Ticket Selected The Republican central committee met Saturday night and chose a slate of candidates for the city election this fall. It was actually a meeting to meet the legal requirements of approving selections already made —two previous meetings were held at the license bureau, and all the candidates but one secured then. One councilman was signed up since the second meeting. Gage, Kolter, Jones and Deitsch were secured at the first meeting, Smith and Teeter at the second. The selection of seven of the eight candidates needed to fill the ticket should warm up the political atmosphere. Democratic candidates, nominated in the primary this spring, have been unable to campaign all summer because they did not know who would oppose them. The issues of the campaign will be clearly drawn. Five of the eight Democrats are up for reelection. All of them stand for continued low city taxes, a hard-working city street department, good utility service, regular weekly garbage collection and monthly trash collection, a businesslike administration of the youth and community center that provides so much entertainment for the young and adult population alike, and a progressive, fair-mind-ed city court. Both parties will undoubtedly bring forth platforms. Whether the Republicans will take a clear-cut stand on the city power question is not known. The Democrats, while willing and able to do their best to carry out the will of the people, have pointed out frankly that continuing the operation of the city electric plant is not feasible, since power can be purchased so much more cheaply than it can be manufactured. On the other hand, at least two of the seven Republican candidates were members of the so-called “citizens committee” that was quite active against the sale of the electric plant before the first vote, putting out a letter two days beforehand full of dubious information. This committee, which promised to continue its activities after the last election, apparently died out after making a series of weak suggestions, which they said justified keeping the plant. All of them had already been tried where feasible, rejected where not feasible; they were very weak answers for a positive program. ; So it should be an interesting campaign. Not all members of the Republican ticket agree with all other members on the issues. This could definitely prevent them from making a workable platform.

Sen. Kefauver Warns Dangers In Diplomacy WASHINGTON (UPI» — Sen Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.) said today Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev would consider his forthcoming U. S. visit a success if he “sowed the seeds of distrust” between the Western Allies. “If those seeds take root and grow, then he will have achieved what I believe to be the number on aim of Moscow, the wrecking of NATO,” Kefauver said in a speech prepared for Senate delivery. Nevertheless, he said he approved of President Eisenhower's invitation to Khrushchev and of the President’s talks with Western leaders in Europe starting Wednesday. “But I think we should not deceive ourselves as to the difficulties and dangers inherent in this type of personal diplomacy between the heads of government,” Kefauver said. “I think our best defense against the wiles of Mr. Khrushchev on his forthcoming trip is to refuse to take our eye off the ball.” “We should be gracious and hospitable, we should show him our stoves and refrigerators and kitchen sinks with disposals and anything else he to see but we should show him alo that we are serious about building our Atlantic community.” Kefauvyr said he was conflident Eisenhower would assure the leaders of Britain. France and West Germany that he would not bargain away any of their interests in his talks with Khrushchev. The White House had no comment today on Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson’s statement that it would be up to the administration to initiate any invitation to Khrushchev to address a join session of 'congress. Chairman Francis Walter (DPa.) of the House Committee on Un-American activities said Monday night he has advised Eisenhower in a letter to bone up on the Communist conspiracy before conferring with Khrushchev. Walter told the President that the Red ‘‘espionage operation" in this country was part of the Communists’ total war on the free world.

CHAPTER 28 QERGEANT Frank Sellers pulled > cigar out of his pocket, twisted off the end with his teeth, spat the little gob of tobacco on the floor, lit the cigar and acted like a tnan preparing to enjoy a good show. “Go ahead, Pint Size," he said. “Start talking and it had better be true.” “I don’t have anything to talk about," I said. “Now look,” Inspector Giddings said, "we’ve got lots of ways of making people talk, and we don’t have to do any brainwashing, either. We put pressure on you, Donald, my boy. We put the pressure on you right up and down the Una You can't make a living in this town if the police are against you, and if you’re smart, you know that.” “He’s smart,” Sellers said. And then after a moment, added, “But tricky, awfully tricky.” "You’ve never lost anything tagging along with me," I told Sellers. “Well, no," he admitted, puffing thoughtfully at his cigar. "I can’t say I have, but 1 don’t think that would have been true if I’d sat back and waited for you to deal the hand the way you wanted it. After you get the cards shuffled, I've taken the deck out of your hand and done the dealing myself.” “All right,” I told him, “I’m still shuffling. When I’m ready for the deal, you can take the cards.” Giddings shook his head. “No, we don’t like that, Dmald. Maybe Sellers has confidence in you, but 1 haven’t I'm a skeptic. I don’t trust anybody." “You can say that again," Sellers said. “You can’t stall around with Thad Giddings, Donald. You’d better start decorating the mahogany." “Otherwise 7” I asked. Sellers made noises with his tongue against the roof of his mouth, the sort of rebuke that an indulgent mother gives to a small child. “Begin at the beginning," Giddings said. At length I said, “It all starts with a model who poses for artists and photographers." "You’re not referring to our little friend, Sylvia Hadley, the babe who was posing for Mrs. Crockett the afternoon her husband got bumped off, are you?" “That’s the one." “What do you know!” Sellers said, and turned to Giddings. "That’s cne thing about Donald. He gets around with the babes. If there's a bsbe in the picture, she | Etarts unloading on his shoulder, • r • ■> —. . ,

