Korea, of course, is not the
world at large. And what the ulti
mate Communist intention there
may be is still a question.
The next item on the agenda
of the truce negotiators may
throw more light on it.
Allies Want Assurance
This next problem is how tn
make "concrete arrangements for
the realization of a cease-fire and
armistice in Korea, including the
composition, authority and func
tions of a supervising organization
for carrying out the terms . . .
The Allies have expressed de- j? T '
termination to have a foolproof & Srf
cnecK against any enemy military
buildup behind a truce screen.
This means establishment of
security teams which will have
access to rear areas.
Truce by Christmas, about
which some of the folks in Korea
have been talking, has a nice
sound, but could produce vast
disappointment. No truce at all
is yet assured.

Tiny has bettered the United Nations life by a year and

hgene Radio Man Tells Lions
Of Freedom's Fight for News
HelatlonshiDs between cress and

Bigene Radio Commentator Glenn
.Sadler.
Stadler stressed mainr nrohlems
;! the press in international, na
fitmnil and local affairs. He said
'.goal of press and radio is com
freedom of information

p it is not an easy goal to at-

Meting and dissemination In
mtor-controlled nations such as
"Ssij; Spain, Argentina, pre-
Germany and other places.
Dictatorships, he said, fear the
truth and fear the public will
learn the truth.
Stadler warned the Lions that
attempts to censor news by local
governmental agencies can lead to
censorship at higher levels, to the
danger of citizens of the nation.
Such censorship, he said, could
lead to dictatorship in America.
He urged all local civic groups,
governmental agencies and or
ganizations" to appoint a public
relations chairman who can co
operate with press and radio in
matters concerning news about
those groups.
Albany Man Pays $150 Fine
For Racing, Reckless Driving
COTTAGE GROVE After run-1 to Wells, and another police car
ning away from a state police car ; set up a roadblock at Walker
in his midget British-built auto.
an Albany motorist finally was
halted by a roadblock and fined
$150 in Justice Court here Satur
day on a reckless driving charge.
The driver, Marion P. Krug, 24,
told Judge John Wells he didn't
know a police car was following
him until he was stopped by an
other state vehicle about four
miles north of Cottage Grove.
Wells said Monday a state
police car chased Krug from near
Drain toward Cottage Grove but
couldn't catch him. The officer
finally radioed ahead, according
where Krug was 'stopped.
Wells quoted the state officer as
saying his car reached 92 miles
per hour at one point in the
chase.
Krug told Wells his small
vehicle, a Mig, could exceed 120
miles per hour.
The motorist said he had been
visiting in California and was in
a hurry to get home.

Fasscngcrs Hide Inside
As a ship proceeds upstream
on the 45-mile route to Saigon,
passengers and crew get a full,
first-hand look at the thick jun
gle and swamps on both sides of
the river.
But the passengers don't get
a chance to gape for long. As the
river narrows and the fringes of
the jungle come closer, passen
gers are ordered to stay within
the ships salons.
Soldiers place the light machine
guns at strategic points on star
board and port decks and keep
their eyes trained on the jungle,

Christmas Seals
Already Collecting
For Worthy Cause
JUNCTION CITY Judge W.
C. Evans, Christmas seal 'chair
man for the Junction City and
Cheshire areas, announces that
the seals for the 45th annual
Christmas seal sale have been
mailed out and returns are be
ginning to come in.
About this time, a gunboat
flying the French tricolor shows
up and follows in the wake of the
passenger or cargo ship.
The Vietminh guerrillas prob
ably would have little chance of
doing any serious damage to a
big shop, but that doesn't stop
them from occasionally taking
shots at crew members and pas
sengers who look like good tar
gets.
Even though the major part of
the French fighting against the
Vietminh is presently concen
trated In Northern Indochina,
there are still islands of terri
tory held by guerrillas not far
from Saigon itself. Nobody ven
tures far from Saigon without an
adequate escort.

His Own Uncle
In VLT Show
For 10 days starting Thurs
day, eight-year-old Mike Krenk
will become his own uncle.
Mike, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Marvin Krenk, 2003 Fairmount
Blvd., has a part in the next
Very Little Theatre play, "Our
Town," which opens a 10-day
run Thursday.
This part requires him to por
tray a brother to a girl who in
real life is his mother, Mary
Krenk. Consequently, as his
mother's brother in the play, he
becomes a play uncle to his real
life role.
Complicated? Just be glad he
isn't cast as his mother's father,
then he'd be his own grandpa.
