only; firm agreement to, come out ' of .the tour days of conferences between Dulles and South Korean President Syngman Rhee and his government. Korean officials sa'd the defense pact pledges the United Stales to take “military’ action” in support at the South Korean Republic against any further Communist aggression. It also gives the United States, the right to base armed forces in South Korea, jthey said. Dulles and assistant secretary o| Walter Robertson called oA Abee again this afternoon to discussion of plans for the' Korean peace conference. Rhee’s formula for unification of Korea, under his government was under* stood; to be the main topic of discussion. iWhjile they were meeting, Henry Cabot; Lodge J||r., U.S. ambassador to tho United Nations told a news conference he 'did not believe ‘‘any hard and fast agreement on policy at the peace conference” will come out of the Rhee-Dulles talks.

Urge Steps To Learn If Reds Hold Prisoners Congressmen Urge Administration Seek Qf \ WASHirXCTON UP — Several congressmen urged the administration today to do everything possible to learn if the Communists are holding back U. S. prisoners and, if so, to take action to get them back. 'Ainong those making the plea were Sens. Homer Ferguson RMich., a member of the foreign relations committee,-and Richard B. Russell D-Ga., ranking Democrat on the armed services committee. ■ . i

“We should do ali we can to ascertain whether the Communists have these prisoners,” Ferguson said. "We allow the Red^ Cross Into all our Korean prison camps., lEJvet-ybody knows how many prisoners we have. The Communists should be equally frahk.” ' Russell said the United States “certainly should take steps to get back all the prisoners that the Communists hold.” He charged that the poor condition of returning POW’s showed tie Communists* "lack of good fail h.” Chairman Dewey Short R-Mo of<he house armed services committee sounded a msre cautious note. Making charges and investigating missing POW’s at this particular time, he saidj might bar freedom for those U, is. prisoners the Communists now plan to send back. Gen. Mark W. Clara. United Nations commander in the Far East, said Thursday that this country believes the Communists are holding between 2.000 and 3,000 more American POW’s than the 3,313 they agreed to return. But the 57-year old officer said there isn't much hope of ever getting the full truth. “I don’t know what we can do about it unless we use force—which isn’t in the cards,” he said. Short said he believed many’ of the prisoners listed as captured probably are dead. But he said he “wouldn’t be surprised” if the Reds held more tirnn they have reported.

‘Army officials share Short's fear al>out the fate of many of the niisring. Stories returning POW’s have told of death marches and starvation treatment have convinced army leaders that a lareg number of captured Americans must have died. j The army thinks this might account in large ineasoie for the discrepancy between the Communist total and the number the United States has reason to believe the Communists captured How Clark s statement jibes with this feeling was not clear. (Meanwhile, there was increasing speculation within- the army that the Communist lists were incomplete because some American soldiers have been taken to China for use either as forced laborers or propaganda tools! - The army knows for a fact that a small group of captured Americans were taken to Manchuria and South China for "indoctrination.” Some of them have been recorded making propaganda broadcasts over Red Peiping radio, although they have never been reported captured Ijy the Communists. Autoist Fined For Reckless Driving j'i Chester Roth, 58, route 2, Geneva, was fined $1 and costs on a plea of reckless driving in justice of the peace court Thursday. Roth admitted running a red light at Monroe apd Thirteenth and ramming another car because his wife was "reading a letter” to him. Berne-French Rate Is Fixed At $2.18 _ '■u : f The Berne - French township board of school trustees met Thursday, evening in regular session to adopt the- budget and determine the necessary tax rates for 1954. The special school fund rate is 85 cents, the tuition fund rate, 75 cents, and the bond fund rate 18 cents. The total rate for operating purposes in $1.78 on ‘each 1190 of taxable property. The 25 cent cumulative building fund rate which has been levied for five years expires with the December distribution of taxes this year. The board of school trustese is now in the process of establishing a 40 “cent rate for this fund for the next five years to provide for expanding high school facilities when the present increased elementary enrollment recahcs high school. The total rate for all school purposes including the cumulative building fund in $2.18. If you nave sometning to sen or looms for rent, try a Democrat 'Arant Add. It brings results

Christian's Fight, Lesson for August 9, 1953 < it IT’S, a bonny fight," were the \ * last words of a sermon by Rev. Andrew K. Rule; “don’t ye want to get in it?” Reverend gentlemen do not always preseht Christianity in such vigorous terms. One hears more often something to this effect: “It’s a water-tight Ark; don’t you want to be pulled aboard?" or “It’s,a wonderful schopl; don’t you want

to register?” or “It’s a fine laundry; drop in and get clean!" or “It’s a great hospital; don’t you want some treatment?" Well, of course Christianity can be presented in all these ways. But A. it.