and Donald’s really good at taking it from there. I’ve seen it happen a dozen times.” "Go on," Giddings said. “What about Sylvia Hadley?” I said, “I think she’s some kind of a fence.” “A fence? That babe?” I nodded. "She’s been going with an older man, a man by the name of Mortimer Jasper, who’s some kind of a collector and—well, it stands to reason, she wouldn’t have any interest in him, that is, any real romantic interest —he’s doing something for her.” “What?” Giddings asked. "1 think he’s supplying her with . . . well, it’s Just a hunch, but 1 think he supplies her with information about the value of things, and 1 think Sylvia picks them up and then gets nd of them.” Giddings looked at Sellers and said, “How dumb can a guy get ?” “Shut up, Thad,” Sellers said, his eyes boring into mine. “Go ahead, what’s the pitch, Donald? You’ve got a reason for thinking this. What gives it to you?” “Well,” I said, ’3 tried to follow it up, that's all. I went out to call on Jasper and ask some discreet questions. I never even got in to see the guy. When I stopped the car and started to get out, a couple of goons came out and made me drive to a vacant lot Then the guys beat the tar out of me." “You think there was some connection between Jasper and these two goons?” Sellers asked. “No,” I told him. “Get it straight. I think this Jane, Sylvia Hadley, had these two strongarm men follow me to see where I was going. When they saw I was getting hot on the trail, they worked me over. The idea was to keep me out of circulation for a while.” “Did they take anything?" Sellers asked. "What do you mean, take anything ?” “You didn’t have any evidence or anything they wanted?” “If I’d had the evidence,” I told him, “I’d have been playing it closer to my chest. I wouldn’t have left myself wide open. No, all I had was a hunch.” Sellers and Giddings exchanged glances. "The guy may have something," Sellers said, "with the cart before the horse, if you know what I mean. Thad.” "I get you,” Thad said. "It’s worth a try." There was silence for a moment, then Giddings Jerked his thumb at me. “What do we do with this guy?" “Take him along," Sellers said.

10 minutes. No need to dry them afterward; just replace them, light them up for a few minutes, and they’ll dry themselves. Brighter Rugs You can give your cloth rugs a good, general, brightening-up treatment just by sprinkling some salt all over the rug, letting this stand for an hour or two, then vacuuming it. Prevent Tarnish You can prevent those precious gold or silver evening slippers from tarnishing by keeping them well wrapped in old stockings when the shoes are not in use. lodine Stains You can remove iodine stains from furniture by wrapping a damp cloth around your finger, dipping the end into fine powdered pumice, then rubbing the spot carefully.

"Okay. On your feet,” Giddings said to me. I tried getting up out of the chair. The tortured muscles simply wouldn’t respond. My legs didn’t have enough strength to do the lifting. Giddings grabbed me under the armpits, hoisted me to my feet. "Keep those muscles moving,” he said, "otherwise they’ll get sore.” "What do you think they are now?" I asked him. He just grinned. "Come on.” They got me to the elevator, down to a squad car and made time out through the traffic. Inspector Giddings did stuff with the desk clerk at the apartment house. “We’re going up to Sylvia Hadley’s apartment.” he said. "We want to ask her a couple of questions. Don’t announce us.” “Very well," the clerk said. “You heard me,” Giddings said. "I heard you.” “If we’re announced, we’ll take it-as an unfriendly gesture,” Giddings told him. “Come on.” We got in the elevator, went up to the hall and down to Sylvia Hadley’s apartment. Frank Sellers banged on the door. The door opened a couple of inches, held taut by a brass chain. Sellers showed his badge and identification card all tn a nice leather folder. “Police,” he said. “We want to talk with you.” "I’ve told you everything I know,” Sylvia said. "I know," Sellers said, “but we want to talk with you some more ... Come on. open up. We haven’t got all night to stand here and argue.” She opened the door. The three of us trooped in. She took a look at me and said, "Donald, what happened?” “1 ran into a door,” 1 told her. "And what are you doing here with these men?” “They brought me along for the ride.” “We’ll do the talking,” Seller* said. “Donald was here earlier, wasn’t he, Sylvia?” "Yes.” "What did you tell him ?” "Nothing ... that is, just some of the things I told you.” “What about Mortimer Jasper? What did you tell him about Jasper?” From the look of sudden dismay on her face, Sellers knew he’d struck pay dirt. "If I thought Donald Lam was responsible for this. I'd tell s lot more things!” Sylvia blazes, as the story continues here tomorrow.

