The Americans and British
were represented as feeling such
equipment would upset the bal
ance of power in the Middle East.
They were willing to supply
arms to Egypt but only to the
extent needed for internal polic
ing and defense from external
attack.
Egypt then notified Britain she
had accepted a Russian offer to
supply her wiLh arms.
Later, Premier Gamal Abdel
Nasser told a crowded meeting
in Cairo the arms would come
from Czechoslovakia, a Russian
satellite and Ijpme of the Skoda
munitions works.
He said the Western powers
declined to supply arms unless
Egypt agreed to conditions that
he said Egypt could not accept.
‘Will Never Attack’
‘We never will attack or
threaten anyone else, but the
Western powers have refused to
give us arms for defense," Nasser
sold.
Nasser did not elaborate on the
conditions.
In Washington. State Depart
ment officials said conditions of
fered Egypt were exactly the
same as those accepted by other
friendly governments.
Htufnbling Block
An American source said the
heavy type of weapons wanted
was the chief stumbling block.
This source said the Western
powers also felt they coufd not
spare some of the material re
quested by Egypt. There also was
disagreement on prices.
The statement by Dulles and
MacMillan said the United States
and Britain were in harmony on
a policy of avoiding “an arms
i ace which would inevitably in
crease the tensions in the area."
"They will continue, and hope
other governments will continue,
to be guided by these principles,"
they said.
Campaign Starts
With Real 'Bang'
NAMPA, Idaho (AP) — The
Ore-Ida Boy Scout fund rais
ing campaign started off with
a hang Tuesday.
An old fashioned coal range
blew up during u “kick-off”
breakfast, scattering coal and
cast iron all over the Kagles
hall.
But no one was Injured.
After things quieted down,
, members of the scout organ
ization took what was left of
the breakfast to a nearby res
I taurant, where It was cooked
and brought back to the hall.
] tion of t he dam would result In
higher power costs.
Authorized by I'tilt ties
He said the Coon bill was '
' "authorized by the private utili- !
I ties who have been trying for the
last. 10 years to end the Bonne
ville program" which he said was
j a program of cheap public power.
Coon asserted with the state- :
ment that at the rate of present
appropriations, the Pacific North
west would have to wait 27 years
for construction of John Day as
a federal project.
There were no sharp exchanges
between the two debaters as
there had been on the previous ]
. night. Nor were there any boos. 1
Booing by Republicans
Neuberger, speaking at a $5- j
a-plate Democratic fund-raising
dinner before the debate, said he
though the booing at Howl River
had been caused by Republicans.
"I was impressed by the differ
ence between their people and
| "Ur people. A Hood River Re
publican told me that the people
booing were not Hood River resi
dents. but ringers brought in
from Portland," he said.
The debate moves to Pendh-ton
Wednesday night.

Eugene, Oregon
Where does a Safeway
^ career begin?
In food retailing—as in most fields
— a man begins his career in a job
where he can get basic, first-hand
knowledge of how the business
operates. At Safeway, the best place
to gain this basic knowledge is in
a starting position as a Feud Clerk.
Q. What does a Food Clerk do?
A. Food Clerk jobs include a number of
varied and interesting duties. A clerk
learns to order, care for and inventory
hundreds of different food products. He
learns about the background of these
items and the techniques of displaying
them attractively. On the job and in
group sessions, he learns why things are
done as well as bow they are done. For
the man looking ahead to possible exec
utive advancement, this is a key step.
He's preparing himself thoroughly.
Q. How is the starting pay?
A. Starting pay for Food Clerks in this
area—$300 a month almost from the
beginning for a 40-48 hour week —
compares favorably with beginning jobs
in many other fields.
Q. Can a man move ahead quickly
in this field?
A. 1^ a man has the ability and desire to
get ahead, his chances for promotion are
good because food retailing is a fast
. growing field. In several years, after
succeeding in intermediate supervisory
jobs, he can look forward to a position
as Manager of a Safeway store—with a
salary potential of more than $12,000
a year. Or he may advance to other
Safeway managerial positions.
Considering these things, isn't a
career in this field worth thinking about
for the future ?
There's a career to look forward to
