AGE t-A HERALD AND NEWS. Klamath Falli, On. Monday, September 25, 1961 Congressional Leaders Hope Sessions Will End Tuesday WASHINGTON 'AP-Congressl goes back to work today, hoping: for adjournment by Tuesday night at the latest The leaders were keeping their fingers crossed. Still to be disposed of were three appropriations bills. If all goes smoothly, there is a chance Congress members still in town may be on their way home or starting jaunts as early as to' night ' Saturday was to have been the windup of the present session. apparently, much ' of the House took the hope seriously and House leaders were wondering today if a quorum would show up. These are three major items re- maimng: 1. The foreign aid bill It has passed both branches, but awaits a final settlement in a Senate- House conference. The Senate vot ed $4.19i.600,000 $539 million more than the House. Reports persist that a behind-the-scenes agreement has been reached. 2. A public works measure car rying funds for rivers and har bors, flood control, reclamation and atomic energy projects it also has cleared both branches. the Senate voting $3,040,926,880 and the House $3,662,701,380. Con ferees may meet today. 3. A final supplemental catch all measure the House voted $373,040,923, the Senate Appropri ations Committee upped this to $1,060,894,578. Plans to close down the 1961 session Saturday night collapsed when Republicans blocked Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mans field's plan to bring up the aup Elemental bill. IH.I. . 1 I 1 lilis measure nau own ap proved Friday and under Senate! rules had to lay over until Tues day unless unanimous consent were given. Senate Republican Leader Everett M. Dirksen of Il linois said Sen. Winston L. Prouty R VL, had notified him objection would be made. . Prouty was not on hand to give his reasons. However, some Dem ocratic senators fighting the Du Pont Co. tax bill thought it was involved. This controversial measure was called up for Senate debate Sat urday but had no chance of final passage unle'5 Congress was forced into this week. It cleared the House last Tuesday. The measure would ease the tax burden on Du Pont stockhold ers who might receive General Motors stock in an antitrust di vestiture case. Under present law, stockholders who got GM stock would have to pay about $1 billion in income tax. The bill seeks to cut the payment to about $359 million. This legislation ponded as the Senate met today. Mansfield said he would put it iside from time to time for Senate-House confer ences reports and other business including the supplemental mon ey bill, the key to adjournment. He did not rule out trying to bring up this appropriations measure today if he could gain consent to do so, but said Tues day was more likely. Sen. Albert Gore, D-Tenn lead ing the fight against the Du Font measure, told a reporter he still was confident it would be forced over to next session. Gore and Sen. Paul H. Douglas, D-UI., had planned to leave for Europe Sunday on trips for their Senate committees, but postponed them to continue a fight on the Du Pont bill. Dirksen said tne senate may stay in session long enough to act on this legislation. - A few important measures were disposed of Saturday. . Sent to President Kennedy were bills he asked establishing a new disarm ament agency and creating 760 supergrade and high-pay scientif ic posts in the government. The Senate cleared for the Pres ident a disputed bill extending the Mexican farm labor program two years.

He stood at the corner of Mach- nowerstrasse and Koenigsweg in the wooded parkland on the west ern edge of Berlin. Behind him, on the other side of double fence of barbed wire, stood two Vopos (Communist peo ple's police) in their Soviet-style uniforms. "They always patrol in pairs,' the West Berliner said. "They have to watch each other. They never talk to us. Anyone who did would immediately become sus pect." . ' Thrbuoli a Cap in the fence, narrow road led up Into the woods on Communist territory.

