(UPI Telephoto) Arson Probers Seek Cause of California Fire Los Angeles -(UPD- Arson investigators probed the cause today of a potentially dangerous . brush fire which erupted in the exclusive Cold water Canyon area, causing slight damage to actor Charl ton Heston's $150,000 home and one other before it was brought under control. Three boys in the area were questioned Sunday night by investigators but were re leased a short time later. In vestigators said the blaze broke out under "suspicious circumstanoes." Under Control Some 300 firemen encir cled the swift-moving blaze Sunday and put it under con trol within four hours when strong winds blowing up to 60 miles an hour suddenly subsided. Heston's home, still under constrution, escaped damage by flames which were whipped to within 200 feet of it, but heat from the churn ing fire - shattered several large' sections of plate glass. The actor was reported in London working on a film. Other homes periled by the blaze included those of .such stars as singer Frank Sinatra, Ginger Rogers, Pejlgy Lee Cardinals Created; Pope Speaks on Birth Control Stand Vatican City (UPD Pope John XXIII today created eight new cardinals, includ ing two Americans, and in ac companying ceremonies reaf firmed Roman Catholic oppo sition to "erroneous doc trines" of birth control. The Pope noted that hunger is a "grave problem . . . f or a large part of mankind." "To remedy this most seri ous calamity one cannot in any way resort to erroneous doctrines and harmful and deadly methods of limitation of offspring," he said. "It is necessary instead that the riches drawn from the earth be placed . . . at the dis- and TV star Edd (Kookie) Byrnes.

The elevation of the eight new cardinals, two of whom are American, increased the number of princes of the church to an unprecedented 79. ; The 79-year old pontiff for mally announced the names of the new cardinals to 33 of their fellows in the Vatican's Consistorial hall: They gave ritual approval to the appoint ments, which had been an nounced in advance. Pleased with Meetings The pointiff spoke briefly in Latin, expressing gratifica tion over his recent meetings with President Eisenhower and other statesmen - all of whom, he said, were inspired by a sincere will for peace. Seven of the eight cardinal designates were in Rome for the consistory and subsequent week-long ceremonies that will give them their red hats of office, including Archbish op Albert Meyer of Chicago, and Aloisius Muench, Fargo, N.D., former apostolic nun cion of Germany. .

Ben son issued a bristling state ment from his hospital bed today declaring he does not plan to quit, despite GOP sentiment against him in the farm belt. "Resign?" Benson said.

Benson's statement was is sued from Walter Reed Army Medical Center where he is recuperating from abdominal surgery." Renewed speculation about Benson's political future was roused by a new round of re quests for his resignation by some Republican national committeemen in the farm states. The requests were prompted by the belief that farmer , resentment against Benson's policies was hurting the GOP. Republican National Chair man Thurston B. Morton, who disclosed the committeemen's proposals, said Sunday that he did not believe Benson would be forced out of the Cabinet. 'Whipping Boy But Morton conceded that Democratic farm leaders had made Benson a "whipping boy" and identified all farm troubles with Benson person ally. The pressure on Benson has been intensified by the fact that farm income declined 15 per cent this year and is ex pected to drop again in 1960 to the lowest level since 1942. -Advertisement- New Filter Cigarette Ratings On File With U.S. Government New Tar and Nicotine Determinations of Filter Cigarettes Brand Y (King)...
