Says Law Aids in
Prosecution of
Desertion Cases

Pursuant to Chapter 222 OF
the 1851 Session Laws of the
State of Montana, the Uniform
Reciprocal Enforcement of Sup
port Act was adopted as law in
the state of Montana, accord
ing to information from the Of
flee of County Attorney Bert w.
Kronmiller.
The laW provides that when
ever a parent of a child fails
to support his or her child in
the state of Montana, and has
fled from the state to another
state, such parent or parents
failing to. support such child
may be charged with failure to
support a child or children in
the state of Montana, and the
petition may be enforced by
the courts of the state to which
the parent has fled. .
Last week the county attor-
ney'S office extradited Alvin
thinner from the state of
Washington. where he had fled
and left his minor children in
Big Horn county without any
means of support. :
At a hearing held before
Judge Guy c. Derry in the dis
trict court in Hardin, thinner
was sentenced to a term of
three years in the state pen
itentiary at Deer Lodge, for
abandoning and failing to sup
port his minor children.
The sentence was suspended
by Judge Derry on condition
that thinner pay to the clerk of
the court the amount of $50
each week until all expenses
of the court proceedings and
the cost of eXtradition were
paid and until the amount of
$500 in accumulated alimony
was fully paid and likewise,
required thinner to report to
the clerk of the district court
each week designating his
whereabouts and setting forth
what work he was doing.
This week a similar COM
| plant was filed 10y County At
torney Kronmiller against Ray
mond Chavez, charging him
with abandonment of his minor
children, and the attorney is
proceeding with extradition of
the defendant, under the new
law providing for the criminal
enforcement of abandonment
and non-supprt of minor chill
dren. 4,.-~- ~
Kronmiller stated that in
numerous cases a parent or
parents, and particularly IA
theirs of minor children, have
abandoned and failed to sup
port their children in Big Horn
county and have fled to other
states in order to avoid the
Judgment and decree of the
courts of Big Horn county pro-
viding that such parent or par
entS are required to maintain
and support their minor chill
dren, and that it is the purpose
of the county attorneys office
hereafter to file criminal cases
against all such persons in Or
der to avoid further expense
to Big Horn county in the sup
porting of minor children hay
ing been abandoned in the
county. 49,.
The attorney further stated
that it will not be so easy for
a parent to now flee from the
state. and avoid payment OF
support money for the support
Of minor children, as the law
now specifically provides that
the guilty parent can be picked
up in any state and the judg-
ment enforced against such

Constantine Brown:
Soviet Miqht Welcome Move
Mexican Proposal to Break Korean Deadlock War Prisoners
Could Open Door for Ceose-Fire Por|eys Within U NJ

The proposal Of the Mexican
government to break the Ko-
rean deadlock by an agreement
Of the United Nations to repatri-
ate to neutral countries those
prisoners Of war who are deter
mined not to return to the
Communist paradise" is being
welcomed by Western diplomats.
Nobody actually believes the
Russians are going to permit
their puppets to accept this logi-
cal Mexican solution. It does,
however. open the door to trans
fer the cease-fire parleys from
the hands Of the military at
Panmunjom into those of the
diplomats in New York.
Such a transfer would mark
the first time that armistice
negotiations Of a strictly mill
tary nature were handled by
civilians. Moreover, while our
representatives at the Panmun-
JON parleys speak In the name
OF those United Nations mem
bers who have participated In
some form or other in the mill
tary campaign. every member of
that world organization would
be entitled to have his say once
the negotiations were shifted to
New York. The Asian-Arab
group. Soviet bloc and the strict
ly neutral members would have
the same right to propose and
decide on solution as the coun-
tries which have participated in
the military expedition.
The Mexican proposal will be
discussed. If approved by West
ern members of the u. NJ, as the
October session of the General
Assembly. Our diplomats hope
that by that time the converse
tion in Moscow between the
members of the Politburo. Soviet
general staff and the Peiping
representatives headed by Pre-
mier Chou En-lai will have
ended. They have been in
progress for several weeks.
The only positive news that
the West expects from the Mos
cow confab Is through positive
action. II the Chinese point of
view prevails We shall be faced

