting of 12 whiskey bottles, seven glasses and four cigar boxes atole the show at Britain's swankiest gallery Saturday: It was the work of Sir Winston Churchill. Almost all of Britain's big name professional artists were represented in the Royal Acad emy's summer exhibition, but Churchill grabbed all the head lines with what he called a "bot- tlescape." ' It was one of two Churchill canvases accepted by the Royal Academy's often - contrary judges. They were relatively old paintings. The "Bottlescape" was done in 1925. His second paint ing, "Sunset at Roehampton was done in 1919.

He spoke at cornerstone-laying ceremonies for a new $3, 500,000 Marble building, little more than a block from the White House, that will be head quarters for the AFL and CIO when they merge into one big organization this fall. Both by his personal appear ance at the ceremonies, and in the conciliatory words of his speech, Mr. Eisenhower was clearly trying to patch up the sharp political differences be tween labor leaders and his ad ministration. He quoted the words that Pres ident Woodrow Wilson used in laying the cornerstone of the old AFL building in 1916: "If you come at me with your fist doubled up, you will find that I will double mine no less swiftly than you do yours. But if you come at me in the spirit of friendliness and negotiation, you will find that I will say, 'Come, let us sit down together and there, I assure you, we shall find that our differences are far more imaginary than real'." Mr. Eisenhower also used the occasion to reiterate his pledge to work untiringly for world peace. "So far as the almighty will give to this administration and to me personally the ability to discern the proper tasks, we shall do nothing but devote our efforts to try to lead this world this nation of ours toward enduring peace, toward a better prosperity and equal justic for all here at home," he said. He said that "so long as hu mans are human and the millen nium has not arrived," there will always be strife in the world "International, and in some degree among ourselves." "But the character of men and the character of nations will be determined by the method in which they meet to solve their differences," he said. "If we ack nowledge that the differc -r.e is honestly agreed, then Jet tis meet in what we like to term the Christian spirit and reach an answer that is for the good of all." , 9 In 4oat waatAwMeta if ytm I zprt,bck4 by a MtioawM That's rtfi lwttnj 1 In lot mad manoi tor.Najbifth filday heap im Mint t HfW hearta.

Adamson District Manager 839 East Jackson Blvd. Pushkin Approves Western Demands For Road Toil Meet Berlin tU.R) Soviet High Commissioner G. M. Pushkin agreed Saturday to a western demand for a four-power high commissioners meeting on exor bitant highway toils imposed by the Communists on trucks ' sup plying the isolated city of Ber lin, j Pushkin in a note to the Al lied High Commissioners defend ed the tolls but agreed to the request made in a three power note April 15 for a meeting on the problem "as soon as pos sible." Sets Ns Dai The Russian set no date in his note for the proposed meeting, but Western sources said that the Allies now crobablv will cpt a date for the talks. The Soviet's note indicated that the talks had little chance of winning Communist agree ment to abolishing the tolls. Pushkin said the tolls were justified because East Germany spent "large sums" to repair roads used to supply Berlin. The Russian maintained in his note that the East Germans had the right to impose such tolls and that any negotiations on the charges should be be tween the East and West govern ments. Follows East German Line This followed the line of an East German suggestion that the Traffic Ministers of the West German and Soviet Zone govern ments should confer on the dis pute. West German officials oppose such a meeting because Chan cellor Konrad Adenauer's gov ernment does not recognize the Soviet Zone government. Demos Expect Victory For Highway Program SMALL REWARD Maiden, Mass. (U.R) Thieves pried open a window of the K. J.

A Senate highway subcommit tee rejected the administration plan by a 6 to 3 vote late Fri day and approved one sponsored by its chairman, Sen. Albert Gore (D.-Tenn). Gore's measure would provide $13,200,000,000 in federal fund? for highway building in the next five years with the states put ting up matching funds totaling about $8,100,000,000.

(U.R) Immediate withdrawal of the United States from the United Nations and declaration of a "Day of Shame" for American lives lost in Korea was urged Saturday by the Congress of Freedom in its concluding ses sion. Delegates gathered from all parts of the United States round ly criticized the UN and its mem ber agencies as totally ineffect ual in promoting "the cause of liberty." Representatives of more than 500 patriotic organizations ap proved this resolution, summing up a week of specialized study and lectures of the United Na tions: "We respectfully urge the Con gress of the United States, the President of the United States and the people of the United States to sever all connection with the United Nations and oust this foreign, Un-American repository ot political ana po tential might.

It would have been financed in part by the issuance of $20,000,000,000 in government-guaranteed bonds outside the federal debt, a feature which had been the center of opposi tion to the program. Gore predicted the full pub lic works committee will ap prove hir legislation next Thurs day and that the Senate will fol low suit the following week. Under his bill, 510,300,000,000 would be earmarked for super highways and $11,000,000,000 for primary, urban and second roads.
