Third World War Would Destroy
Civilization, MacArthur Convinced
By Earnest Hoberecht
United Press Correspondent
Tokyo, Jan. 28 (U.PJ Gen.
Douglas MacArthur Is convinced
that a third world war would
destroy civilization as we know
"'That conviction and some
others held by the supreme
commander can be set forth with
assurance on this, his 70th birth
day anniversary, by this cor
respondent who has been around
his headquarters for four and a
half years.
Among those convictions are
the following:
1. Modern war Is so destruc
tive that it must be outlawed
completely. .
2 A ban on individual weap
ons such as the atomic bomb and
Problem Of Bad
Checks Worse,
Kiwanis Club Told
The fictitious check problem is
getting worse because of the
carelessness oi ousi"--aaiuc..,
It is up to businessmen to stop
this type of crime, Ray Clark,
manager of the Medford hotel,
declared in a talk to Medford
Kiwanis club yesterday noon at
Rogue Valley Country club.
Clark said that $800 million
dollars is lost each year by firms
and individuals who cash bad
checks. He brought out that there
would be a tremendous saving
during the next 30 days if mer
chants would tighten up on
check cashing.
Many Too Eager
The speaker brought out that
businessmen in many cases have
been too eager for business to
ask for proper identification of
customers presenting checks. He
itated that checks should be re
fused H a person is not known
or positively identified. ,
Clark suggested the use of
trick questions to test strangers,
and advised businessmen to meet
several times per week with key
employees to discuss means of
halting check artists.
Saying that law enforcement
groups are not agencies lor col
lection on bad "paper,' Clark
asserted that it is up to mer
chants to give police "something
to work with" to enable capture
and .prosecution of bad check
writers.
10,000 Professionals
There are 10,000 professional
writers of bad checks in the
United States and thoasands of
amateurs, according to Clark.
Chief of Police Clatous Mc
Credie spoke briefly and advised
that merchants should lock blank
checks in their safes at night and
take other precautions in order

pink slips of paper and receiving
money in return.
"A lottery," the policeman de

Szeto Into court.
He was freed when authorities
found there was no one around
who could read Chinese.
