New Dalhi, India Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru of India, after telling a Congress Party workers rally in Allahabad that he would fly back to New Elelhi for an emergency cabinet meeting scheduled for today: "Although we are not going to interfere in the affairs of Iraq and Lebanon, we are greatly concerned over develop ments in those countries. There is no doubt that these are internal affairs you might call it civil war. But if outside powers intervene in these affairs, there is great danger of world war. Tension is increasing and nobody knows where it will end." London British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan, dis cussing the Mideast crisis during a debate in the House of Comrapns: '"Wie situation is grave and dangerous,' not only for this country but ipt Europe .. . Both the motives of the United 9t$tes ie taking the action they have done and the decision f ler Majesty's Government in giving its full support are t4fjrsloot and will be supported by the nation as a whole." New York Gertrude Ederle, first woman to swim the English Channel, complaining that the sport now is gone from chanel swimming: "Tte channel swim today is commercial. In my day it wjs a sports achievement. Now they endorse products and watches. Thy say they were able to do it because they ate some cereal or other and. they stop in the middle of the channel to hold up their watches and look at the lime." Less BrigHtly Colored Pills Urged To Safeguard Children By DELOS SMITH UPI Science Editor New York ' (UPI) A new and different answer to the urgent question of how ' J&CSXLT"' to prevent S5k young chil- Tl. . 1 dren from poisoni n g thems elves V out of t h e i r parents' medi cine cabinets is for drug At 'manufact u r- u HI mm u , mil "a iu uup Deios smim coloring pills to make them brigtly attrac tive. That answer was given by Drs. Hugh Jolly and T. R. W. Forrest after tempting 613 children one to eight years old with pills of 10 hues. They found that most of the kids reached much more eagerly for a .magenta pill or a blue pill than for a black or wine-colored one. in tne past few years, there has been a decided in crease in the number of young children helping them selves generously to their parents' pills, often with i fatal result.

Opinions Differ This has resulted in man ufacturers and doctors propa gandizing parents to keep pills out of the reach of chil dren. But 'the increase" in child-poisonings has coincided with the fad of coloring pills into all the brilliant shades of a rainbow. Pills used to be black, brown, white or pink. Now they are bright orange, yel low, reddish-purple; they even come in pastel shades. Indeed, there are two - toned pills which came into vogue at about the time the two-toned cars were coming into popu larity. The coloring matter is arti ficial. It has nothing to do with the medicinal value of the pill. Some doctors have complained, saying they were plain M.D.s and wanted to prescribe only plain ' pills. But others have endorsed the colors on the ground that a cheerfully colored pill is cheerfully swallowed. Accidental poisonings . of children have been increas ing uniformly in the great pill - taking countries, the United States and Western Europe, where the multi colored pills have swept the field. But it remained for Jolly and Forrest to put the parallel events to the test of scientific experiment, in Ply mouth, England. v On one plate they put 10 Severql Oregon Residents in Iraq Portland (UPI) A number of Oregon residents or ex-residents were reported to be in Iraq at the time of the revolt.
