Except for isolated guerrilla &C.

U. N. troops crossed the 38th paral-

Now the United Nations is faced
with the rehabilitation of Korea,

scribed as a rough estimate and

BILE sums would have to be furnished

years to put Korea back on its feet.
The rehabilitation of Korea was

STASSEN:
Proydo Coils Him SiIIy

Harold E. Stassen, former gov.
ernor of Minnesota, created a lot Of
interest with his letter to Joseph
Stain asking for a face to face
meeting of Americans and Rus
slams in an effort to stop the drift
toward war"
Stassen did not receive a reply
from Stain, but the official voice
of Communist propaganda, Pravda,
published an article calling him
silly, crude, and ridiculous, among
other things.
The article was, in fact, a flat
rejection of the Stassen proposal.
The writer made it plain that the
Soviet government does not con-
slider Stassen's letter worth a formal
answer.
The article said in part: "Stassen
demands no more, no less than a
change by the Soviet Union of its
policy. 1t is not difficult to see that
Stassen is not only crude but also
ridiculous in advancing this wild
demand which excludes all POSSIBLE
ity of a serious view of any degree
of document worked out by the
president of Pennsylvania univer-
sity in cooperation with veteran
warmongers S enhower and
Dulles"
The former aspirant for the Re-
publican presidential nomination
had little to say about the article.
He indicated he would wait for a
direct reply from Stain.

TRUMAN:
Armament for Peace

President Truman, speaking be-

sembly on United Nations Day,
told members of the world organi-
cation that the United States would
prefer universal disarmament, but
that this nation is committed to re-
arming because it is the only way

The President used Korea as an
example of what united effort by
U.N. members can accomplish in
stopping aggression. He termed the
invasion Of South Korea by Com
munist forces a direct challenge to
the world organization.
As for disarmament and the solu-
ton to world problems, Mr.. Tru-
man said the U. S. was willing to
enter negotiation, but only if all Ia
tons proved their good intentions.
Such negotiation could only be car-
ried on if there was concrete evil

 Sounds hard to take but six health research workers at An chorage, took it. And Dr. John C. Haldeman, medical officer in charge of the Anchorage public health service research center, was one of them.
 Dr. Haldeman, here for a meet ing of scientists studying Alaskan problems, said he took his larvae in a capsule. The others .''just ate them," he told a reporter.
 Why larvae for lunch?
 The doctor said he wanted first hand information on the effects on human beings of the immature insects.
 For protection of the six they were kept under close observation and treated to prevent severe in- lection.
 Dr. Haldeman said the broad fish tape worm is quite prevalent in Alaska, especially among peo- pie who eat lot of fish. In one community, he said, 16 per cent of the population was found affected by the tape worm, which feeds on the intestines. He called it a ma jor health problem.
