Leadership Is
 Topic Of Speech

Leadership Is Topic Of Speech
 Rotary members at their noon luncheon Tuesday at the 49 Room heard Capt. Nathan R. Lincoln Jh, USN, talks on Leadership
 Two sets of statistics were given by Capt. Lincoln pointing the need for the program now beine undertaken by the military to teach leadership and responsibility to the youth in various commands.
 The first statistics concerned Korea, where American studies showed that of 1000 prisoners, not one escaped; that 5000 died, not just because of torture or malnu- tfjitior but because of lack of will to live; and where mere 5 per cent showed indications of leadership. The second set of figuDes concerred crime. Here the rate of crime jumped from 13 per cent fnom 195O-57 to 56 per cent, with 50 per cent of the fel- onies committed by 17-years-old- and younger.
 Capt. Lincoln said he believed youth of today is basicany sound but that the environment has changed and must be corrected. It is the task of parents and adults to teach youth responsibility to combat the influences of broken homes.
 The navy, he said, is paying special attention to the problem by conducting regular meetings of department heads, by holding discussions on topics of concern of today to provide better under standing, and by dinecting all its activities toward the constant goal of providing an example and guid- ance to the young men in the service.
 Navy Chief Al Hooker showed the club movies Of part of the 1000 Roosevelt elk on Afognak Island. In attendance was honorary mem ter Rear Admiral A.W. McKechnie and student member Norman Smith, Jr. Guests included Joe Duffield, Capt. Lyle Strickler and Chief Al Hooker.

Ciiy To Appeal On Court Ruling

The City of Kodiak will appeal the judgement handed down by District Judge J.L. McCarrey, Jr. recently in which he stated the City could not remove the batch plant on the Russian Church prop erty because 1t had given permis- sion for it's use.
 The city seeks to have it re- moved. branding it nuisance, and hazardous.
 whether by private enterprise or as cooperative. The plant would encourage small boats to fish hal ibut, be a boon to cattle raisers, and greatly assist the economy in many cher ways, it was brought out.
 The Council voted to have the City Manager pursue the matter further, enlisting the services of Sen. Bartlett in determining what assistance n planning may be offered by the Federal government.
 There was considerable discus sion on Kodiak's future water sup ply, following the reading of a letter from Hubbel & Waller, Se- attle Engineering firm making a survey of Kodiak's water poten- tial. The firm favored utilizing Pillar Creek as a source, but did not favor Lake Kathleen, branding it as polluted.

Uprising of Korean Students
Proves q Bitter Blow to Rhee

his leadership has come the
controversy which seems now
to have overtaken him.
Whether he is, as some say.
a benevolent despot, or. as
others charge. a tyrant, is open
to question.
Has Been Sole Ruler
But there is no doubt that
Syngman Rhee-until today
has been the sole ruler of
Korea. He has seldom placed
full trust in his heutenants-
or his country's elected legis-
lators.
At his home, or palace, in
Seoul, he has been surrounded
with armed bodyguards. De-
spite his often expressed views
on constitutional government
and democracy. Mr.. Rhee has
ignored the National Assembly
and brushed aside legalities
which would have restricted his
presidency to three terms.
In 1852 at the height of the
Korean war, Mr.. Rhee's police
arrested IL members of the
Assembly who opposed him.
He suspended two opposition
newspapers the next year and
in 1854 quietly ordered the
execution of an editor.
Replies to Truman
President Truman is reported
to have written Mr.. Rhee that
he was shocked" at political
developments in Korea. Mr..
Rhee, who was threatening to
dissolve the National Assembly,
replied that the situation had
been exaggerated"
Last month Mr.. Rhee rolled
up the largest vote of his career
as President. But what was
his opposition? Chough Pyung-
Ok the Korean Democratic
Party for President, died in a
Washington hospital a month
before the election. His 1856
opponent also died before the
election.
Mr.. Rhee rarely has publicly
replied to his critics. But once
he told a reporter for The Star:
Some of my foreign critics
have attempted to spread the
idea I am dictator, but the
Korean people know the truth.
|. There is no justification
for anyone to assert that Korea
is a dictatorship or police
state"
That was in 1855. Now, ap-
parently, the Korean people
feel differently.

