Remon Enjoys Talks
With Top Officials;
Sees Ball Game on N

Col. Jose Antonio Remon,
President of Panama, said today
that the cordial and sympathetic
reception accorded him by this
Government proves that the
United States does not measure
its friendship by the size of
other nations.
President Remon said he en-
joyed very pleasant" conversa-
tionS with President Eisenhower,
Secretary of State Dulles and
other officials since his arrival
Monday.
He told newsmen at press
conference in Blair House that
the negotiations between his
country and the United States
over rental payments for use of
the Panama Canal are proceed
ing satisfactorily and he indi-
Gated that he and President
Eisenhower would issue a joint
statement on the subject.
But the Panama leader said he
was not here to obtain millions
OF dollars in grants from the
United States. One of the prin-
clpal purposes of his visit, he
said, is to encourage business
men to invest capital in Panama.
He declared his country offers
numerous advantages, not the
least of which is big tax ex-
emption in the Free Zone. He
said eight United States COM
panieS are already operating
there.
President Remon said the
United States can be sure that it
will have full access to Panama
nian defense bases in the event
Of any war emergency. He
pointed out that his country
would be as concerned as this
one if the isthmus should come
under attack.
An avid baseball fan, Col. Re-
mon planned to watch today'S
World Series game on a televi-
sion set at Blair House.
The President and Mrs. Re-
mon will give a dinner this eve
ming at the Sheraton Carlton
Hotel in honor of President and
Mrs. Eisenhower. Later the AM
basSador of Panama and Mrs.
Huertematte will give a recep-
ton for the Remons at the Pan
American Union. The visitors
will conclude their state visit
tomorrow. leaving by plane at 8
am. for an unofficial visit to

Article by Walden
BIames Laxity for
Former Dope Rings

Dope rings f1ourished here be-
cause District and Federal police
were lax in enforcing the law,
former Assistant United States
Attorney Thomas A. Walden,
jr.. charges in an article pub
lished today in the Saturday
Evening Post.
Narcotics figures are difficult
to assess. yet there is general
agreement among those init
mately acquainted with the dope
problem that Washington,
per capita, is probably the Ma
tion's worst dope city," Mr.. Wad-
den writes.
Describes Probe.
The article, titled 1--WE Put the
Heat on Washington Dope Ped
dlers," describes the grand jury
probe of the Randolph (Catfish)
Turner dope syndicate.
It also presents another view
of the cool relationship between
the United States attorneys Of
flee and the Federal Bureau of
Narcotics during the investiga-
ton. This led to a grand jury
report criticizing the bureau for
lax law enforcement.
Mr.. Wadden's article criticizes
the bureau for its method of in
vestigating narcotics thefts from
it's own narcotics storage rooms
in the Treasury Annex.
Despite the unfortunate out
come of the Treasury theft case,
the war against dope peddlers in
the District of Columbia has paid
off," Mr.. Walden declares.
Tribute to Police.
"Under the leadership of Chief
Robert V. Murray, the Metropol-
itan Police Department is doing
a good job. Its narcotics squad,
led by a brilliant, tough cap
tain, John Layton, has been
striking often and decisively
with raids that-temporarily, at
least-have sent the wholesalers
scurrying for cover. AS noted
in the grand jury report. even
the Federal Bureau of Narcotics
has been mending it's ways" he
adds.
The article makes no mention
of the revelations before the
Senate District Crime Commit
tee, which touched off the in
quiry into the dope racket.

