1alse papers was true. It denied
any espionage was involved,
however. and blamed the whole
thing on attentions paid to
the clerk by a mysterious
"Czechoslovak citizen"
Ordered to Quit Prague
1t directed Miss Vera Marga-
ret Osso of Yorkville, Ohio. to
depart from Prague promptly
and report for a duty in the
United States Embassy in Vien-
ma.
The whole affair failed to fit
the usual pattern Of indignant
charge and angry countercharge
which has characterized the
custer Of scores of diplomats
from Communist or Western
capitals during the stormy de-
csde of East West conflict.
Some State Department off,
Gals wondered privately whether
Miss Osso might have been the
victim of trap to embarrass
the United States but others
thought they saw in the whole
thing perhaps an element of ro-
nance which suddenly was
caught up with in the fierce

cross currents Of international
politics.
At any rate the first word Of
the incident to flash across in
ternational frontiers came YES
terday morning when the Prague
radio announced the Czecnoslo-
YAK Communist government
wanted Miss Osso removed on
the ground that when she trav-
eled in the Tatra mountains she
had used identification papers
made out in the name of a
Czechoslovak woman.
The State Department first
said no comment; second, it said
it had heard Of the charges: and
third. issued a statement which
brought into the situatirr the
figure of the "Czechoslovak citi-
zen" otherwise unidentified.
The statement was prepared
and initially released by United
States Ambassador U. Alexis
Johnson. Miss Osso's boss in
Prague. Miss Osso. the statement
declared, was not engaged in
or in other such lille
gal activities"

Air Force Seeks
To Cut Down on
Civilian Risks

/ ISLIP. N. Y, Oct. IS (R.-
Secretary Of the Air Force
Quarles said today the Air Force
lis conducting an aggressive pro-
gram designed to minimize any
hazard or inconvenience" to ci-
villains living near air bases.
Z In a talk prepared for delivery
at an open house at Macarthur
Airport here, Mr.. Quarles said
accidents do occur and some
times they involve casualties
among the civilian population
But he said I'VE would weaken
our defense posture if we were
to relinquish any of our opera
tional bases at this time"
1--WE have no surplus of mod.
Iern bases" he said, land many
of our present bases are over
crowded"
Mr.. Quarles cited a recent
crash near Mitchell Air Force
Base. Long Island, in which a
jet pilot was killed and three ci-
william women were injured.
I'VE cannot undo accidents"
he said. "but we can and must
take all possible measures to pre-
vent them. !"
At Mitchell, he said, I'VE are
nearing completion of a longer
runway which will provide a
greater margin of safety in
takeoffs and landings. and we
are installing flexible barrier
brakes at the end of runways to
keep aircraft from overrunning
the field"
He said that recent closing Of
Mitchell to transient jet aircraft
will remain in effect at least
until these Improvements are
completed.
Mr.. Quarles said the Air Force
has traditionally located its new
bases lin areas sufficiently re-
moved from major communi-
ties But he said we have not
been able to control the subse-
quent development of land sur
rounding our bases"

its villains a family that uses her
in a violent grab for power.
In way, Most Noble Lady" is
the Cinderella legend with a
tragic ending. 1t is based upon
an 9th century Chinese fable
but no less timely in its signi-
flcance for that fact and with it's
currency UNDERSIGNED by modern
performances in ancient and ex-
travagant dress.
Unlike a couple of recent ia
paneses film imports, Most
Noble Lady" makes fewer COM
promises with western produc-
ton conventions, however. It
does well nevertheless to entrust
its heroine's portrait to Machiko
kyo, an oriental Audrey Hep
ourn who makes a wistfully beau
tiful figure in the tapestry like
settings of the film.
Nor will it hurt the prospects
Of Most Noble Lady" that Di-
rector Kenji Mizoguchi has de-
manded sharply contrasting
vigor OF his male performers.
X Z
Kwei Fei of the family of
Yangs is the essence of virtue
in family principally endowed
with vices, the worst of these
ambition.
She is a kitchen Slavey with
a singing heart and entirely con-
tent with her lot when the story
begins. No one pays any atten-
ton to her until her older male
relatives see her as a possible
successor to the Empress whose
death has left the Emperor in
consolable.
The political astuteneSS of the
willy Yangs could not be more am
ply proved than in this judg-
ment. Kwei Fei is the remedy
for the Emperor'S sadness, rot
alone for her physical attractive
ness but for the sincerity of her
