(International) Claims Ike Won't Impound AF Money Washington (U.R) The Sen ate's top GOP military expert predicted Saturday that Presi dent Eisenhower will not im pound the extra $900 million congress voted the Air Force.

Strong Winds Hamper Forest Fire Fighting Santa Barbara (U.R) Strong winds Saturday hampered ef forts of 400 firefighters to con trol a five-day blaze which has blackened nearly 3500 acres in the Los Padres National forest.

(U.R) Pres ident Eisenhower, pale and weak but in high spirits after three weeks in the hospital, came to his quiet farm home Saturday for "at least" two weeks of convalescence and to weigh his second term plans. The President, accompanied by Mrs. Eisenhower and two of his doctors made the 85-mile automobile drive from Walter Reed Army hospital in Washing ton in two hours and two min utes. The doctors said he showed natural fatigue but displayed no signs of undue strain. While the doctors feel the op eration actually increased Mr. Eisenhower's life expectancy it was bound to cause him to con sider his political future once again. He went through a simi lar period of meditation early this year and decided his serious heart attack last Sept. 24 did not bar him from seeking re election. Mr. Eisenhower has said noth ing about his political future since his operation. White House Press Secretary James C. Hag erty told accompanying report ers today that Mr. Eisenhower has not discussed the subject ! with him either. Dublin's 1st Jewish Mayor Starts Battle on Housing Dublin, Ireland U.R Dub-1 for a week before some Irish policeman successfully counter attacked. Put Up Good Fight "We put up a good fight," the 61-year-old Lord mayor recall ed happily. "The police were led by a lieutenant named Goe ghan. I wonder if he"s still alive and recalls the event." Nobody in Ireland could re call that a Jew ever before held the job of lord mayor in Dub lin's 1,000-year history. Briscoe made it when his name ' was drawn from a hat to settle a tie vote between him and outgoing Mayor Denis Larkin in the City Council. Briscoe, the Jewish Dublin youth who came home from a good business position in New Jersey when he was 22 to. help lin'g first Jewish mayor, who fought the British hold on Ire land and Palestine alike, has embarked on his "biggest bat tle." "Housing." said Lord Mayor Robert Briscoe, "My biggest battle now is housing for my native city. We are still a good way behind our target and the population is growing." Bob Briscoe declared his new "war" while they still were toasting his election in Ireland's 1,200 Jewish households. And in plenty of Christian house holds, too. They like Bob Bris coe here. He fights. Like the time he staged a commando raid on the Irish con sulate in New York and held it fight for Irish Independence, fc now first citizen of a city in whose streets he fought to over throw English rule. Sided With De Valera When the full-scale civil war began. Bristoe sided with Ea mon De Valera, grand old man of Irish politics and a New York born Irishman. During the revolutionaries' quarrel among themselves, De Valera ordered Briscoe back to New York. H made headlines for himself and the cause by staging a raid on the offices of the Irish consulate on behalf of the Da Valera forces. Bristoe said the consul backed the other side of the Irish cause. It took a squad of New York police to oust him from the building, but not until he held it a week. Farm Fresh Vegetables and Fruits at . . .
