Dulles Assures US. Aid to Any
 Victim of Aggression in Middle East

WASHINGTON, R-Secretary of State Dulles emphatically re- asserted yesterday that the Unit ed States would give aid within constitutional limits to any victim of aggression in the crisis-ridden Middle East.
 The question of the US. posi- tion was raised at a news confer ence in connection with reports of impending Iraqi troop move ments into Jordan and consequent Iraeli nervousness about possible new fighting in the area.
 Syrian arms-which Dulles said could be Soviet or Western in or igin-are already moving into Jordan.
 Arab sources have said, and American officials support the explanation, that Jordan asked Iraqi troops to stabilize the gov ernment of King Hussein against collapse.
 Israel took the position, how ever, that entry of Iraqi troops would violate the l949 Palestine armistice and could lead to war.
 On other matters:
 l. In a statement, Dulles said that last weeks IN. Security Council discussion of the Suez Canal controversy had resulted in progress toward achieving just and peaceful solution of the Suez crisis"
 2. Dulles said he must reserve the right to edit the transcript of his news conferences. even to the extent of changing the substance of what he said if, following a conference, he finds he has blun- dered in a manner which might jeopardize US. foreign relations. He took this position in response to reporters questioning about past changes.
 3. Dulles expressed confidence, in the face of criticism from Dem ocratic candidate Adlai Steven

son, that the Eisenhower Admin istration will find a way to bring the hydrogen bomb under effec- tive control if such a way exists.
 Implying that Stevenson has not fully understood what he was talking about in pressing for an end of H-bomb tests, Dulles said he doubted whether anyone not fully acquainted with the details of the problem could know what the best possible solution is.

Stevenson's First Act as President Would Be to Get Together With
 Britain and Russia to Ban H Bomb

we should not stop our research. We should prepare ourselves so that if another country violated the agreement, we could promptly resume our testing program "A Waste of Money
 "The President even implied that the proposal would somehow reduce or curtail our power to de- fend ourselves. It would not. We would give up none of our stock pile. We would even add to it, as needed, from current production. We could continue to test smaller nuclear weapons. We should con- tinue our research and develop ment work on guided missiles, for the defense of our cities and for use in the field. :"
 Eisenhower said last April 25, four days after Stevenson first raised the issue, research with out test is perfectly useless, a waste of money"
 Third Party
 Meanwhile, in Richmond, Va, Monday night, shelter was of fered "for the orphaned members of both parties"
 T. Coleman Andrews, chief tax collector for the Eisenhower Ad- ministration for three years, for mally accepted third party presi- dential nomination from a group of states rights tax reform ad- herents. Andrews and his running mate, former Rep. Thomas H. Werdel of California, are on the same ballots in IA states, under various party labels.
 Andrews told 5000 enthusiastic supporters he didn't know how much his candidacy would detract from Eisenhower or Stevenson, but that it doesn't matter, and that i've would have a continua- ton of socialistic government" no matter which of the two major parties wins.

 longest tour of the current presi- dential campaign yesterday, per haps considering reply to Adlai Stevenson's latest assault on the administrations Hbomb policies. Stevenson told nationwide TV audience Monday night the the first thing he would do if elected President would be to get together with Russia and Britain on banning further testing of nu- clear super bombs
 The Democratic candidate de- nied claims of Eisenhower and other COP leaders that his pro posals for seeking an end to H. bomb tests threaten US. security.
 Most Dreadful Poison
 Stevenson said the tests unleash "the most dreadful poison in the world" (the atomic fallouD and ''may cause the human race un- measured damage" A way must be found to end this deadly dead lock-" he said.
 Eisenhower's campaign flight is a five-day vote-seeking foray, ex- banded Monday to include Cali fornia. The 5,850-mile itinerary calls for eight speeches in five western states.
 Asks Honest Judgment
 In filmed remarks, nationally telecast last night, Eisenhower made another campaign appeal, asking voters to make their choice on the basis of an "honest judg- ment" of the administration rec ord.
 Eisenhower said at a recent press conference he had said his Hast word" on Stevenson's pro- posals the military draft might be ended in the foreseeable future when national security permits, and that an effort be made to halt H-bomb testing
 Keeping the Record Straight
 But James Hagerty, the Presi- dents press secretary, said Mon day Eisenhower may have more to say on the subject anyway
 q am sure" Hagerty said, that if misstatements are made, par ticularly in connection with test ing, the President will feel he has a duty to keep the record straight"
 Assailing Eisenhower's views Monday night, Stevenson said a world in grave danger cannot af- ford a s'defeatist" approach and i've canot brush the hydrogen bomb under the rug this is one subject on which there can not be, there must not be, any last word"
 Criticisms Answered
 Taking issue point by point with criticisms by Eisenhower and other administration spokes- men, Stevenson said:
 "It is said that other countries might get the jump on us. The President implied that we would stop our research while others continued theirs. But I have made no such suggestion, and obviously

In Case Of Heart Attack

THE AMERICAN HEART Association
has given citizens some advice on what
to do in case you are the only person pre-
sent when another suffers a heart attack
Most of the advice constitutes things which
should not be done, but there are some
things which you can do.
First you should call doctor. of course
Then, you may help the patient take
position where he will find breathing
easiest. In addition, you can loosen tight
clothing.
You may also provide warmth cover or
extra clothing, if the patient is chilled
After that, there is not too much the
ordinary bystahder can do
He should not move the patient or give
him anything to drink until the doctor ar
rives.
The Heart Association has prepared a
booklet entitled Heart Attack" and it is
available to all those who would like to
learn the symptoms of a heart attack and
what can be, and should not be done. in

A Good Beginning

THE LONGWOOD GARDEN CLUB has
made good beginning toward roadside
Identification. With the cooperation of the
State Highway Department this club has
planted number of native trees and
shrubs dogwood, redbud, black haw white
pine, etc.,--on the highway between Farm
vile and Hampden- Sydney. The cuts have
been planted with grass and rock lilies We
trust this will be a demonstration area and
that it will encourage other communities
to beautity the roadside.
On a drive through Prince Edward
county Sunday we were impressed with
the number of dogwood and red bud which
have been left on the rOadways or in the
adjoining woods. These shrubs add much
to the beauty of the countryside. At only
one place did we see the results Of lit
