I Stamp Map ? SAN ANTONIO. Tex. (API ? Frederick A. Marsh, a post office clerk, presented the San Pedro library a stamp map of the United States. It's illustrated with more than 100 stamps commemorating historical events and fsmous'men. Want Ads bring quick results. SENATOR SAM ERVIN * SAYS * | i ? WASHINGTON ? I have always enjoyed the opportunity of attend ing the meeting! of the North Carolina Preta Association. I am glad that Senator Albert Oore. my colleague in the Senate from Ten nessee, was invited to speak at one of the sesslona of the press meet ing this year. He is a young man who has served in the Congress with distinction. THE BUDGET The natural reaction to even the (lightest mention of the word budget la to associate it Immediate ly with the most dry of dry dissua sions. Nevertheless, the budget of our Federal government la far reaching and touches the life of all of us. It is a monstrous collec tion of flgures, larger than a mail order catalog, containing 1179 pages, virtually defying the wisdom of the ages to decipher it. If in some far distant age an archaelo glst should come upon the detailed version of the current budget, he would be awed by its size, dumb founded by Its portent. The budget is something we have to live with and study in careful detail. No single Senator ever gets a study made in detail, but the committees break it down Into many parts and go over it with a fine tooth comb. CAN IT BE BALANCED? Not since 1951 has the Federal budget been in balance. .There is much hope that it can be accom plished again. But I note that bal ancing the budget is dependent upon several factors and one that / i i w . possibly has not been called to your attention is that it will take a postal rate increase. Congress will now start hearings on the budget. It Is reasonable to assume now that there will be general agreement on most recommended items. I am glad that there la an increase in the budget lor national defense, but I am disappointed that the administration has seen At to recommend Increased Agures for foreign economic aid. Technical aid and military aid to our friends around the world I am for, but direct dollar aid has failed to serve the purpose for which it is Intend ed and this will require a new ap proach to stop the encroachment of communist colonialism. I hope that the budget can be balanced. I will support any reasonable effort to do this, but I do not think a false hope should be dangled be fore the electorate for political ad vantage. GAS ON GAS If a gallery visitor should re main as a guest of the Senate for a day during the extended debate on the natural gas bill, he would probably detect that verbage has not been scarce on either side of the debate. This is one of the great debates that takes place in the Sen ate. While going on, It gives us time to spend longer hours in committee action. I have not reach ed any final conclusion on how I will vote on this bill. It is so com plicated that J feel it very im portant to get all the evidence be II I ifirit tn't ti BABY BORN WITH 2 FRONT TEETH 1 THOSt FRONT TEETH gleaming In the mouth of newborn Richard A.

(International) Hard Work Is The Rule For Women In Congress By JANE EADS WASHINGTON ? Women mem bers of Congress who lived out of hat boxes and suitcases at home touring their districts and abroad on Congressional junkets all sum mer and fall, are back in the legis lative swim and eager to see action on their own proposals this session of Congress. Hep. Frances Bolton, (R-O), 70. traveled some 20,000 miles on a 99-day tour of South Africa. She has been hard at work on her do mestic legislative duties. But she has also been assembling the crates and suitcases full of notes she brought back to present a comprehensive report of her sur vey to the House Foreign Affairs Committee of which she is a member. Mrs. Bolton, is the first member of Coungress to tour the South African countries in an official capacity. "You'd thinlj she would be all tuckered out," a staff member told me, "but she appears more rested than when she went away." Hard work also kept 74-year-old Congresswoman Edith bourse Rogers, (R-Mass) on the go be tween sessions of the 84th Con gress. Dean of women members on Capitol Hill, Mrs. Rogers' 30 years of service are outnumbered only by those of Sen. Walter George (D-Ga) <33 years) and eight House members. Mrs. Rogers made the rounds of her district not only in the Interests of politicking and fence mending, but to survey pos sibilities for new industries which might help alleviate unemploy ment among her constituents. The sole woman senator, Margaret Chase Smith (R-Me), who visited Russia and other European coun tries in October of 1954, complet ed an intensive 'round-the-world tour with stops In the Far East, Middle East and Ireland in March of last year. With only a 10-day respite in October at her home in Skowhegan, Maine, she has occu pied every minute since then with "the usual work" in her district and here in Washington. The four freshmen among the 17 women members of Congress were Just as busy as their more experienced colleagues. Pretty Rep. Iris Blitch <D-Ga> worked in a new office she opened in her home town, Homeville, Ga. Rep. Edith Green <D-Ore), who cam fore reaching the final decision. I hope that we can avoid night ses sions. It may require weeks before the bill is Anally disposed of. It has already passed the House by a very narrow margin. That's His Word SEATTLE, Wash. <AP>?In a fourth grade "spelling challenge" at the Magnolia Bluff School, the teacher encouraged pupils to test their classmates with new words picked up outside the classroom. Johnny tossed this one to the class: "Antisestabliishmentarianis mically." When the teacher admonished him that the reules required that he be able to use the word in a sentence, Johnny replied: "Sure; here's the sentence: I can spell antidisestablishmentarian ismically." paigned for election in a trailer, got it on the road again for a strenuous tour of her district. Rep. Coya Knutson (D-Minn) and Rep. Martha Griffiths (D-Mich) also toured their districts. For The Birds CHARLESTON. W. Va. <AP> ?
