Outside the raftered church—- ' built, so legend says, on the exact spot ot the manger—special police moved up and down in a strange atmosphere of reverent awe and , foreboding tension. War and threats of war, dimmed ' the joyous festival that usually is i Bethlehem's on this holy night, i For several days there have been rumors ot brewing trouble between the large Ethiopian population and the Catholic pilgrims from Italy. Nor was the holy city of the nativity packed, as It usually is, with visitors from the entire world. [ The native Christians were more I conspicuous than any others. Within the dimly lighted church where bells pealed throughout the day the high head-dresses of the women ot Bethlehem rose above the bowed heads of the congregation. Away toward the hills came the I bleating of stray lambs calling tor | their shepherd.

Chinese Dictator an Enigma ... ...4 . Jr i r 'is. I ’j c ‘* b>** I > I i nlbk ok f Jr7-?r . T * * .* ilk | j y C hian ( ide ■ Trim- / Gen Chiang Kai-Shek of China, whose name flared anew in the headlines when an autonomous state was recently formed in north China under sponsorship of Japan, looms as one of the most enigmatic dictators in power in the world today. Although he has been a power in Chinese affairs for 20 years, Chiang is a mysterious figure whose personal life is practically unknown, one who has pursued his political and military activities from the background as much as possible. Chiang rose to power as an aide of Dr. Sun Yat Sen when the latter launched the revolution which overthrew the Manchus. When Dr. Sun died in 1925, Chiang became dictator of China. The ver% secrecy with which he conducts his life has given rise to sharply contrasting opinions of him. Some look upon him as a grasping militarist who would sell China to Japan. His position was considerably strengthened in 1930 by his marriage to Soong Meiling of the powerful Soong family.
