These warnings, given world

many means that the American
command will be equipped with
weapons designed for placing
atomic bombs several hundred

Dispatch Of the guided missile
squadrons to Europe assures a

explosives in these ways:

Several types are equipped to

happened. On the contrary. the
fear that the conference itself
might be jeopardized has pro-
voked lively criticism Of the
Western stand.
There is a tendency for each
to pass the blame on to the other.
British newspapers have roundly
denounced the inflexibility of the
allied negotiators at Berlin-a
quality which is associated in
the British mind with the State

outcry against a narrow and

questions Of prestige which is
echoed by editorial comment

Rhee Sets DeadIine
In April for Peaceful
Unification Of Korea
BY the As.oela..d Pres.

SEOUL. Jan. 16.-President
Syngman Rhee today set an
April deadline for the peaceful
unification Of Korea and warned:
I'VE win not sit back and wait
until we are sold out"
An official government spokes-
man later issued q statement
modifying the aging Presidents
warning.
Mr.. Rhee told a news confer
ence that~1sO days after the
start of preliminary Korean
peace talks last October 26 South
Korea will be free to take our
own action-good. bad or indif-
ferent."
This would make the deadline
April %.
Mr.. Rhee reiterated the 180-
day warning three times during
the news conference. Six hours
later, however, DR.. Karl Hong
Ki, official government spokeS-
man. said the president did
not set a definite deadline Of
April IS for Korean unifica-
tion.
U. N. Not Worried.
Associated Press Toyko Bu-
reau Chief Robert Eunson said
Mr.. Rhee's statement apparently
does not coincide with what he
has told the U. N. Command.
The feeling at u. N. head
quarters is that Mr.. Rhee will
not break the armistice. Mr..
Eunson said. The ROK Army.
while a powerful fighting force.
would run out of ammunition
in about six days If deprived of
u. N. support.
Mr.. Rhee said that even If a
peace conference convenes II
do not expect any great achieve
ment."
Asked about the possibility
that no conference win be held.
the ROK president replied: II
think that would automatically
relieve my government of the
obligation or waiting"
Deadlines Set Before.
Twice previously Mr.. Rhee has
set headlines for the peaceful uni
fication Of his country. And.
while he made no threats Sat-
urday, in the past he has threat
ened to order his 18 American
equipped divisions into Commu-
nist-held North Korea.
DR.. Karl's statement issued
later said:
What President Rhee was
trying to point out is that we
can not wait forever to free the
suffering people of the north
from Communist tyrannyA In
doing so, he posed a hypothet-
ical case in which three months
would be considered a reason
able time for the preliminary
talks and another three months,
as provided by the armistice
agreement, for the political
(peace) conference itself"
Actually" DR.. Karl went on,
: president Rhee specifically re-
fused to set any definite date.
The point that the president was
trying to make is that, once it
becomes entirely clear that
peaceful efforts are a failure.
we must take action-with the
help Of our allies. we hope
to bring about unif1catson by

Canada Seen Willing
To Join Commission,
But Not Enforce Truce
By Gerald Worins
spssieI Correspondent Of The stor


OTTAWA. July 22.-Canada
is believed willing to accept re-
sponsibility as a member of the
Indo- China Armistice Commits
sion, but wants no part in guar
anteeing or enforcing an armi-
stice.
The governments general at
titude toward the invitation Is
reliably reported to be that while
Canada has only minor direct
interest in that part of the world,
it recognizes its obligation to the
world to do its full share in
promoting and maintaining
world peace.
Cabinet Meets.
The Canadian Cabinet met to-
day to give immediate and
sympathetic consideration" to
the request Of the Geneva Con-
ference that Canada serve on
the commission.
Officials here believe the COM
missions function should be
merely to investigate and report
on alleged breaches of the cease
fire agreement by either side,
and that the commission itself
should maintain a neutral
position.
1t would be a heavy RESPONSE
bility for this country of is
million people to represent the
Western world on the commits
sion. with Poland speaking for
the Communist bloc and India
representing the neutral Asians."
Canada has had some previous
experience in such military
diplomatic assignments. This
country shared responsibility
with 10 others in supervising the
KaShmir truce. 1t supplied So
observers for that task. But
with only three countries partici-
pating in the present proposed
commission. Canada's contribu-
ton could be several hundred
military. diplomatic and other
experts.
Possible Reason for Move.
There was speculation here
that one reason Canada was
asked to serve on the commits
sion may be that its members
could not appropriately partici-
pate at the same time in O
Southeast Asia defense pact OBJ
viouSly aimed against Commu-
mist expansion in that area.
During the. recent session of
Parliament. Foreign Minister
Pearson said this country did not
have the manpower necessary to
assume additional military COM
mitments In Asia. Thus the neu-
tralizing Of Canada with respect
to Indo- China would not weaken
the military strength of any coll
lective security organization
which may be formed to prevent
further aggression in Southeast
Asia.
The official invitation to join
the commission was received last
night. It bore the signatures Of
the conference co-chairmen,
British Foreign Secretary Eden
and Russian Foreign Minister
Molotov.
Full Details Awaited.
Officials said that pending re-
ceipt Of full details of what might
be expected of Canada as MEM

it was doubtful If this country
could give a firm answer to the
invitation.

warning of the invitation during

And Became a Grease Monkey
He turned me into a grease monkey
by not telling me about bearings and
bushings and things, not that I'd have
known what he meant anyway. When
I ran a disc off the pillow, he said,
''And what do you think grease gun
is for?" thought it was thing that
always got under foot, that thing he
had always insisted, unaccountably,
must be kept on the tractor. And now
he complains I use more grease than
a combining crew, and it isn't good for
the machinery.
1t was a little different, learning
about horses. l developed an affinity
for machinery which partially lived up
to his over-confidence; but horses
were something else again. They looked
so high off the ground and had no
brakes. baked about riding as long
as I could get away with it.
After harping ON the subject for
weeks, he finally brought the horse to
the back door one evening and ordered
me to hop on and go after the milk
cows. Somehow he didn't realize that
preachers daughters and prancing
horses are little alien.
