Russian Trade
Pressure Seen
BY EARL H. VOss
star stan Writer

BALTIMORE. Nd. Feb. T.
Heavier Soviet pressure to lift
American restrictions on trade
with the Communist bloc was
in prospect today with the ar
rival OF the new Soviet Amhas-
sador, Mikhail A. Menshikov.
The Russian economic spe-
cialist motored to Washington
last night after a flight from
Moscow to Friendship Airport
in the powerful sWept-wing JET
transport, TU-104A. proud SYM
Dol of Soviet chronological
achievement.
Protocol Chief Wiley Buch-
anan and the State Depart
ment's director Of East Euro
pean affairs, Edward L. Freers
greeted the Ambassador anc
his brunette wife. Evgeniya, as
they stepped down from the
plane. The meeting was dig
nified and smiling, but not en-
thuSiastic.
Soviet Diplomats on Hand
The Soviet charge d'affaires
Sergei Striganoy, and ranking
diplomats from the Polish,
Czech, Rumanian and Hun
Igarian missions in Washington
also were on hand. Their wives
lsmothered Mrs. Menshikov with
flowers.
i But no other Western diplo-
matte figures appeared.
/ Speaking briefly to newsmer
lat the Friendship Airport. Am
bassador Menshikov said he
wanted to stress" his hope fol-
Inormalized economic relations
between the United States anc
Russia in the NEAR future"

I vantageous trade

voy proclaimed himself as an

pledged himself to do my best

an atmosphere Of understand

tries" and mentioned hopefully

in cultural. technical and edu.
cational fields.
But the Ambassador made no
mention Of disarmament prob
lens that separate his country
and the United States.
Offers Credentials Soon
There was speculation that
Mr.. Menshikov may be carrying
some new communication from
his government on the prospects
for holding an East West sum-
INIT meeting. He expected to
call on Secretary Of State Dulles
briefly today and win present
This credentials to President Eli
senhower soon.
Ambassador Menshikoy re-
called he had spent three years
i in Washington after World War
II and that gave me an oppor-
tunity to acQuaint myself with
your great country" its industry
and its enterprise and the "tal-
ented and energetic American
people whom ! deeply respect. "
Prospects are that the OPEN
ing phase of East-West nego-
tiation toward a second sum-
init meeting is now under way.
Thompson Leaving Today
The United States Ambas-
sador in Moscow. Llewellyn
Thompson. has been I'M WASH
ington consulting with Secre-
ltary Dulles and President
Eisenhower. He leaves WASH
ington today and expects to
reach Moscow early next week.
Soon after his arrival he is
expected to call on Soviet
Foreign Minister Andrea Gro
myko for further discussion Of
what subjects could probably
be brought to another summit
meeting. ~
Disarmament is considered
the most likely area in WASH
ington, but Ambassador Men
shikov gave this idea little
encouragement in his first pub
lie statement here yesterday.

William E. Maloney, $4,000
since 1910, quit yesterday under
fire Of congressional and labor
criticism. giving i'll health as
his reason.
In a brief interim report to
the AFL-CIO Executive Coun-
Gil. the Ethical Practices Com
mittee said full investigation of
the Operating Engineers is re-
quired.
At the same time the COM
nittee notified the council of
its intention to investigate the
International Jewelry Workers
Union. which has been charged
with numerous abuses against
its own members.
Resignation a Surprise
The resignation of Maloney
came as q surprise when it was
announced by Joseph j. De-
laney, international secretary
treasurer of the 250.000-man
Operating Engineers. Mr.. De-
laney said he would take over
as acting president in accord
ance with the unions consti-
tuition.
At the same time he an
nounced he win run for the
presidency.
The future intentions of the
Operating Engineers leader
ship were q matter of much
skepticism here. but Maloney's
resignation was regarded as
giving the beleaguered union
some valuable time.
Prior to Maloney's with
drawal, many persons believed
expulsion of the union from
the AFL-CIO was likely. Now.
it was felt, the labor federation
could in good conscience wait
q little while for change in
the Operating Engineers way
Of doing business.
Charges Not Detailed
The Ethical Practices Com
mittee's report on the jewelry
workers was curt, and made no
mention Of the nature of
charges against that union.
One of the most serious ac-
cusationS against the jewelry
workers, from a trade union
point of view, concern the for
mutation Of so-called sweet
heart" contracts involving
Puerto Rican workers.
In resigning, Mr.. Maloney
said he feared the strain would
kill him If he remained active
in the union business. Long q
cardiac case. he has been In

Mr.. Delaney gave top priority
to the correction Of an abuse
made public in the Senate

