Ambassador Henry Cabot Lodge found himself holding hands with Soviet agents. A little boy of about eight was crying. The Premier picked him up and held him high over his head, one eye on the photographers. He moved forward relentlessly. There was another child, a boy of about five.

Khrushchev patted his shoulder, asked his name. The boy said nothing; he was scared stiff by all this power politics. Finally, the Soviet security men had enough. With visible snarls, they pushed the whole party back toward the train. As he disappeared in the car, i ita Khrush laughed and yelled over his shoulder: "Save Lodge!" Lodge was saved.

officials accompanying Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev have indicated they would like to see no more public needling of the Soviet leader on cold war issues. "If he runs into any more mayors like that one (Mayor Norris Poulson of Los Angeles) he really is likely to pack up his bags and fly home," one official commented. Poulson touched off the biggest rumpus of Khrushchev's U.S. tour Saturday night by challenging him on his statement that "We shall bury you." Khrushchev angrily accused Poulson of distorting the remark and threatened to fly straight back to Moscow. The Premier regained his usual ebullience on a sunny train trip north and, after a warm reception from the crowds here, made it plain he has no intention of cutting short his tour.

Neither Henry Cabot Lodge, U.S. ambassador to the United Nations and Khrushchev's official host, nor Llewelyn Thompson, U.S. ambassador to Moscow, would be quoted. One official complained: "Now he's running into one attack after another about old dead issues. If these mayors want votes, they should do it some other time." Officials indicated they believe further clashes with local and state hosts could adversely affect discussions on the cold war.

In contrast to the reception give" Khrushchev by Poulson, San Francisco Mayor George Christopher was friendly throughout. He even embraced Mrs. Khrushchev and gave her a boquet of flowers.

Byron Saunders went on trial today accused of perjury In investigation of the ICT Insurance Co.

collapse. His lawyers made broad hints that a suspended sentence would be asked for the Tyler attorney who once headed the State Insurance Commission. John Cofer, Saunders' principal attorney, first asked that tha criminal charges against Saunders be postponed until court decision is made on the multj- million dollar civil suit filed against all former officials of ICT. Dist. Judge Ma co Thurman overruled the motion.

Cofer then asked that the indictment accusing Suanders of perjury before the House Investigating Committee March 15, 1957 dismissed. "The Legislature has nothing to do with public justice," he said. "That is for the judicial department." Cofer said Ls is the first in Texas where any one has been prosecuted for perjury before a legislative body. He contended that if SmmUers violated the law he should he charged with false swearing and not perjury. "A false affidavit in this stale is a viplation but it is a less serious violation than perjury which carries such heavy penalties and is not covered by our suspended sentence laws, he said.

Cofer said the sole question before the court is whether Saundm sold property to ICT and received money for it or whether lie v.p.s paid for favors rendered the ICT. Indications were that the choosing of a jury would begin late today or probably tomorrow. Cofer moved that no pictures be permitted during the trial. Thurman said he would reserve decision until the jury is selected. The trial is expected to continue this week and perhaps into next week.

Saunders was indicted of a charge of perjury before the House committee investigating in- su a regulation scand a 1 March 15. 1957. Saunders quit the board to become a Dallas life insurance executive. He now is a lawyer in Tyler. Saunders told the investigators about $7,000 in monthly payments made to him by BenJack Cage, promoter of the ICT Insurance Co.
