NIGHT: When l was a boy used
to hear the old folks talking about
it, and since l been grown-up
read it for myself where the Bible
says something like this: Ye shall
know the truth, and the truth shall
make you free. Since l used to
hear the old folks talk about it,
and since / learned to read it for
myself, I've been wondering how
that fitted-in with the Bible story
about the Devil taking Christ up
on the mountain top where he could
see all the world, where he told
Christ to follow him, and he would
give him all the world, knowing
all the time that the world he was
promising to give away didn't be-

trials and. tribualtions, when one
Brother the Blood ups and says
what's mostly wrong wild US we
don't want to hear the truths 'spe-
cially bout the tribe, and gifts mad

said befo he got thru talking Aine
Haggar's Chillun nowday don't lack

whose gonna give 'em the world
and everything in it, only dat theys
in the same shape of the fellow
who took Christ up on the noun

fish and drinking my beer while
my thoughts kept going back to
what / used to hear the old folks
say and what | read in the Bible
for myself, and as the Old Tyne
preachers used to keep reminding

is RIGHT and Aine Haggar's
Chilluns trials and tribulations will
keep hanging on long as they's be-
ing took up on the mountain top,
and keeps on Citing mad wild de

JUNEAU, R-More major leg islative proposals continue to ap- pear in the Alaska legislature, with two different million-dollar appropriation bills among them
 Two other important bills were also introduced in the House of Representatives yesterday-o e setting up a military code for the territory and the other providing for special legislative districts, something which was turned down by the 1853 session.
 The million dollar bills, in turn, would finance territorial roads and the development and i'm provement of boat harbor and harbor facilities.
 It now appears that record number of bills will be introduced in the House. The number reached 45 yesterday on the ninth day of the session, compared with ap- pearance of the 45th bill on the 18th day two years ago, when an all-time mark was set.
 These are the four different major measures and what their sponsors say they are and will do:

By FRED HAMPSON

TAIPEH, Formosa, R-Chiang Kai-Shek'S warplanes hurled new strikes at Communist Yikiang- shan early today and Nationalist refugees told how Red bombers in turn had brought civil activi- ties on the nearby Tachens to a virtual standstill.
 "The bombs fall all over the island" one refugee from the Ta- chens said. ''There's no place to get away from them. They were falling even when we left"
 A US. built transport today landed 538 civilians, many of them children at the northern Formosan port of Keelung. They were only trickle from the 15,- 000-man garrison and 15,OOO civ ilians sweating out the Red bomb ings on the exposed Tachen out post 200 miles north of Formosa.
 While the JUN. Security Council awaits Communist Chlna'S reac- ton to it's invitation to talk over a cease-fire, air and sea actions swirl almost continuously around the Tachens. Meanwhile, power full US. 7th Fleet forces support ed by swift Air Force Sabrejets await orders to evacuate the Ta- chenS.
 US. Ambassador Karl l.. Rank in conferred for 75 minutes with Chiang Kai-Shek today. Details were not disclosed, but the two are believed to have discussed announcements to be issued on the projected withdrawal from the Tachens.

Twisters Kill 30,
 Flatten Buildings In Southern States

MEMPHIS, R-A cluster of tornadoes ripped a vicious swath through the mid-South's tornado alley yesterday, flattening scores of buildings, including two school houses, and leaving an unofficial ly estimated 30 persons dead and 100 injured.
 The twisters, bursting from fur ious black clouds boiling up from the Southwest, roared through five small communities in Arkan- sas, Mississippi and Alabama. Heavy property damage was re- ported.
 Only in Mississippi did they kill, hitting a bloody jackpot in thinly-populated areas on the northwestern rim of the state.
 The tornado at Commerce Land ing, Miss, where 27 were report ed killed, cut a swath 200 feet wide through the 8,OOO-acre Leatherman plantation, destroy ing a row of tenant houses, a Ne gro church, school and a cotton gin.
 w. V. France said the school was whipped away before his eyes, as if a giant hand had snatched it up and tossed both wreckage and bodies into the boiling clouds.
 "AfterWard men and women came to the spot" he said. "They would find a child and come cry ing up the road with it in their arms. II doesn't seem possible anybody got out, but they say two little boys did"

