Another Trick It now appears evident that publication of the list, whether accurate or not, was another communist trick and that the communist objective remains the same to gam across the conference table the victory they could not gain by force of arms. The communists continue to demand the right to construct new military airfields in North Korea fields from which their jets and bombers could strike in force and without warning in the midst of a so-called truce. And the reds say that in any exchange of prisoners, all prisoners taken by the UN must be returned to them, regardless of personal wishes. Meanwhile, the reds refuse to deal with the International Red Cross and refuse to mark their own prisoiwr-of-war camps which admittedly are located alongside prime military targets.

Vice Admiral C. Turner Joy, the UN's chief negotiator, gives this discouraging summary: "Either (there must be) a sudden voluntary change of heart on the part of the communists, or (the United Nations muft apply) suffciient military power to induce a change of heart." tor. Mr. Anderson, 86, ha lived In Folk county almost 70 year and had been mortician and furniture dealer at Stronwbtirg nearly 45 years. He had a store in Iolk when that town was first established, later joining it with his Stromsburg business.

When the Korean peace negotiations began last July it was suspected that the reds were counting on well kaowB American impa tience to gain them a victory that the hue and cry at home would force American negotiators into a "peace at any Their immediate objective failed. The Americans were fully as tough as they. The American CI and his UN companions in the line have been another disappointment to the reds. Great Army No one wants to be the last man to die In any war. And the American is no exception.

But a reluctance to die has not affected the fighting qualities of the Eighth army in Korea. This correspondent returned to the United States last October after nearly ytr of reporting the war from Korea and Japan. I can report that the Eighth Army is the finest small army in the world with a high morale that has been untouched by the worst the reds could do. Many of the men In the line have damned the so-eailed peace talks from the beginning, aaying, "let's go ahead and finish the job." Today, the fighting men seldom think of or mention the negotiations dragging on and on at Panmunjom. The last lew weeks have seen a hew tactic in the communist war of nerves, and probably the crudest they have yet undertaken.

In November the communists announced the names of 3,198 American prisoners of war they claimed to hold. The list was pitifully small when compared to the number known to be missing but it raised the hope in. thousands UNITED INCOMI FUND Bid $12.43 Asked $13.51 UNITIO SCIINCI FUND Bid $6.30 Asked $6.89 EDWIN A.

Replace Broken Windows Nowl 9x1 also appeared before the highway scientists. Dr. Robert H. Peckham of the Temple University School of Medicine advocated the use of sunglasses for daytime driving. If you don't, he said, you'd better cut down your night driving speed by 10 to 20 miles an hour.

The glare of the sun somehow cuts down on the normal nigat vision, he said. Church Members Oppose Racing MEMPHIS, Jan. 22 Ut Church members of nine denom- inations prayed in relays through the night for defeat at the polls today of a move to establish an aeross-the-rtver horse racing track. "We're here to pray to the greatest election judge of all," the Rev. J.

E. Beckum of Memphis' South Side church of the Nazarene told his followers. "May God damn the souls of the evil people who sought to bring gambling and all the other evils that go with a race track into the community just across the river," prayed the Rev. J. E.

Hamill of the Assembly of God First Church. Crittenden County, voters decide today in a referendum whe ther they want pan-mutuel racing in West Memphis, across the new Memphis-Arkansas bridge that spans the Mississippi. A few hours before the prayer services began at i p.m. (CST) last night in the new, million-dollar First Baptist church here, the Arkansas Racnig Commission met in Little Rock and revoked a franchise granted Dixie Downs, for the track. However, backers of the track including of tjie east Arkansas Delta country's most well-to-do planters and businessmen were reported ready to flghV the commission's reversal in court.

NICHOLS WASHINGTON night-mare of many motorists in the thought of bitting a tike on bike. 1 In the daytime you can see the 'kids, but at night the danger multiplied. Perhaps better reflectors on the hind end of bicycles might save 'same lives, but boys will be boys and ride along in the dark.

A. R. Lauer, director of the Iowa State College driving: research laboratory at Ames, had ome-f thing to say on the subject of 'night driving in particular and youngsters on bikes in general. "Be Careful" The substance of his remarks before highway scientists convening here was "be careful." That, he said, goes for chasing bike or running too clone to the ear ahead. "Night-time motorists can 'gee' another car or even a bicycle out- lined with reflective sheeting 70 per cent faster than one that is non-refleetorteed." Lauer, who has spent a year of research on the subfect, sav that a great percentage of the accidents at night come from rear-end colli-, i sions.

Lauer conducted 2,520 tests In 1 the study of the effect of speed on i Judgment of distance between i moving vehicles on roads at night. He said that the only fatal am dent that has occurred in the first 1 30,000,000 vehicle-miles on the New Jersey turnpike (called the "safest in the was due to a car -colliding with the rear end of 9i Maciur-Linuei' wiiiuii wui muv ting off the shoulder of the high way onto the road. It happened rat night. "Trucking companies which I have reflectorlzed the rear-end of their vehicles report they have vlr "tualiy eliminated such collisions, Lauer said. Mere Stopping Space The safety expert saya that his studies show that when a driver approaches a stalled truck at 50 miles an hour he will see it a full second quicker if the truck has a bright reflector at the rear.

Thus, the driver has about 73 more feet 5 of "stopping space." That much margin could prevent a lot of ac- Scldents. The stuff that Is used in the newest reflectorized rear-ending Is called "scotchlite" sheeting and fabric. Applied to the rear of a motor vehicle it outlines the shape of the car. Some truck companies have lessened the hazards of night driving by commercialism, Like placing the company ad on the back of their trucks. It can be applied to traffic signs, also.

Eisenhower's response to an interesting question' raised by Sen. Robert A. Taft was comment." The question was whether the general would support the senator for president if the senator won the republican nomination this year. Taft already was on record. He told NBC's Meet the Press televi sion question panel that if Ike were nominated he would support him.

Then Taft inquired of his questioners whether he would have the General's support if the positions were reversed. The United Press asked Eisenhower's headquarters in suburban Paris. But if the General has made up his mind, he is not yet ready to announce his plan of action after the republican national convention. The response was: No comment Critical of HST After his retirement as chief of staff and before his return to military command of allied foreei in Europe, Eisenhower sketched in general outline his political creed in a series of speeches. These were sharply critical of Truman administration domestic policies, especially free spending and what the General feared were socialistic encroachments no private liberty and enterprise.

There were few details In the Eisenhower platform as outlined in speeches during his presidency of Columbia University. But the general pattern was opposition to much of what Mr. Truman stood for at home and support of Just about all the President stood for in foreign policy. Since returning to Europe, the general's position on questions other than mutual defense and foreign spending have come to the public second handed. If at all.

"Phoney" A question which bothers some his managers is whether that will satisfy the American people. There are recurrent reports that the general will return to make couple of speeches or to use a congressional committee as a sounding board. His headquarters spokesmen re cently told the United Press these reports were "as phoney as a three dollar bill." But the pressure for personal appearances evidently Is increasing. Taft campaign strategists hope to capitalize Ike's political isolation. Some dirty cracks may be expect from the Taft camp how about persons available for the republican presidential nomination who are not ready to endorse the party's candidate if they lose.
