Mr.. Biggs a notice of intention

that Mr.. Biggs' city permit be

MIDDLETOWN, N. Y, Sept.
3.-Henry Cabot Lodge made
his bow as the Republican vice
presidential candidate today on
the borscht circuit, where many
a star has been born.
The proper Bostonian,- who
stepped down as Ambassador to
the United Nations on Friday,
drove all day in an open car
through the rolling blue Cat
skill Mountains, stopping at
resort hotels where New York
ers traditionally go to have a
wonderful time.
Hundreds of vacationers left
golf courses and swimming
pools to gather round as he
discoursed affably on the Amer
lean dream, the pursuit of hap
piness and the need for Rich
ard Nixon as President in the
dangerous times ahead.
Mr.. Lodge, scion of a famous
Bay State family, was some
what tentative as he took up
the campaign practices of slap
ping backs, patting babies and
signing autographs.
He was abetted by Mrs.
Lodge, who entered heartily
into the spirit of things. AT
Liberty Airport she picked up
in her arms a 4-year-old girl
named Karen Lane and at the
Nevele Hotel gaily donned a
T-shirt donated by the man.

Mr.. Lodge was under the
escort of Gov. Nelson A. Rookie
feller of New York, erstwhile
bidder for the G. o. P. nomina-

"give everything I've got to the

ticket"
Also in the party was New
York's popular Attorney Cen
eral, Louis Lefkowitz, who pan
licked audiences with reminis-
cenceS of his days as a busboy
in the CatSkillS.
Mr.. Lodges opening day au-
diences were all in informal
attire. There were eye-stop-
ping color combinations. Capri
pants, coolie hats and cork
shoes, and the prevailing
jewelry was pearl and gold
ankle bracelets. They all
seemed to know who their hon

First City HuII
Would Quarter
Commissioners
BY SAM EASTMAN
Star star Writer

The District Government will
get back its original city hall
on Judiciary square, it was re-
ported yesterday.
OfficialS are quietly working
out final details for returning
the building, known as the Old
Courthouse, to the District.
The 140-year-old building al
Fifth street and Indiana avenue
NV, with Lincoln's statue in
front of it, is now held by the
Federal Government. 1t is being
used by the Selective Service
System.
Agreement Near
According to a reliable source,
agreement between city and
Federal officials on transfer of
the Washington landmark is
expected within a month or
two.
Last May, Commissioner
Robert E. Mclaughlin revealed
that he was making a bid for
the return of the Districts first
city hall.
Plans call for moving the
Offices Of the three Commits
sioners. along with top city
agencies. from the District
Building at Fourteenth and E
streets NV, into the Old
Courthouse.
Creates Extra Space
This would provide extra Of
flee space at the District Build
ing for such departments as
highways and sanitary engine
ering, along with room for some
Of the agencies now housed in
various other buildings through
out the city. The Selective Ser
vice System would be moved to
new quarters.
Eventually, with the old
building returned to the Dis
trict, the city's entire munich
pal government would be To-
Gated in a three-block area
Under long-range plans, a
West Administration building
will go up next to the present
Municipal Center, across the
street from the Old Courthouse
The District Building then is
to be torn down.
Built in 1920
Mr.. Mclaughlin, now recov-
ering from a heart attack, has
said it is "inexcusable" for
the Federal Government to
keep the Judiciary square build
ing.
The Old Courthouse was
built in 1920. The District oc-
cupied it as a city hall until
1873. The Circuit Court, pre-
deeessor of the District Court
then moved in after the Fed
eral Government paid $4,000
to remodel it for courtrooms
Later, additional money wa:
voted to add wings and re.
novate the building. The courts
moved out into their new
quarters in 1852.

The weatherman promises
more of the same for today,
but a bit warmer. His report
also showed that tomorrow will