the extremely favorable offers
made to them by the United
Nations. They could have gotten
the seat occupied by the Nation
alist Chinese government in the
U. N. despite the nominal op-
position of the American dele
cation and would have obtained
formal recognition of the
Peiping regime by an over
whelming number of nations
Of that world organization.
Eventually. they were told, the
United States would have to
follow. But the Kremlin said
mo" and the Chinese generals
packed their bags and returned
to their homeland.
II the Politburo should decide
that a cessation of the shooting
war in Korea would be to its
advantage, for whatever Interior
motives it may have, there is
no question that the armistice
pourparlers now hopelessly
begged down at Panjunjom will
be transferred to New York.
And there the skilled diplomats
can have their field day Of
oratory, .subrosa negotiations
and discussions in dozens of
committees and subcommittee.

What Is the Cold, Realistic Truth?
Both Eisenhower and Stevenson Are Beudded and Confused
Over the Most Vital Issue of the Doy-Foregn Policy
David LoWrence:

Two bewildered, befuddled
and confused candidates for
the preSidency-and neither one
of them coming to grips with
the tragic international stu
alton. That's the way the cam
paign is shaping up on the most
vital issue Of the day-foreign
policy.
Gov. Stevenson offers "negoti-
alton" with the Communists.
Gen. Eisenhower offers "liber-
alton" for the oppressed peoples
behind the Iron Curtain but he
backtracks as soon as this bit of
forward-looking philosophy is
miSrepresented and distorted on
the stump by President Truman,
Gov. Stevenson and Secretary
Acheson.
The Democratic nominee is at
least consistent with the Tru-
man-Acheson policy of retreat,
compromise and appeasement.
The favorite phrase used by the
administration to describe its
foreign policy is "containment
Of Russia" This is a synonym
for passivity-the Soviet Union,
with its control Of TOO million
people, is to be permitted to de-
velop and consolidate its posi-
ton while the United States is
to do nothing but threaten war
by means Of an increasing
armament program in the
United States, a small army Of
NATO divisions and a paper
army called "the European de-
fense army"
Meanwhile, what is the cold,
realistic truth? The European
nations are backing away from
their arms program because
they simply cannot afford it.
The showdown is apparent in
every European country on our
side.
The United States, with the
highest tax rates in history, Is
initiating its currency, diminish
ing the value of the dollar and

fort by the middle Of next
month. But If Moscow decides
that an armistice, to be fol-
lowed by long peace negotia-
tions, would achieve the Krem-
Inns purposes in the Far East
better. there is a strong likeli-
hood that the Soviet and
satellite delegates will welcome
the transfer of the present
futile negotiations from Pan
munjom to the U. N. head
quarters in New York.
Most diplomatic observers in
Washington believe that the
Mexican offer will be rejected
by the Muscovites as incom-
patible with national honor.
international law or whatever
other pretext they can easily
find to sabotage humane pro-
posals. But that does not mat
ter to many diplomats, par
ticularly those from Western
Europe who are anxious to begin
peace negotiations regardless of
their result insofar as Korea is
concerned.
If the Reds are willing, the
United Nations Assembly with
the many divergent points of
view of the delegates of the
various nations can offer by
far the best stage for armistice
and peace discussions. There
can be trades and bargaining
which are not as easy when pro-
feSsional military men are in
volved.
Had it not been for Moscow's
hrm determination to have the
war in Korea continued, the
Peiping representatives who
came to New York in the fall of
1850 under the pretext Of COM
planning against the "inhumane
manner" in which American
troops were acting and against
American intervention" in
Formosa would have accepted

