Three nephews of the missing man watched intently as the res- cuers cut through huge slabs of concrete and twisted steel in their search for Joseph Lombardi, 55. The relatives were Louis and John/| Lombardi and Louis Leone. The floor gave way while con- crete was being poured. The col- lapse injured 51 workers, 23 of whom were hospitalized. More than 100 workers scram- bled for their lives as concrete, steel and wood plunged 22 feet to the street-level floor of the project _ being built at Columbus Circle. “Something started to give,” said one worker. “Then there was a terrible noise. It. was like an ‘earthquake. I just went down.” Another worker said it was like a “terrific explosion—like a big - boiler exploding.” “T ran and ran like a mad deg trying to get up those boards,” said still another. “I thought I'd never get out.” The 35-million-dollar proje ct, started a year ago, is half com- pleted. A 22-story office building being built as part of the project was unaffected by the cave-in of the 180-by-180 foot floor section. Just what caused the collapse remained a mystery. Preliminary investigation showed no break or weakening in the structural steel framework. _Builders employed on the project} in the | 4g' were “of the highest type construction business,” Mayor Robert F. Wagner said. ; The floor was supported by wooden and steel jacks.

Union President Walter.P. Reuther said a solid vote the best insurance against - The strike votes were ordered, he said, because of a 0. Negotiations are expected to become more intense when they resume tomor- row between the UAW and Ford. General Motors and the union resume next Mon- day after a week-long lay- off. “Trejoin the Ford talks and take a more active role in the sessions now that they are nearing the showdown stage. The Ford-UAW contract, cover- ing 140,000 workers, expires June 1. General Motors’ pact with the union, covering 325,000 employes, runs until June 7 because of a union delay in filing contract terminatidh notice. It had been scheduled to expire May 29. The calls for strike votes went out from separate meetings yes- terday of the UAW’s national Ford and General Motors coun- clls, These are made up of dele- gates from 119 General Motors plants and 83 Ford plants and parts depots. Each delegate represents about 1,000 workers on the average. Local unions will conduct the strike votes.

