Diplomats said the United States Britain and France will not be deflected from the German question despite Moscow's indicated strategy to stall on this subject when the Big Four meeting begins next Monday. The possibility of an East-West tug-of-war on the German question was expected to come under final review at today's White House meeting of President Eisenhower's top-level National Security Council. However, no announcement was anticipated from the top secret session. The high-level meeting was the last before the President leaves for Geneva Friday night after delivering a nationwide radio-television address on Geneva conference prospects. Allied Meeting Saturday Before flying to Europe late Wednesday, Secretary of State John Foster Dulles reflected Allied concern over the German issue. The secretary pointed out in a farewell statement that he would meet Saturday in Paris with representatives of the 15-nation North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The Treaty nations, he said, were "much interested in some of the problems which may come up at Geneva, particularly in relation to the federal republic of Germany, which is now a member of Nato." Dulles did not mention any other problem slated for Big Four study. His other parting remarks were confined to predictions of Allied unity, a warning that "no great decisions of substance" should be expected, and a hope that Geneva would carry ahead "our unceasing quest for a secure and just peace..." 49-Bed Hospital Gets Approval of Planners SANTA ANA (OCNS)—Construction of a 49-bed hospital southwest of Anaheim has been authorized by the County Planning Commission.

Convict Woman For Urging Youths To Dodge Draft BRATTLEBORO, Vt. — Mrs. Lucille S. Miller said today her conviction on charges of urging youth to dodge the draft was "fair". She added it was only her first step in proving peace-time conscription unconstitutional. "I had a fair trial and the verdict was just one step toward reaching an adjustment to remedy a serious condition of justice in this nation," the mother of three said. Mrs. Miller was convicted by a jury in U. S. District Court yesterday. The jury of seven women and five men deliberated an hour and eight minutes before returning the verdict to Judge Ernest W. Gibson. The chubby, 44-year-old woman was freed on $1000 bail pending sentencing Aug. 8. Attorneys indicated they will appeal her conviction to the U. S. Court of Appeals in New York City. She faces a maximum sentence of five years in prison or $10,000 fine, or both, on each of 18 counts in two indictments. Mrs. Miller admitted during the three-day trial that she seet letters to nine young men urging them to dodge the draft and turn over their draft cards to her. She also admitted sending each a copy of an anti-Communist publication, "The Green Mountain Rifleman," in which she expressed her views.

Applicant Moore Built Homes plans to erect the modernistic, $300,000 hospital on the east side of Gilbert St. about 185 feet north of Ball Rd. The area is zoned for agriculture. The building will take in 17,600 square feet of floor space. No more than 50 employees will be on the premises on any one shift, according to the applicant. Off-street parking for 84 cars was included in the plot-plan. The applicant's architect, D. A. Ramberg of Santa Ana, said construction probably wouldn't be started until the first of next year. The hospital will be located adjacent to a medical center already approved for Moore Built Homes.

Four o'clock yesterday afternoon the temperature stood at 87 degrees, but relative humidity of 556.5 made it seem like 120 degrees. An agricultural laboratory source said today that the low clouds and the still, moisture-laden air have contributed to the mugginess. Temperature today at 11:30 p.m. was 83 degrees.

THURSDAY, JULY 14, 1955 IN CHANCE FOR PEACE Arrives in Paris to Pave Way for Summit Talks By WILBUR G. LANDREY United Press Staff Correspondent PARIS — Secretary of State John Foster Dulles arrived here today to put the finishing touches on Western unity and strategy before next week's historic Big Four summit conference in Geneva. Dulles and Harold E. Stassen, President Eisenhower's assistant on disarmament, landed at Orly Airport to begin their round of meetings with French Foreign Minister Antoine Pinay, Disneyland, Labor Issue Statement Issuing an interim statement on the progress of discussion between AFL representatives and Disneyland officials, C.

Brandt, who slept soundly during the night, was returned to the same room where he was questioned for 18 hours yesterday. A third set of fingerprints was made, police said. Brandt, who was known at Laporte City, Iowa, by the nickname of "Mugeye," told of seeing the Davis child on the porch of her home with her mother, and of returning later to take her from the bedroom where she slept. He denied killing the child. A joint announcement by FBI agents and Joplin Police Chief Roy Isgrigg, was delayed. Isgrigg had not arrived at the jail at that hour. But Acting Detective Captain Johnny Showers said Brandt, 42, "admitted any crime we asked him about, so we couldn't be sure of anything." There were discrepancies in Brandt's story and federal agents summoned Sioux City officers familiar with details of the brutal murder. Iowa police said Brandt has a record of one conviction for sex molestation in 1947 at Cedar Rapids and was fined $100. He was arrested last April 24 at Waterloo, Iowa, for investigation of annoying two small girls in a movie theater, but was released when the investigation showed no molesting.

In Good Spirits Dulles was in extremely good spirits and radiated optimism as he greeted American Ambassador G. Douglas Dillon and scores of top American officials in Paris. "This is a day (Bastile Day) when the heart of the whole world beats with that of France and when liberty, equality and fraternity take on a new meaning," Dulles said. "Our own liberty seems the more precious as we sacrifice to make it secure and see those who having had liberty, have lost it and now aspire to regain it." The latter was an obvious reference to Russia's satellite states in East Europe. Dulles and his party left the airport after a brief welcoming ceremony. Russian Delegation They arrived as Moscow announced that both Soviet Communist party chief Nikita Khrushchev, Russia's most powerful man, and Defense Minister George Zhukov, Mr. Eisenhower's old World War II friend, would go to Geneva with Premier Nikolai Bulganin, nominal head of the Russian delegation.

Krusé said Brandt didn’t get much schooling and “can barely write his name.” He said Brandt had been involved in petty thievery a long time in the La-Porte city area but was never prosecuted because the people in town knew they could go to him and get their property back.

(UP) — a 33-year-old former Navy commando sails for Gibraltar today on a home-made 30-foot boat. “I’ll sail for Gibraltar and if my ‘coat holds up after the first 3,200 miles — and my money holds out, I’ll go on,” George Boston said. He is taking $100 in cash. He sets out aboard the “Fiddlers’ Green” which he built on the lawn of his home here. It took him 2½ years and cost $1,500 to build the Tahiti double-end auxiliary ketch. The former Harvard and Boston University football player stowed provisions for 120 days on the boat. His provisions included five dozen eggs, bacon, bread and canned goods. He also had on board 70 gallons of fresh water and 65 gallons of gasoline. “I’ve got a ‘ham’ set with a maximum range of 4,000 miles running on a gasoline generator, so I won’t get too lonesome, the 299-pound batchelor said. His first destination after leaving Fisherman’s Beach here is the Azores, some 2,200 miles. “I figure about 40 days to the Azores, and another 20 to Gibraltar. I won’t know what will happen after that until I see what shape we are in at the ‘Rock’,” Boston said. “I’ve got a good boat and I know how to sail her,” he said. His longest trip prior to this one was 240 miles to Nova Scotia. He said he would lash the tiller and sleep during the days. “I’ll look out for others in darkness and hope they see me in daylight,” he said. He planned to sail most of the way. His supply of gasoline for the eight horsepower engine will take him only 600 miles. Boston quit his job at the General Electric Co. plant in Lynn three months ago to complete work on the ketch. He said he was offered $11,000 for the boat but he turned it down. “Naturally, I’m a bit excited about this,” he said.
