INDICATE (Continued from page one) munism and democracy as ’the No. 1 listening post for Europe and the Middle East.” Free World Is Target Zurich, Switzerland’s largest . city, and Geneva, seat of many j international conferences, have 1 become with Bern the physical , contact points nor Red agents < oprating in the Middle East, France, Western Germany, Brit- ] ain, Spain, Portugal and Italy. i “Their target is the free world, i and they load up their ammuni- i tion in Zurich, Geneva and Bern,” ; Taylor said. Here the agents come to make 1 reports and to receive orders for < future activities and faked creden- < tials for implementing them. Transfer of currencies from the i issue of one nation to that of an- i other is facilitated, since Switzer- j land has recognized not only the Western powers and Russia but i also the* latter’s satellites includ- < ing Red China and Bulgaria. Hie I United States recognizes neither < of the latter. Both are heavily i represented in Bern. ' < A second reason the transfer of spy activities was advantageous to the Reds is because of Switzerland’s central location as the hub . of a complex of modern rail and airlines fanning out in all directions. Zurich’s Kloton Airport has one of the heaviest year-round traffic loads in all Europe, with direct daily schedules to Moscow via a change of airlines in Prague. Careful Os Laws The secondary route for Soviet exchange, equally fast and regular, is via the Vienna gateway. No Russian airline or aircraft is permitted to fly into Switzerlnd itself, where national feeling appears to be solidly anti-Commu-nist. Switzerland is the apex of the triangle and equally accessible from all parts of the Arab world, which itself spreads over a distance equal to that from Hawaii to Bermuda. Many Arab capitals are closer to Bern than to each other. “The Communists have operated with a careful eye to the strict Swiss laws against espionage,” this reporter was told in Zurich, “even while they secretly abuse the fundamental laws protecting freedom of the individual. “Hie gathering place for agents and principals, and the ‘cashiers office’ for payments is rotated among the various satellite embassies and missions in Bern. “Important gatherings of Com 7 rriunist agents seldom are held ta the large embassy of the U.S.S.R. itself. The Kremlin doesn’t want to take a chance on an upset or arrest that will directly reflect on the U.S.S.R. Big And Costly “They plant their agents in their international conference delegations under all kinds of covers, paint them off as chauffeurs of the Red ambassador’s cars in Bern, which gives them a good run of the country and in other ways rotates their contacts con stantly.” This correspondent recalled that in the first atomic bomb testing at Bikini, which was opened to selected professional newspapermen from al nations of the world, the Russian “journalist” by his own admission turned out to be the commanding officer of the Bureau of Docks and Yards for the Red navy. The Communist intelligence web centering in Bern is an enormous and expensive operation and calls for large-scale measures in coun-ter-espionage by all the Western powers, Ambassador Taylor said. None of this intensifying activity between the world’s major opposing forces is visible to the nathousands of seasonal tourists. Yet the cold war is very hot here indeed and much which breaks from the four corners of the world has its real start in • Bern. Trim young Swiss soldiers everywhere — Switzerland’s ready army of 604,000 is the largest in Western Europe — create a feeling that the nation’s tranquillity and neutrality are not to be lightly challenged. None of the activity of spying and counterspying is allowed to touch Switzerland it- . .self. A Growing Problem Tourists throng the lake excursion boats, the buses bound for the chalets at snow-line of the tnany Alpine peaks, take leisurely tea on die terraces of hotels or stroll the streets of the.old cities, unaware of the growing army of secret averts among them. But to Ambassador Taylor it is a "growing and relentless problem, for the security of the United States is at stake.” • In Zurich I asked if the supply of fraudulent passports and documents from Prague was a serious menace to the Western nations. My informants said: “They worried us for a while. The counterfeits are excellent; often only a laboratory test of the paper itself will show it to be imitation. “Wp have evolved countermeasures of our own which are not ineffectual. Frequently, for reasons of our own, we permit known or suspected,agents to enter Western nations and even expedtie the work thy are attempting.

“Often our own men travel with them. And in such countef-spy operations are the unsung heroes of the cold war. “The Communist spy control has a great deal of ego, and we are not adverse to helping build it up.” LLOYD (Continued from page one) Administration officials described as bluster and propaganda Moscow’s assertion that it will “take necessary measures” unless American Marines are pulled out of Lebanon “at once.” There has been no official reply as yet to the Soviet blast, contained in a statement handed the U.S. ambassador in Moscow Wednesday. Officials said it had not been formally received here. The belief in official quarters here, despite President Eisnhower’s acknowledgement that Western military action might have “grave consequences,” was that the Russians would not risk war in the Middle East to counter the American and British moves. There was no immediate comment from the State Department on Russia’s announcement early today it will hold military maneuvers on its Iranian and Transcaucasion borders, starting Friday. SIDEWALK (Continued from Page one) . songs to the latest rock and roll numbers for the delight of the teenagers. Hundreds of viewers were on hand to watch the local teenagers dance to the music played by Underwood and assisted by Cal Stewart, another popular WOWO personality. The ’hop’ lasted from 8 to 11 o’clock on the main street to wind up the “old fashioned sidewalk sale jubilee” for this year. The entire sale was a great success, and probably will be made an annual affair. The city police department received the well-deserved thanks from the Chamber of Commerce for controlling the traffic at the busy intersection of Second and Monroe streets. Two Autos Collide Wednesday Evening The Decatur police department investigated an accident on East Monroe street at 7:15 p.m. Wednesday. Involved in the two car accident were Anita M. Gehrig, 30, DeCatur, and John Stephen Gass, 23, route five, Decatur. The Gehrig auto attempted to make a right turn into the A. and P. parking lot off Monroe street when the Gass vehicle struck the auto from the rear. Damage was estimated at SIOO to the Gehrig cat and $l5O to the Gas vehtele. Trade in a good town — Decatur.