Nicholas East of City Nicholas E. Gotch, 36, of 38 Dela- ware Dr., died last night in St. Joseph Mercy Hospital of injuries suffered in a 2-car collision Sun- day that injured six others, includ- ing two children, Gotch’s death brings the Oakland County atito accident toll to 11 for this year. Gotch suffered q broken pelvis and head injuries when his car collided with one being driven by Mrs, Ann Burgess, 39, of Roch. ester, at Adams road and East South Boulevard,’ about three miles east gt Pontiac. Mrs. Burgess suffered only minor injuries but two of her children, William, 9, and Carol, 4, were hospitalized with a broken arm and leg respectively. Another child, Gail, was treated for shock and senger, Paul Badger, 40, 1018 Bos- ton St., was treated for a cut hand. Hospital authorities said Gotch died at about 9:30. Gotch Dies Lad, 5, Follows Bus tor Home— Wrong Direction Resourcefulness is not a virtue that needs cultivation in 5-year- old Wayne Walli, but his sense of direction could use an overhauling. The son of Mr. and Mrs, Simon Walli of 3401 26 Mile Road missed the school bus when it left Wood- ward Elementary School in Roch- ester at 3:15 p.m. yesterday, What could be simpler than following that big yellow school bus home? This logical maneuver sent the youngster off in a southwestern direction, while his parents at home northeast of Rochester spent an anxious three hours, The slippery bus gave him a wrong start. It headed west to cir- cle the school afid begin its de- livery. At 6:30 p.m. with Romeo State Police troopers and Roch- ester police searching the area, George Cage, 3840 Pontiac Rd., saw a small até tredging nam -Pontiae-Road, Romeo Trooper Gordon Hurley and Zane Gray answered Cage's call, and returned the youngster home. A classmate of Wayne's had missed the bus too. He just re- turned to the classroom and _ hol- lered for help! Committee Kills ‘Any Deer’ Bill LANSING (# — The House Con- servation Committee today killed a bill extending the authority of the Consetvation Commission to set special “‘any deer’ seasons. The committee’s action appar- ently would end chances for House passage of the bill, already ap- proved by the Senate. The bill to extend the commis- sion’s discretionary power over the deer herd for another two years was a hotly-disputed issue among sportsmen and conservationists. The legislature gave the com- pas-| mission discretionary power three years-ago, but it expires this year. Committee members defeated the bill by a 9-6 vote after a heated half hour discussion. President Asks Soviet Premier to Big-4 Parley Eden, Faure Also Invite Bulganin; Time, Place Not Disclosed MOSCOW (# — President Eisenhower today invited Soyiet Premier Bulganin to meet him, British Prime Minister Eden and French 1 Premier Faure for an infor- mal discussion of world problems. Similar invita- tions were delivered by France and Britain from their heads of government. U. S. Charge d’Affaires Walter W. Walmsley deliv- ered the invitation at the Soviet Foreign Ministry. Walmsley declined to disclose contents of the note. The time and place suggested are not yet dis- closed to Mos¢ow. When. the invitation arrived, Premier Bulganin was en route to Warsaw by airplane with For- eign Minister V, M. Molotov, They will attend the Warsaw conference, which is expected to set up an Eastern NATO of Rus- sia and its East Eangeen Com- munist allies. Consequently, there was no im- mediate Soviet reaction to the in- vitation, but it is believed that it will certainly be accepted. Bulganin has expressed re- peatedly his desire for talks with Eisenhower, Eden and Faure. He repeated this wish last night in a conversation with an Associated Press correspondent ‘at a Moscow dinner party. Just what happens from here on is the question. The Western bloc and Western European Union have been formed. As a counterweight Bulganin and Molotov are master- minding a parley beginning in armed Eastern bloc under the command of a Russian marshal. Meantime, Soviet officials are claiming parity and even superi- ority over the United States in hydrogen weapons, However, even the Moscow cen- sor will permit correspondents to say that the Russians are probably whistling in the dark.on this ques- tion.

In that order, the firms are: Eli tories, Marietta, Pa! Pitman- More, Zionville, ‘Jnd., and Sharpe and Dohme, Philadelphia.

But the crowds watched in amazement on Aug. 17, 1807, when the Clermont chugged up the Hudson River from New York to Albany. It took 32 hours, at about five miles an hour. The Clermont was not the first steamboat ever made. John Fitch built one in 1787. But it made the first successful i a an event which revolutionized travel. Fulton was born in 1765 on a farm near Lancaster, Pa. He was often punished by his teacher for daydreaming, but he really was working on original ideas for inventions. As a boy, he invented house- hold utensils for his mother, a lead pencil and skyrockets. A British prisoner taught him to draw, and when Robert was only 17 he painted portraits. But he soon gave up this career to spend all his time inventing. An important invention—which no one was inter- ested in at the time—was a workable submarine with torpedoes. He died in 1815. Fulton’s motto was: “If you see a need, find out how to supply it.” Color the drawing of the Clermont so you will remember this important event. Tomorrow: tes Miracle of Kitty Hawk.