Snow Is Predicted For November 8

United Press International The Farmers’ Almanac had some good news Tuesday for millions of Americans, sweltering in the worst heat wave of the summer. Snow will be falling on parts of the United States around Nov. 8, a quick check of the almanac revealed. Moreover, rain, wind and snow are predicted about Nov. 15. Meanwhile, Americans continued to suffer from the week-long heat wave that has wilted collars, derailed trains and sparked a sitdown strike at an Ohio prison farm. The nation east of the Rockies sweltered in 90-plus' heat and humidity again Monday and the U.S. Weather Bureau forecast more of the same for Tuesday and at least the next several days. The villian, the Weather Bureau said, was a high pressure area centered on the Southeast. This center has kept a steady

When a girl has been married and divorced very shortly afterwards, and is marrying again, is it proper to send a wedding gift again, in view of the fact that she did not make much use of the first gifts? A. There really is no obUgation to send gifts again. Whether you do or not is up to you. Q. A couple called at our home one evening recently, and the woman had her hair set in pincurls with a scarf around her head. Am I right in thinking this was rude on her part? A. You are more than right! Q. Should watermelon be eaten with the spoon or fork? A. Either is acceptable, although I should think the fork is more practical. Q. When a bride’s own father or mother is not living, and she has a step-parent, how are her wedding invitations worded? A. “Mr. and Mrs. Robert P. Martin request the honor of your presence at the marriage of her (or, his> daughter, Mary Eleen Bailey, etc.” Q. My wife is quite accomplished on the piano. Is it proper for me to suggest that she play for our guests, and also when we are visiting? A. It is all right to make the suggestion in your home, but never when you are visiting in someone else’s home.

Q. How should a person introduce his half-brothe and half-sis-ter?

A. If he wishes'to be in best taste, he will introduce them simply as “My brother” and “My sister.” Q. When setting the dinner table, is there any limit to the number of knives and forks one places at each plate? A. There should not be any more than three forks and two knives at any one place. If more silver is needed, it is 'brought in with the proper course. The dessert spoon or fork is brought to the table on the dessert plate.

Q. Is it proper for, a girl to powder her nose, rough her lips, file her nails, or comb her hair in a public place? A. Nail-filing and haif-cembing —never, NEVER! Touching up the lips or powdering the nose are excusable, if done quickly and with as little fuss as possible. Q. When I have borrowed a needle and thread from the attendant in a powder room, in order to make some small repair, am I supposed to tip the attendant? A. Yes, this is expected. Q. Is it up to the man or the woman, who have just been introduced, to say, “I’m glad to have met you,” when leaving each other? A. The man should take the initiative, while the woman responds with a smile and “thank you.” Q. Is a man ever privileged to remain seated while being introduced? A. No; he should always rise, regardless of whether the other person is a man or woman.

stream of warm gulf air pulsating northward, smothering any cool fronts moving in from the North. South American athletes in Chicago for the Pan - American Games found the humid heat wave worse than conditions nearer the equator. Manuel Herrera, Mexican swimming coach, said "it’s hotter than back home,” and a perspiring Uruguayan bicyclist .complained that “up here it’s as though it were raining all the time, except nothing is falling.” At the state prison farm in London, Ohio, 1,200 inmates said it was too hot to pick corn and staged a sitdown strike in the 90degree sun. A state riot squad finally broke up the strike. Thirteen passengers were injured when a Baltimore and Ohio train derailed near Perrysburg, Ohio. Railroad officials blamed the derailment on buckled rails expanded by the heat. Grateful New Yorkers breathed their first cool air in a week when a Canadian front moved in. But the Weather Bureau predicted the southern air would overpower
