KardeIj Says Chinese
Peril Peace Of World
with Attack on Korea
BY The Assoeio,ed Press

BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, Dec
30.-Yugoslav Foreign Minister
Edward Kardelj declared last
night that Communist China's in
tervention in Korea is bringing
the world a step nearer to a new
world war;"
Crossing of the 38th Parallel in
Korea by Chinese troops" Mr..
Kardelj told the Yugoslav Parlia-
ment, places upon the govern
ment of China and all those who
support it mighty responsibility
before history"
Stressing the danger of a third
world conflict, Mr.. Kardelj said
"it is the duty of all mankind to
open it's eyes to this danger and
do the utmost to preserve the
peace"
Record Arms Budget.
Mr.. Kardelj spoke at the clos
ing session of Parliament which
unanimously adopted a national
budget for 1851, containing a rec
ord military appropriation of $582
million. The foreign minister and
other government leaders sup
ported the outlay as necessary to
defend Yugoslavia against the
threat of invasion by Russia and
her Cominform satellites.
Mr.. Kardelj denounced as a
fraud Moscow's claims that Soviet
foreign policy is serving prog
ress." He charged that Russia is
using revolutionary movements,
especially in Asia. to impose her
own domination on other nations.
The foreign minister declared
world peace "can be saved only by
following the principles of the
United Nations" and pledged Yugo-
slavia to work for the strengthen
ing of the u. N.
4-Point Plan Urged.
He offered a four-point plan
for peace in Korea:
/. A cease-fire and maintenance
|of the 38th Parallel as a dividing
line between North and South
Korea.
2. Establishment of U. N.
commission to supervise elections
for a government of a United
Korea.
3. Gradual withdrawal of all
foreign troops from Korea and
the lifting of the blockade of
Formosa."

Turfmen Vote Strike
For Next tuesday
AT Tropical Park
LITTLE SPORT
By the Associated Press

MIAMI, Fla, Dec. 30.-The
Horsemen's Benevolent and Pro-
tective Association has called a
strike against Tropical Park race
course, effective next Tuesday.
The simmering feud between the
HBPA and the track came to a
boil last night when 200 members
of the Florida division of the
HBPA voted unanimously to take
:drastic action" unless Tropical
President Nathan E. Herzfeld
meets their demand for a $4,000
increase in purse distribution.
Dan Chappell, HBPA national
president. urged the horsemen to
change the original strike call for
Monday to Tuesday.
Monday a Gala Day.
He pointed out that Monday
New Years Day-was one of South
Florida's biggest days; that most
of the State Legislature" would be
at the track; thousands of winter
visitors were in town for the
Orange Bowl game and would
come to the track, and it was one
of the most important days Of
the year for Miami merchants.
The horsemen are asking Trop-
ical to increase each purse $500
for all races with purses under
$4,000, retroactive TO December %.
Following on oft-times stormy
discussion, they unanimously re-
jected a two-point compromise
proposal submitted in letter by
Tropical Racing Director Gerald
Brady.
Brady offered to increase purses
to a minimum of $4,000 day for
the final IA days of racing. The
present minimum is $1,000.
Arbitration Voted Down.
The second offer by Brady-ap-
pointment of a three-member ar
bitration board to consist Of an
HBPA member, track repre-
sentative and a third member Sc
lected by the two-was beaten
down by the 10-man Executive
Committee and HBPA officers.
Chappell said rumors that Trop-
ical Park would close its barns.
plow up the track and shut off the
lights and water were unfounded
because a racing commission
ruling wouldn't permit such ac-
ton.
Herzfeld was reported en- route
to Miami from New York City,
It is estimated that the HBPA
represents about IS to 80 per cent
of the horse owners in the area.
Brady has indicated he expected
to continue operation of the track
with non-HBPA member horses
plus some HBPA members who
might not observe the strike vote.

will be difficult. perhaps impos-
Isible, but she must give it a try.
The hard work does not faze her,
although it thins her down to a
point that one of the old back
stage hands at the Capitol keeps
telling her she needs more meat
on those bones" Being five feet,
seven inches tall and weighing
only 10 pounds-this week, al
though she usually is 115-does
not worry her. Nor does it keep
her from being one of the pref

anyone has seen lately.
Il r 4
Lark has her favorites among
dancers, but she does not want to
initiate them. Miss Fonteyn, the
Sadler's Wells prima ballerina, is
the best dancer she ever saw al
though she thinks Miss Shearer,
a singularly intelligent girl who
starred in Red Shoes" may be
better eventually.
Her preference among male
dancers is more confusing.
''It is so hard to choose between

business, Lark could well be the
envy of many more successful and
older performers. She has psy-
chiatrist for a father-Dr. Curtis
lis a Veterans Administration spe-
cialist-and what better kind of
a male parent could a girl ask on
the threshold Of such a neurotic
profession as the theater?
At IS. she is more poised. serene
and disciplined than lots of
dancers one meets who are twice
her age.
Moreover. she talks as if she
knew precisely how most things
were going to work out.
X II II
The idea of being a professional
dancer occurred to her early in
life. Her father. who knew about
such things, thought of dancing
as the right medicine for some
physical Embellishments she suf-
lfered as a small child. One look
at her today is sufficient to prove
that no parent ever prescribed
more brilliantly.
| Once started on dancing, Lark
thinks she became an addict. Al
least, she never has had any other
idea since.
How does she feel about the
fact that it is a crowded profes-
sion and has so many brilliant
top notchers, such as Margot Fon-
teyn. MORA Shearer. Nora Kaye
ETC.?
They're wonderful" she says
Their perfection and fame is
such an inspiration.
They make Lark want to dance
better; not merely better than she
does but better than they do. This

Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly"
she says, a terse statement OF
one of the Nations minor dilem-
mas. "Astaire is so wonderful
at his age. So creative and SO
versatile. But Kelly is every bit
as wonderful, and such a dis
ciplined and perfect dancer. So
athletic and so young, too."
Lark could be a model if dane
ing were not so much more ex-
citing as a career. She has been
a model, a Harry Conover which
is one of the two best kinds of
models to be. It was a sort of
accident, at least unintentional
on her part and her mothers,
who, by the way, always accom-
panieS Lark.
THE secretary of Cells ballet
school suggested it when I was
15," she says" He knew Conover,
who never advertises for models,
needed some one like me one day
and asked why mother and I did
not go over. We did and I got
the job just like that"
However. wanting to be a bal
lerina so keenly keeps Lark too
busy for outside activities.
