This he did, with a crew of three men and with the aid of a couple of flashlights . . . When a sailor has to slog it out in mud and mountains, it makes for some fancy language. Chief DeMott, with the navy 12 years, came here in Septem ber, 1949, from San Diego, via Portland. A flyer with Patrol Wing 10 in the Philippines when World War II began, he saw plenty of action. He flew 82 missions in the battle of Java, Macassar straights and other engagements. Coming home on leave, he returned in 1943 with a torpedo squadron, flying 43 engagements in the Guadalcanal, Munda, Bougainville and Ra baul campaigns. Married, he has a daughter age 16 months.

He then adds: "And we will want to know just Low much we are expected to con tribute to this defense force." 1 have great respect for Senator George and for his opinions.And in many ways I agree with what he says. I imagine there are mil lions of Americans who feel the same way about it. V'e recognize instinctively that in Europe we mustn't walk into the same kind of trap we walked into in Korea. That would be fatal.

Mishaps on the highways many ice-coated and others made slippery hy freshly falling snow killed 523 persons. That was more than 100 above the 1949 Christmas holiday toll. Accidents from miscellaneous causes fires, drownings, falls, etc. took an additional 153 lives. The grim total, one of the largest for any three day holiday period, covered the 78 hours from 6 p. m.

DECEMBER 26, 1950 National Prayer Slated Church Leaders Request Invocation, Not Revelry, For Launching New Year By Tht Associated Prtts A call for mass prayer on the eve of new half century spread today across a troubled United States. With the nation caught in the tightening coils of world conflict, hundreds of thousands of Americans planned to begin the New Year with an invocation rather than revelry. To them, Dec. 31, 1950, will be a day of prayer. The national council ot tnurcnes of Christ of America, representing! more than 31,000,000 members in 29 orthodox and Protestant de nominations, saill that its call for the special prayer day has brought , nationwide response. ; "At the same time," said the Rt. Rev. Henry Knox Sherrill, council president, "spontaneously movements for daily prayer are!j1- rldL'plnninc in nil nat-tc nf Ihn pntin- ! , try and reflect a recognition of the need of mankind for God's gui dance." Sherrill Monday telegraphed his appreciation to i'resident Truman frr endorsing the Dec. 31 day of prayer in his Christmas eve mes sage. From the offices of great reli g'ous organizations and from the pulpits of village churches came word that they would join in thf day's plea for divine help in an ; hour of crisis. ! Leaders of the Methodist, Ameri can Baptist, Presbyterian, Protest nil Kpiscopal and International Convention of the Disciples of Christ have avlded their own call for prayers at morning worships at evening communion services and at walchnight gatherings last ing until the dawn of 1951. The appeal touched all faiths. In Fort Wayne, lnd., the Associ ated Church council is sponsoring a 24-hour prayer vigil, beginning near sunset New Year's eve, and lasting until dawn, I.ocal churches will chime their bells each hour. Members of the Jewish faith have been invited to participate. Dr. Reuben h. Nelson, general secretary of the American Baptist convention, said that daily fellow ship prayer has become a tradition with his denomination "in hours of world tension." He urgetl Baptists to continue daily prayers "throughout Ihe pre sent world emergency." About 9,000,000 Methodists in 40, 000 churches were called upon by Bishop .1. Ralph MaGee, president of the Methodist Church council of bishops, to join in the special year end prayer day. He also urged daily prayer for the leaders of the U. S. and the United Nation "that Gotl will give them wisdom and courage to seek and do his will." Bishop Sherrill urged churches to use the following prayer: "Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, guide, we beseech Thee, the nations of the world into the way of justice and truth and estab lish among them that peace which is the fruit of righteousnss." EXAMINER ON DUTY A driver s license examiner will hp en duty in Roseburg Thursdav and Friday, Dec. 28 and 29, at the city hall between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m Peace Or Survival Hope Of Millions During Christmas Observance Under War Clouds By The Atoriatd PrM. Christians throughout a war-menaced world observed Christmas Monday with a fervent hope for peace or at least survival in the year to come. The Red clouds swirling out of ravaged Korea cast their shadows over Yuletide celebrations in free-dcm-Ioving lands the world over. The worried solemnity of this year's celebration of the birth of Christ was reflected in religious services, in the messages of church and slate leaders and in gatherings about the family hearth. In many homes the customary rejoicing was muted by the know lfdge that sons, husbands or fa thers fallen before the advancing Communist host in Korea would never return. lor others, however, there was a taeasure of cheer in the an nouncement that more than 100. OUO men fighting with the U. N. Forces hail been brought out suc cessfully Christmas eve from a Kef', trap in northeast Korea. President Truman voiced the general feeling in a brief statement f'om his home in Independence, Mo., where he celebraled the holi dav quietly W'ith his family. "This saving f4Dour men in this isolaled beachhead is Ihe best Christmas message I ever had,'1 the President said. The general spirit of solemnity wf mirrored in the annual Chirsi r.ias message of King George VI, broadcasting to Britons all over the world.

Ihe latter charge is the most serious that can be made today in Red China.

