U.S. To Expel Soviet Official WASHINGTON UPI — The

State Department charged Friday that a Soviet Embassy science officer has tried to obtain classified information from an American citizen in return

for large sums of money. The department said it has

demanded “immediate departure’’ from this country of the Russian official, third secretary

Valentin A. Revin.

Press Officer Robert J. McCloskey declined to disclose who the American citizen was, where he worked, what kind of information was involved, or just when the incident occurred. (McCloskey said the FBI “thwarted” the attempt. He said Revin “has engaged in activities clearly incompatible with his diplomatic status during his asignment in the United

States.”

Revin is one of seven science officers presently attached to the embassy. He is 34, married, and has one child. He has served at the embassy since June 26, 1963.

Combat Hail

MOSCOW UPI — Soviet rocketry has been called in to help stamp out hail, the Soviet news agency Tass said Friday. Tass said rockets full of chemicals have been shot into storm clouds in central Asia to eliminate the formation of hail which had been destroying crops there. The pre-rocket hail sometimes fell in stones as big as a hen’s egg, Tass said.

By JOSEPH W. GRIGG PARIS UPI—French Presi-

dent Charles de Gaulle is squaring away for a possible new pitch at playing peacemaker in

Viet Nam.

French officials emphasize he will do nothing unless and until

he feels the moment is ripe.

But he is known to share the fears of United Nations Secretary General Thant that the Viet Nam conflict could well explode into a general world war. French officials say De Gaulle ] is watching closely for any chance to intervene in the role

of possible peacemaker.

This is said to be one of the main purposes of his round-the-world grand tour which started last Thursday and will take him, among other places, on a state visit to Cambodia, only a few hundred miles from the Viet

Nam war.

Rumors that he might take the opportunity to meet secretly or even openly with North Viet Nam President Ho Chi Minh have been denied firmly in both Paris and Hanoi. It now seems most unlikely any such meeting will take

place.

But DeGaulle will take the opportunity to size up the Viet Nam situation at close hand in talks with Cambodia’s maverick chief of state Prince Norodom Sihanouk and other leaders of the little Southeast Asian kingdom bordering on Viet Nam. He also wall make what has

Salary Potential Drops For The School Dropout

By ROBERTA ROESCH A few days ago we urged every student who worked this summer to go back to high school this fall. Today we are back to second this motion in this zero hour before school begins, because every year after summer vacation thousands of young people drop out of school and fail to begin the fall term—especially If they need to earn money and already have a job. Money Labels But a job you label “Big Money” in high school reads “Little Money” later on when you learn all too soon that cutting your schooling short cuts your salary opportunities all

your life.

There was a time in this | country when young men and women could drop out of school, and. even with limited education, build rewarding careers. But today we are in a different age, and this is no longer the case. As the government’s Youth Opportunity Campaign points out, the unskilled job in America decline more and more each year, and the kind of jobs now being created require the minimal preparation of a

high school education.

Today’s dropout is tomorrow’s unemployed or underemployed. So when you drop out of high school to earn money you need for the present, you court economic disaster for the funds you will require for

the future.

Salary Differences. It can’t be said enough that When you reach that future, you will find that the high school graduates who are also working at jobs earn 75 per cent more than a person who

did not finish eight years of school. You are also likely to find at that time that even students w’ho leave high school behind after the junior year may make 15 per cent less in a lifetime that people who returned to school in the fall to finish their senior year. If you have to earn money in the present and must keep a job at any cost, go to your

been billed as a major speech on the Viet Nam situation during his three-day visit to Phflom

Penh.

French officials do not expect any startlingly new proposals. They say De Gaulle will reiterate earlier statements that the iVet Nam conflict can only be settled at the peace table and not on the battlefield. He is likely, they say, also to reiterate earlier calls for reconvening of the 1954 Geneva Far Eastern

peace conference.

French officials predict De Gaulle also will insist that any peace settlement must involve withdrawal of United States and all other foreign troops and ultimate neutralization of all

Southeast Asia.

They say he also may appeal again for halting of air attacks against North Viet Nam. However, French officials do not believe De Gaulle will lay down as a condition for convening a peace conference nor dq they believe he will demand withdrawal of foreign forces except as part of a peace settle-

ment.

French officials concede that DeGaulle has said all this before — in fact, he has been saying it for the past two years and more. But the fact that he will be saying it within a few hundred miles of the fighting will, they believe, give it far greater weight than ever before. By doing so, it is felt here, De Gaulle will once again have staked out a role for himself as a possible peacemaker, if and when he believes the time is

ripe.

French officials say he recognizes the time for mediation has not arrived yet. But De Gaulle wants to be ready to act, they say, when he thinks there is the slightest chance of success.

Then after you’ve made up your mind to do that, make up your mind to stay in school and get that high school diploma. In our nation’s projected future you, as part of the youth of our country, are one of our

richest resources. Immediate Future

But for your own immediate future — which starts when school begins for most of the country next week—the most practical plan for the present is to go back to school. Opportunity will be on your' side when you do. And the odds will be in your favor. ^

Canadian R.R. Strike Over? OTTAWA UPI — Railway workers in the maritime provinces led a back to work movement Friday easing fears that strikers across the nation would ignore parliamentary legislation making the walkout illegal. Parliament made the weeklong national rail strike illegal by passing a controversial bill sponsored by Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson. The first of 110,000 strikers showed up for work this morning in Prince Edward Island, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia. In the latter province, however, there were signs that some men would stay off the job as the holiday weekend of heavy train travel began. In Halifax, 50 train employes reported for work, then walked off again in protest against what they said was a lack of sick benefits in

Volunteers are a part of Americana, but the senior citizen volunteers in numbers are fairly new to the scene. One organization pioneering the idea of senior service hopes it will set a pattern other groups around the nation will

Low Pay, Long Hours Protested ST. LOUIS Mo. UPI—About 250 of 350 “on-duty” city firemen stayed away from fire station houses Friday at the start ; of a strike to protest low pay | and long hours. Fire Chief Joseph Findlay | said a strike of firemen is illegal under state law, and those joining in it would be suspended. He said enough fire companies were in service “to handle any emergency.” Findlay, however, urged those off-duty among the city’s 1,135 firemen to report to their sta-

agricultural crops.

But officials at the Naha air base, which w^as the hardest hit military installation and was badly damaged, refused even to guess how much it would cost to repair the destruction left be. hind by the big storm.

and such. But we realized that just because a person is 65 doesn’t mean he or she just wants to sit and rock, paint a picture or learn a folk dance. These people wanted to be of real help to others. The result is the NCJW’s senior service corps, open to all religious and races. Most of its members are the older people —a 91-year-old man is the oldest volunteer currently writh the project. But Mrs. Willen said there’s also a 16-year-old girl “senior citizen.” The basic idea, however, is to utilize older volunteers who offer a lifetime of skills and experiences to understaffed community agencies.
