Henry ! M. Jackson (D-Wash.). asked the ! Senate today to "right the wrong i at Hells Canyon" by authorizing i the government to build a single high dam on the Snake river in the Pacific Northwest. The Eisenhower administra tion has approved private con struction of three smaller dams on the river between Oregon and Idaho. Work on the three dams already has begun. Democrats are sponsoring the legislation to reverse the admin istration decision and have the government take over the job. Debate on the bill began Wed nesday. MJT T.B TO Judge Uses Poefry To Hand Down Ruling New YurK V- A judge . literally used poetic justice on j Wednesday in a case about eight trees that grew and died in j Brooklyn. i The city has sued the Brook- lyn Union Gas Co. for S755, ! charging that leaking natural i gas killed eight Norway maple i trees. It asked that the case be tried in the borough of Man hattan, but the gas company i maintained the suit should be considered in Brooklyn, where the trees lived and died. The ruling by Municipal Court Judge Guy Gilbert Ri baudo. favoring the company, was in the form of a poem. jz? 0 IFS lE f Laboratory-tested ...so you re always sure it's sojt, safe, and strong- Your choice oj pint, yellow, green, or white. .

The fritroductiiui of what is an entirely novel financing system in the Soviet has been announced by Minuter of Intern al Trade D. V. Pavlov. Pavlov called in Russian and ' foreign correspondents to make the o announcement. He said credit buying would be intro duced in retail trade "very short ly" It has not been announced how much and which goods can be bought now and paid for later.

Novelty Draws Crowd A few such machuies already have appeared in Moscow stores, I They are such a novelty that a crowd invariably gathers when : one is unveiled. Some of the first did not work well and there was the familiar sight of a man banging a machine with his fist to get his money back. I Pavlov said the demand for ! consumer goods was increasing i tremendously. Praticularly pop- Paviov had another surprise : ular are automobiles, motor for the Russians. Two hundred cycles, sewing machines, refrig thousand automatic vending erators, pianos and furniture. Demand outstrips supply. In some instances, the govern ment has priced goods well above their cost of production so that they will be beyond the financial reach of many people. The cheapest Soviet car. for instance, sells at 15.000 rubles. At the 10 ruble-per-dollar tourist exchange rate, that means S1.500 and is impossibly high for the average family. The newest car, the "Volga," sells for 30.0UO rubles which only a wealthy Rus sian can afford. Another new technique the Russians are investigating is the self-service super market and other stores. Delegations which visited the United States and Sweden were very much impres sed by this type of merchandis- I ing. Back Stairs: Mamie's Physical Checkup By PATRICIA WIGGINS 1 Waited Pre Correipondent "ishington iff Back stairs "t the White House: Mrs. Eisenhower's "top fo toe" physical checkup this week, just Jour' months after her last ex amination, is in keeping with doctor's orders and her own rsummer plans. The first lady's personal it-iends backed up Press Secre tary James C. Hagerty in de Scribing her trip to the Army's Walter Reed Hospital Monday as "purely routine." They noted that Mrs. Eisenhower for years Aas been getting complete physi cal examinations twice a year, and sometimes more often. a heart murmur since a child hood attack of rheumatic fever. This obliges her to take it some what easy and is an added rea son for regular medical check ups. Mrs. Eisenhower's intimates also report that the timing of her present checkup is tied in with Mrs. Eisenhower's summer plans. With the official White House social season ended in May, Mrs. Eisenhower is said to be anxious to get up to the Gettysburg farm for her usual extended summer stay. A checkup now would make a return trip to Washington unnecessary later on. The medical advice from her doctors is that it is the better part of wisdom for women to have such regular checkups aft rr reaching a "certain age." And, though she doesn't look it. the fiO-year-old first lady has reach ed it. Also, Mrs. Eisenhower has had Mamie May Leave Hospital Today Washington W Mrs. Ma mie Eisenhower was expected to return to the White House to day, ending a four-day physical checkup at Walter Reed Army medical center. White House Press Secretary James C. Hagerty said the First Lady w ould accompany the Pres ident to Constitution Hall to night where he will address the convention of the Young Repub lican National federation. Hagerty announced Monday that Mrs. Eisenhower was ex pect to spend several days at the hospital undergoing a "routine" physical checkup. He said the j President has spoken to the First ! L4dy by telephone during her stay in the hospital's president ial suite. Newsmen questioned Hagerty intensively about the first lady's Walter Reed visit because they recalled that her health became a political issue even before the President's did. Early in 1955, when she be came ill and cancelled all ap pointments. Democratic Nation al Committee Chairman Paul Butler predicted that her health would keep the President from seeking a second term. Republi cans jumped all over Butler in a political donnybrook that was forgotten six months later when the President suffered a heart attack while vacationing in Denver. are that he didn't relish heading for the old Indian treaty room Wednesday in the current on slaught of record-breaking, hot, humid weather. The top floor conference room crowded with sweltering news men, screams for air-conditioning even without the addition of the battery of television and camera lights which push the thermometer even higher. By the time the President arrives, the room already resembles a steam bath chamber. Before the last conference, Hagerty was asked by long-suffering newsmen if there was any chance of switching the meeting elsewhere. Hagerty sadly re plied: "Nope." He laughed with the rest when this plaintive question was ask ed: "Any objection to bathing suits?" Reporters and photographers have a new name for the White House because of their frequent trips to the President's farm since the arrival of warm weath er. The name: "Downtown Get tysburg." The President usually looks cool and collected during his news conferences, but reports Russian Vessels Enler Mediterranean Istanbul.

Tanker Said Still Burning Off France Brest. France W The ab andoned hulk of the tanker Stony Point burned fiercely off this "Land's End" port today, a blazing memorial to 12 seamen killed when it collided early Wednesday with the freighter Ioannis. The Ioannis. a 9.345-ton Greek motor-freighter, limped into Brest under its own power late Wednesday night. Harbor fire men helped to quench the fires still blazing aboard. Rescue vessels from five na tions picked up 64 survivors, including 1st engineer J. Tay lor and chief mechanic James Triff. both of the Stony Point. Taylor and Triff were the only Americans involved in the wreck. AEC Issues Warning On Coming Explosion Las Vegas, Nev.
