Low Water Buffalo New
Victim Of Rustling; High
Price Of Meat Said Cause
By DON IIUTH
MANILA. HI Cattle rustling has
come to the Philippines and with
e, distinctly Oriental slant.
Instead of the cow and steer,
it the lowly carabao, or water
buffalo, that's being rustled. It's
a lucrative business because of the
prices the animals bring at the
slaughterhouses.
Furious over the slaughter of this
country's main beast of burden.
President Ramon Magsaysay has
taken quick action. He also has
touched off a controversy.
On one of his first provincial
trips after he became president
last fall, he found water buffaloes
wen being deliberately maimed so
they could no longer be classed
us work animals and could be
Slaughtered.
Some had nails driven Into their
hoofs to make them lame. Others

Comment On
Manion Case
WASHINGTON W Dr. Clar
ence E. Manion says his dismis
sal as chairman of a presidential
commission stems from his views
on states rights- and was ' trig
gered" by his support of the
Bricker amendment to limit treaty
powers.
Manion, former law school dean
at Notre Dame, announced last
Wednesday that ho had been
x asked by the White House to re
sign as chairman of President Ei-
: senhower's Commission on Inter-
' governmental Relations. He said
the request was made by Sherman
Adams, chief presidential assist
ant.' - -
What happened, Manion told In
terviewers on an NBC television
. program Sunday, was that:
"Alams told me I was very busy
and he thought I should resign.
- That's precisely what he said. I
. asked for some further explana
. tion. He said there had been some
dissatisfaction on the part of the
commission. He refused to ampli
fy. He said it had all been de
cided. He never said I was fired
because of the Bricker amend
ment." Republican Gov. Dan Thornton
of Colorado, a commission mem
ber who said after a talk with
- versy had anything to do with
Adams last week he didn't think
the Bricker amendment contro
Mnnlon's dismissal, stuck to that
view.
"Although I have the highest re
gard for .Dr. Manion," he said In
Denver after the TV show, "he
was too busy going around the
country making speeches Instead
of doing his job. The commission
was brought into being by Con
gress and was given a March 15
deadline to accomplish its pur
pose. They nave done some work
but only what should have been
accomplished In two or three
months."
Manion said that when he was
selected for the commission post,
the White House knew he had a
heavy calendar of speaking en
gagements and "I was assured
it would take only two or three
days a month." He said he had
plenty of time to devote to the
commission and worked for It part
of every day.
Slides Cause
Train Wrecks
PORTLAND, M-Slldcs loosened
by recent heavy rains caused two
train wrecks in the Pacific North
west Sunday.
A twin-engine Diesel locomotive
and 10 cars were derailed when

east of here.
Twenty miles north of Ridge
fleld, Wash., a Union Pacific pas
senger train struck a small slide.

wero derailed but the rest of Uie

were slashed above 'the hoofs so
their legs eave out.
Magsaysay hit the ceiling. He
said it not only was cruelty to
animals but was sabotaging his
agricultural development program.
The carabao supply, badly depleted
during the Japanese occupation,
wus needed to increase the rural
economy.
Magsaysay ordered the navy to
seize shipments of caraDao en
route to Manila for slaughter. In
spectors found a majority of the
animals were healthy.
Magsaysay put investigators to
work. They found the country's
carabao uuppiy was decreasing
and rustling was a thriving, profit
able business. One area reported
more than 3,000 carabaos stolen
from farmers for butchering in
Manila.
The President asked Manila
Mayor Aisenio Lacson for permis
sion to place an army veterinarian
in the slaughterhouses. Lacson re
fused on the ground it would vio-
Jnte existing laws.
Magsaysay countered by signing
an executive order banning the
slaughter or carabaos for one year,
He said he wus ready to approve
uie expenditure of live million
dollars, If necessary, for froze
meat imports to Insure the Philip
pines an adequate supply.
Meat prices Jumped after the
ban went Into effect. Irote dealers
went to the President's office to
complain. Legislators argued over
the issue. Letters both supporting
and condemning the President's
action appeared in the press.
Magsaysay is standing firm. The
carabaos are needed, he said, If
the Philippines expect to increase
its food production and make his
agricultural program work.
Billy Graham
Tours England
LONDON W) A Labor member
of Parliament said Monday Billy
Graham will meet British laborltes
in an ttempt to quiet bitter crit
icism sparked by antl-Soclallst re
ference in a calendar advertising
the American evangelist's coming
appearance In Britain.
Laborite Geoffrey de Freitas an
nounced in a press statement that
Graham "has asked to see me and
my colleagues of the parliamen
tary Socialist Christian group on
his arrival. The meeting will take
Place on Friday morning at the
House of Commons."
Graham and his associates aool-
ogized profusely earlier Monday
mat tney really meant to blast
secularism," not "Socialism."
The uproar was touched off last
week by a calendar put out by
uie uuiy uranam Evangelical
Assn., as Graham headed for a
Uiree-month religious crusade in
Britain. This was the offeding
quotation:
wnen uie war ended, a sense
of frustration and disillusionment
gripped England, and what Hit
ler's bombs couldn't do, Socialism
with Its accomDanvlns evils short
ly accomplished.
"England's historic faith faltered.'
The churches standing gradually
empltied."
De Preltas said Graham, who is
scheduled to arrive in Britain
Tuesday on the liner United States,
had wired an "explanation and
apology to the 14 million labor
voters for his mistake." He said
an apology also hud been received
from Graham's organization in the
United States.

