There were some, however

The Khrushchev visit, he
said. will discourage millions

No Date on Red Visit


Mr.. Eisenhower was expected
to go to Paris in the latter part
of August. No date has been
fixed for Mr.. Eisenhower'S later
visit to Russia.
From the standpoint of dip.
lomatic Notwithstanding, Mr.
EiSenhower'S trip to Western
Europe shaped up as a picnic
compared with the tough task
of dealing with the Russians or
EaSt-WeSt issues.
Mr.. Eisenhower will be re-
turning to the area where he
served many years as an inter-
national military commander
The Allies, despite some differ
ences, see eye to eye on most
problems.
The largest exception in this
harmony scene is the towering
figure of Charles de Gaulle
whose ideas about Frances des-
tiny have caSed concern in the
Western camp.
Gen. de Gaulle has de-
manded a voice for France in
use of atomic weapons, has
withdrawn the French Medi-
terranean fleet from NATC
combat command and has en-
barked on a controversial
campaign to quell the Algerian
instruction.
Hasn't Met Eisenhower
Mr.. Eisenhower has not met
with the new French President
since he took Office. Britain's
Prime Minister Macmillan and
Mr.. Adenauer both have been
to Washington this year. But
the nationalistic Frenchman
has brushed aside invitations
to visit.
The European journey gives
Mr.. Eisenhower a chance to
talk with Gen. de Gaulle withS
out obviously going out of his
way to do so.
Mr.. Eisenhower recently said
he and Gen. de Gaulle "are
old friends, comrades Of the
war and since" who might be
able through personal talks to
make special progress in
smoothing out differences be-
tween the two governments
He noted that many of the
differences have to do with de-
Tense.
In his discussions generally
with the Western leaders, Of
f1cials said Mr.. Eisenhower
might deal with such matters
as his exchange of visits with
Mr.. KhruShchev, East-West
disarmament and nuclear test
ban talks and the German
problem.
Details Yet Remain
Wa shington authorities
meantime waded into the many
details that remain to be
ironed out on the KhruShchey
visit.
The broad agreement for the
exchange was handled in such
secrecy and on such a high
level that most State Depart
ment officials below the rank
of UnderSecretary seemed I'M
aware of it until yesterdays
announcement.
Where he will travel dur.
ing his Today tour of thu
United States will depend OF
where he would be properly re.
ceived and what he wants tt
see. United States officials wert
sounding out local leaders il
various parts of the country tt
see if they would cooperate il
a KhruShchev visit to theil
area.

The largest slide was in the
Madison River valley below Heb
gen dam where the side of an
5000 foot high mountain crashed
with a roar and a rush of air
with such forces as to take the
clothing off of people who were
near. There is no way of knowing
how many vacationers were in
the area at the time.
For hours about 200 persons
were trapped in the seven mile
stretch of the canyon below Heb
gen. A wall of water swept across
the dams top with the first shock.
Cracks opened up the earth and
rock section of the huge dam,
which caused fear that the dam
would give way.
Helicopters brought out the
most seriously injured while high

to ram through an emergency

can be determined. Those who are on vacation that might
have been in the immediate quake area are accounted for
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Mathison, at first thought to
possibly have been in the Hebgen dam danger area, sent a
telegram informing that they are safe. The Kenneth Johnson
family also feared to be in the Hebgen area have been locat-
