MAYOR DEVIN OF Seattle, who
is now visiting Japan, has an intri-
guing project in mind for his city
of nearly half million people.
1t is an expansion of the city zon-
ing system, the idea being to zone
trees as well. One area, say, the
Queen Anne Hill district, would have
nothing but apple trees which would
all blossom forth in an eye-striking
profusion of beauty at about the
same time in the year. Another, the
Capitol Hill district, might have
nothing but plum trees.
The citizens could conduct cam
paigns and later vote for peaches,
prunes. cherries. or whatever trees
they like best so as to make them
exclusive" in their particular dis
trict
If carried out with the coopera-
ton of garden clubs. women's clubs
and those in charge of parks, Sc
attic would be the first city in the
United States to adopt the scheme
which might we'll become a major
tourist attraction
DON'T FORGET OUR Internal
ional Sea Fair scheduled in August
this year, say the visiting Seattle
businessmen.
This is going to be quite an event.

Korea Leader Fully Aware of Red Peril,
Writes Ex-Seattleite Now in Tokyo
FOR THE DEMOCRACIES."


This statement. coming suddenly
and so at variance with the accep-
ted opinion that any agreement be-
tween the Soviet Union and Ameri-
"a would mean peace for the world,
caught all the correspondents by
surprise and for few seconds there
was silence as they tried to digest
this statement. Finally. an Ameri-
can correspondent in the back of
The room queried:
Did l understand you TO say that
my USSR-US peace talks would be
, step Backward"
Clarifying his statement, the
President said: "Any such move
would be a losing step. You AM
orleans, when you promise some
thing do so with the intention of
carrying out that promise. The
other fellow (Russia) does so
merely to pin you down, never with
the intention of carrying out his
promises"
He stated the need for a firm
tand by the democracies, streSsing
hat they must draw a line, a de-
mite line, over which the Russians
and their satellites will not be allow
ed to step without immediate repri-
sails.
AS long as Korea and Japan are
neighbors they must make the best
of the situation and be good friends
S we'll as neighbors. Both Korea
and Japan face common danger.
However, Dr.. Rhee was not so naive
as to think that cooperation between
he two peoples could be effected
Immediately. He realized that there
was. UNDERSTANDABLE animosity be-
tween the two peoples and time
would be needed to bring about I'M
Outstanding between the two.
Korea, he went on, needs tech
nicians of all kinds, especially
japanese technicians who know
the problems of Korea better than
others. OF course, this too had to
await the passing of time to heal
historic wounds still sore from
80 years of domination of Korea
by the japanese.
The leader of the Korean Repub-
lie had found from his talks with
japanese government and civil lead
ais that they also shared his belief
that cooperation and mutual help
was absolutely necessary.
In answer to a question whether
he wanted American troops to re-
turn to Korea. he stated fatty: Il
think we are perfectly capable Of
handling our problems by ourselves,
bit the other democracies must do
their part.

communism. l asked General Mac
Arthur if the Communist Party
would be allowed to remain as a
legalized party in Japan, but he
did not answer my question. 1t is
presumably a question for the
japanese people to decide for
themselves
ITO us in Korea" he concluded,
communism is an ever present, SER
ious problem, and our communists
are very vicious"
When he departed from the con-
ference room at 1920 to keep an
other engagement, the President left
the impression that here was one
leader in Asia who was fully cogni-
zant of the deadly seriousness of the
dangers of communism and of the
need for combating it actively and
who was not afraid Of saying SO.

