2 The Newi-Review, Roseburg,
Methodists Would
Admit Red China
To United Nations
PORTLAND (AP) Red China
iihould be trimmed to the U.N.
the Oregon Methodist Conference
lays.
But the conference says it with
a minority dissent attached.
In approving a resolution call
ing for the admission, the confer
ence Thursday added that "safety
and well-being of refugees from
the Chinese Communist dictator
ship, especially in Formosa"
should be safeguarded.
A Salem attorney, Ervin Pot
ter, said if it is necessary to have
a protective phrase in the resolu
tion asking for recognition, Ited
China is not ready for member
ship. Max McMillen, Grants Pass,
opposing admission, said the pur
pose of keeping China out of the
U.N. was to demonstrate opposi
tion to enslavement of people of
tbe world.
But the Rev. Horace H. Mounts,
Bcaverton, countered it was time
to stop burying heads in the sand.
"Other nations are going to
move ahead and face this issue."
he said, adding it will lead to
healthy exchange of ideas.
The Rev. Norman Thomas,
Portland, said other anti-Christian
nations are in the U.N.
The conference, which closes
Friday with ministerial assign
ments, got a minority report on
the U.N. question which said more
study and prayer should precede
Red China's admission.
Support of Sunday business
rlosure and support of the activi
ties of Protestants and Other
Americans United for Separation
of Church and State were voted.

Eisenhower Visits
Base At Quantico
QCANT1CO, Va. (AP) - Pres.
ident Eisenhower came to this Ma
rine base Friday for a review of
America's global defense strategy.
The President arrived in the
rain after a 45-minute drive over
the 35 miles from Washington. He
had intended to make the trip by
helicopter but heavy rain washed
out that plan.
Old soldier Eisenhower is here
for a Defense Department annual
conference which brings together
all the top brass military and
civilian in the nation's defense
establishment.
He went directly to a briefing
on the Pacific sitaUon by Adm.
Felix B. Stump, commander in
chief of all United States Pacific
forces.
Stump's review presumably
dealt with:
Formosa defenses by the U. S.
7th Fleet and air units.
The picture regarding the big
U.S. base at Okinawa.
The demilitarization program in
Japan.
The routine but always present
problem of antisubmarine patrol
and aerial patrol of the seaward
extension of the dewline radar
warning svstem.
The President also arranged to
be on hand for morning talks by
Allen W. Dulles, chief of the ten
tral Intelligence Agency, and
Christian A. Herter, undersecre
tary of state.