MacMillan Feels World Peace Can Be Made Little By Little"

BALTIMORE, LR - British Prime Minister Harold MacMil- Ian called Tuesday for a start toward building world peace through a little by little" ap- proach to discarding all big weapons atomic and others.
 MacMillan's speech was deliv- cred at commencement exercises at Johns Hopkins University where President Eisenhower in troduced him as "a great free world leader" Both were given honorary degrees by the school
 MacMillan said the Western world alliance has served it's purpose well and must be con- tinued as a shield against Commu- mist aggression.
 But I am not without hope" he said, 'that we may succeed little by little, if not all at once, in making some progress toward the relaxation of tensions"
 MacMillan said it would be foolish to expect any Summit meeting to bridge the gap be- tween East and West.
 He added, however, that If conditions are favorable, and if the will is there they might make, first, little progress here, and then little there and so bring us out of condition of stalemate into one of negotiation"
 But he said it can be done 'only if both sides are willing. We on our side certainly are willingly"

Mostest & Bestest
Modern Alaska Travel Talk
By Pacific Northwest Airlines

B6SlQ6S OOdSIlIlS Ol IIIS U1S- gest mountains, greatest tides, longest coastline, and when statehood comes-being the larg- est state,- e,-Alaska is also the most air minded, it's people the most talkative, and the citizens of it's largest city owners of more automobiles per capita than any spot on the globe. 2
 Most Phone Calls
 Alaskans by nature are friend ly and talkative and as a result make more telephone calls than any other peoples in the world, according to the American Tele- phone and Telegraph Co.,, aver aging 63O calls per person per year. The second most talka- tive group, the Hawaiians, make an average of 531 calls each per year. The United States aver age is "only' 426. The world average is 51 calls per person.
 Like To Fly
 Next to talking, Alaskans like to fly, as is well illustrated by the fact that Pacific Northern alone, during 12-month period, boarded or deplaned TOPS pas sengers, or nine times the total population of the town of Kenai at that community's airport. At Yakutat, a community of 300 persons, 2199 passengers or seven times the population, arrived or departed by PIMA aircraft dur the 12-month period Kodiak, with a population of 2500 handled 15,182 passengers, or six times the population.
 The two airports at Anchorage, the Territory's largest city, have combined operation Landings and takeoffs) greater than any of Americas cities except New York GaGuardia and Idlewild airports) and Chicago (O'Hare and Midway, according to the Civil Aeronautics Administration figures
 More Automobiles
 Automobiles, too, are of inn portance to travel-conscious Alas kans with Anchorage having the largest per-capita ownership of cars in the world, according to the city manager of that city, with one car for every 2.1 per sons, including children. Los An geles is second with one vehicle for each 2.2 persons.
 Although Alaska's population figures might have to be stretched a bit to bring them to the quarter-million mark, Alaska is the fastest growing area (state or territory under the American flag, boasting of an increase of TIA percent for the last 10-year census period. Cali fornia is second with 53.3 per cent increase.
 Highest Mountain
 It has the highest mountain on the North American continent, Mt. Mckinley which towers 20,32O feet into the sky, rising from a plain that is only 20OQ-30OO feet above sea-level, making it the largest and most spectacular sin gle mountain mass in the world
 Biggest Glacier
 Besides it's mountains, Alaska is a land of sunshine and ever greens, but also a land of many glaciers. Largest is Malaspina, which covers 1,5OO square miles, an area larger than the State of Rhode Island. Most colorful and spectacular of the Territory's glaciers are located in Glacier Bay area in Southeastern Alaska. Some are dormant, while others

Story

We wish to congratulate you
upon the article which was pub
lished in your Thursday, July 10
edition concerning the major ac-
complishments of the Washington
Suburban Sanitary Commission
between January /, 1851, and
January /, 1858.
Everyone in the home building
industry has been aware of the
prodigious accomplishments of
the Sanitary Commission during
these past hectic seven years
when Montgomery and Prince
Georges Counties were mush-
rooming with housing develop
ments and shopping centers. The
Commissioners and the staff of
the Sanitary Commission should
be highly congratulated and it's
we'll that you have taken a first
step in acquainting the general
public with the fine work that
they have done.

