A Salina salesman knocked at the door of a lady who happened to be a competitor's wife and knew her legal P's and Q's. The upshot was a visit to the police station.

Dallas has had 38 days this year with temperatures over 100 degrees. The mercury has gone as high as 109 degrees. WATER RATIONING Hardly a city in the thickly populated northeast Texas area has enough water. Most cities have water rationing. In Dallas, homeowners may water their lawns and shrubs only on alter nate days between 8 p.m. and 8 a.m. Normally Dallas gets its water from a series of lakes to the north. Today they arc so nearly dry that the city has had to go to Red River for a supply of water with a salt content about six times greater than is generally regarded Editor's Note Three American correspondents regularly stutioned In Moscow are in Novosibirsk, Siberia, for the first time.

A whirlwind inspection failed to uncover any reason why Western ers had been kept out. There arc no obvious security force instal lations or military bases. The city is developing fast. Buildings are going up. Factories are mushrooming. The chairman of the City Soviet (council) said 100 apartment buildings with more than two million square feet of foor area will be completed this year. The city's showplace is Krasny Prospekt 'Red Prospect, the two- mile-long main street. Down its center is a broad park strip.
