Armistiee Hopes
DwindIe Fast

MUNSAN, Jan. 20. (INS)-The
Korea armistice conference sank
deeper into the mire of a pro-
longed deadlock today when the
Reds declared they will forever
reject a ban on airfield construc-
ton and insist on unconditional
repatriation" Of all war prisoners.
After two join committees of
delegates went through further
fruitless sessions at Panmunjom,
Radio Peiping quoted a Communist
newspaper correspondent tonight
as saying the talks are rapidly
deteriorating."
The newsman, Alan Winning

munjom negotiations, blamed the
"sinister ature" of alleged Allied
air violations for the failure of
the delegates to make any prog
ress toward agreement.
Red China's radio also charged
that the american aggressors are
stepping up" ground action on
Korea's east front in the Mum
dung valley section with an eye
to dragging out the armistice ne
gotiations."
1t declared that the Allies "must
reconsider their standpoint on the
military airfield and prisoner is
sues eff they have any real desire
to reach an agreement"
Allied n~egotlators Monday pa
tiently reiterated and explained
the necessity to limit airfield de-
velopment and give prisoners the
right to say whether or not they
wish to return home.
The Reds, however, refused to
bulge from their opposition to
both proposals. Nevertheless, the
paralyzed talks were kept alive
when the delegates agreed to meet
again Tuesday.

commentator.


Chairman Christenberry of the
commission is a little more realis-
tic about these things. He is going
to make Walcott produce, or else.
The cor else" comes at a time
when many are demanding strict
enforcement Of boxing regulations
and the elimination of the hood
lums from the sport.
When Christenberry succeeded
Eddie Eagan as head of the com
mission, he was charged by Gov.
Thomas Dewey with the task of
taking over boxing and making it
clean.
Christenberry has announced
publicly that he will clean it up
or quit as comission chairman and
lend all his efforts to driving leg
ilized boxing out of New York
state.
If people like Bocchicchio per-
sist in lousing up the business, it
may be driven under cover DON
than anybody a realize now.
This racket twice was outlawed
in New York, and today is being
attacked from more sides and with
greater force than ever before.
It is really in a sorry state, a
fact apparent if you read the pa
pers. Contract-jumping by Wal
colt does not help the situation
any to speak of and could help
nightly toward landing of the
final blow.
What some Of the people in box
ing cannot realize all at once is
that Christenberry is leveling. He
is a tough and honest man who is
determined to mend the busted
fences left by Eagan's soft re-
gime.
Christenberry will take on the
small fry as he gets to them. He
is starting with Walcott, the
heavyweight champion.

NEW YORK, Jan. %. (INS)-

NEW YORK, Jan. 22. (lNS)-
The New York State Athletic
commission has given Jersey Joe
Walcott Is days in which to agree
to a defense Of the world heavy
weight championship-Which is Is
days too many.
If Walcott fails to sign for a
title fight in the specified time
he will be shorn of his title in
New York, as he has been by the
Louisiana commission.
There is a seldom enforced rule
in the books saying that a cham
pion must defend his crown every
six months. This is the one that
Bob Christenberry, New York
commission chairman, is throwing
at the reluctant champions.
Walcott won his title last July
from Ezzard Charles with a con-
t~ractural agreement that he would
give Ez a return match within 90
days. Walcott and his manager,
Felix Bocchicchio, wiggled out of
that agreement and now would sit
back indefinitely.
Bocchicchio's reply yesterday to
the commissions ultimatum was
that he and Walcott would not be
stampeded and would make their
defense in due course.
They both should be thrown out
of boxing for violation of con-
tract. Moreover, they would be
and may be at least deprived of
that title. Walcott without that
title is just anoher average third
rater.
Ironically, Walcott was honored
only last week by the New York
Boxing Writers as the man who
had done the most for boxing in
1851. What he did specifically
was to violate that contract.
Our boxing writer's, of which [
am one, are very liberal in inter-

