FouIed Up in Bar,
Woozy Goose Is
Told to FIv Coop

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 5 (P)
A woozy goose was evicted from
"a hotel bar last night-the victim
of a quackdown.
The goose. a stately 21a -footer,
waddled into the bar with a
California couple. He had made
similar appearances in the place
Wednesday and Thursday night.
The goose imbibed both eve
nings. In fact, he tippled beer to
the point of being very woosy.
Hotel Detective Jess Keeling
took gander at the goose, but
kept his silence Wednesday and
Thursday Maybe the goose would
go away. he thought.
When Mr.. Keeling looked in on
the bar last night, the goose was
there again as foul a fowl
as could be found.
Not only was the goose
screeching drunkenly, but he was
picking sequins off a woman pa
irons dress.

Keeling said to himself.
Out went the goose and his
companions.

very quickly" If the Commu-
Inists knocked over the Indo-
China domino, the next to fall
might be Burma or Thailand
Malaga or Indonesia. Even
Americas island defense chain
might be observation-disclosures
and the Philippines.
BY February the situation was
so critical that, regardless OF
previous policy, the possibility Of
American intervention by one
means or another became the
subject of serious elaboration.
In March the Communists
were besieging the French gar
rison at Dienbienphu. The fort
was not intrinsically important
but the cream of French forces
was committed there.
Pleas for U. S. Intervention
Gen. Paul Ely, French Chief
of Staff, visited Washington in
the third week of March and
urged that the United States
quickly go to the rescue of Diem
bienphu by means of a massive
air strike from carriers. Ad-
miral Radford at one point IA

ton. Gen. Ridgway, Army Chief
of Staff, was vigorously opposed
He predicted that ground troops
would be drawn in and that it
would be a tragic adventure" in
the jungleS and rice paddles OF
Indo-China. In his memoirs
Soldier" Gen. Ridgway says he
forwarded his view to Mr.. Eli
senhower and that Ito a man OF
his military experience its impli-
cations were Immediately clear.
Some time after Gen. Ely's
visit, Foreign Minister Georges
Bidault again urged American
air intervention on our Ambas-
sador Dillon in Paris. Mr.. Dillon
cabled Secretary of State Dulles
but Mr.. Dulles rejected the sug-
gestion without consulting the
President, knowing that Mr.. Eli
senhoWer was dead set against
intervention without congress
sional approval.
On April Is, Vice President
Nixon made a supposedly Off
the-record speech to the Wash
ington meeting of the American
Society of Newspaper Editors.
If France should withdraw its
troops from Indo-China, he was
asked, should American troops
be sent to replace them if that
were necessary to prevent the
loss of Indo-China to the Reds?
Nixon replied that the free
world could not afford further
retreat in Asia. IF in order to
avoid it," he said, I'VE must take

apparently, from the fact that
the British had not changed the
position which they had stated
earlier that they would delay de-
cisions until the Geneva confer
ence. My information is that no
breach of faith was involved.
Rather than being ready to en-
bark Immediately upon a COL
lective defense of Indochina, both
the British and French were de-
itermined to see first what could
be accomplished through nego-
tiation at the Donation confer
ence on Asian problems opening
in Geneva in the last week of
April.
The President never consented
to unilateral Intervention. His
personal decision ruled out an
air strike.
Agree to Cease Fire
On July 81 the French agreed
to a cease-f1re and a partition
of Vietnam. The Communists
got the northern half, and the
southern half remained free. The
whole peninsula - which Mr..
Eisenhower had likened to a
domino-did not fall.
The United States did not take
part in the Geneva conference,
but in the end gave tacit support
to the French in their settle
ment. The United States an
nounced it would regard with
grave concern" any renewal of
aggression. Thus Washington
helped materially, at least in the
opinion of its diplomats, to get
the best of a bad bargain.
Another point of view is that
the Reds stopped where they
stopped because they felt it to
be to their own best interests
at that particular time to do so.

can boys in. I believe that the
executive branch has to take
the politically unpopular posi-
ton of facing up to it and doing
1T, and I personally would sup
port such a decision"
Stirs Storm of Opposition
His remark caused a storm OF
opposition in Congress and from
the public.
| About that same time, how
ever, during the battle for Diem
bienphu, the United States was
rendering form of military help
to the French. On April 81 and
again in early May, 1854, the
United States used it's CHA
Globemasters in Europe to fly
French paratroopers from Paris
to Indo-China as reinforcementS
A second form of help has not
been officially acknowledged. But
Joseph and Stewart Alsop, special
writer's for the New York Herald
Tribune. stated on April 80 that;
"a force of American carriers
has been on station in the Gulf
of Tonkin, within convenient
striking range, since the critical
Indo-C Chinese battle of Diem
bienphu began to move toward
its climax" The carriers were
ready, and Red China knew it.
A third French request for an
air strike was made late in April
when Mr.. Dulles and Admiral
Radford were in Paris for a
INATO Council meeting. Again
Mr.. Dulles said no, for the stu
alton at Dienbienphu had de-
Perforated too far to be saved by
an air attack. On May Z Diem
biephu and its hapless garrison
fell to the Communists.
Eve Conditions for Action
A little more than a month
before the tragic surrender of
Dienbienphu the Sunday night
White House meeting was held
The momentous decision to COM
nit American forces was taken,
provided that the following con-
ditionS were met:
/. Congress must approve.
2. Britain must participate in
the collective defense of Indo-
china. Implicit in that, in the
American view, was participation
by Australia and New Zealand
also.
3. France and the French
IUnion-Vietnam, Cambodia and
Laos-must invite the United
States and allies to join them in
their struggle.
4. France must agree to stay
in the war, not pull out when
Others came in to help shoulder
the burden.
5. France must go beyond her
previous efforts in granting I'M
.equivocal independence to Wet
nam, Laos and Cambodia, so
that American entry into Indo-
china would not have the faint
of colonialism.
In addition, the President
hoped that Thailand and the
Philippine Republic would par
ticipate, to demonstrate that
East and West were Joined in
opposing Communist aggression
Dulles Misunderstanding
Mr.. Dulles then went to Lon
don and Paris. When he returned
to Washington he felt a sense
of confidence that he had re-
'ceived generalized agreement
on organizing united action. But
this proved to be serious mis-
understanding, at least in Mr.
Dulles mind.
The misunderstanding arose,

