Glimmer of Hope In Peace Negotiations In Red Prisoner Hint By HOMER JENKS United Press Corespondent There is a glimmer of hope in the long-deadlocked Korean truce negotiations. The Communists for the first time have hinted they are willing to compromise on the sole is sue blocking an armistice whether Korean and Chinese war prisoners must be returned to the Reds against their will. The Reds dropped a hint of compromise last Thursday. Then, reluctant to commit them selves further in public, they asked for secret sessions to dis cuss it further. That looked as though they might be in a bar gaining mood, and the United Nations consented. Confer In Secrecy For four days now, the two sides have been conferring un der a pledge of secrecy in the big tent beside a dusty road at Panmunjom. Nothing has leaked out on how the negotiations are going, but it is clear they have reached a crucial stage. The outcome will determine whether there is to be an armistice within the next few weeks or months more of swapped insults and frustrating debate. Only the paragraph relating to repatriation of war prisoners remains to be settled in the armi stice argreement. The other 62 paragraphs already have been agreed upon. Bitter Debate That one paragraph No. 51 in the truce pact has been the subject of bitter debate ever since last December 22. It was on that date the U. N.'s Red Adm. Ruthven E. Libby first served notice on the Communists that the Allies would not force prisoners to go back to the Red side against their will. And the U. N. has stuck to this position ever since. The Communists from the be ginning have demanded that all prisoners be repatriated, at the point of bayonets if necessary. They stuck to it until last Thurs day. Then they began hedging. They submitted a proposal which chief U. N. delegate Maj. Daily Weather Report FORECAST Medford and vicinity: Fair and warm and continued dry through Tuesday. Low tonight 53. High Tues day 95-100.

Gen. William K. Harrison cau tiously said "may be important and may not be." Another Allied spokesman said the proposal was "loaded with gimmicks." The text was not announced, but the. proposal seemed to boil down to this: Proposal Outlined "Let's compile new lists of prisoners, grouping them by na tionality. Then we're willing to let all prisoners listed as South Koreans who joined our Army and then were captured by you choose whether to stay on the Allied side or return to us. "But all other prisoners, be they North Koreans, Chinese or United Nations, must be return ed to their respective sides." This marked the first time the Reds have accepted even a lim ited conception of voluntary re patriation, but it didn't go any where near far enough to sat isfy the U. N.'s demand that all prisoners be given the right to refuse to go home. Wall Street New . York (U.R) Republican antics at their Chicago conven tion Monday detracted interest from the stock market. Transac tions fell off to their lowest level since June 17t Wall Streeters, remembering their poor guess in 1948, didn't try to predict the outcome of the convention. They read the dis patches with apparent interest, however and remained aloof from the market. The main body of stocks held in a fractional area. Steels ig nored an unsettled strike enter ing its sixth week and held steady. Motors were steady to easier. Rails were mostly lower.

Bring the Children They Are Always Welcome FREE PARKING Monday, July 7, 1952 Oregon Delegation At Chicago Ready For Fight For Ike Chicago (U.R) Oregon's full 18-man, Eisenhower-pledged delegation to the Republican Na tional convention was on the convention floor in International Amphitheater here Monday, ready to "go down the line" for the general. State Sen. Howard C. Belton, Canby, a member of the dele gation, said "we will stay with the general until released by him." Most, if not all, of the dele gation were expecjed to support a motion by Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., Eisenhower's floor manager, to prohibit contested delegates from voting on the seating of other contested dele gates. The delegation met Sunday to map out convention voting plans after a breakfast meet ing attended by Sen. Robert A. Taft. t State Sen. William E. Walsh, Coos Bay, a member of the cru cial Credentials committee of the convention, told the delega tion the tactics employed by Taft forces in voting most of the contested delegates to Taft, have, in his opinion, gained del egates for Eisenhower. Walsh said "this experience on contests from the South con vinces me more than ever that in Oregon we have the soundest election system." Other members of the dele gation said they were more en thusiastic than ever over their state's primary election system of binding delegates to the choice of the voters.

MIGHTIEST OF MOTION PICTURES! CECIL B-DEMlLLE'S Coming Holly A A AAA' A AAA As We Live PATIENCE. TACT ARE NEEDED WITH ELDERLY When people reach old age, they need special handling. You cannot treat them as you would a younger person because their mental makeup is not that of a younger person. This is the prob lem that is bothering this young woman. Q. My mother is a nervous, high - strung woman. When ever my sister comes to tee her there is a heated argument. I admit our mother is usually wrong but my sister, even when she saw our mother was becoming upset and losing control of herself, wouldn't ;, slop, even when my Mother told her to. I can't seem to make my sister understand that she tho'uld end the argu ments when she sees our mo ther getting so upset. My sister always has to have the last word. Am I right in say ing that we should have pa tience with her?" A. Everyone who comes in contact with your mother or any elderly person should have pa tience. It takes more than that to handle them proper ly. You must have tact, un d e r standing, and a high de gree of kind ness. As people begin to go downhill phys Dr. Hurlock ically, as they invariably do with advancing age, they go down hill mentally too." Their ability to reason, to remember, and to be logical in their" thinking de teriorates. Under such conditions, you really cannot argue with them. You must let them call black white, if they want to do so. And under no circumstances should you contradict them and try to prove that white is white. This will only upset them and when they are upset, their thinking becomes even more muddled than before. Try to persuade your sister that she is being both unkind and unfair when she engages in an argument with your mother. Her contacts should be a source of pleasure to the old lady. When she is arguing with a younger person, your sister can have the last word if that is im portant to her and if it gives her satisfaction. But with a per son your mother's age, it is a dif ferent story. Try to convince her that if she cannot -stop argu ments, the kindest thing she Long-Time Resident Of Valley Dies Friday Ashland Mrs. T.
