MONDAY, SEPT. 13, 1954 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE THREE Possible Asia Caiastrophe Told By General Van Fleet WASHINGTON OB Gen. James! A. Van Fleet says the United Slates has failed to capitalize on iree world strength in the Far East and faces the strong possibility of a catastrophe in Asia. "Our real strength in the Far East rests in Korea, Formosa, the Philippines and Japan." Van Fleet said in a copyrighted article in the magazine U.S. News and World Report, "Southeast Asia has little to offer in either military or moral strength. . "But in the eastern area of strength, we have (1) prevented Japan from rearming, 2 im mobilized our power in Korea by an armistice. "So now Red China, with com plete Immunity in the north and east. Is free to (II consolidate within, (2) move south against Weakness and (3) talk tough at any and all conferences." Van Fleet, former commander of the 8th Army in Korea, said he Modoc County Funds Told The successful 1954 Modoc Coun ty Fair held at Cedarville came to a close Sunday, August 29. A total cf 548 exhibitors participated and $13,997 was given away in pre miums. In the light horses and horsi show $1,275 was given in prizes. In the cutting horse contest the horses which took the first four prizes are four of the top cutting horses on the west coast. Winning horses and the order In which they placed were Marion's Girl, owned by Marion Flynt; Clay Pigeon, owned by C. N. Floydj-Black Pop py, owned by Waman Neufield: and Chickasaw Pike, owned by Leonard Proctor, Fay Vowell, with his mare Taffy, was named win ner of the California reined stock horse event. In the agriculture department the sweepstakes winners were Lu cile Sopp, first; Joe ' Karris Jr., second; T. R. Dunten, third. In the horticulture department sweepstakes winners were Bill Wains with C. M. Carter second and Luci!e Stopp third. In the floriculture division Betty Nelson was first in the sweep stakes, Grace Street second and Mrs. Dec Kochford third. The home economics division showed the largest number of ex hibitors with a total of 123.' En tries totaled 1417 and the premi ums amounted to $1604. Sweep stakes winners were as follows: clothing and textiles, Charlette Dacner, urst; Mary Asn, second: Jennie Toney, third; Preserved food, Eva Jacobs, first; Julienne Apple, second: Anna Staton, third; Baker goods, Lola Feterposton and Margorie Cranton tied for first; Eva Jacobs and Earlene Dolan tied for third. Earlene Dola. Lake City, had the winning chickens in the egg laying contest. , " In the Junior department, other than livestock, $287.35 was paid in wrote the article a year ago but did not make it public. Now, on his return from a president! mission to Korea, he said, it "is just as timely ... as when written." Denouncing the armistice in Korea as one of political expedi ency, Van Fleet said the loss of Korea and Indochina to the Com munists would mean that they would "irresistibly overflow" Ja-I pan, Formosa, Thailand, Burma and the .Philippines "probably without firing a mortar," and he added: "Once the free world is shut off from these priceless raw materials . . . what hope -remains for the Middle East, for Africa or for Eu rope or for us: As a soldier I can only admire the brilliant simplicity of their battle chart." Van Fleet termed the Korean ar mistice a profound mistake which "the American people . . . should greet . . . with a sense of shame." "For an armistice is indicated only when a political settlement is in sight." , he con'ined. "And clearly, to me at least, we had no basis for one either in Korea or anywhere else in Asia, for the Kremlin's major plans remained unchanged . . - - "In our obligations to our United Nations Allies, I see nothing which compelled us ' to surrender to the Communist Chinese the initiative in the war, And with these distant (U.N.) political committees in command of our battle lines, we had to put aside all the great les sons we had learned from Ameri can military history.' . . . "Our superb fighting men plus the equally superb divisions of the Korean Republic might have en gaged and destroyed the enemy. Instead they became pawns of that diplomatic caucus." Van Fleet said he does not be lieve the Russians would have come to the aid of the Chinese Reds had the U.N. war effort been extended to bomb Chinese bases. "During the next two or three years." he said, "it is inconceiv able that they will risk major war while they still lack the atom bomb stockpile and those intercontinental bombers necessary to knock us out. , , . "But if we still have time. I don't say that time is on our side . . . "We have been solely preoccu pied with preparing for that full scale, global war which may never come, and have been blind to the tepid wars which the Kremlin is winning-, and which now threaten to outflank the free world. "If this trend of the last eight years continues, we would ' lose World War III long before it begins."
