In reply to news conference ques- tions Tuesday Wilson said that ‘‘I sometimes feel the world is_mak- | ing progress” toward peace. But he also commented that “I don’t think we can judge by any one little thing’? whieh may occur from time to time. Wilson said’ that “if anyone seriously thinks of disarmament and of trying to cool the world off a little bit” he would favor it.” Wilson was asked whether he was alarmed about the latest shooting incident between United States Air Force fighters and Communist planes off Korea, American planes shot down two Communist fighters Tuesday and probably destroyed a third. “I wouldn’t say ‘alarmed,’ ” Wilson answered. “T think it was just an isolated incident.” Wilson gave a broad hint that he has just about decided on a new Army chief of staff and will name him within the next . two months.

Many of its provisions were similar to previous Soviet pro- | posals. The bid for the evacuation of foreign troops from Germany was contained in the first dec- laration, an eight-point general peace plan. It called on the U.N. Assembly | to declare that ‘‘a weakening of | international tension can be achieved by the immediate evac- | uation of troops of the Big Four powers from German territory, leaving limited contingents and police forces.” ° The Russians said these remain- ing contingents should be allowed to stay “pending the conclusion of an agreement on their full withdrawal.” The second declaration, contain- ing specific disarmament pro- |posals, listed the following three points as necessary to ‘‘free hu- manity from the threat of a new destructive war" 1. Full crohibition of the ‘use and production of nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction and the diversion of this potential energy to peaceful uses. 2. Substantial reduction of all arms. 3.

City Manager Walter K. Willman said it would cost $10,000 to put one coat of liquid chloride on the ap-/ proximately 100 miles of dust-producing streets. Two and possibly three coats will be needed each summer, he said. Cost of the yearly undertaking ' will be paid from city funds. This is the first time in Pontiac history a t-coating program has been established on such a basis. Formerly, if residents on dirt | streets wanted a dust-preventa- tive coating put on, they had to collect the necessary money themselves, Upon receipt of the money, the city would prepare the streets ond) put on the chloride. “This has not been a — tory solution of the ‘over-all situa- tion and has not really been com- pletely satisfactory to the persons | who have paid for the chloride,” Willman said. “The nuisance can often arise | their property but not abutting \ it,” he explained. | May Starg Next Week Willman said it would take about 10 days to coat the 100 miles, add- ing that he hoped to get the work) started nex? week.

M. a ie ee THE PONTIAC PRESS, ¢ $ e Py Claims Soviets Hate Iron Rule Anti-Red Feeling Runs Deeper in Russia Than in U.S., Noble Says BOSTON (INS) A former Russian slave labor camp inmate | says anti-Communist feeling is stronger in Russia than in the, United States. John H. Noble, 31, Detroit, held | prisoner behind the Iron Curtain for nine years, told delegates to the 19th Diocesan Congress of the | League of Catholic Women: “The people in Russia realize what the Communists do to a per- son. That’s why they hate commu- nism. People in the United States do not realize how dangerous com- munism is because they have never seen it in action." He said he was imprisoned by | the Russians in Dresden, Ger. | many, in 1945. He and his fami- | ly had been interned in Dresden by the Nazis at the outbreak ot World War II. From Dresden he was moved to the infamous Buchenwald concen- tration camp, then sent to a slave labor camp in Siberia. He was finally released last January in Berlin. Most of his knowledge of Com- munist methods, he said, came from fellow convicts who were mostly Russian political prisoners. “Because of the secret police, persons outside the labor camps are afraid to say anything. That’s why the prisoners know more of | what is going on in Russia than | the free citizens, Noble pointed out. Senator or Smith Believes Ike Wants to Retire WASHINGTON garet Chase Smith (R-Maine) said today she has the impression Pres- ident Eisenhower “prefers to re- tire after 1956." Cautioning Republicans against basing party strength solely upon the President's personal popular- ity, she said in remarks prepared for some 1,500 GOP workers at- tending the Republican Women’s National Conference “I'm not so sure that Dwight Eisenhower will seek re-election. My present impression is that he prefers to retire after 1956. 1 cer- tainly would not blame him if he does. But I hope with all my heart | that he doesn't.” * * 2 Mrs. Smith is the first prominent Republican to voice public doubt | that Eisenhower will seek a sec- ond term, The President has given | no sign of his intentions. Earlier in the conference, GOP National Chairman Leonard W. Hall repeated his asumption that Eisenhower would be nominated and re-elected. = s ca | - Mrs. Smith continued “We have been lucky to have | Dwight D. Eisenhower leading our . party. But we don't want. to push | that luck too far. “We don't want to put all our eggs in one basket—we don't want to lean too heavily upon the Eisen- hower popularity. “Instead, we must build up the popularity of our party as well. No one has said this more elo- quently than President Eisenhow- | er himself.” } Parking Mystery Baffles Louisville Businessmen LOUISVILLE, Ky.
