2 The Daily Banner, Greeneastfe, Indiana Saturday, December 18, 1965 Editorial-Wise Please Drive Defensively It is predicted that at least 15 persons will be killed in traffic accidents on Indiana roads during the long Christmas holiday weekend. The National Safety Council predicts that hundreds more will die on the nation’s highways during the same period. These predictions, no doubt, will also hold true for one week later during the long New Year's weekend. Do you remember the past Thanksgiving weekend? Sixteen met death in Indiana traffic and a total of 611 were killed across the United States in these kind of accidents. This is appalling and there seems to be no letup or solution. In the majority of these accidents human error was responsible. Too much speed, misjudging distance especially during the hours of darkness, and in many cases too much drinking. This is an appeal to drive defensively not only during the holidays but every day you are at the wheel of your automobile, truck and yes, your motorcycle. Just remember that the life you save may be your own.

State May Get White Christmas By United Press International There were no indications today for a White Christmas in Indiana, but don't give up your hopes just yet. The long-range forecast for the period ending next Wednesday called for only about one tenth of an inch precipitation in rain or snow. Scattered snow flurries were possible, the weatherman indicated, but more above-normal temperatures apparently will rule out any hopes of the “white stuff’ to stick on the ground. Temperatures Saturday through next Wednesday were expected to average 4 to 6 degrees above normal. That means day-time highs will range from the upper 30’s north to the upper 40 s south and overnight lows from the mid 20’s to the lower 30's. Highs Thursday reached 40 at Evansville and overnight lows
this morning ranged from 28 in the Chicago area to the mid-30’s in Evansville and Louisville

Bible
Thought When the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made ol a woman, made under the law, to redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. Galatians 4:4-5. “Joy to the world! The Lord is come.” But there are unnumbered millions of persons who have not heard the good news, and who are in bondage of spiritual ignorance, moral corruption and godless atheism. Does this not have meaning for our observance of Christmas? What does it say as to our gratitude and our stewardship?

Nm Snowstorm In West States By United Press International A snow-laden storm front worked its way across the center of the nation today, leaving as much as a foot of snow on the ground in some areas. The snow front extended from northern New Mexico to Kansas and was expected to slip into Missouri by tonight. Heading eastward, the storm left more than 14 inches of snow on Flagstaff, Ariz., more than a foot in southeastern Colorado, and six inches in the northwestern comer of Kansas. The snow bank included the Oklahoma and Texas panhand-
les.
South of the snow storm, rain pelted the Texas Gulf Coast and lighter showers hit areas ranging from Arizona to southern Mississippi. Wintry temperatures prevailed over the northern half of the country. The only warm spot early today was Miami, Fla., reporting a 68.

In loving memory of our mother and grandmother, Dessie Greenlee, who passed away 1 year ago, December 19, 1964. December brings sad memories of a loved one gone to rest, You will never be forgotten, by the ones who loved you best. The call was sudden, the shock severe, We little thought such grief was near. Only those who have loved can tell The pain of parting without farewell. And while she rests in peaceful sleep Her memory we shall always keep. The years may wipe out many things, But this they wipe out never, The memories of those happy days When we were all together. Days of sadness still come over us, Hidden tears so often flow, Still sweet memories keep her near us, Though she died a year ago. Mrs. Elsie M. Herbert and family, Mir. and Mrs. Venice Lawrence and family i ’

MARCH OF EVENTS
U.S., RED CHINA TO CONFER AT LAST
LONG OVERDUE STEW MAY EASE TENSION
United Nations
China barely missed out
By HENRY CATHCART Central Press Washington Writer TrTASHINGTON—A long overdue step has been taken by the W United States government toward normalizing the tense international situation that has existed with Red China for
nearly 20 years.
In a break with traditional foreign policy, the TT.S. has agreed to sit at the same conference table with Red China to explore
the possibility of holding a world disamament conference. There are some indications that
China also will agree to attend the talks. The United States and China have con-
ducted intermittent talks in Warsaw, Poland, in recent years, but these have been on an informal basis in which no recognition is im-
plied in the usual diplomatic sense. Undoubtedly, an important factor in the
TT.S. decision was the narrowness of the vote by which China again was barred from entry into the United Nations. Of more importance is the fact that the U.S. policy toward Red China simply has not worked. On the contrary, it is one of the principal sources of in-
ternational friction in the world today. There is an old proverb—probably Chinese—
to the effect that one must learn to walk
before one can run. So it is in diplomacy. First tentative stepe must be taken in order to change a course of international affairs that is unprofitable and unproductive to all concerned. It is to be hoped that China will demonstrate the necessary degree of sincerity in the upcoming exploratory talks to warrant further steps along this path. It is also to be hoped that a demonstration of the profitability of talks will lead to further conversations mi other topics of mutual concern. It could even M the vehicle for ultimate resolution of the conflict in Viet
Nam.

• POLITICAL HUMOR—Humor is a political tool primarily at the disposal of the political party out of power. After all, what more likely subject for kidding is there than the President of the United States. A recent issue of a rather spritely publication, the Republican Congressional Committee Newsletter, geared a bit of humor to President Johnson’s well-known arm-twisting technique. The story is about a congressman who had received a favor from the President and phoned him to say thank you. The President replied: "The pressure is all mine.”

• OVERDONE SECURITY T—Former Treasury Secretary C. Douglas Dillon has a fine house in one of Washington’# most exclusive sections but when he comes to the capital he stays at a hotel. He and his wife love their Washington home and it is
magnificently furnished. They decided not to sell because they couldn’t bear to part with it. The reason they don’t stay in their own house when in town is that they’re literally unable to go near it. It has been so strictly wired against burglary that the slightest disturbance of the system is apt to set off the entire neighborhood.
It’s somewhat like hiding a precious possession so well you
