7 Protestants Beaten
By Colombian Crowd
BY the Assoeiated Press

BOGOTA, Colombia, Dec. 29.-
Protestant missionary Ralph Os-
born Hines of Toronto, Ont, and
Colombian lay preacher Hipolito
sDiaz were beaten yesterday by
policemen and civilians while en-
route to conduct a service SO
miles northeast of Bogota, an
other missionary said today.
Missionary James E. Golf said
Mr.. Hines and Mr.. Diaz had
J crossed a river en- route from
Honda to Cambao when they
were stopped by two policemen
and four civilians. searched, and
abused while their Bibles and
hymn books were seized. One
civilian hit Mr.. Hines with a
cane. while other civilians and
the policeman knocked down Mr..
Diaz. Mr. Golf added. His account
continued:
A police sergeant told the two
men the people of Cambao had
ordered the police to throw the
preachers out, adding that the
Conservative Party is in power,
and this is a Catholic country"
The two Protestant churchmen
were forced at pistol point to
enter the river and saved them
selves from drowning by holding
onto banana trees floating by.
The incident is the latest in a
series between Catholics and Pro-
testants in Colombia the past two
years.

Flyers Case May Bring
u. S. Protest to Moscow
BY the Associated Pres,

The United States may protest
to Russia against extensive Soviet
military activities in Hungary as
a result of Russian questioning ot
the four American airmen de-
tanned by the Hungarian govern
ment.
| Russia has a treaty basis fol
maintaining military forces in
Hungary. The peace treaty made
by the Allied powers with that
former German satellite country
at the end of World War II rec
ognized RusSia'S right to maintain
forces there for the purpose OF
guarding the Soviet supply line
to the Russian zone of Austria.
Officials said today that the
treaty made no specific restric-
tions on the extent of Soviet mill
tary activity, but that the spirit
OF the undertaking was that mill
tary activities should be limited
to those necessary to assure the
security of the supply line, which
would normally mean guarding
against sabotage or other possible
forms of disruption.

Hoover Fears Ruin
For Nation Unless
Evils Are Corrected
BY the Associated Press

BOSTON. Dec. 20. - Former
President Herbert Hoover said to-
day the country has been exposed
in the past year to more dishonesty
in officials and Governmental de-
partments than at any time in
history.
And he warned that unless this
evil were stamped out Ito the last
Iofficial concerned" the United
States would decline and fall like
the great republics of the past"
The former President spoke ON
a transcribed radio forum pro-
gram, Reducing the Federal
Wasteline," broadcast by the Mas
Isachusetts Committee for the
Hoover Report.
Tax Scandals Cited.
Singing out for particular criti-
clsm the scandals in the tax COL
lecting agencies of the government,
he said:
I have no doubt that if the
Hoover Commission's recommen-
dations on collectors of internal
revenue and other political ap-
pointees had been accepted two
and one-half years ago-when
they were made-these scandals
could not have occurred"
He said the dangers of corrup-
ton in tax collection weren't news
to the members of the commits
sion which condemned the pres
.ent method of selecting tax COL
lectors, and added:
They are mainly selected by
political bosses. They are GER
tainly selected with their ap-
proval. The determination of
their fitness is pretty much based
on the ability to get votes or re-
wards for doing So"
Three Wrongs Listed.
Mr.. Hoover contended three
things were wrong with the pres
ent system: One, obligation to To-
cal bosses; two. lack of profess
sional competence, and three, alb
sence of standards of integrity.
He pointed out that the Hoover
Commission recommended that
the posts of collectors of internal
revenue be filled through the BIZ
partisan Civil Service Commission
after vigorous inquiry into the
loyalty, character and integrity of
applicants.
Mr.. Hoover declared that 1--WE
must set our house in order, re-
examine the basic blueprints of
our republic, insist upon the
fundamental standards of ethics
and install better organization in

Women's Editor

Women's Editor
NEW YORK, Sept. 10 (INS)-
A petticoat can be a psychological
uccess or a physiological flop
depending on a woman's size and
age.
So says Emily Wilkens, the de-
signer generally credited with the
revival of the petticoat six years
ago.
She insists that for women UNI
der size 16 and age so, there's
nothing more stylish than a full
skirted under-pinnig this witter,
But for ladies over size 16 and
the mid-century mark "please,"
she says, "Hdon't."
"There comes a time Of life"
intones Miss Wilkens, "and a
breadth of waistline that will not
stand the puffed out crinoline."
But in this season of high fash
ion for fancy lingerie, the design
err points out that any-age, any
size women can get a lift from a
touch Of frivolity at the hem Of
her gown.
Regardless of age or avoirdu-
pois, she can be smart and more
feminine with a dainty ruffle or
