MONDAY, APRIL 19, 1954 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON pags stmt Hie Spends Easter In Georgia AUGUSTA, Ga. Uft-It was a happy Easter for alt the Eisenhow ers, from the President and the First Lady right on through to I their youngest grandchild in her perky new bonnet. The grandchildren David, 6, Barbara Anne, 4, and Busan, 2 started the day at the Little White House with a rousing egg hunt which the president got up to watch shortly alter 6 a.m. The grownups went to church later, and when the President got home he and David put on their "little stunt," as Grandfather Ei senhower termed it. It went like this: . The President, a big grin on his face, clapped his hands smartly. David pulled open his navy blue suit coat In i. twinkling and whipped from his belt with buckle Inscribed "8mokey" a man sise i six-shooter cap gun. The youngster was just about as fast on the draw as a real live cowboy,, and. the President got a hearty laugh out of it. But President or not, he couldn't . ' conceal a bit of caught-in-lhe-act - uneasiness when David's mother, Mrs. John Elsenhower, showed up "Don't tell your mother," the President said In an aside to his ' ffrandsdo. "Cover up the gun." ' " Back it went fast into David's belt, and the blue coat whisked over it, But mother saw It and said to the two of them In a tone of mild and smiling reproach: "This la not much of a religious theme." All of this took place on the lawn in the bright sun in front of the Little White House at the Augusta National Golf Club. The President and Mrs. Elsen hower had Just come from 9 a.m. worship at the Reid Memorial Presbyterian Church, and they were dressed In their Easter best. bo were their son John, an Army major, his wife Barbara, and the First Ladya mother, Mrs. John S. Doud. .Mrs. Eisenhower wore a white straw hat with a flat crown and a wide curving brim edged with navy blue grosgrain and with tabs the same color in back. A Sally Victor number. Her dress was by Molly Farnls a navy blue silk with white polka dots and elbow length sleeves. The designer said it all added up to the new "dancing girl" silhouette. At her shoulder the First Lady wore a three-orchid corsage. Alter the services Elsenhower laid the cornerstone . of the new Reid Memorial Church. Later the President and John played golf. Naguib Ousted By Council CAIRO, Egypt on Lt. Col. Gamal Abdel Nasser once more was Egypt's boss Monday, In title as well as In fact, and Ma). Gen. . Mohamed Naguib was relegated to a figurehead presidency. In the latest lightning shift In the turbulent Egyptian political Dleture. the young army oi- council early Sunday switched the premiership and military govern orship from Naguib to Nasser. The 63-year-old Naguib, who re cently lost out in his light to re . establish parliamentary rule in Egypt, swore m a new caoinei. The first formal session, lasting less than an hour, was held Sun ' day night under Nasser. He re portedly outlined general poucy. Naguib did not attend. A decree by Naguib also re ; llnquished to Nasser the military ': governorship set up by tne martial .! law clamped on Egypt after the ; 1952 Cairo fire riots. Crank Slashes Easter Paraders NEW YORK W Easter pa raders, happy and smiling in the spring sunshine, jammed Fifth Avenue for their traditional stroll Sunday. But one man in their midst had little spirit for the oc casion. After dresses of about 15 women were slashed from behind, police arrested razor-carrying Joaquin Gonzales, 27. He denied cutting the dresses but told police, "I have no use for women they cheat and they lie." Later in court he struck at a patrolman and bit and scratched him. He was held for investigation of the dress slashing and for fel onious assault on the policeman. Police said he bad once been a mental patient. Only a few In the Easter throng were aware of the dress slashings. Most enjoyed the fine weather and the display of new spring outfits. Finger Caught In Machine LOS ANGELES Ifl-Carol Down ing, 3, put her finger into the slot of a drugstore chewing gum mi dline. It stuck there. Bystanders couldn't get it out. Neither could the crew bf a police ambulance. So the gum machine was sawed off and, with Carol, was loaded into the ambulance. As the ambulance sped to a hospital, street bumps Jiggled the machine free of the finger. Carol was taken home.

FAY AP Military Affairs Reporter WASHINGTON Wl New weap onsatomic cannon, guided mis siles, rockets are giving the Army firepower undreamed of not many years ago but they also are creat ing serious problems in the al ready intricate business of running an orderly, efficient battle. These are among the problems tovbe worked on in maneuvers, in volving 100,000 Army and air men, starting this week in the Carollnas. They are the first big-scale exer clses involving the firing or simu lated use of virtually all new weapons. Deciding, what weapons to shoot at what target has been a source of argument even with convention al artillery and aircraft. The ad vent on the battlefield of "artil lery" that can range out from 20 to scores or even hundreds of miles and has a much greater demolition radius is compounding uie proDicm.. The Army's new 280mm. cannon. which like the Corporal missile or the Honest John heavy bombard ment rocket fires either atomlo or conventional explosive, Is an ex ample. The approximately 11-Inch gun has a maximum range of about 30 miles. Under present organization, the gun Is considered "corns artil lery." That means that control of batteries of the gun rests with the headquarters of a corps (a corps usually Is composed of two or three Army divisions.) The control does not go back to a higher headquar ters, such as a theater command, where coordination of tactical bomber and fighter-bomber air craft of the -Air Force and Navy is maintained. Yet the range of the 280mm. (run and bombardment rocket, and es pecially of the guided missile, reaches out far ahead obliquely to either side of the normal fight ing front of a corps.

Petrochemicals the . family of products once looked upon as mere by-products of oil -refining has shot up since the war to produce such widely accepted products as synthetic fibers for clothing, de tergents for cleansing, synthetic rubber for tires, a host of plastics, fertilizers and Ingredients used in medicine and food processing. Today the industry is suddenly face to face with such facts of life as overcapacity here and there, keen competition, price queaslness and even the hard-sell. But industry leaders say It's merely a matter of getting their second wind; the industry is fund amentally healthy; and leading companies continue their expan sion plans. They insist that nei ther product possibilities nor mar ket potentials have begun to be exhausted yet. Phone Users Own Company MEXICO CITY Wl Telephone users in Mexico City are becoming stockholders In the company willy nilly. To get a phone moved or in stalled, the prospective subscriber iiuos himself under heavy pressure to buy phone company common stock. This seems not much of a hardship, since the stock has been paying 10 per cent. But lt is hard on the small storekeeper or the middle class householder without much capital. He goes to the com pany to ask for a phone. Generally be Is told there will be a lone wait one or two years unless he wants to "help the company buy new equipment by Investing in SIOCK." If he makes an issue of it. they will take his application without a stock purchase. But he knows he has a long wait. If he spends 1,000 or 2,000 pesos $115 to 1230 on stock, he is promised the phone witnin a lew weeks. In the first month of such sales. the company placed 3'4 million dollars worth of stock. One com pany official said the campaign has done away with a black mar ket in phone ' installations, for which demand has been tremen dous. -! i H SHORTY COATS SIZES ' ' ' ' I nS3 : 34.95 VALUES ' ; tt ' V ' t Here they are!

Rubber companies have jumped In, and now nearly a third of their sales are accounted for by their chem ical subsidiaries. Leading petrochemical producers are now adjusting to the new com petition marked by two things: the rapid expansion and growth of ca pacity, and the slackening in de mand for some of the industry's end-products, such as a few of the synthetio fibers and auto tires .