Hearing Opened On Conservancy Plans Seek Flood Control Along Upper Wabash Hearings began in Celina, 0., Wednesday on the Wabash- con servancy district for Darke and Mercer counties, to provide a legal organization to help control floods on the uper Wabash river. Crop losses of from 25-100% were described by an overflow audience of faripers in the county courtroom. Much interest has been -shown locally in the Ohio situation, as the possibiltiy of action on the Wabash river basin in Adams county grows. The following article, by Bill Barkley in the Celina Daily Standard, shows what has happened there: , < “Judge Huber Berry opened the session by stating that all objections to the proposed conservancy district had to be filed in writing prior to the end of today’s session. No objections had been filed by 11:30 a. m. John Hinders opened his plea with a list of evidence he and the petitioners planned to present for the court’s consideration: 1. The purposes of law 6101 of the Ohio revised code, and how they can best be served by establishing the district. 2. Testimony of interested land owners. 3. Evidence from the local soil conservation service and the Mercer county engineer, B. R. Gebhart. 4. Technical aspects of the job of reducing floods and soil erosion. z 5. Evidence showing that the benefits from the district will exceed the cost of the project. The first witness called by Hinders was Chester Brock who has farmed 109 acres of land at the headwater of the Wabash river for 37 years. The attorney asked Brock what his experience has been with floods in the last three years. He answered in part that he had suffered more from the floods during this period than at any other time. j Brock stated that in 1932, a short section near the river’s source was dredged, and the farmers in his neighborhood had a fairly decent outlet for the drainage tile. But. he said that with additional tiles emptying into the stream and the rain in the last thre years, things i have been rough. He said that his 24 inch drain tile stands in 20 inchi es of water, leaving only four inches exposed. - He said that his average crop >' loss in the last fen years has beenl ; aproximafely 25 percent, ahd i n r the past three year period, it has ben about 35 percent. John Kremer, the second witness and the chairman of the •. board of supervisors of the Darke county conservation district, also reported similar conditions oh his farm downstream. He said that as chairman of the board, he and others met with the county commissioners of Mercer and Darke I counties, and they told the farm- - ers that the best way to handle ’r the problems of the river was to k petition for a conservancy district.

An estimated average annual planting cost loss of $2,500 was reported by W. J. Dull of Cranberry Prairie. He said that this covers a 10 year period, but the total loss in the last three years which have sufered the worst from flooding was reported by Dull at $25.000. He reported that in his 31 years in the area, the flooding and erosion problem has been ever present. He said that a few years back, another action to control the river was taken, but it was defeated since the losses and benefits did not apear to balance the cost of taking action. But. the damage from the water during the last three years has changed people’s minds, and they would most likely favor the conservancy district, he said. Hinders said that the other landowners he had for the district would merely add to what had been said, and asked if the judges wished to hear any more. They declined, and Loren Carey, soil conservation service in Celina, I took the stand. He stated that crop damage in the watershed ranges from 25-100 percent. He recommended certain

; soil conservation practices to keep the rain where it falls and other - propects to control the river. Coe operating in the use of good cone servation methods in the water--0 shed area, are some 200 farmers, s he said. s B. R. Gebhart. Mercer coun--1 ty enginees and formerly with the ’ local soil conservation office, state ed that a project was studied in - 1945. The program brought an e estimate of SIOO,OOO to deepen and > widen the stream. There was no • thought of control dams, and the matter was handled in the same manner as any ditch petition. In his opinion, something must be done to maintain the capital worth of the farms in the area. Pictures of the flooding in the watershed on June 28 and 29 last year were presented to the court by Robert Layton, area engineer of the Soil Conservation Service form Wapakoneta. Norton Alger, Deputy State Conservationist of the U. S. conservation office in Columbus, stated that the federal law. P. L. 566, recognizes the national menace of flooding and the need for federal and state participation and cooperation with local people and governing units to control, prevent, and reduce flod damage. He said the federal government will participate in flood control of areas up to 250,000 acres in size. A five minute recess was called at 11:30, and further news of the court’s action which is expected to be completed this afternoon will appear in tomorrow’s edition.’ SENATE (Continue* from Puga one) Congress and "protect” the agency itself if a continuing review were set up.