Series Pot to Set Record;
1908 Players Honored
By Froncis Stonn
S,or stoff correspondent

NEW YORK, Sept. 30.-The
1853 World Series, 50th in his
tory, opened today before $4,000
viewers in Yankee Stadium and
an estimated IS million televieW-
erS from coast to coast.
The day was sunny and warm,
with the temperature in the
80s. and before this fourth
Yankee-Dodger series is over it
is likely the players will cut up
the biggest melon of all time.
This is due to increased ticket
prices.
1t was estimated that a win
ming share will be worth close to
$1,000 and a losing share ap-
proximately $4,000. The payoff
record was set in 1948. when the
victorious Cleveland Indians re-
Ceived $6,772 per share.
The series again brings to-
gether the winningest team in
history and the losingeSt. The
Yankees have prevailed in Is of
19 past Series. The Dodgers have
represented the National League
six times and never have won.
Before the start of today'S
game the crowd was asked to
stand in silent tribute to the
memory of the two men re-
sponsible for the first World
Series in 1908" They were Bar
nev Dreyfuss, owner of the Pitts
burgh Pirates. and Henry j.
Killilea. owner of the Boston
Red SOx.
Several surviving members OF
the two clubs of so years ago,
including Fred Clarke of the
Pirates and Cy Young and Bill
Dineen of the Red Sox. were in
troduced from their box seats.
Young, 86. who won more major
league games than any pitcher
in history. threw out the first
ball.
Latest odds were 7 to 5 favor
ing the Yankees to capture the
series and IL to 10 to win to-
days game, which pitted the
veteran New York righthander.
Allie Reynolds. against Brook
lyn's Carl Erskine. only 20-game
winner on either team.
The Dodgers lost in 1916 to the
Red Sox and in 1920 to the In
dians. In 1941, 1947. 1949 and
1852 they we're beaten by the
Yankees.
In their 19 series. dating back
to 1921, the Yankees have bowed
only to the Giants of that year
and of 1922. and the Cards of
1926 and 1912. They have won
their last six series.

March of Dimes
Drive Under Way

The month-long campaign to
| aise funds to fight iniantilc
paralysis was launched locally and
throughout the nation the latter
part Of last week.
: Fifty percent Of all money con
! tributed to the March Of Dimes will
be used by the Garrett county chap
ter to help pay costs Of treating
local patients, or in emergencies
! polio patients elsewhere. The other
half finances the research, pro
fessional education and epidemic
aid programs Of the organization
1t was estimated that 10000 pa
ticnts received direct financial aid
from the March Of Dimes in 1852.
OF these, over one-half were
stricken in previous years but still
needed and received help. Last yom
set an all-timc record with more
than $4,000 cases reported.
In spite of record contributions
last year the National Foundation
for Infantile Paralysis entered
1853 with unpaid bills totaling 81
million, and marks the fifth con
secutive year that the polio fight
ing organization has wound up in
the red.
Basil O'Conor, president of the
National Foundation, said it zap
pears that polio is modifying all
its forces to attack mankind. But
meantime, scientists supported by
the March of Dimes research
grants, are approaching closer to
conquest of the disease"
The attempt will be made this
year to raise more money than
ever before. OF the 100000 cases
reported in the past Is years, al
most two-thirds were stricken since
1913.
S. R. Pagcnhardt, county chair
man, said the contribution barrels
were being distributed this week.
Community committees already
have been appointed and are set
to keep an eye on the campaign as
il progresses.

One of the sad reflections of our
age is that it is Lecoming increas-
ingly difficult to get people to be-
licve what we are saying and for
us to believe what they are saying.
This past summer d young
Russian, now living in Boston,
asked his pastor to help him write
to his friends in Russia i'm such a
way that they would believe him.
"If tell the TRUTH Ivan said,
they will not believe me. If tell
them that am Italian family gave
us curtains for our bare windows,
that an Irish family gave us an
old stove from their cellar, that a
Jewish second hand merchant
trusted Us for more furniture, and
that all of us could live i'm the same
neighborhood without fighting each
other, they will not believe me-"
VANS problem is the worlds
problem. When we are all so sus-
picious Of each other, it is hard
to believe others and make them
believe us.
Still and all, God knew what he
was doing when he Handicapped the
universe and identified truth as on
the roads to perfect freedom.
Choose that way "Desire truth in
the inward parts" Speak it, write
it. Love it. Live it. On the scat
fold put falsehood, on the throne
put truth, the word that can
change your life.
