UPI Telephoto Republicans Seek New Look At National Debt WASHINGTON (UPI I - House Republicans want to, change the meaning of the national debt lim it, not the limit itself, so the gov ernment can continue to pay its bills. The legislative bombshell was a t-iur plan to convert the legal lim it on tiie national debt now $305 billion into an effective check on deficit spending. The new definition of the debt limit, if enacted, would postpone for nearly four months any need for raising the actual limit. The proposal, put forth Friday, had such strong appeal for Dem ocrats that they cancelled a plan to push a debt limit hike through the House Ways & Means Com mittee immediately. Committee Chairman Wilbur D. Mills, D-Ark.; said he wanted to give Treasury Secretary Douglas Dillon time to determine whether Man Kills Wife, Self BAKERSF1ELD, Calif. IUPI A 36-year-old Bakersfield man shot and killed his former wife early Saturday and took his own life after a gun battle with au thorities. The victims were Joe Berry, 36. and his cx-wife, Juanita. 33. An elderly baby sitter rescued the couple's young daughter. The sitter was shot in the right hand while fleeing to the nearby home of Mrs. Berry's parents. Sheriff's officers reported Berry forced his way into the house. Afler he threatened Mrs. Berry for a short time, the sitter, Mrs. Beulah Watson, 71, grabbed the couple's daughter, Sandy, 4, and escaped. Mrs. Watson told deputies Berry forced his wife to lie face down on the bedroom floor while he played Russian roulette with a re volver. Mrs. Berry apparently was shot in the head a few sec onds before they arrived. Deputies entered the house by breaking down the rear door. At the kitchen, however. Berry got the drop on them, shouting "Get (Detective) Al Cordero out here right away." Deputy John Harris backed out of the house to radio for help when Berry began retreating from the kitchen into a hallway. Deputy Jerry Collins fired two shots at Berry but missed. Cordero entered the house later and went to a rear bedroom in an attempt to persuade Berry to surrender. Instead. Berry took the detective's .38 caliber revolver and fled to another bedroom. More deputies arrived at the scene with stale highway patrol men and firemen, who set up bar ricades around the house. Nine tear gas bombs were lobbed into the house. Nearly two hours after the siege started, officers stationed on a nearby garage saw Bern- trying to flee Irom a w indow. They fired two shots, forcing him to retreat. Tien they heard a muffled shot inside the house. the GOP plan is acceptable to the Treasury. Dillon was on hand when Pep. John W. Brynes, R-Wis., advanced the surprise GOP proposal at a closed meeting of the committee The secretary raised no immediate uujeuiiuus. Under Brynes' plan the Treas ury when computing the debt sub ject to the legal limit, would de duct from the actual debt the cash balances it has on hand. The debt now totals more than $-103 billion, pressing close to the temporary legal limit of $305 bil lion. According to Dillon's projec tions, tlic debt would rise above that ceiling in the first week of June unless new legislation is en acted. The Treasury now has about $3 billion in cash on hand, however Under Brynes' proposed defini tion, the present debt subject to legal limilation would drop to slightly more than $2118 billion. The S3 billion in cash would be' sub traded from the current outstand ing debt of slightly more than $303 billion. Byrnes told a newsman that this approach w ould enable Congress to (ix the debt limit at a level thai would put a check-rein on spend ing without interfering with the Treasury's borrowing operations. Thus the Treasury could market its bonds whenever the market conditions were attractive with out regard to the debt limit, since the increase in the actual debt would be exactly offset by the increase in the cash on hand. War Hero Goes Home NASHV1LLE. Tenn. 'L'PD War hero Alvin York went back to his beloved mountain home Saturday after apparently winning a fight against illness for the fourth time within a year. Two weeks ago the 75-year-old hero of World War I was brought to St. Thomas Hospital here from his Pall Mall. Tenn home. His illness was diagnosed as a blood clot in his left lung. Hospital officials said York was "good condition" when he was released and York said he was h3ppy" to be returning to his Cumberland Mountain home. York won fame, and the Medal of Honor, in World War I when he killed 25 Germans and cap tured iH in one day in laid. Within the past 12 months York had been treated four times at the hospital here. Once it ws for internal bleeding, then for a prostate operation and then just a few weeks ago lor a slignt heart condition. The blood clot was the latest in a series of illnesses plaguing the old soldier. Ptople Read SPOT ADS you ere now. Girl Resents Father's Attitude On Teeners By ANN LANDERS Dear Ann Landers: If I have a nervous breakdown I am go ing to mail . the doctor bills to you because it will be your fault. My father reads your col umn every day like it was the Bible. In fact, if he paid half as much attention to the Bible as he does to your column we would all be better off Every evening he calls me into the living room and says, "Here, 1 want you to see this." Then he hands me your column and I have to read some crummy letter about a teen-age girl who got into trouble. He begins to yell his head bff that I should behave myself or Ithe same thing will happen to me. I have never done anything I am ashamed of and I don't plan to. I've never written to you for advice and I'm sure I never will. Why don't you write about old ladies and pets and lay off teen-age problems so I can get some rest? MISS. STEUBEN- VILLE Dear Miss Sleubenville: Sorry I've been causing you trouble, but I deal with the problems I get. Pointing out "horrible exam ples" to teen-agers serves no useful purpose. If kids are old enough to read they will see what they want to see In their news paper and draw their own con clusions. 1 hope your dad will stop shov ing my column In your face. He may mean well, but continu ous harping would get on any one's nerves. If he doesn't hap- pen to see this one, be sure to point it out to him. Dear Ann Landers: I refer to your reply to "Delta" who wrote about her cold, undemonstrative daughter. The mother said she tried to be affectionate but the little girl pushed her away. You told her the child had probably been rejected and was returning the cold treatment. Constitutional Revision Faces Crucial Test Have you ever heard of "autis tic" children? They are in a shell and do not respond lo warmth or affection. These chil dren are happiest when left alone. If you say to an autistic child (age 4 "Tell the lady your name," he will reply, "Tell the lady your name." since he does not relate himself to others in the normal sense. Parents who have cold, unaffec tionate children are usually mis erable and filled with guilt. It helps to know that some children are born that way. So why not say so? MRS. H. L. Dear Mrs. II, L.: There is no rule for which an exception can-' not be found. Advice, regardless of how sound, cannot apply to every human and to every situa tion. The autistic child is an emo tionally disturbed child. A lack of warmth is only one symptom of his illness. When a child speaks and behaves as if others are not present, the parents should rec ognize this as an illness and that professional help is needed. The overwhelming majority of coid, unresponsive children are not autistic, but rejected.

