Truck, Car Collide Al Intersection Three Are Slightly Injured Thursday Two persons suffered slight personal injuries in an accident Thursday at 1:45 p.m. three miles south and two miles east of Monroe on «county roads 31 and 16. A truck driven by Elmer C Rich. 46, route one. Berne, and a car driven by Mrs. Clifton Roe, 41. route one, Monroe, collided at an unmarked intersection. A corn field blacked the vision of both drivers, and neither was able to stop in time to avoid the accident. A doctor from Berne was called to the scene of the mishap, and treated both of the injured for slight shock. David Lynn Roe, 5. was taken to a doctor's office in Willshire. 0., for observation Mrs. Roe became quite nervous as a result of the mishap, and accompanied the son to the doctor’s office in Willshire. It was believed that the young boy might have received internal injuries, but this was not confirmed. Both of the above mentioned persons were taken to the Willshire doctor by Mrs. William Reichart, Jr., who lives nearby. Rich received a broken blood vessel in his left knee, and stated that he would have it taken care of after the investigation was completed. Damage to the truck was estimated at $l5O, and the Roe auto received damages estimated at $450 by the investigating officers. The state police and sheriff’s department were called to the scene of the accident. Annual Picnic Held By Bar Association The Adams county bar association held its annual picnic at the D.

Chinese Reds Hint Warsaw Talks Failure Red Chino Indicates Warsaw Talks Fail, Five Days Crucial By WALTER LOGAN United Press International Communist China indicated today the Warsaw talks on the Formosa crisis were doomed to failure, and it appeared the next five days would be crucial ones for -world peace. Moscow Radio broadcast a Chinese Communist report from Warsaw saying there was so far no sign of progress and saying American stubbornes “makes it doubtful whether America is sincere in trying to reach an agreement.” Soviet newspapers did not comment directly on the crisis but headlined a Peiping dispatch saying American maneuvers in Warsaw were doomed, that the United States hoped to bring the talks to, a deadlock and that America was trying to impose its will on Red China by insisting on “absurd proposals.” There was no Communist reaction vet to Secretary of State John Foster Dulles’ New York speech in which he said the United States was ready to negotiate a settlement —and in which he barred an American retreat at Quemoy. Britain fully backed the American insistence that there shall be no use of force in the current conflict. The British also stepped up their own efforts for a negotiated settlement. British Foreign Secretary Selwyn Lloyd was reported trying to provide a forum for fresh SinoAnferican crisis talks in event the Warsaw talks, collapse. British sources said they would be at the foreign minister level but within the United Nations. But Soviet reaction was foreshadowed by the Peiping dispatch which accused Washington of making Ceaseless provocative and threatening declarations. “Thisevokes more and more doubt the United States has a sincere desire to achieve agreement during the talks,” the dispatches said. Moscow Radio also broadcast a similar report from Warsaw by the Chinese Communist New China News Agency. It said American efforts to impose a cease-fire on Red China meant there had been “no hopeful sign of making any progress” at Warsaw. American delegates to the United Nations expressed belief the Warsaw talks may yet succeed. The Americans based this hope on the fact U.S. Ambassador Jacob Beam and Chinese Communist envkiy Wang Ping-nan had agreed to meet again Tuesday. If there had been no 'progress, these U N. sources said. America would have broken off the talks and. dumped the problem on the United Nations. The Warsaw talks are supposed to be secret and there has been ho American statement. But Communist statements indicated both sides were deadlocked and unwilling to give an inch. 225 Pheasants Are Distributed Here Elmer Rich, conservationist of Monroe township, distributed 225 pheasants over the county Thursday as part of the state game program financed by the sale of hunting and fishing licenses. Rich picked up the birds at Coppess Corners from the state game preserve at Bluffton. Jack Hurst, conservation officer who usually makes the distribution, is away at school for a few days.

Many More Cathoik Missionaries Needed Bishop Sheen Cites Need Os Many More By LOUIS CASSELS United Press International American Catholics are sending more missionaries abroad than ever before. But they still aren’t doing as much as they should for “the spiritually underprivileged of the world.” That’s the verdict of Bishop Fulton J. Sheen, who gave up his popular television program last year to devote full time to the task of stimulating a larger U.S. contribution to the global missionary efforts of the Catholic church. Bishop Sheen is national director of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith. He was in Washington, DC., this week to preside over* a three-day meeting of the U.S. Catholic mission secretariat. An official report presented at the meeting showed that there are now 6,124 American Catholic missionaries serving overseas. That is an increase of nearly 1.000 in the past two years. It is nearly three times as many missionaries as the American branch of the church provided in 1940 Some people would say that is a pretty good record for a country which was itself a “mission territory" of the Catholic church only 50 years ago. But Bishop Sheen is not a man for resting on laurels. Even at the present figure, he pointed out, the number of American Catholic missionaries represents “less than 3 per cent of the total number of priests, brothers and sisters in the United States.” “It would be a violation of Catholic spirit,” he said, “to hoard personnel at home when they are so sorely needed in other parts of the world. The superfluities of the rich are the necessities of the poor, even as regards personnel.” As a further antidote for any pride American Catholics may be tempted to feel in their growing missionary force, Bishop Sheen pointed out that they still have a long way to go to “catch up” with American Protestants and European Catholics. About 24,000 American Protestant missionaries are serving abroad. They outnumber American Catholic missionaries, by ratios as high as 3 or 4 to 1, in all major mission fields except the Pacific Ocean slands. To Bishop Sheen, the “most encouraging” development of the past two years was a sharp jump in the number of American Catholic laymen serving as foreign tnissionaries There are now 96 lay missionaries, compared with only 16 in 1956. Two Drivers Fined On Speeding Charges Two motorists charged with speeding appeared in justice of the peace court Thursday night. Both received fines for the offenses after pleading guilty, / Harold W. Dick, 21, route two, Decatur, was arrested Monday by the city police on Mercer avenue for speeding. He was charged with driving 55 miles per hour in a posted zone of 30. A fine of $16.75 was assessed after Dick was found guilty. William G. Savage, 39. Belmer, N.J., was arrested by the state police Thursday on U.S. 27 approximately 61i miles north of Decatur for driving a truck 60 qiiles per hour. He was taken to the justice of the peace court following his arrest and fined $20.75 after pleading guilty to the charge. More than 30,000 handicapped men and women were served by Goodwill Industries, Methodist- related agency, in 1957.
