“Invented” Son Returns
To Haunt Former
French Soldier
SAINT QUENTIN, France, UPV—
Cpl. Prosper Foulon had used up
all the usual excuses and he still
wanted a three day pass.
He told his captain a three
day pass certainly couldn’t be
denied a soldier whose wife had
just presented him with a bounc
ing boy named Henri.
Foulon even went to the local
city hall with papers procured
from various sources an army
corporal would know and had
little Henri officially registered.
With that, he got the three-day
pass.
That was in 1939.
Foulon, now a cabinet maker,
was found out when the draft
board came around looking for
the mythical Henri. To make
matters worse, Mme. Foulon re
membered that the then-corporal
hadn’t used his three-day pass to
come home. The law let him off
because the offense was too old.
His wife may be stricter.
“If only I had invented a baby
girl,” Foulon moaned.

Dulles Rejects
Red Terms For
Pre-Summit Talks
WASHINGTON, MV- Secretary
of State Dulles said Russia’s pro
posal for a pre-summit foreign
ministers’ meeting is unaccept
able on terms the Russians laid
down.
Dulles told a news conference
the United States is in favor of
a summit meeting and wants pre
parations for it that will lead to
substantial achievements for
peace.
But this country, he said, wants!
no part of any fraud or hoax
which would merely fool people.
Dulles said the great danger in
the present East-West debate
over a summit meeting is that
the Soviets want to substitute the
fiction that the cold war has
ended for the reality of the cold
war.
Dulles declared that at present
he knows of no major issues
which in the light of known So
viet and Western positions offer
ed any likelihood of agreement
at a summit conference.
But, Dulles continued, this does
not mean prospects are hopeless
because some possibilities of ag
reement may be opened up by
careful and substantial work in
advance of a summit meeting.

of the $506,863,000 paid to all ,
subsidized carriers, $39,637,000
went to airlines operating in Al
aska. Of this amount Alaska Air
lines received $12,570,000, and
Wien Airlines $6,167,000.

strip and apron and erosion con
trol at Mekoryuk on Nunivak Is

Nixon May Exchange Visit
With Deputy Premier Mikoyan
“Satyr of Steyr”
Austrian Murderer
Trial Begins
STEYR, Austria, OP)—A slight,
sickly-looking father of two chil
dren dubbed the “Satyr of Steyr”
by the Austrian press ' went on
trial today, charged with murder
ing two women and raping four
others.
In a lurid confession made pub
lic by the prosecution, the de
fendant, 38-year-old Alfred En
gleder; said he wanted to “de
base” womanhood because his
amorous advances were usually
rejected.
The state charged that from
1951 until his capture last sum
mer Engleddr roamed on his bi
cycle after dark, seeking youpg
women.
Terror spread in this ancient
Alpine town midway between
Vienna and Salzburg. Women
were found dead or seriously in
jured from hammer blows on the
head, their clothing ripped off.
In November 1955 the body of
a young nurse who had been
raped was found on a river bank.
A doctor was convicted on cir
cumstantial evidence that has
since been discredited.
Two more rapes last summer
caused a nationwide manhunt
and Engleder was caught as he
was trying to escape into Com
munist Czechoslovakia.
As the trial began, the court
room was overflowing with peo
ple who had lined up for 18 hours
to get tickets.

► WASHINGTON, Uf) — Vice
President Nixon is seriously con
sidering a visit to Russia in Sep
tember, perhaps in exchange for
a trip to the United States by
Deputy Soviet Premier Anastas
Mikoyan.
Authoritative officials who re
ported this said that Nixon might
also visit Poland, Yugoslavia and
six western European nations
during a five-week tour as Presi
dent Eisenhower’s representative.
Nixon’s §top in Moscow, they
said, would depend on arranging
a visit for a Soviet leader of
about equal rank to this country.
Mikoyan’s name has been men
tioned most frequently by diplo
matic planners as an acceptable
swap but no invitation has gone
out yet formally inviting him.
As deputy premier, as well as
top economic-trade planner, Mi
koyan’s influence seems to be
rising even though he is a hold
over from Stalin’s day.
He led the first public attack
on Stalin’s rule, even before
Communist party boss Khrush
chtv spoke out, in February 1956.
At present he is viewed as one
of the top three Soviet leaders,
and recently accompanied Khru
shchev to East Germany when
Bulganin stayed home.
