Eisenhower Mdy
Withdrew US. 9TH
Fleet From Formosu

Indications are that Presi-
dent Eisenhower is consider-
ing withdrawal of the United
States Seventh Fleet from
Formosa and thus permit the
Chinese Nationalist troops to
make raids on the Communist
mainland.
T h e President promised
deeds, not words would prob
ably win the Korean war and
the fight against Communism
He may discuss the proposal
in his State of the Union mes
sage to Congress on Monday
or he may order its with
drawal without any formality.
Republican leaders, including
Senator Robert Taft, have
been urging such a move.
President Truman's order to
the Fleet, given in June 1850
included an order to prevent
the Nationalist from making
sea and air attacks on the
communists.

of Security

It's the little things that give us the greatest
sense of security. When the days ahead
look bleak and black, we look for the light
in the love of our family and friends. For
tune or fame can be won or lost, but the
solid virtues of home and all it embOdies
remain with us, to strengthen us in days of
trial and tribulation. A child's fear of the
dark is easily dispelled in the knowledge
that her loved ones are close by. Mans
inner strength comes from the faith he has
in his fellow man.

 Ray Mathews, APW inspector announced that Bourne Associat- es who drew the original plans for the city water system, have retaned Richard Demming, and retained Richard Demming, and that he has started work revising sary prior to the time construction will resume this spring. Definite policies will be necessary, he pointed out, to establish all con templated changes so new plans can be drawn immediately.
 Several recommended changes, from the water committee, were accepted by the council and will be included in the new plans. Other recommendations will be made as soon as possible, they an nounced. Among recommenda- tions were the various sizes for service connections, set up accord ing to the Territorial plumbing code, as follows: one family home, 3/4 inch connections; two to three families, one inch; three to four one and one quarter inch, (apart- ment of this size would require two inch); five to six family house, one and one half inch, Apartment, three inch); six to eight, one and one half and three.

HOSPITAL WING READY TO OCCUPY

Work on the new wing being
 added to the Valley Hospital was very near completion today and it is hoped that it can be put in use this week end, hospital board
 members announced.
 The six-to eight-bed ward was made possible through the volun- tary efforts of a number of peo-
 ple. Labor, materials and hard
 work were. all donated to the project, evidencing a prime ex- ample of community spirit. More than 30 men devoted time to the construction and many business houses contributed materials and work supervision.
 The problem of additional bed space in the hospital was brought to a head at a meeting of the hospital board on February 6. Following a hastily called meet ing the following day, members of the board, contractors, car penters and business men agreed to pitch in and get a wing built for the hospital.
 On Wednesday morning, Feb ruary II a small group assembled at the hospital and started con- struction. By noon timbers which were to support the wing until permanent piers can be set in the spring, were in place and the floor joists set. From that time on, an ever-changing group of volunteers contributed labor and the progress on the building was rapid. ,...t
 In addition to the ward, the 16x32 wing will include two bath rooms, one equipped with tub, the other a shower. Remodeling of the old bathroom produced the connecting door and will provide linen storage space. Four new radiators provide an abundance of heat. Painted a relaxing shade of peach, the room is trimmed with white woodwork and blue inlaid linoleum.
 The following list of men gave their time to the project, the board announced. They added they hoped no one had been omit ted. Karl Nylund, Jack Land, Leo Lucas, Al Withey, Emil Cans chow, Roscoe Taylor, Ed Smith, Ferber Bailey, Paul Martin, Rich ard Andrews. Chet Sandvick, Sam Johnson, C. I. Branton, H. A.
