SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Monday, August 28, 1957 Quotes From the News By UNITED PRESS Tokyo Communist China's chief propaganda organ "People's Daily," on that country's rejection of a U.S. State department proposal to let 24 American newsmen go behind the Iron Curtain: "What the U.S. government is now trying to do is send people Into our country to search our opportunities to create trouble." Waihlngton Sen. J. William Fulbright (D.-Ark.) on the state department's stand against admitting Red Chinese reporters to the United States on an exchange basis: "Don't we have Tass reporters here now. I don't think the Chinese are any more dangerous than the Russians." (Washington American counterspy Boris Morros, disclosing that several Americans employed by the government overseas are pying for the Russians and may soon be indicted: "There are two sisters, one married to the richest celluloid man in Europe and one married to an important engineer in Los Alamos." Vatican City Pope Pius XIL on the "cruel disilllusionment" that young people face when they first go out into the world: "Slowly they absorb the poison of materialistic leaching, of altitudes warped by class warfare and hatreds." Washington Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, on the solidarity of the United States and its European allies: "We are also developing a political climate good for all people everywhere who want to see peace and justice and human welfare." Owsley Impressed With Defense Motion Maebashi, Japan W Col. Al vin L. Owsley, an American Leg ion observer at the trial of U.S. Army Specialist 3C William S. Girard of Ottawa, 111., said today he was "particularly impressed" with the defense motion to deny Japanese jurisdiction in the case. Owsley, a former soldier-diplomat and now a Dallas, Tex., lawyer, said the motion was firmer than the one presented early to the U.S. Supreme Court on a similar plea. After viewing the opening trial session Owsley said the trial was "deliberate and calm." Owsley said he was "impressed with the defense, mainly because of the drive to clarify the indict ment or to quash it."

Backstairs: Ike to Take Flu Shots By MERRIMAN SMITH United Press While House Writer Washington HP) President Eisenhower will be inoculated today against Asian flu. The White House said the President's doctor, Maj. Gen. Howard McC. Snyder, and Sur geon General Leroy E. Burney, had recommended that Eisen hower take the shot. Burney said last week that persons with histories of heart and pulmonary ailments should receive priority as soon as the vaccine was available. Eisenhower suffered a heart attack in 1955. Press Secretary James C. Hagerty said that in view of that, the President would receive the vaccine today. Eisenhower already has been exposed to what the doctors have diagnosed clinically as Asian flu. His chief economic adviser, Dr. Gabriel Hague, came down with the flu last Thursday, less than 24 hours after a conference with the President. Sgt. Jack Cliff, attached to the White House garage and a driver of official vehicles, also is suf fering from the ailment but has not been in recent close contact with the chief executive. Tom Craven Jr., a cameraman for Columbia Broadcasting Sys tem news film, was working in the President's office several times early last week before he came down with the new ail ment. The President told his news conference last Wednesday he would not take the vaccine until it was available generally to the public. But he changed his mind, according to Hagerty, on the recommendations of Snyder and Burney and their assurance that sufficient vaccine is available in the Washington area for persons with heart and chest conditions. The President had caused some concern by his statement of last week that he. would wait for some time to take a flu shot: "I am going to take it just as soon as ordinary people like I am can get it. Now, that is when I will take it." "Ordinary people,"- meaning the general public, probably won't have access to the vaccine in any appreciable volume until the middle or latter part of Sep tember. At least one medical ex pert believes that it would be foolhardy to wait that long to administer the vaccine to the commander in chief of the armed forces of the United States. "Heavens knows," said one doctor, "by the wildest stretcn of democracy and modesty; the President of the United States should be protected against the new flu ahead of an Army captain."