A hundred yards away in the wood6. Com munist flags flew over a check point on the road. A young girl came down the road on a bicycle. She greeted the two Vopos cheerfuljy. gave another greeting to the Western policeman, and rode on, without. stopping, into the American sec tor of Berlin. She Is one of the 200 inhabit ants of Steinstuecken, an isolat ed enclave of West Berlin terri tory a mile beyond the Allied per imeter. The road to Steinstuecken closed to all except those who live there. The tiny community it self is entirely surrounded by the Communist barbed wire but, for the moment, its inhabitants are left in peace and are allowed ac cess to West Berlin. Gen. Lucius D. Clay, President Kennedy's special representative in Berlin, regards Steinstuecken as a symbol of Western rights in the city. One of his first acts after arriving here last week was to visit the enclave by helicopter, Friday, three U.S. soldiers were1 flown In to set up what looks like a permanent Army post in the community. A helicopter airlift is keeping them supplied. Theoretically, Western forces in Berlin have the right to drive up the road to Steinstuecken, But no Western troops have gone to the enclave In years except by heli copter.. Any attempt to force the road past the Communist check point could create an ugly incident. "I hope the Americans never try it," the Western policeman said. "It would only stir up trou ble and give them a pretext over there for closing the road alto gether." At the side of the road, scores of bicycles were lined up in a shelter. A cream-colored West Berlin double-decker bus stopped at the crossroads. "Steinstuecken," the conductor called out. It was the end of the line. Several of the passengers fetched their bicycles from the shelter and rode off toward the enclave. Others walked. They all knew the guards on both sides, and greeted them. Most Steinstu ecken inhabitants seem to feel it's best to keep up friendly re lations all round. An East German truck with loudspeakers mounted on the roof drove up to the border from the Communist side. "The program of the West Ger man militarists is bankrupt and doomed." the announcer yelled. "Even President Kennedy is turn ing away from them. The West Berlin problem will soon tx. solved." "It goes on for hours every aft ernoon," the Western guard said, "It's part of the war of nerves, "The din drives even the Vopos crazy. A week ago one of them suddenly couldn't stand it any more, and just came walking in over the line, machincgun and all." He interrupted himself and put out his hand. "Excuse me, sir,", he said, "you have one foot over the line You have to be very careful, you know. "We don't want , to create any trouble." By ANN LANDERS Dear Ann Landers: Recently a woman wrote to you and com plained because her mother-in-law kept nagging hei to have a little girl. She said she had three bovs and didn't want a fourth She also said if someone would guarantee her that the next child would be a girl she'd So ahead. You said no such guarantee could be Eiven. Well, you're wrone. I can give it. My grand mother told me that tne ovaries on the left side produce girls and the ovaries on the right side pro duce boys. If a girl is wanted the mother should sleep on her left side during pregnancy. If a boy is wanted she should sleep on her right side. It worked for me. I have two of each. IN THE KNOW Dear Lucky: Your grandmother was simply repeating a myth that her erandmolher probably told her. It has no basis in scientific fact. The sex of a child Is deter mined at the moment of concep tion. Sleeping on your head won't change it. Dear Ann Landers: I'm 23, have a good-paying job and I live at home. My mother is a very sweet woman but my father is a tyrant who bullies everybody he can. My; two older brothers moved out ot the house when they finished high school. They come to sec Mom on Saturday afternoon when Dad isn't here. I meet my dates downtown be cause Dad makes insulting - re marks to every fellow who comesl to tho house. He says I'm sneak ing around behind his back and accuses me of being immoral. He has slapped my face for no rea son at all and I've had headaches that lasted for days. I'd love to move out of the house and I could manage finan cially with a roommate, but I'm afraid to leave Mother alone with Dad. He's so mean that her life would be unbearable. In the mean time, I'm READY TO KLIP Dear Ready: You can't spend your life acting as a buffer be tween a tyranical father and a long-suffering mother. She hat probably learned to accommodate to his personality belter than you think. I hope you will move out of the house before your doctor tells you to move Into a hospital. Dear Ann Landers: We are strictly mind-your own business folks but something has happened which we feel may warrant change of policy. The next-door neighbors are lovely people and we are on excellent terms. The parents went on a three-weeks' vacation and took the two young er children with them. They left the 18-year-old son at home. He has been entertaining a 27- year-old trollop whose reputation is well known in this town. We've seen them coming and going at odd hours. My wife thinks we should tell the parents when they return. The boy has had one year of college but apparently he still doesn't know much about life. My husband says it's none of our business. I say I'd appreciate it if someone made an effort to save our U-year-old son if he were in this kind of danger. Who is right? CONCERNED Dear Concerned: Your husband. You can't save an 18-year-old boy from a 27-year-old trollop es pecially if he doesn't want to be saved. This boy's pattern of be havior was established long before his parents left town. Say nothing and concentrate on your own son. 11 alcohol is robbing you or someone you love of health and dignity, send for Ann Landers' booklet, "Help For The Alcoholic," enclosing with your request 20 cents in coin and a long, self-addressed, stamped envelope.