President Eisenhower Says
 Declaration US. Will Defend
 FOrmosa Serves Cause of Peace
By Marvin L. Arrowsmith

WASHINGTON, R-President Eisenhower said today the cause of peace has been served by the United States making it crystal clear it does not intend to let For mosa fall to international Com muniSm.
 He told a news conference he believes this country's defend Formosa declaration, voted by Congress last week, insures against any miscalculation by the Chinese Communists about Amer ican determination.
 The President said there has been no commitment to use Am erican ground forces in defense of Formosa. But he declined to go into any details as to how this country intends to protect that main Chinese Nationalist island and the Pescadores.
 Eisenhower specifically refused to say whether the Nationalists offshore outpost islands of Que moy and Matsu would be defend ed by the United States.
 He said he was not going to provide any blueprint for the Reds.
 The news conference, filmed for possible later use on television and in theaters, covered wide range of topics. They included:
 Army Strength-The President said at this moment he sees no reason to alter plans for cut in Army strength. He made that re- mark in response to request for comment on the statement by Gen. Matthew Ridgway, Army chief of staff, that the planned cut of 140,OO0 men might jeopar dize national security ito de- gree"
 The President said RidgWay'S special interest is the Army, and it might be called a parochial in terest. He said Ridgway naturally had to express his convictions be- fore the House Armed Services Committee, but the decision to reduce Army strength has not been altered and he sees no chance at this time of it's being altered.
 Supreme Cour Eisenhower said it is unfortunate the Senate has delayed action on his nomina- ton of John Marshall Harlan to be an associate justice. The delay is too bad, the President added, but he is not going to stand up and criticize Congress because of it.
 Dixon r ates@Eisenhower said crisply in response to question he does not intend to withdraw the controversial Dixon Yates power contract as result of Dem ocratic opposition to it in Con- crracc

Enemy Attacking Alaska Would Face Tough Fight For Big Centers But
 US. Will Not Defend Remote Areas
By ELTON FAY

aska, R-An enemy attacking this northern stepping stone to the United States would face tough tussle for big military bases and cities, top US. military command CTS hold, but he couldn't draw American forces into struggles over remote areas.
 This plan of defense of Alaska's tremendous territory-it's more than twice the size of Texas-was laid out in a news conference yesterday by Lt Gen. Joseph H. Atkinson, commander-in-c chief of the Alaskan Defense Command.
 He was seconded by Maj. Gen. George R. Acheson, chief of the Alaskan Air Command, and Maj. Gen. James F. Collins, com mander of Army forces.
 People ask," Atkinson said, what we would do if an enemy landed at some place like a little spot over on the coast"
 In the first place, he said, "the enemy wouldn't be interested, and if he was we would just leave him there"
 Acheson said the military's mis- sion is mot to defend all of AL aska" but to keep big installations and important centers out of en- emy hands.
 Big Alaskan installations men toned were Elmendorf, Ladd and Eielson Air Force Base, with An chOrage and Fairbanks listed as important centers."
 Atkinson was asked if he be- lieved there was possibility of attack by Russians on the ground as well as in the air.
 II don't think there would be any big land campaign" he re- piled. q do not rule out the pos sibility of at least limited air borne operations. As a matter of fact, that is the only way he could get in except for the possibility of attempting amphibious operations in few spots"
 He expressed doubt that there would be more major defense construction in Alaska except for the possibility of fighter plane strips.
 Acheson said the approaching advent of guided missiles tends to rule out fields too far forward near Boring Strait because i've wouldn't want to lose everything in one shot"
 Beyond the Boring Strait is Siberia and Soviet bases.)
 General Collins said plans are being worked on for locating Nike anti-aircraft guided missile sites in Alaska but that no construct tion has been started.
 The Army commander expressed the belief Alaska now is garri- soned by adequate military forces and eff the situation developed we could get more in a hurry from the United States by air"
 The commanders expressed pleasure at the outcome of tests conducted in the just concluded Operation Snowbird," during which temporary runways were constructed of packed snow, that was rolled and frozen.
 Atkinson said the commanders now believe such strips can be built anywhere in the arctic dur ing the winter for use as fighter and transport bases located close to or actually within enemy ter ritOry.
 The generals felt jet fighters could use such snowportS because melting action from jet blasts would immediately freeze.
