I 'All my mother wants for reminded Reds Demand Recognition Before Releasing Captives PANMUNJOM, Korea W The North Korean Communists held out today for some sort of official recognition as the price for releas es two American pilots, two West Germans and any of the 30 Ko reans aboard a detained South Korean airliner. The Communists laid down their fresh demands at a meeting of the U.N. truce commission secretari at called to discuss the release of those aboard the South Korean DC3 airliner which vanished into North Korea Feb. lti. Earlier the Reds' Pyongyang radio had said that North Korea was ready to return the pilots, the West Germans and any South Koreans who wanted to leave. But today North Korean Col Kim Choon Kyang told the com mission that return of anyone wanting to go home "will be re alized expeditiously" If the South Korean, U.S. and West German Brutality Case Action Sought SEOUL ifl The South Korean Home Ministry demanded punish ment today of three. Americans it named as tormentors of a 14- year-old Korean thief who was beaten and nailed into a small wooden box last week. A ministry spokesman said a "strong protest" note was sent the U.S. Army via the Korean For eign Ministry and the U.S. Em bassy. The U.S. Army announced the Korean shovshine boy, Kim Choon II, is beginning "a new life full of love und hope" at an American-supported orphanage near As com. The Army had said he was caught stealing at the U.S. Army flight center there. The Korean government de manded punishment for Maj. Thomas James, Plymouth, Pa.; Capt. Marvin E. Kemp, Kil- michael, Miss.; and M.Sgt. Rob ert E. Woidensaul, Pottstown, l'a. The Army had no comment and would not say if charges would be lied against them. Kim said that alter he was caught, Kemp hit him several times and stubbed him three times on the knees and arm with a fruit knile. The Army admitted that the boy was put in a box 39'i Inches by lii' i by 13 inches that Wcidcnsaul "allegedly' nailed down the lid and that James then flew the box in a heli copter to Uijongbu. 23 miles away Death Claims Ex-Cartoonist BELMAIt, N.J. wi John Held Jr., cartoon chronicler of the "Mapper" era, died at his home here yesterday, lie was Ml. fields clever line drawings of flappers were recognized and loved by an entire generation if Americans.

Command's rcpre sentalivc, finally replied that rep resentatives of the West German and U.S. governments and the South Korean lied Cross would be on hand at a meeting tomorrow with specific information as to how and when the passengers might be returned. A U.S. Embassy counsellor and the West German minister to South Korea are now at Paninun jom for the talks. Presumably they will act through the truce group so as not to modify the West's stand against recognizing the Pyongyang regime. The South Korean lied Cross apparently will represent President S y n g m a n Khee s government. There was no immediate indica tion, however, whether this would satisfy the Communists. After the airliner was seized the Communists had said any aboard wanting to go South could do so only after negotiations between ihe South and North Korean gov ernments. The proposal was re jected. South Korea, like the United States, does not recognize Norm Korea.

HSN Reporter Yins Award Helen Parks, Herald and News reporter for the Fort Rock-Silver Lake area, was named as first place winner in the 1957 Oregon State Grange public relations con test for outstanding publicity writ ing for the Fort Hock Grange in Lake County. She won $100 and a trip to the forthcoming slate grange session at Eugene for herself and it was announced that her grange will re ceive a $50 award for display in the grange hall. There were 97 official entries in the contest and 88 entrants com pleted the competition by entering serapbooks for the final judging.

Berger and Robert Birdsall, extension in formation specialists at Oregon Stale College, Corvallis. Attack Threat Said Slight WASHINGTON W Gen. Earle E. Partridge says it probably will be "some years" before the Sovi et Union has enough long-range missiles to launch a successful at tack .against North America. Partridge, head of the Contin ental Air Defense Command, said that despite Soviet claims, he does not neneve mey now have an operational intercontinental bal listic missile. Partridge and Gen. Thomas S Power, chief of the Strategic Air Command, participated in a tele vision program surveying air de fense. Power said he thinks that even in case of a Soviet ICU.VI attack, a 15-minute advance warning is "technically feasible." SAC has a goal of getting a third of its bomb ers into the air within 15 minutes of a warning. Partridge said tho North Ameri can civilization could survive even a massive H-bomb attack, al though he said it would "lake many generations to come back." On another television program. Dr. Edward Teller talked hope fully of the chance of developing hydrogen bombs smaller than the megaton range. A megaton is the power equivalent to that of a mil lion tons of TNT. Atomic bombs have been re duced In size to permit their tac tical use on the battlefield, but H-bombs thus far have been made only with massive power of de struction.

It is no secret mat uenerai Motors, Ford and Chrysler al Rebels Report New Bombing SINGAPORE at Indonesian rebel sources reported today that Menado, the capital of the rebel held province of North Celebes, was bombed yesterday by two planes of the central government s air force. Antiaircraft batteries chased the two American-made B25s away after they dropped 10 bombs destroyed a bridge and strafed Menado airfield, the sources said. Similar reports were received in Manila from Philippine newspaper correspondents in Menado. Then attack took place during a rally celebrating the first anni versary of the "universal struggle'' movement headed by Lt. Col. Ventje Sumual, the group leading the rebellion in the Cele bes against President Sukarno's Central Indonesian government based on Java. The correspondent of the Manila Times said casualties were light, indicating that possibly the crowd at the rally had not been attacked. Regular communication channels with Menado have been blocked by tlie central government. Reporting on its raids on the rebel stronghold in Central Su matra, Indonesian air force- spokesmen in Jakarta said a series of attacks last week cut off the rebel government there from the outside world by knocking out ferry operations. On the political front, former Vice President Mohammed Hatla met with Sukano in Jakarta for the second time- since the rebels in the Outer Islands set up their government on Sumatra. The two men emerged smiling after a 90 minute talk but would say only that they would meet again. Hatta generally endorses the rebel demands for removal of Communists from the central gov ernment and more autonomy for the Outer Islands but so far has refused to throw in with the rebels formally. The rebels have said they would make up with Jakarta if Hatta replaced Premier Djuan da as head of the government, but so tar Sukarno has refused.

"the best Maternity Fashions BUDGET PRICED SMOCKS PEDAL PUSHERS SUITS 2 P.ece SLIM JIMS CLEVERLY STYLED to fit and Flatter Smaller Cars S. Production ready have in the blueprint stage vehicles designed to compete with the smaller, foreign-built cars. Whether these cars ever will be put into production will depend upon how demand for small cars holds up. Last year 206.827 foreign-built cars, mostly of the small, light weight type, were sold in the U.S. market. That total compared with 98,187 delivered in 1956. Included in the 1957 total were 11,791 Metro politans, built in England for American Motors. ; Some auto industry analysts are predicting that if demand for the smaller vehicles approaches 400,- 000 units annually General Motors, Ford and Chrysler will put smaller whellbase, lower priced cars on their U.S. production lines. Anything less than that volume, experts say, would make U.S. pro duction economically impractical. Meanwhile General Motors and Ford are importing a growing number of their European-built cars to get a bigger slice of the market. In the present market it has been more economical to im port these vehicles than to build them on domestic assembly lines. The car makers generally de cline to discuss what small car plans they may have. The weekly magazine Newsweek in its March 10 issue will say General Motors and Ford are going into production of small cars and may have them on the market late in 1959. The magazine said the cars will be priced at from $1,600 to $1,800, and will resemble the GM and Ford European-made cars. General Motors and Ford said the Newsweek statement was speculative and declined further comment.
