Rhee Thinks us.
Will Reopen War
If No Unification

NEW YORK, Up The New York
Times quoted Korean President
Syngman Rhee Thursday as say
ing it was Uncomfortable" that
the United States would fail to
reopen the Korean War if the
Communists refused to agree to
the unification of his country.
Rhee, the story said, warned
the United States not to attempt
to persuade him to make conces-
sions to Communists as he said
the United States had forced
Chang Kai-Shek to do in China
after World War H."
In a dispatch from Seoul, James
Reston of the Times reported on
an interview with Rhee at his
camouflaged villa on a hillside
above the South Korean capital.
Reston quoted Rhee as saying
he was pleased that Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles was
coming to Seoul next week be-
cause Rhee chad some things to
say to him"-not about technical
tiles but about the principle of
fighting the Communists or dy-
ing"
Rhee was described as fierce in
his condemnation Of those who
were foolish enough to believe"
there was any way to settle the
Korean question by peaceful
means"

National Administrations Economic
Policies May Aid Spread OF Communism

Cence.
People well fed, we'll housed and well
Clothed are usually contented people, They
are no easy marks for the Commies Nor do
the Communist agitators waste any time try
ing to organize them because they (the Com
munlsts) know that it is mainly the OPP
pressed people irrespective of race who pro-
vide the most fertile minds for their guile.
Oppression is oppression be it racial or
economic-and the reaction is the same re-
CARELESS to the color of mans skin or his
religious or political beliefs
And that reaction is never favorable to the
oppressor.
Yet, some of our short-sighfed leaders
IN the National Administration are continu-
ing their about struggle to turn the clock
back for Americans. Even few who are
no longer in the political spotlight are COM
ing up with proposals pointing to reversal
of the march of progress. The most amaz-
ing heard to date being that of Ex-Presi-
dent Hoover who would have the Govern
ment turn over the private ownership some
OF Americas finest Hydro-Electric Plants
that furnish electric power to millions of
American homes and factories at cost
within reach of the poorest families in rural
America, feat never accomplished by pri-
vate enterprise.
SO as things appear to be shaping UP
nowaday, our National administration seems
to be unwittingly aiding Russia in it's ever
increasing quest for fertile soil in which to
sow seeds of destruction. Not only is the
present administration making drastic cuts
in appropriations for continuing adequately,
long-proyed worthwhile Governmental Agen
cles, but through it's action is constantly

QO Chosen By Scottsyille
Rubber Workers

Scottsville, Va.-Employees of the United
States Rubber Company Plant in this south
ern Albemarle County Community, voted
1872 to &C on April "a for the CLIO Textile
Workers Union as their representative
Heretofore, at each of the four elections
held since the plants establishment in 1914,
the Clio had competed with the AFL to rep
resent these workers. Three times the work
ers voted mo union" and the fourth time
they voted for the ALL which represented
them from 1916 to 194S when it was voted
out.
According to a spokesman for the en-
ployees, instead of CLIO seeking to repre-
sent them at this time, they sought the aid
of the CLIO.
The only other CLIO international union
that has been chosen to represent employ
ees in Albemarle County was the United
Public Workers of America Union, later re-
named Government, Civic Organizing Com
mittee-CIO, which represented certain en-
ployees of the University of Virginia Hos
pital, also dating from 1914
Latest reports have it that the union will

Practlcaily every press and radio report
carries news OF the National Administra-
tons drastic economy drive.
Latest reports have it that the Eisen-
hover Administration has not only greatly
reduced Federal aid to government hous-
ing, but has chopped off $1,962, 900 from
the requested $685., 100 for salaries and
incidental expenses estimated as being me-
cessary to operate the office of the Admin
strator of the Housing and Finance Agency
In the same operation, the House Approp-
riatlons Committee whacked $17,45O from
the recommendations for the Racial Rela-
tions Service.
Thus, we Tally hear of action being
taken to greatly nullify many excellent fea-
lures OF program so wisely started under
the late FDR and kept not only intact. but

man Administration.
1t was back in the dark days of the late
192O's and the early 1905 that Commu-
nism was being embraced by thousands of
Americans, especially those who were
among the more economically depressed It
was during this period Gin the 193O's) that
the late President Roosevelt, through his
far-slghtedness, started a program designed
to thwart the Communist in their crafty
scheme to undermine our Democratic form
OF Government, by proving to the world that
America was as wise as she was financially
powerful. Thus, through his intelligent pro-
gram, for the first time in the Nations his

their labor. AS result, the swift spread of
Communism was slowed down to insignifi-

Simple Meals Save
homernakers Time

HomemakerS can save time
during the busy holiday season
by planning simple meals says
Mary Morgan, nutrition special
ist at Ohio State University. She
says stews, casseroles, puddings,
and raw fruits and vegetables
are easy-to-prepare foods that
are high in nutritive value.
A serve-yourself lunch is a
real timesaver. Each person can
make his own sandwiches to be
eaten with a hand fruit such as
apples or oranges.
i Miss Morgan suggests a hearty
breakfast including fruit, cereal,
a breadstuff, and protein foods
like milk, eggs and bacon or
ham as another timesaver. After
a large breakfast and lunch,
dinner can be kept to a minimum
with a stew or casserole as the
main dish.
If the homemaker uses attrac-
tive napkins or greenery on the
table, and surprises" the family
with a favorite once in a while,
Miss Morgan says they will
never realize their meals aren't
as elaborate as usual.

Canada may be. il does not nearly
begin TO compensate for our deficit
on current account with the United
States. This means that Canada's
ability to balance her current trad
ing account with the u. s. is de.
pendent on the ability of other coHn-
tries to earn American dollars"
Free enterprise does not mean
freedom from competition but free
dom to enter into competition, Mr..
Gordon maintained. Freedom to buy
and sell in any market at the best
price determined by natural eco
nomic forces operating in a frame
work OF fair opportunity insures
that only the most efficient pro-
ducers survive to meet consumer
demands, he said Protectionist
policies run counter to the we'll
being of any nation because they
discourage imports, deny consum-
ers the benefits of lower prices.
and diminish earnings from exports.
Though the problem OF freer
world trade is tied to questions re-
lating to convertibility OF curren-
cies. tariff policies, import quotas
and prohibitions, Mr.. Gordon was
optimistic that the problems would
be solved. However, he warned
that the United States in fulfilling
her obvious destiny must accept
the full economic and politicai i'm
plications OF il. FMS
