'Hells Canyon Dam
I Washington IP Sen. 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.

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.

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.
But is will not include houses or
automobiles.

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-

Back Stairs: Mamie's Physical Checkup
By PATRICIA WIGGINS 1
Waited Pre Correipondent

"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

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

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

AEC Issues Warning
On Coming Explosion
Las Vegas, Nev. IP) The
Atomic Energy commission has
issued a special pre-blast advis
ory warning in connection with
a scheduled nuclear detonation
next Thursday.
The advisory was issued on
Wednesday after the AEC re
vealed that two women suffered
temporary eye damage from
watching Tuesday's nuclear ex
plosion. The warning indicated
that next weeks atomic blast
might be the most powerful det
onation ever fired in this coun
try.
Judith Burke and Valerie
Graves, both employees of the

tracts for construction work at
the atomic test site, suffered
the eye damage while watching
the fourth test in the series from
