Force B-29 lost June 13, 1852, over the Sea of Japan or near the Kamchatka area of Soviet Siberia.
 The B-29 carried 12 men and the Privateer 10.
 The note said the United States had been informed and was "com- pelled to believe" that some of the crew members from the two planes are being held by the So- viets.
 Tt may well be-" the note went on, that the Soviet government has in its custody members of other United States aircraft, par ticularly crew members of air. craft engaged in behalf of the United Nations Command side of the military action in Korea since 1950."
 The note explained that the US. government for some time has received information from persons freed from Soviet im- prisonment that they had "con- versed with, seen or heard re- ports" concerning American air men lin actual detention in the Soviet Union."
 The note continued:
 "The reports have now become so persistent and detailed, and so credible that, although the United States government is not able to identify by name these Ameri- can nationals now detained by the Soviet government, it requests the Soviet government to inform (the U.S) in detail concerning each American military person who has been detained in the So- viet Union at any time since Jan. 1, 1949, of whom the U.S) has not heretofore been informed .'
 The State Department indicated today it hopes release of the note will encourage persons who know about the men to come. forward with information that will help free them.

Democratic Candidates Fire New Blasts at President Eisenhower

The three leading candidates for the Democratic presidential nom- ination-Adlai Stevenson, Sen. Estes Kefauver and Gov. Averen Hartman of New York-fired new blasts at President Eisen- hover Monday night.
 Kefauver said of Eisenhower, He is already helpless with his own people. They won't support him now" He predicted "chaos" if Eisenhower is "re-elected."
 Hartman said Eisenhower "has surrendered to the old guard of the Republican Party, to big busi- ness and special interest. If we have four more years of Eisen- hover, we will see vast change in our free enterprise system"
 Stevenson telegraphed that "my travels around the country have convinced me that the people have had enough of government by drift, by single-interest, by complacency and by stage-man- ager."

Lost Hair by the Brushful

Lost Halr by The brushful
 In the summer of 1854 Mrs. Luce came home for thorough medical checkup in a New York hospital. Doctors said she was suffering from serious anemia and nervous fatigue.
 After two months she felt bet ter and returned to Rome.
 The symptoms soon returned, however, and became ever more distressing. She began to lose hair by the brushful. Her fingernails became brittle. Her teeth loos- ened. She was confined to her bed more and more.
 The Ugly Word
 Late in 1854 She went to a US. Navy hospital in Naples. A Navy doctor examined her and asked if any of her medicines contained arsenic.
 "It was the first time the ugly word had been mentioned in con- nection with her illness" Time said.
 Later she reported the arsenic poison theory to a friend in the Central Intelligence Agency.
 Meanwhile, Navy doctors sent laboratory specimens to the US. Naval hospital at Bethesda, Md. They used a fictitious name Seaman Jones"-for the pa tient.
 Seaman Jones' Poisoned
 The report came back: Seaman Jones" was a victim of arsenic 
 Mrs. Luce realized at once she was in a ticklish situation. Deli cate diplomatic relations might be jeopardized if the news were made public.
 Investigators checked American and Italian employees at the em- bassy. Nothing suspicious turned up. Within week the poison was traced to the arsenate of lead in the bedroom ceiling. The room was quickly repainted with non- leaded paint, eliminating the danger.
 Mrs. Luce returned to the Unit ed States last May for treatment to counteract the arsenic poison ing. She is to leave this week for a three week cruise on the Medi- terranean Sea. Then she will re- sume her duties at the Villa Taverna.

Barbecued Corn &
Meat Balls Make
Excellent EATING

One Of the things I enjoy most
about cooking is finding a new
way to combine two favorite foods
in one dish --- and making some
thing new" that my family really
likes. That's why barbecued corn
and meat balls, made from my
Pet evaporated Milk recipe, has
always been one of my favorites.
We've always liked meat balls,
and always liked corn-but, in
combination, and in a zeppy barbe-
cue sauce, they're really extra
special! Another thing l like a.
bout this Pet Milk recipe is the
wonderful results you get making
the meat balls-they're always so
tender an juicy, with such dehc-
ious, meaty flavor. You see, Pet
Milk helps bind the meat-and-
bread crumb mixture together
actually blends it together so
you get all the good meat flavor
without the dryness you usually
find in meat balls made from meat
alone. OF course, you couldn't get
those results with ordinary milk,
because Pet Milk is double rich;
in fact it's little more than twice
as rich as regular bottled milk.
Honestly, l think you'l find
meat balls made this way are the
best ever and that Pet Milk
makes Barbecued Corn and Meat
balls dish everyone in your fam
lily will love. Thy this recipe-and
just see!