Pope Calls For Pray.r Popo Pius XII underlined his Christmas plea for peace hy ex tending holy year indulgences throughout the Catholic world in 1951. He called for a year of prayer, penance and peace. In Communist-ruled Warsaw, Po land's primate, Archbishop Stefan Wyszynski issued a couragenu.'. pastoral lelter read in all churches and calling on the laithful lo be devoted first to God and not lo parly or worldly things. Western Europe, fearful lhat it might be the scene of the next act of Red aggression, shared the gen eral anxiety. West German Chancellor Ade nauer declared peace is the pri mary aim of his government, but added, "(here are situations when even the peaceful must gather their forces and prepare their hearts for the defense of Ihe values of life against a threatening attack." In divided Austria, the interior minister appealed to Soviet Russia to release "thousands' of Aus trian!, taken prisoner in World War II and "still suffering behin I bar bed wire" in Red prison camps.

Working on the theory that ex treme Scottish Nationalists were behind the theft of the flat, rec tangular stone on which British and Scottish kings have been crowned since the days of the Celts, police in England's north ern counties searched automobiles heading north. ' The historic royal symbol was sneaked out of the musty old abbey in the darkress of early niorn iiii?. The thieves broke a large splinter off one leg of Ihe ancient wooden coronation throne, itself a priceless national possession, when lliey dragged the 336-pound slab from its shelf under the seat. Police surmised the thieves at tended a Christmas eve service in the abbey, concealed themselves in a side chapel, then removed the slone. So skillful was their get away that detectives and police were without a clue after an inten sive day's hunt. Brought lo the abbey by Edward I in 1296 from the little Perthshire, Scotland, parish of Scone (Pro nounced Scoon), the slone repre sented the 17th cenlurv union be tween the crowns of England and hcouana. Self Rule Phase Hinted "" Whether or not the exploit was Ihe work of Nationalist Scots, it served to dramalize their demands for more self-rule demands long aired in Scotland and in the Houses of Parliament. Though expressing complete loy alty to the king, almost 2,000 000 Scots last year signed the Scot tish covenant asking governing privileges similar to those held by Northern Ireland. ' The Scots call the stone the "slone of destiny." It was brought to Scone by Scotland's first king, Kenneth I, in the Ninth century. He got it from the Celts, who alrea-ly had worn it smooth as a corona tion scat. Twenty-seven British monarchs have been corwned on it, includ ing the present ruler, George VI. The sandstone slab, which meas ures 26', by 16Mi by 11 inches, with a large rectangle roughly outlined on the top. The historic relic had left the abbey only once ia Ihe 654 years since it was first brought there. In 1657 it was taken to Westminster hall for the installation of Oliver Cromwell as lord protector.

Forct To Quit Korea, U.S. To Leave Formosa TOKYO (IP) South Korean and Chinese Communist t r o o p i tangled in a fierce battle tonight just south of the 38th parallel and 28 air miles northeast of Seoul, the endangered South Korean cap ital. Seoul itself was being rapidly emptied by citizens fleeing the gathering storm of combat. The clash between Reds and Korean troops was fought in the Korangpo area, 10 miles east of Knesong, transportation center on the route from Pyongyang to Seoul. Republic of Korea (ROK) force headquarters described the action as "fierce. It also announced that Rer" patrols were sparring with United Nations forces all along the ROK-held section of the front lines. The U. S. Eighth army, guarding the western end of the U. N. de fense positions, also reported Com munist patrols edging south of the parallel. The communists were at tempting to determine UN posi tions. Tense UN forces continued to await a mil scale attack by the enemy forces. While allied defenders regrouped ff.r battle, new threats came from Red China's high command tor ait foreign l'-oops to get out of the country entirely. Lt. Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway sreceeded I.t. Gen. Walton II Walker, who was killed Satur day in a jeep accident. Ridgway. a paratroop general in Wcrld War II, took over com mand as the Eighth army in new positions along the, border to South Korea was awaiting an imminent Communist offensive. The 10th corps' evacuation was completed Sunday from Hungnam, 130 miles deep in North Korea, and most of Ihe troops already were in the old southeast Korea bench he td around Pusan and Pohang ports. Get Out. Chinese Order The Red military leader, Chu Teh, warned U. N. troops to get out of Korea, the United States to pull its military forces out of For mosa, and demanded a seat for Red China in the United Nations. Chu, in a Peiping broadcast, did not say what Red China would do if the non-Communist nations sup porling the republic of Korea re fusell to leave. But the Chinese and Red Ko rean masses swarming all along the parallel 38 border to South Korea made his language clear. General MacArthur said a Com munist offensive was expected momentarily. The U. N. com mander said the Chinese and Ko rean Reds had massed troops, supplies and artillery along the new front; they awaited only, the signal to strike In force. And MacArthur laid earlier the Chinese have committed more than 1,000,000 veteran troops t the Korean campaign. Evacuation Completed Allied troops completed Sunday the evacuation of their last strong hold in North Korea, at the port Hungnam. The U. N. navy evacuated 1Q..,000 Ain?riran-S o u t h Korean, British and Puerto Rican troops and nearly 100,000 non-Communist North Korean civilians. MacArthur said the U.
