Rhee Criticizes
Killing of Indians
In American Films
SEOUL UP—President Syngman
Rhee suggested today people of
other countries might like Ameri
cans more if Hollywood would
quit making movies about cow
boys killing Indians.
The 82-vear-old President, an
old friend of the United States,
spoke at a ceremony re-naming
the headquarters of the U.S. 1st
Corps after Cpl. Mitchell Red
Cloud Jr. of Komisky City, Wis..
an American Indian posthumous
ly awarded the Medal of Honor
for heroism in the Korean War.
Rhee called for an end to “In
dian killing pictures,” saying they
helped the Communists in their
attempts to paint the United
States as a colonial nation.
“Why,” asked the President,
“while we are trying to tell the
world the United States is not a
colonial power, do people make
all the times these movies of kill
ing, killing and killing? It is very
unwise.”
.Jumped to Conclusion;
Jumped Out the Window
SCRANTON, Pa., UPt—Stanley
Tomczyk, 42, up for sentencing
on an assault charge, heard the
judge say “One year . .
“I don’t want to go to jail,” he
shouted as he leaped through a
courtroom window Friday. He
found himself on a balcony, fac
ing another 30-foot leap to the
ground.
Tomczyk surrendered and was
taken to a hospital for his cuts.
There he learned the judge had
spoken a few words he hadn’t
heard—“Sentence suspended.”
Now court officials are wonder
ing who should pay for the win
dow.
Newsprint Mills to Spend
Half Billion to Boost
Production Capacity 17%
NEW YORK, UP)—North Ameri
can newsprint mills will spend
almost one-half billion dollars
during the next two years to
boost production capacity by 17.5
percent, an industry survey dis
closed today.
Canada’s Newsprint Informa
tion Committee reported that by
the end of 1958 capacity will rise
by 730,000 tons in Canada and
665,000 tons in the U.S., bringing
the North American total to
9,262,514 tons.
The committee said the indus
try’s expansion plans are calcu
lated “to take care of any sudden
increase in lineage as well as
normal newspaper circulation
growth.”
Newsprint was in very short
supply in 1955 and the first half
of 1956, and many U.S. publishers
were forced to buy at premium
prices in the open marget.
The price of newsprint rose $4
a ton to $134 a ton. delivered in
New York, on March 1. Another
price boost is inevitable, some
newsprint manufacturers say.

BE SAFE
BRAIN-OUT!
DON’T RISK an overheated erg! .e
during those first warm.days in the
field. Drain out winter-worn anti
freeze solutions now — particularly
the “permanent” types. Don’t i. •
misled by the word, "permanent”, in
anti-frecze. It actually means winter
long or seasonal, not year after
year.
And don’t rely on hydroma! vr
readings showing that winter-worn
solutions still afford adequate pro
tection against freezing. There is
no way the hydrometer can tell you
that the anti-freeze solution has
turned acid and is dangerously cor
rosive.
Adding a fresh “dose” of rust in
hibitor to winter-worn solutions
won’t do the trick either. It cannot
eliminate the damaging acid salts
already formed.
For safe, trouble-free hot weath
er operation, follow these recom
mendations made by Du Pont cool
ing system experts, and farm equip
ment authorities:
(1) Drain out and discard winter
worn anti-freeze solutions from the
radiator and engine block.
(2) Clean and flush the cooling
system, using a chemical cleaner.
(3) Check all parts of the cooling
system for leaks or wear; replace or
repair where necessary.
(4) Refill radiator with fresh
water, and add a chemical rust in
hibitor.