OF CIRCULATIONS TUESDAY, MAY 10, 1955 New Debt Free City Hall Result of Wise Planning < ‘Pontiac this week is taking a long step forward municipally speaking. . On Monday with all departments safely moved from the old building, our municipal government took over its new liome, the beautifully designed and equipped $1,200,000 City Hall. For’the first time tonight our seven member: ea City. Commission will hold a regular meeting » in the impressive commis- _ sion chamber. Considerable work re- -, stone structure at Parke, WILLMAN Pike and Hill Streets. But already it is possible to visualize how imposing the building will be whe landscaping is completed. The hill top site affords an excellent setting for the new City _ Hall which dominates the near East Side skyline. There, thanks to the vision of former City Manager Bean, City Manager Willman and succeeding city commissions, a dream of civic progress has materialized. . x « * . That dream was more than of a mod- ern city hall that would serve the needs of this growing automotive center. It was of such a building paid for before occupancy with funds set aside over the years for that purpose. - - That is the kind of new city hall we have. The credit belongs to those men who had the foresight and capacity for gement to give the city this ai Shrewd Japanese Expect Little Trade From China Economically depressed Japan nat- urally looks longingly toward Red China in the hope of finding new trade oppor- tunities there. Like the United Kingdom, Japan has to export its finished goods to live. De- spite its huge population two facts pre- vent Red China from being a rich market for Japan. - * * * One of these is the Chinese people’s lack of buying power. The other is the unlikelihood that Red China’s govern- _ment willingly will do anything to help tive she says,.“‘It was a vicious snapper.” kind are the most edible,Other @ former enemy. At the moment Red China's economy is closely geared to that: of Soviet Russia. Another im- portant and obstinate fact is that China still couldn’t get along without the support that is com- ing from Moscow. It wouldn’t be reasonable to expect that this situation will be changed by the Mao Tze-tung regime to accom- modate Japan. : * * * . Before the war Jdpan’s trade with China amounted to only a fraction of her dealings. with the United States. It is not so surprising, therefore, that the current discussions have revealed noth- ing promising Japan a trade bonanza in China. _ Safety Tests for Cars For thé first time since the annual safety tests were inaugurated four years ago, it is hoped to check 20,000 cars here this week. This is the goal announced by the Safety Committee of Pontiac’s Chamber _ of Commerce. As in former years the i ty el B mains to be done on the grounds of the three story — ot x i more special lanes have been set aside - than in former years. These are located on Johnson Ave. near Elizab&h Lake Road, Hillside Drive at Lincoln Junior — High and East Boulevard near Whitte- ‘more. Others are Pike at the City’s Parking lot and on West Huron at the Court House. * * * _ We urge all motorists of the area to co-operate in this life- saving, accident - preventing pro- gram. Drivers whose cars are in perfect operating condition are less likely to figure in accidents. Do your part and make sure your brakes, lights, windshield wipers, etc., _ are functioning properly by stopping at one of these free checkup lanes. National Hospital Week National Hospital Week, May 8 to 14, offers a fine opportunity to recall the great progress these institutions have made in the last 50 years. Back in 1873 the Nation could boast only 178 hospitals with a total capacity of 34,000 beds. Now the country is for- tunate in having 7,000 hospitals with a total of 1,500,000 beds. x * * Much more impressive than these growth figures is the prog- ress made in the treatment and care of patients. Thanks - to medical advances and better equipment the average patient’s hdspitalstay has. been reduced from 14 days in 1935 to 9 days now. _ Since the turn of the century each stride forward in technological pro- cedures and medical science has in- - creased the people’s demand for hospital care. As a result these once feared in- stitutions have come to be relied on increasingly as community health cen- ters. x *® * _ Mayor Donatpson’s proclamation and observarice of. the week at Pontiac Gen- eral anfi St. Joseph Mercy Hospitals are timely salutes to hospital staffs. Society indeed owes a debt of grati- tude to the nurses, orderlies, techni- cians and other workers wha have done go much to raise the standards of hos- pital care.

Col. Jay Vessels of the U.S. Air Force is my first candidate, Jay never piloted a plane. But a dozen years or so ago he ruled the skies over Tunisia with his typewriter just as the British navy shortly before had bossed the Mediterranean with a couple of cruisers, a few destroyers and an agile battery of mimeograph ma- chines, s * * plies. But although this skinny, black-eyed little former doughboy was frightened by any sergeant he woud go in and bawl out any general to get what he felt was needed to do his job. * * * And the man knew what his job was. It was to tell the combat story of the close-up combat air- men. If they ever give a medal for morale in the Air Force, the first one should go to Lt. Col. Jay Vessels. The last I heard from Jay he was down in Texas running a place called ‘‘No Horse Ranch.” But I'm Ordinarily a newspapermaa-gees__sure that whenever a plane throbs into the public relations busine’s overhead he looks up and remem- for financial reasons, such as the desire to earn enough money to send his sons through college.

