President Eisenhower is expected to fly to Europe the last week in August, in his mect-the-Allies jaunt preparatory to receiving Khrushchev here.

Eisenhower will later go to the Soviet Union, returning Khrushchev's trip. Details of the Eisenhower travels are still being worked out. Diplomats said Tuesday it is not yet decided whether the President will try to see the chiefs of Britain, France and Germany just at Paris or will stop off elsewhere too such as at London.

Fomby, 28, was charged with possession of a bomb after being arrested July 1 in a car parked near a frequently burglarized gun shop.

Three homemade bombs were found in the car. Razing Plan For Church Is Delayed By the Capitol Start The Texas Employment Commission was directed" Tuesday to "delay plans" for the razing of old St. Martin's Lutheran Church north of the Capitol Building. The church is located at the corner of 14th and Congress streets. It is on the southeast corner of a block purchased by the state for the erection of a new TEC building.

The TEC building has been completed and is now occupied, but the church still stands. The congregation is to vacate within the next two weeks in favor of a new location on Rio Grande between 15th and -16th Streets. The cornerstone of the old church building will be removed Sunday. Tuesday the Senate adopted a simple resolution asking the TEC to "delay plans" for the destruction of the church, and to study the feasibility of using tlie build-s'ing for other purposes. Adoption of the resolution' came after a concurrent resolution, also by Herring, directing the TEC not to raze the building was knocked off on a point of order.

A simple resolution does not have the force of law, and is merely "advisory" in nature. The church was dedicated in the spring of 1929, according to Rev. F. G. Roesener, former pastor of the congregation.

In arguments for the resolution Tuesday Herring said the church was one of the "best constructed churches in Texas." "It would be a shame," Herring said, "For the building to be destroyed without studying the possibility of putting it to some use." Opponents of the resolution contended that the building will be more than a hull when the congregation lias finished the process of moving to new quarters. They said it would cost the state in the neighborhood of one-half million dollars to place the structure in proper repair. The resolution directs the TEC to hold off on the razing and report to the 57th Legislature the findings of the interim study.

A one-page of failure. A. Herter and his Western Nixon Near To Closing Of His Tour WARSAW, Poland (AP)-Wind ing up his handshaking tour in the Communist world, Vice President Richard M. Nixon Tuesday called for an end to racial prejudice and an increase in the free interna tional exchange of ideas Nixon flies back to Washington Wednesday after 15 days in the Soviet Union and Poland. He was the highest U.

S. official to visit the Communist world since World War II. His trip is now to be followed by the exchange of visits between President Eisenhower and Soviet Premier Nikita Khru shchev. Cheers continued to echo in Nixon's ears as he went through Warsaw, but the tour took on a som ber note with a visit to the site of Warsaw's Jewish ghetto, obliter ated in World War II by the Nazis. The ghetto is about one-third re built, although only a few thou sand Jews remain of Poland's prewar three million.

Nixon walked through the rub ble, looked around and told1 newsmen: "We think here of the terrible suffering of the people of Warsaw and Poland. This ruined building is more than a memorial. It brings home lessons that we forget too quickly." Men of good will, whatever their economic, political or social philosophy should bo united in fighting against prejudice because we have here a grim reminder of what happens when such forces are unleashed," Nixon said. "As we move into what we hope will be a period of peace, we must wage a battle against the forces that would inspire and stimu late such religious and racial hatreds." He also laid a wreath on a mass grave outside Warsaw in the Pal miry Forest, where 2,000 Poles were slaughtered by the Nazis. He was the first foreign dignitary to visit the site, the Poles said.

He had lunch with Polish officials, including Communist party chief Wladyslaw Gomulka and Premier Josef Cyrankiewicz. Nixon's press spokesman said serious subjects were discussed, but did not elaborate. The spokesman added that Nixon is "highly satisfied with the success of his visit to Poland." Warsaw was abuzz with rumors that Eisenhower will come here when he visits the Soviet Union, but there was no official confirmation of this. Nixon visited the rector and faculty of the University of Warsaw as 2,000 Polish students cheered. Scores of police locked arms to protect Nixon from the enthusiastic crowd as he drove up.

But some students broke through and showered Nixon's car with Dowers. NLxon drew loud applause from the faculty by urging a greater flow of teachers, professors and students between the two countries. "We can have different points of view or ideas," he said, "but the main tiling is to have an open mind and to have an exchange i and clash ot ideas. I look to the day when we can have a far greater exchange of teachers of our great institutions oi higher learning." Air Traffic Center Due In Nortexas FORT WORTH (UPI)-A $4 million air traffic center will be built at Carter Field, halfway between Fort Worth and Dallas, it was an- their deadlocked talks on communique is their charter Secretary of State Christian colleagues got together with Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko on the communique, which re cesses the conference until a date for resumption is fixed through diplomatic channels. They met in a three-hour session that wound up after midnight.

