Marshal Tells of Broken Rib,
Woman Is Held for Jury
EMMY LOU

The trials of a United States
marshal and the dangers Of serv-
Ing an eviction notice were
brought to light yesterday in
United States Commissioners
Court.
Testifying on this subject was
United States Deputy Marshal
Hubert T. Taylor, who told of
serving an eviction notice and
receiving a broken rib.
He told United States Commits
sioner Cyril S. Lawrence:
On August Z he attempted to
serve an eviction notice on a
man in the 5000 block of Fourth
street NE. Instead of the man,
he found Miss Lavina Neville,
80, colored, sitting on a bed IN
Apartment 3 at the Fourth street
address.
He told the woman, he said,
he had an eviction notice. She
answered the marshal said,
You'd better call the cops" p"
Shortly after that, according to
the marshal, the woman pulled
out the broken leg Of a chair
from beneath the bed and took a
few swings at the marshal and
two real estate men who had ac-
companied him.
Whereupon. the marshal said,
they called the police from No.

Apartment 3, and Mr.. Taylor at

Rhee Bars Coalition
With North Korea
BY the Asseeioied Press

SEOUL, Aug. 13.-Syngman
Rhee yesterday declared South
Korea will never agree to a
coalition government with Com :
munists in the North as a means
of unifying Korea.
The South Korean president
said in an interview:
Under no circumstances will
I even listen to the suggestion of
coalition with the Communists. F."
At the same time Mr.. Rhee
reiterated that South Korea will
go it alone if the impending
Korean political conference fails
within 80 days to solve the ex-
plosive problem of unif1cation.
1--WE shall do anything we can
possibly do to restore the unifica-
ton of our country" the 78-
year-old patriot said, adding: !:
"And we shall act whether
friendly nations help us or not. ="
Mr.. Rhee said he felt nothing
will be accomplished" at the
peace conference, scheduled to
begin by October 27.
"Since 1945," he said, "Ameri-
cans have tried hundred ways
to come to agreement with the
Communists. They have talked
for two years just to stop the
fighting"

He missed her right arm, how
ever. he said, which came around
in a 90-degree arc and landed on
Mr.. Taylor's seventh rib. Later.
he said, he discovered the rib
was cracked.
Police arrested Miss Neville on
charges Of disorderly conduct.
She was fined $40 and sentenced
to 20 days in jail.
Yesterday she faced charges Of
aSsaulting a Federal officer in
performance Of his duty. Com

Making Moccasins
Is Club Project

DO YOU LIKE to go barefoot?
We do, but for adults it just
doesn't seem quite proper. However,
since the Flathead county home
demonstration clubs held a work
shop on moccasin making, we all
have the delight of barefoot COM
fort, but with our feet covered as
adult feet should be. Our home
demonstration club at Hungry Horse
was very much interested in the
project and the Is members who
came to the lessons have made "a
pairs of moccasins.
The moccasins were made of elk
and deer hide, soft and pliable, easy
to work and very comfortable to
wear. When they become soiled
they can be Numbered easily with
out loss of either shape or softness.
Requiring only the leather, a punch,
two darning needles, beeswax and
linen shoe thread, the moccasins are
very simple to make. A standard
pattern is used, adjusted to the out
line of the wearer's foot. That way
the moccasins fit each individual
correctly.
think most of the aunts, uncles
and cousins of these ladies have
received a pair of moccasins for a
Christmas or birthday gift.
The infant moccasins made of soft
white leather, or even the natural
color deer skin, make very welcome
gifts for the new babies.
Methods of decorating the moe
casins were varied. Some were
beaded, others pinked or fringed.
and quite few designs were burned

things that the hospital itself might
not be able to purchase within the
limits of the budget, such as de-
corating the trays at holiday times,
extra floor and table lamps, bedside
stools and over-bed tray tables.
Many hours are spent each month
by different groups who work at
the hospital on surgical dressings,
bandages, packs and other surgical
necessities.
The Decker Club members wished
to help in this worthy cause, yet
could not promise to go to Sheridan
on schedule. We decided we could
help in the children's department
and help to keep the toy box filled.
Each child patient is given a stuffed
toy or scrap book and is allowed to
take it home with him or her This
has given the children much hap
piness.
The toys consist of different kinds
of dolls-sock, Raggedy Anne and
Andy-giraffes, dogs, cats, rabbits,
horses, elephants, and bean bags.
A Santa Claus bean bag was made
for Christmas, which was quite
popular. We make different rabbit
or Bunny" dolls for Easter.
We try to keep the cost down, as
the work is voluntary and we use
scraps of materials whenever pos
sible. The toys are stuffed with
cotton bats, and the accent details
worked with embroidery thread,
sometimes buttons are used for eyes
and wool for hair.
So far this year, we have made
100 toys and hope to make 10 or IL
month. I know can speak for
all the members that this project
has been enjoyed, and each of us
feels well repaid by the happiness
that the little tots get from our
! efforts.

