This assertion by press officer Lincoln White was in line with a statement by Secretary of State Dulles in Alaska. Dulles said the United States hopes Communist China's cancel lation of the Quemoy cease-fire will be shortlived and the truce will be reinstated promptly.

The panel agreed that Commun ist China's aim was to eventually drive the United .States clear out of the Far F.ast, from the Philip pines to Japan. Japanese policy Kuroda presented the Japanese policy in Southeast Asia. He said that Japan placed trade first, then politics in her international relations. "Japan is trying to trade with Red China," Kuroda said, "but the Communist philosophy is poli tics first, then trade, so that Japan's pro-western feelings do not fall in line with the Red Chi nese ideology." Kuroda added that Japan wants Asian progress through close re • lations with Southeast Asia, but that her ultimate interest is ex panding her economy.

Jeff Williams did it By PAT TREECE Emerald Staff Writer ‘‘Something inside just said •go’.’’ So Jeff Williams, junior in journalism, explained a trip that took him five months and led him to hitch-hike the world through such diverse places as Ireland and India, Rome and Hong Kong, the Persian desert and The Philippines. During one phase of his trip, Jeff crossed what is reputedly the worst desert in the world, and nearly lost his life, not to the bandits for which the area has been known, but to heat ex haustion. “We were crammed into a bus: Persians, Pakistanis, and me, traveling and I got quite sick in this little Persian town.” "There was sympathy but no aid until an American teacher, returning from Beirut, heard about the sick American, came and got me, and took me to a military post.” There he was well taken care of, said Jeff, and charged only slightly for room and board, nothing for the medi cal treatment. “Really lucky” “That’s how it was all the way \ I was just really lucky about everything,” he said earnestly. To illustrate, he listed crises and near-crises that he missed or escaped unscathed from. “In Ireland, where there is a great deal of bad feeling be tween the northerners and south (Continued on page 8) the various meetings, if only to tak advantage of the excellent opportunities to hear such speak ers as Marquis Childs and Alfred Neal.
