In The- Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Cold war stuff: The powerful U.S. Seventh fleet (stationed in the Pacific and count ing more than 100 ships, some of them aircraft carriers with bomb ers armed with atom bombs) is standing by to go to the back door of Suez in case of a Mediterranean (Middle East) war. Its commander, Vice Admiral Wallace Beakley, says: "If Turkey were attacked, we'd be in it up to our necks." A "very high" WIS. naval offi cial says this morning that Russia would be "hit from every avail able point of attack if she should fight Turkey." Every "available point of attack" would include our fleets in the Mediterranean and the Pacific, our bases scattered a 1 1 over the world and our long range Strategic Air Command bombers stationed in the United States. That is rough talk. But it may be assumed that it is no inadvertent slip of the tongue on somebody's part. It is said on purpose. WHY is it said? This is a fair guess: Since Sputnik, Russia has been talking pretty big. She has been intimating that ALREADY she has intercontinental ballistic missiles ready to fire. She has been going all out on a propaganda offensive designed to frighten the neutral nations, big and little, into coming over into her camp. So- It may be assumed that we are calling her bluff with the idea that NOW is the time to find out wheth er or not she has the missiles to back up her tall talk. We'll see what we'll see. The death toll from Asian flu and its allied diseases continues to mount across the nation. The latest survey shows 249 fatalities from flu and its complications since the first Asian virus attack last summer. New York, the dispatches this morning inform us, leads the death roll with 55. It is followed closely by Pennsylvania with 50. Shall we get scared? It's hard to say. At first glance 249 deaths sounds a bit grim. But that total goes clear back to last summer. When we recall that on the average 249 Americans die in highway accidents about every two and a half days, the present toll of Asian flu doesn't seem too fright ening. But among us there are still manf whose memory goes back to 1918. when an influenza scourge swclt our nation and the world. It started mild and got tougher. Cen turies of history cause us to shiver at the mention of ASIAN diseases. Epidemics of Bubonic plague were apt to start in Asia. Perhaps we'd better keep our fingers crossed and take all the necessary precaution. - Gl Housing Gets Setback WASHINGTON W - The GI housing program received a vir tual death blow Tuesday. This came when the Federal National Mortgage . Assn. with drew its offer to buy new mort gages at the Veterans Adminis tration rate of 4Va per cent. FNMA, which purchases mort gages from banks and loan com panies to furnish them with new cash (or mortgage lending, also cut the price it will pay for 4'i per cent mortgages guaranteed by VA or insured by the Federal Housing Administration. The new price will be 90 to 92 per cent of the face value of the home loan, instead of 92 to 94. A bank, in other words, would re ceive $9,000 to $9,200 for a $10,000 mortgage. Explaining the changes, a FNMA spokesman said: "We have to do it. It's. not good business to accept 4'i per cent mortgages when we have to pay just about 5 per cent for our money." The FNMA currently is offer ing investors 750 million dollars worth of eight-month notes. They carry 4? per cent interest, the highest rate ever paid on FNMA borrowing. The VA housing program has been dying gradually since the general rise of interest rates made its 4'j per cent rate un attractive to banks and other lenders. Importance Of Trip Eyed NEW YORK W - Hard-headed American and British diplomats brushed away the confetti today and pondered how much the visit of Queen Elizabeth II helped their task of improving U.S.-British co operation. Prime Minister Harold Macmil lan arrives here from London to morrow, little more than 24 hours after Elizabeth and Prince Philip j ended a triumphant 10-day stay! in the United Stales and Canada.) He will start three days of cru-i cial talks with President Eisen hower, Secretary of State Dulles! and British Foreign Secretary j Selwyn Lloyd in Washington.

Esin told the Assembly that a Turkish cabinet minister was en route to Saudi Arabia to discuss the mediation offer. Turkey al ready had agreed to take part in negotiations, but Syria has balked so far: Syrian delegate Farid Zeined dine opposed any delay in the de bate. He said: "Such mediation does not really exist except as a means to con fuse the Assembly and public opinion." Zeineddine declared that Syria seeks this debate so that the As sembly can get the fads and that an inquiry can be made. Turkey, who has denied Syrian charges that she is about to i launch a war, accepted King Saud's offer to mediate the dis pute. But the Syrian government made clear it docs not intend to enter such negotiations at present. Informants said Syria pressed for an immediate U.N. debate on her charges.

