Mr.. Charles Osborn, West &C.
Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Bannister,
West Geauga presented present
and future school enrollments in
the Chester, Chardon, Newbury
and Munson areas. They showed
that present Munson enroll
ment is rs pupils and the con-
servative estimate shows that
by 1855 Munson should have
180 pupils. At present Munson
could have 80 pupils.
Other factors presented,
showed that there are ZIG
classrooms in the county today,
and predicted figures show we
can expect to need 327 or Ill
more rooms by 1856. The gen.
eral population of the county
has increased 212 per cent

dent Scofield's office the panel |
mentioned above presented the
material to the members of
the board. Besides the enroll
ment and building needs they
also presented the financial pic
ture. The material was given
to this panel by Superintendent
Scofield and almost year of
study was made before draw
ing the conclusions that they
reached. There is 1895, 900 more
bonded Indebtedness for school
buildings in the county. This
is enough money to build 80
classrooms, but if we need Ill
more in the next four years
it will not last very long.
Mr.. Robert Bannister of
Chesterland acted as spokesman
for the panel at the Saturday
meeting. The purpose of the
study and the meeting with
the County School Board was
to recommend that the County
Board please make master

the county schools to the best
advantage of all concerned.

Britain Emphasizes
Hands-0ff Stand on
Jap-China Relations
By the Assoeiafed Press

LONDON, Jan. 12.-The Foreign
ONCE made plain today Britain
opposes any Western efforts tt
influence Japan's future relations
with China.
A spokesman told reporters thai
Foreign Secretary Anthony Eder
Informed Secretary of State
Acheson that Britain believes
Japan should not be pressed tc
enter any commitment" with
China either the Communist
authorities in Peiping or the Ma
ltionalist authorities in Formosa
Mr.. Eden, was said to have added
that Japan should be left free tt
decide "in her own best interests
which Chinese government she
wants to deal with after the peace
treaty restores full independence
to the Tokyo government.
Gave Views at Farley.
Mr.. Eden's views were conveyed
to Mr.. Acheson in the course oi
their Washington talks earlier
this week when the general subject
Iof Japanese-C Chinese relations was
under study.
Mr.. Acheson apparently had
suggested Britain should associate
herself with the United States in
advising the Japanese to sign a
treaty with Generalissimo Chang
Kai-Shek's Northumberland to
announce the intended move be-
fore the peace pact is ratified.
Mr.. AcheSon's idea may have
been to insure easy passage of the
necessary ratification legislation
through the United States Con-
greSs.
The United States officially is
committed to leaving the decision
up to Japan. British informants
claimed there is no doubt. how
ever, the United States has made
it clear to Japanese leaders they
would prefer japanese recognition
of the Chinese Nationalist authori-
ties in Formosa.
q. S. Reaffirms Stand.
In Washington the State
Department yesterday re-
affirmed the American policy of
letting Japan decide for itself
on its relations with China.
Diplomatic authorities at the
same time reported they were
pleased that Prime Minister Yo-
shida already has indicated that
Japan, in its own interests, in
tends to follow an -Commu-
mist policy after regaining it's
freedom Of action following
ratification of the peace treaty.
Britain's present attitude toward
Japan stems in part from desire
to see that industrial nations ira
ditional trade restored with the
Chinese mainland.

Rubber Roads
"BeSt We've Got" ="
Says Engineer:

Baltimore road engineers are quoted
by the Associated Press as saying their
test strip of rubber-asphalt road is
THE best we've got"
Deputy Engineer W. L. Chilcoate
reports the stretch of suburban thor
oughfare with natural rubber powder
added is standing up well'' after two
summers and one winter of hard use.
He says Baltimore will observe this
road experiment closely to decide
whether or not to build all future roads
out of rubber-asphalt. He estimates a
rubber road replacing a standard as
phalt road with a life span Of % years
would have to last only Eve years longer
to be economically desirable. Prelimi-
nary results from test rubber road strips
in l3 states and Canada indicate rub
Der roads may last great deal longer,
and also be more resistant to skidding.

Natural Rubber
Production Hits
New High in 81

The year 1851 was a record one for
natural rubber. World production
reached approximately 100000 tons
10000 tons more than the 1880 pre-
vious' an-time record.
Over. 95 per cent of this tonnage
came from Southeast Asia. About a
third, more than 100000 tons, came
from Malaya alone. Even though this
figure is below Maiaya's 1850 record
output, it is, nevertheless, a remarkable
achievement.
The Malayan rubber growers have
maintained production despite con-
tinued harassment by Communist ter
rorists One in every Is rubber planters
has been killed since the beginning Of
the Emergency, as have thousands of
other Malayan civilians including small
farmers, tappers and other plantation
workers.
Hundreds of acres of rubber trees
have been slashed and made useless.
and thousands of tons of rubber have
been stolen or destroyed by the Reds
In some areas, Communist intimida-
ton has idled thousands of plantation
workers for weeks at time.
Inthe face of such obstacles, Malayan
rubber tonnage for 1851 represents an
outstanding production feat, and as
the year ended, important new steps
were taken to combat the Communist
menace.
World absorption Of rubber, mean
while, has continued to rise, with the
1881 total of new rubber (natural and
synthetic consumed reaching z ,325, 900
tons. This is an increase of more than
four thousand per cent over 1900, and
is nearly twice as much as the 1910
figure. 1t is estimated that by 1860.
world demand will require some
100000 tons of rubber annually.

Will the u. S. Government allow

Will the six million Malayans con-
tinue to be able to look to United States

and remain as strong friend and ally

These are questions which must be
answered in 1852. On the answers will
hinge the security and future Of many
millions of people, whose way Of life
depends on rubber.

fthis tonnage, about SO, 900 came
from Malaya, an active battle-ground
in the fight against Communism. As
the chief cash crop Of Malaya, natural
rubber sold to the u. S. kept this stra-
tegic Southeast Asian country Of six
million people economically stable, in
spite Of pressure by the Communists.
RubbeF-A Tremendous Asset
Natural rubber was also a tremen-
dous asset in the critical financial prob
lens Of the sterling countries. United
States purchases, at a 1851 average of
4S11f per pound, totalled an estimated
$3.50 million. Nearly half of this came
from Malayan rubber exports. The dol
Lar value Of Malayan rubber alone was
greater than the combined value of all
export goods from Great Britain to the
UnitedIStates including textiles, whis-
key, automobiles and machinery.
Behind these vital statistics is the
drama of one of the most courageous
lesinmodernhistory. Hemmedinby
dense jungle, rubber planters have held
on grimly during 1851 against the daily
attacks Of Red bandits. Protecting their
workers, getting out the rubber for
Americas stockpile, they have at the
same time been outposts of freedom in
Southeast Asia.
