Chiang Warns Against Easing j Red China Ban Opposes Relaxing Os Goods Embargo Against Red China TAIPEI (UP) — Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek warned the United States and Britain today they ‘will be helping to defeat themselves” if they relax the strategic goods embargo against Communist China. The Nationalist Chinese president told United Press in an exclusive interview that any ease-up on the embargo “would be helping the Chinese Communists pull their chestnuts out of the fire.” Chiang termed Communist peace rumors "groundless” and denied Red Chinese Premier Chou Enlai's charge that the United States has turned Formosa into a dependency. “Their (the Communist) idea is to arouse anti-American feelings among Chinese on the mainland,” Chiang said. - He said Communist China “is in desperate need of help. They are just now beginning to feel the effects of the embargo that began during the Korean War.” Chiang hoped that President Elsenhower and British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan, meeting at Bermuda, would realize “that any relaxation now would undo all that we have accomplished in six years of the embargo.” Britain’s desire to relax the ban and promote'trade with Red China is one of the points which Macmillan reportedly wants to discuss with Mr. Eisenhower. But Chiang said if the Western powers do this “it will help the Communists to survive. They will be playing into the Communists’ hands and will be helping to defeat themselves.” Chiang, speaking through an interpreter, said the very existence of his Nationalist government on this island stronghold “is a mortal threat to the Communists, They feel it, but can do nothing about it.” “They ire spreading groundless rumors (of peace talks with Formosa). These rumors are not true. They are designed to quiet the people on the mainland before whom the Communists have been dangling the hope that they will liberate’ Taiwan (Formosa).” Continues Move To Block Silberstein Move Is Continued By Federal Judge CHICAGO iff) — A federal judge today continued until Monday a move by Fairbanks, Morse & Co. to block Leopold D.

Search Vainly For Bomb In Courtroom Second Bomb Scare In Court In London LONDON (UP)—-Police searched vainly for a bomb today in the courtroom where Dr. John Bodkin Adams is being tried for murder for profit. It was me second bomb scare in a week in the Old Bajjey criminal court and the only flash of excitement in a morning in whjch: —The defense scored several more points. —The prosecution suggested alterations had been made in a nurses' log book which has figured prominently in the case. Adams has pleaded innocent to a charge that he used poison to murder 81-year-old Mrs. Edith Alice Morrell, one of his many wealthy patients at the seaside ■ resort of Eastbourne, in order to i inherit a Rolls Royce car and a chest of silver. i Chief Defense Counsel Geoffrey . Lawrence has used the nurses' log book effectively in trying to dis- . credit testimony given by crown , witnesses from memory. The log book contains entries made in Mrs. Morrell's case up to the time of her death on Nov. 13, 1950. Lawrence has drawn out through cross-examination that these entries differed from statements made by the nurses. Before Lawrence resumed his cross-examination this morning of nurse Caroline Randall, who had attended Mrs. Morrell, Atty. Gen. Sir Reginald Manningham - Buller drew from the witness a statement that in the last days of her life Mrs. Morrell had been getting an increased amount of narcotics.

I.U. Student Group Fights Assessment Legal Loopholes Soukht By Pupils BLOOMINGTON, Ind. Iff) — A student group considered hiring lawyers and sought legal loopholes today to fight Monroe county assessor Frank Borland in his campaign to levy property taxes on the possessions of Indiana University students. Roger Chase, a freshman who heads the Student Committee for the Rejection of Taxation, said his group would operate openly and shun a move by another group to boycott Bloomington merchants in protest over Borland's campaign. “We are trying to find legal loopholes rather than try to apply pressure locally,” Chase said. Chase said one loophole may be that most students are dependents and the property they have actually "belongs to their parents.” Meanwhile, Borland Arent ahead with plans to assess television sets, typewriters and automobiles of students. He said assessors would ignore property when students can prove it was assessed for taxation in another county. Eighty students “representing most of the housing groups on campus” attended a meeting of the committee Wednesday night, Chase said. Another group known as the "All-Campus Anti-Tax Committee” threatened a merchant boycott, but the Bloomington Chamber of Commerce protested that such, action would only hurt small business and cause a rift in studentcommunity relations. Latest example of student-com-munity relations was a campaign in which 200 men students of three social fraternities raised $2,546.53 to build an animal shelter for the Monroe County Humane Association. The fraternity men raised' the money in campus collections, door-to-door solicitations and a downtown street corner appeal.

Says Parents Musi Prepare Children Role Os Parents In Preparing Children MILWAUKEE (UP)—A student chaplain said today parents must prepare their children to hold together in marriage and family life or “it will be permanently sabotaged.” • The Rev. Alexander Sigor of the Catholic student center, Lafayette, La., said the “greatest role" parents can take is "becoming and remaining true to their own role as husband and wife.” The priest told the National Catholic Family Life convention that parents' ‘‘must provide the pattern of character integrity, personality fulfillment, individual and family stability which radiates far more effectively than all other education.” ' Most of today's discussion was aimed at the role <of parents in preparing their children for the adulthood. Father Richard Doherty, director of the Family Life Bureau for the archdiocese of St. Paul, Minn., said the family is the “natural training ground for children." But, studies of juvenile delinquents show, he said, parents have shifted their responsibilities from themselves to the school. This results, he said, in the “absence of proper home conditions and of proper home education and training by the parents.” A parent’s “very vocation, their state of life,” he said, should be “directed to the education and formation of their offspring." The Rev. Charles A. Curran of Loyola University, Chicago, said the “inadequacies and confusions” of college youth were the fault of a home “which failed to provide a workable scale of personal values and give the student reasonable Wednesday, the Rev. Dennis J. Geany, Rockford, 111., called the American high school senior prom a “teen-age rebellion” that is “highly organized and highly approved.” He said the annual prom “becomes a Monaco extravaganza” in spite of school and parental attempts to keep it within reasonable limits. Hoover Cites U.S Inflation Danger Greatest Danger To Nation Is Inflation MIAMI BEACH, Fla. W - Former President Hoover said Wednesday night the greatest danger to the nation at this time is inflation. The 82-year-old statesman said taxpayers are “groaning” over . government spending. Fressure l groups must be made to lay off I Congress so the government can reduce its huge money outlay, he said. Mr. Hoover, here for a threeweek rest and some fishing in the Florida Keys, said, “The purchasing power of the dollar is down every month.” If the public will take some of the “special interest groups’ pressures off Congress," he said, then the nation's lawmakers might have a better chance to reduce the spending program. The former President also called for congressional approval of recommendation of the nonpartisan Hoover Commission for streamlining and modernizing government operations. Mr. Hoover said the recommendations would save billions of dollars. If you have something to sell or rooms for rent, try a Democrat Want Ad — they bring results.
