Secretary of State Acheson suggest
this country may follow suit be
fore long.
Indo-China lies squarely athwart
the southward course of the Asia
tic Reds. Its Viet Namese border
is now lined with Chinese Comm
unist troops who have swept t.e
last Nationalist soldiers from thei'
path.
Native forces rebelled against
the return of French authority to
Viet Nam after World War II. The
French set up a republic there
but the rebels, led by Minh. stiU
weren't satisfied. Guerrilla fight
ing between Minn's forces and the
French has gone on almost con
tinuously since 1946. France sent
in nearly 100,000 of its best troops
Last year the French put Bao
Dai, former emperor of the state
of Annam, in charge of a rival
government. They hoped he would
win a large part of the Viet Nam
ese away from Minh, but the effort
has largely failed. Anti-French, the
natives view Bao Dai strictly as a
French puppet. Though it is doubt
I ul they want communism, they
have turned to Minh as the only
alternative.
He has a large regular army
supported by many partisans, lie
controls at least 80 per cent of the
region, although the French have
managed to hold the larger cities
It is regrettable that the wert
ern powers must consider recog
nizing a leader like Bao Dai who
controls so little of the territory
he is supposed to govern. The
move would violate all normal
rules of diplomatic practice.
But this is no time for diplo
matic niceties. Nor is it the mo
ment to worry about possible flaws
In Bao Dai's character. What is
important is the report that Minh
already is receiving aid from the
Chinese Reds and may be expect
ed to get more and more in the
months ahead.
We have no choice but to bacc
Bao Dai's regime and aid the
French and other forces resisting
the rebels. This is the place U
make a stand, to check the south
ward flow of communism before
it engulfs not only Indo-China but
Siam, Malaya, Burma and Indo
nesia. The French troops represent a
hard core around which to build
an adequate defense. Seldom if
ever again will we have this much
advantage in attempting to stem
the tide. We would be foolish and
reckless to let it slip away.

Illicit Romance
Ends In Tragedy
NEW YORK. Feb. 21 -VPi- A
buxom blonde, trapped by a scrili
bled note of death and devotion,
was accused today of choking a
married lover to death as he slept
in their hotel room.
Police said Mrs. Barazani, 17, of
Manhattan, admitted she strangled
Anthony Gallo, a 36-year-old liquor
company truck driver.
Two days of drinking in taverns
and staying overnight in hotels led
up to the slaying.
A note near the body read "He
made me do this and I love him.
Barbara."
Police quoted her as saying she
strangled Gallo after a stormy,
four-month romance.
She said they had quarreled fre
quently about both getting divorces
so they could marry each other
She declared Gallo had beaten her
a number of times for refusing to
leave her husband, Albert, a butch

3 Wreck Causes
, SALEM 'fit Three broken rules
are responsible for more than half
of Oregon s traffic crashes. Secre
tary of State Earl T. Newbry said
Saturday.
These three rules are virtually
the same throughout the country
Newbry said. He listed them as:
1. Intersection rule. The car on
the right has the right of way.
Two out of five Oregon accidents
occur at intersections.
2. Following rule. If you run
into another car's rear, it's always
your fault; you're supposed to stay
far enough behind that you are
safe even if the driver ahead stops
suddenly without signaling.
3. Speed rule. You must drive
at a "safe" speed, regardless of
posted speed limits. Excessive
speed causes one-fourth of Ore
gon's traffic fatalities.

The American licensed Der

conspiracy that caused Moscow
to reimpose last month the dealt

"sources close to the Soviet con

Rumors of this have caused consid
erable disquiet in Karlshorst I Rus

has not yet been fully uncovered "
The aim of the plot, according
to Der Abend, was the creation. of
a great Russian republic with its
capital at Leningrad.
"The conspirators feared that
the expansionist policy of the Sta-lin-Malenkov
clique could lead the
Soviet Union dangerously close to
war," the newspaper said.
"They realized that promises
during the war of a higher living
standard for the peoples of the
Soviet Union were lies and decep
Uon."
Der Abend identified the leader
of the plot as a Marshal Govorov,
commandant of the Leningrad 1
military district until relieved in
1946.
( Marshal Leonid A. Govorov
was the leader of the defense of 1
Leningrad in World War II and di-
reeled the Soviet offensives that
hurled back the Germans' north
