If Oregons citizens, including those in Marion County, don't get
the lead out of their handkerchiefs this state may soon be hope

Anthritjr on Ragweed
This is the word brought to
Salem late last week by Oren
C. Durham of Chicago, one of
the recognized authorities on
ragweed. He is secretary of the
ragweed has gained a good start
nothing that legislatures, farm
ers or doctors can do will kill off
the weed. And most states in
the east are in this predicament
already."
Sinuses Irritated
The sinus cavities of something
like 4,000,000 Americans are irri
tated by ragweed pollen each
summer. Many of these, at least
those who can afford it, cross
continents and oceans to avoid
their annual blow by blow and
wheeze by wheeze battle with
the weed.

Soviet Closing
A.Gap,Defense
Official Says
QUANTICO. Va. OB The nation's
military high command was given
disturbing word Saturday that
Soviet Russia is moving closer to
the United States in the great
arms race of the atomic age.
Donald A. Quarles, assistant
secretary f defense for research,
made this view clear in addressing
the defense chiefs at their annual
meeting here when he said Amer
ica's weapons technology position
today is "less favorable than it
was a year ago."
. Quarles spoke at a morning busi
ness session of the four-day con
ference shortly before the arrival
at Quantico of President .Eisen
hower. The commander - in - chief
spoke briefly and informally at a
luncheon of the conferees, but
what he talked about was not dis
closed. The conference of 160 defense
aad service secretaries and mili
tary commanders was called for
discussion of routine management
and strategy matters.
Quarles said that in the 11

STOCKHOLM, Sweden UB A
capacity crowd of some 23,500 per
sons jammed Stockholm's Olympic
Stadium Sunday night to hear
American evangelist Billy Graham.
About 200 followed ills appeal at
the end of the sermon to "turn to
God."
The meeting followed the usual
pattern, with music by brass bands
and choirs. Cliff Barrows, song
leader of Graham's group, conduct
ed one hymn in Swedish to the
delight of the audience.
The Graham party is scheduled
te leave Monday for one-day stops
at Copenhagen. Amsterdam. Dus
seldorf and Berlin before going to
Paris.
The young evangelist has re
ceived mixed reaction in Stock
holm, where newspapers appeared
somehwat confused by his dra
matic style of preaching.
"Billy came, saw bufc failed to
conquer," the afternoon paper Af
tonbladet said.
