Today her name, but not her lovely face, is seen week lv as executive producer of television's "Perry Mason show. In addition to her executive position with the highly rated series, Gail is president of the local chapter of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. In this capacity she is working overtime to prove that TV's Emmy awards are more prestigious than thf Oscars. Awards Significant "Many more millions of people see an award-winning television show than see an Oscar-winning movie," Gail said. "It stands to reason that our awards mean more to the public. "Between 30 and 40 mil lion viewers watch our 'Perry Mason' show each week. To my knowledge no movie has ever played to 40 million Americans-unless it is shown on TV." Gail works closely with producer Harry Ackerman, national president of the TV Academy, in organizing the May 16 Emmy awards pro gram This year there will be 24 awards, two more than last year, but still a far cry from 1959 when 42 statuettes were handed out to almost every one vaguely connected with, the industry.

"Unlike the movie industry, our busi ness is still young and grow ing. Different circumstances call for variety of cate gories. "I think the Emmys have surpassed the Oscars in pres tige. "People live with television every day. They identify themselves with the medium far more than they do with motion pictures." To the critics who knock TV as a mediocre medium at best, the sleekly beautiful Gail said, "Television is bet ter than it has ever been be fore. And I say that as a viewer, a producer and a mother. "The academy does every thing It can to encourage bet ter efforts on, the part of in dividual producers and net works to maintain the prog ress and to raise the stand ards of the medium," she concluded, South Koreans Study Reunification Seoul -UPD-Moves are under way in South Korea to restore cultural and other non-political ties with North Korea. Such a movement, which suddenly gained momentum this year, is supported by many political groups and even some newspapers. The Democratic Party gov ernment of Prime Minister John Myun Chang, however", is strongly epposed to the move on the grounds that it is a Communist propaganda trap. The North Korean Commu nists have been stepping up efforts to establish contact with South Korea through economic, cultural and other exchanges. Following the April revolu tion last year some South Ko rean students proposed that Korea, divided for more than 15 years, be unified through neutralization. But the government and most South Korean people re jected the idea because they said neutralization would in vite eventual Communist dom ination of all Korea. At the start of 1961 the So cialist Party, which has little influence among the South Korean people, proposed that North and South Korea ex change inspection teams. It also called for bartering of North Korea's electricity for South Korean grain, and sup ported cultural and postal ex changes. Study Sincerity Progressive numbers of the New Democratic Party (NDP) proposed that a South Korean economic mission be sent to North Korea to study the sin cerity of communist offers. Former Finance Minister Kim Do Vun, deputy chief of the opposition Conservative Party, called for an immedi ate exchange of journalists be tween the South and North as the first step towards a bigger scale cultural exchange. Suh Min Jo, vice speaker of the lower house and member of the NDP, also supported the North-South exchange. He suggested political parties of both sides open negotiations "at an appropriate time." He said such talk should wait until the new adminis tration in the United States made clear its Korean policy. In an attempt to study var ious unification proposals, House Speaker Kwak Sang Hoon is pushing the forma tion of a "Supra-Partisan" council for national unifica tion. A spokesman said the coun cil was expected to be formed shortly. He said it would in clude, beside politicians, schol ars, businessmen and journal ists. Commenting on proposals for North-South exchanges, Prime Minister Chang said, "They are dangerous." "It is strange that such pro posals increased suddenly at a time when we must strength en our anti-Communist posi tion in view of the current in ternational situation," he said. Foreign Minster Chyung Yil Hyung said, "Our basic posi tion calling for U. N. super vised general elections to uni fy Korea remains unchanged. Cautious Approaches Many newspaper editorials support exchange proposals in principle, but emphasize cau tious approaches. ' The Iril Shinmun said, "We do not approve Prime Minis ter Chanel's unconditional op position to neutralization or North-South exchanges. "At least it is desirable for journalists to freely travel be tween the South and the North to report true facts about both parts of Korea," it said. "Ex changes of reporters are made between countries which have no mutual diplomatic rela tions." The Seoul Shinmum said, "We welcome attempts to seek new approaches to uni fication. Bold methods are sometimes needed to break the deadlock in solving such a complicated problems as unification of Korea." The Chosun Ilbo said, "The proposed exchanges between North and South. Korea are too much of an adventure which would bring little sub stantial gains, but may only result in ideological confu sion. "In case such exchanges are realized," the newspaper said, "it would mean we recognize communism, if not the puppet regime of North Korea."

Feed Grain Surplus Program Studied Washington - IUPD - The Agriculture Department is getting ready in advance for operating the administration's proposed new program to re duce feed grain surpluses, which is currently before the . congress. The department said Wed nesday it is gathering figures on 1959 and 1960 acreage of feed grains from about 1.75 million farms in 1,800 major feed producing counties all over the country. Department officials deny, however, that the checkup on acreage is an underhanded ef fort to promote President Ken nedy's plan to reduce 1961 feed grain acreage. The statements came after a Maryland farm leader ac cused the administration of "propagandizing" for its pro gram.
