Lincoln's 150th Birthday Fete
Marked by Joint Congress
WASHINGTON (A’) In some
ways Congress hasn’t changed
since Abraham Lincoln was a one
term representative 110 years ago.
It investigated things then and
it's still in the investigating busi
ness.
What, for example, would
Lincoln have thought of the
batteries of television cameras
that will cover today's joint ses
sion of the Houes and Senate—
a joint session called to mark his
150th birthday anniversary?
Abe Lincoln was a gangling,
bony, clean-shaven man not yet
40 when he was elected as a Whig
to the 30th Congress. He repre
sented an Illinois district that
still was pretty much in the back
woods. From 1847 to 1849, Lin
coln held that House seat, and
did not try for renomination.
For a period, he was a member
of a committee that investigated
what had been done about erect
ing a marble monument ordered
by Congress to commemorate the
surrender of British forces at
Yorktown m the Revolutionary
War.

After the meeting Makarios
told Athens newsmen:
“The agreement reached lays
the foundation for an immediate
and final solution to the Cyprus
issue considering that Cyprus will
become an independent sovereign
state.”
The Greek Orthodox leader
might construe as a limit on
Cypriot independence these two
provisions*
1. A permanent ban on the is
land’s ever joining Greece or
Turkey.
2. A small Turkish troop con
tingent will join a much larger
body of Greek soldiers and the
British garrisons in occupying the
island’s strategic military bases.
Other sections provide for a
Greek Cypriot president and a
Turkish Cypriot vice president;
a legislative assembly, 70 per cent
Greek and 30 per cent Turkish;
and separate Greek and Turkish
communal assemblies to handle
internal matters such as educa

Loomis Says
Rail Strike j
Possibility
ST. LOUIS, Mo. UP)—' The pos
sibility of a national vail trans
portation tieup was raised yester
day by Daniel Loomis, president
of the Assn, of American Rail
roads.
“A strike could come sometime
early next year. We cannot bury
our heads in the sand,’' Loomis
told the National Assn, of Ship
pers Advisory Boards.
At the same time Loomis said
the rail industry planned a head
and-head fight with unions to
change some rules governing rail
road workers.
He charged “featherbedding”
was ruining the railroads and
added “featherbedding was a fes
tering and cancerous growth.”
The industry spokesman sug
gested union leaders join railroad
management and ask President
Eisenhower to name a nonparti
san commission to study work
rules.
From Washington, A. E. Lyon
secretary-treasurer of the Railway
Labor Executives A,ssn, said
Loomis’ comments sounded like
the opening gun in upcoming la
bor negotiations. Lyon rejected
[the idea of a proposed govern
imental commission.
