Scrap Dealer
Asks Saving
OF ButtIeship

SEATTLE. Aug. "a (AP).-
Is the battleship West Virginia
worth her weight in scrap iron?
A Seattle auto wrecker says
she is. And he says he and 104
other fellows are willing to put
up the scrap to save her from
the junk heap.
The West Virginia, smashed
in the Japanese attack on
Pearl Harbor in 1941 but later
rebuilt, is now at the Puget
Sound Naval Shipyard Just
across the sound in Bremerton.
Last week, the Navy sold her
to a New York metal company
for 781,289.89. The company
said it would scrap the battle
wagon on the West Coast be-
cause she's too big to go
through the Panama Canal.
TITS a crime" said A. w.
(Burt) Trudeau. "She's a beau
tiful vessel. They just don't
make them like that any more. "
So Mr.. Trudeau, who has
long cherished the dream of a
floating museum. got busy on
the telephone.

Khrushchev
Sends Berlin
Reminders

BONN, Germany, Aug. "a
(AP).-Soviet Premier Nikita
Khrushchev has sent reminders
to West Germany, Britain and
France that Russia still wants
to end the occupation regime
in Berlin.
Informed sources said Mr..
Khrushchev made the point in
moderate but firm letters last
week to Chancellor Konrad
Adenauer. Prime Minister
Harold Macmillan and Presi-
dent Charles de Gaulle.
The Soviet Premier repeated
the line his foreign minister,
Andrea Gromyko. tried unsuc-
cesSfully to sell to the Western
powers at the Geneva talks.
At the foreign ministers
talks, Russia pressed for an
end to the United States,
British and French occupation
of Berlin. Mr.. Gromyko agreed
in principal to a truce in West
Berlin, but he laid down con-
ditions that the allies refused
to accept. Then the scheduling
of the exchange visits between
President Eisenhower and the
Russian government head put
an informal truce into effect
One observer noted that the
Khrushchev letters were sent
out a week before President
Eisenhower is slated to visit
Bonn, London and Paris for
talks preceding Mr.. Khru-
shchev's arrival in Washington.
"It's an old Soviet tactic u
he said, "Khrushchev always
sends messages just before i'm

are due to take place"

pledge that America will not
enter an accommodation with
Russia at the expense of their
own national interests.
Mr.. Eisenhower will probably
have his toughest time in
France.
Gen. de Gaulle wants to re-
store his country to her old
glory. He is demanding active
Allied. and mainly American
support for his aim at ending
the Algerian war on terms ia
vorable to France. He is press
ing for American help to turn
France into a nuclear power
And he is demanding a voice in
the North Atlantic alliance
equal to that of the United
States and Britain.
Mr.. Eisenhower has arranged
to spend more time in private
talks with Gen. de Gaulle than
with Mr.. Macmillan or Mr..
Adenauer.
Mr.. Adenauer, meanwhile,
has let it be known that he will
go all out to quiet any fears
the President may have over
Gen. de Gaulle's policy. Lon
don's Sunday Times and the
Sunday Observer reported from
Bonn that the West Germans
believe only strong, happy and
undetermined France can
make that country safe" for
the Atlantic alliance.
Warning Expected
The aged Chancellor is ex-
pected also to warn the Presi-
dent against appeasing the
Russians and against any soft
ening of Allied policy toward
Soviet Communism.
Mr.. Macmillan intends to
press his view that any first
step toward an accommodation
with Russia must be in the field
of disarmament. With a gen.
eral election looming in Britain.
Mr.. Macmillan's chances would
be helped greatly if the EiSen-
hover : K hrushchev talks
boosted the tagging EaSt-West
negotiations for a pact to sus-
pend nuclear weapon tests.

President Urges
Drivers to Heed
7 ruffic Laws

President Eisenhower chided
motorists today for making a
sort of game" out of violating
traffic laws.
There would be fewer &C
cidentS and greater observance
of the law, Mr.. Eisenhower
said. if drivers realized that
law violations are involved in
two-thirds of all fatal &C
cidentS.
The President made his ap-
peal for safer driving in a
message prepared for an Amer
lean Bar Association con-
ference at Miami Beach.
He also emphasized the need
for "well-conducted" traffic
courts to safeguard the rights
of defendants while serving the
best interests Of the public.
When courts do not come
up to these standards, people
become disillusioned and cyni-