He rose from lieutenant to lieutenant colonel but never lost his fear of sergeants. I don’t know what gave him that sense of rank claustrophobia, but a guy with three stripes always frightened him more than a guy with three stars. * LJ s He was a guerrilla operator and he operated a guerrilla press camp. As a public relations offi- cer, he ran certainly the most un- orthodox press camp of the war. Jay lost his heart at the start to the P40 pilots, guys who fought the better equipped German fliers to a draw with a slower, low- altitude but heavier armored plane. His heroes at that time were Col, Phil: Cochran and Capt. Levi Chase of New York. Both were men of high courage, both were great leaders, Capt. Chase was also a great teacher, It was his stern duty to teach his high- spirited pilots that in terms of speed and climb they were one plane behind the Germans, but by using the P40 within its limits they could compete with the enemy. * * * the German finally made a mis- take he used his firepower to knock him from. the sky.

Crain Answers Sundquist’s Letter on Tax In answer to Carl'T. Sund- quist’s letter of April 30. He doesn't think: $378 is high taxes for a home with no city utilities. I failed to see how much your taxes are or that you are willing to: pay $378 per year. If you were assessed anywhere near that amount, we would ail see a number of letters from Mr. Sundquist. My wife said nothing in regard to paying our city upkeep, police- men or firemen. I am the first to agree as to their pay. We only want our experience to be a lesson to others. We didn't realize such taxes existed and have found no one in the city of Pontiac paying such an exhorbi- tant tax, have you? Or in Wafer- ford or Bloomfield, for a house of comparable size and valuation. They are paying only about one- third of what they are assessing my home. What's the difference in 10 mills or 50 mills if the city raises the assessed valuation to offset the mill?

PARIS — They keep talking here about a four-power conference “at the summit.” But, it may be asked, “Where is the summit, or who is the summit in Soviet Russia?”’ For the conversation at the ses- sions of the foreign ministers is of the people of Soviet Russia - could be made known, hence, three aimed at satisfying the British and . French desires to have some kind of conference with the Commu- nists. While nobody knows exactly what can be accomplished, if any- thing, the pressure from public opinion seems to be that some sort of talk should be held. The latest suggestion being bandied about is that it isn’t nec. essary to have an agenda or program er list of items to dis- cuss, and it isn’t necessary to make binding decisions, either. All this is being offered as a means of making it easier for President Elsenhower to say “yes.” Among the American officials here there is a disposition to ask questions such as, “Who is the summit in Soviet Russia."’ All the information available from Mos- cow is that nobody has really taken Stalin’s place and that a sort of committee government ex- ists in the-Kremlin. It is uncertain, therefore, what good there is in talking to someone who cannot commit anyone else to the agree- ments he might make or the view- points he might express. President Eisenhower referred in a recent press conference to the doubt that exists in the American government concern- ing the status of the men high up in the Seviet regime. — It is not certain, for instance, that Bulganin or Khrushchev rep- resent the “summit.” The truth is that there never has been any election in which the free choice Case Records of a Psychologist Many Worthwhile Projects Can Occupy Wife With Too Much Time on Her Hands Edith has a problem common to millions of housewives, so scrapbook this case record.

It is unfortunate that so many people have overlooked this basic weakness and are crying out for a conference with the Soviets “at the summit” without realizing that merely to wish for peace does not bring peace and that a four-power conference is not a magic device that can bring understanding where there has been none before. The opportunities both “at ‘the summit” and at levels very near the summit have been numerous ever since 1945. The best information available here is that the Soviet regime de- sires something to bolster its pres- tige internally. and to remove the worries that are growing up inside Soviet Russia about tension in the atomic world. At the same time, the Soviet of- ficials are known not to be in any mood to make important conces- sions. They have been accumulat- ; ing trump cards such as their ten- _ year refusal to sign a peace treaty with Austria and the imprisonment of Americans the nationals of other countries’ held for many years, plus the resort to such un- lawful measures as the blockade by excessive taxation of trucks go- ing from West Germany to Berlin.

