Tne Food and Drug Admin istration here has ordered the removal of 17 coal-tar colors, used principally in lipsticks, from the list of colors permit ted for unrestricted use in 4rugs and cosmetics. " The order is based on the Federal Food, Drug and Cos- nfetic Act, which specifies that any coal-tar color that is Harmful in significant mounts in the diet of test ttnimals, though safe in small er amounts, must be banned for human use. SSarmful to Animals Feeding tests had shown that the 17 colors involved in tflis order, including shades s red, orange and yellow, were harmful to laboratory animals. the Department of Health, X flucation and Welfare has sponsored legislation, now pending in Congress, that tould authorize the FDA to o get limits on the amount of a color that can be used safe ly, to Specify products in tyhich.it may be used, or both. lender the present law, a "color that cannot qualify as completely "harmless" must be banned altogether. i SVhether the 17 colors af fected by the oder could be eased under the safeguards Rrovidecf in the proposed leg islation has not been deter mined, the FDA reported. Further laboratory tests on animals will be necessary for such a determination. . May Continue Use o By the FDA order, 13 of the affected colors may con tinue to be certified for safe usn in drugs and cosmetics that are applied externally and that cannot get into the digestive system, such as lip stick can. The other four col ors have- never been offered to the FDA for certification for use in drugs or cosmetics . and have been removed . en tirely from the list of colors that may be used by manu facturers for this purpose. " OS the 70-odd colors certi fied by the FDA for use in drugs and cosmetics, about 33 were used in making lipsticks. "Pie order, therefore, cuts the permissible lipstick colors about in half.

NEW YORK CITY A Present For Thrifty Nephews and Nieces ALL BONDS PURCHASED 4fS WHEN Belgium's Not To Be Brussels (UPD The family just doesn't seem to get along well with each other. One son, a bachelor, hasn't been too happy since he was forced to take over the family business from his father. Another son recently got married in the midst of a squabble over whether it should be a church or a civil ceremony. Ana tne father is apparently having some trouble with his second wife over where they'll live. All of which would be their own private business except these are ' members of Bel gium's royal family. The first son is King Baudouin I. His brother is Prince Albert. Their father is ex-King Leo pold III. . Vacation Without Mate The family's latest contri bution to the grinding gossip mill is the fact that Leopold's wife, the beautiful Princess Liliane de Rethy, has twice gone on vacation without her husband recently and he wasn't even at the airport to greet' her when she got back. Instead, he sent the 29-year-old Baudouin. The princess is reported to be unhappy over the new home the Belgian government has proposed that she and Leopold move into, leaving Baudouin alone in the Laeken Palace. Court sources have dismis sed the reported rift between Leopold and his wife by say ing the ex-king 'didn't go on holiday with her because she likes, hunting in Austria and he doesn't. The family hasn't been get ting along too well with the people either. This began when Leopold, who had be- (USUI'S $435 Vi QT. tea t j i i -i n sztfiSvyiHG "W y I f- "THEM ON THE Pvn euER suce vll j7THe WAJ2.. Ill A SAnlS &MP Royal Family Seems Able To come king in 1934 upon his father's death in a mountain climbing accident, kept at his job during the German occu pation of World War II. After the war, the Belgian people were sharply divided J over whether Leopold should still be king. In 1950, a plebi scite decided that he should stay, but after 10 days of riots and demonstrations against him, Leopold asked that his powers be transferred to Baudouin. Choice Opposed One thing the Belgians have long held against Leopold is the fact that he chose a com moner, Mary Liliane Baels, as his second wife and made her a princess. His first wife, Queen Astrid, the mother of Baudouin, Albert and sister Josephine Charlotte, was kill ed in an auto accident in 1935. Baudouin has never hidden the fact that he thinks his father was wrongly deposed. For the first years of his reign, he ruled in isolation from Laeken Palace, where he lived with his father, who con tinued to have a strong voice in the country's affairs. The new king showed his attitude by rarely smiling and by giv ing a generally gloomy ap pearance in public. But ' he has changed 5 since his visit to the United States last May when the; easy, friendly a p p r o a c h of the Americans , seemed to ' turn him into a smiling, relaxed and reachable monarch. Tremendous Welcome Baudouin got a tremendous welcome when he returned home. And the general atmos phere surrounding the royal family lightened further when the 26-year-old Albert an nounced he would marry the vivacious and beautiful Ital ian Princess Paola Ruffo de Calabria. . Then, suddenly, the storm clouds gathered again when it was learned that the wed ding would take place at the Vatican instead of being the civil ceremony required un der Belgian law. Rumors said the Vatican marriage had been engineer ed partly by Leopold. In any event, public opinion forced a change in the plans and the wedding finally took place in Brussels, last July. When that dust settled, it was learned that Leopold would be moving out of Lae ken Palace with his wife and their three children. Castle Selected After looking around for a suitable home for the former king, the government decided on Argenteuil Castle about 20 miles from Brussels. Argenteuil is set in 300 acres of a beautifully wooded park. Transforming it into a home for Leopold and his family, his secretarial staff and servants will cost several million francs. The Socialist opposition howled against spending the money which must come from government funds. Parliament has just been There' are over 68 million pasenger cars traveling on the nation's highways today. Automotive advertisers, who invest more money in daily newspapers than any other group of advertisers, spent $159,227,000 in newspapers in 1958 to reach the drivers of these cars. More than 1,000 ships a year pass through the port of Honolulu, Hawaii's principal city. 40,000,000 Get Along forced to vote a $72,000 an nual increase to- the privy purse for Prince Albert and still another increase is ex pected since Paola is expect ing a child early next year. Parliament already appro priates one million dollars a year f otx the royal family's upkeep. , Plans Drawn Up : Before Argenteuil Castle was suggested as the future home, Leopold and his. wife had drawn up plans for a new mansion on the Laeken Palace grounds. But the plans were vetoed by the government and Leo pold's wife was furious. Some observers think most of the royal squabbling could be settled if Baudouin took a wife. But despite rumors as sociating him with almost every eligible princess in Europe (and even one Holly wood starlet), the young king is likely to remain a bachelor for some time. And the royal family is likely to keep Belgian tongues wagging. at the sign STANDARD GOLD KILL Ohio Couple By Mrs. Clyde Kell Gold Hill-Mr. and Mrs. Grover Kelly of Dayton, Ohio, arrived here recently to make their home-with her sis ter, Mrs. Bertha Potter.