Apology Is Owed

l must raise my voice in pro-
test of the Wick Byron column
in your issue of July "a, 1858.
This is most certainly the type of
Journalism tn a Montgomery
County can well do without. 1
cannot believe that Mr.. Byron in
tended to deride our police force,
but his article certainly seemed
derisive to me.
Certainly Officer Crabb is not
the one to reverse the decisions
of his superiors, and to grant
immunity to anyone driving a
Lincoln automobile, as Mr.. Byron
suggests. AS for the difference
in speed as reported by Officer
Crabb, and the driver of the auto
mobile, you have only to spend
a few minutes in traffic court to
find out that 95 percent of the
defendants appearing were ex-
ceeding the limit by only two
miles an hour"
/ also find it hard to believe,
as Mr.. Byron suggests, that the
Montgomery County police force
is ION the watch for official
cars driving through the beauti-
full countryside of this fair
county"
Official cars should obey the
same laws that unofficial cars
are compelled to comply with.
shall scan your next issue in
vain, fear, for the apology you
certainly owe Officer Crabb, and
the entire Montgomery County
police force.

Era of the Fin

A most of us know by this time, the cost
~ OF our automobile insurance has risen.
One of the reasons for the rise, according
to two large national insurance underwriting
firms in Maryland, is the higher cost of re-
pairing today's automobiles.
Insurance officials point to wrap around
windshields and rear windows, multiple light
ing units, bumpers that are more ornamental
than functional, soaring tail fin assemblies
and welded body seams as reasons for high
repair costs.
Surely the high cost of labor must also
be figured in repair work But it stands to
reason that mechanic earning $3.50 an
hour and that's a low estimate = could
repair simple bolton fender, minus tail fin,
chrome shanks, lighting turrets fender
skirts, ct al more cheaply than the tenders
on modern American car.
The ends to which Detroit car designers
have gone in identifying the American
car are, IN some cases, almost nonsensical.
Some cars bear such useful items as twin
hood spears which could serve to skewer hap
less pedestrians and thus keep them from
falling under the wheels.
The candle power of some cars tail
lights are so bright in some situations that
tIley constitute hazard to the following
motorists because of their brightness.
And if those rear fender tail fins act as
stabllizing agents, as their manufacturers
claim, why don't 100-mile-an-hour race cars
use them?
Study the next modern Rolls Royce or
Bentley you see. These English cars are ac-
cepted by the world as the height of auto
motive beauty. They have class with
capital &C" Note the sparing use of chrome,
the single headlights and functional tail
lights, uncortorted body lines, simpler wind
shields that don't require a mortgage to
repair.
What happened to the hand operated
choke and throttle to gauges that showed
figures not pretty lights? To bumpers that
could stand more than parking lot nudging?
To spark plugs which, because of their place.
mcnt, could be changed without third degree
burns to the hands? To cars that one could
drive, instead of just guide? To cars that
things don't fall off of two weeks after you
buy them new And tenders that you couldn't
dent with moderately hard press OF your
thumb

Yineer Column

/ would like very much to con-
tradict the Roy Lee Yinger col
umn in the Sentinel of July "a,

He will find the answer in the
Montrose Baptist Church, Ran

l challenge him TO attend this
church for just one service and
say that those in attendance have
not come to receive inspiration.
The Church" is the people, not
the building itself. and we have.
after 20 years of searching found
a church of people dedicated to
the Lord.
In our church the organ is in.
spring because the well-filled
choir is not paid and sing to the
glory of God and without thought
of their own glory.
AS for preachers working only
for financial benefits our preach
er is IS years old, supports a
wife and two children on $500 a
month which salary has not been
increased since he came two
years ago. Twenty percent of his
salary is given back to the Lord S

II believe" that no doubt those
who ask why you don't go to
church wonder at the loss of so
great potential as you have to
offer the Church of our Lord
Jesus Christ.
If indeed you fail to receive
any inspiration, it is because the
church you attend is not a Christ
preaching church or because you,
as an individual, do not give to
it enough to receive much in re-
turn, for that, Mr. Yinger, is
fact beyond our comprehension.
The more we give of ourselves
the more inspiration we re-
ceive.
Yes, Christian goes to church
to commune spiritually with his
Lord and Savior. He cannot
"close his eyes to shut out the
imposter who sits beside him"
Rather, he must open his eyes
and take the imposter's life into
his, very own, there to pray for
him, and later to pray with him,
that where there was one now
there may be two.
Where is the inspiration? No,
it is not in the organ, nor in
the singing, nor in the furnish
ings. 1t comes from deep within
the living souls of those devoted
Christians who worship with you,
for THERE is the living church,
in the soul of man.
Mr.. Yinger, do not hide your
light under a bushel in the great
out-of-doors as an introvert. Find
a Christ preaching church and
GIVE, give all of your talents
as a writer, lecturer, teacher,
serving under the guidance of
Gods Holy Spirit and receive the
inspiration that will flow through
you like a river of living water,
that where there was one, there
may be two, three, or a dozen.
