General Albert C Wedemeyer, made to President Truman in 1947, is disclosed to have temper ed its proposal for China aid witn a big "if. Wedemeyer advocatel a five-vear aid program but said Chiang should undertake drastic reforms and should place Man churia under United Nation' trusteeship to keep the Commu nists from taking over. lt was this recommendation re garding Manchuria, Acheson said, which caused the report to be suppressed so long. He said the suggestion lor alienation oi ui nese territory would have caused trouble with the national govern ment i- published at that time. The fact that the department feels the report now can be re leased afford a clue to the publi cation of the entire white paper. Mr. Truman and Acheson evi dently have decided that China' nationalist government i beyond the point where it can be hurt even by bitter criticism. In addition they appear to be lieve that the record Justifies their decision not to undertake any great new aid program to the Chinese nationalists and their determination to break with the past, release the facts as they see them, and lay out new line of anti-communist diplomacy in the Far East. Truman Revamps His Foreign Aid Measure (Continued From Page One) lantlc pact, to Greece and Turkey, Iran, Korea and the Philippines. There was no provision It-f t, as in the original bill, to permit the President to extend aid to any help in the interest of United other nation he believed required States security. Amount Slash Looms "If the President has yielded on one major area of controversy, he can hark up on another," a top Republican on the House foreign affair committee told newsmen, "he will have no choice. He will have to settle for a maller amount and a more limited program." Republicans and a strong group of Democrats on the com mittee, which I considering leg islation to give life to the pro gram, said the President's de cision not to press for the broad powers originally requested amounted to an admission that the entire program can be trim med safely. was browned by fiames.

IAP Wirophotol Garden Requires Plenty Of Water; Evening Is Least Favorable Period Gardens cannot grow without water. When dry weather is ac companied by high temperatures careful watering practice may save you lots of trouble, and loss. First, the quantity of water Is Important. Gardens need at least one inch of water each week; and if this does not fall in rain, It must be applied from a hose. Do not apply it in dally shallow doses, but soak the ground six inches deep at each application. Next come the time to water. The best time is early morning. next dur nir the day when tne sun is shining and the least fa vorable time is in the evening. If necessary to water during the evening, do not wet the leaves of the plants, since they will re main damp all nigm ana mis win encourage 1 mould and fungi. Where there is a humid climate, and home have too much shade, both encourage plant diseases, hv keenine leaves damp. Sun shine is the best preventive, dry I leaves the next, and the last re sort is a fungicide. Lawns should be watered In the mnrnlne. or while the sun Is shining, and never sprinkled wllh a hand nozzle, because the holder tires before the lawn gets enouch. There are many Inex- pensive sprinklers which cperate with little attention ana spreau water evenly. Let them stay long enough In one place to wel it'. soil several Inches deep. Don't Wet Leavos For veeetable earden lt I es pecially Important not to wet the leaves of lettuce, chard, and oth er leaf crops. It is better to keep water otr all vegetaoie leaves, excent when the gun will dry them quickly. Some method of flowing water directly on the oll without washing out miniature gullies Is required. One oi tne best is a canvas hose which leaks, and serves the purpose of an In itial ion ditch. If possinie get one the exact length of your gar den row, so it can be lifted to another spot when one area has been thoroughly soaked. For bushv flowers there are special tube's and nozzle which will spread the water near the root wllbout wetting ine leaves. Manv prefer to use a piece of wood on whlrh water Is allowed to flow directly from the hose, without a nozzle. This is an ef fective spreader. W hile leaves should not be al lowed to remain damp long, most nlants enjoy a morning shower bath, on a day when they will dry quickly. Evergreens need fre quent washing, and this discour age Insects, red spider in par ticular. Don't forget the evergreens and shrubs In you watering schedule.

He asserted 10 of the 15 fires which blackened 49 acre across the state yesterday were caused by clRarets. Cooler weather ha eased the fire situation but Orell said the fire hazard was still great in the Columbia river area.

WHITE Associated Press Foreign New Analyst The official American side of what ha been happening in China is made public today.

REEDSPORT 250 Persons At Old Time Affair The old fashioned carnival put on in Gardiner Saturday after noon and evening by the Lower Umpqua Progressive entertained more than 250 people. A great va riety of games were enjoyed, from standard baseball, dart, and hoop throwing to less common camps of skill, such as pendulum and pin games, and tnrowing raw eggs at a human target. The last mentioned stunt was a sensation, and thanks to the en thusiastic but not too skillful pitching, lt was not too damaging to the targets, Ray and Laury Lusk. Carnival eats, nreslder over bv Elam Frederickson, costumed palmists Fannie Carlson and Do ris Glickman, and sketch artist Betty Lusk. added an authentic atmosphere. Highlights were provided bv the singing and plaving of the Erick son sisters of Gardiner, and Chet Skinner of North Bend. Judging by the number of prizes carried away, and the fa vorable comments of patrons, it was a successful community nrol- ect, and present plans call for a similar entertainment during the coming fall.

Stephens new one. The task of building a new pol Icy on the wreckage of the old Is in the long run one of the most dangerous ever to face American statesmen. In .China and Asia more than half a world is shed ding the chain of it feudal and colonial past. Communism is making a long planned play for the majority of the human race at an opportune moment in world History. What will be the new American policy to counter this? The white paper is vague. Secretary Ache son says merely that America must "encourage all develop ments" in China aimed at throw ing off the "foreign yoke" of Mos cow direced communism. That could mean anything from help ing refugee Chinese students to flying bazookas in to the Mos lems of China's northwest. So the policy itself remains to be shaped, by a special board, and the Job is a tough one for many reason. Some formula must be hammered out that will fit in with U.S. policy elsewhere and still sit passably well with the people most concerned those in Asia. It has to satisfy their chief cri ticism of the old policy that we pay too much attention to Eu rope. They say Europe ia far better equipped industrially than Asia, lives better, is more stable na tionally, and therefore is less sus ceptible to the inroads of commu nism which we say we are out to stop. Vital Questions Pos.d Yet there's the question of whether Asia could assimilate aid like that in Europe, and if so, who could afford it ? Where is the middle ground where what we can do will work with Asiatics? Here in America, internal po litical differences over China and Asiatic policy could strongly in fluence what come out in the end. The administration seeks to get other measures through Con gress too, and compromise may result. But Asia herself may try to In fluence the policy. Any grave cri-1 sis there might well subordinate j the need for long term planning I to that of meeting an emergency. This is possible because the in strument America seek to use in her global battle against Rus sian communism do not always behave according to American wishes. Such an Instrument was Chiang Kai-shek ot China. The best and most persistent Information is that many Asiatic leaders think World War III is Inevitable anyway, as do the communists. In their eye the question may be, why wait any longer? BIBLE SCHOOLS SET Two churche In Glendale are scheduling vacation bible schools In the near future. Both the Pres byterian church and the Church of Christ have scheduled their vacation bible schools to begin on Monday, Aug. 8, at 9 a.m. Each church is planning on out-of-town workers t-i help staff their schools and have planned peppv curricu lums with handwork, Bible study and singing.
