Dulles will attend a meeting of the 15 nation North Atlantic Treaty Council and also confer with various foreign ministers on the Palestine crisis, Russian pol icy, Cyprus and other current problems. Dulles used the phrase "some thing more than a military Alli ance' in describing one of the primary purposes of the NATO meeting-.

"If we want that happier condi • tion to continue," Dulles declared 'in , a departure statement, "we must continue the policies which brought it about. "But the North Atlantic Com munity is held together by senti ment far more profound than far, and by objectives far more fund amental than military strength.

Eisenhower likely will . peg his fall campaign on five or six television speeches_ The Republicans fought out a factional battle in the District of Columbia ballot—the first sanc tioned by Congress in more than 20. years.

Raskob, 1928 Democratic national chairman who gave, and raised, money for the Al Smith presidential cam paign.

After the booing died away, Spivak asked Butler about Demo cratic contributions from Cornel ius Whitney and the governor of New York. He presumably meant the present governor, Averell Har riman. Butler said- he would like to be confronted with evidence of any contributions matching those the Republicans get.

The UN secretary general cancelled plans to fly to Rome to. morrow and will return to Damascus for another round of talks with Syrian officials Informed sources said he will make one more try for an un conditional cease-fire agreement between Israel and Syria, Jordan and Lebanon. Egypt and Israel already have agreed to a cease fire along their frontier. But informed sources said Syria has demanded that any new accord include an Israeli pledge not to resume work on plans for diverting the Jordan waters for power and irriga tion projects. The sources said Israel refused to accept the demand. The Israelis maintain the Jordan workings would be within Israeli territory and therefore have nothing to do with border questions. Israel and her Arab neighbors have been feuding over the Jor dan waters for years. Syria and Jordan, backed by the other Arab nations, have said they would consider any attempt by Israel to carry out her projects as aggres sion against their rights and in terests. Despite this setback. Ham marskjold was able to report a fresh success. The UN truce supervision or ganization announced both Israel and Egypt have approved the establishment of UN observation posts and mobile patrols on the troubled border around the Gaza strip. 6th 4 DAYS LEFT AnniversarylN THIS BIG CELEBRATION SALE OPEN EVERY Typical Bargains: NIGHT CLOCKS-4.ring wound 'TIL 9 and electric, save 25%.
