In the third act Mlas Stevens' role calls for her to stumble and fall. While doing this she dislocated her right shoulder, but it quickly snapped back into place, and there was no interruption of the opera. At the end of the fourth and last act of the opera Carmen is stabbed and falls to the ground. The shoul der was dislocated a second time during this final part of the per formance. ' Thieves Net $290 in Raid Burglary netting $290, including about $55 in checks, from Fade's Market, 1244 State St., was report ed Saturday morning to police.

The modernization of the Russian army clearly indicates it is being fitted for offensive, atomic type warfare in areas with well developed bard road systems. Rus sia has mostly dirt roads. "4. Despite new emphasis on bombers, Jet fighters and atomic weapons, the Kremlin invested bil lions of dollars to convert the Rus sian army into a first rate land fighting force." The story, published In the Tri bune's Sunday editions, said the "battle order of the Red army con tinues to provide a total of 175 divisions." of which about 5 are tank and motorized divisions, of 5,000 to 13.000 men each, depend ing upon their function. A "military expert on Russia" was quoted aa telling Tribune re porter Lloyd Norman: "The most significant fact about the new Soviet army is that it is new and modern. It has the newest weapons and is a first rate fighting force very effective in mobility, fire power and the accuracy of iis fire 'Control.; And what'l very" Im portant, the new weapons are in the hands of troops, not just on the drawing boards."

He urged greater production from lands now being farmed, but uid no additional expansion is planned. He made a spirited appeal for elimination of waste, indolence and mismanagement in the pro gram that has put thousands of formerly untitled acres under the plow. The stocky Communist Party boss spoke before more than 1,000 cheering young virgin lands farm workers at the closing session of a two-day conference in the Krem lin on the grandiose scheme :or expanding Soviet crop acreage his awn brainchild. Khrushchev urged that the "hu man filth" bureaucracy be cleaned out from the virgin lands, largely east of the Urals. Attacking waste on state farms, he told the workers that on one state farm in the virgin land there were 355 persons employed and 51 of these were not produc tive. On another, he said, there were 2V) specialists and only 42 work ers ... so everything thev pro duce, they eat themselves." City Studies Plan To Put Alcohol In Water Supply DALLAS, Tex.

Separation of Stock, Grass Ih Soil Bank Plan Questioned WASHINGTON UP - Senators were asked Saturday how the gov ernment plans to keep cows and tber livestock out of the grass growing on soil bank acres. - T. E. Mollin of Denver, testify ing for the American National Cat tlemen's Assn., said: "Where there is lush grass and livestock in the same area they have a way of getting together whether or no." Witnesses for the dairy industry, just recovering from economic dis tress caused by an oversupply of butter, cheese and other products, expressed similar doubts. They appeared at a hearing of th Senate Agriculture Committee, which is considering th Eisenhower-Benson soil bank farm plan and numerous other proposals for lift ing farm prices and incomes this election year. pmna (HIMOIIHOIDS) MtWIKTMMM fSSATtt wTuouf ttocrnai onaTn lM rVQMCM H COLON COMVSMtMT OMM Most proposals ask that farmers refrain from planting part of their present croplands and receive in exchange or some of the more than I billion dollars worth of cot ton, wheat, corn, rice and other products acquired by the govern ment in past price support opera- j Hons. ; The diverted croplands would be planted to grass or put to ton servation uses, but many witnesses expressed fear this might lead to i surpluses of beef, milk and dairy products. President Eisenhower and Sec retary of Agriculture Benson sug gested a voluntary soil bank pro gram with payments high enough to assur diversion of enough crop land to reduce present surpluses. Chairman EUender (D-La) re peated his belief there must be som compulsion or mandatory provision u th soil bank plan is to succeed. He and Sen. Aiken R -VtKagreed that the government has spent be tween 600 and 750 million dollars since World War II In supporting dairy prices.

