AP) If Premier Khrushchev means what he says and is prepared for the risks involved in carrying out his threats, the days of the United i Nations as an effective instrument of world peace are numbered. Khrushchev seems to be seeking nothing less than a powerless palace of words a sort of latter day League of Nations and a true descendant of the organization which did itself to death a quarter century ago with an overdose of vcrbiape. The U.N. has been an effective and hopeful organization, which has dramatically upheld peace on many an occasion. But if Khru shchev goes through with all he threatens, the U.N. will die a lin gering death. The Soviet leader's newest blasts are, in effect, as close as he could come without saying so to a declaration that the world Communist movement intends to continue messing in the internal affairs of weak or susceptible areas. Khrushchev told the U.N. Cor-! respondents Association Friday he would uphold Soviet interests by "relying on our own strength" out side the U.N., if he fails to get his way. Just what that mean's is not entirely clear, but it has the tone of threat. At the same time, says Khru shchev, he will deliver a punch in the nose to anybody who ques tions what is going on in areas under his control. He wants the U.N.'s peace-making machinery stripped down. He wants equal representation for what he claims are three world blocs Communist, capitalist and neutralist. He wants each of these armed with veto power over U,N. actions. He thus, in effect, wants U.N. machinery which is powerless to act against the Communists. If such machinery already ex isted, there would be no quarrel today over events in the Congo, unless the West wanted to go to war over it. The Soviets would have been swarming all over that newly independent African coun- try. U.N. action got in Khru- shchevs way, and this has an gered him and steeled his deter mination to sweep the obstacle from his path. In" theory, if the U.N. -machin- ery were broken up into three equal participants, nobody could get hurt. But the only purpose of the world organization is to move in and hurt somebody who vio lates the charter.! If it cannot do that, then there is ho U.N. and if one of the two greatest powers does not abide by the charter or withdraws from the U.N.; then the world organization no longer can have any power to preserve peace GETS LAOS POST SAIGON, Viet Nam (UPI)-So vlet Ambassador to Cambodia Alexandre S. Anikine has been named Russia's first ambassador to neutralist Laos, It was an nounced Friday night. Laos recog nized the Soviet Union last month after a coup ousted Its pro-West ern government. , DAYS!

During the preceding year cost of operating the ambulance amounted to $1,712.25. This amount does not include replace ment of tires and other mainte nance costs, nor does it cover insurance cosls. Collected from services rendered was $1,357.85. Mileage covered from July 1 to September 30 was 1,099 miles. This included eight calls an swered during September. Accord ing to the physician in charge, two patients would have died if ambulance service had not been immediately available. Donations for a new ambulance are coming in slowly. The com- mtintinities of Malin and Merrill have pledged support. Modoc and Siskiyou counties will both con tribute, but individual contribu tions will be needed to purchase the vehicle now being loaned to the city. Other business discussed byi council was a proposed under ground drainage system. The city engineer presented estimated costs for a system to be laid four feet underground on major city streets. The project was shelved for future discussion. Representatives from Tulelake Garden Club, Mrs. Ken Thomas and Mrs. Eugene Smith, outlined plans for landscaping the post office grounds. This project is to begin immediately with the lawn to be planted this fall and shrubs and flowers added in the spring. The council approved the project.

I remain trom one ot me great political drama, of the century- the Army-McCarthy hearings. And after six years, those turbulent days which split the nation, shook the highest offices in the land and kept millions glued to their TV sets, are fading into the dimness of history. Sage and witty Yankee lawyer Joseph N. Welch, one of the lead players, died Thursday. His gruff voiced, aggressive co-star, Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy, died three years ago. To many, they were the hero and villain of the piece. The supporting actors Brig. Gen. Ralph Zwicker, Maj. Irving Peress, Roy Cohn, David Schine, Robert T. Stevens, Ray Jenkins and the bit players are dispersed around the country, leading lives of relative obscurity. The Army-McCarthy hearings were the climax of McCarthy's controversial crusade against what he considered the infestation of the government by Commu nists. The Wisconsin Republican an tagonized the Pentagon by up braiding Zwicker, then com mander of Camp Kilmer, N.J., for the promotion of Peress to major. Peress, a dentist, had been accused of Communist lean ings. Charge Cohn Coercion The Army charged that Cohn, a McCarthy aide, tnea to co erce favored treatment for Schine, another aide who had been draft ed. McCarthy countered that Schine was being held as a hostage by the Army to persuade the sen ator to call off his investigations. . Stevens, then Army secretary, clashed with McCarthy over the lawmaker's right to question Zwicker. The secretary later ac quiesced. The senator s own subcommit tee then convened the explosive Army-McCarthy hearings to in vestigate the exchange of charg es. McCarthy stepped aside as chairman for the famous inquiry. Welch, dry-witted Iowa born Boston lawyer, was engaged to serve as counsel for the Army without pay. His pixie humor and quietly intense tilts with McCar thy won him millions ot fans He later portrayed a judge In Ihe movie "Anatomy Of a Mur der," acted as host on a TV mys tciy program and discussed con stitutional issues on another tele vision show.