The end comes in an afternoon semi-public plenary session. The ministers will make their final for-the-record statements then. The plenary session will close 10 weeks of fruitless talks. It was one the longest rounds of high-level negotiations in modern times. The Soviet Union refused to low er its price lor a berun truce despite repeated overtures by the West.

And so the situation re mains now largely as it was when Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev set off the Berlin crisis with his challenge to Western rights last November. The general feeling here is that the forthcoming exchange of visits by Khrushchev and President Eisenhower, has taken the minis ters off the hook. The collapse of the talks was offset by the Eisenhower-Khrushchev exchange of visits which will keep up the East-West dialogue-even though the original Soviet threat to Berlin remains. The 10-week conference closes down Wednesday with a public session. Herter uies nome inurs-day.

IN SURVEY Students Tell Sex Instances LOS ANGELES (AP)-Sixteen per cent of the girls and 13 per cent of the boys who took part in a controversial sex survey in high school reported they had experienced sexual intercourse, their teacher testified Tuesday. All of the 60 boys and girls, mostly 17-year-olds, said they had kissed. Fifty-eight per cent of the boys and 34 per cent of the girls said they had petted.

Forty-four per cent of the boys and 32 per cent of the girls admitted intimate fondling of members of the opposite sex. Not one reported instances of sex perversion. The percentages were provided in a tabulation of the survey entered in evidence at a Board of Education hearing on the fitness of physiology instructor Cecil Cook, 37, to continue to teach. The survey, conducted last January as part of Cook's course in sex instruction, led to his being accused of unprofessional and immoral conduct in the classroom. If the Board of Education rules against him, Cook may lose his teaching credentials.

Taking the stand in his defense, Cook contended: "Young people have a right to have sincere questions answered. Not all questions that arise in an inquiring young mind can be answered from textbooks. "I encouraged questions as we went along. The students themselves said the survey had been given in another school and they asked if it 'could be given in -their classes. "I agreed because I thought it was proper it would enable each student to compare himself with his group and thus see for himself if he were normal." Cook said the two classes that answered the questionnaire had' been informed about it well in ad vance.

No one was required answer it, he said, but all of the students did. Asked why he had earlier directed them to write papers on sex abnormalities, Cook answered: "We were concerned with establishing what was normal. iucyi.uuiuiivai.uujr uic oujiuhuoi vvjuiuui an uiiuiL3iaiiuiiJ of what is normal." a a doors. Members are pledged not to reveal the proceedings This has kept from the public and from most legislators accur ate information on what the committee is doing about spending old and new tax money on state services during the next two years. The legislature's third called session last week finally passed a revenue Dill estimated to raise 185 million dollars in new money for the all-purpose general fund.

The only remaining issue is how to spend it. The conference committee is working on a basic $2,415,000,000 appropriations bill. Word leaking out around its closed doors indicates that there is no basic disagreement on large amounts, but that other factors are creating delay. One is friction between Sen. William S.

Fly, head of the Senate delegates, and Rep. W. S. Heatly, House appropriations chief. A well-founded report said Fly and Heatly exchanged angry words in a committee meeting Monday night over who gave the Associated Press its exclusive copy of the tentative spending bill last week.

Stories based on this report gave many legislators their first word of what was in the bill. The Senate sent the House a resolution Monday calling for final adjournment at noon Wednesday. The House ignored it pending a report from the spending conferees. Adjournment is not likely until the spending bill is finally acted: on in both houses. The outlook now is uncertain.

The 30-day session automatically ends Aug. 15 at midnight The House refused Tuesday to take up a resolution asking comp- trouer Robert S. Calvert to say immediately now much money the new tax bill will raise. The 185 million estimate is unofficial. Rep.

B. H. Dewey Bryan opposed the tax estimate reso lution. He said the amount would be revealed when the appropria tions conlerence report is ready. The Senate took care of legislative pay for the special session Tuesday.

The House had approved a resolution authorizing the $25 a day for members, but the Sen ate did not act immediately. This meant no pay for lawmakers on payday, Monday, Announcement of the Senate's action brought cneers in the House. I he House and Senate quit until Wednesday, home and put the coffee pot on." Mary's light-hearted remark soon turned into a grim drama. When Engle, 50, walked through the kitchen door, one of the convicts was holding a knife on his other daughter, Sara, 14. The fugitive told him everything would be all right if he didn't cause any trouble, Engle related to newsmen Tuesday.

"I told him we didn't want any trouble either. You can take what you want but don't hurt the kids." Engle, a professor and director of the Writers Workshop at the State University of Iowa, said he thought the best thing to do under the circumstances was to just have an ordinary evening. He invited the convicts, Donald Sills, 25, and Larry Morrison, 21, both of Des Moines, to eat supper with the family, but they declined. Mrs. Engle was home alone and ironing when the fugitives entered the house.

