The Disaster Medical Care

that conclusion yesterday.
DR.. Carruth j. Wagner, head

an individuals ability to sur

Everyone should know how
to perform life saving measures
to stop bleeding, give artificial

DR.. Wagner said. People must
also know how to assure them
selves and their families of safe
water and food supplies, gen.

Mr.. Khrushchev said "the
world is now entering the phase
of negotiations" and added:
"By no means all difficulties in
the road to understanding have
been removed but the barometer
is moving toward faip weather
though more slowly than the
Soviet Union would like.
Systematic, active and
peace-loving actions by gov

fair weather to all"
Sees Good in U. S. Visits
Mr.. Khrushchev told the
Legislators he felt progress to-
ward relaxation of tension had
been made in his talks with
President Eisenhower.
And, he said. the visits to the
United States of Soviet Deputy
Premiers Anastas Mikoyan and
Frol KoSlov and the United
States exhibition in Moscow
had "all helped to crack the
curse of the cold war"
British Prime Minister Har-
old Macmillan's trip to Moscow
early this year helped clear
British-Soviet relations, he
said, and he added that his
own forthcoming meeting with
French President de Gaulle
would be useful to Soviet
French relations.
But Mr.. Khrushchev empha-
sized that the Soviet Union did
not hide the fact that it SYM
Ipathized with the Algerians.
He predicted a settlement of
the rebellion in the North Af-
rican territory would raise the
role played by France in inter-

Speaking after Mr.. Khru-

Gromyko said the Premier's
visit to the United States PRO
vides a safe foundation for the

"Of course" Mr.. Gromyko
told the Supreme Soviet, "it

all the complicated issues
which have piled up as result
Of the cold war, some Of which
60 back to the end Of World
War II. could be resolved at one
sitting.
1T takes time. They should
be settled one by one beginning
with the most urgent ones"
Mr.. Khrushchev, in his wide
ranging speech. dwelt on the
easing of tension which he
attributed largely to countries
Of the Communist camp.
He said there are still ten
sions around the world-in the
Middle East, Near East, Far
East and Europe-but they
were not as bad as they were.
Hits Big Stick Policy
Mr.. Khrushchev said the
Soviet Unions line was to les
sen international tension, miti-
gate the cold war and console
date peace among the people.
He said the situation used to
be so tense that a spark would
have touched off worldwide
fire.
The "big stick" policy was
pursued by some circles and
some governments, he said.
Some called it a policy of
liberation, others called it
"rollback," while others called
it a policy Of "ousting," he
said. but in fact it was all one.
Take liberation for instance,
he said. adding the Commu-
mist nations have never asked
and will never ask for it, not
a single free nation wants a
handful of people to govern it.
This policy, he said, means a
continuous arms race, and a
stockpiling of nuclear weapons.
Mr.. Khrushchev's speech was
largely a review of policies he
has laid down before. He de-
clared the tensions were easing
around the world primarily be-
cause Of two reasons:
l. The growing might and
influence Of the Soviet Union
and its allies.
2. The growing influence of
countries newly liberated from
colonialiSm.
Shows Fear Of A-War
Even within the capitalist
countries themselves the forces
of peace are becoming a mighty
factor" he declared. "The re-
alization is dawning upon ever
broadening circles that nuclear
war poses a deadly threat to-
all, especially to those who
start it."
Among other points he made
were these:
He called disarmament the
most important problem of the
present day and on it's settle
ment depends whether there
will be war or peace.
He praised French President
de Gaulle and Premier Michael
Debre for their views on the in
volatility of the frontier be-
tween Poland and East Ger
many and said this was with
out any doubt an important
contribution to the cause of
peace"
This frontier, which includes
SileSia, East Prussia and other
former German territories in
present-day Poland, has been
a matter Of dispute since the
end Of World War II.
The Western position has
been that they are being ad-
ministered by Poland pending

$4,000 Paid
For Quiz Spot,
Merchant Says

(AP).-Max Hess, the owner of
q large department store, said
last night that he paid $4,000
to help get a former employe
on the television quiz show,
1854, 900 Question"
He explained this to a reporter
in revealing that he had been
subpoenaed to appear Monday
before a House subcommittee
investigating the rigging Of quiz
shows.
1T was worth every cent of
the money" said Mr.. Hess, who
is president of Hess Brothers
Department Store, because it
lproved to be a highly talked

lthe public eye on Hess Brothers
and the city of Allentown"

Mr.. Hess said he was sub
Ipoenaed to appear before the
Legislative Oversight Subcom-
mittee to explain the role he
played in getting Kenneth Hof-
fer on the quiz show.
Mr.. Hoffer of Reading ap-
peared once on the Columbia
Broadcasting System quiz show,
in August, 1855. He missed his
third question-for $512-and
went home without a, nickel's
winnings.
This didn't bother u.s." ex-
planned Mr.. Hess, because the
young man was eager to appear
on the program and attempt
to win on his own merits, and
as far as we were concerned
we had achieved our goal-to
once again expose the name
of Hess Brothers and the city
of Allentown to millions of
people"
Sequence of Events
Mr.. Hess gave this sequence
of events:
Mr.. Hoffer, a former buyer
for the department store. had
attempted to get on the "$64,-
900 Question" by writing letters
of application. The letters went
unanswered. Finally, through
another Hess employe, David
Gottlieb of Allentown contact
was made. Mr.. Gottlieb said
he learned that 1t would cost
$4,000 in cash to make ar
rangements for Mr.. Hoffer's
appearance.
Mr.. Hess said he gave the
money to Mr.. Gottlieb-$5, 900
in advance, $4,000 after Mr..
Hoffer's appearance-but never
knew who got the money after
that.
GOttlieb Admits Part
Mr.. Gottlieb, a furniture
buyer for Mr.. Hess until 18
months ago. said he "acted
strictly on the orders of Mr.
Hess in every step Of the way"
adding:
II was told this was a plain
and simple business transaction
to get someone on the show.
I did not make the original
contact with the producers of
the show, $4,000 Question, nor
did I have anything to do with
the final financial arrange
mentS that were made.
But I did pay the money,
which Mr.. Hess gave me, to a
representative of the show.
And Mr.. Hess knew to whom !
was delivering the money"
MI. Gottlieb declined to
identify the person who re-
ceived "the fee," pointing out
that he wanted to clear the in

gator of he congressional COM