Ann Landers will be glad to help you with your problems. Send them to her in care of this newspaper enclosing a stamped, self-addressed envelope.

A spokesman at the Presbvte- rian Medical Center reported that Goldman was in satisfactory con dition and that the left eye was "perfectly good. Doctors decided to remove the right eye because an infection endangered the left eye. Albert Luccro and Rudolph Hos kins were indicted for assault in the lye-throwing case. Luccro told officers he hired Hoskins to hurl the lye in Goldman's face because he was jealous over the mer chant's attentions to a female employe of his store.

Since 1857, the present constitu tion has been amended 111 times. Its length has grown to 21,082 words. Many of its provisions to day are conflicting, ambiguous and archaic. Others have stood the test of time. After the second World War, pressures grew to bring the docu ment up to date to meet the needs of a modern state and provide a framework (or the future, not the past. The agitation for constitutional reform by individuals, groups and political leaders led the legisla ture in 1953 to authorize a study. In 1955, the study group rec ommended a convention and of fered a suggested draft. The 1955 Legislature rejected a convention, partly because of the $1 million cost. In 1959, the legislature recom mended an alternative way of re vising the constitution: In a single package that would require two- thirds approval of each house plus voter approval. The next year, voters approved this idea 368,367 to 289.895.

Committees of the House and Senate, during the past three months, have overhauled it sec tion by section, making some changes. Now, to advance to the people, it needs a two-thirds vote of each house.
