SHAMOKIN NEWS-DISPATCH, SHAMOKIN, MONDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1954 PAGE THREB Tll LI m. TTiinam leu nunrers Trevorton Section Elysburg Section Inside 'Stuff at White House By MERRIMAN SMITH WASHINGTON (U.R) Back stairs at the White House: On the day preceding Mr. Eisen hower's recent banquet appearance at the Jewish Tercentenary dinner at the Astor Hotel in New York, the entire menu from fish to turkey was frozen the day before, then thawed and heated for service to the President. The reason: Wednesday, the day of the dinner, was a Jewish relig ious day of observance. Driving through Hartford, last week, the President was greet ed by a large and crudely lettered sign saying, "Where is Mamie?" He laughed and shouted back to the woman bearing the sign.

"I'm sorry she couldn't be here today." Notes on the President's appear ance last Wednesday night at the Astor Hotel: Every person, including the President, at the two head tables was offered a free highball. Diners in the crowd had to pay for their drinks. Mr. Eisenhower had no drink before he spoke. The chartreuse Lincoln convertible which Mr.

Eisenhower used in New York had a distinguished record. The weekend before, the same car was used by Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball.

The deer is believed to be first one filled with bow and arrow by Trevorton sportsmen.

Boy Born to Maine Family of 13 Girls PITTSFIELD, Me. (U.R Truck driver Lloyd Brooks no longer will be pointed out by neighbors as father of the nation's biggest all-girl family but he doesn't care. Because in losing the title, he gained at long last a son. Leslie Benjamin Brooks was born into the family of 13 eirls shortly after noon yesterday. He arrived weighing six pounds eight ounces in the living room of the family's remodeled schoolhouse home on Snake Root Road.

But Brooks, who Is 39 and makes $50-a-week driving a truck, dis closed he had been hoping secretly for a boy each time his wife gave birth. His hopes went astray 13 times, but came home yesterday "I'm so glad it's a boy," he said. "I've always wanted one, and now that it's happened I hope it will be the end though I expect he'll be spoiled." The father said he wasn't wor ried about another mouth to feed on his slim paycheck. "We'll get by," he said.

"There's always room for one more." Eunice, eldest daughter in the family at 16, said she and her sisters were somewhat dowcast because they'd sewed pink clothes, expecting another girl.

Poland Frees (Continued from Page One) disappeared in Prague four days after Hermann's arrest, or of Noel Field's foster-daughter, Erika, who dropped from sight after flying to Berlin to seek some trace of members of her missing family. In western capitals the Polish admission that Hermann Field was framed was accepted as a Communist backdown, forced by Swiatlo's disclosures and the resulting United States note to Warsaw demanding the release of the Cleveland, Ohio, architect. In its explanation, the Polish government pictured itself as innocent of any knowledge of the Field case and pinned the sole blame for the "groundless charges" and the "framing" of Hermann Field on Swiatlo.

"Hermann Field has been released and full satisfaction given him," the Pap agency announcement said. "Investigation has shown that the charges levelled against Hermann Field by the agent provoca teur Swiatlo were groundless." Laceyville Area Man Dies in Auto Accident MOUNTAINTOP (U.R Geonre E.

Wood, Republican gubernatorial candidate, today pledged increases in workmen unemployment compensation "in line with the cost of living." "This is a pledge of the Re publican Party and I am for it 100 per cent," Wood said. "I ought to be because I saw to it that this pledge was included in our party platform." Wood premised also that if he is elected, there will be "no tampering" with the school teachers retirement system.

Transportation (Continued from Page One) transport agencies to maintain an "artificial rate structure that in too many instances is much lower than the true cost of performing the service." Therefore, he added, the entire rate structure of transportation is as a whole inadequate "to meet the inflationary trend that has taken tilace in our econo my during the past 24 years." To enable railroads to pun out oi their difficulties, he urged: 1. Return the equivalent of 3 per cent tax on freight and 10 per cent tax on passenger transportation to railroads with the requirement that they match it and earmark the combined funds for roadway maintenance.

2. Enact legislation similar to the Hobbs-Truman Act concerning navigable streams so that railroads would be required to pay onlv for benefits actually received in grade crossing separations and all beneticianes oi Dnages ana grade crossing protection share maintenance costs. 3. Permit private and contract carrier tonnage to move over railways as it presently moves via airway, highway and waterway. 4.

Curtail importation of residual oil. 5. Provide tax relief for passenger transportation deficits. 6. Permit appeal to the Interstate Commerce Commission when states prevent discontinuance of unnecessary service operated at a loss.

7. Provide federal aid for stockpiling railroad freight and passenger equipment for emergency use. 8. Arrange for government loans to railroads for equipment and plant modernization, to be repaid by reduction in charges for moving government freight.
