The service told Rep. Frank Kowalski (D - Conn.) that starting July 1 each Air Force commander will be able to hire a civilian contractor to handle the chores of washing dishes, peeling potatoes, scrubbing garbage cans and other such kitchen jobs. To Hire Civilians The contractors will hire civilians to handle the kitchen jobs at all permanent bases which were previously han dled by GIs. The order will not effect KP duties in the field, forward areas, or in kitchens aboard Air Force planes. In peacetime, most GIs are at permanent bases except when they are on maneuvers. Kowalski, West Point grad uate and ex-Army colonel who first disclosed military man uals instructing GIs how to wash dogs and act as offi cers' servants, praised this new directive. He wrote Air Force Secre tary Dudley Sharp, "it is sig nificant that the Air Force -youngest in years of "our military services - should be the first to break the tradi tional KP barrier." Kowalski hoped the other services would follow suit. Americans To Face Tribunal in Cuba Havana, Cuba (UPD - The semi-official newspaper Revo lucion said Tuesday the two Americans captured when their plane was shot ' down Monday will be tried by a revolutionary court. It said four Cubans arrest ed at the scene of the inci dent also will face the revolu tionary tribunal in Matanzas. Rebel Ariuy Commander Juan Almeida, announced, that the American fliers were cap tured "while trying to land for the purpose of taking out of the country as a fugitive from justice, former Police Commandant Damaso M o n tesino Alvarez, and other per sons." Dallas, Ore. (UPD Damage was estimated at $10,000 in an explosion and fire Monday at a service station here. TRAIN DERAILED A broken coupler was blamed for the 18-car derailment of a Illinois Central freight train at Rock dale, Iowa.

BROMLEY OXNAM Of The Methodist Church Washington, D.C. Written for UPI When the churches met in the Second Assembly of the World Council of Churches at Evanston, 111., 120,000 Chris tians assembled in Soldier Field for a service of worship. The world beheld the churches visible in coopera tion, the churches experienc ing the corrective impact of collective thinking. Quaker learned from Orthodox, and Orthodox from Methodist, and Methodist from Anglican. They practiced the military principle of impulsion. Every military move must have an objective and is dependent upon mass, that is, all that the commander possesses men, material, and morale. Impul sion means multiplying mass by concentrating upon a par ticular section of the line. Champlin Gives Driving Advice "Think for two-the other driver and you-if you want to stay safe in traffic." With that advice, Medford Chief of Police Charles P. Champlin pointed out the re lationship of defensive driv ing to traffic safety. He describes the defensive driver as one who knows that morally he must do all he can to prevent accidents no matter what the circum stances may be. This means he drives as skillfully as he can, obeys all laws and does whatever he can to compen sate for unsafe acts of others. Champlin stressed the im portance of anticipating the other fellow's errors. "Many accidents could be avoided," he said, "if drivers would keep a constant lookout for the mistakes of others. In this way they could spot danger ous situations in time to do something about them." It is unfortunate, he said, that there are more drivers whose-main code of driving seems to be not to give" the other guy a break, than there are defensive drivers. With Oregon motor vehicle registration at an all-time high of more than 908,000, defensive driving is more im portant than ever, Champlin said. Wisconsin was settled most ly by French explorers and missionaries. Bloody Mary 80 PROOF. 8S a i Paaes 1-6 Tribune Churches are concentrating their power in the proclama tion of message, in the devel opment of sound international relations, a just social order, brotherhood in racial areas. During Lent, when millions think anew of the signifi cance of their membership vows, Christians everywhere realize that they belong to a world-wide fellowship with the centuries of history be hind it-the manger, the up per room, the cross; a future with the ages before it Jesus Christ is to become the ruler of the kings of the earth and His Kingdom shall know no end; a fellowship that knows no barrier of nation, of class, of race. It is a fellowship in which the member realizes that he is not alone and will never be alone again-"Lo, I am with -you always;" a fel lowship with a summons to get right with brother before one leaves gifts at altars; a fellowship that demands that we master the faith until it masters us; a fellowship in which we are called upon to concentrate our talents and find greatness in service it self. In Lent, we are together; and out of Lent will come a practice that means we shall be together through the ages to come. COMPARE!

ANDY'S CREDIT Kennedy, who is staking his cuames on nis snowins m state presidential primaries, discussed his prospects with Sen. Kenneth P. Keating (R N.Y.) in an interview. Kennedy said he would not quit the race if he lost in Wis consin. Humphrey took a sim ilar stand last week. How ever, Kennedy added that a Wisconsin defeat would make it very difficult for him to win his party's nomination. Depends on Showing He said his chances of win ning the nomination depend ed on showing in state pri maries that he was supported by a majority of the Demo crats. To a question about Former President Truman describing the presidential primaries as "eyewash," he said eyewash would be "the drink that Milwauxee Is going to make famous."

He called Humphrey his chief opponent "at this time" because "the big picture right now is in Wisconsin." If he wins his primary contests, he said, he would regard Senate Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson (Tex.), Sen. Stuart Symington (D-Mo.) and pos sibly Adlai E. Stevenson as his chief rivals. Stevenson Choice Sen. John A. Carroll (D Colo.), said, meanwhile, that his choice is twice - defeated Stevenson. "We haven't a Democratic candidate in this country who could have defeated Eisen hower in 1952 and 1956," Carroll said. "Only the pro fessional politicians care about those two defeats - the people don't let that influence their choice."