counsel suggested that such a
licensing agreement prevents
smaller companies from buy
ing the drug in bulk form end
selling it to diabetic sufferers
at cheaper prices. You don't
think that such restrictions are
not in violation of the Sherman
Antitrust Act?" Mr.. Dixon
asked.
Mr. Harrop siad such agree
ments are well covered and
protected under this country's
patent laws.
Senator Kefauver condemned
the fact that Upjohn has an
exclusive license for Orinase
when there is no patent.
Application Contested
Mr.. Harrop said that until
there is a patent granted any
body could sell it, but he i'm
piled that it would be too
expensive for an unlicensed
company to go through the
necessary testing only to find
its right revoked if and when
a patent is eventually granted.
Mr.. Dixon then asked Mr..
Harrop if it is not true that
another company is contesting
the German firms application
before the Patent Office.
Mr.. Harrop conceded this is
true. but refused to reveal to
the committee the name of this
third party, saying that Up
johns contract with Hoechat
makes such information con-
fidential.

Nepa| Accord
Seen by Chou.

KATMANDU, Nepal, April 26
(AP).-Premier Chou En-lai
arrived in Katmandu today and
expressed hope his visit would
improve relations between Red
China and Nepal.
In a brief airport speech, Mr..
Chou said the two countries
have reached a satisfactory
agreement on questions of
boundaries.
A crowd of about 1900
cheered despite the fact that
Nepalese tempers have been
raised by Peiping's recent
claims to all of Mount Everest,
which is generally considered
partly in Nepal and partly in
Red-occupied Tibet.
Prime Minister B. P. Koirala
did not mention the ticklish
border dispute in his brief well
coming speech but dwelt on
traditional ties between the two
countries. Mr.. Koirala said his
recent visit to Peiping contrib
uted to his close friendship.
(Nepals King Mahendra,
en- route to Washington for
a State visit, said in Homo
lulu that last months border
agreement between his coun-
try and Red China placed
Everest wholly in Nepal.
Koirala, on his return from
Peiping, gave the distinct
impression that China had
not withdrawn its claim
Mr.. Chou, fresh from a visit
to New Delhi that failed to
solve Red China's bitter from
tier dispute with India, said
the border agreement with
Nepal and agreement for
Chinese economic aid to the
Himalayan kingdom, "set a
good example for Asian coun-
tries to live together in friend
ship" The two governments
agreed to establish a Joint
commission to define the 500
mile Himalayan border between
Nepal and Tibet.

this week are devoted to the

The Senator noted that
Orinase brings the Upjohn Co.
some $50 million a wear. al

elusive license to produce and

Invented in 1855
DR.. Upjohn testified that the
drug was invented by Germans
in 1855 and that his medical
director Immediately went to
Hoechat to exercise en- option
previously agreed to for Ameri-

Kefauver Hits
Diabetes Druq
Sale Monopoly
By CHARLES G. BROOKS
Star stan Writer

The Justice Department
should investigate the licensing
agreement which gives one drug
company the sole right to the
largest-selling oral antidiabetes
drug in this country, Senator
Kefauver said today.
The entire matter of exclu-
sive licensing should be looked
into as being highly restric-
tive" the Tennessee Democrat
declared.
This, he said, involves a sit
uation where such licenses are
theoretically not legally effiec-
tive until a patent is issued.
But in practice they actually
are effective anyway and roy
alties are paid, he added.

