YMCA Speaker At Rotary
Lauds Korean Nation, Urges
Continuance Of U. S. Help
. The need for aid to Korwv "democracy's forgotten front"
wes explained to Roseburg fteiariani Thursday noon by George
A. Fitch, world services representative of the Young Men's
Christian association.
"It Is of the greatest Importance to continue our eld to
Korea in every way end form," the YMCA official maintained.
"Korea Is one of the most important bastions of democracy
today," he said, "and we must help maintain it."
The veteran of 37 years in the
Orient told his audience of the
important part the YMCA is play
ing, and will continue to play with
the aid of America, in Korean wel
fare. Fitch pointed out that work
ers as well as money are needed
to do the job. Actually, he said,
the Koreans have shown that they
can support their own activities
if they are aided by United States
supervisory personnel.
Before backgrounding his listen
ers with a short summary of past
events in Korea, Fitch told how he
has, "in two years in the little
known" country, seen more accom
plishments than any other place j
in his entire career. Before that
time, he spent most of his 37 years
of service in China.
Red Menace Present
Pointing out the need for contin
ued aid to Korea by the U.S., Fitch
told of the precarious situation in
the divided country. North of the
38th parallel is the Red-trained
and Red-directed army of North
Korea. South of the line stands
the U.S. -trained but Korean-directed
South Korean army. Thousands
have been killed in skirmishes
along this border, Fitch stated,
but there has been no actual in
vasion by either side. The division
of the country was granted Russia
at the Yalta conference; a very
bad blunder, in Fitch's opinion.
The north half of Korea pro
duces 90 percent of the power and
85 percent of most minerals, but
the southern part is mainly agri
cultural. In Fitch's opinion, it is
added a professional touch to the
well-rounded performance of the
amateurs. He sang "Old Man
River" and "Gianina Mia."
Gambler's Heavy
Rake-Off Bared In
Grand Jury Probe
NEW YORK, May 19(,P) As
sistant district attorney Alfred H.
Scotti charges that big-time gamb
ler Frank Erickson has a financial
finger in a 685.000 eambline nip
dished up in a fancy Florida re
sort.
Scotti said in court that Erick
son gets a cut from a gaming
room operated at the swank Colo
nial Inn, located near Hallandale,
Fla., between Miami and Hollyr
wood. Hallandale is the train stop
for the gulfstream race track.
The Florida establishment netted
a profit of $685,538 in one year for
nnexson ana us fionaa and De
troit, Mich., owners. Scotti aaid.
He declared Erickson's cut of
five percent netted him $34,276
for the period.
The assistant district attorney
said the information was revealed
in records seized May 2 in Erick
son's Park Avenue offices.
Erickson, admitted operator of
a coast-to-coast $12,5O0,00O-a-year
bookmaking business, recently ap
peared before a Senate investigat
ing committee.
Records seized in the raid may
be heid for scrutiny by the district
attorney's office, general sessions
court Judge John A. Mullen ruled
yesterday.
A grand jury has been probing
Erickson's gambling activities
since the raid on his office.

remarkable the way the southern
Koreans have managed to get by
without the industry of the north.
Despite the myth propagated by
the Japanese, the Koreans are phy
sically superior, the most hospit
able people in the world, very gen
erous, deeply religious and capa
ble of great endurance, the world
traveler said.
Early Ganius Displaytd
Koreans were the first to print
with movable, metal type. They
were the first to have ironclad
battleships, which they used to de
feat the Japanese in 1493. They
have a very scientific alphabet
which is easily learned. ,
Fitch cited the recent interna
tional marathon race at Boston
as an example of Korean physical
capabilities. Three Koreans, were
entered, and they won first, second
and third places in a field of 40.
To show their hospitality, the
speaker pointed out that the south
ern Koreans have cared for three
million northerners who have fled
the Communists.
The speaker told of several in
stances of generosity, proving that
all we have to do is give the people
the know-how and they will do the
rest.
Oriental Religion Discarded
There are more Christians per
capita in the land of 30 million
than in any other country of the
world. About three-fourths are
Protestant and one-fourth Roman
Catholic. Religions of Oriental or
igin have died out. All the Japa
nese Shinto shrines have oeen lorn
down. There are 53 new churches
in Seoul alone, one with a mem
bershin of 4.550.
The ymcas were closed auring
the Japanese occupation, except
for one in Seoul, the capital city.
Now there are 19 in the city and
three more being formed.
The student YMCA has been,
and will continue to be, a chal
lenge to Red cells operating in Ko
rean educational institutions, Fitch
said. "It is up to us whether Ko
rea will be on our side in the
future as a Christian democracy,
or whether the country will be a
part of the iron curtain," he said.
The YMCA worker told briefly
of the history leading up to present
day Korea and some adventures
he has had in past years.
He told of the steps leading up
to Japanese domination in 1910 and
of the recent "rebirth of the re
public and emergence from posi
tion as a slave state."
Education, Aid Sought In U.S.
Fitch related how he has helped
many Koreans to come to the U.S.
for education and aid, including
President Dr. Syngman Rhee and
two fellow countrymen, the latter
smuggled out as servants during
Japanese control of the country.
He also told of the generosity and
friendship of Kim Koo, who was
recently assassinated. Kim Koo
was president of the government in
exile in China during the war and
long a leader in the Korean fight
for independence.
Fitch, who organized the Seoul
club of Rotary International, is a
past president of the Shanghai iand
Chungking clubs. He was acting
mayor of Nanking for a time dur
ing the war. He was born in China
and educated in the United States.
The YMCA representative was
introduced by fellow Rotarian Dr.
