Democrats Push House
Committee For Action On
Housing Legislation
WASHINGTON, UPi — Speaker
Sam Rayburn said he intends to
get a House vote on a $2,100,000,
000 housing bill now resting in a
Rules Committee pigeonhole.
The bill calls for heavier hous
ing spending than President Eis
enhower recommended, and a
coalition of Republicans and
southern Democrats has kept the
measure bottled up in the Rules
Committee.
Democratic leaders regard hous
ing as an issue on which they
might well win a test with Eisen
hower, and are eager to get the
bill to a vote.
Rayburn told a news conference
“We are willing to wait a reason
| able time,” but added that if
! necessary there are at least three
* ways in which the House could get
j the legislation up for action de
spite the attitude of the Rules
) Committee.
Asked what he considered a
reasonable time, Rayburn said,
I “pretty soon.”
Mark Twain once said: “Few of
| us can stand prosperity — another
man’s I mean.”

Dr. Moench Tells On
Hungry Munchers
SALT LAKE CITY, GPI — Some
people go on eating binges in the
same way others go on alcoholic
sprees, a psychiatrist said Wed
nesday.
Some examples, said Dr. Louis
G. Moench, are people who don’t
get enough to eat during depres
sions, famine or in war prison
camps.
Dr. Moench told the Western
Hospital Association a man he
treated came to the United States
and became wealthy. But Dr.
Moench said the man ate himself
into a severe case of obesity and
diabetes because at every meal he
remembered his hungry child
hood in Europe.

Tulip Festival Colorful Affair
Ottawa, Canada's national capital, which each
Spring presents one of the most colorful floral dis
plays in North America, is anticipating that its
plus million-blossom Tulip Festival, from May 15
- to May 30. will be the most glorious in years.
Winter conditions have been ideal. Since Novem
ber. a million tulip bulbs planted along the capital’s
24 miles of scenic parkways have been protected
by a thick but fluffy-light blanket of snow, which
horticulturists say has provided the best wintering
conditions in years.
^ The tulips and hundreds of thousands of other
spring flowers — mainly crocus and daffodils — are
in 29 main flower beds throughout the city. Most
of the beds are set on slopes to provide sequence
and balance to achieve, eye-catching display.
Thousands of tourists come to Ottawa from all
• points in the United States and Canada to see the
breath-taking mass of color that spreads out before
* the Parliament Buildings and along the Rideau
Canal Parkway. There are some 200 varieties of
tulips in the displays. While picture-taking possi
; bilities are abundant, this year special attention
will be given amateur color photographers. Last
year. Holland's tulip queen, Leni Quant, presented
several thousand bulbs to the city to make a special
plot for photographers
| The new plot was created on Major Hilt Park.
behind Canadian National Railways’ famed Chateau
Laurier Hotel. The strategic location allows tourists
to photograph the tulips with several striking back
grounds. including the Chateau, the Parliament
Buildings and the beautiful Gatineau Hills across