It then occurred to Fletcher
Knebel. the witty paragrapher
OF the Cowles newspapers, to
poll the correspondents cover
ing the Eisenhower Midwest
tour on their own presidential
preferences. Mr.. Knebel asked
his colleagues, without assign
Ing name or affiliation to the
tally, whom they would vote
for and said he would make
the results freely available.
OF the 81 reporters travelling
with Gen. Eisenhower, "a pre-
ferred Gov. Stevenson, six are
undecided and only seven said
they would vote for the general.
Most OF them work for papers
committed to the general.
This is not very nice for Gen.
Eisenhower. It will probably
not improve his already rather
strained press relations.
The general likes to be liked.
He does his best work amid ad-
miration. From, the start he
has been nervous around re-
porters. One Of his inner. circle
says frankly: Hes scared of
YOU"
Reporters naturally answer
that their business is news.
They complain they find Ike
hard to cover. They rarely see
him; he never relaxes with
them. Nor do the people around
him fill in the gaps with the
kind of easy. Informative dis
cussion that helps a reporter
keep an accurate score on devel-
opments.
This complaint is not leveled
at the nominees hard-working
press secretary, James c. Hag-

going by a continuous spending
of more than the Government
is taking in.
This Is a program not of "con-
tainment of Russia" but a pro-
gram to bleed America-and it
fits In with Soviet purposes.
For America is being bled
not only on the economic and
financial side, but it Is being
bled physically. More than
117.000 American casualties
have been reported from Korea.
Tens Of thousands of American
boys are being drafted every
month. The Korean war will
never be ended till Russia is
forced by circumstances in the
overall situation to end it.
Some military men think it will
last 10 years. Since nobody
wants to enlarge the war or
fight a preventive war;" the
present administration and Gov.
Stevenson seem to think there
Is nothing else to do but wait
for Soviet Russia to grow
righteous or to be impressed
with our military strength.
There are other things to do
many Of them-which can re-
lieve the tension and stop the
bleeding of America. The ad-
miniStration was told one thing
to do by a virtually unanimous
vote Of Congress-to begin to
help "liberate" oppressed people
through 500 million program
OF assistance to escapes and
would-be escapes, who were to
be formed into military units in
our defense armies as a means
OF holding out hope to others
behind the Iron Curtain. Presi-
dent Truman and Gov. Steven
son have repudiated the vote of
Congress because they are
afraid to wound the sensibili-
ties Of Communist Russia. But
why should Gen. Eisenhower be
timid about that?
Another alternative policy is
Evening star., 1952-09-12

to apply economic pressure.
Time and again the idea of cur
failing East-West trade and, If
need be, financing or subsidiz-
ing it with American dollars SO
as to put the squeeze on the
Communists who need certain
materials badly, has been advo-
Gated. But Gen. Eisenhower
now has fallen for the British
idea Of more and more trade
with the countries dominated
by the Soviets. Some one sold
him the concept that the way
to get influence behind the Iron
Curtain is to begin to buy goods
from the satellite countries
little realizing that, once Cont
mental Europe gets into the grip
OF the Soviet-controlled coun-
tries. the West will be more
hamstrung than ever. It can
turn into a species Of blackmail
on needed imports. The United
States Council of the Interna-
tional Chamber of Commerce
has just made that very point
in a statement by its chairman,
George A. Sloan.
When will the American Gov
ernment start making troubls
in Russia's back yard by eco
nomic means and by helping to
stimulate a desire for freedom
among the liberty loving ele-
ments? How long win "con-
tainment" as a do-nothing pol
icy be continued as American
youths are called to fight q 10
year war in Korea?
That's the real question to
which Gov. Stevenson has given
no answer and to which Gen.
Eisenhower started giving an
answer only to be bluffed out
OF it by timid advisers and un-
realistic amateurs who appar-
emily don't know that elections
are won by sticking to the
dominant issue-life or death
for the youth Of the Nation.

