all again was unthinkable, and
besides, through the dun wool OF
Miss Buttons everyday character
runs a bright and daring thread
which will, if nothing else, draw
a bow at a venture, or post a
parcel at one also.
- y
Miss Button picked up the first
packet. It was long and narrow
and boxed. It could be either
the boomerang she had bought
for her nephew Timothy, or the
dolphin bathbrush she had got
for cousin Sophie. The only thing
Miss Button knows about BOOM
erangs is that they are liable to
return to the thrower. So she de-
cided to hope that it was the bath
brush, and sent it to cousin So
phie, confident that if it were
the boomerang it would find its
own way back.
She considered another pair of
parcels of similar size and tex
ture. One, she felt sure, were the
gloves for her kind garage mech
anic who does so many jobs for
her over and above the call of
duty. The other was undoubtedly
a sumptuous nylon slip for her
mother. But which was which?
And is this flat object here a

handbag for her sister?
Truly Miss Button cannot tell,
but she has, as always, done the
best she can with situation, and
is now waiting, with even more
anticipation, for December Is. -

New Devices End Need to Heat Aircraft Engines to Start Them In Cold Weather

ATLANTIC CITY, NJ., tR - Two engineers today described new devices designed to end the need for heating aircraft engines before trying to start them in sub zero arctic weather
 "The herculean effort formerly required for cold temperature en- zine starts can now be eliminated, F. E. Carroll of Dayton, Ohio, told the Society of Automotive Engin- eers.
 Carroll, chief engineer for Uni ted Aircraft Products, Inc, de- scribed a valve that prevents seepage of oil from the supply tank into the line leading to the engine. Previously oil has frozen in the narrow line and formed a plug cutting off the engine supply.
 Another engineer, Everett Row land, of the Wright Field Air De- velopment Center, told of com panion Improvements ''hot fuel priming system" that warns up enough gasoline to get the engines started.
 ''The hot fuel priming system is simple, compact and light weight" Rowland said. Tt con- sists of a tank enclosing an cleo trical heater, an electrical control box, and the necessary wiring and fuel lines to connect into the prim- ing system
 As with the oil pipe, the old priming system required as much as four hours of preheat before the engine could be started in severely cold weather.
 But the hot fuel priming Sys- tenn makes it possible to fire the engines in one and a half to two and a half minutes at TO degrees below zero, Rowland said.

South Koreans Demonstrate
 Against Truce

SEOUL, R - South Koreans chanted, marched and wept thru their fourth straight day of anti truce demonstrations today as al lied and Red staff officers worked in secret on the last details of an armistice that appears almost a certainty.
 The stubborn South Korean na- tion-and it's unbending president, Syngman Rhee-gave no outward sign of changing the violent op- position to a ceasefire that would leave the battered peninsula di- vided politically.
 However, a truce appears only a matter of days away-the time it takes the staff officers to fin ish the final document in morning and afternoon sessions at Pan munjom.
 The LIN. Command apparently is proceeding undaunted with it's armistice plans in the belief that South Korea won't make good it's threats to reject the truce and fight the Reds alone.
 Seoul school girls paraded in several demonstrations, chanting, Give us unification" and March north!"
 In front Of the American em- bassy in Pusan, a sitdown and hunger strike by about 300 crip- pied and wounded South Korean veterans continued.

Maniac Seized for
 Writing Death Threats To Three US. Presidents

NEW YORK, R- A man de- scribed by the Secret Service as a maniac has been seized for al- legedly writing death threats to Presidents Eisenhower, Truman and Roosevelt.
 The suspect, who gave his iden- tity as Albert J. Drevney, 40, was arrested Wednesday in nearby New Rochelle, NY, where he was reporting for work on a new job.
 Object of a nationwide hunt, Drevney was described as a "ho- mocidal maniac" by Secret Ser vice Chief U. E. Baughman,
 From his office in Washington, Baughman said Drevney mailed a death threat to Eisenhower from Lancaster, Penna., sometime in March.
 The Secret Service head said Drevney was arrested in 1941 in San Francisco for writing threat ening letters to President Roose- welt. Drevney also threatened the life of President Truman, Baugh- man said.
 Drevney further was described as having been in half a dozen mental institutions during the past 12 years.
 Drevney was booked on charges of conspiracy and violating fed eral postal laws.

Pan American To Ask CAB For Permission To Fly To Anchorage

SEATTLE, LR - Pan American World Airways will ask the Civil Aeronautics Board to designate Anchorage as a co-terminal with Fairbanks on the company's Al aska routes when the Board hears the forthcoming "States-Alaska" case, John w. White, regional PAA director, said here today.
 White said, 'The Civil Aero nautics Board has established new routes during the past three years to compete with Pan American. But the carriers so designated are permitted to serve Anchorage, the territory's largest city and largest source of traffic. Pan Am is not now, and never has been, permit ted to offer services to Anchorage. We feel strongly that Alaska as a whole stands to benefit if such air carriers as may be authorized by CAB to compete with each other are permitted to compete on an equal basis to the territory's s principal population centers."
 Pacific Northern Airlines re- gently started Seattle-Juneau ser vice-a route on which Pan Am erican previously had the only permit.

 Eisenhower declared that gov ernment must not allow it's poli- cies to be caught in the fatal cross fire of a Congress and an eXecu- tive warning upon one another"
 He added: ''Such a condition is not going to prevail if it is within the power of this administration to prevent it. For our very form

BERLIN, R - East German Communists began putting their retreat from Sovietization into action today and East Zone Pre- mier Otto Grotewohl declared his government was bitterly and ser iously determined" to help bring about the unification of Germany now.

 Although Eisenhower said he was tired when he arrived here after two speeches Thursday, he fished for trout for two hours be- fore dinner. He caught five, kept two of the larger ones and snag- ged his finger slightly on a fish hook.