TOKYO, Japan, March lon the
fourth floor of the Hattori Building
in the heart of Tokyo, so Allied and
japanese correspondents awaited the
arrival of Dr.. Syngman Rhee, Pre-
sident of the Korean Republic Out
side. horde of American MP's and
japanese policemen were standing
guard.
AS the scheduled time for the press
conference came and went. Korean
Mission official handed out the text
of DR.. Rhee's statement in advance.
This statement expressed gratitude
for the hospitality shown to him
during his brief stay here in Tokyo,
and it said that the Presidents con-
Germ had been Ito try to establish
The basis for Korean and Japanese
understanding and goodwill, not to
establish any system of alliances.
He returned to this point time and
again during the interview. which
started at S.40.
Dressed in a black coat and a
dark gray suit, the President walk
ed in with a smile. Thanked on his
right by the flag of the Republic
of Korea, DIR. Rhee took off his
coat and expressed his pleasure at
being able to meet the press. He
sat down but, finding that his
voice would not carry and that he
could not see everybody, stood up
again and conducted the confer
cnce on his feet.
To this correspondent DR.. Rhee
gave the impression of trying very
hard - and succeeding remarkably
well-to create a good impression on
the press. He looked like a very gen.
ial person, more like country doc
tor than like the great statesman
that he is Although he was smiling
continually throughout the confer
ence. one could see the lines of suf-
fering and worry etched on his face.
Without bothering to read his
atement, he proceeded to answer
questions in very good English, al
though his Oriental way of saying
things made many of the American
correspondents ask him to repeat or
clarity what he had said.
He touched lightly on the contin-
ual guerrilla warfare that is going
ON within his country, adding that
he did not want Ito make too much
noise" about the matter.
A Pacific pact he felt, was ne
cessary for the security of the de-
mocratic Asian nations and Pre-
sidcnt Elpidio Quirino of the Phi
Iippines would be calling a con-
ference of interested nations to
agree on a general basis for an
alliance. He went on to say that
the japanese leaders should con-
slider seriously this matter of
Pacific pact, which. he considered,
should be drawn up on the lines
of the Atlantic Pact.
In a very frank and realistic view
of the present world situation, DR..
Rhee said that the democratic ma
tons are losing to the communists
in The cold war" giving ground
all over the world. From his past
experiences, he thought it was very
doubtful whether the democracies
could settle peacefully any differ
ences with the communists.

A CHRISTMAS MEDITATION
Submitted by The Rev. Victor Alfsen

The grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men. ."-Titus 2,11.
 What glorious Christmas prom ise of redeeming grace in these words, "The grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men," Unfortunately, many people do not know, the meaning of grace" Once after Dwight l.. Moody had studied the Biblical term grace" for several days, he asked the first man he met, Do you know anything about grace?" Grace Who?' the man replied.
 A child, wide-eyed in amaze ment at the colorful Christmas scene in a Saint Louis depart ment-store window, pointed to the cradled Babe and eagerly asked, "Whos that?" When the mother answered, Jesus" the child con- tinued uncertainty, Jesus who, Mom?"
 Similarly, if we would inquire of people in this holiday rush, Do you know anything about Mary and Joseph?" many of them would counter: Mary who? Joseph who? Do you mean Joseph Stalin?" If we would say to our financiers, Do you know the way of redemption?" many would an- sWer: What redemption? Re- demption of war bonds?" If we would put the question to brok- CTS: What do you think of Beth lehem?" many would demand: What Bethlehem? Bethlehem Steel?" How necessary, then, to help others find the heart of Christmas is this truth that "the grace of God" the undeserving mercy our heavenly Father shows us, hath appeared to all men,"
 For centuries men had been totally baffled by the strange writings which were found in Egypt, the hieroglyphics. Then in 1799 there was discovered the Rosetta Stone. Upon that stone were three parallel columns, in hieroglyphics, demotic, and Greek. There was the key. Greek men knew. Using what they knew, they unraveled the mystery of the hieroglyphics.
 Christ has been exactly this to lfnumerable people. He has me- diated to them God. The distant and incomprehensible, for whom their hearts longed, became near and real and understandable in Jesus. He that hath seen me hath seen the Father"
 A mother put her little daugh- ter to bed, and turned out the light. The child anxiously asked, But Mother, am I to be left alone, and in the dark too?" "Yes, my dear" answered the mother, but you know you have God with you all the time" The little girl replied, "Yes, I know that God is here, but want someone
