Churchill Says We Must Not Expect Immediate Success From Big 4 Talks

N LONDON, R m Sir Winston Churchill said Tuesday i've must not count upon complete and i'm mediate success" in the forthcom- ing Big Four conference at Gen eva.
 "A period of relaxation of ten sion may well be all that is now within our grasp" said the 8O- year-old retired prime minister.
 Even so, such a phase would not be sterile. On the contrary, it would give time for science to show the magnitude of her bless ings rather than all her terrors.
 Sir Winston spoke in the an cient Guildhall of the City of London, where a bronze statue of him was unveiled.
 Churchill, who had long plumped for a meeting of the Big Four heads of state, said.
 ''Whatever is the outcome, we must persevere in the mainte- nance of peace through strength. z Harking back to his own efforts for top level conference, Churchill said he had long thought a meeting between the leaders of the nations without the formalities of diplomacy would be a good thing. And then in tone of pride he added "This is now going to happen and we could have no one more capable of representing us than the present prime min ister."
 Prime Minister Eden was for eign secretary when Churchill first suggested meeting at the summit" in May 1853.

Rebelli0uS Democrats In House Block Presidents Military Reserve Measure

WASHINGTON, R-Rebellious members of the House Armed Services Committee Tuesday blocked quick action on a new military reserve bill and sent it back to a subcommittee for fur ther study.
 By a 16-14 vote the committee decided to give the subcommittee five days to work on the new version of President Eisenhower s "vital' reserve program. The vote came after subcommittee chairman Brooks O La) com plained his group was being by passed.
 Chairman Vinson D-Ga had urged the full committee to act today on compromise measure he is sponsoring. He said House leaders wanted to get it to the floor by Thursday.
 Eisenhower has called for pub lie support for strengthened re- serve which he said is necessary for the country's defense.
 Vinson called the committee together for action on his com promise, shorn of an anti-segre- gation feature and other contro- verSial elements.
 The House stalemated over an original measure which, in ex- banding the reserve, would per init assignment of reservists to under-strength National Guard units. The impasse came when the House voted to bar such assign ments to National Guard forces practicing racial segregation.

New Bookkeeping and Secretarial Service Is
 Epitome of MOdernity

The c. F. O'Dell Bookkeeping and Secretarial Service, formally opened in it's new location June 20, is one of the most modern.
 C. F. O'Dell Cor Charlie, as he is better known to his many friends has not yet received all of his office furniture and is hav- ing to use some that will later be disposed of. But, as the office is now furnished, it is very attrac- tive and everything in it is strictly utilitarian, from the calculator to the files. His desk, he states, is ultra modern.
 The outside of the building was painted white, trimmed in dark green, by MT. Howard Green. We understand that when Howard asked Charlie what shade of green he wanted the building trimmed in Charlie replied: Green, just live up to your name!" and evil dently Howard did a good job of of doing just that.
 Charities business hours are supposed to be from 200 pm. to 10:0O p.m., but 1t is reported he is usually seen working at his desk until midnight, or later. These hours are to better enable him to be available to all classes of peo- pie, the wage earner who works until five or later, as well as the businessmen of Nome.
