MILITARY REVIEW Washington MIIPD- President Kennedy put on a spectacular military review on the flood lighted White House grounds Wednesday night lor Tunisian President Habib Bourguwa. Duncan Denies Pearson Charge Of Double-Cross Salem-UPD-A week of nego tiations ended with a bang and a whimper Wednesday night when charges of a "dou ble-cross" snuffed out a spe cial meeting on a three-way workmen's compensation com promise. It made chances of a three way bill, or any other work men's compensation legisla tion, appear virtually nil this sesi Ion. The special House ., Labor Committee session was called a few hours, after Speaker Robert Duncan revealed he had reached a "so-called com promise" with Sen. Walter Pearson on three-way. In the most sharply-fought controversy of the session, the House Labor Committee has refused to release Pear son's original, Senate-passed three-way measure. Duncan agreed to ask the committee to look, at the new alterna tive. ' . Newsmen Upset Things . Both Duncan and Pearson were present at - the tense meeting when the appearance of newsmen caused Pearson to turn on Duncan. "I am sick and tired of being double crossed," Pearson declared. "You don't arrive at a conv promise when the press is present. ' Duncan denied a double cross, but the exchange prompted committee members Ed Whelan and Sidney Leik en to leave. Later, the two returned and Whelan moved to adjourn. Only Chtdrman'W. O. Kel say. a three-way opponent, voted against ending the meeting. , . Further Sessions Unlikely Later, Kelsay indicated no further sessions appeared in the offing. The original three-way bill, bitterly opposed by labor, would have let private insur ance firms write workmen's compensation Insurance. The state now enjoys a monopoly. The compromise would have let private firms into a corner of the workmen's compensa tion field, Duncan and Pear son differed on the extent. ; simimniimieir ttfliresstes! SIZES FOR EVERYONE!

Til :00 Presidential Suites Furnished With Antiques ; rison Kennedy buys antiques for presidential suites only. She would like to Indulge her taste for antiques in more i M it. nn nnn 1 I oi uie ai,uuu uuiei ruums sue supervises as vice president in charge of decorating, de sign and architecture for the Sheraton hotel chain. But most of the rooms are too small for anything but Danish modern. Time was when Mrs. Ken nedy's firm did not furnish even its spacious presidential suites with genuine antiques. A visit from President Ei senhower changed that. The chain owned New York's Astor hotel at the time, and Mrs. Kennedy had Just a week to get the presi dential suite ready for Mr. Eisenhower. In her opiulon, nothing but antiques would do, and there wasn't time to talk her out of it. She rushed over to Third avenue, the heart of New York's antique district, and tracked down enough Ameri can Colonial pieces for three rooms. It was the first hotel suite she ever decorated with antiques, and the idea caught on with her firm. Antique Furniture Now, all the presidential suites in the chain are fur nished with antiques selected by Mrs. Kennedy. The average presidential suite has a 20x30 foot living room, two bedrooms and two baths, Mrs. Kennedy said. It is not easy to find the right pieces for such a large suite. A large suite generally de mands a sofa, loveseat, two commodes, two wing chairs. desk, small dining table. four straight - backed chairs and a curio cabinet or other occasional pieces. I If a suite is being readied especially for a president or presidential candidate, there is also the question of which period antiques would be most suitable. Mrs. Kennedy redecorated two presidential suites in Chi cago last summer for the GOP national convention - one for Vice President Richard Nixon, the other for New York Gov. Nelson Rockefeller She asked a tew discreet questions, then settled on French antiques, mostly from the Louis XV period, for the Rockefellers; American Colo Stocks Continue Firm; Blue Chips Increase New York -0IPD- Stocks con tinued firm this morning.
