Florists Give Tips
For Centerpieces
Washington -UTH- While
floral arrangement lor a table
selling still is called a center
piece, it docs not have to be
confined to the center of a
table, says the Society of
American Florists.
For example, flowers may
be placed on a rectangular
table this way: at one or both
ends; in one corner; in two
opposite comers; on one side
or in the center.
Subcommittee Chair man
Rep. Beulah Hand (D-Milwau-kie)
put Sandstrom on notice
right at the start that the
civil defense budget would
have to be justified.
Sen. Alfred Cornell (D
Portland) said readiness in
natural disasters has been a
main justification for civil
defense in the past.
"What happened," he said,
when civil defense failed to
warn Oregon after the Oct.
12 storm hit the southwest
corner?
'No Answer'
"I have no answer for that
. . . we are embarrassed every
day by it." Sandslrorn replied.
Sandstrom said his agency's
main program at present is
locating shelters in buildings
in Oregon, marking them,
stocking them with federal
supplies, and training men to
operate them in emergencies.
I lie said a majority oi snei-
ter spaces located so far are
in the Portland area. At the
same time, he conceded that
with sufficient notice Port
land residents probably would
be dispersed to other areas.
He also said some building
operators refuse to allow stor
age of supplies in potential
shelter areas. lie said he did
not know haw many.
N o supplies have been
stocked yet. Sandstrom said,
but a federal shipment is stor
ed in Trouldale for distribu
tion. "Our job is to draw up the
plans to save 1,800,000 lives,"
Sandstrom said.
The legislators were uncon
vinced. Is It Worth It?
"People are not very en
thusiastic about all this," said
Sen. L. W. Newbry (R-Ash-land).
"I'm wondering if we

Newbry termed evacuation
-dispersal plans "ridiculous."
"I'm surprised military peo
ple ever conceived such a
plan," he said, adding it was
difficult enough to get out
of Portland at the end of the
day.
"Where are they going to
live and what are they going
to eat?" Rep. Ross Morgan
(D-Gresham) added.
"These are the questions we
ask ourselves," Sandstrom re
plied. "We'll never know un
til we try it," he said.
Sandstrom said city, county
and state departments func
tioned effectively during the
storm.
Prodded by legislators, he
said they probably would
have functioned just as ef
fectively without the civil de
fense agency.
"The truth of the matter,"
said Morgan, "is that civil de
fense had nothing to do with
it before or after the storm."

Musa predicted a "great

Barton said "these things
make sense."
Hatfield Monday submitted
a special message which call
ed for a new natural resour
ces department to combine
the activities of 20 state agen
cies. Barton pointed to the dis
harmony between the fish

decried the "complete and ut

groups."

Curbs Deal With
Overseas Junkets
Washington-lUPI)- For some
junketing congressmen, pro
posed new travel curbs may
mean bye-bye to Paris, Rome
and Hong Kong. But Capitol
loophole-hunters said today
the rest of the world's loss
could prove to be Hawaii's
gain.
They speculated that Puerto
Rico, Florida, the Southwest
and possibly other sun-favored
spots within the United
States also may be seeing wid
er congressional trade if the
House approves a recommen
ded crackdown on less-than-urgent
travel abroad at ex
pense of the taxpayer.
In recommending the trav
el curbs Monday, the House
Rules committee dealt only
with overseas travel. Some of
the more junket-minded law
makers were quick to note
this did nothing to throw a
damper on official tours in
this country.
This and other loopholes
quickly spotted in the pro
posed new curbs pointed up
a fact of congressional life
on which Howard W. Smith
(D-Va.) already had comment
ed. "f don't know if we ever
will be able to stop all the
abuses," Smith told the com
mittee. At his suggestion, however,
the committee elected to try.
It voted to bar use of so-called
counterpart funds for foreign
currencies held to the credit
of the United States by mem
bers of committees which
have been refused House per
mission to travel abroad.
It also recommended light
new restrictions on expense
accounts of those whose for
eign travel is authorized by
the House as essential to the
taxpayers' interest.
Because of the technicali
ties involved it immediately
became apparent that not ev
ery House committee would
be hit by the new travel curb.
Among those that wouldn't,
the cynical noted, is Rules.
But Rules members with few
exceptions have had to stay
home anyway, mostly because
Chairman Smith would not
approve any travel.
Also left footloose and fan
cy free by the proposed ban
was the Senate. Rep. Ray J.
Madden (D-Ind.), a Rules com
mittee member, said that Sen
ators, from what he reads in
the papers, seem to take off
any time for any part of the
world, possibly just for a
week end.

Virgin and Child
Drawing Said To
Be Disintegrating
London -HTF- A S2.24 mil
lion Leonardo da Vinci draw
ing of the Virgin and Child
in the National Gallery will
disintegrate beyond repair
unless prompt scientific steps
are taken to preserve it ac
cording to the Daily Express.
The 403-ycar-nld charcoal
drawing was paid for in part
by SI 12 million contributed
by (he public. The National
Gallery bought the work last
year from the Royal Acad
emy. No National Gallery offic
ials were available for com
ment on the condition of the
drawing.
Experts To Meet
The Daily press said a
seven-man delegation of in
ternational experts will meet
wilh National Gallery Direc
tor Sir Philip Ilendy next
month to decide what to do
about the drawing.
The Express quoted Ilendy
as saying the drawing "is
fixed on five or eight layers
of paper stuck on to canvas
200 ears old and the paste
has become pretty rotten by
now.''
'There is a tendency for
the patur to come awav from
the canvas as the adhesive
nets nldrr and for the adhe
sive to combine with elements
in tlie London atmosphere to
make the paper more brit
tle.'' Ilendy was quoted as
saying.
Law of Nature
"According n the law of
naline. things cillier go for
ward or backward. Since the
drawing has in. hie, it j going
backward." Honih said.
