Soviet TU-lO4 Jet Afraid to Fly Over The US.

WASHINGTON, LR = The U. s. Air Force dismissed as "a fig ment of somebody's imagination" today a report a Soviet airliner, visiting in Canada, could not make a planned flight because of the possibility of interception by U. s. fighters.
 It said the Russian visitors never officially evidenced any desirea to fly from Sea Island air port, Vancouver, to Victoria, British Columbia-a trip that might have touched on U. s. air space.
 In answer to an inquiry, an Air Force Spokesman said the TU-1O4 jet airliner could have filed an intended flight plan with the Civil Aeronautics Admins tration but did not.
 The plane, biggest attraction at Centennial Air Show, was sched- uled to fly 75 miles from Sea Island Airport to Victoria.
 It flew instead in the greater Vancouver area after Royal Ca nadian Air Force officials said they had been unable to gain assurances from the U. s. Air Force that the Soviet aircraft would not be challenged by U. S. fighters should it cross the inter national boundary.
 A spokesman for the U. s. Air Defense Command at McChord Air Force Base near Tacoma, Wash, said he had no knowledge of the TU-1O4's proposed flight.
 He said any plane that filed an approved flight plan with the Civil Aeronautics Administration as approaching U. s. territory would not be challenged.
 'We challenge only those air craft that cannot be identified ? the spokesman added.

Southern Senators Predict Statehood For Alaska Will Induce New Members To Support All Handout Proposals

would be induced to support all other handodt proposals to get federal handouts for Alaska"
 Robertson said the compara- lively small population of Alaska is another argument against granting statehood.
 At the present time the popu- lation including the military, is just a little more than one third that of a normal congressional district" he said. "The white population in Alaska, excluding the military, is about that of Roanoke City"
 Delegate E. L. Bartlett said supporters of Alaska statehood contend Alaskans can support a state government and are ready to tax themselves to do so.
 Concerning added government spending, Bartlett said what Alas kan senators may do remains for the future to determine.
 However, I'd be inclined to agree that they would vote by and large with the western group of senators. Some may contend this is too much government spend ing, others will say it is spend ing for the development of re- SOurceS.'

Pied Piper
 To Open The Festival Parade
Once Upon A Time" Parade

Once Upon "A Time" Parade
 Nome's first Midnight Sun Fes- tival will be officially opened at 2 pm. Friday June. 20 to the strains of "The Pied Piper"
 At that signal the young in heart will pick up a favorite toy or pet and hasten to follow the Piper as of yore.
 It is expected that Little Boy Blue, Jack and Jill, Little Miss Muffet,. Little Jack Horner, Lit tie Bo Peep and all the others will be there.
 The not-so-young but still hap py-hearted may be seen as Moth CT Goose, The Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe, the Wicked Old Witch or in many other ways perhaps clowns from some far, far away circus may hear the music of the Pied Piper and join in the parade. Of course witches should know that strange things may happen to them on such a day.
 There will be prizes for gay est costume, for the most inter esting pet, the most original toy, for the happiest smile, and for the Wandering Minstrel who most pleases the children. So if you can play the comb, harmon ica,, guitar or any otherinstru- ment, bring it along.
 Although the parade starts at the School grounds, the Pied Piper will welcome any of the children along the way which will be down B street and across Front Street. The small children may prefer to join in in front of the Polaris-any place along the way says the Pied Piper.

Presidential Aide Adams Under Fire

willful the Federal Trade Com mission can prosecute criminally in the courts and, if there is a conviction the penalties can run up to $5,O00 fine and years inn prisonment.
 Later Goldfine and some of his mills were involved in other charges of alleged mislabeling. This resulted in a "cease and de- sist" order, to which Goldfine and the companies consented, though admitting no wrong-doing.
 While the House Subcommittee headed by Rep. Oren Harris O- ArD received today's testimony, White House press secretary Hagarty told a news conference he had no information that Gold fine ever offered President Eisen- hover a suit of clothes.
 The question came up when reporter Sarah McLendon said her newspaper has information that Goldfine likes to make gifts of clothes to his friends and has given. suits to some members of the White House staff land probably offered one" to Eisen- hover.

WASHINGTON, R - House investigators produced evidence today that industrialist Bernard Goldfine paid bills for Sherman Adams at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York at about the time a government agency was closing out a case against Gold fine
 Adams is President Eisen- hower's No. aide. The Waldorf bills for Adams and Mrs Adams came to $267.05.
 They were run up at the plush New York hotel in January and February 1854.
 In the same period, investigator Francis x. Mclaughlin told a House Subcommittee, the Federal Trade Commission was settling a complaint against Goldfine's Northfield Mills.
 A Goldfine textile company promised it would halt alleged mislabeling of certain cloth, and that the matter was closed on that basis.
 The law provides various all formative actions in cases of charges of mislabeling. One is an agreement not to- do it again. In cases of violations considered

 Congratulated For Courtesy In Debate

 He did so by calling attention to what Australians have been doing. Goldwater said the Aus sic House of Representatives re- gently adopted a new code on debate which will prevent mem bers from calling each other "such names as assassin, cad, blood-drinker, cur, miserable body-snatcher, sewer rat, gas-bug, ignoramus, political Montreal, la dog, or slimy reptile"

WASHINGTON, LR - Virgin ia's senators predicted today that statehood for Alaska would loosen Uncle Sam's purse strings.
 Both Sen. Harry F. Byrd and Sen. A. Willis Robertson. Demo- crats, said they will oppose leg islation to admit the big territory as the 18th state.
 The bill, which passed the House May 28 by a vote of POS to 166, may come up for Senate consideration next week.
 Byrd said he believes Alaska is not only unable to support a state government but that the two additional votes from Alas kan senators might tip the bal ance toward more government spending.
 ''For the last few years there have been close voting between the radical and conservative spenders," Byrd said '|The> two Alaska senators might have the controlling votes"
 A similar view was expressed by Robertson in a separate in terview.
 Since Alaska would have to be heavily subsidized" Robertson said, "the two Alaskan senators

Tito Defends
 Acceptance Of Aid From US.

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, R- President Tito and the Soviet bloc swapped broadside yester- day. Tito defended his accep- tance of U. s. aid, and Peiping radio compared him to Judas Is- cariot for taking American help.
 Tito asked crowd of 5O,OOO in the coal mining town of Labin what right Nikita Khrushchev had to attack Yugoslavia for getting U. s. aid when the Soviet Premier himself was soliciting credit from Washington.
 The Yuvoslav President said American aid had been sent to his country after his break with Stalin in 1949 'sbecause hunger threatened here and in order to help us protect our independence against Stalin."
 Yugoslavia needs American wheat, cotton, fats and other products, and 'the American wheat is no worse than the Russian, which we do not re- ceive," he continued.
 The Yugoslav leader said Khrushchev's attack on his in dependent brand of Communism ''insulted not only the Yugo- slav leadership but the Yugo- slav people, too we will re- main faithful to our principles and stick to our just road"

SeasOn-LOng Growth
The slow-acting. nonburning
fertilizers are most valuable for
use on the lawn, but they are
also useful for surface feeding
of plants with a season-long
growth.
The chief advantage Of these
fertilizers is that they feed the
plants at a fairly steady rate Of
growth.
This is of greatest impor:
lance on the lawn.
However, many will use them
because they can be applied
without danger of burning the
foliage, thus saving the time
and effort necessary to wash
the material of of the foliage.
Because of their slow and
steady action we may safely
use from IS to IS pounds per
1000 square feet of area. The
lighter rate means a lighter
