U.R The dump Nixon drive is the outcome of a four-year "underground movement" by persons miffed at Vice President Richard M. Nix on's part in prosecution of Alger Hiss, Sen. H. Alexander Smith (R-N.J.) charged Wednesday night. Smith, who said the Republi can ' party "can't do without Nixon," charged that persons and groups opposed to jailing of Hiss on perjury charges have spent years laying plans "to undermine Nixon and destroy him." Those plans "started an under ground movement in this coun try which was not necessarily Communist inspired," Smith said, "but certainly was inspired by those who felt Hiss should not have been convicted." TREE FIRE Riverton, Wyo. (U.R) The Riverton fire department has something new on its record extinguishing a fire in a tree house. Officials said the children who constructed the tree dwell ing apparently started the fire when they attempted to light a kerosene lamp. SAY IT WITH MUSIC Wichita. Kan.

(U.R) If you want to catch one of Wisconsin's famous giant muskellunge, you'll bait you hook with a fish that looks big enough to make a meal in itself. The return on your "invest ment" can be up to 60 pounds of one of the most ferocious game fish found in fresh water and the thrill of a lifetime. Wisconsin officials, applying much the same theory to their efforts on behalf of the state's tourist industry, spend a quarter of a million dollars each year to Harriman's Staff Given Polio Shots Chicago (U.R) Doctors inocu lated the Harriman for Presi dent headquarters staff with Salk vaccine Thursday to protect them against a record outbreak of polio here. Dr. Herman N. Bundesen, president of the Chicago Board of Health, took doctors and nurses to the headquarters in the Conrad Hilton hotel to ad minister the shots at the request of Gov. Averell Harrimann of New York, aspirant for the Democatic presidential nomina tion. Bundesen personally super vised the inoculations. The mass inoculations were set up after a personal telephone re quest to Bundesen from Harri man as the case count in the city's worst polio outbreak in history climbed to 653 for the year. promote the state as a vacation- land. The return is "conservatively estimated" at $400,000,000 a year, or $1,600 spent by tourists for every $1 spent by the state government. Only Educated Guns J. H. H. Alexander, who heads' the conservation depart ment's recreation section, said there is no way now to make more than an educated guess at the state's actual tourist income. But with Michigan claiming a $500,000,000 yearly tourist busi ness, Alexander said the $400, 000,000 figure for Wisconsin was "conservative." Alexander opened the section 20 years ago with a $50,000 year ly budget and answered 17,954 queries from prospective tour ists. Last year, the section an swered 131,926 requests for in formation, and by June 1 this year had processed 98,740 in quiries. 18,000 more than at the same time in 1955. The budget for the work now is $253,000. The answer service is one of the agency's biggest jobs. Each query is answered with a color ful 26-page booklet outlining va cation advantages of nine sec tions of the state, a list of organ izations that will give detailed information on each section, a road map, and a set of fishing regulations. If the letter writer asks about a special part of the state, he'll get additional liter ature supplied by tourist organ izations there. The recreation section also places advertising in newspa pers, magazines and television to promote the state's tourist busi ness. Postage, printing, ad space and production cost about $150,- 000 last year, Alexander said. New Phast of Work The agency went into an en tirely new phase of work this spring when it opened a plush tourist information center in the Chicago loop. It is estimated that about 80 per cent of Wisconsin's out-of-state tourists come from the Chicago metropolitan area, and the patronage at the center seems to bear it out. "The telephone rang the min ute the installers hooked up the wires," Alexander said. "I an swered and gave the man the in formation he wanted and then asked him how he got the num ber. He said he had copied it Prison Term Meted In Derailment Try Portland (U.R) Dale Phil ip Cornwell, 20, Spokane, Wash., has been sentenced to two years in prison for attempting to wreck a pasenger train. Cornwell was sentenced by U.S. Judge Claude McColloch who rejected a plea by the de fendant that he be placed on probation so he could attend college and study engineering. Cornwell pleaded guilty last month to -attempting to wreck the Union Pacific City of Port land Domeliner at Boardman. Railroad ties were put on the track one day and scrap iron another. No one was hurt and there was no damage as the locomotive knocked the material from the tracks. off the door of the center more than a week before and had been calling every day since." Wisconsin has some other im portant services it hopes will make friends. The conservation department puts out a weekly county-by-county report on fish ing conditions, aimed at week end travelers. The highway depart ment issues maps periodically showing road construction and detpurs. And the State Public Service Commission clamps a Memorial Day to Labor Day ban on all heavy truck week end travel except for hauling of perishables. Salem (U.R) Jack C. Stan gier, Pendleton, has been ap pointed as a member of the Ore gon Racing Commission.
