James then flew him to another base 25 miles away, where some soldiers heard him whimpering and released him. He is now in a U.S.-supported orphanage.

WASHINGTON Republicans today proposed to cut in half the billion-dollar loan fund for city public works projects carried in a Democratic-sponsored anti-recession bill.

Republican Leader Knowland (Calif) said the measure might be acceptable to the Eisenhower administration if the total were cut to 500 million and some other changes made. As debate on tihe bill re-opened, Democrats fought to cut the interest rate on the loans from to 3 per cent, but lost on a 41-40 vote. today in Flower Hospital in Toledo.

Meyner Candidate Is Choice of New Jersey Democrats NEWARK, N. J. It be Harrison A. Williams youthful former Democratic congressman, against Robert W. Kean, a veteran Republican congressman, in New Jersey's Nov.

4 U. S. Senate election. Williams, a 38-year-old Westfield lawyer, overcame a 72,000 plurality in Hudson County for his chief rival, Hoboken Mayor John J. Grogan, to win the Democratic primary election yesterday by 12,000 votes.

Williams had the support of Gov. Robert B. Meyner and Democratic leaders of 19 of the state's 21 counties. A victory for Grogan, president of the National Shipbuilders Union who was backed by the state AFL and CIO, would have been a blow to Meyner's political prestige and power. Meyner has often been mentioned as a presidential candidate in 1960.

Kean, a 64-year-old banker with 18 years in Congress, won a slightly easier victory. He defeated his nearest rival, Bernard M. Shanley, President Eisenhower's former appointments secretary, by 25,000 votes. The New Jersey senatorial primary was the first in the nation this year. Williams and Kean will run for the seat being vacated by H.

Alexander Smith of Princeton, who decided not to seek re-election. Smith, 78, served 14 years in the Senate. Blue Cross (Continued from Page 1) with some 2,000,000 subscribers, 16.4 per cent, about 4 million dollars, compared to 21.4 per cent asked. Capital Hospital Service, Harrisburg, with some 700,000 subscribers, about per cent, or $2,800,000, compared to 28 per cent asked. Two other Blue Cross organizations, representing about 600,000 subscribers, did not seek increases.

Smith noted that Associated had not received an increase since 1954, whereas Hospital Service and Capital had been granted higher rates within the past two years. He turned down Associated's proposed new reimbursement formula which he estimated would have increased the cost of per diem hospitalization by 10 to 15 per cent. He also disapproved a proposal by Capital to give state- aided hospitals a flat allowance of 3 per cent per diem in lieu of payment for depreciation on buildings. The increases are effective immediately, but Thomas R. Balaban, deputy insurance commissioner, estimated it would take about 45 days for the three agencies to prepare new' rate schedules.

In Pittsburgh the Hospital Service Assn. of Western Pennsylvania announced the increase will go into effect June 1. The boost affects the "21-90" type Blue Cross contract in western Pennsylvania. This provides 21 full days and 90 half days of paid hospitalization. Says liaise Mot Adequate William H.

i'ord, president of the Hospital Service said the approved increase isn't adequate to meet rising hospital costs. He added new rate increases will have to be sought, probably sometime next year. Here are the old and new rates: Group monthly semi-private: individual from $2.15 to widow or- widower and children from $4.30 to husband and wife from $5.35 to family from $5.95 to $6.90. Ward: individual $1.85 to $2.15, widow or widower and children $3.70 to family $5.20 to $6.05. Non-group monthly rate, semiprivate: individual $2.40 to widow or widower and children $4,55 to husband and wife $5.60 to family $6.20 to $7.10.

$2.10 to widow or widower and children $3.95 to husband and wife $4.90 to family $5.45 to $6.25. NEW YORK UP) A shimmer-' Robert E.

A note indicating ill health Of the 11,000 art objects in the as the reason was left, museum, only five other paintings were found damaged in first checks. Two multimillion-dollar special exhibits escaped harm. "I thank God with every breath I breathe," Monroe Wheeler, director of exhibitions and publications for the museum, exclaimed at reports that these works by Georges Seurat and Juan Grls were unharmed. Most precious item in the museum was Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte," valued at more than a million dollars. One workman died in the fire.

Three women visitors and 28 firemen were injured. The art loss was estimated by Alfred H. Barr director of collections, at under $300,000. Nelson A. Rockefeller, chairman of the museum board of trustees, told Fire Commissioner Edward F.

Cavanagh Jr. that four million dollars worth of art had been saved by fire fighters and the museum's staff. For a time a number of persons were trapped. Women museum employes, their clothes soaked with water from fire hoses, risked their lives to carry pictures to safety. Eisenhower (Continued from Pasre 1) The congressman feels, Miss McClendon added, that Eisenhower then would see the need for such projects.

No Irritation Eisenhower replied, with no show of irritation, that he doesn't know Cong. Wright but has visited small villages and towns throughout the more than the congressman. With that Eisenhower recognized another questioner. HIGHWAY whether he intends to sign or veto the $1,800,000,000 highway construction bill, Eisenhower noted he has until midnight to act, and added he will do so by that time. At first he replied that he has until midnight to send a message to Congress.

There was no way of being sure whether that remark might have tipped his hand. not a message to Congress in connection with action on a bill means a presidential veto. GOP congressional leaders have been speculating that Eisenhower will sign the highway measure. ACHESON A reporter noted that Dean Acheson, secretary of state in the Truman administration, suggested yesterday that presidents of the United States ought not to attend international summit conferences. Eisenhower said there may be something to the Acheson view.

Acheson took the position in a Kansas City speech that presidents should maintain a detached attitude and not become involved personally in attendance at heads-of-government conferences. Eisenhower replied he has always felt that way about it, too. But he said he always will be willing to take a risk and attend such conferences if he feels there is any chance progress could be made. That, the President said, is the only way to take a forward step.