Tot Has Wet Time Behind Locked Door Twenty two month old Laurie N'isbet bad a fine time locked alone in the bedroom until she turned on the water and could not turn it off. Then she started screaming. Then her brother and mother, who had been trying to wheedle her into opening the door, fear ing that she may be scslded, took more drastic action. Mrs. Neal C. Nisbet called first aidmen while Mike Nisbet. 9, broke a window to enter the bathroom. Laurie was only frightened by the confusion, which included cold water on the floor from the overflowing basin, but first aid men treated Mike for an arm cut received in breaking the window. The children's father, a fire man, although not on duty, was away from the house and missed the entire episode. gun used in the attempt was stolen from his car. Cilcrease. who had been ques tioned previously and admitted bringing Grady William Cope from Portland, was arrested Saturday night after further investigation by himself, state police and Port land authorities. Young said. Cope was captured by Mr. and Mrs. Dean MrFarland in the at tempted holdup Thursday, McFar land, shot in the chest in the strug gle, was reported "much improv ed' Saturday in Salem General Hospital. Young said two Portland cases had been cleared up by Portland police in questioning Cope, who is Seld under $10,000 bail. Research Seeks Parsnip Chips, Beau Nuggets ATLANTIC CITY. N.J. UP -Secretary of Agriculture Benson Saturday envisioned a future eve ning when you could sit down to watch television with a bowl of "parsnip chips' or "lima bean nuggets" at your side. In a talk at the National Cah ners Assn. convention, Benson said research is under way to develop "new vegetable snacks" such .s "carrot and parsnip chips, beet chips, and lima bean and pea nug gets." He said the research work is designed to expand markets for horticultural products. Weather Balloon Speeding East Across Pacific i ' OPPAMA. Japan if) - A U. S. Navy weather balloon launched here early Saturday is moving eastward across the Pacific at about 65 miles an hour and is ex pected to reach the western United States early Tuesday, the Navy said Saturday night. The balloon, carrying weathrr recording instruments and radio equipment, was spotted 1.130 miles east of Tokyo Saturday. A similar launching earlier this week misfired when an automatic trigger released the weather quip ment into the sea. Another launching is scheduled for early Sunday, U.S. Blames Chinese Reds For Deadlock by JOHN' M.

Rriaime of this, Ihe prospects of breaking Ihe deadlock aprar slim. AH War State Department officials said, however, that thry believe war over Formosa can be avoided and that th Geneva talks which start ed Aug. I ran be kept going The American statement avoided the usual propaganda phrasing and de nunciations of the Reds In the ap parent hope of Inducing them to make real concessions. At the same time the- l'nitd States provided another firm Indi caton that it is in the Formosa area to stay. The statement made these princi pal points: I. The Communists have said In the Geneva talks that they are willing to 'renounce the . us of threat of force but thry refuse to apply that to Formosa on the ground that Formosa "is Chinese territory" and the United Stales has no right there. Reds I'atiiUlag i. Thus "the Communists so far seem willing to renounce force only if they are first conceded the goals for which they would use force." 1 The United Slates has "rights and responsibilities' in the For mosa area and has a defense treaty with Nationalist China. 'Therefore Red China's maneuvers : "can only be interpreted as an at tempt to Induce the United States to agree that if attacked it will forego the right to defend its lawful presence in this area." I State Department officials agree i that as the negotiations now stand the issue is Fo.mosa, Red China's threat to take it and U.S. dctermi 'nation to defend it as a link in its Pacific outposts. Red Arcasatiea Late Wednesday the Chinrse Reds accused the United States of dodging the issue in the Geneva talks. They said "the root of the tension" in the Far East is "U.S. armed occupation of China's terri tory." In Saturday's reply, the Stale Department reminded Red China and the world that 13 American civilians are still held in Red Chi nese prisons despite a Communist agreement last September to re lease them. U. S. officials said the Chinese are holding them as bar gaining pawns. These officials also said that if the Red Chinese would Join in a renunciation of force as applied to Formosa and would release the 13 Americans, this country would be willing to talk about lifting the trade embargo Imposed on Red China during the Korean war.

Kellogg, president of th Nstional Lum ber Manufacturers Association. There will be good buys, especially In th do-lt-yourself msrket In which a rapidly growing number of experienced home craftsmen have learned to get the most out of economy grades, shorts and other bargain lumber for both utility and dccM-ativ value. HARDWOODS One of the advantages of hardwood floors Is that they resist the Indenting action of furniture legs and castors. Tests have shown that heavy objects resting on hsrd mspl will not Indent the wood even if unmoved for a long time. DO LOOK NOW Just about this lime is a very good W to ex amine the stored bulbs. Some of them may have developed a little rot which should be removed. Perhaps home bulbs have decayed all together and then should be entirely removed. Take an extra look that do insects are ar work. Plastic bags make good storsg containers for glsdioli, tuberous begonias and dahlias. But don't leav them inside tbe plastic too late in the spring lest they begin to sprout. , . THE LITTLE THINGS If anv of your house plsnts become in fested with gnat-like flies, or with tiny, white insects that float on the surface after water has been applied, recognize them at once as nothing terribly serious or destructive. They are simple to era dicate, too, by applying one of the soil disinfectants. One comes in a container made easy to use by holes in the top snd you iust shake the material on and wster it in. If you us an insecticide dust or sprsy, direct some against the soil.

Plant Trees When Soil is Workable Now that deciduous trees and shrubs have set their leaves, we become aware of the evergreen plants and the important part they play in the garden picture this time of year. Now is the time to evaluate plants around the home, in the borders, or in the background. Is the picture still pleasing to the eye or does it look spotty where deciduous material filled the gap last summer? Visit your nursery man, he will gladly help you with suggestions for landscaping your garden. If your soil is not over wet, plant whenever trees or shrubs you need that are available. Soak them thoroughly (this is as soon as the soil Is workable) to bring the soil in around, the roots and pre vent air pockets.
