Mild Weather Break Is Predicted Soon Snow, Rain Cold Air Is Moving East By UNITED PRESS Snow’, rain and cold air roll ad down the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains today and signalled the beginning of the end for a pleasant and record-breaking autumn “heat wave.” A snow storm spawned by cool Pacific air hit Wyoming and spread into Colorado, New Mexico, and Nebraska. It was expected to bring mixed rain and snow to. Kansas and the Dakotas as it marches \slowly eastward. Big game hunting seasons were still on in Wyoming and New Mexico but the storm was not yet serious enough to mehace the livjes of sportsman camping in 4B BEE Rk WHEN THINKING of Buying or Trading for a select Used Car it will pay you to talk to Fred Busche.

The weather bureau said ;that the advance of, the cold front would be so slow that most of the eastern two-thirde of dountfy would enjoy mild, warm weather at least today and mpst of Thursday. ißy Thursday night, however the mercury should begin to, fall as far east as western New York State and as far south as 1 the border state of Kentucky. As the storm front moved across the Plains, southerly winds played across the state east of the Mississippi River, bringing CO to 70 degree weather to most Ureas again. However, the weather bureau said, the Middle Atlantic States and New (England were relatively cool early today. Most of the early snowfall in the western storm was scattered and light, but an accumulated total of 6 inches was’ forecast for southwestern Nebraska by Thursday. Highs were not expected- t) reach more than 30 or 40 degree.’. The snow’ fall was likely to continue into Thursday in other Western and (Plains areas also. Tuesday, new heat records were set in some areas and 70 degree, or higher, temperatures were common east of the Rockies. The new records included Minneapolis 70, and International Falls, Minm, 37. The colder w’eather and snowfall were not entirely unwelcome. Farmers could use a snow blankfet on their winter wheat, partiepia-jj in drought areas.

UN Votes For Private Talks On Disarming Soviet Russia And Satellites Refrain From Casting Votes UNITED NATIONS, N. Y., UP —The United Nations main politi-\ cal committee voted 54-0 with 5 abstentions today for private big power talks on disarmament. The Soviet bloc abstained and Burma did not participate in the vote. Refusal of Russia and its satellites to go along with a resolution sponsored by .14 western-aligned powers prevented a rare unanimous ballot in hope of which U. N. diplomats had delayed the vote since last Saturday. The western powers had revised their resolution three times to make it more acceptable to the Soviet bloc. Russia still offered amendments, but each was voted down by the 60-natlon committee, t|ie most popular gaining only 14 votes. ' The Unanimity of all U. N. members except the Soviet bloc—and Burma, which technically was not against the western measure — was at best a paper achievement, for few observers saw any hope the east-west deadlock on disarmament would be broken in the private talks. As sent to the assembly for final approval, the 14-power resolution expressed an “earnest desire to reach agreement as early as possible on a comprehensive and coordinated plan under international control for the regulation, limitation and reduction of all armed forces and armaments, for the elimination and prohibition of atomic, hydrogen, bacterial, chemical and all such other weapons of w'ar and mass destruction, and for the attainment of these ends through effective measures.” The, security council was summoned for this afternoon to delve into Syria’s complaint that a hydro-electric project started by Israel would divert the River Jordan and deprive 15,000 Arabs of water for irrigation. The administrative and budgetary committee opened debate this morning on secretary-general Dag Hainmarskjold’s request for sweeping! powers of dismissal affecting the 4,000 members of the U. N. secretariat. He sought powers which, if held by his predecessor, Tryg|ve Lie, could have avoided the furore raised bt his dismissal of Americans_ on loyalty grounds.

Jim hoisted himself to the arm of a chair'for a better look. His mother put on her crimson-rimmed spectacles, a bright contrast to her green velvet hat and black icnit dress. When Brownell stepped from the witness chair, the four Brownells jumped to their feet again. They clapped hard and long. “Fine!” said Tommy. “Great!” said Jim. > “it was very informative —and proved our point,” said Mrs. Brownell.” VOICES HOPE <Co»tl»ur4 From Fane Oaf) somewhat and he said he would take the verdict of the reporters on whether there was any truth to such a statement.

CARE OF WALL TO WALL CARPETING _ To maintain the new appearance of carpeting, ~-experience proves that spots should be removed as they appear rather than doing an over-all cleaning job once or twice each year. There is available a foam cleaner that does not leave rings when removing spots since it contains no naphtha or solvents. The use of this foam when spots appear, preserves the new appearance and life of carpeting. This cleaner known :as Fina Foam may be purchased at Smith Drug Co. Advt.
