24--SAN MATED TIMES FRIDAY, APRIL 3, 1953 Cities Battle Country on New Road Plan SACRAMENTO --Members of the urban assembly have opened a fight on the routes proposed in the rural senate for a big, mainline highway system. They gave notice they'll try to get -i bigger cut of any new road building funds for metropolitan needs. Sen. Edwin J. Regan Weaverville) aroused by Assembly Speaker James W.

Silliman's criticism of his route bill as a "political hodgepodge," announced he intends to call the measure up lor a senate vote Tuesday. It was approved by the senate finance committee yesterday. Hearings to Resume In the assembly, a subcommittee looking into unemployment insurance chiseling gave out word it plans tentatively to resume its hearings next week. Committeemen concluded from testimony last week that fraudulent payments may run into many millions of dollars a year. The growing dispute over highway canters on the routes which would have first priority for additional revenue to be raised by tax increases or bond issues.

Regan heads a senate faction which favors a boost of the gasoline tax. Lincoln's Charge Assemblyman Luther H. Lincoln Oakland), author of a bill for a one-cent increase, told a reporter: "We feel that the Regan bill spends too large a percentage of highway money away from the area where the funds are collected and where the acute needs exist." Lincoln said he and his backers have not worked out route details, but that he would like to base the allocation of mainline highway money on registration of vehicles. On that basis, a heavy share would go to metropolitan areas. Regan said he understands four or five amendments will be offered to alter his 4800-mile system or extend it to omitted roads.

But he added firmly, "I am not going to accept any changes." Motives Denied The Weaverviile senator has denied that there were political motives behind the routes spelled out in his bill. Silliman called it a hodgepodge because, he said. the division of highways increased the milage from 3200 in its first to 4800 in the Ragan bill. J. W.

Vickery, assistant state highway engineer, declined comment. He would say only that he followed the terms of a senate resolution directing the division to prepare a mainline route and that "by implication" it called for a 5000-mile system.

Alan Stewart of Millbrae, a dentist with the One Hundred Sixty-ninth field artillery battalion in Korea, aids a member of the Children's Relief hospital in Seoul Into a pair of coveralls donated by the citizens of Pekin, 111. Captain Stewart's appeal to the people of Pekin in behalf of Korean children resulted in their sending over two tons of food and clothing to We Korean needy. Voice' Drops BELMONT, April 3. General lectric's two shortwave transmit- ers here, KGEI and KGEX, have een dropped as outlets for the department's Voice of Ameria, it was revealed today. An announcement last night by Earl Johnson, new head of he international information administration (HA), said that con- which expire June .30 will ot be renewed by the state de- artment.

The other stations in the bay rea affected by the economy move re the two shortwave transmit- ers of the Associated Broadcast- rs operators of KPIX and CSFO, at Islaid creek, San Franisco. Two two Belmont stations have or the past several years been arrying programs of the Voice of America as well as those originat- by the Armed Forces Radio lervice in Hollywood. The oldest of the Belmont sta- ions, KGEI, is 50,000 watts and las been located at Belmont since he station moved from its orig- nal site at the 1939-40 Interna- ional exposition on Treasure Is- and. The second transmitter, CGEX, was opened shortly after World War II and has a power of 100,000 watts. Both stations are just a few hundred yards south of the KNBC radio trans mitter on the salt flats east of Belmont and San Carlos.

WITH THE EIGHTH ARMY IN Alan Stewart, son of Mr. and Mrs. Sanford Stewart of 1174 Hillcrest boulevard, Millbrae, has set up his own relief organization here. He calls it "Kare For Korean Kids" and has already distributed more than two tons of food and clothing distributed from the United States. Captain Stewart is a denfal surgeon with the 169th field artillery battalion and he likes kids.

And he didn't like what he saw in Korea. He didn't like the sight of Korean kids undernourished and poorly clothed. No American soldier does. Captain Stewart decided to do something it. He founded his own relief organization and spread the word back to his wife at Pekin, 111.

Gradually, the people and organizations of Pekin began to uick up the idea, Especially active was the Pekin Junior Women's club of which Stewart's wife, Nancy, is a member. That was back in November. By January the contributions were roHirig in, and even Captain Stewart was amazed. By mid-February he had received no less than two tons of food, candy, and clothing for children of all ages. Stawart then began the task of distributing the donations.

Over a ton of the goods went to needy children in the villages and farm lands surrounding his own bat talion. The rest he loaded on a three-quarter-ton truck and trans ported it to Seoul. One Sunday, Captain Stewart completed his self- appointed task by delivering the re mainder of the donations to the Children's Relief Hospital--an or ganization dedicated to caring for many of the sick, tiny, innocen' victims of war. Even the weakes' of the tiny tots brightened per ceptibly when Captain Stewart gave them a lollypop or helped them try on their new clothing. Stewart completed his errand of mercy none too soon, for he short ly left Korea for reassignment to Japan.

A graduate of the University of Illinois, he was a practicing dentis' in Pekin before entering the army in January, 1952.

Reliable Men and Women Who Can Qualify HEALTH CHATS PubliBhed in the oublic Interest to eipUln how many have become free chronic headache. SUFFERED CHRONIC HEADACHES 17 YEARS From time to time this column has carried testimonials of appreciative Peninsula residents who had suffered chronic or re- i headaches for years and who finally found blessed relief from their head-splitting pains under Dr. Baumeister's Natural System of Health Restoration. Here is another testimonial from a grateful patient who lost her seventeen years of chronic headaches in less than a week. Be assured that this one as with every testimonial is bona fide, given gratefully without any compensation whatsoever.

Dr. W. W. Baumeister, 10 North Street, San Mateo, Calif. Dear Dr.

Baumeister: For over 17 years I suffered from excruciating migraine headaches which caused vomiting and such severe pounding pains, dizziness and feeling of paralysis that often I could not walk without assistance. Often I was forced to lie in bed the day in darkness; even a slight sound or a glimmer of light would cause agonizing head pains. During the past ten years the, headaches were continuous 24 hours a day. During those seventeen years I tried many different doctors and specialists not to mention hundreds of different kinds of remedies without much relief. Still those headaches hung on.

Finally upon the -recommendation of a friend who also suffered headaches and who was helped at your office I decided to come in for consultation. After examination you said that your nerve-tracing instruments indicated that my chronic headaches were caused by chronic irritation of the spinal cord at the base of the brain. Within a week after your first treatment the headaches left completely and now life seems worth living again. I am writing this in the hope that it will help others who suffer chrorvc headaches to get relief, as I did. This testimonial is given freely without compensation in appreciation of my freedom from headaches.

It may be published. Signed, MRS D. TAMARESIS. 452 Grand Avenue, South San Francisco, Calif. If you are sick of being sick with some common chronic painful trouble, that hangs on or recurs despite treatments with drugs and medicines, dial DI 3-3870 for en appointment.

Dr. Baumeister makes no charge for consultation. If he cannot help you, he will honestly tell you. W. W.
