The state has $2,281,875 of federal funds for the period ending next June 30 and $2,293,924 for the year ending June 30, 1950. Ray McCarthy, council chairman, explained today's action was taken for two need for special treatment facilities, and the fact that many communities needing general hospitals are unable to raise local matching money. Cost Shared Under the Federal Aid Program, local communities put up two-thirds of the money for a hospital or hospital addition! and the federal government supplies the rest. Currently McCarthy expects about $1,000,000 to be unused by the end of the fiscal year. To help communities which can't raise matching money, the council urged again that the legislature appropriate a fund so the state can supply a third of a hospital's cost.

Charles De Gaulle told a news conference today the French people must have a chance to elect him back to power or he will take other means to "save France." He said the present regime was attacked the five- nation Western European Alliance as "not worth and said the Western Powers were handling the crisis with Russia over Berlin in "deplorable" fashion. The alliance, which France has joined with Britain, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg, he declared, was centered in Longon and "it is wrong to center in London the defense of Europe." He said he did not want the Western Powers to evacuate Berlin, "Above all I do not want them to surrender and said the first interest of England would be defense of itself. The General declined to say what steps he would take to "save declaring "one is obliged to guard some discretion on the plans one can form."

Vishinsky bitterly attacked President Truman and Governor Dewey today on the atomic issue and hinted twice the United States no longer has a monopoly on the deadly bomb. The Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister accused the United States of having atomic a aims," and also struck at David E.

Lilienthal, chairman of the United States Atomic Energy Commission. He called statements by Truman, Dewey and Lilienthal "a shame." Dulles to New York The American delegation announced that John Foster Dulles, a U. N. delegate and foreign affairs adviser to Dewey, would fly to New York Sunday at the suggestion of the Republican presidential candidate for conferences on American-Russian relations. Waving his fists and flushing deeply, the white-haired Vishins- ky spoke for two hours before the United Nations Assembly's 58-nation political committee.

That group is debating the failure of Russia and the Western Powers to agree on international control of atomic energy. Austin Takes Notes U. S. delegate Warren R. Austin took extensive notes on the Russian speech but said he would not reply immediately.

British Minister of State Hector McNeil declared: "We do not know whether RuXsia has the atomic bomb or not. xxx Everyone knows the United States is ready to give her know-how to the rest of the world, xxx Vishinsky said President Truman described the atomic bomb demonstrated at Eniwetok as an iJHB roved model which marked over the bomb explod- in Japan. He sho'uted: "Apparently the President of the United States described as progress now a bomb which will kill half a million people. That is what they call progress." Turning to Dewey, he said the Republican Presidential candidate in a speech at Phoenix, declared America has exclusive possession of atomic secrets. Vishinsky quoted Lilienthal as saying the United States wants to prolong its monopoly on atomic energy as long as possible.

Vishinsky said flatly again the Soviet Union would not accept international control of the production of atomic raw materials because 4he international control organization offered in the American plan would be "an American organization because they have a majority." "It is a mistake," he shouted, "to think that there is just one state which has a monopoly over atomic energy and the atomic bomb. It is useless to think of such a thing. It is useless to hope for that because this fraught with dire and dangerous consequences and 'miscalculations." 1S chat 'Se. by the 328 club mem- After six years as an enlisted a record of driving the country to stimulate "instead of discour-! bors of the 22 clubs will be judg- man he got his commission.

When Wishart, 68-year-old auto mechanic, died yesterday his undertaker, F. S. Schilling, recalled a visit from him eight years ago. Wishart had brought in his will for Schilling to witness. He asked the undertaker if a car he had built could be used for his tombstone.

Schilling said he doubted if this could be done. "Well, then, I want it buried with me," Wishart said. So today, after Wishart's coffin had been placed in the grave, a 200-pound automobile was lowered on top of it. The car was one of three which Wishart had built. Meassng five feet in length and one and a half feet in height, the car had only one seat.

Because of the carVsize, it had no room for-the driver's legs, so any driver had to put his feet-'tri a pair of stirrups outside the body. Its one-cylinder motor came from a washing machine. It traveled about 12 miles an hour. I I.
