The House already has ap proved the legislation which is now pending in the Senate The law permitting free entry to this country for an adopted foreign orphan by an Ameri can citizen expired June 30, The legislation as passed, by the House calls for a petition to be filed with the attorney general giving these assur ances: The foreign-born child to be adopted will be properly cared for; the new parents are of "good" moral character, and the adoption conforms to the laws of the state in which the parents live. The law was enacted in Sep tember, 1957. Figures on such adoptions since that time are as yet unavailable but, through June 30, 1958,, there were 2,949 children admitted under the law. Of this num ber, 915 were born in Korea, 369 in Japan, 282 in Greece and 171 in Italy. The remaining children came from 20 other countries in Europe and Asia. Mrs. Kathryn B. Oettinger, chief of the Children's Bureau, said the new law is designed to get around the "hazards" in such proxy adoptions. She pointed' out that more than half of the youngsters from abroad never saw their new parents until the trans action was signed, sealed and delivered. "In far too many cases," Mrs. Oettinger said, "there have been "terrific conse quences for the children."

UvBeig Costs Jump To Record IFogure Washington - (UPD - Living costs jumped four-tenths of 1 per cent in June to hit a new all-time peak, the government reported today. Prices of fresh fruits and vegetables led the advance in the Labor Department's con sumer price index. It was the biggest monthly increase in 15 months. The index moved to 124.5 per cent of average 1947-49 prices. This was six tenths of 1 per cent higher than a year ago. . Ewan Clague, commission er of labor statistics, called it a "seasonal increase." "This is not a sign that the consumer price index is about to take off," he said., Wage Incrtases Due Clague estimated that about 600,000 workers will receive wage increases because of the rise in costs. About 200,000 trucking employees and 100, 000 aircraft workers whose pay is geared to changes in the index will receive two cents an hour increases. Another1 230,000 electrical workers will receive an aver age one-cent hourly pay boost. Higher food prices account ed for most ofthe increase, although prices of all major groups of goods and services except apparel were fraction ally higher. Potato Prices Jump Fresh fruits and vegetables cost 10.9 per cent more in June and potato prices jumped 42 per cent. Prices of celery, lettuce, carrots, apples, or anges, grapefruit and. water melon also increased. Clague said the normal up ward creep of fruit and vege table prices were delayed this year because of rains. This concentrated the rise in one month, he said.