on the leather with a wood burning
tool. The designs were also varieds
including the wearer's name or in
itial, flowers, stars, brands, snow
men, dancers, etc. Each design
illustrated a hobby or particular
interest of the recipient, making the
moccasins very special and de-
ightfully personal sort of gift.
Two of the ladies used calf skin
that had been tanned with the hair
on. They put the hair side ir for
the bottom piece and out for the
toe piece and the cuff. Moccasins
made in this fashion are particularly
warm and pretty.
Cost of moccasin making was
small, averaging from 81 to $3.50 a
pair, depending upon the size. The
leather cuts to a better advantage
if you are making several pairs or
have a group work together.-Mrs.

Communists in Central America
By Henry B. Lee

Reports of Communist ac-
tivity in several Central Amer
lean republics have raised
speculation over whether the
wave of Red influence in Qua
temala is spilling over its
borders.
Communist power, perhaps
domination, in Guatemala has
long been recognized. But
Communist gains in several
neighboring republics have de-
veloped as something of a sur
prise.
Police raided two Commu-
mist cells in Honduras last
month and seized quantities of
Red propaganda and petitions,
according to Ell Dia newspaper
in the capital of Tegucigalpa.
Several alleged Communists
were jailed and police began
looking for Rodolfo Lopez, edi-
tor Of Voz Obrera, a labor
organ.
Although the party is out
lawed, Communists are active
around the United Fruit Co.
properties on the north coast
near Guatemala. Red agents
from Guatemala are organiz-
ing workers of this United
StateS-owned company, a re-
cent Senate Foreign Relations
subcommittee report held.
They are also active in stu
dent groups.
Reports Discounted
A spokesman for the Hon
duras Embassy, however, dis
counted a recent newspaper
report that Communists in
Guatemala and Socialists in
Costa Rica were infiltrating
the Liberal Party in Honduras.
This party is scheduled to un-
seat the divided Nationalist
Party of President Juan Man
uel Galvez in next years
election.
The Embassy spokesman
thinks Communist activity in
his country is limited to rem
nants of the illegal Democratic
Revolutionary Party. This
party was organized in 1914 by
university students who wanted
to kick the dictators out of
Central America, then disin-
tegrated with the infiltration
of Communists and extremists.

the White House sponsored

District employees went into ef-
feet Wednesday.
Originally scheduled for Oc-
tober Is, it was delayed a
month with administration
consent. According to reports,

The main stumbling blocks
were the Fire Department and
the penal institutions. And
the final draft neatly side
stepped the issue in both cases.
In summary, the order elm
mated Immediately discrimi-
nation in most of the city de-
partments, where practically
none existed anyhow, and eX-
empted temporarily the con-
troverSial situations.
Fire Department Cose
In the case of the Fire De-
partment, the issue was dyna-
mite. Former Commissioner
F. Joseph Donohue found that
out when he tried to accom-
plish integration a couple of
years ago. He took his case
personally to the firemen at
meeting of their union, but
they wouldn't buy it. Facing
threats of designations from
the force and of intervention
OF Southern Democrats on the
House District Committee, the
Commissioners referred the
whole matter to Fire Chief
Millard Sutton for study. This
was a pigeonhole from which
it never emerged formally.
Early reports on what We'd
neSday's report would include
indicated an intent to force
the issue this time with the
f1reflghters. But the city
heads finally decided not to
risk now what they knew
would be a bitter battle-and
one they couldn't be positive
of winning. After all, the fire
fighter lobby is still strong at
the Capitol. Furthermore, the
f1remen are a highly respected

Not Mere Numbers
The threat of communism
in these Central American
countries cannot be evaluated
in terms of hume erica l
strength. It has to be evalu-
ated in terms of vulnerable
conditions that may enable a
few well-trained Communists
to seize power.
Most eXiled Communists in
Central America have gone to
Guatemala, where they can
see as we'll as learn how to
successfully infiltrate into gov
ernment. These Communists
can sneak back to their re-
spective countries and exploit
conditions highly vulnerable
to communism-political in
stability, poverty, illiteracy,
imperialism, ultra -nationalism
and both latent and active
anti-Yankee attitudes.
Recent trends in Central
America clearly indicate a
swing to the left. Whether
it will go further left than the
proposed economic and social
reforms of President Jose Fig
guereS in Costa Rica remains
to be seen. Communist agents
from Guatemala are appar-
emily trying to exploit this
trend and ultra a-nationalism in
Central America in the interest
of international communism.
