At the same time, the rebel radio called on the U.S. embassy and the Inter-American Press Assn, for help in getting an American reporter- photographer team back to civilization. One of the newsmen was identified as Pat Farley Zopane, of Fort Lauderdale, Fla. The insurgent broadcast said the two Americans cannot leave the rebel-held hills “because their arrest has been ordered.’' The report was denied by police in Cienfuegos, the city through which the Americans entered the hills. “They can come down anytime they want, just the way they went up,” a police spokesman said. Earlier, the rebel radio had launched a bitter attack on the United States, accusing Ambassador Earl E.T. Smith of “meddling” in Cuban affairs. “Enough is enough,” a rebel announcer said. “We are tired of being branded as Communists by the American State Department. If any (U.S.) Marines land on Cuban soil, they will be fought the same as (President Fulgencio) Batista’s soldiers.”

Says Many Unsafe Schools In Nation Association Head Expresses Sympathy WASHINGTON (UPD — Dr. William Carr Jr., executive secretary of the National Education Assn., said today there are “a large number of unsafe schools in the nation.” Carr, whose organization .has led a fight for more adequate schools and federal aid for school construction, learned of the Chicago school tragedy from United Press International in Salt Lake City, Utah. Carr did nbt elaborate on other unsafe schools or £ive any figures. He voiced “profound sympathy” for the parents, studerits and teachers caught in the Chicago disaster and paid tribute to the “gallant conduct” of the teachers at (the school. > U.S. Education Commissioner Lawrence G. Derthick said his agency was ready to help in any way possible to avert similar future tragedies. Official Washington, accustomed to worrying about international crises and political battles, was staggered by news of the parochial school conflagration and its heavy toll in children’s lives. Even normally undemonstrative FBI officials, disclosing they had offered their full facilities to help local authorities uncover the cause of the fire, blurted out “horrible” and “awful” in talking to a reporter. v Derthick. who first learned of the extent of the tragedy from United Press International, said: “It’s horrible beyond words to imagine. This will shock the whole country.” Also apparent in official quarters was a sense of helplessness—a questioning of. “What can we do about it?” ‘"What could we have done that we didn’t do?" Derthick and officials of his agency said the federal govern-

ment has no supervision over school safety standards, although the U.S. Office Os Education has participated in conferences which recommended standards to local authorities. The agency itself has published two pamphlets on ■ school fire safety" and , “school fire exit drills." Asked if/the Office of Education might take further steps in the wake of the Chicago tragedy, Derthick replied, “We are ready to help out in any way we can; if called upon to make a study with promise of good results, we would undertake it.” U. S. Housewives Aid Disease Fighl Over $175 Million Raised This Year By GAY PAULEY’ UPI Women’s Editor NEW YORK (UPD—The Amer ican people are on a never-end-ing search for health that is equalled nowhere else in the world, thanks largely to the efforts of a tireless army of housewives. — In cities, towns and villages across the country, whenever the cry goes out for money to fight polio, cancer or other diseases, women drop their dust cloths and crooms and go out to ring doorTtiey may not know the difference between a laboratory test bells and collect what is needed, tabe and a Bunsen burner, but they do know about the ravages of various killing diseases. This year alone, more than 175 million dollars in being raised for major national health projects ranging from palsy to cancer. Many more millions are being collected for research and treatment in less important health fields. Still other millions are being solicited for local 'health and welfare work. The grand total is something like six billion dollars. Army of Volunteers Most of the fund raising is done by a vast army of volunteers estimated at a full strength of more than 27 million and most of the workers are women. Dr. Daniel Dodson, chairman of the New York University Department of Human Relati ons, summed up the participation of women, particularly club women, ip the promotion of health for al citizens. He said that nowhere else in the world are there people who Voluntarily support medical research, treatment and rehabilitation to the extent American peopie do. Other countries rely on their governments. In the U.S., the government does its part, but so do the private citizens. Many college, university and hospital research projects are financed solely with the nickels, dimes, quarters and dollars [ housewives collect on their rounds. It was the annual “March of- Dimes” that produced the Salk polio vaccine. Foundation of Democracy ! “I would not for a moment discount the importance of voluntary participation and involvement. Dr. Dodson says. “In many respects, this is the foundation on which democracy is based. “No government could afford the services to its peoples which we Americans provide through voluntary activity. “I would contend that the wellsprings of democracy are in these autonomous organizations which surfeit our communities, Dr. Dodson said of the junior leagues, ; women’s clubs and other groups providing the nucleus of fund raisers. “Here is the cradle of leadership training. People with local concerns become involved. They study their problems, they learn how to werk with others. They find they must reflect on what they did wrong, when their plans failed. “They stretch their own conceptions of self as they gain confidence in leading. “When it is realized that in the social welfare field alone, wme 27 million people serve as volunteers, one gets the sweep of such involvement.” Richmond Man Dies Os Traffic Hurts RICHMOND, Ind. (UPD —Darnell L. Lewis, 23, Richmond, died today in Reid Memorial Hospital of injuries suffered Nov. 25 when his car hit a tree along a Richmond street.

