 ''We hope that the Soviet rulers will accept it," Dulles told approximately 5000 veter- ans at the opening session ot the American Legion's 37th an nual convention.
 If they do so, in good spirit, then we can confidently move on to international measures to reduce and control instru- ments of death" "
 But he warned Americans "do not propose to disarm our selves unless we can be sure that others are doing the same"
 Dulles outlined the United States position on disarrna- ment "a little more than two weeks before the opening of his talks with the Russian, British and French foreign ministers Oct. 27 at Geneva.
 It was at the recent "sun- nit" conference at Geneva that Eisenhower made his proposal to exchange ,blueprints and to allow the Soviet Union to fly planes over the United States - on a reciprocal basis. The Russians have not given final ives" or "no."
 Veterans of World Wars ] and II and the Korean war, colorfully attired in varied Le zion uniforms or summer sports clothes, heard Dulles state the nations hopes for a

DENVER (P) President Ei- senhower continued to progress satisfactorily today as he cheer fully resigned himself to long period of recovery and conval- essence, which may keep him out of the White House the rest of the year.
 ''The president had a very good nights sleep or more than eight hours" a ' a. m. medical bulletin said. ''TIis condition continues to progress satisfac- orily without complications"
 The prospects that he will ne tire at the end of his present term were heightened, however by expert medical opinion that 1t is impossible to say now whe- ther he will be physical able" to run again.
 While his progress from his heart attack of Sept. 24 has been satisfactory, and his mor ale is high. he has agreed to a decision of his doctors to keep him at Fitzsirnons army hospit- al for as long as the second week in November.

 The fire was brought cnder control within an hour. ''They must have a good fire depart ment," one observer comment ed, to get it under control sol fast"
 Many of the Elks had their tuxedoes at the cleaners to be pressed for the grand ball that night. Some were lost in the fire and others were damaged by smoke and water, Weeda reported.

Footprint Trips
Suspect In Theft

Ronnie Myers, Is, was in the
custody of Madison County police
officials as the result of a foot
print left at the scene of d crime.
Last Friday, the Arnvet Lodge
at Madison Lake was broken into
and $500 was removed from the
cash box there, after gaining entry
by breaking the rear window. Ed
Sheerin and Charles Brady discov-
cred the theft. Police officials dis
covered only one clue, a footprint.
Mr.. Molnar, of the Ohio Bureau of
Identification, was called in, and a
plaster cast taken of the print.
On Wednesday evening, police
officials picked up the suspect, and
his shoe matched the plaster print.
His arrest followed, and he viii be
charged with the theft, according
to police officials.
Myers had made previous raids
on the lodge, officials say, but was
not prosecuted due to his age.
