Steel Strike
Talks Slated
NEW YORK (API - The first
joint peace .talks between indus
try and union since the start of
the nationwide steel strike open
here today under the auspices of
federal mediators.
Joseph F. Finnegan, director of
the Federar Mediation and Concili
ation Service, reiterated his warn
ing that no early or easy settle
ment of the 13-day-old strike ap
pears likely.
Finnegan. who arranged Ihe
Joint talks last week, said on his
arrival -from Washington Sunday
night: "They can't settle this
strike by not talking."
Heading (he negotiating teams
for today a talks arc David J. Mc

Khrushchev
Finds Praise
For Exhibition
MOSCOW (API-The American
Nalional Exhibition in Moscow
opened Friday night and drew
envious praise from the first So
viet visitor Nikita Khrushchev,
"There are good things here,
and we envy you for them," the
Soviet Premier said at Ihe dedi
cation ceremonies. -"They arc
things that Russia will have."
Workmen were rushing about
shouting for a plumber here and
a carpenter there to put on the
finishing touches up until an hour
before Vice President Richard M
Xixon formally opened the fair
But it opened on time and in pret
ty good shape.
True, some dirt had been swept
into corners, and there were a
few wet spots in the concrete. But
all but a half dozen of the exhibits
were completely in place.
The opening day audience of
5,000 was by invitation mostly
diplomats and Soviet officials and
their families. Fair managers
are counting on a daily attendance
of 50.000 with tickets selling at
one ruble 25 cents at the
Soviet-fixed rate.
The fair grounds cover nine
acres of Sokolnikl Park a Little
America in the heart of the So
viet capital.
For the Russians to see. were
displays of things - Americans
wear and eat; things they use at
play; model cars; homes and
boats, plus a fashion show and
soft drinks.
The barbed exchanges by Nixon
and Khrushchev during their pre
view tour created a tense atmos
phere, but everyone seemed more
relaxed once the fair opened.
Khrushchev showed little inter
est In the seven-screen panorama
of American life and the style
show featuring both Negroes and
whites. But the models of the lat
est American automobiles caught
his eye, and he spent some time
at this exhibit.
Nixon got his biggest ovation
since arriving in Moscow on leav
ing the grounds after Khrushchev
and other Soviet leaders had de
parted.
He spotted 'some Russians wait
ing outside an exit and strolled
over to talk with them. The crowd
grew to about 4,000, waving
cheering, and applauding.
Mrs. Nixon moved about chat
ting with youngsters and offering
them candies. One mother shout
ed: "Here's lo your health."
As the Nixon car moved slowly
away, ordinary Russians not
those among the distinguished in
vited first-day audience at the
fair swarmed around the limou
sine forcing it to slop.
Smiling broadly, Nixon got out
of the car and waved. The Rus
sians kept applauding as the car
moved on again.
There is a holiday atmosphere
.irouna tne fair grounds.
The Russians have planted (low
ers along (he esplanade leading
to the park. Old shacks have been
replaced by new buildings. Park
ing lots have been made avail
able. Ice cream vendors and bal
loon sellers are ready for a brisk
business.

By French Army In Algiers
ALGIERS IAP) - The French

continue for many weeks, if not
months.

lieves the future of the Algerian
war depends largely on the results
of the Kabylie offensive.

months before the fall session of
the United Nations, which is likely
to discuss the Algerian problem.

make a major effort to smash or
considerably reduce rebel military
resistance before the debate starts
An estimated 6,000 armed na

coast.

er the death of guerrilla chief Ait
Hamouda.
Past French efforts to smash
resistance in the area failed. Reb
