PAGE TWO BULLETINS (Continued from pace one) S. Terry, 73, Black Mountain, N. C., and Miss Helena Mur phy; 56, County Kerry, Ireland. FORT STOCRTpN, Tex. (IP) A cold front that col lided with a warm air mass and stirred up at least four Texas tornadoes brought rain in scattered parts of the country today, including drought parched West Texas. Only one of the tornadoes yesterday one of two at Fort Stockton, touched grouqd. It unroofed two farm houses and caused other minor damage. , SEOUL, Korea (IP) Thousands of life-savings armor ed vests, which sharply reduced casualties during the Ko rean War, have been flown to Indochina, an informed source said today. The vests have been airlifted to the Southeast Asia battleground. About 9,000 of the nylon vests have been given to the French, the source said. TOKYO (IP) Radio Moscow said today the Soviet del egation to the Geneva conference, headed by Foreign Min ister V. M. Molotov, would include Vice Foreign Ministers Andrei Gromyko and V. V. Kuznetzov. Other principals beside Molotov and his deputies included the Soviet am bassadors to Red China, United States, France and North Korea and chiefs of the Far Eastern, United States, South aast Asia bureaus and press section of the foreign Offifce, the monitored broadcast said. RALEfGH (IP) Voters in the state are “fed up with the ‘attack and smear’ technique and all unethical cam paign devices, including unsigned leaflets,” Terry Sanford, state campaign manager for senatorial candidate W. Kerr Scott, said yesterday. With the May 29 Democratic pri mary drawing nearer, he said, “it is very important that all voters become familiar with the views, principles and qualifications of those seeking l public office.” FT. BRAGG, N. C. (IP The Army moved ground troops into position today for its first atomic war games in a gigantic maneuver in which 1.000 men may be hos pitalized with make-believe A-bomb injuries. More than 100,000 soldiers and airmen are testing tactics fbr new sti ver-bombs, germ warfare, guided missiles, radiological fighting, psychological warfare, guerrilla action and sur vival training on a vest “front.” .NEW DELHI, India UP) Rrime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru today barred U. S. airlift planes from flying oyer India with French commandos destined for battle at Dien Bien Phu. Shortly after Nehru’s ban was made known, U. S. Air Force authorities conferred at Wiesbaden, Ger many, where it was announced Wednesday that the 8,500- mile Paris-to-Indochina airlift was in progress. AUGUSTA, Ga, UP) President Eisenhower interrupts his vacation and flies north today for a major speech de signed to allay world fears that this country might use the 1 hydrogen bomb. Mr. EisenhoWer will speak at 9 p. m. EST., to the American Newspaper Publishers Association at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York City. WASHINGTON UP) Sen. Homer E. Capehart tod»y suggested the “blacklisting” from the federal housing pro gram apartment builders who reaped “windfall” profits from excessive government-backed loans. The Indiana Re publican, chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, al so proposed that builders be required to turn back imme diately any part of a government-insured loan that ex ceeded the cost of the project for which it was borrowed. WASHINGTON UP) The government’s price index was expected to show another slight dip in March becaqse of reductions in the cost of food and other items. The Bu reau of Labor Statistics was scheduled to issue its month ly consumer price index today showing the- change in prices of goods bought by most city families betwen mid- February and mid-March. WASHINGTON UP) Defense Secretary Charles E. Wilson said night the administration’s “new look” defense policy is designed to “deter both a major War ahd local aggressioh.” In his first semi-annual report since adoption of the “new look,” Wilson served blunt warning to would-be aggressors that “the mounting retal iatory capability of our air units gives full warning to any aggressor of the possible consequences of rash actions on hrs part.” WASHINGTON (UP) There is some disagreement amdng the experts over whether congressional imniunity applies to the kind of sworn testimony there will be in the Army-McCarthy hearings. At least one top government lawyer said he believes congressional immunity would not protect Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy against possible perjury action in the case of an alleged false statement under oath. ' Record |: rorunrt TO THfc EDITOR Chief Ralph E. Hanna, the offl- , cers and members of The Dunn Fire Department . Inc. wish to take this opportu inity to express their gratitude for the valuable assistance which wax rendered last Friday eve- < ning at the .disastrous fire on South Clinton Avenue by the Explorers • Scouts, the Auxiliary Firemen and other volunteer help, which con- !' sisted of those employed nearby and several persons which just 'hap pened upon .the scene. Without this help, we feel that the situation would have resulted <n a different ■ atid more Unfortunate ending. From the bottom of bur hearts, we thank all of you. We also appreciate ladies and brought ice wa hours Nj We'think the officers, highway patrolmen; scouts and others who handled the traffic did‘a splendid upon controlling the situation so 1 well. The crowds that gathered were witness a fire. As well as being a costly fire, this was one of the most dangerous •we have ever encountered. Through Intense heat, explosions, falling brick walls, flying glass, hot, descending embers and dense smoke, no one was seriously hurt. Several escaped with only minor injuries. We know that God was with us and surely his guiding hand saw us through and kept us from great harm. We also would not forget to men tion the wonderful service perform ed by our Chaplain. Rev. Bane T. Underwood. He was ever at our side and remained with us until the' very last. He did so many, many things that helped us and made it easier for us to carry on. We' will never cease to remember you, Mr. Underwpod, and we certainly think you are a very valuable ad dition to our department. We appreciate the means you have afforded us to express toe above, and with every gobd wish, we are, MRS CAM’ N ±ni7 : 'll "T ‘ 'Jill jjL n k|i f.s l'j tA %- pt? |y§! m I ‘ m I APPRECIATIVE SMILES On Tuesday LH lington Presbyterians greeted guests for the stated Spring session of the Fayetteville Presbytery with a newly decorated sanctuary, a fine new educa tional building, and a modern kitchen and din ing hall just completed in the basement.