BY HAYNES JOHNSON
Star STAFF Writer

For the stubborn. strong
Willed old man of Korean poll
tics. there is bitter irony in the
uprising of students and edu-
Gators which theatens to topple
his long regime.
1t was as a young student
that Syngman Rhee. now 85.
edited a revolutionary paper
and organized mass demonstra-
tions of students for Korean in
dependence and, at the age of
%, was tortured and imprisoned
for seven years.
Today in the twilight of a long
and arduous career. Mr.. Rhee
is capitulating to the pressures
of those who want increased
freedom with the independence
brought about by Japan's defeat
in World War II.
Victim of MObs
Until now, Mr.. Rhee has
been able to put down the mur-
murs of opposition that have
been rising steadily for some
years.
AS early as 1916, not long
after United States troops lib
Grated Korea and before inde-
pendence was granted, there
were attempts to assassinate
the tough, vigorous Korean.
Political leaders who opposed
Mr.. Rhee have been jailed,
newspapers have been sup
pressed, mobs have marched on
his home in Seoul.
His friends have had a stock
answer to any and all opposi-
tion over the years: The oppo-
sition was Communicated or
Communist-inspired.
That anSwer-while it once
may have had some validity
does not apply now.
There are some who say that
Mr.. Rhee has grown senile;
that now he has intrusted his
government to Lee Ki-poong,
his vice president. Mr.. Lee, it is
charged, has been instrumental
in imposing a police state on
the Korean people.
intimidation Charged
In both last months presi-
dental election and the one in
1856 there were charges of bru-
tality. Voters were intimidated,
ballot boxes were stuffed and
opposition candidates we're
stifled, the anti-Rhee faction
claims.
Mr.. Rhee, in statement yes
terday. acknowledged that there
"are reports of many unfair
practices" in the election.
Syngman Rhee was born
March 26, 1875, the only son of
a family which traced its de-
scent from a 15th-century king
of Korea.
In compliance with his faith
er's wish that he obtain a lit
erary degree, Mr.. Rhee received
a classical education. He en-
tered a Methodist school at
Seoul in order to learn English
and emerged as an ardent sup
porter of democracy.
In 1894 he joined the Inde-

pendence Club, which sought
reforms under the Korean
monarchy and elimination of
Japanese influence in the gov
ernment.
Led Reform N:Svement
The next year he became
leader of a reform movement
and was forced to flee the
country. After organizing a
student demonstration, he was
imprisoned and tortured.
To this day he is said to
have the habit of blowing on
his hands when excited. His
torturers had mashed his
fingers.
While in prison he became
a convert to Christianity. He
translated English books into
Korean and wrote in Korean
the Spirit of Independence, "
a book which has had many
reprintings.
He was released from prison
in 1904 under a general am
nesty for political prisoners
and came to the United States.
Mr.. Rhee received his bache-
lor of arts degree from George
Washington University here
and his masters at Harvard. In
1908, he enrolled in Princeton
University's graduate school
where he is said to have been
strongly influenced by Wood
row Wilson, then president of
Princeton.
Champion of Independence
Mr.. Rhee's doctoral disserta-
tion-"Neutrality as Influenced
by the United States"-was
published in 1912.
1t was in 1910 that Japan
finally seized Korea. Nine years
later the Korean people rose in
revolt. The rebellion was
crushed and Mr.. Rhee spent
the next two decades leading
the movement for Korean in
dependence.
From long before World War
II until 1945, when he returned
In triumph to Korea with
American troops, Mr.. Rhee was
a familiar figure in Washing
ton. During his years in the
Capital, Mr.. Rhee headed a Ko-
rean commission seekin e
United States support for the
government-in-exile. His ef-
forts were capped when the
Western Allies, under United
States pressure, agreed at the
Cairo conference that Korea
would be independent.
In 1948 he was named the
Republic OF Korea's first presi-
dent.
Since then. the short, bald

Berlin Ovation

BERLIN, May 4 (AP) Mar

Berlin stage last night after 81
years absence and scored a
triumph. She took two encores
and II curtain calls.
Mayor Willy Brandt stood up
and led the applause when she
concluded with a favorite local
song: Il Still Have a Trunk in
Berlin"
Before the performance, two
placards appeared outside the
theater with the legend Mar
lene Go Home" in German and
English. They were obviously
done by the same hand.
One of the men carrying
them said they were "front-line
veterans" Marlene did not see
the signs.
AS the audience emerged from
the Titania Palast Theater,
about 20 young men were
chanting in chorus: "Marlene,
Raus aus Deutschland MAR
lene. Get Out of Germany.
Police appeared only in the
normal strength seen at big
theatrical occasions.
The 1.800-seat theater was
about three-quarters full. Many
forward seats - which were
priced at 100 marks C$23.80)
had been given away.
At first the applause was
little more than polite, but it
warmed up. She did l8 songs,
most in German. Enthusiasm
grew with each one.
I'm very satisfied with my
reception" Marlene told re-
porters, her arms full of red
roses. And I'm very glad
Mayor Brandt was there"
BY the time she got out to
her car, the anti-Marlene
demonstrators had gone but
about 200 fans were still wait
ing.
GO on for another so years,
