It's State Fair Time again!
And people are apparently
well aware of the fact that the
great eight-day event got un
derway Saturday morning, for
they were beginning to fill the
grounds by late morning.
The gate opened to the pub
lic at 8 p.m. and by 11 a.m.
there was a count of 2,321 paid
admissions. This more than
doubled the figure last year,
the first year that the fair
opened on Saturday, when the
paid attendance wai 1,007 at
11 a.m.
There appeared to be no let
up either in the steady move
ment of cars in the direction
of the fairgrounds.
Saturday seemed to be fam

little folks and Kiddy Una

as it Is on "Children's Day,

the two nations glared at each

bitter Trieste dispute,
Belgrade threatened yester
day, in its fourth protest in
three days, to rush its own
tough troops to the Italian bor

vocative" maneuvers there.
Rome replied last night that
Italian forces had taken only
"precautionary and protective
measures." 'The Italian note,
however, did not describe
these measures.

With the final word thus

said even if the incidents were
true they seemed or very

On the other hand, declared
the Italian foreign ministry.

that Yugoslavia plans to an

of State John Foster Dulles as

Luciolli made the statement
to reporters after a hastily ar
ranged 15-minute meeting
with Dulles. The two discussed
"recent phases" of the Trieste
controversy.
"I was very glad to hear
from the secretary that the
policy of the United States
government has not changed,"
Luciolli said
. Dulles himself told a news
conference Thursday that the
United States has been search
ing for alternatives to the 1948
U.S.-British-French dec lara-
tion advocating return of Tri
este to Italy. He said, however,
that this nation has not come
up with an alternative.
Union Rejects
Telephone Offer
Portland 7 The latest
offer by the Pacific Telephone
and Telegraph Company was
turned down Friday by CIO
Communications Workers.
But Arne Gravem, state dl
rector of the union, predicted
that negotiations for a new
contract in Oregon would con
tinue. He said the offer was
called final but "the company
has given us a lot of final offers
and the union isn't going to get
excited," he said.
The company, which Friday
withdrew a controversial lay
off proposal, said the "union
indicated its major objection
was to modifications requested
by the company on seniority,
holidays, grievances and dis
missal . . .

Mystery Bombs
In Kansas City
Kansas City, Mo. u. The
fifth in a mysterious series of
bombings rocked s Kansas City
buriness building today. Police
suspected gamblers or an ex
pert "crackpot."
The bomb, placed under

and caused heavy damage to
the building, known as "The
Glass House" which sells china
and glassware.
Police picked up a suspect in
the case, although officers said
a search of the area produced
no bomb fragments or clues.
There were no witnesses to
the explosion esrly today, 'al

who have been on 12-nour

The polls will open at 8 a. m.
(11 p. m. PST) and close iz
hours later. The trend should
be clearly established by early
Monday.
To the outside world it looks
like a contest between Soviet
Russia and the United States.
To the average German, how
ever, there is not the clearcul
East-West choice tnat recent
statements from Washington
and Moscow have implied. Re
unification of Germany, a proj
ect all parties favor, is upper
most in the minds ot many. -
Despite the continued agita
tion by Red agents wherever
they felt they could circum
vent West German autocrines,
the federal Interior ministry
announced that any threat ot
wide-scale election violence ap
peared ended. The ministry
said the situation along the
East German border was quiet,
with no recent direct infiltra
tion by the Reds. Nevertheless,
the West German border police
remained on emergency alert

"The speed is particularly
appreciated ... at a time when

available to the U. S. covem
ment for foreign aid has been
curtailed and congress is not

The presidential action was
viewed in the united states as
a move to keep Iran from
aligning - herself with Soviet
Russia, her big neighbor to the
north.

record set in 1951 when Col.
Keith K. Compton streaked
55348 m.p.h. in an Edwards

was held in 1953.
All 10 of the Air Force ot

without mishap, although one
plane was "flamed out" about
100 miles from the finish. The
pilot, Capt James Carton of El
