Olson Moves Closer
To Title Chance With
Victory Over Hayes
By the Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 49,
Swift punching Carl (Bobo)
Olson. smashing his way toward
the middleweight boxing title
vacated by Sugar Ray Robinson,
has cleared another hurdle.
He pounded out a convincing
10-round decision last night over
formidable Norman Hayes of
Boston in a slam-bang battle.
There were no knockdownS.
The Honolulu-born Olson, this
country's No. / contender for the
crown, received the unanimous
decision of two judges and the
referee. They gave it to Olson
by $3.50, 591a-5O1a and 1873.
California scoring provides IL
points a round.
Gross gate receipts were
$22,734. Olson weighed 1863;
Hayes, 1922.
Hayes a GameSter.
Olson led from the start, max
ing Hayes with left hooks to the
body and rights and lefts to the
jaw.
They fought toe to toe at times.
Hayes, a game 21-year-old Negro,
stood up under a barrage of
punches to the face and midsec-
ton that would have f1attened
many good boxers.
The fans gave the Boston
gamester a fine hand for his will
ingness to drive in and mix it up.
Hayes made his best showing
in the fifth, when he hurt Olson
with left to the body and a hard
right to the jaw, and again in the
eighth, when he had an edge by
forcing the going with a two
handed attack.
Hayes left eye, cut in the sec
ond round, bled and bothered
him. He said that threw off his
timing, and that he would like an
other crack at Olson.
The 24-year-old Olson carried
on a relentless attack, varying
long-range shots at Hayes chin
with tremendous body blows in
side.
Olson's style, particularly his
stiffness in switching from head
to body betting, drew praise from
old-timers.
Hayes manager. Johnny Buck
ley. who managed Jack Sharkey
to the heavyweight championship,
said Olson was high-class ring
man who deserved the rating of
No. challenger.
Olson tentatively is matched to
meet former Champion Jake La
Motta in a 10-rounder here jan
uary Is. He said Hayes was "a
good, rugged young fighter who
should go long way"

how Here's what had to say:
81 am glad of the opportunity
for us to get together like this
so that can meet you and you can
meet me. Don't think that Pm not
aware of what rumors must have
preceded me as | came out to visit
you. Our Republican friends have
been working overtime with those
rumors. They've told you that l
am a Southern politician"-and
what an awful person that sounds
like when they describe it. But
you should know that these same
Republicans have been busy down
South, too. Down there. they tell
my neighbors that | have North
ern leanings." Northern leanings,"
as you can guess, are something
pretty bad!
But I'll tell you something. !
don't believe the Republicans are
going to have much success with
these rumors this yea. For one
thing, the Democratic Party came
out of the National Convention at
Chicago with a greater spirit Of
unity than I can remember. Real
unity, I mean - not phony Re-
publican unity. The Republicans
claim they are still united because
some of them are still speaking
to each other = in public! But at
Chicago we sat down together a
round the committee table to draft
platform and we found that we
could understand each other. We
drafted the best, the most forward
looking platform that the Demo
cratic or any other party has eve
had. And we went away from
Chicago happy.
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1952-10-11

I'll tell you another reason why
the Republicans aren't going to
stand a chance in their efforts to
divide US. At Chicago, we nominal
ed a man to be our Presidential
candidate who is living proof of the
strength of the democratic system
and the vitality of the Democra-
tic Party. In the past there have
been issues on which we Democrats
were deeply divided at least we
though they were issues. Too often
they have been allowed to become
symbols instead of issues. We
fought each other over symbols
and forgot reality.
| believe that Governor Steven
son is bringing new vision and new
genius into these fields. On civil
rights, for example, he has ex
pressed beliefs, principles, and pro-
grams with which all good Demo-
Gratis can find some measure of
agreement. We can heartily echo
him when he says that "the time
has come to talk sensibly about how
we can make more rapid progress
in this field rather than how we
can make more votes"
Governor Stevenson has reaf-
firmed his acceptance of the Demo
cratic Platform. Unlike the Repub-
lican candidate he is not finding
it necessary to write his own plat
form. AS one who work hard and
intimately in the drafting Of that
platform, | am proud of Governor
Stevenson's endorsement. | am con-
fident that we can go on to build
our Democratic programs in a
genuine spirit of accord
Then, Congressman Dawson can
Tell you that | developed my views

