Korea and Far East
Big Topics Of Churchill
Talk With Eisenhower.

LONDON, Dec. 27.-The big
things Prime Minister Churchill
wants to talk over with President
elect Eisenhower in New York
next month are Korea and future
Far East strategy. official British
sources said tonight.
Mr.. Churchill called a special
cabinet meeting for early next
week to brief his colleagues on his
coming chat with his old wartime
friend. Indications are he particu-
larry wants to sound out Gen. Eli
eenhower on his findings in Korea.
The Prime Minister will sail for
New York aboard the Queen Mary
December 81, arriving January S.
Three Days In New York.
His plans call for a three-day
New York sojourn with United
States elder statesman Bernard
Baruch, q visit with Gen. Eisen-
hover for an unspecified period,
q stop in Washington to pay re-
spects to President Truman and
then a two-week vacation in ia
maica.
A dispatch from Kingston. the
capital, said the whole population
of the Caribbean island was
pleased by word of his holiday
plans. officials and leading citi-
zens there called it the greatest
news in many years.
Official sources stress the in
formal nature of the talks be-
tween like" and Winnie" add
ing that detailed British economic
and financial suggestions will be
saved for a formal meeting be-
tween the two leaders in February
or March. No economic or fnan-
cial experts will accompany the
Briton this time.
No Detailed Discussions.
Proposals growing out Of the
recent commonwealth conference
in London are expected to be
preached in detail at the formal
session. The framing of these
approaches to the new United
States administration is still be-
ing worked out by commonwealth
officials.
The strongest possibility, accord
ing to official sources here, is that
the broad questions Of strategy in
the Far East will occupy most of
the two leaders time in their New
York talks.
Two factors are taken as weigh
ing against the detailed discussion
of financial or economic problems
at this meeting: They won't
have time for much more than
superficial survey Of the problems,
mo proposals stemming from
the commonwealth conference
could be put before Gen. Eisen-
hover yet because cabinets Of the
commonwealth countries have not
agreed on their final form.
Labor member Norman Dodds
said tonight he would ask Mr..
Churchill when the House of Com
mons reconvenes in January If he
plans to meet with Russian Pre-
mier Stain.

He challenged the administra-

Back in his Tennessee youth,

Aimed Early for Congress.
In a way. he started running
for Congress as a tensely ambi-

playmates then he was going to
Congress and made speeches to
the trees and rocks behind his
fathers barn to get. into practice.
There was a childhood craze,
too. about playing the fiddle. His
folks couldn't afford to buy one
so he trapped skunks and rae
coons to raise part of the 81 price.
1t was hair-raising experience
thereafter because young Albert
tried to teach himself. At times
his parents drove him and his
fiddle into the woods. But his
f1ddling finally paid off after he
got some professional help.
In his first race for the House
in 1888 he was trying to be as
dignified as Mr.. Hull discussing
tariffs. but during one speech an
showed a fiddle into his
hands and demanded that he play.
He did. then and later. 1t helped
him win his first election to the
House.
When it came to the Senate
race, however. he refused to use
the fiddle, suggesting that had
been carried far enough.
In the House he has been a
"middle-roader." Though from
Southern State. he was not COM
