half hours today following conclusion Sunday of the African-Asian conference at Bandung. Pro-westerners had hailed what they regarded as successes scores against communist maneuvering at the conference. The Pakistani leader, a friend of the United States, said he thought China might release 11 imprisoned American airmen if Peiping thought the United States was anxious to obtain a peaceful settlement of the Formosan problem. All said some evidence of earnestness on both sides was needed to solve the dispute over the Chinese Nationalist-held island. He said he discussed with Chou

the position of Chinese Nationalist leader Generalissimo Chiang KaiShek. "The solution he offered me.” said All, "I thought was quite reasonable.” Communist China has jailed 11 American airmen and two civilians captured during the Korean war. They are accused of espionage and sabotage. In addition. U.S. officials say Peiping is holding tour other U. S. airmen taken during the Korean war. Chou said last Saturday that he was willihg to negotiate directly with the United, States on the Formosa dispute, but reiterated at the closing session his government's right to “liberate” the island. The statement about liberation came after the United States’ State Department asked for: an immediate cease-fire in the For mosa Strait, release of imprisoned U. S airmen. Nationalist China to be seated as equals in any negaT nations, and agreement by Peiping to discuss a ceasefire with the UN Security Council. Ali said today that Chou did not quite believe that the United States had kept the door open in its reply to his offer to negotiate. , With so much distrust generated it would take time to remove suspicions on both sides, but Ali said he did not think there should l>£ much difficulty. ’ ~~ " The Pakistani leader said the Chinese communist viewpoint was that the United States should take the initiative in doing something first. He quoted Chou as -saying “It seems both sides must show some evidence of earnestness.” Ali added-: “But aa was not specific.”

Hsmemaking Tips By Miss Bertha Landis Home Demonstration Agent With the spring weather we’ve been having in Adams county,, hiany are undoubtedly getting the* fever for new clothes. In buying ready-to-wear garments, there are | many things to be considered. If. You want satisfactory service' from that new. spring dress.'cpnsid-j er the fit, style, quality, construe- : |ion and cate, as well as the price* and c(|lor when you make your pur- ! chase? Moderately priced clothesl are available- if you look for them. Try on the garment before you buy it. A well XLUn#-dress will be b&comiiig.. ..ccmfoLiable, and will' wear we’l. If it you correctly. I the shoulders will be wide enough i to let the sleeves fall easily, but nut so-wide as to cause the seams to ba.hg"Bown on your arms. Notice the fit cf the armholes—they should be comfortably - wide but not so deep as to make tire garment wrinkle under the arms. The neckline , should fit smoothly—not bind, or. stand away from the necklineLook for the label to find out the kjnd of fabric and the proper : care yen should give it. Washable” means that it will not shrink out] of fit or fade in the washing. Style' of the dress you purchase should lie suitable in fabric, color and style for the occasions you will,' wear it. * The garment should be cut on the grain of the fabric—collars and cuffs should be symmentrlcal.l Look for generous seams (about one-half to five-eights of an inch wide) sewed with small stitches (about 15-18 per inch) and button-: holes firm and neat. Garments which may be handwashed or washed in the machine are much more practical for homemakers -today. We seldom get i as much wear from a garment which -hirnt be dry-cleaned.
