Frisco Mayor
 Plugs For Trade With VladivOstOk

COPENHAGEN, R - Mayor George Christopher of San Fran cisco says Nikita Khrushchev is "a fine gentleman, very aggres- sive and very frank, and we all ways know where he stands"
 ''He is not the usual run of poli- ticians we know" Christopher told newsmen here yesterday on his arrival after a two-week visit to the Soviet Union. The mayor, who had entertained Khrushchev during his American tour, had an eight-hour reunion with the So- viet Premier in the Kremlin Tues day.
 Christopher said that during their lengthy discussion he and Khrushchev had a friendly argu- ment about free enterprise ver- sus Communism.
 "Of course I could not convince him that capitalism is superior" the Republican mayor said. But you can't blame him for believing what he believes in
 In an interview with the Mos COW newspaper Soviet Russia, Christopher was quoted today as saying that he was impressed most of all by Soviet hospitality.
 While emphasizing he was not an official representative of the US. government, the mayor said he would like to suggest that "a hospitality race would be better than an arms race"
 The mayor was quoted as say ing that representative of San Francisco had "time and again approached the State Department" on the question of expanding trade with Vladivostok but that "the question is still awaiting it's solution.'
 The newspapers report, distri- buted by Tass, said the mayor stressed that in principle, "he was for expansion of trade, specific ally between San Francisco and VladivoStok."
 Vladivostok is the Soviet Un- ions chief Pacific port.

Eisenhower Calls For Additional
 Mail Rate Boosts

WASHINGTON, R- President Eisenhower today sent an urgent special message to Congress call ing for an increase in first-class mail rates to 5 cents an ounce as part of 500 million dollar postal rate boost.
 Air mail rates would rise from ' to cents an ounce and post cards from 3 to 4 cents under legislation to be submitted soon by Postmaster General Summer field.
 Second class mail, mostly news papers and magazines, would take a 40 per cent boost in rates, and rates on third class mail, mostly advertising matter and small packages, would go up an average of 25 per cent.
 The President said it is imper- ative that Congress act to put the Post Office on a self-supporting basis, by wiping out deficits which he said "have increased astronomically" since World War II.
 The postal rate increase has been counted into Eisenhower s budget request for the fiscal year 1861, starting next July 1, and failure of Congress to act would reduce the budgets esti- mated $4,200,000,0OO surplus
 Congressional sources have in- dicated however, that the legisla- tion has little chance of enact ment in this election year. First class rates rose from 3 cents an ounce to 4 cents last year.

Senate Kills Plan To Create Whittier Port Authority

JUNEAU, R-The Alaska Sem ate killed yesterday two measures to set up state authorities to man. age development projects.
 A late afternoon 11-8 rollcall indefinitely postponed a bill to create Port of Whittier Author ity to manage the big Army base if it is turned over to the state.
 Earlier, on 10-9 vote, the Sem ate defeated a bill to establish an omnibus public work authority.
 The sponsor of the Port of Whit tier bill, Sen. Irene Ryan of An chorage, made the motion to stop action on it in order to bring it to debate. She strongly urged the Senate to keep the bill alive.
 Mrs. Ryan said the Prince Will liam Sound port was a facility the state could fuse in many ways to promote industrial development without damaging the com- mercial ports at Anchorage, Sew ard and Valdez" Among the ways she said, would be handling coal shipments to Japan.
 In any event, said Mrs. Ryan, it would be better for the state to manage the port than to allow it to pass into private hands. The latter condition, she said, might lead to a competitive situation which would hamper existing fla cilities in gulf cities.
 Others argued the port would be financial burden to the state. Sen. Irwin Metcalf of Seward said it might have cost 65 million dol lars to build but that didn't mean it was worth that much.
 Said Sen. B. J. Logan of Cor dova: "If the state took over the port it would keep it broke shov- cling snow" Logan called Whit tier the most expensive port in Alaska.
 Sen. Thomas Stewart of Ju- neau called the bill premature. He said it's provisions 'can scarce ly be used before the meeting of the next session" of the legis- lature. In the meantime, he pro- posed a resolution directing the governor to study whether and how the port might be used by the state.

Permits Granted To
 Nenana Ice Classic and Fairbanks Winter Carnival

JUNEAU, R - State Revenue Commissioner Peter Gatz issued temporary permits yesterday to the Fairbanks Winter Carnival Inc, to conduct lotteries and raf- fles and sponsor dog musher con- tests.
 Gatz approved the applications in telegram sent to Lane Boyer, Fairbanks, president of the Car nival. The $3 fees for each of the two events were paid by Rep Robert Giersdorf of Fairbanks.
 Giersdorf said estimated reve- nues from the activities at the Carnival, which opened Monday and continues through next Sun- day, come to about $25,000. This will cover about $7,000 for dog mushers and $7,000 for ticket holders, Giersdorf said. He said the rest would go to cover ex- penses, reserve fund and money to be used toward a new civic center building at Fairbanks.
 The first permit under the sanctioned gambling law went Wednesday to the Nenana Ice Classic
 The House Finance Committee has before it $41, ,00O appropria- tion for administration of the law.

Garrison Finish
Gives Palmer
.|nsurance0pen

WETHERSFIELD, Conn,
Aug. 8 (AP).-Is a Palmer fin-
ish going to replace q Garrison
finish among sports fans?
Time was when a solid way
to describe q fantastic come
from-behind victory was to call
it q Garrison finish, after
famed Jockey Snapper Garri-
son of the 1905.
But the way Arnold Palmer
has been winning golf prizes
this year, he may be the Gar
rison of today's generation Of
sports fans.
The 81 year old Palmer
staged a spectacular finish
again yesterday to win the In
surance City Open. 1t was al
most identical to the dramatic
finishes that brought him the
Masters and National Open
titles earlier this year and
established him as the No. /
golfer.
Fine Strikes Back
Five strokes behind Jack
Fleck. and three behind Bill
Collins, with 18 holes left to
play in the 72-hole grind,
Palmer caught the 1855 Ma
tional Open champion on the
10th with a birdie. Collins
joined them in a triple tie on
the list with a sub-par. They
went on to tie at 270. 14-under
par, necessitating a sudden
death playoff for the $500 top
prize.
The 3S-year-old Fleck and
Palmer birdied the 73rd. A
par eliminated Collins. The
two survivors battled the long
74th on even terms. And then
the SILL. l70-pound Palmer set
up the kill.
He hit the green 18 feet from
the cup on the par-3, 183-yard
18th. Fleck was short, but ap-
preached within four feet. But
while iron-nerved Palmer holed
out in regulation figures. Fleck' S
putter failed the veteran.

The Palmer finish brought
his official earnings this season
