Oregonians Divide On Issue
Of U.S.-Red China Policy
Corvallis U. S. foreign
policy for dealing with Red
China ran into sharp division
of opinion among Oregonians
balloting on the Great Decis
ions discussion topic, "Should
the U. S. Trade With Red
China?"
Ballots tabulated this week
at Oregon State college indi
cated growing sentiment for
easing foreign policy and
trade relations with Red Chi
na, but at least 10 per cent of
the voters turned "thumbs
down" on any concessions to
the Mao Tse-tung communist
regime.
Forty per cent of the voters
thought the U. S. should de
velop normal policy relations
with Red China, recognizing
it as a major power in the
Far East. About 30 per cent
of the voters, however, favor
ed "moving slowly" and de
manding a high price before
recognizing the Peiping gov
ernment. Less than 0 per
cent felt the communist re
gime in China is a passing
phase that will ultimately be
overthrown.
On the question of how the
U. S. should deal with Red
China's growing importance
in the world, balloting was as
-follows:
Stress Economic Defenses
Sixty-two per cent thought
the U. S. should put less em
phasis on military defenses in
Asia and more on economic
defenses helping noncom
munist governments raise liv
ing standards. However, 25
per cent said the U. S. should
continue to arm and aid our
Asian allies to check any mili
tary expansion by Red China.
While 52 per cent favored
maintaining good relations
with Taiwan (island base for
President Chiang Kai-shek's
nationalist Chinese government-in-exile)
only 8 per cent
thought we should help the
Nationalist government to ac
complish its stated aim of re
capturing the Chinese main
land. Thirty-four per cent
thought this country should

Balloting on U. S. trade
policies with Red China was
as follows:
Forty per cent said the U.S.
and allies should try to main
tain special trade restrictions
against Red China while liber
alizing the position of such al
lies as Japan that need more
normal China trade for their
own prosperity.
Present U. S. trade policy
places a ban on "strategic
goods" to all territories con
trolled by the Chinese govern
ment. The China embargo list
contains 200 more prohibited
items than does the trade em
bargo with the Soviet Union
and satellites.
Thirty-five per cent of the
voters would ease the embar
go, going along with our prin
cipal allies to apply the same
restrictions to Red China that

Try and Stop Me
By BENNETT CERF
A POSTAL INSPECTOR looked over a sub-station in the rear
of a crossroads grocery in a tiny town. "This place is a dis
grace," he declared. "I never saw such dirt and confusion. I'm
going to report this to Post-
master Summerfield."
The local postmaster
chewed his terbachy a few
moments, then hauled out a
couple of fly-specked three
cent stamps, and slapped
them into the inspector's
hand.
"Now, git,!" he command
ed angrily, "and take your
durn post office with you."
Essay by an imaginative
city lad on the tough assign
ment, "How to Catch an Owl":
"First spot an owl in a tree, and when you're sure he's looking at
you, run quickly around the tree several times. The owl will be fasci
nated by you, and forgetting the necessity of turning his body with
his head, will follow your progress with his eyes till he wrings his
head off." ,

Statements Said
Weakening Cause
Washington (TP Sen. Hu
bert Humphrey, (D-Minn.)
questioned today whether the
administration is wavering in
its resolve not to end the wea
pons tests until Russian agrees
to international atomic in
spection. Coming on President Eis
enhower's news conference
remark Wednesday that a
test suspension might be con
sidered by the United States
after its forthcoming test ser
ies in the Pacific, Humphrey
said statements "one day one
way, and the next day an
other, are only weakening our
cause and our case."
The President said he
would consider "very serious
ly" a test suspension if the
forthcoming series provided
U. S. scientists with "largely
or almost completely" all the
scientific data they sought
from the nuclear explosions.
Informed sources here
doubted that scientists would
tell the President they were
"ultimately satisfied" with
test results after the spring
series..
They pointed to suspected
disparity between Soviet and
U.S. missile development,
particularly in the field of in
tercontinental ballistics mis
siles fitted with hydrogen
warheads.
Army Law Seen
In Nuclear Attack
Washington (IP) Ameri
cans living in U. S. cities dev
astated by enemy attack
would find themselves under
Army-imposed martial law.
Gen. Willrd G. Wyman, the
head of the Continental Army
Command, diclosed plans to
impose complete martial law
in such cases. Such authority,
he said in a speech here Wed
nesday, is necessary for "real
ism" in nuclear-age defense
planning.
Wyman told the National
association of State and Ter
ritorial Civil Defense direc
tors that the military would
assume authority to "con
script and commandeer" de
fense workers and to carry
out punishment in areas
where civil authorities "are
incapable of functioning."
Dozen III After
Evening Meal
Portland (IP) A dozen
persons were hospitalized here
Wednesday night for food poi
soning after the evening meal
at a boarding house. They
were described as in "satis
factory" condition by hospital
attendants today.
Five ambulances removed
the ill to St. Vincents and
Good Samaritan hospitals af
ter they became ill.
About 48 persons ate the
evening meal which consisted
of string beans, hot turkey
sandwiches, mashed potatoes,
turkey gravy, strawberries,
milk and tea. Others did not
complain of being ill.
The first person became ill
about two hours after dinner
and others soon became sub
ject to diarrhea and vomiting.
Doctors diagnosed the poison
ing as staphylococcus bacteria.
Senator 'Serious'
Following Attack-
Burlington, N.C. (IP) Sen.
W. Kerr Scott (D-N.C), a
victim of a coronary throm
bosis, rested comfortably to
day in Alamance General hos
pital but his condition was
still listed as "serious."
The 61-year-old political
leader was hospitalized Wed
nesday after a visit to his
physician revealed the attack.
Scott had come here from his
home in nearby Haw River
to renew his driver's license
and had decided to visit Dr.
G. Walker Blair to check on
an "indigestion" attack the
previous night.
Blair and another physician
diagnosed the "indigestion"
as a coronary thrombisis, and
an electrocardiogram confirm
ed the diagnosis.
