"Atrocity" Is
Reds Label
For Killing
BY SAM sUMMERLIN

MUNSAN, Korea R-The Com.
munists' chief truce negotiator to-
day called the killing of a Red
war prisoner on Koje Island an
atrocity. And he dropped thinly-
yelled hint of possible reprisals
against Allied prisoners held in
North Korea.
United Nations authorities on
Koie had reported one Commu-
mist prisoner was killed and an.
cLler wounded Thursday by the
accidental discharge of a guards
life.
North Korean General Nam II
demanded that the Allies 'imme-
diately stop these atrocities. Then
he told the u ~ delegation:
Il clearly remind you that to
protect the war prisoners is mu.
tual and reciprocal responsibility
Of both benigerents. You should
not fail to see the consequences
of your action
Mans reference to ''see the con-
sequences" had an ominous ring.
Again he charged the u. N. with
preparing ''for another mass
slaughter"
A short time before the Amin
Ute truce session broke up, Allied
authorities in Tokyo, Seoul and
k0Je announced seven Red POWs
we're killed and 16 injured Thurs
day and today in new disorders.
/ Tie new disturbances we're GER
tain TO embitter further the al
ready stalled talks. The Reds we're
unwilling to agree to recess and
insisted that the delegations meet
again Saturday at II am.
Maj. Gen. William X. Harrison
Jr., senior Allied delegate, told
Nam that his ''hysterical reac-
tons" to the results of recent
screenings among North Korean
and Chinese military and civilian
internees did not alter the fact
1t had been done in a completely
fair manner.
During the screening, the u. N.
said it found only 10000 of its
10000 captives were willing to
return to Communist territory.
In Vast iaetOn the State Depart
ment said the u. N. Command
us within its legal and moral
rights" in insisting on voluntary
repatriation ot war prisoners, I'm
der terms Of the Geneva Conven-
ton.
Nam charged the Allied screen.
ms of prisoners sis in violation of
the Geneva Convention and an at
tempt to deceive the world. :"

U.S.. Braces
For Possible
Red Blockade
BY JOHN IA. HicHToWER


WASHINGTON Up - Secretary
Of State Dean Acheson came home
from Europe today to report to
President Truman and seek a
speedy Senate okay on the develop.
Ing alliance between Western Ger
many and the Western powers.
Ore of the major problems be-
fore Acheson is that of counter
measures by the United States,
Britain and France against the
tightening of lines between East
and West Germany and the Soviet
imposed travel difficulties between
West Germany and Berlin as re-
prisal for the forging Of new Ger
man links with the West.
Some consideration has been
given here, il is understood, to
making a show of power on the
Western side, perhaps by flight OF
military planes in the German
area, in order to remind both the
Russians and the Germans of West
ern firmness in German policy.
The Air Force is reported to have
prepared elaborate plans for set
ting up a new Berlin airlift in
case the Russians disrupt the move
ment of vital supplies TO the city's
Western sector. But some official
doubt that they will resort to the
full scale blockade.
If a blockade develops il seems
quite probable that new con
sideration will be given to chal-
longing the Soviets with an Allied
armored train or truck convoy un-
der military orders to 60 through
Red border guards.
STATE Department aides said
Ache5on would give Truman a full
report on his week-long European
mission Immediately, will confer
with responsible congressional
committees promptly and will
make a nationwide radio-television
broadcast Monday night (hour Ia

They Brought st. Nick Home
BY Joseph Papara

The Christmas season is at hand
and millions of boys and girls are
undoubtedly wondering what good
old St Nick" will do for them this
year, with scarcely a thought on
what they might do for him. But
history records at least one good
deed performed for St Nicholas,
though one has to turn back the
pages a full nine centuries. Behind
this good and unique deed were
the good citizens OF Bari, Italy. In
1887, they gave st. Nicholas final
burial place in the crypt of a
church bearing his name.
Nicholas, no legendary person,
was an archbishop with an over
whelming sympathy for the poor
and suffering and soft, warm spot
in his big heart for children. The
wealth left to him by his rich par
entS, we are told, was used to ease
misery wherever he found il. He
was forever bringing gifts to good
children, but on the naughty ones
and this might be just legend
he used the birch switches carried
for that purpose.
Records in the Zion monastery at
Myra, now in Turkey, show that
Nicholas was born in the nearby
town of Patara about 1850 years
ago, and that he was Archbishop
of Myra at the time of his death,
on December 8, 342, and was bur
led there.
Myra was devastated by the Sar-
acenS in their conquest of Asia Mi

