Tornado Strikes
Continued from Page One)

The historic church is decorat-
ed on the inside with costly
painting and woodwork and the
entire damage cannot be estimat-
ed at this time.
An entirely new side of the
roof is being built this week by
A. G. Schoeppner contractors.
The storm damage is covered by
insurance.
Fortunately UnOccupied
The recently purchased cot
tage Of Mr.. and Mrs. Karl Stritz
in Florence Addition had just
received a new application OF
plaster throughout the interior
A tree at the front Of the house
was broken at the base and fell
across the front porch and part
of the west side of the house.
The impact sent the new plaster
crashing from the walls and cell
ings
The couple were at home of her
parents, Mr., and Mrs. II. o.
Buckley in Caldwell and planned
to move to their home in the near
future.
Belle Valley Mt. Ephraim
Reports from the Belle Valley
community, only four miles from
Caldwell, say the storm was of
little significance there. The Mt,
Ephraim community suffered
little damage from the severe
electrical storm, but high winds
we're reported.
Welding Shop DismantIed
A total loss was incurred at the
Welding shop owned by Everett
Archer on North street, near the
old Caldwell reservoir, when the
tornado completely demolished
the 28 X 40 concrete block build
ing,
The roof was picked up by the
sixty mile wind, carried over the
top Of two automobiles standing
near the building and deposited
in the front lawn of the Archer
home.
The concrete blocks were
blown completely from their
foundation and only a single
corner was left.
There were two Beagle hounds
in the building at the time and
they scampered uninjured from
the falling building, ran to an
adjacent field and scared up a
rabbit.
The Archer building was COW
cred by insurance which was
held by the Grange.
Tree on House
Mrs. Pearl McCauley had a
narrow escape from being injur-
ed when a tree fell completely
across the top of her house on
Cumberland street. 1t smashed
through the roof of the second
story, where Mrs. McCauley was
busy trying to close all the win

West E Enters Geneva PurIeys
With Long Face and Cold Feet
Case on Southeast Asiu Goes to Pieces;
U. S: Drops Brave ToIk About Intervention

Vice President Nixon few days
later: Rather than see the Com
munists take over Indo- China,
the United States must face up
to the possibility of entering the
fight. Only the United States,
it was said, was politically strong
enough to save Asia.
People in Geneva now are
asking themselves what hap
pened since then. Today there
is scarcely any attempt being
made to conceal the fact that
Mr. Dulles effort failed. And
by no means the smallest eie-
ment in that failure was the
quick retreat of the United
States from the muscle-f1exing
position it had assumed.
What happened was that the
French government put the case
very clearly to Mr.. Dulles in the
last few days: Either the United
States must intervene actively
now in Indo-China or the French
must seek to negotiate peace.
The alternative would be not
only loss of the battle at Dien
Bien Phu but very possibly the
whole northern Red River delta
as we'll.
There is sound evidence that
Mr.. Dulles turned thumbs down
on the suggestion of American
Intervention. The American po-
sition now is that the line Of
American support will be drawn
sharply short of any action
which might be considered as an
act of war. The French were
reminded that under the Con-
stitution the President cannot
order troops into action without
approval of Congress unless an
existing treaty gives him that
right. Since no treaty at this
point covers the situation in
Indo-China. the United States
could offer the French little
more than it was already pro-
viding except sympathy.
Not Enough. Say French.
This. the French made clear,
was not enough. Mr.. Bidault is
said to have painted the darkest
picture of his own political fu-
ture in the light of an immediate
ndo-China military crisis. To
save its own life. the French
government would be forced to
take the initiative in seeking an
end of the war.
Since it is hardly in a position

Foreign Correspondent Of The Sfor

GENEVA, April 26. - A most
careful survey of the allied camp
today has failed to turn up a
single note of genuine optimism
To the most casual observer, it
is clear that the Western Powers
are heading into this Far Eastern
conference with long faces and
cold feet.
With all due allowance for
usual opening-day jitters. there
is solid reason for misgiving.
Within the last few days the
whole allied case on Southeast
ern Asia seems to have fallen to
pieces.
On the basis of best informa-
tion available here, this is the
situation on the eve of the show
down with Communist leaders
/. No agreement has been
reached between the allies on a
common approach to settlement
of the Indo-China war in the
course of talks between Secretary
of State Dulles, British Foreign
Minister Eden and French For
eign Minister Bidault.
2. The United States has
served notice that for constitu-
tional reasons it cannot inter-
vene actively in the Indo-China
war at this time. Instead of
carrying the ball. the United
States will play as small a role
as possible in discussion Of the
Indo-C China question here. Con-
sideration is being given to the
possible necessity of repudiating
whatever settlement may be
reached between the Communists
and the French government.
StepdOwn Is Seen.
II this summary is correct it
marks dramatic stepdown from
the position of the United States
just 10 days ago. when Mr.. Dulles
toured Europe talking up united
action in Southeast Asia by the
allies. At that time initiative
was strongly in the Secretary's
hands. The United States spoke
boldly Of meeting the threat in
1ndo-China and bolstering the
bargaining position of the allies
at the Geneva conference. It
seemed prepared to act boldly,
too.

exact meaning of Mr.. Dulles
words, they were dispelled by

Came From Richmond.
A supply of the vaccine came
in last night from Richmond,
and was brought to the school
in Mclean by DR.. Harold Ken
nedy of the county health de-
partment.
In all. ia pupils had received
the shots when the work was
completed at Franklin Sherman
shortly before IL am.
Although there were a few
whimpers before the injections,
most of the youngsters faced the
needle bravely and all were smil-
ing as soon as it was over.
"It's just tickles" doesn't
hurt much" the children re-
assured their friends waiting in
front of a screen that shielded
the inoculating work.
And. just look what you get

another. holding up a lollypop
which all were given as a bonus.

BY nightfall, 140 Fairfax
pupils. all second graders, will
be enrolled among the half a
million children who are taking
part in the tests throughout the
Nation. BY weeks end, the
number inoculated in Fairfax
will be 2.400.
The first injections of the light

tivated polio virus we're being
given to 80 pupils from Franklin

there were students from private
schools nearby, Felicity. Lang

All had their parents consent.
The vaccine was administered
by DR.. Richard j. Mulvaney.
Aiding him were Miss Lillian
Peyton, chief county nurse, and
Mrs. Doris Purcell, health de-
partment staff nurse.
To Have Blood Samples.
About five Of those vaccinated
today will have blood samples
taken. These will be compared
with later blood samples to learn
if the vaccine was successful in
building antibodies against polio.
This was the first in a series
