Laos Invasion
Is Not Proved
But North Wet Nam
Helped Rebels,
Probers Report

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y,
Nov. 6 (AP).-The United Ma
tions fact : finding committee
on Laos reported today it had
found no proof that Commu-
mist forces from North Wet
Nam had taken part in the
current conflict in the little
Indo- Chinese kingdom.
In a 32-page report to the
11-nation Security Council the
committee declared, however,
that the Laotian rebels had re-
ceived equipment, arms, sup
plies and the help of polit-
ical advisers from neighboring
North Wet Nam.
The report was the result
of a f1rst-hand inquiry by
the four member committee
created by the Security Coun-
Gil last September Z. Members
of the group were Japan, Ar
gentina. Italy and Tunisia.
Fighting Slowed
The committee reported that
since September Is the fighting
has slowed down land the gen.
eral scope of the military ac-
tions has taken the characters
tics of guerrilla activity, scat
tered practically throughout
the territory of the kingdom"
In view of the failure Of the
report to back up Laotian
charges of Communist agrees
sion. the Western powers were
reported looking for a way to
shelve the whole thing quietly.
The key part of the report
said:
witnesses reported that in
certain cases there had been
participation of armed elements
with ethnic Wet Namese char
acteristics, but they did not
identify them as belonging to
North Wet Nam regular army
units.
THE ensemble of informal
ton submitted did not
clearly establish whether there
were crossings of the frontier
by regular troops of the Demo-
cratic Republic of North Wet
Nam"

M0destly They Agree On
Who Were The Greatest.
There's a little story going
around that folks around the
Post Office Department love TO
tell.
Seems that Former Postmaster
General James A. Farley called
on Postmaster General Arthur f..
Summerfield and as he was
leaving they walked down the
corridor where the portraits OF
former Postmasters General hang.
AS they approached Benjamin
Franklin's portrait Mr.. Farley
said: "You know Arthur, there
have never been but three great
Postmasters General"
who's the third, Jim" asked
Mr.. Summerfield.
franklin, replied Mr.. Farley.
Without doubt, the present
Postmaster General, Arthur E.
Symmetrical will go down as one
of the greatest. Outstanding ova-
tions from his home town, Flint,
Michigan and from the Post
masters National Convention last
year substantiates that belief.
"The ~Summerfield Story" related
at the Postmaster's National Con-
vention listed accomplishments,
during his six years of service,
too numerous to mention in this
short column. Postmasters OF
both political parties were unan-
imous in their phrase of his ac-
complishments; and to we, lesser
cogs in this giant wheel, he did
not forget us while supporting all
legislation that identified us.
When the elderly colored lady,
dutifully accompanied by the
reverend" of her church, APP
proched the window of the Don
aldsonville, La, post office and
inquired sis dis WHARF you gifts
a flag for my husband who is
daid?" the postmaster replied
Eyes" and in an appropriatingly
condoling manner proceeded to
ask necessary questions and COM
plete the Veterans Administration
form. This done, the postmaster
had the applicant sign and fin
ally handed the flag over to her
with a parting word of sympathy.
The applicant held the box con-
tanning the flag close to her breast
and with a slight and faint hesi-
fancy mumbled, "Whare is de
pole dat go with de flag?"
The only thing that goes as far
as it did ten years ago is the
dime when it rolls under the bed.

Change In Russian
Policy Unlikely
Frear Cautions

United States Senator j. Allen
Frear today stressed that the
plight of the captive nations OF
communism must not be over
looked in our forthcoming meet
ings with Premier Khrushchev.
Mr.. Frear declared, "it is more
than likely that the Kremlin will
continue to insist that the status
of these countries and their re-
lationship to Soviet Russia is a
matter of private concern and
there should be no interference
from the West. For that reason
representatives of the captive
nations and many other Ameri-
cans deeply concerned with the
welfare of countries behind the
iron curtain have been express
ing the hope and even the de-
mand that our government con-
tinue to maintain, and strength
en- if possible, its attitude of
sympathy and support toward
the eventual objective of free
dom for these countries.
Senator Frear also emphasized
that the fate of the Russian sat
elite nations is of equal con-
cern to the so-called neutral or
uncommitted peoples. He added,
"it seems to me that if the
United States continues to de-
fend the rights of any nation to
enjoy personal freedom, it would
considerably strengthen the atti-
tude of the small neutral coun-
tries against too much involve
ment with the Kremlin, at the
expense of the West"
Senator Frear also cautioned
against expecting any change in
Russian policy as a result of MIR.
Khrushchev's visit. He noted
that the earlier trips to this
country by other high-ranking
leaders in the Kremlin did moth
ing to ease the crisis in Berlin
nor lessen tensions in other
areas of the world where East
and West are in dispute.
