"The wise thing at the moment
may be to draw a truce line across

weeks visiting relatives.
This is her third term In Africa
as a missionary. She is supported

Miss Ricks states emphatically
that she is not in it to teach

evangelistic work," she says, add

I am not a martyr."
Her first two terms in Liberia
(1946 and 1950) were each for
three years. Thit term, however,
will be for four years she hopes.
The only thing preventing the

nations to organize rapidly a "col

or indirect Communist aggression

Although the President said hi
didn't wish to discuss Indochina

cause of the delicacy of the situa

there is one good to come out of

The President told newsmen this

3. lying of the Alaskan ana Ha