Rule being (by Foreman way of New Zealand) a Scotsman, he would present Christianity in terms of what all Celts dearly love—a fight. This is not an original idea. Paul had it long ago. That Apostle spoke of the Christian life as one that has to be lived in battledress, as we would say. He even spoke of it as a prisefight (I Cor. 9). At the end of his life he referred to all of it as a "good fight.” ; i • • * The, Nearest Enemy » God himself is presented in the Bible as a battling God. The Greeks might think of him as serene above the sky, untroubled and untroubling; but the saints who wrote the Bible knew God as one who has a fight on his hands and virho wages unceasing war on a persistent enemy. Ndt that the issi|e is in doubt. The great message of the Bible is that God vdill win. meanwhile, the fight is on. liie Christian is one jwho has enlisted in the army of I God. God’s enemies are his enemies. So far as this world is concerned (we have no present concern with any other) our and God’s, are all those forces Avhich tear down and destroy God’s purposes, etreryl thing that tears and destroys hu*| mankind. Now the Christian is! bound to fight everything in pubs lie and in private life which weakens and corrupts man; bus the nearest enemy to every Chris* ian is—himself. It is not true that a man is his own best friend; but it is true that he is his own worst enemy.; A man can do him 4 self more harm than any onp else can do him. Many a man has lost the outer battle he never won the fight with himself. Fight Against Surrender There are two opposite ways in • which we have to battle with ourselves. These correspond to two kinds of temperament, and yet perhaps nd man is entirely free from the need to fight on both these fronts. One is the fight with the drifter in us, the tendency to dream, to drift, to float with the tide, to let other people make all our decisions for us. We are surrounded by a pagan society, and it is not easy to maintain a higher standard. We haven’t the energy to “buck" popular opinion. It takes a great deal of energy, it calls for a fighting heart, to make; headway against the tide of “everybody says," "everybody does." The Christian who know# the harm which alcohol does to personality, the Christian who wants to Five a clean life in this or in other ways, will in many places have to be “made of sterner stuff" than most people are. It is the person who has won a victory over himself who is best able to ’ help others. • • • • Fight for Controb There is another kind of Inner, battle: the fight against our own wills. The other battle was against our lack of will; this is against will itself. We are not born or made in such away that we can ,do whatever we feel like doing and always be right. Indeed if we follow our natural inclinations we may end by being oftener wrong than right. And just as some temperaments lean toJaziness and don’t-care, so other temperaments lean too far the other way. If some people are like putty, others are like gasoline vapor, likely to explode any minute. It may be temper, it may be sex. it may: , be drink, ;it may be selfishness in any one of its countless \forms. We can put It this way: There is in some of us all thfc time, and in all of us some of the time, the urge to shove every one else and i everything else out of the way* and make I WANT the rule of action. Some folks make more friends because they know how to shake bauds.

General Clark Will Retire In October L For East Commander To Quit Army Life

WASHINGTON fP — •Eady speculation on Gen. Mark W. Clark’s successor as United Nations commander centered today on Gens. Maxwell D. Taylor, Bth army comtnander in Korea, and John. E.

He is 57. The four-star general said he hoped his successor would be, in- : stalled by the end at Septeuibe’ , ‘ The Korean political conference, in which the new, U.S*, commander likely will play an important part, is slated to begin within 90 days after July 27, the effective date of the truce. •Military authorities 'Who speculated that Taylor or Hull might .win the Far East assignment assumed that it would go to an army general as i| always has in th? past.

' ) A seven-year-old girl, ready for bed whpn news came that her father yas free, wanted to get dressed and go met him. A relieved mother said bambino is safe," and her husband promised the. “biggest party that Brooklyn ever saw.” There was some heartbreak when the list of 81 names was finished. Thousands qf families prepared to stand the weary vigil again tonight—and as long as uecessary. t , Joy turned to bitter disappointment for the famijy of Cpl. James .A. Kirk Os Malden, W.
