CORNELL WASHINGTON (AP) — Presi- fent Eisenhower challenged an 6pposition Democratic Congress Friday to join him in quest of military and economic. strength for the United States and a just peace for a fearful world. These were the great goals set forth for the year ahead in the presidential State of The Union to In general terms. Eis- enhower outlined a. formidable but. “sensible Busture “of ' de- fence” along with a balanced budget and war against inflation. In these days when the latest ‘bombers “‘cost their weight in} gold,” Eisenhower said, “‘we can afford everything we clearly need, but we cannot afford one cent of waste.-’ ASKS CO-OPERATION The president appealed to the legislators to work with him to keep in balance the $77,000,000,- 000 budget: he is sending tq them Jan. 19.

Tuna-Fishing Contest Is Cancelled For This: Year By ED SMITH Canadian Press Staff Writer “WEDGEPORT, -NS. (‘CP)— Hardy South Shore fishermen . battling one of the toughest win- ters in the history of lobster: fish- ing here absorbed another blow Friday with philosophical Aca- didn calm The announcement that the In- ternational Tuna Cup match, held here annually was to be sus- pended for 1959. generally brought a ‘‘we knew it was to be so” rea¢tion. Complacency how- -ever, Was tempered with the unanimous belief that the suspen- sion was temporary: that mysterious tuna would reappear; that the world’s wealthiest deep sea fishermen would have bigger and better catches. The suspension announcement by the match directors meeting in New York was openly pre dicted at the end of thé ‘1956 sea- son. Then eight competing na- tions managed to land only four fish. The Jean“cycle had apparently begun the year before when three tuna were boated by seven teams: LONE CATCH WINS In 1957 there were three again with Mexico winning on the strength of it’s lone catch—a 655 pounder. And Mexico remained} the defending ‘champion at the end of last year’s competition when four teams: tried but couldn't get a single bite. It was’ the first fishless tourna- | had | had an etght year | ment in 15. a-series that started in 1937, curtailment because of the war, and reached its climax in 1949 | when five teams hoisted 72 fish weighing more than 13 and a half tons. “We hope the good times will Se back,” said Israel Pothier, thief of the Wedgeport Tuna Suides Association. “‘Now, it’s zoing to be a little tough but most ‘of us will adjust.” Mr. Pothier echoed the senti- the; ‘ments of match directors’ chair- | ment that it was “unfair to invite teams from half-way across the something.” COLD CASH. LOSS ment “‘recess” will mean a loss to this area of many thousands of dollars. Hotels alone stand to lose ‘between $20,000 and $30,000 in the first two weeks df. Septem- ber. Deputy mayor Hubert Lynch of | | Yarmouth, 12 miles away, said it | was ‘‘tough blow” to the area and the province as a whole. Mr. Lynch who runs a mens’ clothing shop felt the ‘actual money spent could be considered minor in comparison to the mil- lions of dollars of free advertis- ing the tournament gives this province.” Capt. Lellis Coutreau, 46, is one who is prepared: He sug- gested last September ‘‘there are other fish in the sea.” | Coutreau and his buddies who |man the 30 boat tuna fleet will llose a $5,000 tournament kitty ‘from boat rental, baiting .and guiding fees.

Baker, selected nine times as member of British Com- monwealth teams, doesn’t think the “recess” is anything to ‘get upset about.” . “We had the hiatus before.

BUILDER A CROOK Seventeenth - century diarist Samuel Pepys described the builder. as ‘‘a perfidious rogue” who was trying to make a fast pound on speculation. The residence has been altered and patched up through the years, but up to this century it hadn't even a bathroom. Prime Ministers were forced to sit in tubs filled by hot water brought aapse Comes Margot Asquith, wife of Henry Asquith, was outraged at the lack of a bathroom when she moved in upon her husband’s be- coming prime minister in 1908. She had the- situation remedied, but even today there is a short- age of bathrooms both in the residential quarters and state sections. Macmillan has. ordered ‘major structural alterations. Out of re- spect for tradition and the Eng- lishman’s love for the continuity of institutions, the outer facade in kettles. of the building will. be preserved. through an old, termite - éaten floor increase. Macmillan was appalled at conditions of the structure wheu | he moved in with his family two years ago in succession to Sir Anthony Eden. He set up a com. mittee to investigate. It confirmed his worst suspl- cions. In a report submitted last jyeart he committee said 10 Downing : Street was in serious danger of collapsing.

Brisk rounds of applause broke out as the august upper chamber suspended its regular, business proceedings for J® minutes to welcome on its floor a Canadian parliamentary delegation led by Mark Drouin, Speaker of the Ca- nadian Senate, and Roland Mich- ener, Speaker of the Commons. More than a dozen members rose to bespeak their afection for press conference to outline their progress here. They return to Ot- tawa Sunday. They were introduced to the Senate by Senator George D. Aiken (Rep. Vt.), chairman of the four-man Senate group taking part in the talks. He said resolutions adopted last year by the Canadian Parliament and the U.S. Congress, setting up special committees to study means of providing closer co-op- eration between the two legisla- ‘tures, had not come about “by accident.”’ The Senate foreign relations committee, of which he was a member, long had been “‘keenly Canada and her people, and Lyn- don Johnson ‘Dem. Tex.), Senate majority leader, said he was happy to welcome such “able and gifted neighbors” because he knew of no country that was “more respected” than Canada. START TO WORK Later delegation — made up ” two committees, representing thé Canadian Senate and Commons— went into conference with similar committees from the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives to set up machinery designed to per- mit close consultation between members of the two national leg- islatures on Canadian-American affairs. Their heartfelt reception on the Senate floor highlighted a day in |which they visited the White House and heard President Eisen- hower express the hope that their visit would strengthen relations, joined Congress in hearing the president's state-of-the-union ..ad- dress and were guests at a lun¢h. eon tendered by members of the | House of Representatives.

Dam Death Toll” May Exceed 300 ZAMORA, Spain (AP) — The sleeping village of Rivadelago was swept away early Friday by a wall of water loosed by a burst- ing dam. Rescue workers said less than 200 of the 500 inhabi- tants were known to be alive. The ground drops 1,690 feet in the three miles between the dam and the village, and the rampag- ing torrent roared through be- fore most villagers could flee their homes. Burdened by the waters of a month-long rain, the dam broke just after midnight with a roar heard in villages five miles away. Not until 12 hours later, when the water receded, were the first rescue teams able to en- ter the village. SCENE OF DEVASTATION They ) found a scene of devasta- tion. Not a house was left intact. Wreckage was strewn along the valley, Telegraph and telephone poles were flattened. Kt was hard te see how any- ¢ one still in the\village could em- erge alive. Rescue workers said those who escaped were woods- men away from the village and those lucky enough to have had time to reach high ground after they were awakened by the thunderous bursting of the dam. Rivadelago lies on the western shores of Lake Sanabria in north-. west Spain, about 10 miles from the border with Portugal. RESCUERS DELAYED Rescue workers had great dif- ficulty getting in because of the havoc wrought by the waters. The only road leading to the vil- lage was flooded for hours. In Madrid, 190 miles to the southeast,,Gen. Franco met with his cabinet to take emergency measures for the relief of the stricken village. The disaster was the worst is recent Spanish history.
