1914, is owned by the Isbrandtsen
Line, New York.
A message at IL am. from the
Weeks said the rescue tug Tur-
moil had made five vain attempts,
in worsening weather, to get a
towline aboard the Enterprise.
The 2:30 pm. message from the
destroyer Weeks said the list OF
the Flying Enterprise, around so
degrees yesterday, had increased
very slightly" But the freighter
was still buoyant and riding sat-
isfactorily."
Capt. Parker said he would con-
tinue efforts around the clock to
get towline aboard the disabled
freighter. wallowing 300 miles west
of the southern tip of England.
Intends to Stay With Ship.
An early message from the
Weeks said there was a possibility
Capt. Carlson would be taken off
his ship today, but later it was ex-
planned this meant after towing
commences"
This made it plain that Capt.
|Carlsen intended to see his beloved
ship all the way to safe harbor.
Until the Weeks sent Capt.
Carlson some magazines last night
his only reading matter was a
book titled "The Law of the Sea-
man." which he must now know
|by heart. u
Brawny .crewmen aboard the
1000 horsepower tug Turmoil
today maneuvered for hours to put
a messenger line across the waves
to Capt. Carlson, who could make
it fast and start the risky effort
for dozen boatmen to scramble
onto his tilted freighter. Then the
Herculean job of hauling huge
20-inch towing hawsers aboard
could begin.
Supplied With Food.
The Turmoil arrived shortly be-
fore midnight last night, and with
the air Of powerful searchlights,
tried three times to put a line
aboard.
Capt. Carlson, hanging with one
hand to the starboard rail of his
lurching ship, failed to catch any
of them and the Turmoil backed
off to wait for dawn.
The Flying Enterprise was list
ing so to 10 degrees. But despite
the fierce buffeting she took from
the worst Atlantic storm in SO
years, she still was buoyant.
The ship was broken across the
middle, through the third of her
five holds.
Capt. Carlsen, refreshed after
the Weeks managed to get line
to him and send across food, Gig
Iarettes, and magazines yesterday,
spoke briefly over his battery
powered radio shortly before dawn.
IF the weather remains in our
favor, as now, I would say we
have a fair chance of bringing
the Enterprise into port" he said.
The Turmoil figured it would
take at least three days and maybe
more to haul the freighter in. She
intended to make for Falmouth
but also picked out Brest, France,
and Bantry Bay in Southern Ire
land, as alternate hayens.

French Fear Invasion
OF Indo-China When
Korean Peace Comes
BY the Assoeia,ed Pres,

PARlS, Jan. 4.-French sources
said today they have received un-
official reports that Red China has
concentrated 200, 900 soldiers with
full battle gear in areas just north
OF the French Indo-C China border.
These sources said they did not
believe Red China would attack
1ndo-Ch while fighting con-
tinues in Korea. But they said
they were gravely worried about
an invasion whenever an armi-
stice is reached in Korea, freeing
masses of Communist Chinese
forces for action in South China.
Direct Threat Seen.
The French fears were echoed
by other United Nations delegates,
some of them from Southeast
Asia, who heard Soviet Foreign
Minister Andrei Y. Vishinsky
mention the troubled areas Of
South China, Burma. Thailand
and 1ndo-China yesterday.
These delegates said they con-
strued Mr.. Vishinsky's yelled
words as a direct threat of Com
munist action against those coun-|
tries sooner Or later.
Mr.. Vishinsky accused the
United States of preparing aggres-
sive measures against Communist
China along her southern borders.
He many times has accused the
United States of aggressive action
against North Korea and some
veteran U. N. delegates said it
appeared he was building the
groundwork for defense of Com
munist action whenever it comes
IN Southeast Asia.
Indian Official Disagrees.
Some other Southeast Asian
delegates disagreed, however, es-
pecially a representative of India,
who would not be identified. He
said all signs in India indicate the
Communists are trying to consoli-
date their hold on China and have
no designs, on countries to the
south. He isaid the main Peiping
worry outside China, besides Ko-
rea, is Formosa, and that if any
action is taken it likely would be
against FormoSa.
There have been recurring re-
ports from Southeast Asia ofI
buildupS of Red Chinese strength.
Some Asian delegates speculated
these reports were put out by the
French in order to attract more
aid from the United States. but
French sources Indignantly, deny
such motives. They say the situ-
alton in their areas in Indo-C China
is plain for every one to see.

COMPRESSED TIME.

COMPRESSED TIME.
A little insect In one short day
goes through all the experiences
of life from birth to death. Life
begins, natures. ends-all in one
day. But he has no sense Of time.
To insects and beasts life Is ale
ways long. Only man can think
of life as short. It is only by the
dim sense Of immortality that
man thinks his life is short. II is
because in some way he can view
1t from Gods side that time
seems compressed. When man
realizes he has powers to outlast
death, then any part Of eternity
seems small.
