Earlier, Mr.. KhruShchev ate
his first American hot dog and
sounded a summit call for reg

The Red leader declared
soberly that the thing which
has impressed him most on his
visit to America is this:
THE fact that your people
want peace as much as ours
do"
One reporter asked whether
he thought once-a-year visits
between leaders Of countries
like Russia and the United
States would advance the cause
of world peace.

replied, ''it is always better

crate security precautions FASH
toned for Premier Khrushchev
than for an earlier Los Angeles
visitor from the Soviet--Deputy
Premier Anastas Mikoyan.
Before Mikoyan arrived, "
Chief Parker recalled. I'VE were
informed by Russian intelli-
eence Of a pact among Hun
garians to assassinate him. Our
intelligence didn't report any
such thing but we changed our
security set-up for Mikoyan.
Message from Premier
AT our August meeting, Gen.
Zhakarov told me that he had
a message for me from Premier
Khrushchev. He said the Pre-
mier told him to tell me that
when Mikoyan returned to
Russia, he described to Premier
Khrushchev the orderly man.
rler In which he had been re-
ceived and treated in Los
Angeles and as a result Khrush-
shev asked to come to Los
Angeles.
Gen. Zhakarov indicated he
wanted no physical contact be-
tween Khrushchev and the
press or the public. He wanted
actual physical barriers erect
ed. The Russians had not re-
quested physical barriers to
keep the press from Mikoyan.
1.-THE general said he didn't
fear any physical attack on
Khrushchev from any organi-
cation or from American peo-
pie, but he had grave doubts
about recent arrivals from Eu-
rope. He thought they were a
real security threat.
Potential Threats" Listed
Later. a long list reached
me of persons the Russians
thought possessed the potential
of bringing grievous physical
harm to Khrushchev. Once
again we were confronted with
the responsibility to ward of
attempts on a Russian leaders
life. We have a lot of Hun
garian refugees in this area.
when Disneyland was
brought UP at the August
meeting, it was agreed that it
presented an extreme problem
in view Of the type of secur-
ity being requested"
CnleI Parker SAID he told
the Russian and American
agents that as many as $4,000
people were known to have
converged on Disneyland in a
single day. The agents went
over maps of the area. showing
Disneyland 80 miles from Los
Angeles in a different county.
They discussed traffic problems
and the fact that the proposed
visit to Disneyland was on a
Saturday with workers on a
day of and children out of
school. There was complete
agreement. Chief Parker said,
that Disneyland should be
eliminated.
Report Promised
The Russian agents said they
couldn't make decisions them
selves. that they would talk with

Some three hours later he
arrived by jet at the Iowa Ma
tional Guard hangar, took his
place in a motorcade, and at
an informal press conference
on the sidewalk before his hotel
told the world he has mo right
to get tired"
Forty minutes later, he was
being driven at a leisurely 80
miles an hour past the corn
fields he approves SO highly.
His destination was a Des
Moines packing plant. When
he arrived, he was fitted out
with a blue butchers smock,
while the rest Of a party that
must have numbered $50 got
white ones.
Press Raises Hubbub
The chairman stamped In
the door. A shouting, showing
horde of reporters, photogra-
pliers and security officers
started to follow him. It was
like trying to decant a spring
food into a wine bottle, and
Russian Ambassador Menshi-
kov, looking coolly on. almost
got left out.
Eventually those with the
sharpest elbows and loudest
voices made it into the cooling
room, where the Red leader

been happier to be where he
was at the moment.
When he smiled. it was a
broad and amiable smile. AT
times he interrupted with good
natured comment which was
taken in Just that spirit by his
audience. There was not a
spark Of menace in the picture
he presented.
Frank De Puydt. president
of the Greater Des Moines
Chamber of Commerce, one OF
the dinner speakers, was in
PRODUCING some Of the honor
guests when Mr.. Khrushchev
interrupted. The speaker had
introduced one of the Soviet
party-Vasily Yemelyanov.
He Is a metallurgist who
holds an important post in the
direction Of Soviet atomic en-
ergy.
And richer than anyone
present here in Iowa." added
Mr.. Khrushchev.
1t brought a big laugh.
Premier Claps
When Mr.. De Puydt said
Iowans would welcome agricul-
tural competition with the So
Wet Union, Mr.. Khrushchey
broke into quick applause.
At another point, during ar
address by Des Moines Mayor
Charles F. lies, Mr.. Khru-
shchev interrupted to say:
I'm our country, sometimes
when distinguished guests come
and visit in some Of the cities
they clean the streets especially
for them"
The Mayor replied, II think
we will have to plead guilty
and Mr.. Khrushchev threw
back his head and reared with
laughter.
A tough schedule still lay
ahead. Mr.. Khrushchev, after
long hours at the Garst farm

