Bomb Roeks ,
Peron- School
In Argentina.
Rumors Rampant
In Buenos Aires
BUENOS AIRES Wl A
bomb exploded, early Thurs
day in front of a Peronista
political school in downtown
Buenos Aires, shattering win
dows in the vicinity and dam
aging a nearby automobile
slightly.
There was no immediate report
of any persons injured.
Police put a cordon around the
area of the school, which gives
courses in the principles and
political practices of President
Juan Peron's dominant Peronista
party.
The postmidnight blast caused
widespread alarm. It came after
a day and night of all sorts of
rumors sparked by the announce
ment Wednesday that the Argen
tine fleet had sailed on its first
maneuvers since the June 16 re
volt by navy and Marine Corps
fliers.
Two government communiques
broadcast Wednesday s night by
the nation-wide government radio
network denounced rumor mon
gers and asserted, "The nation is
tranquil."
Until the bomb blast, generally
normal conditions had prevailed
on the streets of Buenos Aires.
The only unusual activity was the
posting of extra guards at federal
police headquarters and a few
other strategic points for a few
hours before dawn Wednesday.
Announcement that the fleet
had to put to sea immediately re
called reports just after the June
16 revolt that dissident naval
units had fled aboard two of the
navy's largest ships. These re
ports later proved untrue. The
government said recently that
the navy is completely loyal, fol
lowing a reshuffling of the top
naval command and the arrest of
three admirals charged with mas
terminding the revolt.
Naval authorities said the ma
neuvers had been planned for
two months, long before the re
volt. Such exercises are custom
ary at this time of year.
Humors circulated in Rio de
Janeiro Wednesday that Presi
dent Peron had resigned and that
a bomb had been found in the
Argentine War Ministry. A check
with Buenos Aires disclosed no
substantiation.
Armed Bandit

Alfred Peterson, Salem, who
has served slightly more than half
his 46 years behind bars, was
sentenced to 18 years in the peni
tentiary Thursday after pleading
guilty in Lane County Circuit
Court to armed robbery.
Peterson is one of three Polk
County jail escapees charged with
robbing a Lane County family

According to slate police, rotor
son and the other two had been
jailed at Dallas oil separate
charges. They escaped after re
ceiving several hacksaw blades
from an accomplice outside the
jail, police sa'ijl.

Chiefs Hail
Dramatic Bid
By MAX HARRELSON
of the Associated Press
GENEVA Wl President
Eisenhower, in a dramatic
bid for coexistence, proposed
Thursday that the United
states and rtussia give eacti
other "a complete blueprint
of our military establish" .
ments."
Each of tho two major powers
then would inspect by air the es
tablishments of the other, th
President told the Big Four con
ference. His proposal was hailed
by Premier Faure of France and
Prime Minister Eden of Britain,
Soviet Premier Bulganin said,
"We have all been deeply moved
by the very sincere declaration,"
a French spokesman who was
present reported later.
The President did not say spe
cifically whether his proposal in
eluded atomic installations, but he
did not rule them out. The presi
dential press secretary, James C. '
Hagerty, said details would be
worked out.
The President's dramatic move
was made at the fifth session of
the summit conference.
He said Russia and the United!
States by this step would "con
vince the world that we are pro
viding between ourselves against.
the possibility of a surprise at-.
tack."
This, he said, would lessen dan
ger and help relax world tension.
Trcmier Faure remarked he
wished all the people of the world
could have been in the chamber
to hear Elsenhower, If that were
possible, Faure added, maybe
they would realize that on July
21, 1955 Thursday something
changed in the world and the
first victory over skepticism was
scored at the conference.
Hagerty reported that Eden
made some disarmament Inspec
tion proposals on Britain's behalf
and Faure talked about budgetary
controls over disarmament.
These developments came as
the Big Four turned to the issue
of disarmament and postponed
until Friday a foreign ministers'
report on their study of European
security and German unification.
The foreign ministers were re
ported in substantial agreement
on arrangements to resume tho
talks on Germany at a Big Four
foreign ministers' meeting in
October.
In discussing disarmament, one
of the major topics on the confer
ence ag nda, the President said
he would like to address his re
marks particularly to the Sovfct
delegation. Ho added he wanted
to do that because both the
