vietNarrlV VOTING
In Sc Doubtful,
Mansfield SAYS
BY EARL H. vOss


Senator Mansfield, Democrat,
Of Montana. said today he does
not expect all-viet Nam elec-
tions to be held in july. 1856. as
arranged at last years Geneva
conference.
Mr.. Mansfield is member Of
the Senate Foreign Relations
committee and has specialized in
Indo- China affairs. He empha-
sized he was expressing FER
sonal opinion.
II think that Ngo Dinh Diem
(South Wet Mans embattled
Premier) will have to make that
decision himself" he said. But
I don't think there should be
elections in Indo-C China because
South Wet Nam was not a sigma
tory to the Geneva agreement.
Premier Diem should be al
lowed time to consolidate all Of
South Wet Nam and to carry
his country along the road to in
dependence and freedom-an OPP
portunity which he has not had
until just recently"
War Possibility"
Resumption of the civil war in
Wet Nam would then be a pos
sibility," Senator Mansfield be-
lieves. But Diem will have an
army in excess Of the 100000
which we thought should be the
limit" he added. "And I think
his troops and his people will be
able to take care Of themselves" !"
"We should not intervene with
American combat troops" if the
civil war breaks out again In
Indo- China, in the Senator's
opinion. But. he added, I'VE
should otherwise give Diem
every bit of possible support"
He explained that by combat
troops he means air and naval
forces as well as ground troops.
IT would give them supplies
TO include airplanes.' he added.
"Nuclear weapons / don't know
about. If Ho had them and used
them then ! would say probably
yes"
Asked whether delay or cam
collation. of the elections in Wet
Nam would reflect on the United
States good faith, inasmuch as
this country was associated with
the Geneva armistice agreement,
Senator Mansfield answered:
"I've always felt the Geneva
conference was mistake. I've
felt we should never have gone
to Geneva-even indirectly as We
did.
U. S. Didn't Sign
while you might say that
we agreed to what the French
and the British accepted (tem-
porary partition of Wet Nam in
return for cease-flre). never
theless we were not a signatory
to that pact and don't think
that we should use any pressure
on Ngo Dinh Diem at the present
time to force him to hold elec-
tions in July of 1856.
II don't think that would be
a reflection on our good faith.
We have good legal grounds.
Furthermore. there have been
enough violations on the part
of Ho Chi Mini and the Wet
Mini to give additional grounds
to Diem's refusal to agree to-
such an election.
AS for Wet Mans future pros
poets, Senator Mansfield said:
mo one can look into the
future. But I daresay that !
II Premier Diem is given the
opportunity to put his programs
into effect and to prove to the
people of Wet Nam that he is
his own master. running his own
government entirely free of for
eign control, that in time !
he can overcome Ho Chi Mini
In the North. unless. of course,
there is active Chinese partici-
patton to keep Ho in Office"
In a special tribute to Pre-
mier Diem. Senator Mansfield
said: "The only man in all of
Indo-C China who can compare
with and perhaps better Ho Chi
Mini is Diem and that's been

MORE SLAIN WITH
AUTOS THAN BY
ALL u. S. WARS

Raleigh.-Automobile accidents
have accounted for more deaths
than all the wars in which the
United States has ever engaged.
Yet the automobile is only so years
old, while the nations first war
was fought $50 years ago.
The authority for this analogy
of slaughter on the battlefields
and slaughter on the highways is
Major Charles A. Speed, director
of Traffic Safety for the North
Carolina State Highway Patrol.
Major Speed has the facts and
figures to prove his statement.
"Our first war;" he recalls, "was
started on April 10, ITS, in Lex
ington, Mass, when a group of
Yankee farmers who were tired of
race control fired a series of shots
that were literally heard around
the world. That started the Revo-
lutionary War. On September A.,
1851, the War Department an
nounced that somewhere in Korea
the millionth American soldier lost
his life in defense of our nation.
On December 81, 1851, just few
weeks after that date, the Nation
al Safety Council announced that
somewhere in Ohio the millionth
victim in America had just died.
"This date too had beginning, :"
Major Speed continued, "but you
won't find it in our history books
though we would do we'll to put
it there quickly. 1t began on Sep
TENDER Is, 1899, in New York City,
when a man by the name of Henry
Bliss, who had just stepped off a
trolley, started across the street
and was struck by one of the 5000
.horseless carriages that we had
in our nation at that time. To our
knowledge that was the first re-
corded auto fatality in America"
Major Speed asks this question
of North Carolina motorists:
"Now, who are you going to
blame for this? Do you feel that
someone in Washington should do
something about it? Do you feel
that your County Commissioners

door production which is playing
nightly except Mondays through
Labor Day.
Back in 1850 when "UntO These
Hills" was only a few days old
the whippoorwill came ON the
scene to contradict one of Kermit
Hunters lines-"It is so quiets
not even the birds are singing"
Hunter had to change the line,
and the whippoorwill has returned
each year, arriving on schedule
with the cast at the start of dress
rehearsals and appearing nightly
thereafter.
There are some who say the
whippoorwill takes Monday nights
off, just like members of the cast,
and that when the curtain goes
down on Labor Day night he also
takes his leave until another sea-
son.
Along with the cry of the whip
poorwill, the saga of the Cherokee
Indian is living again here In the
Valley of the Oconaluftee to bring
to the American public one of his
tory's great true stories.
The production, written by
Hunter and directed by Harry
Davis of the Carolina Playmakers,
is considered the best since its
opening in 1850 and which in five
years has been seen by approx
mately 100000 persons.
