CENTRAL OREGON'S DAILY NEWSPAPER THE 53rd Year One Section Talks Aimed At Healing Policy Rifts LONDON (UP) President Eis enhower and Prime Minister Sir Anthony Eden will concentrate on differences in British and Ameri can policy in the Middle and Far r-ast in next week's talks at Washington, diplomatic sources said today. The sources said the Far East, especially Formosa, will rank second. They said the talks shape up a series of British proposals lor easing tension in the Arab Israeli situation and the Chinese Nationalist -Communist "little war," versus American stands on the same issues. Britain wants: 1. Joint action to end the Arab Israeli dispute, based on territor ial compromises, chiefly by Israel. 2. American membership in the anti- Communist Baghdad Pact, which the United States now sup ports as an "observer." 3. American support in the fight against -anti- British propaganda activities by Saudi Arabia, which allegedly are financed by funds paid to Saudi Arabia by the Arabian-American Oil Company. Amer icans control the firm. 4. Economic and technical as sistance to the Middle East to counteract Soviet moves in that direction. 5. Limitation of American com mitrnents in Formosa, based on the argument that the Nationalist offshore island of Matsu and Quemoy really Ibelong to the Com munists.

Outline Presented A star-studded rainbow arch, il luminated through rheostat control. is planned for the 1956 river show, Designed "by Pfdiowski and Wal ter Norrls, an outline of the pro posed arch was presented to thej group. July 4 falls on a Wednesday this year, and it is for this rea son that two week-end shows, Saturday nights, and a Fourth of July show are being planned. Fit ting into the fete schedule will be a week-long program. The opening event, the salmon and beef barbecue, would 'be on Friday night, June 30. Despite the destruction of the arch a few days prior to the open ing show last year, the fete net ted a small profit, protecting the reserve that has been built up over a period of years, C-ilHson noted in his report. figures Given The 19j5 fete, not including the outlay in money and labor by fete sponsors, cost $11,628.19. Receipts amounted to $11,838.26. The profit of a little more than $200, as of Sept. 30, 9515, was further lowered by late bills. At the start of the "fete year" in 1955, the reserve was $4,347.96. The reserve now on hand amounts to $4,431.20. It was estimated that the loss of the arch last year and the con struction of a new one amounted to about $1,200 in unseen expenses. Rogers noted that the loss of the arch in 1955 cemented the pageant supervisors and the community more closely together than ever before. When a call for help was sent out, 45 men responded, and they assisted in clearing the debris and starting the new arch.
