I UN in Air ran a h A n LfU In The ' Day's lews 1 Br FRANK JENKINS On toe WORLD front: , The U.S. and Japan sign a niu '. tual defense agreement which will become effective as soon as the Japanese parliament ramies it. Under this agreement, Japan will ' , increase its defense force to 160, 000 men from the present limit of :, 120,000 ana wm fight askuau ' if the Japanese government chooses to do so, - We will supply the Japs with mips and planes and will teed them while they are getting on their ; feet again so they can make their own guns and ammunition ana other military equipment with which to supply a military force LARGER than the presently sug gested limit of 160,000. , You're not Interested in all this , srtrld news, you aay adding, per haps: "Why not forget about the f tfleockeyed .world and talk about our - home town, our home county and our nome siaiey- Wait a minute. Our city council, our county court and our . state legislature DONT create me conditions mat sena our boys to war to fight and die In 1 foreign lands. NOTHING can be closer to our hearts and our homes than the world conditions that can send our men to foreign wars. A word more on this U.S.-Japa-. nese mutual defense agreement. ft,,,. nxmu,-.. to In out. a TWdHT. , INQ PARTNER In Asia. Red China ts rising swiftly as an efficient and POWERFUL military nation. We've learned that in Korea. Shall we fight communist China aione '. ! Or shall we build up a fighting -partner to help us? That's the problem. On the U.S. domestic front: Adlai Stevej son, at the big Dem ocratic powwow in . Miami , last week, "lashed out' at the GOP for what he termed a "campaign . of slander, dissension and decep tion aimed at winning the coming congressional elections." . He criticized President Eisenhow er sharply for "failing to put the brakes on McCarthy." Adlal conveniently overlooks the fact that only the people of Wiscon sin can put the brakes on McCar thy who ISN'T appointed. He's elected by trie people oi tne tate of Wisconsin,, , There was a long tunc lit our po Iltical history when the Democrats had their Bilbos, their Pitchfork TUlmans, their Talmadges and their Huey Longs. When these loud mouthed demagogues were having their day, the President put no brakes on them. He couldn't. Put ting the brakes on those worthies was up to the people of Mis sissippi, South Carolina, Georgia and Louisiana. Just as putting the brakes on Mc Carthy Is up to the people of Wis consin. The truth in this subverslves-in-govemment business, as usual, lies between two extremes. The Dem ocrats let too many communists get Into our government. That was . one reason why Stevenson couldn't be. elected President. McCarthy Is going after them in the wrong way, beating his personal drum and giv ing the impression that he's going to run the WHOLE SHOW or else. The best way to handle com munist infiltrators in our govern ment is to throw out those that are in and see to it quietly that no more OET IN. One trouble with that method has been that every time a communist Infiltrator is fired (or even hand led a little roughly when he hides behind the Fifth Amdnement to keep from telling whether he's a ' communist or not) the so-called "liberals" yell bloody murder all over the lot. 1 W mustn't, of course, blame Mr. ,evfnson too much. We must re- member that this is . an election year, and he has the election-year fever In his veins along with most of the rest of us. Election-year fever makes us Americans do crazy things.

A motorist here receives a park ing ticket and an envelope. It he puts the ticket and 60 cents into the envelope and places it in the T i af-o-terla, an aluminum box at tached to the parking meter, the fine is considered paid. Wait 8 hours and the ante goes up to $1. .Police Chief Albert Dodd thinks the pay-as-you-drlve boxes will be a bonanza In enforcement ot the city's traffic codes. "Used to be," reflected Dodd, "women were pretty reluctant to Some to tlie station, and they'd give the tickets to their husbands, who chances are, would forget to pay them. Now the women pay better than men." Overtime parking fines collected In the boxes during the first month of "Operation Traf-o-teria" totaled totaled $400, Dodd said, a 135 per cent increase over the previous month's take. Conceding that a few nasty, notes crop up along with the ticket en velopes, chewing gum, matcn covers, and assorted loot when the collecting officers empty the box es, the chief insisted that so far public reaction has been "quite favorable." U.N. Command Accuses Reds PANMUNJOM Wl The U. N. Command charged Tuesday that the Communists flagrantly denied displaced civilians in North Korea the right to register ana return south under, the armistice agree ment. At the same meeting of the Joint Military Armistice Commission, the Communists similarly charged the U. N. Command with 'denying the Tight to return to th Commu nists of two million displaced North Korean civilians. In an exchange last month, the Allies return iil 37 civilians to the Communists. The Reds handed back 19 foreigners, all ' of them Turks and White Russians. Rear Adm. A. E. Jarrell told the Communists: "It Is inconceiv able that none of the 80.000 South Koreans taken north during the active hostilities has been permit ted to return south." ' Jarrell also charged that the Reds had made o effort to ser.fi 2.831 displaced civilians the U. N. Command had listed by name to be Informed of their right to re turn south.

Ifl France and Ger many agreed Tuesday to try to settle their auarrel over the Soar on the basis of a Dutch plan for Europeanlzing the rich little indus trial border territory. French Foreign Minister Georges Bidault insisted, however, that new French proposals which were submitted here to West German Chancellor K o n r a d Adenauer Tuesday should also be taken into consideration. A brief communique issued af ter Adenauer and Bidault held two separate talks, gave no Indication of the nature of the French pro posals, ' But the communique said the French proposals had been drawn up in the same spirit as the Coun cil of Europe plan authored by Dutch Socialist Van Der Goes Van Naters. Under his plan the Saar would be administered by a European commissioner and an advisory council. France would retain her present economic union with the coal - and - steel territory, which brings her close to industrial par ity with West Germany. Germany, which refuses to give up all her claims to the German speaking Saar which Hitler took over. Is expected to insist on some sort of currency tie with the area and on the admission of more German goods there.