This i- about as far behind the news as The Wainwright steered by ra you can get. Aar to keep from slamming into It concerns a report submitted to the Commerce Apartment bv the skippers of the good ships Wainwright and Hilgard, explain ing what happened to those two launches they were towing last month. The Wainwright and the Hilgard are small vessels used by the U.S. Coast & Geodetic Survey to locate sunken rocks and other un dcrwater obstructions by drag ging a wire along the ocean bot tom. On the evening of Sept. 11, they were operating off the coast of Rhode Island when they suddenly became aware that they were in the path of hurricane Donna. By then it was too late to make for a sheltered anchorage or to replenish the Hilgard, which was short of fuel. So the vessels dropped anchor behind a breakwater off Point Judith, R.I., and prepared to ride out the storm. The tide, however, soon rose above the breakwater. leaving them exposed to open wa ter. At this point, the Wain- Wright's anchor chain broke. By crawling over a wave-swept deck in 100-mile-an-hour winds, the crew managed to pull up the chain and attach a spare anchor. Thirty minutes later, the anchor Squatters Organized ACAPULCO, Mexico AP Ten thousand screaming squatters with machetes, guns, knives and clubs poured from their hovels on a hilltop overlooking this resort city at 3 a.m. to repel invaders. A primitive alarm system con sisting of an iron triangle and sev eral steel rails had been sounded by guards. Heads of families in hundreds of homes blew emergen cy whistles. This time it was a false alarm. Celebrants observing a saints day had touched off fireworks that sounded like pistol shots. Once the squatters learned there was no danger, they calmed down and joined in the fun. There wi4no sleep in La Laja that night. King Lopitos had proved again the efficiency of the best-organized squatters colony in Mexico. The history of La Laja (The Flagstone) began a few years ago when promoters decided to build a bungalow-type hotel on a finger of land curling around along a tropical bay. About 100 squatters lived on the hill overlooking the colorful resort city. City officials promised them another site if they moved. They moved peacefully and work started on the hotel, now Las Brisas, operated by the Hilton chain. But the city didn't live up to its promise. A voune Mexican in his 30s known simply as Rcy iking) Lo pitos decided to take action. He found a quick following. On a hillside near the entrance to Acapulco was a beautiful but undevoloncd 740-acre ' piece of land. It was ideal: Near the city, with a perfect view, and because of its terrain it could be protected in case ot necessity., The squatters began building a new shnntytown. To raise funds for basic necessities King I-opito charged 80 cents per month for squatters rights. He threw the settlement open to anyone who qualified, not just the 100 who had been ousted. Within weeks there were 2.000. Todayl there arc 13.000 in La Laja. A first step was to set up an alarm system as protection against ouster proceedings. All able-bodied residents were pledged to come to the hid of La Laja when the alarm sounded. The owner of the land, a rich c. i I f:i-J .r,. :t "rrn nrla- ' ' 'taking pel ion.

Although the Hilgard was try ing to conserve fuel, both ships were forced to use their engines to ease the strain on the anchors. They were bouncing about in spray so thick it made visual steering impossible. As darkness fell, matters grew worse. tne Mly but the Hilgard had no radar. It could have received di rections from the Wainwright by radio, but the radio wouldn't work. Consequently, the Hilgard drift ed perilously close to the jetty and found that it could not move away while dragging anchor. It was decided to free the anchor, but a power failure kept the winch from operating. It also was discovered that the launch being towed by the Hil gard was pounding against the side of the ship with enough force to split her timbers. Although the Hilgard was roll ing more than B0 degrees and 25 foot waves were breaking over her deck, a crew member fought his way to the winch, released the anchor chain and cut loose the launch. Meanwhile, the line to the launch the Wainwright was tow ing got caught in the screw. and! was cut in two. And that is the story behind the loss of those two launches. Other wise, the Wainwright and the Hil- gard had an uneventful night. !

The very first evi dence of arthritis in any crea ture has been preserved in the spine of a Comanchean dinosaur IUO.000,000 years old. Arthritis is reported in the remains of neolithic man, ancient Egyptians, Peruvians and early American Indians, to name only a few examples.
