roxjR utorovD (oitrooir) mail tkxbuhb Sunday. March 90. 1132 Uait and See Attitude Adopted by UN Grouf In Peace Discussions Br EARNEST HOBEHECHT V. P. ttalf Correepondeni . Tokyo, Sunday U.P High United Nation official have adopted a "wait and see" attitude toward armistice to Korea. They do not anticipate an early peace. Some U.N. correspondents on the press train at Munsan are more optimistic. Their guesses on an armistice date range from April 10 to August. The United Press surveyed of . licial and unofficial sources this week and found that most per sons close to the truce talks believe Russia hold the key to to their success or failure. No one could say exactly what Russia, who inspired the talks in the first place, hope to gain by seeing them drag on month after month. There have been waves of opti mising from time to time, some based on actual progress. Some of the most recent optimism was based on remarks by Communist correspondents at Panmunjom. Optimism has resulted also from reports originating in vari ous U.N. capitals, all unconfirm ed. There have been reports that May 1 was set as a "target date" but there has been no confirma tion here. In Tokyo, the highest officials told this correspondent that tney have no idea what is going to hatmen in Korea. They want peace and they have made many rnnrpsinni Rut thev still Want an honorable peace and they are ready to fight again if necessary. In Seoul, 8th Army Command er James A. Van Fleet told United Pres War Correspondent Robert Udick: Considerable Speculation "There has been considerable peculation on the peace target date ever since the armistice talk began last July. However I am not aware of any official current target date. "A 8th Army comander I have made my stand clear re peatedly that I am not connected with the negotiation at Panmun jom and my mission is solely that of guiding the 8th Army in re sisting Communist aggression." At the U. N. advance camp at Munsan, United Press War Correspondent Leroy Hansen polled correspondents covering the negotiations. He reported: "Correspondent here believe a Korean armistice definitely is possible, although one thinks a lasting peace is not "Estimates on when an armi stice will come range from mid April to August. Dates mention ed included April 10, April 23. April 29, July and August. Three major issues remain to be solved: 1. Prisoner exchange. The U. N. stands firm for voluntary repatriation, the Reds want forced return of all regardless of individual desire. 2. Rehabilitation of North Ko rean airfields. The U. N. will agree that certain fields may be repaired. The Communists say there must be no restriction. It appears to be mostly a matter of principle with them, as the present U. N. offer would im pose little control. 3. Nomination of Russia as a neutral truce Inspector. The U.N. does not consider Russia neutral. U.N. negotiators do not like the slow pace of the talks. But they urge the American people and those of other U. N. member nations to be patient. They hope the people will never demand armistice at any price: Patrol Chiefs Meet On Truck Agreement Spokane U.PJ Highway patrol chiefs from Washington, Oregon, and Idaho met here Sat urday in an effort to work out a truck reciprocity agreement on truck licenses. Washington State Patrol Chief James Pryde called the meeting with A. P. Bunderson, Idaho su- perintendent of state police, and Lee Bown, deputy Oregon super intendent of state police. Pryde said the state patrol in Washington has received com plaints from Spokane firms do ing business in Idaho that the state was not living up to the reciprocity idea. ON JOB VOCALLY Galesville.

The pastor record ed his sermon and sent it to church. Astrologer Gives Answer To Criticism of US Women Hollywood UR English anthropologist Dr. E. J. Ding well, who said American women are to dominant in their love life, has his answer Saturday from a Hollywood astrologer. But it must be confessed, the answer from David Sturgis has mora slapstick than logic. Dr. Dingwell recently assert ed that the Independence of the American female has made her a constant disciple of the psy chiatrist's couch. On the other side of the ocean, he said. European girls have happier sex lives because they don't try to be dominant over the male. Conclusion Substantiated Dr. Ding well's conclusions were substantiated by a number of screenland notables, including lovely Jane Carter, Dan Dailey and. of course, Italy's Vittorio Gassman and Denmark's Greta Thysen. Now comes Sturgis with his theory. Whereas Dingwell. from his science of man, hints that America Is degenerating into a matriarchy, Sturgis say it should be a matriarchy in ac cordance with its horoscope and the horoscope of the world. "Adam Rib Capers" The astrologer predict the day is coming when the Olympic games will become the "Adam Rib Capers" at which one female wrestler will grapple with, and subdue. 10 male warriors. "These capers will only be held near hospitals and ceme teries." Sturgis adds grimly. "The English gentleman must become accustomed to the au dacities of the American ladies," Sturgis adds. "They will become bolder as men everywhere be come colder, for centuries end centuries. This happened before in the age of Isis, many eons ago. "It will happen again," Stur gis predicts, "in this age of Mar garet Truman, with Missouri spreading feminine independence over the entire earth.

Wall Street New York (U.R) Steel shares stole the spotlight on the New York Stock Exchange Saturday with gams ranging to more than a point. Outside of the steel group, rails also continued their cur rent advance, moving prices in this group to new high ground since April 8, 1931. ' Expectations in wall street that there will not be a steel strike bolstered sentiment consider ably. The rails met demand on the possibility of an early freight rate hike and sharply higher earnings for most roads for the first two months of 1952.

Marines Reported Hearing Heeded Manpower Goals Washington (OB The Marines disclosed Saturday they are making substantial progress toward their goal of building up to three full divisions and three air wings in the near future. When the Korean war broke out the Marines had two under strength divisions and two air wings. It was decided to build up to three divisions and three wings. Normally, a Marine division consists of three regiments, each having three battalions with about 1,000 or 1,100 combat troops per battalion. Since the decision to organize a third division, the Marines said six new Marine battalions have been activated at Camp Pendleton, Cal. Some sources in dicated that the remaining three battalions will be activated by the end of June, but not all of the nine units In the new divi sion will be at full strength. The third Marine air wing has been authorized to start moving to its new home at the Miami, Fla.. Marine Corps Air station as space becomes available. Itr organization has not developed as rapidly as that of the ground division. First reports of the organiza tion of a third Marine division brought speculation that the Second division, now at Camp LeJeune, N. C, would be trans ferred on paper at least to Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's Western European Defense forces. This has not been con firmed. The First division is fighting with Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway s United Nations forces in Korea. The Senate has passed a bill setting a Marine Corps maxi mum strength limit of 400,000 officers and men. including com bat and supply troops and air men. It also would provide four full strength divisions and four air wings. BIRTHS ROONEY To Mr. and Mrs. Edward. Jacksonville, March 28, 1952, a boy, 7i pounds, at Os teopathic hospital.