The hearing was launched over pretests from Thomas S. Dawson, general counsel of Morton Frozen Foods, Inc., and Roy M.

KLAMATH Prim fin Comas It ragea .- Storm Hits 'Areas By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS A surprise snow I storm that reached blizzard proportions at Spokane swept across parts of the Pacific Northwest . Tuesday as temperatures dropped far below freezing. The snow, camt down with an Arctic cold front, and the Weather Bureau said the storm can be ex pected to last most of the day and perhaps into the. night with some clearing Wednesday. , Temperatures as- low. as 20 de grees were forecast for Tuesday night. At Spokane, 25 cars were re ported stalled in' a 'traffic jam on the Grand Boulevard, hill in the early-morning rush to -work. .High ways leading out of the' city were covered by - snow and reported very slippery, . Visibility in downtown Spokane was cut to two blocks by .8:30 a. m. as the . snowfall increased and looked like a mid-winter bliz zard. . ' ' High winds-brought snow drifts up to three feet at Sandpoint, Idaho and at Kalispell, Mont, gusts of 60 miles an hour whipped up the snow. . There was snow at Coeur d'A lene, Idaho and Oinak, Wash, and it was expected to spread to other Inland cities as. the day wore on.

Ml A never-say-die adventurer once believed lost in the Atlantic on an outboard' motorboat voyage hoped to reach his goal of Bermuda to day after being sighted by a mer chant ship and given fuel and food. Melvin West, a radio disc jockey making the 580-mile trip in the 1 17-foot, 30-horscpower craft he calls the Impossible, was sighted yesterday alternoon by the mer chant ship Alderman 240- miles east of Cape Lookout, N.C. That was 31 hours after his three-day supply of fuel and food was to have run out. West, father of two children, put out from here Thursday on the projected 40-hour trip intended to prove the seaworthiness of out board motors and small boats. His Coast Guard ships, and planes from the Atlantic Coast and from Bermuda had scoured the ocean for thc resident of Morchcad City who draws 10 per cent disability pay for a stomach ailment in curred while in service during the Korean War. His father Barry West, who manages a fishing pier here, said on being informed that his son was alive: "We are so happy we don't know what to say. Now we will have to live with it for anoth er day or so to find out whether he makes it. I'm pretty sure he will. I had confidence all the lime in' his seamanship."

Cases nave No. 124 Mediation Bid Vetoed By Syrians CAIRO MB Reliable inform' nnts said Tuesday Syrian Presi dent Shukri Kuwatly accepted the Saudi offer of mediation in the Syrian-Turkish dispute but his government apparently vetoed the idea. . The informants said Mecca Ra din broadcast Monday night the text of a Kuwatly cable to King Saud accepting the Saudi media tion. The Syrian government has em phatically denied acceptance of the mediation offer. The Syrian government line is that the Saudis are already lined up with Syria and so cannot act as go-between. Informants here speculated that pro-Soviet elements in the Syrian government rejected Saudi media lion in favor nf pursuing the- ques- tion in the Uniicd Nations to make maximum propaganda capital. They apparently hope to biack en Turkey's name completely and prevent any future rapproche ment between turkey ; anu the Arab slates. If Soiid mediated it would make Turkey too respectable in Arab' eyes to suit pro-Soviet Syrian leaders. - (President Kuwatly could accept the mediation offer and still, be overridden by his government since tho president in the current Syrian sil nation has little . real authority. The power In Damascus is shared by a military group strongly influenced by Soviet arms assistance and a powerful Arab Socialist Resurrection Party whose aims al present coincide with those of the army. Kuwatly, considered a middle-of-the roader. is littls more than . a figurehead lor the Syrian regime.) One of ihc big objects of Soviet propaganda appears to be 'to drive a permanent wedge betweea. Tur key and tho Arabs. This would be a major step toward keeping' the Arabs out of any Western defense organization.