Eisenhower. Chairman Barry Goldwater, R- Ariz., of the GOP Senatorial Cam paign Committee said before he left for the Gettysburg, Pa. ses sion he expects general agree ment for an all-out effort to cap-! ture additional House and Senate! seats. GOP National Chairman Wil liam E. Miller and Rep. Bob Wil son, R-Calif., head of the GOP Congressional Campaign Commit tee, already have said that if Re publicans work hard enough they can capture the House. Goldwater aims for a nine-seat gain in the Senate, where the GOP now is outnumbered 64 to 36. From the attacks taken recently by Eisenhower and the three par ty chairmen. President Kennedy and his advisers have come to the conclusion they can expect hard-swinging attacks by the Re publicans on foreign policy ac tions as well as on domestic pro grams. Kennedy was reported by close associates as having been upset about Eisenhower's recent attack on his handling of international developments. Miller has been es pecially critical of the President's role in the Berlin crisis. Goldwa ter and Wilson have added to this chorus. The President has decided, it was said, not to answer any of these attacks himself but to work at preserving the surface biparti sanship on international matters. There is every expectation that Civil Rights Leaders Urge Federal Pressure Cold Strikes Wide Front By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Rain and drizzle persisted Sun-! day night along a cold front stretching from the Great Lakes to Texas. The nearly stationary mass of cool air appeared unable to push eastward into areas swel tering in record-breaking heat. Tropical air over the eastern third of the country pushed tem peratures into the 90s Sunday from Pennsylvania southwest to Texas. Presidio, Tex., was the hottest with a reading of 101 degrees. Fog and drizzle covered tne New England coast but skies were fair and the night was warm else-i where in the East and Southeast. Early morning temperatures were in the 70s over much of the area. Rains continued to drench the Chicago area, adding 3.40 inches over the weekend for September total of 11.72 inches. The previ ous September high was 8.97 inches in 1936. High winds accompanied the: rain in scattered areas of Illin ois. Indiana and Missouri. A roof was torn from a gymnasium in Shelby County, Ind. Funnel clouds were sighted near Marissa, 111 and Caldonia, Mo. WASHINGTON (AP) The Civil Rights Commission called today for action by the President and Congress to speed school de segregation. "The nation's progress In re moving the stultifying effects of segregation in the public elemen tary and secondary schools- North, South, East and West is slow indeed," the commission said. The she commission members were unanimous in recommend ing that Congress require every; local school board that operates! segregated schools to tile a de segregation plan with the federal government within six months. Such plans would have to call for at least a first step toward full compliance with the Su-I Swedes Bolster Congo Forces STOCKHOLM (AP) Sweden will strengthen its 1,360-man U.N force in the Congo with a mortar platoon and more weapons and ammunition, the Foreign Ministry announced Friday night. This is in addition to four Saab J29 jet fighters and a 35-man air force unit announced earlier. Sweden also will send four transport planes and additional helicopter crews, the Foreign Ministry said. preme Court's 1954 desegregation decision at the beginning of the following school year. Desegrega tion is to be completed as soon as practicable. Sens. Joseph S. Clark, D-Pa., and Rep. Emanuel Celler, D-N.Y., have introduced a similar bill in Congress. One commission member, Rob-1 crt S. Rankin, chairman of Duke University's political science de partment, dissented from another recommendation. This was a pro posal that Congress withhold from a. state up to 50 per cent of the federal education grants normal ly available unless all its public schools are operated on a nondis criminatory basis. - Rankin said the recommenda tion's net effect "might be puni-l as negotiations over Berlin get in the tough stages he will call on Eisenhower to stand beside him. But Kennedy has made it clear that this doesn't cany over into the domestic field. He was quoted as telling congressional leaders that it would be a critical blow at his administration's world posi tion If the Democrats should lose a substantial number of Senate and House seats. He felt, the President was said to have added, that the Democrats are going to have to fight back harder than ever against the Republican at tacks on the administration's rec ord. In response to this urging, the Democratic National Committee went all out to brag about the ac complishments of the Congress which is about to close up shop. As a member of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey, D-. Minn., got all the administrative assistants of party senators to gether recently and handed out campaign kits plugging the adm istiation's program and carrying suggested answers to Republican criticisms.
