MARCH OF EVENTS
Suez Crisis May Bring Big Three Together
See Probability They Will Co-operate Bette:
Special to Central Press Association
TJTASHINGTON—Western diplomats foresee the possibility that VV the Suez crisis may compel the United States, Britain and France to compose their own differences and join m a unified policy
on the Middle East.
Each of the Big Three powers has conflicting interests in the area, but Egypt’s seizure and nationalization of the Suez canal has —at least for the present- brought a semblance of allied unity. Although the United States is a comparative newcomer, Britain and France have had longstanding ties with the Arab world in general and the Suez canal in particular. Anglo-French reaction to Egypt's abrupt move was a determined show of force designed to show Premier Gamal Abdel Nasser that the West meant business. However, the United States stepped in and urged her colleagues to “calm down” pending the outcome of negotiations at London. So far, the policy of moderation has
paid off.
But in the long run, diplomats hope the talks will lead to closer eo-operation among the Big Three in an area where only the fuse on the powderkeg needs to be lit to touch off a fullscale war. • • • « 8 sTASSEN TO INDIA?—There are reports in Washington that ’'rold E. Stassen. who tried to dump Vice President Richard M. cn from the Republican ticket, will be offered a new job in the ministration. Some circles in the capital are speculating that Stassen, who took a leave of absence as President Eisenhower's disarmament adviser, will be told that he can have the position of ambassador
to India.
The Indian assignment has been hanging since Ambassador John Sherman Cooper resigned under Mr. Eisenhower’s pleadings to run for the United States Senate seat left vacant by the death of Alben W. Barkley, the former Veep. >

• HURRICANES—United States Weather Bureau efforts to detect hurricanes from the first storm center in the Carnbbean “spawning grounds” are getting a big boost this year from science. Rockets, radar and radio are the new, important detection and tracking devices now at the forecaster's disposal. Upper-air research vehicles like the Navy's Aerobee-Hi rocket have been fired over tropical disturbances to photograph the shape
and patN of the storm.
Last year, much use was made of a powerful, Science Helps

Helping tie this hurricane watch together are new radio communications, camera and radio-photo equipment for transmitting radar photos of hunicanes to the Wailungton, D. C-, forecasting

I “In Marion county the property taxes payable in 1951 amounted to $32,750,509, but for this year the officials asked for spending authority that would bring next year's taxes to S66.426.457, an increase of more than 100 per cent.
“A rate of $5 for each $100 of
taxable property promises to be the rule rather than the exception next year. Rates of $6 for cities and towns will be common.
“Taxes have ceased to pay gov-

WASHINGTON. i UP • President Eisenhower today formally made his promised offer to supply Adlai E. Stevenson with secret foreign policy i eports during the coming election campaign. The White House announced Saturday that Mr. Eisenhower would make the offer. Stevenson said he was “pleased” at the idea. The purpose behind the reports is to help prevendt campaign statements that might inaevertently embarrass the United States in itsrelations with other n itions. They also are designed to provide out-of-office candidates with background which would prove helpful in the event of election. White House Press Secretary James C. Hagerty did not disclose the actual messtage which Mr. Eisenhower sent Stevenson. He said he wanted to be sure the Democratic candidate had received it first.

This will be their final opportunity, on September 10, to protest prior to the time when the budgets and proposed ra-tes go to the State Tax Board for consideration. Property taxes have already reached the high level where owning hemes and farms is almost a luxury. We insist that we are a ration of home owners. If that is to continue we must do something to encourage this trend rather than permit taxes on property to reach the high level where only a few can afford such ownership.
