Trick or Treat One of the fine customs of halloween is the ancient and honorable practice of taking the children door-to-door among your friends and relatives, with the children all dressed up in their costumes, saying, “trick or treat.” Os course everyone has a few “goodies” on hand to pass out, and everyone enjoys seeing the children dressed up, and giving them a treat in the form of candy, apples, pop com balls, or what have you. But in recent years the practice has gotten out of hand. Instead of being limited to the week of halloween, some children have started in September already! And instead of being limited to good friends, neighbors, and relatives, some groups of children range all over town. TTick or treat has become so commercialized that many carry shopping bags to haul home their ‘loot.” This completely destroys the meaning of the holiday. The whole month of October is not halloween. It is one particular day, and just as we do not expect Easter eggs during the entire month before Easter, so we should not expect children in and out of costume, miles from their homes all alone, “foraging” for treats all month. Why not limit halloween trick or treating this year to the week of Oct. 25-31, culminating in the annual calithumpian parade? If we run a good thing into the ground too often, it will lose all significance. Everyone also expects a few good-natured pranks on halloween; and even lanterns on front porches, upset furniture, etc., is expected, more or less. But wanton destruction of property, or the taking of lights from road blockades where someone may well be killed, is completely un-called for. Everyone appreciates a good joke, but jokes which injure or might injure others, loose their humor pretty fast. Damage is often done to property of the older residents of the city who can ill afford the expensive repairs necessary. Most of the younger residents take their breakables inside. Soaping of windows is another “trick” than can be overdone. A little harmless soap on the side windows of cars may be a trick; but heavy soaping of the front or back windows, or the use of wax, which will not wash off, is very dangerous. And tampering with car motors leads to serious accidents—it should never be done. Let’s have a lot of fun this halloween—enjoy the parade and the costumes, pull a few good jokes and pranks, but let’s keep this a safe holiday, with no injuries and no arrests to mar the good feelings. If everyone will take his little brother or sister, or child, or grandchild out for a good time, with the child wearing a pretty costume, then we can all enjoy the fun which results.

No U. S. Reporters At Red Celebration

Editor’s Note: Communist China rejected all applications from American reporters for visas to cover the tenth anniversary of the Peiping regime. The following United Press International dispatch is by special arrangement with the London Daily Express. By CHRISTOPHER DOBSON Copyright 1959 by London Daily Express and United Press International PEIPING (UPD—Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev came quietly and subdued to Peiping. When he stopped out of his huge silver TU-114 at Peiping airport and waved his hat over his head to the clapping crowd that surrounded him, it seemed as if this was going to be the old rambunctious, rough and tumble Mr. K. But he made a quiet speech at the airport, shook hands all round and comported himself as a perfect diplomat. He was matched in style by the grey-tunicked Mao Tse-tung,’ as cool and imperturbable as only a Chinese can be—if anything, he is more unflappable than British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan. Khrushchev, I thought, looked a little 'weary. He has had a gruelling time in these past two weeks. Certainly Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, who arrived with him, looks as tired a foreign minister as ever I have seen. Chinese Poured Past Wednesday night I was a guest at a fabulous banquet given by the Chinese leaders for Khrushchev in the huge New Congress Hall. It was a velvet blue evening following an afternoon of violent thunderstorms. Cars bearing diplomats and the world's top Communists drew up in what must surely be the world's largest public square. Streams of Chinese poured past on their bicycles, and old Chinese women, their feet tiny and crippled from the binding ritual performed in the old days, held their grandchildren up to see the foreign visitors —people who not so very long ago were “foreign devils.” Wednesday night, in Congress Hall which completely dwarfs the old Imperial Palace which used to dominate this area, it was completely different. Spoke Moderately Here, in a huge dining room, 5,000 persons sat down to eat exquisite Chinese food and drink toasts in rice wine. Chou En-lai made the first speech. Cool and restrained he made a moderate speech in which he congratulated Khrushchev “on

the success of his visit to the United States and of the talks he had with President Eisenhower of the United States.” Western diplomats were pleasantly surprised by Chou’s approval of the communique. Hopes were raised that possibly this might mean the beginning of some sort of accommodation between the United States and China.
