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.

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.

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.

Use Of New Army Weapons
Poses Serious Problems
By ELTON C. 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.

New Petroleum Industry
Faces Growth Problems
By 8AM DAWSON
SAN FRANCISCO UV-One of the
nation's leading growth industries
is suifering a little from growing
pains.
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.

The very lustiness of the petro
chemical growth since the war at
tracted a rush of companies !ato
the field and may have caused
temporary overexpansion in some
products. Some 60 .oil companies
and 80 chemical companies are
making one or mora petrochem
ical products derived from petro
leum and natural gas. 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 .
