' Russians List U.S. Ideas WASHINGTON Wl Twelve trav-el-weary Russians, their American farm tour completed, will soon be flying homeward with information and ideas which may help them cure some of the ills of Soviet farming. Some of the things they learned were listed yesterday by their leader, Vladimir Matskevich, dur ing a talk at the National Press Club. As first deputy minister of Russian agriculture, he Is in a position to make use of them. He expressed hope too that Ihe visit would lay the groundwork tor better U.S. -Soviet relations and said his most vivid impression from the six-week tour was of the warmth and friendship the Amer ican people showed toward his group. He and three others, who re mained in Washington overnight, rejoin in New York today the eight other members of the delegation who left the capital yesterday. Tomorrow they all plan to go to Canada for a two-week tour. The Canadian jaunt will also be very usetul tor them. Some of the climatic conditions in Canada are more like those in important areas of the Soviet Union, whereas some of the areas they visited in the United States have no real coun terparts in their own country. MaUskevlch told the press club of a long list of the things he said his farm delegation learned dur ing the tour here. He expressed a desire to take home with him some of the famous Santa .Oer trudis cattle from Texas, to pur chase American farm machinery, to send delegations here to study specific phases of American farm- ing. " Among other things which he said could be applied in Russia were the U.S. system of stock feed ing for cattle, the production of hybrid feed corn and the mechan ization of small-scale farm proc esses. d FALSE TEETH Rock, Slide or Slip?

Averell Harriman estimates the floods that rampaged througn several counties of southeastern New York last week left damage amounting to about IS million dollars. About a third of this sum, he said, represented destruction of public properly, such as roads. dams and sewers. All the remain ing loss was sustained by private property. In summarizing the New York flood situation on a WRCA-TV broadcast last night, Harriman stated:- "A lot of damage was done, and a great many people are In dis tress, but not in the volume and size of our neighboring states." Yesterday he appointed John W. Johnson, superintendent of public works, to administer any federal funds that may become available for repair of public facilities dam aged bv the flood. Johnson Im mediately wired local officials and asked for damage estimates soon as possible. A. D. O'Connor, regional admin istrator for the Federal Civil De fense Administration, was asked to designate an official to work with Johnson in selecting projects for disaster aid. Help in restoring necessary pub lic facilities was promised last night by the Army Engineers, who announced they had been assigned this Job bv President Eisenhower. Col. John T. O'Neill, New York district engineer, said his - men would help local authorities repair damaged sewer, water,, electric and communications lines. Where Ihe Job Is too big for local authori ties to handle, he added, the en gineers will take over the task entirely. O'Neill and Lt. Gen. S. D. Sturgls Jr., commanding general of the engineers, will meet with Harriman today to discuss the rehabilitation problem. Meanwhile, the flood-stricken section of the atata, where 109 persons were still being cartel for by the Red Cross, continued to work at the wreckage and debris left by the torrential waters. Hard est hit by the New York flood, was the city of Port Jervia. - HOTELS . OSBURN HOLLAND EUGENE. ORE. MM FORI Thoroughly VIoeera , Mrs. J. E. Earley Jo.
