FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 30. 1955. Pinay Hits Plan Opposes Plea By Molotov For Pact Split UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. Sept. 29 (fP) —Foreign Minister Antoine Pihay of France to day rejected Russian sugges tions for an East-West accord based on dissolution of the U.S. troops from Europe. With Soviet Foreign Minister Molotov listening impassively as usual. Pinay told the UN Assem bly that France will .not recog nize the Communist East German regime. He called instead for a united Germany protected by the the Atlantic pact and the Paris agreements and subject to con trolled military limitations. Warns Communists Pinay warned the Communists to stop stirring up trouble in North Africa. He asked if they sought to open a new front there. He did not mention Algeria, which Pinay regards as a domes tic problem. He reported the agreement between France and Tunis and said France is working to constitute a Moroccan govern ment. The French minister. was em phatic in his views on the At lantic pact. He said that an au thentic easing- of tension in the “True' spirit of Geneva” bases co exist mce, for which the Russians are pleading, on “tolerance." Suggests Ike's Plan He said the countries could pro vide against surprise attack by using the aerial inspection plan S resented by President Eisen ower, by the territorial control posts suggested by Soviet Prem ier Bulganin, and by. a limited inspection system suggested by Prime Minister Eden. All of these could be supple mented, he said, by the system of financial controls proposed by French Premier Faure. Applying these measures simultaneously would lead on to the application of a general disarmament plan, Pinay said. Pinay urged an early solution of the question of new members for the UN. He said Italy should be among the first to be admitted. Truck Driver Finds $42,000 in Purse At Highway's Side DETROIT, Sept. 29 (/P)—Truck driver Vearl Valentine is a philo sophical man. He has to be after what he’s just been through. He confided to friends yester day that last Tuesday he found a brown purse lying along the road on U.S. 12 near Ann Arbor. He halted his truck and picked it qp. Inside he found $42,800 in large bills neatly tied with rubber bands. Before he could recover from the shock, a well dressed woman about 40 halted her ex pensive automobile near where he was standing and “demanded her money.” After identifying the amount and giving a plausible explana tion of how the bundle of bills had fallen from her car minutes before, Valentine was convinced sh was the owner. She accepted the purse and drove off with hardly a “thank you” much less a reward. “Routine,” sighed Valentine, a truck driver for 37 years. Years ago, he explained, he found a Wallet containing $2OO in a roadside restaurant in Altoona, Pa. He turned it over to the man agement and the wallet got back to the rightful owner.

Israeli attacks in the Gaza area last spring convinced Egyptian army officers they were not prepared to meet the threat of large scale war, said the informant, who declined to be identified by name Appeals to the United Nations to curb Israel brought little re sponse, he said, and Egyptian military -leaders put heavy pres sure on Premier Gamal Abdel Nasser to find heavy armament.' “The first nation we applied to for arms was the United States,” the source declared. “We even sent a military mission to the States but we could not get the armaments we needed.” When Czechoslovakia offered to supply arms in return for Egyp tian cotton, he said, Egypt had no alternative. In London today the British Foreign Office said it has ordered Ambassador Sir Humphrey Tre velyan to inform Nasser of the “grave view” Britain takes of Egypt’s intention to buy arms from behind the Iron Curtain. A spokesman said the British envoy was instructed to warn the Egyptian Premier of the dangers of starting an arms race in the Middle East. British intervention in Cairo is the third of a series of steps tak en by that country and the United States in the 48 hours since Egypt’s disclosure it was making an arms deal with Czechoslo vakia.

Its students, teachers and classrooms are the true wealth and basis of any society,” the governor told more than 600 Pennsylvania edu cators gathered for the 35th an nual Education Congress.

PENNSYLVANIA Survey Made For Turnpike Improvements HARRISBURG, Sept. 29 (JP) The Pennsylvania Turnpike Com mission is conducting an exten sive • survey . covering the cost, construction and success of metal center strip barriers with a view toward extending their length along the superhighway. Gov. Leader said today he hopes to have the completed re port soon.” Commission officials were unable to estimate when it might be finished. The governor disclosed that several months ago, in conference with some of the commissioners and commission engineers, “the possibility of extending medial barriers” was considered. “The commission and I are in agreement that they extend the barrier as finances permit,” he added. “Everyone recognizes the vir tue of medial barriers —we al ready have them along most curves,” the governor said. He indicated the report he lisked for will outline how many miles of barriers the commission can afford to- build, where it will be built and when. None of the three commission ers was in the Harrisburg office 'today for comment on the survey. But another Turnpike employe said the report has been under study for some time. Economic, To Be Unchanged --- Nixon WASHINGTON, Sept. 29 (JP)— Vice President Nixon said today after'presiding over a meeting of the National Security Council that no changes in foreign or eco nomic policy “are needed or con templated in the near future.” Nixon talked with reporters after a 2%-hour White House meeting of the council, the gov ernment’s highest agency for military and economic policy planning. He stressed that only President Eisenhower can make decisions on matters discussed in the coun cil which, like the Cabinet, is purely an advisory body. Nixon said his role as presid ing officer in Eisenhower’s ab sence is primarily to see that items up for discussion are han dled effectively and efficiently. Today’s council meeting, he said, was arranged before the President suffered a heart attack last Saturday and its business was to discuss things which would have been taken up "regardless of the occurrence at Denver.” Janet Rips Mexico; Deaths Reach 350 MEXICO CITY, Sept. 29 (A 1 ) —Hurricane Janet, the season’s most vicious tropical storm, is breaking up in the Mexican mountains af ter taking a toll of 350 to 400 lives.

Reports Cease Reports from the village of 1,500 ceased abruptly at 1 p.m. when the weather station was closed. because of rising water ana a 60-mile-an-hour wind.

Rains to Occur The New Orleans advisory warned that torrential rains will occur in the mountains from Veracruz to Ciudad Victoria, 135 miles northwest of Tampico and nearly 400 miles northwest of Veracruz.

JUdson 6-5300 Ike's Infirmity Will Not Alter Party Policy STONEWALL, Tex., Sept. 29 (yP) Democratic congressional chieftains today promised they will not make political hay of President Eisenhower’s illness in the session starting in January. But Senate Majority Leader Lyndon B. Johnson and House Speaker Sam Rayburn firmly pledged themselves to a congres sional program which they hope will put a Democrat in the White House next year. Adlai Stevenson, titular head of the party, sat nearby on the shady lawn of Johnson’s ranch home and nodded approval as Johnson and Rayburn talked to reporters. No Strategy All three Democratic leaders asserted there was no political significance in the overnight visit with Johnson. All three said they had not met to plot any strategy to take advantage of the Presi dent’s illness. Johnson especially underlined his sympathy with the President. The Texas lawmaker suffered- a similar heart attack in July. Trim and Confident Trim and tanned, he looked fit today and he was confident he would be able to take over the active Senate leadership in Janu ary. This depends finally on what the doctors say about his condi tion at the time. Johnson also made it clear that Stevenson’s visit was in no sense a personal political endorsement of Stevenson. Without calling any names, Johnson said that ail those who had been mentioned as Democratic presidential pos sibilities were “good men.” North Denver Bank Robbed of $4,400 DENVER, Sept. 29 </P) The North Denver Bank was robbed |of $4,400 today while customers |in the lobby watched the World Series on television.