Diamonds Stolen From Hotel Vault Million And Half In Diamonds Taken CHICAGO (UPD — FBI agents hunted today for $1,500,000 worth of damonds, missing from the supposedly “inaccessible” vault of a downtown hotel. Lt. Charles Pierson of the police burglary squad said it looked like a “good gang of jewel thieves” was behind the theft. Diamond salesman Charles Stager said he first missed the gems Monday, when he went to the vault to put in another halfmillion dollars’ worth. Stager is 6n employe of the New York diamond brokerage firm of Harry Winston & Co. It was Winston who recently donated the famed Hope diamond, valued at one million dollars, to the Smithsonian Institution in Washington. The 44 carat diamond was sent safely from New York to Washington through the mails. Stager said the missing jewels were diamonds intended for wealthy individuals, seeking appropriate gift pieces. Richard D. Auerbach, agent in charge of the FBl’s Chicago office, said he and his men were fuly investigating the theft. There was no sign of forcible entry to the Pick-Congress Hotel’s walk-in vault, inaccessible to the public. Pierson said that Stager had the only key to his jewel case. Stager said he last examined the missing diamonds Sunday afternoon, when he showed them to prospective buyers. Stager is a brother-in-law of Albert Pick Jr., president of the corporation which owns the hotel. Reach Critical Stage For Nuclear Plane Scores Inaction Os Ike Administration WASHINGTON (UPD — Chairman Melvin Price (D-Ill.) of the joint congressional atomic research subcommittee disclosed today U.S. scientists have reached ■“a critical stage” in development of a nuclear-powered plane. He said the United States is in a position “to push forward vigorously to a successful conclusion” of the program. He added that "the nation can ill afford further delay and indecision” on the multi-million dollar project. Such delay, he declared, would mean forfeiting “once again our technological leadership.”

OOBKTJjfIB i., UK J: —. l. THE GAY TYROLIERS

The Tyroliers, who are being brought to Decatur, Tuesday Dec. 9, by the Adams County Civic Music Asso., come from the little village of Kitzbuhel, in the Austrian Tryol, one of Europe’s most famous playgrounds. Heading this distinquished company of 16 singers, dancers and musicians from this picturesque old town of Kitzbuhel in the Brixer Valley is Toni Praxmair, owner of the famous Inn in KitzbuheL Presenting the authentic native culture of their Alpine region, handed down through generations from father to son, the Tyroliers are completely unique, for while theirs is highly developed talent, they are not “professional” in the strict sense of that word. One member of the company is a bank clerk, another a woodcarver, yet another a photographer. There is a tailor, a ski instructor and a

Ike To Return To Washington Today Preparing For New Congress Session AUGUSTA, Ga. (UPD—A jaunty President Eisenhower shifts his base of operations back to Washington today to prepare for the new session of Congress. The Chief Executive, ruddy and ful of pep after 13 days of golf and only the most necessary work was scheduled to take off for Washington about midafternoon. He planned to be back at the White House in time for a quick look at the mail and accumulated paperwork before dinner. Friends of the President at the Augusta National Golf Club said the Chief Executive was ig ebullient spirits as he prepared to leave one of his favorite golf courses for the confines of the White House during most of December. The days between now and the end of January constitute just about the busiest period of the year for Eisenhower as he sets his legislative program for the

mountain guide. They have known these songs and dance* since childhood. , The Tyroliers present a varied program of some 40 minutes which includes choral songs and dances, yodelling songs, zither solos, gusty band selections and picturesque free-for-alls based on traditional customs. The program is divided into three parts, representing the merry-making of the seasons of spring, summer and autumn. Many of the songs and dances are connected with the peasants’ work, such as the woodcutters’ dance and the cow-milking song. Symbolic of the ancient belief in spirts is the stilt dance in which the boys drive out winter—an old witch—to make way for spring—a young girl. But in the main the program is gay, full of carefree singing, brilliant yodelling and wonderful dancing.

The spadework on the administration program for the new and heavily Democratic Congress has been done —much of it while the President was in Georgia—and the Chief Executive will return to a period of important conferences and final decisions.
