10 Th News-Review, Roieburg, Or Frl., Jon. 13, 1950 Russia Building Trouble By Grabbing Northern Slices Of China. Secy. Acheson States WASHINGTON, Jan. 13. UP) Secretary of State Acheson said Thursday that Russia now Is busy detaching the northern provinces of China and "attaching them to the Soviet union." The secretary said that this process Is complete In Manchuria and nearly so In Outer Mongolia. , And, he said, the Communist regime in China Itself has de veloped new methods and techniques to help the Russian menace and provide "insidious weapons of penetration." Nothing puts the cart more sol idly before the horse, the secre tary said, than the statement it hears nearly every day that "the real Interest of the United States in the Far East is to stop the spread of Communism." Of course this government is interested in that, he hastened to add. But it is Interested for a reason far more deeply rooted than the question of conflict with Russia, he said. America's real interest, he said, is in the Asiatic people as people, it is in protecting their o Suit Yourself at Joe Richards Protect every side Castles were built for protection against attack from all sides.

It is to guard these, he said, that the United States wants to check the Communist menace. Acheson said that Russia's de signs on Manchuria are "a single most Important fact" in the Far Eastern picture. Warns United States The secretary warned that the United States people and its gov ernment must avoid "folly or foolish adventures" which would obscure this fact. The United States, he added, must keep its purposes "perfect ly above board." "We must not deflect the right eous anger of the Chinese peo ple that must Inevitably develop against Russia against ourselves." By trying to detach the Man- churlan provinces, Acheson de clared, Russia is putting its "puppets in China in a position of "awful responsibility for which they must some day account." Acheson swung into his discus sion of Russia and the Chinese situation after first taking some cracks at senatorial critics Sen ator Taft (R) of Ohio in particu larof the administration's For mnsa policy. He referred to Taft only as a "distinguished statesman who had said he had no doubt that some sincere aid to China some time ago would have resulted in different conditions now, and no doubt that a small amount of aid now can "solve the problem in Formosa." Acheson Jibed that this states man was a man who switches between a position of some doubt and "no doubt." Turning to China, Acheson said the Chiang Kai-shek government "disintegrated" because the Chi nese people themselves lost pa tience with Chiang "in their mis ery." Acheson said the Chinese peo ple "didn't bother to overthrow this government; they simply ig nored it." The Communist did not create this condition, he emphasized, but the Communists are "shrewd enough" to capitalize on this situation. Negro First Citizen Choice Rapped By Negro PDPTT.AMn Tun 11 IJD. The selection of a "Negro First citizen- was attacked Thursday by a Negro leader as "infamous, stupid, and dishonest." Edwin C. Jjrry, secretary of the Urban league, who In a pre. vlous year was named as the "Negro first citizen" himself, said he objected to singling out one Negro in that fashion. Several other Negro leaders ob jected to the method of selection, saying It was not careful enough. The Negro Democratic society, which makes the selections, nam ed Oliver E. Smith this year. Smith said the society made er rors in listing some of his board affiliations. The Negro Democratic society has only a few members.

Trying To Sell 2.5 Million Pounds Of Butter SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 13-UB The government has 2,500.000 pounds of butter stored in Far West warehouses and Is trying to unload it on the trade but, so far, there have been no takers. The office of the Production and Marketing administration, Department of Agriculture, said the butter was part of more than 100,000,000 pounds bought in the Midwest under the price support program. . It was shipped to the Pacific coast last fall because the Far West was considered a deficit area, meaning that it consum ed more butter than It produces. The anticipated shortage never developed. So, having guessed wrong, PMA would like to write off its liability. The consignments Included 1, 000,000 pounds each to the San Francisco and Los Angeles ar eas and 500,000 pounds to the Pacific Northwest, the PMA of fice said. The butter was bought under congressional authority to sup port farm prices, a PMA spokes man said, and must be disposed of at a price that includes the transportation differential. Right now in the Far West buy ers can purchase butter on the open market cheaper than they tan uuiain me government but ter. The wholesale free market price is around 64 cents a nonnH for Grade A and 63 cents for uraae u.

Distributor of Hancock Petroleum Products For Douglas County Statehood For Hawaii Favored By House Group WASHINGTON UP) A special House public lands subcommittee has issued a strong recommenda tion for Immediate statehood for Hawaii. The subcommittee, headed by Rep. Miles (D-NM), urged in a report to committee chairman Peterson (D-nal that the prom ise of statehood long held out to the people of Hawaii be promptly fulfilled. It (the subcommittee) believes that action at this time is in the national interest." The seven-member subcommit tee spent six -days in Hawaii this fall enroute to and from a tour of Guam, Samoa and the trust territory of the Pacific Islands. "The committee found Hawaii more aggressively determined to achieve statehoood than at any time in the past," the special re port said. This position has been "strengthened rather than weak ened by the serious economic situation" resulting from militarv and naval cutbacks and six months strike of longshoremen last year, it added.. 'The emphasis given to local responsibility by the federal ad ministration and the Congress in meeting these problems has caus ed people in Hawaii to feel more strongly than ever that the addi tional local authority and greater representation in Washing ton that would come with state hood should be granted at once." The committee said prompt en actment of the Hawaii statehood bill, now pending on the House calendar, "would strengthen the position of this country amon? people of the Pacific islands and the Far East."