Scholz had been held since Feb. 15 in Heu of $25,000 bail The re- lease order was signed by General |- Sessions Judge Jonah Goldstein. Bail was cancelled with the un- derstanding that Scholz could be called at any time for questioning in the Jan. 27 Rubinstein murder. Scholz then was taken to a cell in Queens for arraignment there. Police said they faund an arsenal, including a machine gun, in his home at Whitestone, Queens. “At one time, authorities de- scribed Scholz as qa “very impor- tant witness” in the murder of the multimillionaire playboy and World War II draft dodger who was strangled in a bedroom of his 5th Avenue mansion. — Police said Scholz told them that he and another man had planned several years ago to kidnap Rubin- stein for ransom, but that the plot never developed into action.

Most of these troubles can not ‘be directly laid to foreign com-. petition but more often are blamed on the industry’s march South, the drop in military demand, anti- quated plants, new synthetic fibers. But both management and labor feel the industry is too shaky to withstand assault from the grow- ing industries of Japan, India and On the other hand, government figures showed overall textile pro- . duction last month was 7 per cent ruary sages up 5 per cent from a year ago and synthetics were up 38 per cent, Senate testimony showed that cotton imports added up to only one-half of 1 per cent of U.S. production. The carpet industry is troubled by other problems — inefficient plants, high costs, invasion ‘of its markets by other floor-coverings. Imports were only about 6 per cent of U. S. production last year | but domestic earnings uma? below 2 per cent. ‘“‘They’ve taken the profit edge,’’ said one manu- facturer. * *° There's a special irony in the American lace-making industry which, centered largely around Rhode Island, employs about 10,- 000 and does about 50 million dol- lars a year. The industry was born here as the result of a tariff bar- rier being removed. The machines até made only in England, There were just a hand- ful in this country untit 1909, Then, we desperately needed mosquito netting to fight malaria; we tem- porarily repealed the 45 per cent tariff on lace machines, Thus, the craft became a domestic industry. Lace-making demands highly skilled operators called “twist- hands.” In this country they av- erage $3 an hour. Abroad, they earn 40 to' 60 cents an hour. French, German, Swiss, British and other European lace now is reaching the U, S. in volume ap- proaching .a million dollars a month. - The jewelry business has some striking examples of foreign un- der-selling.

Pontiac measures up with the finest on every count. It’s a simple matter of fact that you can buy a big, powerful Pontiac for less than many models of the lowest-priced cars and much less than stripped economy models of higher-priced makes! That’s why buyers from both ends of the price scale are switching to Pontiac in record-breaking numbers—why so many former high-price buyers are learning that to pay more than Pontiac’s modest price is sheer extravagance—why former lowest-priced buyers are now enjoying big-car pride and pleasure. All this is very easy to prove with a close inspection of Pontiac’s luxury and quality and a few miles commanding its mighty 200-horsepower Strato- Streak V-8.

By DR. CHARLES 8. CAMERON Medical and Scientific Director, American Cancer Society NEW YORK (INS)—Human life starts from a single cell. It is gen- | erally believed too that the second greatest destroyer of life, cancer,’ has its origins in one cell. The terrible problem facing medicine today is that cancer does not stay within a single cell, er a single tissue. It's a lawless wanderer that reams widely, spreading its evil consequences to other parts of the body. Still, the statement can be made that cancér is curable. This won- | derful hope exists today because the actiti is learning | general’ practitionsr © ne | residents who didn't know a bit-| to diagnose cancer earlier; because the surgeon has discovered better means of removing growths from nearly every part of the body; be- cause the radiologist has develop- ed vastly more powerful and effec- tive X-rays ‘In etiactial, though, there — been little change in the fact that cancep can be cured only if it is removed before the cells start their fatal journeying. One out of every four who has cancer is being saved today. But the other three die.

The second method of cure is radiation. This destroys the can- cer cells by bombarding them with X-rays. Radium too is frequently used when the cancer is on’or near the surface of the skin or inside one of the body cavities which can New ways of employing more powerful X-rays have come into vogue.