The temperatures in the Dis

Plea Made
By Premier

HELSINKL Finland, Sept. 3
(AP) Soviet Premier Nikita
S. Khrushchev called again
tonight for a summit meeting
on disarmament at the United
Nations general assembly
opening this month in New
York.
During the second day Of his
visit to Finland. the Kremlin
leader also cautioned Norway
and Denmark that Northern
Europe might be a more peace
full area if they would follow
Finland and Sweden in a neu-
tral policy.
And he did some talking
about preparations for the
launching of a Soviet space
train"
Calling the speedy solution
of the disarmament question
the most important and i'm
mediate task facing the world,
Mr.. Khrushchev pointed out
the Soviet Union has suggested
that the heads of government
lead their delegations to this
months assembly session.
Speaks at Birthday Party
He said the Soviet Union
urged such a course because
"the battle for disarmament
is both full of responsibility
and complications"
The Soviet Premier talked
about top level disarmament
discussions and neutrality in
Northern Europe in a speech
from a theater stage at a BIRTH
day party for Finland'S presi-
dent, Urho Kekkonen.
Apologizing for introducing
a serious subject into the
birthday festivities, Mr.. Khru-
shchev blamed the West. and
particularly the United States,
for disarmament delays.
Mr.. Khrushchev already has
announced he will head the
Soviet delegation to the U. N.
General Assembly opening in
New York September 20. He
previously has suggested that
the leaders of the big powers
get together there to talk about
disarmament.
Disarmament Is Difficult"
Here for a two-day visit, Mr..
Khrushchev said:
1--WE (the Russians) know
that the way to disarmament is
difficult but we are prepared
to do everything and not to
save any effort.
This is a difficult question.
, Therefore the chiefs of govern
ment should head their dele
cations (to the General Assem-
: bly, in order to be able to
, come to a rapid solution"
The Soviet Union announced
Thursday that Mr.. Khrushchev
would attend the Assembly
session. That announcement
was followed quickly by word
that the leaders of the other
Communist bloc nations seated
in the U. N. also would attend.
: Reaction Is Cool
That action. however, brought
cool response from the big
Western powers for top-level
talks. Still stung by the break
: up of the summit meeting in
Paris in mid-May, the govcrn-
mentS of the United States,
Britain and France indicated
there were no plans for their
top men to join Mr.. Khru-
, shchev at the U. N.

Khrushchev Asks U.N. Summit !;
Kennedy Takes Stand Against It
GO. P. Hit
By Senator
In Alaska

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Sept.
3 (AP)-Senator Kennedy took
a stand today against any sum-
NIT conference of Western
leaders with Soviet Premier
Khrushchev at the United Ma
tions meeting this month.
The Democratic presidential
candidate jet-powered his cam
paign into the 49th State with
an attack on President Eisen-
hover and the Republicans for
standing still" at a time when
he said world and domestic
conditions demand action.
"This Nation-in terms of its
history, its geography and its
vitality-can never afford to
stand STILL" he said. "For If we
continue to stand still the
Russians are going to run over
US.
"Mr. Khrushchev is going to
bury us. He seeks not only
the power to destroy us. He also
seeks, by economic and political
means, to isolate us-to out
produce us-to outlast U.s."
Would Go to u. N.
Pausing 21a hours in San
Francisco in midday, Senator
Kennedy said at an airport con-
ference that if he had the de-
cision as President he would
attend the forthcoming U. N.
assembly meeting.
But he said he would not time
his appearance to coincide with
Mr.. Khrushchev's visit. Il
wouldn't attempt to make any
summit out of the United Ma
tions meeting" he said.
There are indications that
President Eisenhower may join
with other Western leaders in
Iisolating Mr.. Khrushchev when
he appears before the u. N. The
Soviet Premier has said he
thought it would be good if
heads of state could assemble
on the occasion.
Senator Kennedy said it is
his feeling that the President
ought to use every means OF
STRENGTHENING the U. N. He said
Ihe thinks the international or
ganization is on the road to
becoming a stronger force for
peace than it has been.
But he said that if Mr.. Ell
senhower decides not to speak
before the Assembly he will
not criticize that decision.
Lands in San Francisco
Senator Kennedy left WASH
ington this morning and flew
first to San Francisco for what
he called the official begin
ming" of his campaign.
He told a warmly cheering
airport rally in San Francisco
the Nation must start moving
again" under a new Demo-
cratic President because the
balance of world power is
shifting.
Senator Kennedy was greeted
by a crowd estimated at more
than 1000 after arriving at
noon on a cross country Jet
flight from Friendship Airport.
After his brief San Francisco
stay he flew to Anchorage.
He was welcomed by Gov.
Edmund G. Brown in San
Francisco as he invaded the
home State of his Republican
opponent, Vice President Nixon.
Brown Cheered
Gov. Brown was loudly
cheered when he declared 1--WE
in California are not impressed
with the overwhelming humil-
ity" of Mr.. Nixon.