our position and I said ! didn't
believe Gen. Zhakarov or Mr..
Burdin would be happy about
Mr.. Khrushchev going to
Disneyland.
"They Don't Make Decisions
"Mr. Menshikov said. They
may voice an opinion but they
don't make decisions
But Mr.. Lodge said that in
view Of what I had told him.
the party wouldn't 60. He asked
me about Mrs. Khrushchev
going to Disneyland. I told
him II he wanted the same
security for her as for her hus-
band. 1t couldn't be provided.
So she didn't 60 either"
At the studio luncheon, Mr..
khrushchev dashed out at the
American security that deprived
him Of a trip to Disneyland.
Ironically, Chief Parker noted
the time Mr.. Khrushchev took
to castigate the security forces
plus the time he spent viewing
what the chief called French
exposure" and the Premier
called "pornography" would
have ruled out the Disneyland
visit anyhow. BY the time the
Khrushchev party left the Can
Can" set, it was nearly S pm.
At that hour, the chief said,
1t would take an hour each way
for the Disneyland excursion.
And Mr.. Khrushchev was due
at the hotel at $50 pm. Logis-
tically, 1t was a lost cause.
Introduced to Premier
That evening, at a reception
before Mr.. Khrushchev again
exploded over the dinner table,
the chief was introduced to the
Premier.
Il insisted on having his in
terpreter tell him that If he
were critical Of security in Los
Angeles, he should address his
remarks to me-" the chief said.
He reached over and patted
me in a fatherly fashion as If
to say don't worry about it."
The chief said he also went
out Of his way to tell the Rus
sian agents: Don't you take
the heat Cor this. Just say
Parker Is a very obstinate
man."
But, he said, Mr.. Burdin re-
piled: mo. we agree with you.
We think your position was
right. After all. we are secur-
ity men,"
"Black Cats" Scored

Knrushchev was still taking
swipes at the Los Angeles po-
lice chief. Among other things,
he accused the chief of being
superstitious and said, II don't

frighten us and prevent us from
carrying out the schedule"
But Chief Parker. insisting
to the last that Disneyland
wasn't and never had been on
the schedule. commented: II
told the security men that this
could be interpreted as the
Russians not honoring our
agreements"
And finally, the chief want
ed to know: How can he

the case.
Eugene Mann, who lost the en-

ed for 1000 for 7.66 acres. He
was awarded $9,77s.S0 by the jury
Carroll Mann was asking for $12,-
600 to $4,000 damages. The jury
awarded him only $3,576.13.
Previously, the commissioners in
Hyde appointed for the appraisal
had set the value of the 1925
acres as $5,218.5O.
If last weeks court action
stands, the people of Hyde County

more than they had expected to
pay. This will be collected through
the law passed by Rep. O'Neal last
week.
Witnesses for the Board of Ed

testified that before taking, the
land of Eugene Mann was worth
from $4,000 to $15,0O0O, for 7.66
and had been reduced in value to
some $4,000 to $10,500. These wit
nesses for the Mann brothers had
also testified that Carroll Mann's
tract had been worth $12,625 to
$4,000 before taking, and after

BILL PASSED TO
BUY LAND FOR
HYDE SCHOOL
Landowners Appeal Last Weeks
APpraisals to Supreme Court:
Confusion Continues

The Legislature has passed a
bill sponsored by Rep. Dick O'Neal
of Hyde County authorizing the
Commissioners to levy a tax up
to five cents on the 500, to pay
for land for the controversial CEN
trail school on which construction
was begun last year near Lake
Comfort.
Last week in a special term of
Superior Court it was ruled that
$13,354.43 was a fair price to pay
for 1928 additional acres for the
site for the school. Construction
had been started on the school be-
fore the entire site had been ac-
quired. A suit was brought re-
straining construction of the school
until title to all the land had been
acquired.
In spite of an order to not
spend further money on it, the
Supt. of Schools got some $4,000
from Raleigh and paid it to the
contractors.
The landowners, Carroll and
Eugene Mann of Newport News,
contested the value set in two sep
arate appraisals, which resulted in
the costly term of court last week,
whereby jurors were brought from
Pasquotank County to pass on the
value of the land.
