Nixon said last night that the coming Geneva Big Four ministers conference holds more promise for resolv ing East-West differences than any conference since World War II. Nixon spoke at the New York Herald Tribune Forum. His speech was non-partisan and even included a quotation from Democratic President Woodrow Wilson. Nixon said the "chances for peace today are better than at any time since World War II." He cited the "spirit of Geneva" as setting up the peaceful atmos phere but warned that the Gen eva spirit "does not mean peace at any price." -Samt Position The vice-president said Secre tary of State John Foster Dulles will go to Geneva "on the look out for the real policies of the Kremlin, not merely professions of good will." "The United States is willing to accept any proposal leading towards peace," Nixon said, "ex cept one that would mean sur render of our own freedom or the freedom of others . . ." . He said the American posi tion is the same as stated in said: "Ai?atriotic. American is never so proud of the great flag under which he lives as when it comes to mean to other people Afiempl To Gel . Foothold Viewed With Concern Washington (Utf) The United States, already suspicious that Russia may be trying to get a foothold in the Middle East, today studied a new Soviet bloc offer of economic aid to Egypt. The Russian offer was made known officially Monday after Egyptian Amabassdor Ahmed Hussein held a private meeting with Secretary of State John Foster Dulles. He said the Soviet Union has told Egypt it is will ing to help build a giant $600, 000,000 dam on the Nile river. Dulles faced questioning on the explosive Middle Eastern situation today at his weekly news conference. The session was expected to be his last with reporters before departing Sat urday for the Big Four foreign ministers meeting at Geneva. To Fly To Denver The busy secretary of state planned to leave by plane later this afternoon for Denver where he will hold his final pre-Gen-eva strategy huddle with Presi dent Eisenhower. The new Soviet offer to help Egypt with her dam project ap peared to be a move ;to get a hand .in Mid-Eastern activities. The Soviet world already has agreed to furnish arms-to Egypt and hinted it also is willing -to i912 by Woodrow Wilson who buppiy weapuus lu ibiaej, ndtcu neighbor of Arab nations. The United States is gravely concerned that Russia may be trying to touch off renewed Israel-Arab fighting so Commun ists could capitalize on unrest in the region. International Bank Loan . Since 1952, Egypt has been talking over the possibility of getting a loan from the Interna tional Bank for Reconstruction and Development. But the Arab nation has been unable to obtain a loan yet. . , The Egyptian ambassador said Russia offered to supply equip ment for the project in exchange for . Egyptian cotton and rice. Egypt would be permitted to repay the Soviet Union with these commodities over a 30 year period.' , Despite 4 the ..offer, Hussein said his nation still hopes to get its financing through the International bank. He was un able to 'say whether Egypt would accept the Russian offer if the . International Bank fi nancing falls through. Pedestrian Killed When Hit by Bike Lake Grove, Ore. (U.R) Frank Edward Swope, 73, Lake Grove, was injured fatally last night in a freak bicycle-pedestrian accident. Swope was struck by a bicycle operated by 12-year-old Joseph Alfred Cik who was on his way to a Boy Scout meeting, accord ing to Deputy Sheriff Ray Bevin. Bevin said the boy told him he did not see the elderly man. The lad then ran to a nearby house for help. The Oswego volunteer fire de partment first aid car and a doc tor were summoned; but Swope was dead when the doctor ar rived." The Cik boy was treated for a lacerated scalp and bruises Pendleton Resident Killed in Accident La Grande (U.R) Three persons were in serious condi tion at St. Joseph's hospital here following a one-car accident that killed Maurice A. Webb, 39, Pendleton, Sunday night. Injured were Mr. and Mrs. Don Creason of Imbler and 39-year-old Glenn Williams, address unknown. State police said the car roll ed over several times on a gravel road a few miles north of Cove, Ore. as well as to himself a symbol of hope and liberty." Aid To India The vice-president also re ferred to a "recent, well in tended suggestion that the Uni ted States should discontinue aid to India because India has not agreed with us in certain aspects of our foreign policy." He referred to a resolution passed last week by the Amer ican Legion convention in Miami. Nixon said cutting off aid to India would be more likely to alienate the friendship of India than to frighten the nation to siding with the United States. Nixon also spoke last night to the International Air Transport Association. He hailed President Eisenhower's proposal for adop tion of both the American and Russian arms inspection plans and said there could be "no greater step toward peace." He said such a plan "does not in the slightest weaken a na tion's defensive capacity." Patterson Criticized For Use of Vehicles Portland (U.R) Gov. Paul L. Patterson was criticized .by the Portland Central Labor coun cil last night for allowing state owned vehicles to be used as "strike-breaking devices" at three struck Salem auto agenc ies. A resolution adopted at the suggestion of the Oregon Mach inists council said state cars were going through picket lines at the three struck plants. It declared that protests to Gov. Patterson brought an answer that state business is distributed on basis of bids. Machinists claimed bids had not been asked of all com petent repair shops in Salem Madison, Wis. (U.R) A Madison mother asked police to day not to feed candy to her three-year-old son when he turns up missing next time because "he thinks it's a reward for run ning away." ; ........ . . y Adrienne's We're Celebrating Our 30th (tflnnmrmj Safe Giving You Terrific SAVINGS!
