House Passes Bill To Admit 5,000 Refugees From Europe De Gaulle Receives Royal Welcome On First Visit To London Since War London -(UFtt- French Presi dent Charles de Gaulle donned the old rank of his wartime Free French com mand and returned to his for mer headquartera today with a welcome fit for a king. Back in this capital city 20 yean after ha first arrived here as a little-known briga dier general escaping from Gaulle was given a pageantry rich royal welcome. It was his first visit since the war and de Gaulle wore his former rank. The last time it had been different. Then, he came un known and unhailed. This time he was met by Queen Elizabeth, Prince Philip, Princess Margaret and FRE PICKUP and Delivery During This Special Offer! other members of the royal family, as well as by Prime Minister Harold MacMillan and leaden of the govern ment. The latest round of pre summit consultations began just two days after Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev ended a similar stale visit to France. After Khrushchev's pointed bids for Franco-Soviet accord, Britain seemed especially in tent on reminding de Gaulle of the traditional "entente Cordiale" allying London and Paris. The jet plane that carried de Gaulle from Paris landed at Gatwick airport and he was brought to London by train. There, the pomp and ceremony that are almost sec ond nature to the British took over. An 82 -gun salute boomed out from batteries at the Tow er of London and Hyde Park. He inspected an honor guard at Victoria Station, and then was off on a spectacular trip through the city in an open landau. Thousands of persons lined the route to watch the all, austere Frenchman ride in triumph through the same streets he had stalked during the war trying to restore the glory of war-s hattered France.

The measure was passed Monday by voice vote and now goes to the Senate. Chairman Francis E, Walter (D-Pa.) of the House Immigra. tion Subcommittee predicted relatively few of those eli gible actually would enter the United States. Legislation Asked President Eisenhower has asked for legislation doubling present quotas, which limit the entry of immigrants to about 150,000 a year. He also called for special legislation to admit refugees from other parts of the world, not just Europe, as the U. S. contnbu tion to "World Refugee Year," which ends June 30. The bill had been in the House Immigration Subcom mittee for nearly a year. It was revived by Walter, its sponsor, after the President sent his message to Congress. Called First Step Spokesmen for the United States Committee for Refu gees said in a statement the House-passed bill was an in dispensable first step" toward the refugee legislation that is needed and called on the Sen ate to liberalize its terms. Walter has predicted, how ever, that Congress would not pass other immigation legisla tion this year. His conservative-dominated House Rules committee could block any at tempt by the Senate to libera lize the bill.

Victor Hun- gerford, 39, has been released from the state prison-hospital here, presumably a cured man after undergoing a deli cate brain operation to re move a tumor. Hungerford, a war hero who rose from private to major during World War II and was awarded Bronze and Silver stars and a Purple Heart In Korea, was released on parole after serving a year's sentence for passing bad checks. Knocked to Ground Doctors believe Hunger ford's troubles began when he was knocked to the ground by a shell explosion in 1950. He was checked, pronounced all right, and returned to his company. But Hungerford soon be came a changed man. He de veloped headaches, felt stmt tun IIIII I It 1 HIITtH ' II lillllllll'. Ml It II i hi..h. (I!

Transferred to his home state of Washington, the ma jor commenced to drink, went on sprees, was AWOL and had more amnesia. In 19S4 he was dishonorably dis charged from the Army after 18 years service and sen tenced to a year in military prison for desertion and lar ceny. Last year he was sentenced in California for passing bad checks. Physicians became interest ed and Dr. Hal Holland, a neurosurgeon at the division of medicine and surgery at Vacaville, finally determined that Hungerford had a cyst on the left frontal lobe of his brain. It probably was started by the shell concus sion, he believed. Condition Changed The cyst was removed and the former war hero's per sonality and physical condi tion underwent a dramatic change, said Dr. David Owens, chief of the division. Headaches d I s a p p eared, Hungerford became much more relaxed and his crim inal symptoms vanished. The hospital la sending a complete record of the unus ual circumstances to Wash ington, D.C., suggesting Hun- gerford's case be reopened with a view toward changing the discharge to honorable, thus restoring his civil rights.
