For however we may gloss over it or tend to minimize it. the fact is that entertaining Khrushchev over here is repugnant to most of us. because we don't think much of the man himself and what he stands for To most Americans, Nikita Khrushchev isn't a man great enough or a personality fine enough to merit an official invita- tion to visit the United States. Indeed, the only reason that Nikita Khrushchev at long last p*Ts his wish to see America is that the American people gener- ally will go a long, long way to find the means of better under- standing between the United States and the Soviet Union, in the fervent hope that through friendship peace might be assured Somewhat better Bt SINKSS WAS BOOMING at the grandstand Thursday night, when the largest crowd in the 101-year history of the Gouvcrneur and St. Lawrence county fair turned out to see Carmel Qninn and other performers on the night show bill.

Tpn 'sident arid publisher, revealed (that the Tri bum?- Press would move sometime during the com- I ing year to new quarters In what is now *he Freeman Furniture store on Clinton street. Mr. Scozzafava. who will take over the adjacent Tribune-Press building as soon as it is vacated, plans to cut an entrance into the ^building from the front of his I present store to the portion of j the Tribune-Press that now con- I tains the editorial and advertis- i ins? offices The front of the two buildings then will be converted into a large display room with merchandise on shelves and aisle ' tables, and two offices will be in- i stalled at the site of the present Tribune-Press business office. ( , The rear of the building will be j converted to a stock room to take care of new lines of merchandise |that will be added, and the up- stairs rooms and cellar will be used for storage No change will be made in the Earl Hicks Barber shop nor the offices on the second floor of the building Mr. Scozza- lava also plans on having a ship- jping department located in the rear of the Tribune-Press build- jing . It was 42 years ago that Mr. .Scozzafava set up his business in an old blacksmith shop that sat j about fifty feet back from the istreet on the property next door to the Tribune-Press As nig oper- ation grew, he built on an addi- tion in 1922. another in 1927 and a third in 1947.

Foster, executive vice pres- ident or the St Lawrence Valley association of Chambers of Com- merce at the Rotary meeting Tuesday noon. \What industry wants is an In- dividual engineering study of the sort we plan to make in the Gou- verneur area.\ Mr. Foster said. \Industry wants to know the ad- vantages of a particular communi- ty and how the advantages apply to the kind of activities it car- ries on\ Mr Foster, who has located a total of 44 plants, mostly in the area south of St Louis, Missouri, is an industrial development ex- pert, with wide experience as a liason man bet wen communities interested in more industry and industries inteTested in new sites. Getting a new industry is not simply a matter of playmg up the community with promotional ma- terial. Mr. Foster saW It is neces- sary to find out what the com- munity has to offer industry, and then go to industry with this in- formation. \When a survey of a town is begun, it is impossible to know what will be discovered Almost every* town has some combination of transports ttoit« w&%er issj^pljr, natural resources, good location or labor supply that makes it attrac- tive to a certain type of industry.\ The new survey of Gouverneur will be more detailed and precise than the former surveys, which have tended to generalize, Mr. Foster said. \We must be able to approach an industry and say I'm pinpoint- ing this area for your specific type of industry and be able to pro- vide a scientific picture of how the community lends itself to certain activities.\ •The key to industrial develop- ment, in accordance with the viewpoint of industry, is that they must be able to remain compete- tive This mean* they must find lower cost of operation.\ | In making the survey of this area, a careful check will be made on the population to determine ' what sort of labor market exists in Gouverneur. Mr Foster cited the case of one area which he surveyed for Du- I Pont and discovered that six dif~ ferent nationality groups made up the population. The company was I then able to chose three of the na- 1 See—SURVEY—Page 6 ,Wort of Historical Society Shown at Pair | The desK at which Doiphus S Lyode of Harmon sa T when he was a member of *he New York State Senate from 1KT8 to 18K3. was a j feature display in the exhibit ar- a gliTrrps^ of the day afternnr»r.. for fair president White Foot J(jp owned by the Seymour stabies of Ix-Kalb June- T:on. with Richard Wehber up. c3f>!uH''d the trophv in The exrit- irc Ruderman two \^'HT oid tnt. af?pr ^::riSrer rorr.Tx *:*;on with Miss Oe\ PT Ka*° ourH*-i h*» KTOSS and Ah! of Wo** Aihary and dnven b> Garland Garrvy White For>* Jr*v u ^* edc f *d ir. fi ~> s**cond pia^e r»> M^* (>\fr Ka t<ri in a str'-rch ha*tie jr. ihe fir?* heat, run m 2 \4?s br fn Carmel Quinn — Person to Person The people of Gou\erneur took CarmH Qumn into rhfir hearts la>t weok Those who hoard her sine to a record breaking cruv d at earn of tnr**e night shou s at ?)v* G<>u\orneur Fair and others •luck\ erw^uch to have had a chance to talk with her informal- ly all agreed that 'she was just plain nice.\ They had expected to enjoy the lilting \01ce the> had heard so often on television and to find Irish personality engaging. out At chiidren fair.'fty was amiy at th* trme the Hre started, having left it 2X They were unaware that they had been burned 30 *ha* nigh* *iv»v ar4 Ihms w:*h Mr arvi Mrs Clitus LaVere in pretty cm^derl conditions The LaVere's have t»~o and the four a^jl*$ and sev*-n children are housed in three *h *h* c^i^c^w- < we^pmg on tSe ftoo~ »-!!
