Newspaper Page TextRed Tape Delaying Korean Babylift, Mrs. Holt Charges Creswell 0? Mrs. Harry Holt charged today that 25 mix ed blood Korean orphan children have died in Korean institutions while bureaucratic red tape de layed their departure for the United States where they could set proper care. Three of the deaths have occurred in the past three weeks, she said. Mrs. Holt, wife of the Cres well farmer who has dedicated his life and his financial re sources to finding homes for the rejected Korean children, re ported that her husband has 230 children waiting in Korea for transport to this country and jdopf'-'e parents are waiting for t -r- ugh Congress passed and t .. --..t Eisenhower has sign- u a new law permitting Holt resume his famed babylifts, delays on both sides of the Pa cific have stalled the program. Mrs. Holt said that at first the State Department decided it would screen the American fam ilies adopting the Korean chil dren. She reported this policy has been eased but now a short age of typists in the American embassy in Seoul is a new bottle neck. The embassy asserts it takes six hours to type out a visa for an orphan waiting to be adopt ed by an American family. Mrs. Holt said she and her husband and the missionary group aiding them have offered to provide typists and have asked that Army typists be used. The em bassy, she said, has turned down both suggestions and continues to provide only one typist for the job. "Every parent is just begging us to get their children here by Christmas," Mrs. Holt said. Holt previously had a plane chartered for 100 orphans for Oct. 17. That was delayed until the 23rd and then to the 31st. But Mrs. Holt said even that date will be set back because visas still have not been typed for a planeload of children. Excitemeni Caused On Turk-Syria Border Damascus, Syria OP) There was gunfire and a land mine ex plosion on the Turkish border Wednesday but the excitement was caused by smugglers, not by a war. Seven Turkish tobacco smug glers, unmindful that the crackle of small arms fire on the tense border could touch off a major war, engaged in a gun battle with a Syrian anti-smuggling squad. The fight took place in the Ghewalik Valley on the North east border sector. The police patrol captured two of the intruders and the other Turks escaped across the border, authorities said. 1 1 GET THE BIGGEST (Sl II VAiAjiEVER!J u7pLY LASTS!

"Why," he asked his dad. "don't they just hire taller girls?" A man in Spokane adver tised for a wife, and boasted that he received 200 replies. "What did the answers read like?" he was asked. "Most of them," he admitted, "said You can have mine.'" Billy Wilder has an idea for the most stupendous give away show of all. Every con testant is a millionaire to start with; if he misses a question, he gets so much money he's forced into a higher tax bracket. "Never judge a woman by her clothes," advises a most observing judge. 'There isn't enough evidence." O 19ST, by Bennett Cerf. Distributed by King Features Syndicate, The Family Council Editor's note: the Family Council consist! ot a Judge, a psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor a women's editor and two writers. Each article is a summary of an actual report The Family Council does not give advice; it merely reports on problems that have teen dealt with by responsible agencies and counselors. Evelyn G. Mother really gets on your nerves. Mrs. M. G. She's always fussing at me. Evelyn G. I am a career woman, single and in my mid 405. I had lived alone in a city not far from my home commun ity until recently when I invit ed my widowed mother to come stay with me. The reason I had Mother come was because she couldn't get along with my brother and sister-in-law with whom she had been living. She told me they were treating her very badly and had made her quite miserable. Well, now that I've had her for a few months I can under stand what they were up against. She can really get on your nerves. She talks constantly always nonsense she is slop py around the house and has I no consideration at all. I could forgive it all if she was suffer ing from old age, but she is just past 60 and in excellent health Mrs. M. G When I tell my children I want to live alone and not be dependent on anyone they both set up a big howl and tell me I can't do it. I have my own money , and I'm in good health, but they insist it's dan gerous for me to be alone. Everyone seems to think I'm a nice woman and good com pany everyone except my children, of course. I have nev er been accused of sloppiness by anyone except my daughter. She is a typical old maid, al ways fussing about this and that. If I read the papers, she can't stand the rustle. If I leave my pocketbook on the dining table for an instant, she is after me about my sloppiness. My son says he wants me to come back and live with him but I know it will be the same thing all over again with him and his wife picking on me. The Council: When someone can't stand the rustle of some one else's newspaper or is driven frantic by that someone's per sonal habits, it's just a way of saying, "I wish you were'nt around me just now." Most of us will put up with some fairly offensive behavior from the per son we want to live with. Of course, even happily mar ried