World Set For New Year
Despite Uneasy Peace
"DENNIS THE MENACE"
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Much of the world today let out
Its belt to accommodate Christ
mas overeating, continued its hol
iday into the weekend and looked
forward to New Year celebrations.
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.

Church.
U.S. troops in Morocco heard a
Christmas message from Dr. Ed
win T. Dahlbere. president of the
National Council of Churches. He
told them to strive for an inner
peace and added: "From this
inner peace there could oome the
wider peace of the worm tor wnicn
all nations now wait."

Train Kills

Day.
Grimsley was treated for shock
at a hospital In this central Ala

peered as he was, walking along
the trestle with Jean Muggins and
Sara Thomas, both 16, and
Dwayne Hodge, 19, a college stu
dent. 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

found In shallow water below the
trestle.

U.N. Secretary General Dag

Christmas visit to troops of the
U.N. Emergency Force in the
Gaza Strip,, keeping peace be

It was a busy day for Pope
John XXIII. After celebrating
midnight mass Christmas Eve in
the presence of the diplomatic
corps of the Holy See he celebrat.

at noon. He then visited two Rome
hospitals.
Later, receiving bo orpnans ana
20 mutilated and crippled children
in the Vatican, he broke down and
cried. Smiling through the tears
he told the children: "You know,
in this life you only cry twice. The
very young, and the old, they can
cry."
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

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.
The Eisenhowers planned to stay
at the farm through New Year's

The Chinese Reds, after firing

One person was killed and nine

One Way To Beat Boxing:
Stay In Tierra del Fuego '
LONDON (AP) The annual
war of nerves with the British
dustmen, postmen and holiday
carolers has been fought and as
usual lost,
New strategy is needed. The
way to beat the Boxing Day and
caroling racket is to spend the
Christmas and New Year holidays
somewhere else. Next year, Tier
ra del Fuego, here we come.
In Britain, the day alter Christ
mas is known as Boxing Day. This
is the day when the people who
serve you throughout the year
such as your newsboy come
around with a box. Only now they
don't wait until the day after,
they come the day before Christ
mas, v
You are expected to put money
in the box.
The .Borough Council, which
hires the dustmen (or garbage col
lectors), frowns on this practice.

Nevertheless on Dec 24 the door
bell always rings and there stands
the head dustman.
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. The two small chil
dren are asleep. The doorbell
rings. The two small children are
instantly awake and wailing.
There also Is wailing at the
door. 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.
"Don't you dare strike those
poor children!" warns your wife.
"I'm not going to strike - the
bloody carolers, you reply,
"I'm going to dismantle the bleed
ing doorbell!"
This is done. Briefly, there is
peace. Then the living-room door
opens and in comes your oldest
son, aged 24. The time is 9:45
p.m.
"Good morning,"' he says. "Is
it Christmas yet?"

HOLLYWOOD (AP)-The movie
industry is ending another rocky
year with its battle to win back
its lost audience still unresolved.
The producers were trying hard
er than ever in 1958, and they had
some success. The general quality
of films was good, but still not
good enough to assure a happy
tuture for the movie business.
Our annual assessment of the
year's product uncovers no stand
out film, as in the last two years
with "Around the World in 80
Days" and "The Bridge on the
River Kwai. Several films won
hearty approval from critics and
audiences, but few had that magic
hats-in-the-air quality.
