Prof. Camilla Arbnaourg of the Paris Natural History Museum heads the expedition. Scientists working with him say this is the first time remains and tools have been found in the company of fos bil animals which can be dated so early. They belong to what scien tists call the Acheulean and Chel ' lean or Abbevillean periods. The famous Peiplng man and Java man are of later date. Palikao is about 10 miles from Mascara, a busy commercial town in a rich fruit-growing region, mous lor its wines. There has been a great deal of digging there since 1870.

ALERT Today In this city of two million French, Vietnamese and Chinese, police and military stood at the alert to counter expected Vietminh demonstrations.

It was no holiday and there were no outward signs ol either rejoicing or sadness. The final truce today in South Viet Nam marked one of the few periods when the world has been Iree from full-scale war since Dec. 9, 1934, when Mussolini's Italian troops clashed with Ethiopian sol diers on Uhe frontier of disputed SomulllHnd.

"The anglican total is given in some reference books as 30 mil lions," the archbishop went on. "But this is a serious understate ment as a probable figure would be over 40 million, i On the basis of these figures, it can be said as rough guide that. of the whole Christian population, some 52 per cent are Roman Catholics, 23 per cent belong to the various Protestant bodies. 20 per cent are Orthodox, and 5 per cent Anglican.

If testimony at Friday night's meeting indicates that there is a need for the enlargement of the district, an election will be held at a later date at which time any farmer owning more than ten acres of land within the proposed boun daries will be eligible to vote for or against the project. If a two thirds majority vote favorably, the proposed area will then become a part of the KSCD. Supervisors of the Klamath dis trict Clyde .Horsley, Ernest Milani. Verlund Huff, Myron Taylor and Kelly Robinette, have gone on rec ord as favoring the enlargement of the district. One resignation in the present board Is pending at this time and Chairman Horsley stated, "It will be our policy, if our district is en larged by this addition, to get rep resentation from the new areas as fast as possible.

Nations said to be ready to at tend are Britain, France, the Unit ed States, Australia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Thailand and Pakistan. U.S. diplomatic officials ac knowledged there appears to be no chance that such Asiatic coun tries as India, Burma, Indonesia, and Ceylon all of which have important stakes in Southeast Asia would agree either to attend the meeting or to associate them selves indirectly with the military objectives of the alliance. American officials, however, are clinging to some hope that India and other "neutralist" nations in Asia will join in the economic phases of the proposed pact. Members of the proposed alli ance, it was said, would pledge to cooperate to improve economic conditions in the region. Cooper ative action. would include techni ca aid projects. On the military side, members would promise to challenge any aggression in Southeast Asia. No specific ; line would be drawn against the Reds, informants said, but it would be understood inlor mally that -the non-Communist Small Farms Still Important Family-size farms are still im portant producers of food and fib er even after three decades of mechanization. M. D. Thomas, Oregon State College extension agricultural econ omist, says latest census figures show family-size farms are very much in the picture in Oregon and the nation. In Oregon, -six of seven com mercial farms fall into the family size class, he said. In the nation as a whole, the figure is slightly smaller four out of five. But they produce almost three fourths of the farm products sold. Oregon has 34,470 farms classed as commercial. Of these 2200 were considered large scale, while 3600 had too little income to be con sidered family farms. parts of Indochina would be cov ered, even though these states would not be pact signatories. Despite limited Asiatic member ship, American ofiicials were pic tured as confident the pact would discourage any new Red attack in Southeast Asia. Although American policy mak ers were reported to be disappoint ed that India has declined thus far to support the alliance, they also were understood to feel this will not be fatal to success of the anti Communist lineup. .
