' With his lady on his arm. he left the White House soon alter 10 o'clock, started at the Washington Armory and showed up at three hotels in the next 2 '4 hours. Dance orchestras played, colors; ,vcre trooped, thousands of people promenaded past the presidential . boxes, and celebrated sinsers gave their all with everything from the National Anthem to "The '. nlue Danube" and "Mr. Wonder- Jul." " ' Ike In Perpetual Motion The President was a picture ol 'perpetual motion. i . ; .He bowed, waved, smiled, . '-bobbed up 1and down from the chairs, gave one-and two-handed I salutes to -acquaintances, and fell j jnto at least one deep conversa tion. That was with Secretary of State Dulles, one of his guests in the .presidential box at the Statler ,Hotel.

The President, sipping tomato juice, added, In fact, -everywhere." They all returned to the While -House at 12:42 am. The President also told friends yesterday's Inaugural parade was .'the best parade 1 ve ever seen. lle described it as "less of the "raggedy, strolling kind of thing." your years ago, at his first inaug uration, the big procession kept him in the reviewing stand until well after darkness fell. Yesterday, a shorter army of marchers moved smartly. The parade lasted about an hour long er than the optimistic schedule called for, alter a late start. Grim as Missiles Pass It brought a colorful column of bands and uniforms, precision marching units of the armed serv ices, flower-decked floats with pretty girls in evening dresses aboard and the grim symbols of modern warfare missiles, big and small, developed by the Army. Navy and Air Force. Eisenhower's flashing smile fad ed away each time one of the deadly missiles rolled past the stand. But the big grin came hack when Miss Burma, a Republican elephant, came ambling past. The pachyderm hatted, rose on her hind legs and raised her trunk in solemn salute. Standing near the presidential reviewing stand were two men who played vital roles in Eisen howers llle recently. One was Dr. Paul Dudley White.

I THE CAPITAL JOURNAL Multi-Million Fire Destroys Huse Elevator 400 Men Battle Blaze In 10-Story Plant In Chicago CHICAGO i A spectacular, multimillion-dollar fire destroyed a huge, old grain elevator along the river front on the South Side last night. Some 400 firemen fought the conftgration in the 10-story eleva lor in a driving rainstorm. Nearly 100 pieces of equipment, including three fireboats, were sent to the scene, 94th Street at the Calumet River, an industrial district on the far South Side. Amid towering walls of flames. some three million bushels of grain were reportedly destroyed. However, firemen succeeded in saving a newly built elevator about 150 yards from the blazing 135-loot-tall structure. The new elevator contained about 3l-i mil lion bushels of wheat. Fire officials said they expected the fire would burn "for three days" although they expected to have it under control before noon. Some 40 pieces of equipment were kept at the scene throughout the ' night. j Julius Mayer, executive vice president "of the Continental Grain Co., owners of the elevator, said the loss would amount to "several million dollars." Visible 14 Miles Robert J. Quinn, fire commis sioner, estimated damage at five million dollars. The flames from the elevator, fanned at times by strong winds, were visible nearly into the Loop, some 14 miles north, and attract ed thousands of persons, despite the blustery weather. Some 200 policemen, responding to the extra alarm, rerouted traf fic and kept the crowd blocks from the blazing building. No injuries were reported. How ever, a newsreel cameraman, TIavH Travnham all if th ITni. versal International' Film change, collapsed at the scene and was pronounced dead on arrival at a nearby hospital.

The Chicagoans pledged the money to the newly-formed Crme Detection Institute in hopes that mammoth rewards will help stop crime in Chicago and elsewhere. Institute members said their idea was that informants would not be able to resist telling what they know of major crimes under the impetus of su,ch huge sums of money. Circuit Judge Julius H. Miner, who conceived the Institute and became its first president, said the Bureau of Internal Revenue has indicated officially that contribu tions to the reward fund would be tax-deductible. The number one quarry of the businessmen was the man or men who picked up three Chica go schoolboys on a rain swept street a year ago last October and committed one of the most brutal crimes in Chicago history. The naked, battered bodies ol John Schuessler, 13, his brother, Anton. 11, and Robert Peterson, 13, were found two days later io a forest preserve ditch. One of the greatest manhunts Chicago has ever known failed to .produce the killer. "It would seem logical that someone, somewhere knows some, thing about this crime," Miner said. "Yet, not a trace of the per petrators nor a real clue to the killer has yet been uncovered." He said the reward for informa tion leading to the murderer could well be over the $100,000 offered Monday, with an additional $33.(50 already put forth for the slayer.
