Ike Satisfied

WASHINGTON (VP) President Eisenhower yesterday
brushed aside questions of a U.S. missile lag and declared:
"I am not in the slightest degree disturbed."
Eisenhower, the very picture of confidence, assured a
news conference that when he enters summit talks with

gressional inquiries were set'
up yesterday into radio-TV

man of both the House Legisla
tive Oversight subcommittee and
its parent Commerce Committee.

Harris said the subcommittee

LIMA, Peru (/P) Forty per

at least 200 injured by an earth
quake lasting 50 seconds and felt
in three countries, radio reports
from the scene said.

The quake shook areas of Peru,
Bolivia and Chile
The reports from Arequipa, in
southern Peru, said the suburbs
of Tingo. Tiabaya and Miraflores
were hardest hit.
Another minor quake was felt
'in the region at 4 p.m., the re
ports said, but there was no word
of additional casualties or darn
age.
The major quake occurred early
}yesterday. First reports from
the area were fragmentary. Land
slides knocked out communication
lines, hampering receipt of de
ttailed reports of casualties and
damage. But the quake was said
Ito have caused widespread de
struction.
The quake also was strong at
Cuzco and Ica in southeast Peru
and in nearby Bolivia. It was felt
as far south as Santiago, Chile,
but was not severe there.
Lima was shaken for 50 seconds

Health Officials
Warned About Flu
HARRISBURG UP) The State
Health Department, noting re
ports of an outbreak in Ohio,
yesterday alerted public health
officials in Pennsylvania to be on
the lookout for widespread cases
of Asian influenza.
' Dr. William D. Schrack, chief
of the department's Communica
ble Disease Control Division, said
the agency has not received any
reports of Asian flu cases since
the new year began.
Schrack added that an un
known virus called "Q

has stricken thousands in Los An

forces his agency into unfair ap
plication of it.
A subcommittee headed by
Rep. John Bell Williams (D.-
Miss.) will conduct the inquiry
into what effect the switch
over to jets is having on air
safety, service and scheduling.
"I regard this as one of the
committee's most important
tasks," Harris said.
He indicated the committee has
received complaints that airlines
are cutting corners in training
personnel and providing mainte
nance in order to get jets into
service. No date was set for the
investigation.

Committee to Study
School Finances
HARRISBURG UP) Gov. David L. Lawrence yesterday
ordered creation of a special committee to make a study_ of
school financial problems in Pennsylvania and report its
recommendations to the 1961 Legislature.
The action dimmed prospects of increasing state aid to
schools during the
.1960 session.
Conceivably, however, the law
makeis could go ahead on such a
plan if at the same time they in
crease taxes to pay for it
`lt is our hope and our intention
to make this review one of the
most intensive and far-reaching
ever conducted in Pennsylvania
or, for that matter, in any state
in the nation," said the governor
He made the statement to Re
publican and Democratic legis
lative leaders called together to
consider an agenda for the 1960
session.
Under a new constitutional
amendment, the current session
is limited to revenue and appro
priations measures, plus constitu
tional amendments, legislative in
vestigations and Senate action on
gubernatorial appointees.
A ground rules committee set
up to examine the score of what
can be acted upon in the 196 P ses
sion said the constitutional limi
tation was rather severe.
It ordered the Legislative Ref
erence Bureau to draft a set of
rules for the House and Senate
to allow screening of all bills be
fore they are printed.
The procedure would rule out
legislation considered unconstitu
tional within the limits set up for
session in even-numbered years.
An example cited was a pro
posal by Philadelphia Demo
crats to legalize bingo games in
Pennsylvania. The governor.
when asked whether he con
sidered bingo as a form of gam
siling, replied:
"I have no set conviction on it."
The legislative ground rules
committee plans another meeting
Jan. 19. On the following day, the
governor will again meet with
GOP and Democratic leaders on
an agenda for the 1960 session.

Finance Boss
PARIS (JP)---President Charles
de Gaulle dropped Antoine Pinay
as finance minister yesterday
rather than let him exercise a
veto over Gaullist economic
policy.
A conservative who revived an
ailing French economy, Pinay had
quarreled with Premier Michel
Debre and some of his ministers,
insisting they were swinging to
ward the left the economic policy
;Pinay founded.
In Pinay's stead, de Gaulle
named Wilfried S. Baumgartner,
57, governor of the Bank of
I France and a financial wizard in
his own right. Baumgartner's fi
nancial orthodoxy equals Pinav's,
but he is considered somewhat
,more
The switch followed days of po
litical suspence which wobbled
the stock market as vain efforts
were made to have Pinay patch
his quarrel with Debre and the
Cabinet's Gaullists.
