Political Pull Alleged In Case Of Tydings’ Kin WASHINGTON — A federal revenue official to!d House tax probers today a cousin of former | Sen, Millard Tydings of Maryland had escaped disciplinary action as a tax agent in Atlanta because of “political intervention” in Wash- ington. The witness was Henry R. Peter- son, now a super the Alcohol Tax York and an assistant supervisor of the Atlanta office until last | year. Testifying before a Ways and Means subcommittee investigating reported political tampering with the Alochol Tax Division, Peterson detailed the “feuds” and “office politics” he said were engaged in by Donald S. Tydings, identified as .a first cousin of the former Democratic senator. Peterson testified that Donald | lings, now an examiner for the sion in Washington, was inves- ited by Treasury agents in 1948 for allegedly borrowing money from an Atlanta liquor dealer and failing to pay it back. The Alcohol Tax Division is a unit of . the Internal Revenue Bureau. Peterson identified the liquor dealer as James Garner, and said he was “reputed to run liquor into the dry counties of Georgia.” Although the “zeneral expecta- tion’ of employes of the Atlanta office was that disciplinary action would be taken against Tydings, Peterson said, nothing happened. “The reaction was that due to political intervention, no discipli- nary action was taken against Mr. Tydings,” he te: ud. Lonig List Of Price Controls ’ Lifted Today WASHINGTON i?—The govern- ment today lifted price controls from nearly all dry groceries, cig- arettes, copper and aluminum. Price Stabilizer Joseph Freehill said controls will be retained only on coffee and coffee concentrates in the dry grocery line. Items on which controls were re- moved include breakfast cereals, flour, soups, jams, jellies and sim- ilar products. At the same time the Office of Price Stabilization (OPS) dropped its requirement that ceil- ing prices be posted in stores. Aside from a very few selected items, such as rice, controls now have been taken off practically all foods. In the major metals field, OPS is retaining curbs only on prices of steel and nickel. The.removal of—eeilings. from cigarettes also applies to other to- bacco products. Cigars, however, have been free of curbs for some time. Today’s action was the fourth removal of price curbs since Presi- dent Eisenhower. called for ending controls in an orderly manner be- fore April 30, the date on which they will expire sntomatically. ‘The National Intercollegiate ten- nis championships will be held June 22 - 27 at Syracuse Univer- sity, TODAY'S STOCK MARKET NEW YORK ® — The stock market was narrowly mixed today at the opening with trading on the quiet side. ond day of lower margin require- ments contrasted sharply with the vigorous advance ‘yesterday, the best of this year.

The net result may be to force these groups into more extreme Positions against the government. ! A more extreme position would be antagonistic to the West. If this antigovernment coalition materializes, the real opposition in the next few months will be not in the Parliament but in the streets. The opposition coalition is not.above working with the under- ground Iraqi left wing. Such political agitation may force the government into making a fatal mistake—diversion of oil revenues from the development board to the current budget to Pro- | vide superficial reforms demanded by the opposition.

Mrs. Ray replied, “No — well hardly ever.” It was agreed there should be a book in that. Out of the welter of research Mrs. Ray did to find out why other people “You can recover from physical fatigue in a short period of rest. Mental activity can’t tire you. What does tire the sedentary worker is emotional stress and strain — anxiety, fear, sense of inadequacy or inferiority, worry, indecision, apprehension. You must replace these with constructive emotions. “The cure for fatigue is in- creased activity, either in work you love, or play.” Mrs. Ray’s favorite cure for worry is physical activity. If you busy yourself with a physical activity, she says, it’s necessary to bend your whole thought to what you are doing and the worry drops out of your mind.
