An uneasy peace marked this year's observance of the birth of Christ. Despite threats of war from Moscow, there was only slight shooting on the world's two active war fronts the National ist islands off the coast of Com munist China, and Algeria, where the French have been battling a ' nationalist rebellion. The tensions of the old year were temporarily shelved by the hohdayers. But troops of the Western Al lies and the United Nations were on watch, keeping the cold war cold. American soldiers at the barbed wire barricades marking the Iron Curtain in Europe had hot turkey dinners brought to their posts. In other parts of Europe U.S. serv icemen entertained 75,000 orpnans, refugees and hospital patients. In Communist-ruled East Bet- lin Julius Cardinal D o e p f n e r preached a sermon auacxing me Bed regime in nis ursi appear, ince since he was named a car. dinal of the Roman Catholic Church. U.S. troops in Morocco heard a Christmas message from Dr. Ed win T. Dahlbere. president of the National Council of Churches.

The victims parents are prominent In Alexander City. Grimsley said he was walking behind his companions, carrying the guns, when the Central of Georgia freight approached. "The others tried to run." he reported. "One girl fainted. The others tried to help her. I kept yelling at them to Jump." The engineer, R. T. Davis, said he put the train In emergency when he saw the youths. "If they had jumped they wouldn't have been killed," Davis added. One body was removed from be neath ' the train. Two others were found In shallow water below the trestle.

He then visited two Rome hospitals. Later, receiving bo orpnans ana 20 mutilated and crippled children in the Vatican, he broke down and cried.

The Viennese talked of a Christ mas Eve miracle which spared the lives of all 34 persons aboard an Air France Constellation that crashed . short of the Vienna air port and exploded. Five Ameri cans were among those aboard. It feels like a miracle like the herald angels were our guard ian angels, said Shirley Hind man, 34,. of San Bernardino, Calif., a crash survivor. But there was no such joy in Zichem Zussen Bolder, Belgium, where 15 men trapped in the col lapse of tunnels used for mush room farming ; were presumed dead. Clear weather over most of the United States brought the cars out in droves, and traffic deaths mounted rapidly. The National Safety Council estimated there would be 620 deaths during the four-day holiday. A bright, folksy Christmas greeting to the world came from Britain's Queen Elizabeth. On ra dio and TV she said, "It seems to me that Christmas is just the time to be grateful to those who add fullness to our lives ... the prophets and dreamers, philosoph ers, men of ideas and poets, art ists in paint, sculpture and music. "Even so, we need something more, we all need the - kind of security that one gets from a happy and united family." She thanked those who had writ ten to say they would like to see Princess Anne and Prince Charles on TV but said, "We believe that public life is not a fair burden to place on growing children." .- President Eisenhower, following a quiet family Christmas at the White House,, was going today to his Gettysburg, Pa., farm to work on messages to the new Congress.

He has a clipboard holding a list of the addresses at which he and his crew pick up garbage. His pencil is poised expectantly over yours. A born coward, you have visions of overflowing, odorous garbage cans throughout 1959. You give him 10 shillings ($1.40). As the day proceeds you also give: The postman 10 shillings. The newsboy S shillings. Your window cleaner 10 shill ings. Your neighborhood handyman who mows the lawn 10 shillings. The laundry staff 10 shillings. The butcher boy 5 shillings. Night falls.

This comes from a-group of children, 8ged 9 to 11, singing Noel, Noel. You fork over half a crown (35 cents). Seconds later you realize this is madness, but it s too late now. Word spreads through the neighborhood. When the bell rings for the fifth time you leap out of your chair as though harpooned from the rear.

AP Movle-TV Writer :. HOLLYWOOD (AP)-The movie industry is ending another rocky year with its battle to win back its lost audience still unresolved.
