Man Nabbed in Plot
To Kill Khrushchev
Attempt To Take
Makeshift Bomb
Over Fence Foiled
New York -IUPII-A 22-ytftr-old
man was captured early
today trying to sneak into the
sealed-off United Nation
grounds with a makeshift
bomb in a drunken plan to
kill Soviet Premier Nikita S
Khrushchev.
"I was only after Khru
shchev, nobody else but him,"
Richard Hogan told newsmen
after his capture.
"He is insulting the United
States making us look like
small people," he said. "I lost
a lot of buddies in Korea."
Hogan was carrying a soda
bottle filled with inflam
mable liquid when he was
caught trying to crawl over
a fence bordering U.N. terri
tory. No United Nations
meetings were in session
It was the first bomb inci
dent known to be directly
connected with Khrushchev
since the Russian leader ar
rived here Sept. 19 for the
U.N. General Assembly ses
sion. There have been a num
ber of false bomb alerts, how
ever, and a crude cardboard
box bomb exploded Sunday
in Times Square seriously in
juring a 73-year-old man.
Had Toured Ban .
Hogan, a laborer, was
charged with carrying and
possessing a deadly weapon
with Intent to use and carry
ing and possessing an explo
sive substance with intent to
use against person or prop
erly. Hogan told detectives he
had finished work Tuesday at
4 p.m. and spent the rest of
the afternoon and evening in
a scries of bars in Queens and
Manhattan.
In one of the bars, he said,
he saw a television program
about Khrushchev's activi
ties, and said to himself,
"Somebody ought to put him
away.
Hogan said he decided to
see "if I could make it."
"I'd consider myself a lucky
guy to assassinate Khru
shchev," he said. "I would
have gotten rid of a big head
ache.
He denied making the
bomb, a 12-ounce bottle filled
with an infiamable liquid
with an 11-inch piece of blue
cloth set in place as a fuse.
He said he had found it.
Spotted by Patrolman
Police believed the liquid
was gasoline.
Hogan was spotted ap
proaching the U.N. grounds
by patrolman William Fish
er, a member of the extra
heavy security detail that has
been posted around the glass
walled U.N. headquarters
since the start of the General
Assembly session.
As he was about to climb
the fence, police said Flshor
shouted at him and told him
to raise his hands. The Molo
tov cocktail fell to the
ground.
Police said Hogan has a
record for drunkenness and
that he told them he was
placed in Bcllevue hospital
for drunkenness in 1958,
1959 and 1960.

Creative Ability
Related To Humor
Chicago -(Science Servlce)
Your child'! C.Q. (creativity
quotient) is related to his
sense of humor. Research by
Prof. Jacob W. Getzels and
Prof. Philip W. Jackson of the
University of Chicago points
to development of a "creativi
ty quotient" similar to the
I.Q. system of ratings now in
use.
For their research on gifted
ncss, they used a group of
about 500 adolescents in the
University of Chicago Labora
tory School from the sixth
grade to the end of the senior
year in high school. They
found that the emphasis on
sense of humor is so marked
that it is the one characteris
tic that sharply sets apart the
high-creativity group from all
other groups. Their research
also disclosed that teachers
prefer the high I.Q. child to
the child with the high C.Q.
The highly creative child
studied was selected only if
he was not in the top 20 per
cent in I.Q. The high I.Q.
child and the high C.Q. child
were equally superior in
school achievement to the
student population as a whole.

Business Upturn
Eyed To Save
Budget Surplus
Washtngton-fUPD-The admin
istration is counting on big
upturn in business in the clos
ing months of the year to save
what is left of the 1961 budget
surplus.
But economists In and out
of government doubted today
there would be as big a busi
ness spurt as was anticipated
by a new budget report.
With revenues down and
spending up, the $4.2 billion
surplus proposed last January
by President Eisenhower has
melted to $1.1 billion, the
Budget Bureau reported Tues
day night in Its mid-year re
view.
The shrinkage dimmed the
chances of a general tax cut
next year.
Revenues from corporate
profits taxes were off $2 bil
lion as profits failed to match
the SSI billion forecast. The
Treasury said they are likely
to hit $47 billion, equal to
the record set in 1959.
Near Original Forecast
It also said that total out
put of goods and services this
year would come within one
per cent of the original fore
cast of $512 billion. That
would be $507 billion or bet
ter.
Economists interviewed by
UPI doubted that this level
could be achieved. With busi
ness stalled at a $505 billion
annual rate in the third-quar
ter of the year, they noted, it
would take a Jump of about
$9 billion in the October-No
vember - December rate to
push the figure for the whole
year up to $507 billion.
The new budget figures for
the current, fiscal year show
ed revenue of $81.5 billion
and spending of $80.4 billion.
Revenues were off $2.5 bil
lion from the earlier estimate
and expenditures were up
$600 million.
Budget Dlretcor Maurice H.
Stans blamed Congress for $2
billion of the shrinkage in the
surplus. He cited its refusal
to enact higher postal rates
and certain excise tax in
creases, and passage over a
presidential veto of a $746
million annual pay boost for
civilian government em
ployees.
Lodge Due in Oregon Tonight for Campaigning;
Smith, Mrs. Neuberger Express Different Views
By United Press International
Henry Cabot Lodge, the Re
publican vice presidential
candidate, flicj into Oregon
tonight in preparation for a
day of campaigning Thursday.
Lodge will spend tonight in
Corvallis, hold a news con
ference there Thursday morn
ing and speak at Gill coliseum
in the early afternoon before
flying to Portland. He speaks
in Portland in front of Nixon-
Lodge headquarters at 3:15
p.m. and in the auditorium at
8 p.m. He will spend the
night in Portland and leave
the next morning.
The two rivals for the U.S.
Senate, Republican Elmo
Smith and Democrat Mrs,
Maurine Neuberger, sched
uled two more appearances
on the same platform today,
at an Aero club noon lunch
eon in Portland and at an
afternoon meeting in Hills-
boro before grade and junior
high school teachers.
Differ on Amendment
The two candidates differ
ed on the Connally amend
ment and on the proposed
Oregon Dunes National Sea
shore in an appearance at
Lewis and Clark College
Tuesday. The Connally
amendment restricts partici
pation of this country in oper
ation of the world court.
Mrs. Neuberger said she fa
vors repeal of the reservation,
which allows the U.S. to deter
mine issues of "domestic"
concern on which it will not
accept the court's jurisdiction.
Smith said he was not com
pletely opposed to elimination
of the reservation but said
"we should go a little bit
slow." He said American in
terests should not be made
subject to the court "unless
we can be sure the cards are
not stacked against us."
Smith told a question and
answer session that hi be
lieved if the amendment were
repealed one of the first ques
tions to come up may be
whether or not this country
was properly occupying the
Guantanamo Navy base in
Cuba.
Dunes Views Clash
On the dunes park pro
posal Smith said he opposed
any program that would see
the area "locked up for single-
purpose use." Mrs. NeuDerger,
whose late husband proposed
the park, said its creation
would be a boom to the tourist
trade. !