Chicago last month. To the best
of my recollections, | said some

region. l know what hard condi-
tons can be, and what they can
do to people. AS result, long
ago l decided that a basic condi-
ton of peoples social relations was
economic, and since | came to Con-
gress in 1886 I've worked stead
tasty for legislation that would
better the economic condition of
the common people Of America,
without regard to race or color
of skin. In that way, | sincerely
believed that | was helping to
solve some of the fundamental
problems that vex our nation. |
also believed that my Republican
colleagues, including the Republi-
can candidate for Vice-President,
were hurting the cause Of democ-
racy when they bitterly opposed
practically everyone of these great
programs for the good OF the COM
mon man.
| know, from experience, that
many of the tensions in our socie-
ty both in the South and the North
have been relieved because eco
nomic conditions have teen bet
tered.
My philosophy is simple and
brief. 1t is not rigid or dogmatic.
| am not convinced, fer example,
that | know all the answers. But
| do believe:
/. That we are not going to
solve any of the problems between
races unless we give constant at
tention to the economics involved.
AS we improve econor1ic condi-
tons, we release to great ex-
tent those tensions created when
any two peoples live side by side.
2. One of the tragedies in our
efforts to solve our civil rights
difficulties has been the degree Of
obstinancy on both sides. If we
sit down together in spirit OF
good will, it can be done! Congress-
man Dawson and | saw it done at
the Democratic Convention in Chi
cago. This is the position we have

taken in our Democratic Platform.
We have not committed ourselves
to specific legislation, but we have
pledged ourselves to work on state
and federal levels to secure GER
tain rights which we recognize to
be guaranteed by the Constitution.
Governor Stevenson has heartily
affirmed this position. | believe
it will win the support Of all Am
orleans of good will III all parts

the people of Israel spilled their

Explains Owners Position

One Of the most complex problems
facing Western policy makers: now
is what-if anything-to do about
Communist China. All free-world
statesmen, presumably. agree that .
China dominated by Soviet COM
munism is not desirable, and that
the Red imperialism should not be
allowed to spread further In Asia.
But on the question Of whether
the West can or should do anything
to drive China herself away from
the Moscow orbit, there is wide diver-
gence of views. The ideas about how
to treat China-if q truce is reached
in Korea and the Reds do not en-
bark on new aggression-fal into
two main categories. tough" and
~"Soft."
The tough" approach is identified
with the United States which: Cd
Refuses to recognize the Communist
regime in Peiping; Cd continues to
recognize and support, with military
and economic assistance, Ch1ang
Kai-shek's Nationalist regime on

all American trade with the Com
munist-held China mainland and
has won q. N. embargoes on strategic
supplies: a. is developing policy
to exploit every other practical
means of making life dihicult for
the Peiping regime.
On the other side, the soft" ap-
proach is identified with Britain.
which: (1l Recognizes the Chinese
Communist government: CD has
written OF Chang Kai-shek on the
conviction that the Chinese people
never will accept his leadership
again; CD continues some trade IN
civilian goods with the Chinese
mainland, while going along with
embargoes on strategic items as Q
korean war measure; "a wants to
avoid. anything that might smack
of an offensive" against Peiping-
even q "cold war" offensive.
There are varying degrees OF agree
ment with one or the other OF these
approaches among other nations OF
the free world. India. for example,
would like to go further along the
"soft" line than Britain herself. Inc

