NepaI's Parliament
Adopts Interim Rule
BY the Associated Press

NEW DELHI, India, Dec. 90
Nepal's parliament has voted to
create an interim Government in
cluding popular leaders" as a step
in transferring power from the
Himalayan Kingdoms dictator
premier to the people.
Announcing the parliament's
action at Katmandu, a member
of a Nepalese delegation confer
ring here with the Indian Govern
ment said Premier Nohum Shum-
shere had yielded to pressure from
botn India and steadily encroach-
ing Nepalese insurgent forces.
There were indications, how
ever, that Nepal was not prepared
to accept Indian Prime Minister
Jawaharlal Nehru's suggestion
that refugee King Tribhuvana
be restored to the throne
which his three-year-old grandson
Gyanendra has held since Mohum
Shumshere deposed him early in
November.
The Nepalese spokesman said
parliament had approved a pro-
posal to form cabinet that will
rule until a constituent assembly
is elected in 1853 to frame a new
constitution. The 1948 constitu-
ton. which has not been COM
pletely implemented. will remain
in force until writing of the new
basic law.

DRAFT

The Senate and House both
passed bills to keep the peace
time Selective service machinery
in operation. The House bill
provided that only Congress
could authorize inductions. The
Senate bill would permit the
President to do SO when Con-
gress is not in session. Instead
of taking either of the bills
passed by the House or Senate,
the conferees agreed to extend
the present draft act for a per-
iod of one year, Only four mem
bers of the House voted against
the extension.
The Korean crisis has changed
many Congressional minds with
respect to the draft. In fact, the
Congress has agreed to give the
President power not only to put
the draft in motion in case of a
national crisis, but he would al
so be given power to call the
National Guard and organized
reserves on active federal duty.

The House has adopted bill
which passed the Senate last
year giving the Secretary of the
Army, with approval of the Sec
retary of State, the authority to
enlist $500 aliens in the regular
army. After five years service
they would be rewarded with
citizenship.
After careful consideration,
decided to vote against the bill.
In the first place, there are many
American veterans anxious to
get back into the service and, in
my opinion, they should come
first. In the second place, the
bill provided that the enlisted
aliens should be scattered all
thru the army. ] question that
procedure from the standpoint
of security. A few bad ones in
the right places could do unlim-
tied damage. In the third place,
the United States has established
immigration quotas for every
country in the world. In some
countries people have been
waiting eight or ten years for
their turn to come up. In my
opinion, it is unfair to them to
bring $500 aliens into the army
and reward them with citizen
ship.

The whole threat to world

SLAMS, Russia today would be

Another mistake was the
great price paid Stalin for his
very short participation in the
war against Japan. 1t was this
deal giving him so much terri-
tory in Asia that led to the seiz-
ure of China by the Communists.
Our veterans won the greatest
war in history. Politicians,
greedy nations and our State
Department have not only lost
us the victory, but advocated
costly policies which now threat
