THRIVE UP TO Harpers Ferry any week
- end this spring, and you'll find
pre-Civil War town taking shape on the
banks of the Potomac and Shenandoah
Rivers.
Teams of researchers have been busy
searching out the history Of the old arsenal
town, while archeologistS have been digging
into old ruins, and architects have been
authenticating the reconstruction Of old
buildings.
And when these Park Service experts
have finished, Harpers Ferry will emerge
as it was when John Brown took over the
engine house there 100 years ago this fan.
Already, the Master Armorer's house,
built in 1858, has been redone into head
quarters for the Park Service. 1t houses

other relics of the Civil War years.
On the hill, just down from old st.
Peters Church, workmen are restoring the
Harper House, the oldest house in the town.
When it is completed, plans are to use 1t
as a museum.
The Harper House, built of local stone,
was begun by Robert Harper, the towns
founder, in TITS. It was still unfinished In
1882, when Harper died. Historians say the
shortage of workmen during the Revolu-
tionary War period kept the house from
being completed.
Restoration of Harpers Ferry's old
buildings is under the supervision Of archi-
tect A. w. Franzen, who came down from
the Park Services Philadelphia office for
the project Through careful research, he
has determined just how the houses looked
at the beginning of the Civil War. Each

OKLAHOMA CITY, Oct. 3
(AP).-Rains that fell for four
days and forced thousands OF
Oklahomans from their homes

forecast to end in most of the
flood-stricken areas today.
Although flood waters receded
slowly in three cities, rescue
workers remained on the alert

Early property damages ran
into the hundreds of thou
sands of dollars, mostly at
Saltwater and Guthrie in
North Central Oklahoma and
around the little town of
Skiatook in the Northeast.
The Weather Bureau said
the North Central section
would be the only area in the
State that would not get rain
later today. Heavy rainfall was
forecast in the South Central
and Southeast portions through
tomorrow.
Swollen rivers and streams
continued to rise in the North
east and scattered rain fell last
night. Skiatook was isolated
by high water early today.
All but one road was open to
auto traffic at Saltwater, which
had been isolated. Only one
route was passable at Guthrie.
Water at both cities continued
to recede, but residents had no
hope of re-entering their
houses today.

Trees along the Skyline drive
are expected to be at the peak
of their autumn color between
october 10 and 20, the Shenan-
doah National Park Office says.
A park spokesman said the
colorful season is expected to
begin a little earlier than usual
this year because of the pro-
longed dry spell in September,
but should last a little later
because Of rains brought by
Hurricane Oracle.
Foliage along the Blue Ridge
parkway is expected to be at
its best between October Is and

sections and higher elevations

TOKYO, Oct. 3 (AP).-Nikita
Khrushchev apparently neared
the climax of his Red China
visit today as his Chinese hosts
waxed hot and cold over his
proposals for easing the cold
war.
A few hours after the Soviet
Premier's fourth meeting with
65-year-old Red Chinese leader
Mao Tze-tung, the official
Peoples Daily carried a lead
editorial saying the Communist
world accorded warm response
and support" to the commune
que Khrushchev jointly issued
with President Eisenhower fol-
lowing his 13-day visit to the
United States. That document
stressed the remuneration of
force in settling international
quarrels.
The United States has sought
without success to have Pei
ping say it will abandon force
as a means Of acquiring the
island of Formosa, now ruled
by Macs arch enemy, Chang
Kai-shek. Should the Chinese
Communists do so, it would be
a significant move in improv-
ing their relations with Wash
ington.
Blast at U. s. Printed
Chinese Premier Chou En-
lai said soon after Mr.. Khru-
shchev arrived in Peiping We'd
nesday that he welcomed the
communique.
But yesterdays Peoples Daily
gave equal space to the reprint
of an article by Foreign Minis
ter Chen vi which called on
"all peoples in the world to
wage a long and unrelenting
fight against American i'm
perialism."
The article was written for
the Soviet newspaper Izvestia
in honor of Red China's 10th
anniversary celebration Octo-
Der /. It gave little or no en-
couragement to hopes that
Peiping was prepared to soften
its attitude toward the United
States.
Thus far neither Moscow nor
Peiping has given any indica-
ton of how long Mr.. Khru-
shchev would remain in China,
but the fact that he and Mr.,
Mao talked twice yesterday was
seen as an indication the
Russians visit was nearing its
climax.
The Chinese Reds are eX-
pected to give Mr.. Khrushchev
general support in his cam
paign to remove the major
points of friction between
Moscow and Washington. They
may even go so far as to de.
clare they, too, oppose the use
of war in settling internationa,
disputes.
