Red China Diverts Propaganda Funds Economic Campaign In Southeast Asia BANGKOK (INS) — Authoritative diplomatic quarters disc.loaed * today that Red China has diverted propaganda funds into economic channels within the past six months in a new campaign to subvert southeast Asia. The new Communist “economic penetration” campaign was described as highly’effective among- —' Chinese residents of southeast Aslis nations and lower income, southeast Asians. . The sources said the Red program works this way: 1. Funds formerly used for radio, leaflet and other propaganda purposes are channelled into certain basic industries. 2. Products produced with this government subsidy are sent to southeast Asian countries, normally through Hong Kong, and offered in competition with British, Japanese and other similar goods, but at much reduced prices. 1 Money from sales in the lous southeast Assian countries is then used locally to support subversion and infiltration. The Communists, diplomatic sources pointed out, are thus presenting a friendly face by not blatantly propagandizing, are winning admission and acceptance in new southeast Asian markets, and are at the same time supporting insidious internal subversion. Missing Cadet's Mother Has Hope 1 MANSFIEuD, O. (INS) — It was six years ago that West Point Cadet Richard Cox told his roommate he was going to meet "a fellow named George,” then vanished mysteriously into the world of missing persons. But his mother. Mrs. Rupert F. Cox of Mansfield clings firmly to her belief that somehow, somewhere, her son will be found. Once a year, the Criminal Investigation Division contacts her to report that no new clues have been found. , i Since his disappearance the CID has cheeked out numerous tips that Richard had been seen — in Washington, at a summer resort in Michigan, in Tijuana, Mexico, at his old command post in Germany, in Alaska. Npthing has yielded a lead. “Even at the end of seven years when he is declared legally dead,” Mrs. Cox said recently, ”1 will eon- > tinue to believe that Dick is alive and that we’ll find him.” EIGHT MEMBER „ iCoi'tlnufff fruit Paxe Although he favors a “through” investigation of the entire lobbying problem, George said that he could not and would not participate In any lengthy inpuh-y into the situation because of the pressure of other businessSen.

JIM \ H Four Os Teen-Ager Gang Under Arrest Evansville Police Seek Six Others EVANSVILLE, Ind. (INS) — Evansville police today held four members of a teen-age gang who called themselves the Gondola Dukes, and hunted for an estimated six more members. Detectives unraveled .jem incredible story of a gang of some 10 boys who took over a row of abandoned houses for their domain and conducted some 350 admitted car ransackinga and robbed a supermarket after staging a two-hour party in it. The boys were being questioned today about some 30 other robberies in addition to the one in the supermarket, from which they wheeled a grocery cart full of stolen fodo. beer and wine along a main street to their hideout. Police raided one of the supposedly empty houses which had been purchased by the Indiana state highway department in preparation for destruction to clear the way for an expressway on Ind. 62 in Evansville.

The gang adopted its name because its members bitched rides on empty coal gondolas and rode out tdf'W area near the Dress airport and nearby industrial plants where many cars are parked. The Gondola Dukes admitted about 350 cars had been ransacked by them, One boy also told surprised detectives that the gang staged a party In the A&P supermarket Sunday, walking freely about the store, opening beer, slicing meat and opening buns for sandwiches.
