They are a mighty race. The people of Paris will be put on the honor system in auto parking, come October. The driver will be his own park ing meter. A dispatch from Paris says the police will require each mo torist driving into the crowded central part of the city to carry i a parking control card which he must paste to the windshield when he parks. Then he'll turn a little knob which indicates the time of arrival, and that auto matically will set a pointer showing when his time is up. And what if a driver is in clined to fudge and set the park ing time forward a bit? Fie end tush. Jacques, o 1 d boy, that wouldn't be playing fair with the gendarmes.

New Yorkers are finally ac cepting the notion that the end of this baseball season may be goodbye to the National League, what with the Giants and Dodg ers flirting fervently with San Francisco and Los Angeles. This also would end forevermore the possibility of a "subway series," with two New York clubs meet ing in the fall. However, all is not lost for phrase-loving sports writers. Un der the new set-up there always could be the possibility of a coast-to-coast World Series. With high-altitude jet- planes coming in, a "Stratosphere Series" may be just around the corner in the sports pages. Dutch Plane Forced Down by Communists Amsterdam (tfl Communist jet fighters forced a Dutch air liner to land Wednesday in the Red Slovak city of Bratislava, airline officials said today. ;The big, U.S.-built DC6B was held on the ground for half an hour.

The report, issued Thursday night, estimated that the gross national product the nation's total output of goods and ser vices amounted to an annual rate of $434,500,000,000 at tne close of the year's second quar ter on June 30.

(IP) Stocks fell off the 490 shelf with something of a thump and thereby set off talk that the tf&Xt&si& 1 market might soon neaa ior the 450 level or even lower. That 490 mark in the i Dow-Jones in dustrial aver age had been r e g a rded as Elmer Waizer something of a strong resistance level. There was a tendency to show a bit of rally until the figure got a puncture of two points or more. Then the fall was fast and furi ous with a late ticker accompani ment. Here is the way the experts view the immediate future for the market: A test of the 450 level fol lowed by a rally before Labor Day. Another smack after Labor Day with volume sufficient to clean up the correction by the end of September. Then a do nothing period for a time. Lighter Portfolios There'll be rallies from time to time, say the market men. Not a few of them are advising light ening of portfolios of unwanted items on these rallies. None as yet is advising dump ing stocks. Hold the good stocks, and keep a good cash reserve for buying later on, the experts assert. Factors' in the selling haven't changed. The market is worried over such things as an apparent deflation of the defense effort, talk of further government econ omies, and tight money. These developed when the stock market was at levels con sidered too high by many mar ket men. So far, it is noted, there hasn't been much scare selling. There was said to have been some in the previous session. Relatively Small Volume The volume has been relative ly small in relation to the shares listed and hence only a small portion of stock has been dis lodged. It is not expected that investment holdings will be dumped. The market since it hit its 1957 high on July 12 has been in a steady decline. It has wiped out more than one-half of the rise that occurred from Feb. 12 to July 12. The usual procedure in one of these selloffs is to wipe out one-third to two-thirds of the recovery. If the decline goes to two-thirds of the rise, it will bring the industrial av erage down to 476.33. Not a few think the whole rise will be wiped out eventually in this correction. That would leave the average at around 455. SOMETHING FISHY HERE Detroit (IP) Police today looked for a nature lover who prowled around Denby High school. The thief Thursday stole a small aquarium, 10 guppies, a batch of seaweed and half a doz en snails. Irate Auioisi Blocks Car on Rail Tracks Hollywood, Fla. (IPI Police searched today for a malicious motorist who deliberately had blocked a car from backing out of the way of an oncoming train. The driver, his wife and son jumped from the stalled vehicle seconds before a Florida East Coast streamliner plowed into it. Sven Fogelstrom, 61, told po lice that the driver of the other car apparently became angry when Fogelstrom made a wrong turn at the railroad crossing. Fogelstrom said h tried to back off the tracks as soon as he realized his error but was blocked by the other vehicle. Then Fogelstrom tried to drive across the tracks, but his engine stalled. He, his wife Gertrude, and 10-year-old son, Allwyn, leaped out of the car. The driver of the other car drove off just before the train smacked into Fogel strom's car, demolishing it. One Killed, One Hurt By Train on Trestle Junction City (IP) One man was killed and another injured Thursday afternoon when they were caught on a train trestle by a Southern Pacific train. Killed was James Pullin, 57, Big Bend, Calif. Injured and in a Eugene, Ore., hospital is Charles Arthur Weatherby, 61, Vancouver, Wash.