Later Sara came in from horseback riding. Mrs. Engle said she kept the iron hot and some water simmering on the stove as possible weapons, but "I don't think I could have used them," she said. While Mrs. Engle ironed, the two men tried on some of Engle's clothes and outfitted themselves.

About '11 p.m. the convicts bound the four with plastic covered wire. Before being tied Sara hid a pair of scissors in a birdcage and after the convicts left she managed to loosen her bonds, get the scissors and cut herself and the others freer The two men took $10 from Engle and drove off in his station wagon. Deputy Sheriff Lawrence La-Barge spotted the car on a country road and gave chase. The men abandoned it at Springville, west of here.

Sill, serving seven years for passing a forged check, was found hiding under a truck" in Springville. Morrison, sentenced to 10 years for larceny of a motor vehicle, stole another car, officers said, and left it in nearby Mount Vernon. He was captured in a bakery there. if Is Held by Jury of State's franchise tax division would spend many years in a mental institution. The jury was unusual because it was borrowed from another court where it was in tlie midst of hearing a civil suit.

After the sanity hearing it returned to the civil trial. Fomby was arrested July 1 in a car parked on East Avenue near a much burglarized gun shop. In the car, police said were three homemade dynamite bombs plus a rifle and two pistols "This young man is insane," Dr. Wade told the borrowed jury. The psychiatrist said Fomby is a victim of delusions of persecution and feels compelled to commit some act to get even with his tormentors.

The state offered no contest, agreeing that Fomby could not distinguish between right and wrong the legal definition of insanity. Wade said a cure would be difficult; probably requiring many years of treatment in a mental hospital. Fomby, who seemed to pay little attention to the testimony, later told a reporter he could not remember where he got the dynamite bombs or what he intended to do with them. "My memory is like one hand writing while the other comes along and erases everything," he said. A spokesman for the Secretary of State's office told a reporter Fomby had been a good worker until early last summer when he began "wandering off" the job and was discharged.

At about the same time he was divorced in a district court here. Wade said Fomby's delusions of persecution took the form of unfounded belief that people had conspired to break up his home. Assistant District Attorney Phil Sanders told the jury that -al though the bomb carrying charge was a serious offense Fomby could not be held responsible. Still awaiting trial are three young men arrested in the bomb-laden car with Fomby. Jesse Carrasco, 18; Reynaldo Rameriz.

authorities hope to impress the Kremlin No. 1 man with a wide view of Ameri can life. A prime aim in inviting Khrushchev here has been to dispel misconceptions U.S. officials feel Khrushchev holds about the United States. There are some things Khrushchev wants to see here.

There are others Washington would like to show him. The exact arrangements are still under negotiation. An itinerary now under discussion was reported to include these possible stopping points for Khrushchev: Washington, for a three-day official visit which would include two state dinners given for him and one Khrushchev would give for Eisenhower in return. New York, where United Nations officials said Khrushchev may wish to address the General Assembly. Chicago, and a farm in the Midwest Khrushchev has let it be known he would like to see an American farm.

Detroit's Mayor Louis Miriani, (See RED, Page 3) Russ Chief May Visit With Mao GENEVA (AP)-Soon after visiting America next month Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev may travel to Peiping for a meeting of leaders of the Communist world that is being called by Red China's Mao Tze-tung. Tliis possibility was reported Tuesday night by Allied diplomats. One of the purposes of any isuch trip, according to the in formants, would be for Khrushchev to consult with his Red partners after visiting President Eisenhower in Washington and before receiving Eisenhower in Moscow. Western governments are aware that the Chinese Reds are arranging a big jamboree to mark the 10th anniversary of the founding of their state, around Oct. 1.

Top men of most of the Communist lands are expected to attend what may turn into a sort of "Red summit" meeting. Khrushchev could hardly fail to aboutan hour and 15 minutes.

Unlike most western stars, Henderson indulges in no moans about being typed, "I want to be typed," he says. "I want everybody to think of me as a westerner who can draw and shoot and ride." Unlike many fear mongers, Henderson says television west erns are as secure as a sand burr in a child's foot.

By nightfall the violence had dwindled to scattered demonstra tions and vandalism against shops in the capital.

Two policemen were killed by gunfire from armed rioters and two demonstrators were trampled to death in stampedes set off when police attacked the mobs with tear gas. Official reports said 3G policemen and one demonstrator were wounded but other sources said the number of demonstrators wounded is sure to exceed 100. Many did not report their injuries to police and were treated privately. President Romulo Betancourt suspended two constitutional guarantees in the Caracas metropoli tan area lor 30 days. They are the right to hold public assem blies and the right to demonstrate.

Disturbances began at 11:45 a.m. as a workers' demonstra- iton. Youthful troublemakers joined the crowds and urged them to attack government buildings and offices.
