CAVENDISH United Presi Correspondent Warsaw, Poland ftJ.R) Tension is rising in Poland on the eve of the first free elec tion! since the war. Anti - Communist incidents have been reported in many major cities. There has been some violence including one re ported lynching. Groups in sev eral parts of the country have threatened to boycott the voting. But the Communists cannot lose this election. The setup is o rigged that the-Communists Grace and Prince Select Baby Names Monaco (U.R) Prince Rainier announced today the baby born to Princess Grace will be named Gregoire if a boy and Caroline if a girl. And he said it will be born in the same hilltop palace where he was born and not in the Monaco Maternity Clinic as previously planned. Princess Grace is expected to have the baby in a week to 10 days. Rainier said the child will be "Monegasque." "It will not be American," he said firmly. It previously had been under stood the baby would have dual nationality at least until early adulthood. Rainier told newsmen at a press conference that his first born, if a boy, will have four Christian names: Gregorie Georges Pierre Richard; if a girl, she will have three: Caroline Louise Marguer ite. The Prince said he himself would shoot the films of the princess and the baby for world wide television and newsreel distribution. are guaranteed 52 per cent of the vote. The real showdown is between the diehard Stalinists of the "tough" school of Commuism and the "liberal" Communism of Wladyslaw Gomulka. Weslern observers fear that if the Stalinists replace Gomulka as a result of the election, Po land might become Hungary all over again. Gomulka, the bald Commun ist party secretary, is popular and Poland does not wish to go the way of Hungary. But very many Poles are bitterly anti Communist and will have a chance to show it Sunday. Stalinists Gain This anti-Communism and the outbreak of incidents could play into the hands of the "tough" Stalinist Communists who want to suppress opposition to the regime. The results are expected to make or break Go mulka. the "Titoist" who came out of a Communist prison to lead the Polish people to their first taste of freedom since the German invasion of 1939. Observers believe Gomulka California-England Non-Stop Flight Made Brize Norton RAF Base. Eng land U.Ri A mammoth U. S. Air Force B52 atom bomber landed here today after a non slop flight from California. "This is the first time a B52 has landed in England," an Air Force spokesman said. The eight-jet. 650 - mile - per -hour Stratofcrtress. attached to the 93rd Heavy Bombardment Wing of Castle Air Force Base, Calif., lias a range of 6,000 miles and can be refuelled in flight. It was piloted by Maj. Ben H. Clements of Castle and touched down here at 4:30 a.m. PST. An Air Force spokesman said that the Strategic Air Command bomber was on a "routine train ing mission," and would remain several days before returning to the United States. must get much more than the 52 per cent the Communist party is guaranteed if this is to be considered a true vote of confidence in him. If he fails to get a solid majority and it is a question whether hg will the Stalinist wing of the party could say, "We told you so" and try to oust Gomulka by a coup. The Stalinists and the Rus sians are just waiting for Go mulka to make a mistake. Little Control Gomulka is fighting something over which he has little control Poland's disastrous economic situation. He needs economic aid quickly, from Moscow or the West. Compulsory wheat de liveries have irritated peasants. Workers' pay is low. Some fac tories are using machines that were brought from Britain in 1898. The majority of the people can say, "we have almost ach ieved political freedom. Why cannot we have what goes with it?" They mean they want a de cent life. Many live seven to a room. There is little to buy in the shops. Forty per cent of the nation's 22 million inhabitants are expec ted to vote. The actual balloting will be free. But the choice is limited. The three contesting parties are all Communist. One hundred and twenty inde pendent candidates mostly Cath olics, are also in the race, how ever. The independents cannot win. But their protests may be heard. 4-H Club News Chowder Chicks The chowder chicks, "cooking club of Central Point, held a meeting January 12, at the home of the leader, Joan Dobrot.

Economy-Minded Congressmen Promise To Try To Trim Eisenhower's Budget Washington U.PJ Economy minded congressmen promised today to try their utmost to trim President Eisenhower's record peacetime spending budget of S71.8 billion. But they conceded it would be a tough task. No one believed that the bud get could be trimmed enough to justify a general tax cut and still keep the government operat ing in the black. Sen. Harry F. Byrd (D-Va.), a leader of the economy bloc in the Senate, said, "My experience has been that it is very difficult to cut a president's budget." Speaker Sam Rayburn (D Tex.) agreed, particularly "in times like these" when the na tion is prosperous. Foreign Aid Main Target Foreign aid funds will be the principal target of the economy advocates. Mr. Eisenhower proposed spending in the new fiscal year beginning July 1, S14.3 billion on foreign military and eco nomic aid, an increase of S250 million over this year. He re quested $4.4 billion in appro-armed forces. Indeed, Congress Neuberger Criticizes Lack of Yaquina Fund Washington (U.R) A re port that the Budget Bureau "seriously questions the advisa bility or necessity for authoriza tion at this time," of Yaquina bay harbor project was criti cized yesterday by Sen. Richard Neuberger as "typical Eisenhow er administration logic." 1 Neuberger asserted that the report was based on the fact that a planned Alaskan pulp mill which would utilize the har bor has not yet been built. He said it was typical of the present administration because "it does not desire to build dams until factories are built to consume the power or to dredge harbors until industries line those harbors." Neuberger said he was still optimistic, despite the bureau's recommendation, that the S19, 000,000 project will be author ized by the present Congress. priations, or new obligational authority, as against S3.7 ap proved by Congress for the cur rent year. Sen. Richard B. Russell (D Ga.) said this request "ought to be drastically reduced." Sen. Allen J. Ellender (D-La.) pro posed cutting it in "half. Byrd questioned whether foreign aid has been benefiting this nation very much. Cites Britain, France "Britain and France have been the big recipients," he told a reporter. "And they almost set off World War III without even telling us in advance." He was referring to the recent at tack on Egypt. Treasury Secretary George M. Humphrey, the President's chief fiscal adviser, already has in vited Congress to cut Mr. Eisen hower's proposed budget wher ever it can do so without impair ing national security or essential government services. He said that invitation extends to funds for the armed services. Armed Forces Support What will work most strongly against an appreciable budget cut is powerful congressional support for giving Mr. Eisen hower what he wants for U.S. may again allocate more money than the President has asked for the military. Congress last year added $900 million to the President's request for the Air Force. But the Bud get Bureau only recently gave clearance for its expenditure. Mr. Eisenhower estimated military spending in fiscal 1958 at S38 billion the biggest item in the budget. He asked for S38.5 in new money, an increase of $2.1 billion over fiscal 1957. But although their expendi tures will be increased, the Air Force and Army will be cut from 133 to 128 wings and from 19 to 17 divisions, respectively. The high cost of powerful new atomic age weapons accounts for most of the increase in the defense budget. Timberline Lodge Not To Get New Wing Washington (U.R) Addition of a wing to Timberline lodge to expand facilities at the moun tain resort is not included in any current plans of the Forest Serv ice, a spokesman said yesterday. The Portland Chamber of Commerce earlier led a drive to secure the addition along with other improvements to tile ski resort area.