Little Red School and Politics
Stevensons Speeches Are Delight to Hear and Reod:
Esenhower's Style Smothered and Distorted

One Of our American insti-
tutions and traditions Is the
little red schoolhouse. Meaning
education-and public educa-
ton.
In the little red schoolhouse,
in the early days, young Amer
lea learned the Three Rs
Reading, 'Riting and 'Rithme-
tic.
There was a man who became
great among us, Abraham Lin
coin, who got very little even Of
that. but taught himself, and
developed one of the finest
English styles, simple and po-
etic. Style is more than putting
words together in proper order.
more than expressing oneself
logically and properly. Style
expresses the person, the indi-
viduality. the inner man. Abra-
ham Lincoln had a great soul
and it came out In his writing.
Nor was it held against him
that he could express himself
beautifully.
Since his day education has
spread broadly into high schools
scattered thickly as churches in
our land and into colleges and
universities Of which we have a
veritable multitude. Long ago
"higher education" ceased to be
regarded as snobbery and "book
larnin'" as a Slander.
Out Of higher education"-
and literally-we got another
great man among US who had a
style all of his own-Woodrow
Wilson, who became President
also like Abraham Lincoln.
though In the other party, and
1t was not held against him that
he could express himself beauti-
fully and forcefully.
Which brings us down to to-
day, and a rather strange devel-
opment in our current presiden-
tial campaign-almost an "un-
American" development when
you consider the store we as q
people have set by the little red
schoolhouse and all It has meant

erty, one Of the best In the busi-

help from Gen. Eisenhower that
will assist him to help them.
Still, the poll result is rather
surprising.
Most OF, the reporters with
Gen. Eisenhower are major
Washington correspondents.
They are in the upper income
levels; they generally stand in
q closer relationship to their
publishers than the average re-
porter. A press-gallery poll
which included the younger men
and women on more routine
tasks might be expected to show
q more liberal flavor than this
group.
In 1886. the Cowles newspa-

nearly all the correspondents
aboard thought President Roose-

They Want to Be the Editor
Yeorning Strikes Presidential Candidates as Well
As Presidents, and Stevenson Shows Talent

NEW YORK. Sept. 12.-Most
politicians think they could run
the newspapers better than their
owners: all Presidents and presI-
dental candidates, soon or late,
betray a suppressed desire to be
q managing editor.
Gov. Stevenson Is different
only in that he shows real talent
for the trade. He is. in fact,
part owner Of a family news
paper-the Bloomington (nl:o
Paragraph, which supported
him for Governor but is stub
1bornly Republican nationally
and he once worked for it. It
is increasingly apparent that
Gov. Stevenson would put out an
interesting newspaper.
His latest achievement is a
successful needing of the press
itself which produced an extra
dividend in the form of personal
embarrassment for Gov. Steven
sons rival, Gen. Eisenhower.
It began in Portland, Ore,
when the Democratic nominee
urbanely chided the "one-party
press" which is so solicitous of
the two-party political system.
In an arresting quip, Gov. Stew
enson contended that most edi-
tors felt about Democrats like
dogs do about cats; when they
saw one they had an irresistible
impulse to chase him up an
alley.
The free American press as
usual deemed it its duty to ad-
vertise the Stevenson remarks
and reply to them. The net
was plenty Of expensive white
paper devoted to Gov. Steven
son.
Evening star., 1952-09-12

This is the issue that Republi-
cans are making. covertly and
openly, against the Democratic
candidate for President. Adlai
E. Stevenson, because he can
write well and speak well, and
sprinkles his writing and
speeches with wit and humor so
that they are a delight to read
and hear. rather than q chore
as are so many political speeches,
especially in a presidential cam
paign.
Gov. Stevenson has style, even
as did Abraham Lincoln and
Woodrow Wilson. In truth, the
series Of speeches he has de-
livered already in the campaign
make up as fine a discussion Of
current problems from his and
his party's viewpoint as any
presidential campaign has pro-
duced. They are clear. forceful,
and explicit. We may expect
the fine quality to continue and
so make. in the end, a real con-
tribution to American political
literature.
The Illinois Governor neither
talks down to our people nor up
to them. He talks directly to
them. He gives them credit for
> intelligence and thereby pays q
tribute to the tradition Of the
little red schoolhouse and all
that the development of that
concept has meant to the United
States.
There is. 1t is true, an issue
here between the candidates for
President, If difference and con-
trast make an issue; but it is an
issue which 1t would seem that
Republicans would choose not to
stress. For the contrast goes to
matter as well as manner. Gov.
Stevenson is being specific on
every issue as he takes it up.