Minister Churchill. AS it turned
out, however, the conditions were
not met.
The background goes back to
the Truman administration, for
the Indo-China problem was one
Mr.. Eisenhower inherited. The
fighting between the French and

French war, but in a broader
sense it became Americas war.
too, because the United States
was the leader of the struggle
against communism and, after
the Korean truce, Indo-China be-
came the most active battlefield
in that struggle. In 1854 the
United States was paying more
than third of the cost of the
French operations and was sup
plying technical assistance.
Navarro Plan Put in Effect
Eight months after the Eisen-
hover administration took Office
it agreed to increase financial
aid to bolster the French. At
the same time the French. with
American approval, set in mo-
ton the Navarro plan. named
for the French commanding
general in Indo-China. The
plan called for a major increase
in the strength of the Wet
namese Army and in American
aid in arms and money. The
French proposed to create mo-
bile combat teams for offensive
operations, and hoped-far too
optimistically, as it turned out
to smash the organized body
Of Communist aggression in 1855
and thereby reduce the fighting
to guerrilla warfare in 1856.
The United States was badly
advised to put faith in the Ma
varre plan. 1t failed. The
French lacked the offensive spirit
needed for success. The native
population was Indifferent and
unco-operative.
The development of American
policy regarding Indo-China was
spotty and tardy in 1854. One
gets the impression that the
problem came before the Presi-
dent in piecemeal fashion, and
not at the same pace. as events
on the battlefield. The climax
arrived sooner than some of the
highest American officials eX-
pected. WaShington's appraisal
of the situation seems to have
been distorted by conflicting in
telligence.

Marriage
Let's Look at
By KATHARINE ROY

MARRIAGES. time of high hopes,
rejoicing and joy-sufficient to last, we
hope, for lifetime. Since we want to
preserve these values for the married
or about-to-be-married, parents, friends,
and teachers ask-what is associated
with happy marriage?
Today you may hear 81 had to work
and save some money before I could
think of marriage; "a college educa-
ton came before marriage; 81 de-
layed marriage to help my younger
brothers and sisters; 81 wanted to
work for year to gain confidence in
myself and in case of emergency, to be
able to care for my family; 81 wanted
to enjoy full college life without added
responsibility. Statements by men and
women turn peoples attention to age
at marriage.
Both the groom and bride in 1850
were more than year younger, on the
average, than the corresponding young
persons who were entering their first
marriage a decade earlier paul c.
Click, us. Bureau of the Census. The
/ previous 50-year period, 1890-1940. the
average age for grooms had declined
about two years and for brides about
one-haf year.
Chronological age is not always a
sign of maternity but often time is
needed for growth and development
Marriage gives adult status and usually
change in residence. Can parents let
their young children become Mr.. and
Mrs? Will young people cease their
dependency and shift their emotional
gears to their own beginning family?
These two people are ready for mar
riage when childish love has been re-
placed by mature love which means
the needs of others are as important
to you as your own needs.
Courtship is the process by which
young people get acquainted with them
selves and with their prospective mate
Time is needed to share feelings and
find common enjoyments.
Differences understood or reconciled
before marriage make for smoother
sailing in marriage CourtShip may be
speeded up in our time of hurry up"
and rapid change, vocational detectives
could be blurred or lost, great mobility
and glamour may bring together people
of great differences in values, religious
beliefs and economic standards with the
result that ''you may not understand
what the other is saying" Remember,
the really married understand so well
that they can converse in grunts.
Young people look forward to mar
riage. They want love, home, a fam
lily, a relationship which lasts after
their children are grown. The spirit of
the marriage is basic to happiness but
society also has stake in these young
people. Hence the emphasis on prepa.
ration for marriage.
Education and military service are
discussed not only by the young-col
leges and parents also give deep con.
sideration to these problems. The 1856
figures for Montana show 25.5 per cent
OF the young men of college age 1925
are attending college while 11.9 per cent
OF Montana women of this age attend
college. Half of the young men have

school marriages often mean ''drop-
outs from school.
You can't have everything. When are
you marrying and on what basis are
you making your decisions? Under
standing the emotional, physical and
developmental factors that make for
good marriage usually takes time and
adds stability to the marriage.
To some, marriage seems to be a
glorified solution to all problems rather
than an approach to an effective family
where many decisions are shared by
a man and woman who care for each
other.
