in Baghdad. The Army chief
Of staff. Ahmed Saleh Abdi,
was appointed military gover-
nor general of the nation.
Amman radio announced
that Jordan's 23-year-old King
Hussein, Hashemite cousin Of
King Faisal, had assumed
power as head of the Jordan
Iraq Federation and would att
tempt to restore public security
and order. King Hussein acted
after a long cabinet meeting
in Amman. The constitution
OF the new Jordan-Iraqi Fed
Grafton provided that he should
succeed King Faisal if the
latter should die or abdicate.
Also Heads Armed Forces
A palace communique said
King Hussein also has taken
over as commander in-chief of
the Arab army and all armed
forces of the Arab Union.
King HuSsein'S first decree
was to appoint 1t. Gen. Habis
Majali as Arab army chief of
staff. Gen. Majali replaces 1t.
Gen. Rafiq Aaref, who is re-
ported to have been put on
pension by leaders of the coup
In Baghdad who overthrew
King Faisal.
King Hussein, addressing his
people by radio, asked that re-
ports concerning the fate of
certain members of the royal
family in Iraq be treated with
reservation. There was no clear
. reservation. There was no, clear
King Faisal.
Observers saw little hope
King HusSein could hold the
federation together in the face
of a successful Iraqi revolution,
but theoretically he could call
upon the armies of the fedora
ton to subdue the rebels and
could call upon the West for
help.
Cairo's Middle East News
Agency said the Iraqi revolu-
tionaries had ordered Iraqi
forces in Lebanon to join the
Lebanese rebels, and had in
structed Iraqi pilots in Lebanon
to report to rebel-controlled
airports. Lebanon's rebels have
contended there were Iraqi
soldiers here aiding the Leban-
eSe government.
The United States Embassy
urged the 1000 Americans in
Lebanon to take special pre-
cautions until the situation in
Iraq is clarified. The embassy
statement said the Iraqi coup
may have repercuSsions in
Lebanon.
Rebels Hold Baghdad Radio
There were no reports to
bear out Cairo claims that the
revolt had spread to Jordan,
ssand there was no clear-cut in
dication whether the rebel
leaders had established effec-
tive control throughout Iraqs
All that was known for GER
tain was that the Baghdad
radio was in the hands Of the
revolutionary leaders.
King Faisal and Mr.. Nuri
had been scheduled to fly to
Istanbul today for a meeting
of the Asian members of the
Baghdad Pact.
AS one of their first actions
the coup leaders announced
recognition of the UAR,
which King Faisal and Mr..
Nuri said previously had re-
fused to extend.
The coup, If successful. would
be a stunning blow to the West,
1t would knock a key pir-Iraq

Russian Dance Troupe Scores Big Hit At Metropolitan Opera House

NEW YORK, lR m The Noise yev Dance Company from Mos COW, the first dance troupe to reach the United States under a new American-Soviet cultural ex- change agreement, scored re- sounding triumph at the Metro politan Opera House Monday night.
 The troupe of nearly 100 danc- CTS, the largest Soviet attraction ever sent here, offered l3 folk numbers, which had a constant element of humor.
 An audience of about $500 per sons applauded, laughed, whistled, yelled bravo" and applauded some more
 The Russians, in turn, partic- ularly the girls, applauded their American hosts.
 M.ikhail Menshikov, Soviet Ann bassador to Washington, and Ar kady Sobolev, Ambassador to the United Nations, were the ranking diplomats present.
 Unprecedented crowds-police said 1,5OO persons-gathered at the stage door to cheer the danc- CTS after their performance.
 w. G. Rogers, Associated Press arts editor, said in his review:
 "This isn't ballet, it isn't really dance, it is pure rollicking fun '
 "The dancers moved across the stage in great irresistible rushes, they stamped, thumped, skipped, ran, hopped, galloped and trotted. They did the most extraordinary pirouettes, they clowned, bur lesqued and ridiculed, and they, too, had a hilarious time"
 John Martin wrote in the New York Times: "It was a great night . and nobody who was there is likely to forget very soon let us risk understate- ment and call it the performance) merely stupendous .''

DO YOU WANT LOWER POWER RATES?

There is movement contemplated for the sep arang of the offices of the telephone and the power company offices.
 For fifty years the community has benefited by the sharing of office space expenses equipment and staff of these businesses
 As we it, Nome has not grown to such an extent that the added expense of separate maintenance is warranted at this time.
 Those urging this change may have good req for doing this but it that if the ctyowned power company has money enough to increase the annual cost of operation by several thousand dollars just have two separate offices would be better give the taxpayers the benefit of this expenditure in lower rates.
 Larger communities work toward consolidation of utilities rather than separation thereby using the staff costly bookkeeping machines, heat, rent etc. as matter of justfiable economy.
 We would welcome comment by others in the community on the subject

 Senate Republican leader Know land of California reported the Presidents position on that con- troversial matter after the lead CTS regular weekly meeting with Eisenhower.

 That message outlined the Presidents plan for reorganiza- ton of the military establish ment. When is was sent to the capitol Presidential aide told a news conference the impact of the plan would be to give the Secretary of Defense complete