Humphrey (D-Mlnn) yesterday of a bill to establish by law "a code of fair play", for congressional investigations. Douglas said the approach taken by Republican leaders, based on persuasion rather than legislation, Farm Leader Eyes Sale WASHINGTON W A farmer cooperative official told the Senate that present U. S, policies of hand ling surplus ' farm products , may be leading "Into a kind ot state trading." . We must," said Homer L, Brlnkley, "guard against further drifting into state trading." Brlnkley, executive vice presi dent of the National Council of Farmer Cooperatives, said 'trading in agricultural commodi ties by foreign governments have placed American farmers "under severe handicaps." But, he told the. committee, "we would compound the error if we did our foreign trading in the Bame way. We have demonstrated throughout our history that we get things done best by private indus try." . The question or competition In foreign markets was raised by Ben, tichoeppel (R-Kan), who Bald some nations competing .with the United states.'

Brave Mother Rescues Child SALSM M Mrs. Vernon Miller glanced out the door Monday alter noon to check on her 3-year-old daughter who was to be playing in the back yard which borders Mill Creek here. The little girl, Marljanc, wasn't there. Mrs. Miller ran outside and saw a flash of the child's orange dress bobbing In the water 200 feet downstream. .

A few days later Coos Bay Jim mie Garrison told Portland news papermen that Basin Jimmie was a phony and that he, Coos Buy Jim mie, had engaged in all the fights the Klamath Fails man claimed to have won, - The argument finally reached an impasse and nothing further waa heard after the Longshoremen's Un ion in Portland failed to arrange a "grudge match" between the two Garrisons.

Of Surplus TUESDAY, MARCH t, 1854 io Committee amounted onlv "to a pious hope that committees will reform them selves.'' Sen. Ferguson (R-Mlch), chair man ot the policy committee, was due to report to the OOP com mittee on his survey of existing Senate committee rules and dis cussion of possible improvements with individual committee chair men. : Republican Leader Knowland of California already has said each committee has the unquestioned right to accept or reject any sug gestions growing out of the study. At a news conference last week President Elsenhower said Know land had advised him that "ef fective steps are being taken by the Republican leadership to set up codes of fair procedure." The President's statement, deal ing Indirectly with the storm over the questioning of Brig. Gen. Ralph Zwicker by McCarthy at a one-man hearing, said - Congress has responsibility for seeing that its committee procedures are fair and proper, The bill offered by Douglas and Humphrey is similar, to measures previously Introduced but on which no action has been taken by the senate Rules Committee. Sen. Jenner (R-Ind), chairman of the rules committee, recently referred to the policy committee study of investigative procedures as "much ado. about nothing." Douglas told tne senate he had noted with great concern that the Republican Policy committee does not propose to take positive aotlon on tne President's recommenda tions or on the various bills pre viously introduced to improve in vestigating procedures."- 'instead," he continued; . "it Is proposed to make 'suggestions' to committee chairmen for revised rules ot conduct which, if adopted, could be reversed by the next chairman, or by the sitting chair man, ai nis merest wish.' . Douglas said he wan sure this "pious hope" approach was not wnat Elsenhower had in mind, Nor, he said.

M. Meerloo ot New York City as a follow-uo witness to Ma). Gen. William H ucan, who testified yesterday. Dr. Meerloo, a Dutch psychia trist, specialized In the study of Communist brainwashing and de iiner. its result as "mentriclde" literally, mind-murder. He coined the word as a description of what happens to a mind robbed or its will by torture and Interrogation. The court of one admiral and three Marine generals was set up to recommend whether Schwable should be court-martialed or other- jwhte disciplined. Bean, wno won the Medal of Honor in Korea and was a prisoner for three years, told the court yes terday he would rather die than submit to capture again, "If I ever go to war again," he said, "I'll carry along a pill which I'll take If I'm captured." He said the military rule of dis closing only name, rank and serial number when captured Is an ideal "wo should all strive for" but he said he told his captors more than that. ... - Change In Milk Props Explained DAVTON, Ohio tP) Undersec retary of Agriculture True D. Morse said Tuesday the govern-' ment had no choice but to lower price supports for dairy products in the marketing year beginning April J. Morse said that Secretary Ben son, in lowering the supports tor outtcr, enceso and dried milk from the present level of SO per cent of parity to 15 per cent followed a ruling by the Agriculture Depart ment's solicitor, or top legal of ficer. Parity is a standard for meas uring farm prices declared by law to be fair to farmers in relation to prices they pny.

No. S185 Blasts At WASHINGTON W 8en. Fland ers (R-Vt) said in the Senate Tues day that Sen. McCarthy (R-Wls "Is doing his best to shatter" the Republican Party "by Intention or through ignorance." He said McCarthy belongs to a "one-man party, (whose) name is McCarthyisin, a title which he has proudly accepted." McCarthy's search for internal subversion is diverting the nation from external troubles to an "ex tent dangerous to our future as a nation," Flanders told his col leagues, adding: "The dangerous attack is from, without, not from within. Look out senators, and see what Is creeping upon us." Flanders said the world appears to be arming for "age-long war- lare between uod and the devil," split Into . Communist and non Communist camps and asked: In this battle . . . what is the part of the Junior senator from Wisconsin? " . "Ho dons his war-paint.- He goes into his war-dance. He emits his war-whoops. He goes forth to bat tle and proudly returns with the scalp of a pink Army dentist." Finn Election Returns Told HELSINKI.'
