Hay Fever Time This year people with large vacant lots in the city should be especially careful to keep them mowed, since many people suffer miserably with hay fever, an allergy to weed pollen. City ordinance requires every property owner to keep his yard and property trimmed and presentable, as it should. It also makes provisions for charging those who do not keep their own property up, so that it will be done anyway. This can be placed as a lien against your property. Most property owners do a good job. Even the city has gotten into the act, as they have gone along the streets, spraying weeds that grow up along the curbs and sidewalks. The sheriff has asked all farmers to keep their property mowed back at road intersections. Every fall tall corn gives some driver a feeling of security as he speeds through an intersection to meet his death ramming sideways into another driver who could not see him coming. In fact, we have even had some interesctions in town that were hard to see around. There is always the possibility, though we would hate to think that it would be necessary, of passing a city ordinance which would fix punitive fines for those who after a warning still fail to cut their weeds or lawns — like the citjFi smoke ordinance, which has been inforced with daily fines until violators finally “see the light?— Weedy property looks bad, gives the city a bad name, decreases the value of the property, and that next to it, causes hay fever, hides all kinds of vermin, and disease, and is illegal. That should be enough reason to clean up any vacant lots, or around unrented homes, or at intersections.

Raises Hopes Os Easing Cold War

MOSCOW (UPD—Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev’s decision to take personal charge of the Soviet delegation to next week’s big three talks here raised hopes today that he is ready for further steps to ease the cold war. Informed sources here disclosed Thursday night that Khrushchev would put off his vacation in order to be in Moscow when Secretary of State Dean Rusk and British Foreign Secretary Lord Home arrive Monday to sign the partial nuclear test ban treaty With Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko. Communist China kept up its attacks on the test ban. In Peking radio broadcasts monitored in Tokyo, it said the nuclear question cannot be decided by “a few big powers.” It charged the test ban agreement was a “big

Local Residents Al Church Convention

Mr. and Mrs. Louis A. Jacobs of Decatur, attended the 46th anniversary of the Lutheran laymen's league, July 28-31, at the Conrad Hilton Hotel in Chicago. Jacobs is a past president of the Northern Indiana district and has served on several national committees. The theme of the convention was “God at Work in Christian Families.” Keynote speaker Prof. Paul Harms of Concordia Senior College, Fort Wayne, told 1,200 delegates and visitors, “God wants to work in a Christian family so that He can work through it.” For 30 broadcasting seasons the Lutheran Laymen's League has sponsored The Lutheran Hour on radio, world-wide for the past 20 years. The convention learned that an intensive study of program ideas and formats is being made to try to reach normally hard-to-reach segments of the American radio audience } . Highlight of the report on overseas broadcasting was the announcement that the one millionth letter from listeners to The Japanese Lutheran Hour had been received in the Tokyo office. The convention opened with a Lutheran Hour rally in the International Ballroom of the Conrad persons, including some who Hilton hotel. An estimated 4,000 watched on closed circuit television in an adjacent room, heard a message-by the Lutheran Hour speaker, Dr. Oswald Hoffmanh, who left immediately after the rally for a spiritual life mission at Air Force bases in Japan, the Philippines, and Hawaii. -- The following officers and board members were elected at the convention: William Driemeier, Pittsburgh, Pa., secretary; Norman Heitner, St. Louis, treasurer; Luther Jennejahn, Hilton, N. Y.; A. W. Herrmann, New Orleans; Donald Adam, Dearborn, Mich.; Wendell Grauer, Marcus, Iowa; James Mayes, Shawnee Mission, Kan.; Harry Hansen. Riverton. Wyo ; James Symonds, Seattle; and Robert Guebert, Leduc, Alta. (Canada), board members. Boston was selected as the 1965 LLL convention city.

conspiracy” against China and called on other Communist countries to join it in trying to develop independent nuclear arsenals. Remain Several Days Rusk and Home will remain in the Soviet Union several days—perhaps as long as a week—to discuss ways of extending the progress made on the nuclear issue to other .problems of the cold war. Khrushchev was expected to stay until Wednesday. Gromyko and the two Western nuclear negotiators, Undersecretary of State W. Averell Harriman and British Science Minister Lord Hailsham,' went over some of this ground in their talks last month. These are the main features of the Khrushchev “peace package,” as made known in his speeches and statements: —A non-aggression pact between NATO and the Warsaw defense alliance. The West is reluctant to agree to this, fearing implied recognition of Communist East Germany, a Warsaw pact member. Suggests Control Posts —Control posts to prevent surprise attack. Khrushchev has suggested stationing foreign inspectors to check on troop buildups and movements, but details are net elear. —Freezing of arms budgets and reduction of foreign troops in both East and West Germany. Again, it is not fully clear from public statements how this would be controlled. There also was speculation that the three foreign ministers might take up the extension of the partial test ban treaty to underground tests. As it stands, it outlaws only tests in the atmosphere, ouer space, and under water. Plan Rebuilding Os Quake-Struck City SKOPJE, Yugoslavia (UPI) — The mayor of Skopje said today the city will be rebuilt on the same site where an earthquake destroyed most of its buildings and killed more than 2,000 persons. Blagvje Popov said work will begin immediately to rebuild the four largest city government structures. And in Munich, Germany, Yugoslav Consul Slobodon Krstic, told a news conference that the present site of Skopje is “too vital a traffic hub” to be relocated. Earlier, officials had said the city would be reconstructed at a different site—away from a line of faults which have produced 220 tremors since the big earthquake occurred just before dawn on July 26. The quake destroyed 85 per cent of the city’s buildings. Popov said the final death count will show that more than 2,000 persons died in the disaster. Almost half of the city’s 200,000 residents have left it to find homes elsewhere. Twelve more bodies were reported by Tanjug, the official Yugoslav news agency, to have been removed from the rubble Thursday night. That brought to 837 the numbdr of victims whose bodies have been found.

Employment Hits Record During July WASHINGTON <UPI>—A Labor Department expert says the increase in U.S. employment during July to a record of nearly 71 million jobs shows the economy has been “rising rather stoutly over the past six months.” Gertrude Bancroft, Labor Department manpower expert; said the employment report issued Thursday was regarded as particularly significant because an increase 0f’532,000 jobs was recorded during a period when there

normally is no change in the job total. The department also said the biggest part of the job increase was in -teen-agers and young adults under 24, an area which has been of prime concern to the Kennedy administration. The Labor Department statistics showed, however, that the unemployment rate dropped only one-tenth of a per cent, from 5.7 to 5.6 per cent, meaning that 56 out of every 1,000 persons looking for a job could not find one. The report said unemployment fell by 524.000 to 4,322,000 in line with usual July trends. The increase in jobs was in the non-farm sector of the economy.
