.MEDFORD OEEGOID MAIL TRIBUNE ITVB Lilg Delay n f? ns n SUiaS OT Mil u WdiitcUy, December 1. 1954 Si inn nirD By LYLE C. WILSON . United Press Correspondent Washington (U.R) Months and mqre likely years of delay in freeing American airmen and others from Red China prisons was seen to day as a cal culated risk of E i s e n h ower administration foreign policy. 'Thehard facts are these: Short of Lyle C. Wilson r war, and a quickly successful war, at that, there is no ready means avail able by which Americans - im prisoned on fake spy. charges could be soon liberated. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles rejected this week the di rect and semi-violent policy of blockade of the Red Chinese mainland in forceful persuasion that American hostages should be set free. We shall, instead, "exhaust peaceful ' means'.' of maintaining national and indi vidual citizens' rights, the secre tary said. Technically speaking, blockade 'is a peaceful device. But President Eisenhower will have none of it on grounds that it might lead to war, and quickly. .-. -Leaders Called for Talk : The President called Defense Secretary Charles E. Wilson, Adm. Arthur W. Radford, chair man of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Lewis L. Strauss, chairman of the Atomic Energy Commis sion, to the White House today. And thirty minutes later, he met with the National Security Council. . - -. But regardless of how much all hands may have discussed force, blockade and bombs, the administration's course is sec, at least . for now. Everything will be done within the framework of peaceful , persuasion and propaganda. ' . v . Washington was most inter ested after Dulles' speech in two l .uj urn iii id. i m p I fit y?i AGAINST BLOCKADE Democrat Senator Walter F. George of Georgia, who is scheduled to become chair man of Senate foreign rela tions committee in next Con gress, said a blockade of Red China would mean,Ma general war" and "speedy death" for . Americans held by the Reds. ' phases of the problem. ; rl. The reaction of Senate Ma jority Leader William F. Know land (R-Calif.) who urged the blockade. 2. The definite moves Dulles would make in behalf - of the imprisoned Americans.. - L Open To Alternative Knowland said he was willing to accept any effective alterna tive to blockade. But he wanted the Americans freed.. His prin cipal; blockade support must come from the conservative or Taft group in the Senate. It was noticed that 'the day following Dulles' rejection of blockade, Knowland indicated to the Sen ate that he had some doubts No Matter How You List It, It's Still Baloney Chicago XU.R) The routine meal at ,the Detective Bureau lockup formerly was a slab of bologna between two - slices of bread. Now . the prisoners have ' a choice. They are offered menus listing "open - faced bologna sandwich," "fried bologna sand wich," bologna with mayon naise," "bologna with mustard," and "plate of sliced bologna." about the propriety of censuring Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy (R Wis.), in whose defense most of the socalled Taft Republicans in the Senate have arisen. Know land has not. yet taken a firm position. But politically sensitive Washington notes that on these two angry issues foreign, policy and McCarthy the able young Californian seems to be drawing steadily away from the Admin istration.' . There "is no administration hope for quickly liberating the 11 uniformed airmen, the two civilian Army employees charg ed, and jailed as spies, nor the numerous other Americans held behind . the Iron Curtain. : In previous instances, hostage Americans usually have been're leased before expiration of sen tences imposed on them, . but never quickly. The Communists hold them i until , their propa ganda value has been exhausted. On a long-range basis, Mr. Ei senhower and Dulles hope to turn the incident of the jailing of the airmen and two Army employees against Communism in general and Red China in par ticular. A delicate propaganda effort will be involved there. But the mere fact that Dulles spoke softly of peaceful meas ures while still uttering a na tion's indignation is calculated to re-assure United States' Euro pean allies that Americans are not trigger happy juveniles blindly willing to loose a hail of A and H-bombs. 4. Freighter Speeds To Save Stricken Seaman in Pacific San Francisco (U.R) The Isthmian Line . freighter y Steel Worker sped toward Johnston Island today in a dramatic race to save the life of a crewman stricken with appendicitis in the mid-Pacific. Word of the crewman's plight became known Sunday when Coast Guard Headquarters in San Francisco received a mes sage from the freighter en route to Hawaii and the United States from Bankok. The message, transmitted by radio operator David G. Calkins, 27, of Youngstown, O., said: "Crewman seriously ill. Suf fering dull pains in lower right abdomen. Urgently need medical advice." ' ; . - ' ; . . Physicians at the U.S. Public Health Service Hospital said it might .be appendicitis. They urged rest in bed and liquid diet. On Monday morning, Calkins sent a message saying the patient was- suffering "a slight increase in pain." In subsequent mess ages, he told of more pain and swelling, leading physicians .in San Francisco to fear the crew man's appendix might burst. At last, the Coast V Guard ordered the Steel Worker to pro ceed to Johnston Island, promis ing to fly" the crewman " from there to Hawaii for treatment. Last night the Steel Worker was only 360 miles from Johns ton, a tiny dot of land 500 miles southwest of Hawaii. ' - Steel. Worker after radioman Calkins acknowledged the Coast Guard orders: . : "Patient is me. I am not so good but I am conscious.'.