The District public schools have
serious vandalism problem. John a.
Riecks. associate superintendent IN
charge Of buildings and grounds, estl-
mates 1t costs the District taxpayers
anywhere from $4,000 to $lOO,O0O 2
wear to repair senseleSS damage done
to school property.
The situation has grown 90 pao
that definite action now Is underway
to curb the destruction OF school
property. This is two-pronged drive
headed by school officials with the
fun cooperation Of civic groups IN
the city.
More Wotchmen
The Board Of Education last week
began move to obtain $s2, 500 IN
its budget for the hiring Of an ad-
ditional SO watchmen. It Is felt that
touring watchmen would cut down on
the number of illegal entries into
the schools at night which inevitably
result In vandalism.
Here are some Of the things schools
have to contend with:
Broken windows alone last year
cost $43.O 900 to replace. IN addition.
other damage from throwing amounts
ed to $500. This included torn
window shades. broken Hight fixtures

be considered typical Of the conflict
ing points Of view. however.
It should be understood that the
Washington-London differences being
examined here do not concern what
should be done II Communist China
starts new aggression, breaks Ko-
rean truce or even blocks an arml-
stice there. British Prime Minister
Churchill made clear during his re-
cent visit to Washington that Britain
will join in tough countermeasures in
the event Of new aggression. This Is
q touchy subject with the Churchill
government In Parliament now, but It
may be assumed that the British
would go along with strategic bomb
ing of Red Chinese cities If Peiping
starts new adventures.
The differences over how to treat
Communist China in the absence Of
new trouble-making on her part
spring from sharply conflicting judy
ments on what are the best means to
the same end-that end being a
really democratic China, or at least
q Tito-like split breaking Peiping'S
alignment with Moscow.
Carrot or Stick

over whether the way to get a balky

is to beat him with stick or lead him

What to Do About Red China Is Major Problem West

there lies q growing feeling that time
Ii RAPIDLY running out for the West
In Asia-that unless there Is q change
{ In China, the Reds not only viii take
firm root there but sweep all OF Asia
with them In the next i've years or
SO. It Is argued, for example, that
Japan cannot remain Indefinitely
divorced from the markets and raw
materials Of the China mainland. II
: the Japanese should see no immediate
prospect Of q change in the present
situation, they would be tempted to
begin thinking in terms Of q deal
with the Chinese Communists. The
answer, then, is that eventual re-
alignment must be forced with all
possible speed.
The British see dangers beyond
China in any such effort. OF real
concern to them, for instance. is
Hong Kong. New pressure against
the Chinese Reds might cause them
to try to take over this British colony,
lying on their doorstep. In any event.
Hong Kong's economic troubles would
be greatly increased by shutting on
the trickle Of trade in non-strategic
goods now going on with the main-
land.
Asiotic Reaction
Also, the British contend, Western
pressure on China that is not purely
defensive would ALLEVIATE India and
other newly independent nations In
Asia.
American oficials recognize these
dangers. But many of them think
it is time to shift emphasis from the
reasons against positive action to
contriving ways to make it work.
They do not claim to have the an
swers yet as to exactly what should
be done. The drastic possibilities
include taking the wraps OF Chang
Kai-shek's Nationalist forces on
Formosa, naval blockade Of the
China mainland and either overt or
covert aid to anti Communist guer-
rillas within China.
All these pro-and-con arguments,
Of course, must be carefully weighed
before decisions can be made on such
moves.

strains in the Peiping- Moscow rela-
tionship because the more Russia
Is called on to help China. the more
subservience she win demand as the
price Of that help.
g. When the price becomes higher
/. than the Peiping Communists are
willing to pay, the chances are they
would follow Tito's example and
move to come to terms with the
West.
4. In Tito's case, the break came
while his government was under
terrific economic pressure from the
West, and at q time of great tension
with the United States over the
shooting down Of American planes
In Yugoslayia.
Chonces Without Pressure
On the "no" side the argument
runs this way:
/. Western pressure would merely
drive the Chinese Communists closer
to Moscow, strengthening their con-
viction that they have nowhere else
to turn.
2. It would help the Reds to con-
solidate their hold on the Chinese
people by giving them more grounds
to blame Western ''imperialists" for
their troubles.
s. SO far as the Tito case is con-
cerned, 1t should be remembered that
his break with Moscow came when
he had contact with the West
through diplomatic relations and
through his Representatives in the
United Nations. # it had not been
for. the assurances he received
through these contacts. he might
never have dared stand up to Stain.
The people who say mo" to
tough approach do not argue that an
opposite soft" policy viii lure the
Chinese Reds away from Moscow.
Their position is simply that take
it-easy approach seems wiser for the
long run, because this is the one
which should give the Chinese greater
