North Korea is warned
RECTOR FUNERAL HOME AMBUlANCi SERVICE PHONE 01 3-4S10
SEOUL (UPI)- United Nations command officers warned North Korea today against continuing raids in the Demilitarized Zone that have killed eight allied soldiers since Easter. Another American soldier died and three suffered wounds Sunday when a U.S. 2nd Infantry Division patrol engaged in a fierce firefight with North Korean troops east of the Panmunjom truce village. The Communists left three of their own dead on the battleground. It was the fourth North Korean attack in the past eight days reported by the U.N. command. The actions along the zone which divides the two Koreas killed three Americans and five South Korean soldiers and left five Americans and three South Koreans wounded. The U.N. command warned the North Koreans that U.N. forces would take all necessary defensive measures against further provocations. The com-

mand said "immediate cessation of North Korea’s hostile acts is necessary to reduce tension in the Demilitarized Zone.” The command requested a joint investigation of the new incident, but the Communists refused the demand. Informed sources said a meeting of the Korean Armistice Commission probably would be held Tuesday. Officials said the Sunday firefight occurred east of the truce village where the Korean war armistice was negotiated 15 years ago. The announcement said five to eight North Koreans first fired on the American patrol from the other side of the demarcation line, then crossed into the southern portion of the Demilitarized Zone and attacked the patrol. After the gunbattle, the Communists retreated, leaving behind three bodies. Jailbreak foiled MANILA (UPI)—PoUce shot and killed five prisoners today as they attempted to escape from a precinct station in Manila’s Santa Ana district. Police said the prisoners, all suspected of robbery, produced weapons and attempted to shoot their way out of the station.

Telephone walkout enters fourth day
WASHINGTON (UPI) — Despite "meaningful informal discussions” during the weekend, union and management negotia. tions appeared as far apart as ever today, the fourth day of the cross-country telephone strike. So far, telephone service in the 42 states affected by the strike of some 200,000 members of the Communications Workers of America (AFL)CIO) has been almost normal because of automatic dial equipment. Only those calls requiring the assistance of an operator have been delayed and, according to an American Telephone & Telegraph Co. spokesman, even this service was improving as supervisory personnel got accustomed to handling switchboards. Joseph A. Beirne, president of the CWA, said after an eighthour meeting of the union’s executive board Sunday there were no prospects in view for an immediate settlement of the strike.

“Poor people’s march
plans announced
ATLANTA (UPI) — Demonstrators in the "poor people’s campaign,” conceived by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., before he was slain, plan to live in a shanty town of huge tents in "a prominent place” in Washington. The Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC), now headed by the Rev. Ralph Abernathy, King’s successor, announced plans for the Washington campaign Sunday. Abernathy will launch each phase of the three-pronged march to the nation’s capital— from the South, the Midwest and the Northeast.
Designed by King to pressure the Johnson administration and Congress to take action to help the nation’s poor, particularly in Negro ghettos and on tenant farms, the active campaign will begin May 2 at Memphis, Tenn., from the spot at the motel balcony where King was slain by a white sniper April 4. Abernathy will place a memorial plaque on the Lorraine Motel balcony. Abernathy and a delegation of 100 Negroes will lay the groundwork for the campaign next Monday by visiting various government offices in Washing. Continued on Page 4

