Stevenson Likes
Khrushchev Visit

ISTANBUL, Turkey. Aug. S
(AP). - Former Democratic
presidential nominee Adlai Ste
venson arrived here today on a
private visit.
Commenting on President Ell
senhower's invitation to Pre-
Imier Khrushchev to visit the
United States, Mr.. Stevenson
said: II have long advocated
more and less-formal talks
with the Russians. I am glad
the President will see Mr.. Khru-
shchev. I am also glad he has
reversed (the late Secretary Of
State. John FOSTER Dulles
policy but I wonder if he knows
it,"
Mr.. Stevenson said I'VE
should not expect much" from
the talks but they will help
Khrushchev to know the facts
about the United States"
When asked if he plans to
run for the presidency next
year, Mr.. Stevenson replied
definitely no, it is time for
others to lead"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1959-08-05

The Americans repeatedly favor
a less formal meeting Of Mr..
Eisenhower with the ambassa-
doris who do the day-to-day
work In the council.
Some circles were suggesting
that Mr.. Eisenhower attend q
council meeting at which the
NATO foreign ministers repre-
sent their countries.
The news that the President
will visit Europe before his
meetings with Soviet Premier
Nikita Khrushchev brought
immediate pressure from the
smaller NATO powers to get
In on the act. =
Complaining the situation
however, is Gen. de Gaulle's
opposition to a Western sum-
init meeting Of himself. MI
Eisenhower, West German
Chancellor Konrad Adenauer
and British Prime Minister
Harold Macmillan. Whether
Gen. de Gaulle would agree to
a NATO summit meeting also
is questionable in view of his
recent difficulties with NATO,
The chief United States con-
Germ is that relations with
NATO-and primarily the
smaller NATO powers-should
not be weakened because Mr..
Eisenhower is going to meet
Mr.. Khrushchev.
American diplomats are TAX
ing pains to reassure the allies

Sales Rise iiRoo

ST. PAUL, Minn.-(CNS)-Dele-
gates from farm supply co-operatives
in eight northwest states trooped into
town, March 2, for the 3-day annual
meeting of Farmers Union Central
Exchange.
Last year their regional coop han
died $841a million worth of petrol
cum products, feed, fertilizer, auto
accessories, and other farm supplies.
This was an II " % gain over the
previous year, and co-ops in Wiscon-
sin, Minnesota, the Dakotas, Mon
tana, Wyoming, Idaho and Washing
ton bought most of it.
The co-op's earnings, however,
slipped to $6,737,0OO-21h " % below
1957-largely because of higher crude
oil and lower product prices. The coop
produces 21a6 of the crude oil needed
for its 6,000-barrel-a-day refinery
at Laurel, Mont.
Thomas Steichen, manager of the
Central Exchange, predicted the re-
gional coop will boost its sales above
$50 million this year.

Lieut.. Gov. Paul Cannon has an
nounced that he definitely will not

he now holds, but that in due time
he will make definite announce
ment relative'' to his future political
plans.
Cannon made his announcement
that he would not seek third term
as Lieutenant Governor in a letter
to Montana Democrats reporting on
accomplishments of the Democratic
controlled 36th Legislative Assembly.
Speculation in the Capital City
is that Cannon has his eye on the
governorship, and that when filing
time rolls around in early 1860 he
will toss his hat in the ring for the
Democratic gubernatorial nomina-

The north route, proposed by Will

one and quarter miles north from

Williams second route, the pipe
line route, lies five miles north of
his first proposed route and follows
Yellowstone pipeline. The pipeline
route would have a higher cost than
the north route because of the ter
rain, and would give less service to

many millions of dollars less expen-

concerning Montana schools
elementary, secondary and in
stitutions of higher learning. More
than 80 bills directly affecting educa-
ton were considered by the Assem-

will be discussed here. A compre-

Two important measures that will
affect the states participation in the
foundation program for local school
financing we're HB 255 and HB 532-
the foundation program schedule in
crease and equalization fund appro-
priation bills respectively. HB 255
originally called for an average in
crease of 7.6@o in the schedule rates
that determine the level toward which
the state will participate in local
school financing. The bill was amend
ed by the House Education Commit
tee to provide an average increase of
$3.50 in the schedule rates and passed
both houses in this form. The change
will provide a SLIGHT increase in the
foundation programs for all Montana
schools which for the school year
1958-59 amounted to only 1870 of
the total operating costs of all
schools. In actual operation the foun-
dation program increase makes local
school districts eligible for increased
state funds that are used to reduce
the revenue demands on local prop
erty taxes.
