President Marios indicated
Saturday night after a meeting
with Sandys that Cyprus might
reject the help of Greece and
Turkey to end its communal
strife and rely on Britain alone.
The bearded archbishop, him
self a Greek Cypriot, told news
men, "I think it would be bet
ter if Cyprus accepts only the
help of Great Britain." He said
that was because Greece and
Turkey have direct interests at
staRe in the island.

terrorizing the Greek Cypriots
by sending a dozen warships to

"Except for one or two re

situation has greatly
improved. The Greek Cypriot
side moved out of certain areas
and British troops now are lo

Summit-Level
Diplomacy Comes
To Cow Country
Erhard Enjoying
Wide Open Spaces
JOHNSON CITY, Tex. (UPI)
President Johnson brought
summit-level diplomacy to the
folksy cow country Saturday.
West German Chancellor Lud
wig Erhard allowed as how he
liked it.
Standing on the sunlit lawn
of the main house at the LBJ
ranch, Erhard puffed on a big
cigar and told his host how
pleasant it was to be in the
wide open spaces.
With interpreters standing by,
the two chief executives posed
for photographers and talked
about the warm weather for
this time of year.
Mexican Cigars
Erhard's cigar was supplied
by White House Press Secretary
Pierre Salinger, who put a
whole box of Mexican cigars at
Erhard's disposal. Erhard puff
ed contentedly.
A number of German report
ers went to the ranch and Mrs.
Johnson, a brilliant flash of col
or in her orange-red wool dress,
ran to the door of the bus to
shake hands with e a c h as he
stepped down.
Lynda Bird, the Johnson s 19-
year-old daughter, later look the
German press corps on a guided
bus tour of the ranch.
Erhard had an aerial view of
the ranch as he flew in by heli
copter with Johnson. There was
more relaxation in store.
Summit meetings usually take
place in such overwhelming
quarters as tne Palais de cnail
lot in Paris, in the pillared halls
oi Geneva or the majestic
United Nations building. This
time, it was in the comfortable
but informal living room of the
white frame and limestone John
son ranch house. The atmos
phere was refreshing.
Have Some Barbecue
President Johnson specified
in his welcoming remarks that
he hoped Erhard would have
some Texas barbecue . There
was also to be venison sausage.
The chef had laid in 600 pounds
of beef and 200 pounds of potato
salad.
The entertainment for Erhard
represented an amazing cross
section of American culture.
Van Cliburn, the concert pi
anist from Kilgore, Tex., was
set to play Brahms and Bee
thoven. Linda Loftis of Fort
Worth, Miss Texas of 1061, was
scheduled to sing.
Fredericksburg, Tex., was ex
cited. When the President and
the chancellor attend services
today at Bethany Lutheran
Church in the town, much of
the service will be said or sung
in German. The sermon will be
in German by Rev. Henry F.
Tnptow, the pastor.

Development of One-A-Year
Birth Control Pill Foreseen
CLEVELAND, Ohio (UPI) -Jean
Bourgcois-Pichat, director
of the National Institute of Dem
ographic Studies In Paris,
France, predicted Saturday the
next 10 years will see the de
velopment of a birth control
pill that can be taken only once
a year lo replace those which
now have to be taken almost
daily.
Bourgcois-Pichat spoke to the
American Association for the
Advancement of Science confer
ence here as part of a seminar
on birlh control measures,
Select Desired Sex
Kingsley Davis, a University
of California sociologist, said
that methods of selecting the
desired sex of a child were
also likely, but said they were
further off than the new birlh
control pills.
Davis said that although the
unprecedented population
growth had brought general
agreement that the birth rate
must he lowered, the conse
quences have yet to he explored.
W. Lee Hansen, a UCLA econ-
1st, discounted grim fore-
casts of severe overcrowding
and called for a scholarly study
which, he said, would undoubt
edly strengthen the case for
birth control.
Hansen said economic gains
which ' would bring a higher
standard of living by slowing
population growth would make
birlh control one of the best in
vestments for underdeveloped
countries.
Dr. Christopher Tictze, re
search director of the National
Committee on Maternal Health,
said there was little proof that
repeated pregnancies might im
pair the hcfilth of mothers. He
said the U. S. Census Bureau
and the University of Chicago
planned to conduct a study of
the effects of child bearing on
women's deaths.
l.S Million Users
He said birth control pills
were currently being used by
about 1.5 million American
women. He said the success ot
birth control methods had
caused many women who had
been sterilized by surgery lo re
gret Ihclr decision.
nourgools-Plchat said studies
showed most parents in western
countries desired three children.
Ho said those desires indicated
development of foolproof birlh
control methods would result in
a declining human population.
In another paper presented to
the conference Saturday, Rich
ard H. White of Purdue Univer
sity and Albert E. Vattcr of the
University of Colorado Medical
School described an experiment
with mosquitoes which may help
solve the riddle ot human vision.
Movement Noted
White and Vattcr said an
electron microscope examina
tion of the eye of a mosquito
showed tiny vesicles formed in
the center of the eye, moved to
the front surface and brnko
open, spilling the contents.
The two scientists said Ihey
believed this was the mechan
ism by which Vitamin A was
transported to the nerve end
ings in the eye. They said that
although the structure of the
mosquito eye and human eye
differs greatly, they felt the
basic processes might be the
same in both. jf