Artificial Breeding
Unit Progressing

After a rather rapid change Of
breeding technicians, the Kent
County Unit of the Delaware Arti-
ficiaI Breeders Cooperative, under
the local management OF Lloyd Nc
Matt, technician, is settling down
again and Mr.. McNatt reports that
the number of COWS being bred
compares very favorably with the
past years records.
ElWoOd Gruwe1l, President of the
Local Unit, feels that the work Of
McNatt is proving satisfactory and
advises local dairymen to use the
service offered by this locally di-
rected and managed cooperative.
The Directors of the unit are, in
addition to Elwood Gruwell of Eel
ton, George Robbins of Milford,
George G. Simpson of Houston,
Francis Thomas of Ma. ydel, Henry
KOzicki of Clayton and Edgar Dill
of GOldsbOrO, and Robert L. Nelson
of Harrington.
Any one of these Directors will
be glad to explain how the service
can be used by the dairymen and
how to become a member. This in
formation can also be obtained by
calling the County Agricultural
Agents Office in Dover.

while some of these tires can be
considered a palliative, they GER
tainly are not the answer to severe
snow and ice conditions"
Describing tire chains as the best
self-help available to the driver,
the committee said reinforced tire
chains reduce braking distances on
both snow and ice about half, in
crease forward traction on ice
about seven times, and on packed
snow out pull conventional tires
nearly four times.
While most tests have been made
on passenger cars, research in the
last two years has been concen-
trated on the jackknife hazard to
tractor semi-trailer trucks on snow
and ice. The report summarizes
as follows:
1T has become evident from this
research that the best means of
preventing jackknifing is to keep
all tires rolling, in order to main

same time get maximum grip for

Basic Rules For Winter
Driving Are Helpful

Brains plus chains equal sound
advice on snow and ice!
That is a streamlined summary
of the many important recommen-
datiOns contained in "Basic Win
ter Driving Rules, a new booklet
just published by the National
Safety Council which sets down for
the first time the results of II
years of test research by the Coun-
cil's Committee on Winter Driving
Hazards.
The booklet is aimed at reducing
the nigh death and accident rates
resulting from inadequate traction
and reduced visibility-the major
winter driving problems from No
vember through February.
Six basic rules for safe winter
driving are offered:
1. Get the feel of the road. Try
your brakes occasionally, while
driving slowly and away from other
traffic, to find out just how slippery
the road is.
2. Slow down. Adjust your speed
to road and weather conditions so
that you can stop or maneuver
safely.
). Keep windshield clear. You
must see danger to avoid it, so be
sure your headlights, windshield
wiper blades and defrOsters are in
topnOtch condition.
4. Use tire chains on snow and
ice. They cut stopping distances
about in half and increase starting
and hill-climbing traction by four
Milford chronicle., 1952-11-21

to seven times. Even with the help
of chains, however, lower than nor
NAL speeds are a must on snow and
ice.
5. Pump your brakes to slow or
stop. Jamming them on can lock
the wheels and throw your car in
to a dangerous skid.
6. Follow at a safe distance.
Keep we'll back of the car ahead so
you have room to stop. Remember
that without tire chains it takes
s to II times as far to stop on snow
and ice as on dry concrete.
Other important findings by the
committee, composed of 80 experts
in fields Of autOmotive engineer
ing, law enforcement and traffic
safety education, include the fol-
lowing:
All tires, except big truck sizes,
are now made largely of synthetic
rubber. Synthetic tires wear bet
ter, perform normally on dry or
wet pavements and have other ad-
vantages. But on snow and ice they
skid about 8 per cent farther and
have IA to 35 per cent poorer for
ward traction ability than pre-War
natural rubber tries.
Special winter tires of Is differ
ent types were tested for traction
The tests showed that while some
tires gave improved traction under
certain conditions over convention
al tires, their overall improvement
is not great enough to warrant less
caution when driving on slippery
surfaces. The same tests also dem.
Cnstrated that special winter tire
treads do not approach the per-
formance Of reinforced tire chains
and the report concludes thai

slowing or accelerating. Due to in
creased traction provided, it was
found that reinforced tire chains
made jackknifing virtually impOs-
sible with a tractor semi-trailer
combination on level lake ice at
20 miles an hour"

ed last winter on frozen lakes and
winter roads near ClintOnville, Wis.
They were under the direction Of

Better. Than Wire
lHE tape recorder has found universal
favor because it is easily transported and
operated, uses no needle, erases itself and
can be used over and over again; the tape,
which cannot chip, warp. crack or break, can
be '1ooped" to play message endlessly. and
it gives the clearest reproduction of the
human voice yet devised.
This gives1t a big advantage over the old
fashioned wire recorders, in that wire costs
more, is more likely to break and can be
edited only with great difficulty. Also, it
takes about six or seven minutes to rewind
wire, whereas spool of tape rewinds itself
in 80 seconds.

much like portable phonogaph. You speak
