'Connecticut Yankees' Told To Watch Manners Overseas WASHINGTON UPD State Department has this bit of advice for anyone traveling abroad: Don't get into trouble. Once you're in. the department says, there's nut much that can be done to get you out. Other countries have standards of jus tice that are not always the saun as those in the i'nited States. State Department officials em phasized that an American visit ing a foreign country must ac quaint himself with the laws of that nation and understand that he cannot expect exactly the same treatment he might get at home. An example, they said, arc traf fic cedes in .Mc.-ico. These laws are stiff, more so than in this country. a:id violators arc usually jailed until trial, which may be delayed for days. ' Follow Routine Procedure the department follows a rou tine procedure once an American is anestej.

GEORGE'S SUPER SHELL BLUE MOUNTAIN LAUNDRY Nehru Stands Calm By Difficulties Of Tho By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Steff Writer The influential Times of India o' long ago thumbnailed Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru this w ay : "At one time he had a solution to every difficulty; ("day he faces difficulty in every solution. It was an apt description of Nehru, who in 1954 signed the five principles of peaceful co existence with Hed China a id to day finds himself embroiled in a border dispute with Red China piling upon him woes deeper than the Himalayan snows. In recent days these have been Nehru statements of position : In a letter replying to Bed Chi nese Premier Chuu F.n lai s pro posal that they meet Dec. 26 to negotiate either in China or Kan goon, Burma: "I find it quite impossible to go to Rangoin or any other place within the next few days." Negotiate, Negotiate, Negotiate In Parliament: "We will negotiate and negoti ate and negotiate to the bitter end." On a CBS television broadcast: "1 don't think, however strong China may be, it will succeed in concluding India." For centuries the Chinese have regarded them ! selves as a super race, an opinion "more Chinese than Communist." Together they help to create the picture of a confused and harried man caught in the web of his own neutralism, facing a problem for which he himself sees no solution, and lendii ( additional force to the further comment by the Times of India: As the years rolled by the very foundation on which Nehru's prestige and reputation rested be gan to wear him down." Nehru has run head on into a cynicism for which his philosophy leaves him ill-prepared. It was this same sort of Com munist cynicism which once led the late Josef Stalin to reply to a warning about the world influ ence of the Roman Catholic Pope: How many divisions has the Pope?"
