• By the Associated Press)
Both Canada and New Mexico

‘multi - company deal announced

cubic feet of gas a day from the

Will Welcome Xmas Day |
Visit by Hollywood Stars
But Not The Reason For It |
MOUNTAIN HOME, Idaho, (£1 j
— Hollywood, take a lesson in '
geography from Ihe city of Moun
tain Home.
Herman Hass, president of the
Chamber of Commerce, says he
plans to write a letter to the
Hollywood Coordinating Commit
tee, an organization which an
nounced Sunday it will send a
group of movie stars to Mountain
Home Air Force Base on Christ
mas day.
Hass says he thinks that’s a fine
idea, but he told a reporter he
doesn’t think much of one of the ;
reasons the committee gave for
the trip: that the base is 55 miles
from the nearest settlement.
“They must think we’re a
bunch of cowboys and Indians,”
said Hass, who lives about 11
miles from the base, along with
about 5,000 other residents.
Fine Job Printing at The Nugget
» WASHINGTON, IjPI — The
United States Tuesday ruled out
any deal with Red China to swap
35 Chinese students in America
for the 11 U.S. airmen imprisoned
inside China.
State Department press officer
Lincoln White told newsmen,
“There will be no deal.”
White’s foments came in reply
to questions about a Peiping radio
broadcast which carried a broad
hint Red China was trying to coax
the United States into a deal.
The Red broadcast alluded to
the 11 U.S. airmn held as “spies”
and said the United States would
be flouting international law if it
held the 35 Chinese students in
retaliation for the jailing of the
airmen.
The way the two matters were
linked was interpreted by some
diplomats at the United Nations as
meaning the Chinese Communists
were seeking to play a hostage
game while trying to save face
and put the onus on the United
States.
White said the airmen and the
Chinese students were in entire
ly different categories. The air
men, shot down and captured two
years ago during the Korean war,
are legally prisoners of war and
entitled to full international rights
as such, he said. The students are
civilians whose cases are still
under study, he added.
The Chinese students have been
in this country since before the
Communists took over in China in
1949. Last May 26 at Geneva, Red
China delegate Huang Hua told
a news conference the U. S. was
holding 5,000 Chinese students.

Ike Pays Tribute
To Newsmen Who
Have Died Abroad
NEW YORK, 1/PI — President
Eisenhower paid tribute to the
American newspaperman last
night, calling him a “valiant war
rier for the truth that makes men
free.”
In the unending struggle to
maintain our freedom, the Ameri
can reporter is ever in the front
line,” Eisenhower said. “For as
long as faith and knowledge en
dure, freedom is certain to sur
vive.”
The President appeared on a
filmed, 90-minute television pro
gram, climaxing day-long dedica
tion ceremonies of a new mem
orial press center of the Overseas
Press Club. The center honors
newspapermen who died abroad
in line of duty.
“Thrbugh many years, I have
had good reason to count the
press corps as a vital arm of the
forces of freedom,” the President
said.
“In war, I saw its members
strive tirelessly, endure hardship,
dare battlefield peril that our
people might be fully and quickly
informed; on every front, they
were worthy comrades of out
fighting men.
“Now, as President, I find that
each day emphasizes anew the
fairness, the discernment, the
dedication of the American re
porter. In peace, he is still a
valiant warrior for the truth that
makes men free.”
A cast of entertainers, who ap
peared on the television show,
“the dateline,” included Bob
Hope, Sid Caesar, Martha Raye,
and John Daly.
During the ceremonies, former
presidents of the organization un
veiled four plaques with names
of 82 newsmen who have died
abroad while searching for news.