nor. The thought of so many sa-
cred places resting in the hands of
infidels must have tormented all
fervent Christians; but the aroused
citizens OF Bari, on the Adriatic
coast, launched upon a daring ad-
venture. Merchants of the city out
fitted a small fleet, normally used
in trade with the Levant, and set
sail for Myra.
A silently-operating landing par
ty made its way ashore and, some
how, managed to rescue the bones
of Saint Nicholas from the ruins of
a temple. And back to Bari the
men sailed. greeted by gleeful
throngs who found room for the
precious relics in what was then
the Church OF st. Stephen.
According to Bari legend, some
80 persons were cured of variety
of ailments on the day st. Mich
olas' bones were buried beneath
the church. And ever since this
church has been a famous mecca
for pilgrims from all over Europe.
On his feast, December 6, special
ceremonies last all day and most
OF the night
The most novel part of the festi-
val is the ceremonious carrying OF
the statue of st. Nicholas far out
to sea in a barge by Bari sailors.
At nightfall, when the streets
along the port and leading to the
churches are crowded with pill
grims all in gay dress, the barge
returns. While torches and sky
rockets take over where Bari's in
different street lights give in, the
statue is borne on the shoulders of
brawny men from church to church
until all but the sturdiest are
weary. Then the statue is lovingly
restored to the priests of the
Church of San Nicola. The relics
of the saint are never removed
from the church for this annual
festival.
ST. Nicholas is the patron saint
of Russia and of serfs; of Greece,
Naples, Venice and Freiberg; of
mariners, thieves, boys and girls.
He is the patron saint of thieves
because he is said to have persuad-
ed bandit gang to return its loot.
His mercy is directed to boys be-
cause, legend says, he revived
three lads whom an innkeeper had
slain. He saved three daughters
of an impoverished nobleman from
a life of infamy by flinging three
heavy purses through the window

Room For Him?

No room for Him? Not for the
Prince of God,
Whose very smile should warm the
trembling clOd,
Whose very steps would speak of
ransomed earth,
Whose voice would speak of mans
eternal worth?
No room for Hlm-God's little holy
Child,
Whose word would quiet all life's
tempestS wild?
Oh, is there room today-the wide
world round,
For Him in whom all utmost JOY
is found?
Some room for peace and hope and
faith and love?
Some room for Him who leads to
heaven above?
Some room for mercy, tenderness,
and light?
Some room for kindness, honor,
truth, and right?
All, if the heart can find no room
for Him,
It's larger hopes for life grow very
diml

Lad Of Nazareth

A little Lad of Nazareth,
With curly, touSled head,
Wandered through the village
Wherever His fancy led
He met with other boys and girls
And played till day grew dim;
How happy we're the mothers
When their children were with
Him.
His small brown hands were
strangely strong
Yet moved in gentleneSS;
His youthful eyes were often filled
With coSmic tenderness.
He left us blessed memories
OF His sorrows and His joys,
And a very special feeling
For all other little boys.

of the mans castle, which made
him also patron saint of girls.
Several miracles were attributed
to the saint during his lifetime.
During a voyage to the Holy Land,
violent storm threatened the
ship, terrorizing the crew. But
Nicholas prayed calmly and the
storm subSided. Later, a sailor fell
from a mast and, legend has it, the
archbishop called him back to life.
Nicholas spent most of his life
giving his love, sympathy and in
heritance away. II was largely a
one-way street. For the saint, in his
great charities, came into conflict
with high civil authorities. They
had him thrown into Jail when he
opposed their miStreatment of the
people and spoke out against them
in his sermons.
AT Christmas it is well to think
of this saint not just as Santa
Claus" the bringer of gifts, but as
one whose donations to the poor IN
spire the true Christmas spirit. II
is also nice to know that seven cen
turies after his death, those friend
ly people of Bari gave him an hon
ored and peaceful resting place.
And what can we do for st.
Nicholas at this late date? Why,
we can follow his example: make
this a happier Christmas for those
who are less fortunate than we.
