OAR in Finale Receives
White House MESSAGE

Senate Democratic Leader
Lyndon B. johnson, who shared
the program last night with Re-
publican Leader William F.
Knowland. warned against plac-
ing too much reliance on atomic
weapons.
While the atom dominates our
preparedness program. it is pos
sible to foresee a situation in
which we could go to war with
out unleashing the atomic power
that is at our command. he said.
Atomic weapons cannot be
used to defend troops fighting
at close quarters, Senator john
son pointed out. nor can they
be used effectively against an
enemy whose methods of organl-
zation are primitive and who de-
pends little upon massed centers
of supply.
World Destruction Possible
There is also the frightening
prospect" that atomic weapons
will become capable of world
wide destruction-"so SO powerful
that they cannot be used under
any circumstances" he said,
Senator Knowland, discussing
"The Communist Challenge in
the Far East" stressed the psy-
Geological, as well as the mill
tary, value of defending the
Quemoy and Matsu Islands off
the coast Of China.
They are as important to the
morale of Free China as West
Berlin is to Free Germany, he
maintained.
The hope of the free world
depends on how we deal with
communism, he said. Our policy
should be to achieve peace with
honor" he declared.
This is far different from a
policy of peace at any price" +"
he added.
The Republican leader also re-
iterated his opposition to ad-
mission of Communist China to
the United Nations and to any
form of world government.

III. NotesAs
Is Poles Fate
BY the Associated Press

The United States prodded
Russia and Poland yesterday to
say what ever happened to 16
Polish underground leaders ar
rested 10years ago after fighting
the &erman Nazis.
The State Department made
public the texts of notes sent to
Moscow and Warsaw saying that:
Despite continued interest In
the fate of these Polish leaders,
nothing is known of the where
abouts of several of them and
there is even some doubt as to
how many are still alive"
Actually, officials said, there
have been reports on the where
aboutS Of two-one who came to
this country and another to Eng
land-and information that five
others are dead.
Noting that the 16 were taken
to Russia in 1945, tried and given
prison sentences ranging up to
10 years. the State Department
said "it is assumed that none of
the Is originally arrested are now
held in Soviet jails."
The charges against all 16 are
understood to be that they had
exhibited anti-Communist ten
denotes hostile to the Red state.
The notes commented that the
Is underground leaders were ar
rested at time when the western
powers were pressing for action
to carry out the Yalta agreement
provision for inclusion of resist
ance leaders in the Polish gov
ernment.
The Communists never made
good on that pledge, nor on one
calling for free elections through
out Poland.
THE United States Govern
ment now wishes to raise this
matter again." the notes said.

AS the week-long convention
drew to a close, the Oar adopted
(, q number of final resolutions.
One urged Congress to take
immediate action to lay the
foundation to validate the claims
of the United States in an Ant
arctica.
Rightful Claims
American citizens, the resolu-
ton said. have discovered more
of the South Polar continent
then all other nations combined
and have done nothing to vail
date its rightful claims
The society called on Congress
to act Immediately to further ex-
plorations. produce maps and in
vestigate mineral resources in
Antarctica as groundwork for
validating United States claims.
Another action urged Congress
to pass a law making it illegal
to fly any international flag or
banner above or on the same
level with the Stars and Stripes
within the borders of the United
States or its possessions.
The Daughters sal dthe pres
ent law is somewhat confusing
as to the correct position of the
United States flag in relation to
the banners of the United Ma
tions, NATO and other like world
organizations"
The other resolutions expressed
appreciation to those who helped

The convention closed after

EyROM SWEDEN, the last
Il stop ON our astronomical
world tour tStar Pictorial,
August IA, our magic carpet
whisks us back across the
continent to Italy, renowned
for its ancient Roman ruins,
its late dinners, and its sunny
Mediterranean shores.
Although spaghetti spells
Italy to most Americans, the
truth Is, the Italian cuisine
abounds in rich variety. Every
one Of the provinces, many of
the regions within q province,
and each Of the great cities
has a dialect In food as well
as language. Tourists often
express surprise that the
apastas" can play second
fiddle to seafood, vegetables
and salads at many meals.
For our Italian recipe we've
selected this stuffed tomato
dish. Filled with a combina-
ton Of spicy salami, anchovies,
and capers, the tomatoes are
busted with cornfiakes to give
them q luscious brown crunchy
topping.
It's q curious thing about
tomatoes. Although they're
American In origin, they had
to go abroad to make good.
The early Colonists thought
they were poisonous, and grew
them only as ornamental gar
den plants. It's just been
within the last hundred years
that we've used them as food.
The Italians grew the plants
about 1850 and, according to
authorities, we're the first
Europeans to eat them.
Another vegetable that takes
well to stufilng Is the egg
plant, and we're going to the
tabled land Of Persia, known
today as Iran, for our recipe.
Eggplant, one Of the great
vegetables Of the world, is
used extensively in the East
but, for some reason, has
never enjoyed great popularity

Of our methods of preparing