Beirne reported that during the weekend there were informal discussions among union and management representatives, "But the position of the company in a number of economic and non-economic areas first has to be changed.” Ben S. Gilmer, president of AT& T, said in a statement, "Clearly... there is a point beyond which the companies cannot go without bringing the cost of a settlement to a level that would risk accelerating the already critical inflation facing the country today.” The employes of the Bell Telephone System and Western Electric Co., both AT&T subsidiaries, walked off their jobs last Thursday in a demand for 10.5 per cent wage increase. Their wages now average between $2.88 and $3.27 an hour. The companies have offered increased averaging 6.5 per cent.
Notes Prolonged Strikes "We are gratified to note,” the report said, "that in 66 per cent of the strikes the publisher was able to publish and distribute his newspaper...it is difficult to see room for optimism in the present state of newspaper labor relations when we consider not only the strike activity that has occurred but the prolonged and often abrasive conditions under which contracts have been negotiated without a strike.” Other reports showed 1967 daily newspaper circulation at a high of 61,650,952 and 1967 newspaper advertising at $4.9 billion as compared with a dollar advertising volume of $.29 billion for television, $1 billion for radio, and $1.2 billion for magazines. The traditional opening event of the convention was the annual breakfast for editors and publishers of United Press International. Two veteran UPI newsmen, White House reporter Merriman Smith and Foreign Editor John N. Fallon, struck a common theme—the prediction that there would be prolonged fighting, rather than quick peace, in Vietnam. Fallon said a major battle was expected to begin soon. Won’t Change Mind Smith said he was convinced President Johnson intended to stick by his decision to retire from presidential contention. Clark M. Clifford, in his first public address since becoming secretary of defense, was the feature of the annual Associated Press luncheon. Scheduled to be heard in later sessions were New York Mayor John V. Lindsay David Rockefeller, president of the Chase Manhattan Bank; Senators Everett M. Dirksen, R-Ill., and Stuart Symington, D-Mo., Whitney M. Young Jr., executive director of the National Urban League, and Kenneth J. Brown, president of the Lithographers and Photoengravers Union. ANPA President J. Howard Wood, publisher of the Chicago Tribune, will preside at the general sessions. His two-year term ends Thursday. Scheduled to succeed him is William F. Schmick Jr., president of the Baltimore Sun Newspapers.

Bv HELOISE CRUSE
DEAR FOLKS: We had a screened-in porch with no closed ceiling. The unpainted rafters and beams looked awful. I tried to figure how much it would cost to paint the plywood, beams and rafters to make it look more attractive. But that much paint would cost too much, besides all the labor and difficulty getting up there. Yet our neighbor told me that the porch would be much cooler if we put a ceiling in. So I wutched the sales and bought some matchstick draperies that are ordinarily used for drop-curtains along screcn-ed-in porches. We removed all of the strings and attachments and my husband just stapled them to the 2 x 4 beams going across the porch. They work great to make a “dropped ceiling.” I bought the cheapest PLASTIC ones I could find. They are lightweight and on the ones 1 bought, it said, “mildew and mold-free.” The wooden matchstick draperies don’t say this. So if you are in a tight spot and need to replace a celling, why not try this? It just dawned on me these plastic matchstick draperies would be lovely to use on your den ceiling. I have been in older homes where the paint is peeling on high ceilings and it would cost a fortune to scrape off all of those coats of old paint and replace it. So why not use a staple gun and staple these matchstick draperies to the ceiling? It will do until you feel your budget will allow yoq money to do it like it originally was. You might even find that you like it better. I do. Heloise • * * DEAR HELOISE: Did you know you can take a clean, white pair of canvas shoes and make them any color you want ? Just mix a drop or two of food coloring in white shoe polish and spread on the shoes with a toothbrush. If you want to change the color again, just wash as usual adding a little bleach and the coloring will come light out. Then you can use another color. Earlene Francis * * DEAR HELOISE: Here's one for gals who take flowers to work in their car and have the problem of spilled water or a broken bouquet. I have a little box which fits the hump in the floor of the car and is weighted on both sides. It’s ideal to hold the vase and flowers. No worry about
tipping when turning the comers. Gertrude Utpatel * * * DEAR HELOISE: I have a small canister set made up of one-cup jars of flour, sugar, dry milk, coffee and meal. When I run out of the regular supply by accident, I always have another cupful on the shelf. Every once in a while I put the contents in the regular canisters and put a fresh supply in my emergency set. It’s wonderful to have that extra supply to fall back on in a pinch. Mary Jane • * * And those pinches do come often, don’t they? Heloise * * • DEAR HELOISE: Punch holes in those small foil pie plates. Then tie them on different length cords and hang them in your fruit trees. As the wind blows they spin around and scare the birds away.