TV Star Builds New Home;
Can't Get Away From Piano
By BOB THOMAS
HOLLYWOOD l Well, you've
never seen a house like Lluer
ace's! I had heard that the wavy-haired
piano pounder of TV had a fabu
lous new home, but I had to see
it to believe it. The place is lo
cated in a quiet residential area
of the San Fernando Valley.
I hunted for a long time for
a house that would suit me," Lib
erace said. "But all the places I
looked at feU short of what I
wanted. So I decided I would have
to build my own.
When I first talked to the
architect, he asked what I liked.
I said I liked drama and comedy;
I liked ciua.;ical music, but I also
liked Jazz, I worked closely with
Cave Explorers
Back To Daylight
CRYSTAL CAVE, Ky. I The
next explorers entering Crystal
cave's deep passages will be able
to follow a trail of shoes, socks,
sleeping bags, winter underwear
and many other items.
Members of last week's seven
day expedition into Uie cave dl
mysteries left all excess when they
headed for daylight Saturday.
In addition to wearing apparel,
they abandoned two gasoline
stoves, a substantial store of med
ical supplies, much food, canteens
and other items worth hundreds of
dollnrs Inside the cave but mostly
worthless oulside.-
Camp was broken yesterday at
the cave entrance in MammoUi
Cave National Park, 15 miles out
in the rugged souUieni Kentucky
hills from Cove City and loo miles
south of Louisville.
The explorers, headed by Joe
Lawrence of Philadelphia, re
mained intrigued by Crystal's un
solved depths, however, and many
said they'd like to return later for
an even longer exploration.

him, sketching out things I wanted
and picking out everything down
to the hardware for the furniture.
"The result is what I wanted.
It has drama, but there are also
touches of humor. It Is actually a
classical modern."
, Lee (yes, he does have a first
name) showed me around the
place and I was Immediately
struck by the color scheme. "I
wanted it done in black and white.
and this worked in nicely with the
charcoal shade that is so popular
now," he remarked.
There are a few other- bright
colors, but nearly everything is
black and white or shades thereof.
Do you get it? The piano' motif?
You can't miss it. When vou
walk in the black-and-white living
room, the first sight Is the im
mense piano, the longest made. I
was told that this piano would be
moved aside for another. The new
one, Just as gigantic, will have a
plexiglass top. Thus the view of
the pool will be unimpeded.
The swVimlng pool, you see. is
also In Uie shape of a piano. Large
black-and-white keys 88 of them
are painted at one end of the pool,
giving the illusion of a huge,
piano.
Back in the living room, your
gaze falls on the. large, glass
topped planter In the shape of a
piano. On shelves about the fire
place were dozens of miniature
pianos collected from all over Uie
world.
We continued into the bedroom,
which was dominated by a huge
bed. On the cover was a large
script L, entwined in a piano. To
each side were lamps with bases
of glass, on which were etched
pianos.
The bathroom was done in mir
ror and black. Not a sign of a
piano that I could see.
The rest of the house was equal
ly dazzling: Uie piano booisends;
the musical notes for andirons; the
lyre-backed chairs in Uie dining
room; Uie dresser knobs bearing
the piano signature; the bar with
spinet and Libcrace's trophies.
And don't forget the candelabra.
They were on the piano, of course,
and Uie mantle and hanging in the
hall.
Somewhat dazzled. I made my
leave, but not before signing the
guest book. Uh-huh, It was sniped
like a miniature piano.