couples sometimes get into that "I- can't- stand-what-you're-doing-with-your-knuckles" mood, but if things get to the point where they feel that way most of the time, it is generally con ceded things have come to a serious pass. We can't see why Mrs. M. G. should put up with this kind of situation if she has the ability to get 0ut of it. Her children want to do the right thing, but they do not really want to live with her. There is no reason why she should have to suffer so that her children won't feel stabs of guilt at having left her alone. Mrs. M. G. would be wise to take things into her own hands. She should find a nice place to live, possibly with a woman of her own age or a couple who would enjoy her company. When her children "set up a big howl," she should just rustle her newspapers and plunk her pocketbook on the dining table and announce that as long as she is healthy and has the means, she intends to live as she likes. (Copyright 1957, General Feeatures Corp.) Maloney Denies Conspiracy Charge Portland IP) Thomas E. Ma loney. testifying in his own de fense Thursday in his conspiracy trial, denied that he had ever conspired with William M. Lang ley when Langley was Multno mah county district attorney to give or receive a bribe. Howard Lonergan, attorney for the 57-year-old Spokane and Seattle racetrack figure, told Ma loney he wanted him to look squarelv at the jurors when he answered, then said: "Now I want to ask you whether you ever conspired with Langley to - give or receive a bribe." Looking squarely at the jurors, Malonev renlied: "As God is my judge, I've never sat down with that man in regard to bribery or anything else. His answer was to the final Question put to him in his day long direct examination on the witness stand. Earlier .Maloney testified that he tried "very hard" to get night life figure James B. Elkins into the Teamsters union. Maloney said he failed. Maloney said Elkins wanted him to support Langley for dis trict attorney but didn't want him to let anyone know, because at the same time, he said, Elkins was supporting John B. Mccourt, then the incumbent. Is That So? By EUGENE BURNS Ranger-Naturalist Rutherford, Calif. To my way of thinking, the best time of year is the fall. The weather sings. The countryside flames with color. When friends come from afar, my favorite drive is to take them to vineyards in the heart of the beautiful Napa Val ley and sit them down in some fine old taproom to roll over tongues some of this section's great wines. Pleasant, informative conver sation is bound to go along with the tasting. Such as: The -leaves of green grape varieties turn bright yellow in fall; the leaves of red or black grapes turn scarlet and gold. Grape leaves are notched much like ivy leaves which en ables them to capture as much sunlight as possible and yet pre sent a minimum surface for evaporation and wind resist ance. To the grower, the shape and pattern of grape leaves are helpful, if not necessary to iden tify grape varieties. An average vineyard contains about 650 vines per acre. It takes about 7,000 grape berries to make one gallon of wine. This, of course, applies to the average sized variety such as the Petite Sirah. . Take your choice: some botan ists say dates were man's first domesticated fruits; others that it was the grape. Both are mighty good. And both came from the Middle East and have been known since earliest history. The gTape used in Biblical days was Vitis Vinifera or wine grape, often referred to as the grape of history. Kissing, which isn't as old an indoor sport as you might be lieve, may have come from wine. At least the Roman writer Cato states that husbands adopted the custom of kissing their wives to determine whether the girls had been enjoying a pleasant after noon in the garden with a glass or three of wine rather than at tending to the more unglamor ous chores in Roman households. As to be expected, the gentle men began to like the custom not on the basis of checking their suspicions but on the in trinsic merit of the kiss itself. Batons Contained Wine Those big batons which drum majors twirl in parades and exhi bition drills served a dual pur pose in early Europe first to beat out the time, and second to contain wine. From the long hollow stem with the big hol low ball of the baton, the drum major poured wine for his thirsty band. In the days of Queen Eliza beth, ladies of the court washed their faces in wine to improve their complexions. Coming to our land which was named Vinland by the Norse because of the native grapes we were told that young Abe Lin coln, when 24, applied with a business partner named William Barry, for a license to keep a tavern in New Salem, 111. This, of course was before he became a lawyer and went on to become President. Among their posted prices, all for half pints, were: French brandy, 1834 cents; apple brandy, 12 cents; Holland ' gin, 1834 cents; domestic gin, 12 cents; wine, 25 cents; rum. 1834 cents; whisky, 12V& cents. You'll notice, wine and French brandy, at 25 cents a glass, was the most expensive drink in Lincoln's tavern double the price of whiskey! Meals whether break fast, dinner or supper were also 25 cents. ' And of these drinks, wine is still the only one which you might be able to get for 25 cents a glass.
