U.S. Asks U.N. To
Junk All Parts Of
Red ‘Peace Plan’
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., UB
—The United States called on the
United Nations Tuesday to junk
each and every part of Russia’s
1953-model “peace plan.”
Chief U.S. Delegate Henry Cab
ot Lodge Jr. told the 60-nation
Political Committee “the resolu
tions now on the books deal ade
quately with the subject. The only
thing we still require is for the
Soviet Union to quit disregarding
them.”
The Kremlin, through its chief
delegate, Andrei Y. Vishinsky, has
asked the U.N. to ban the atomic
and hydrogen bombs uncondition
ally; cut the armed forces of the
big powers by a flat one-third;
forbid foreign bases in other coun
tries; and condemn Western anti
communist propaganda as war
mongering.
These demands have been de
feated, in one form or another,
oyer and over in the Assembly
and its committees. The Soviets
have revived them each succeed
ing year.
Lodge said Russian charges that
the United States was responsible
for present world tension were
“obviously written by professional
Communist axe-grinders” and re
minded him of the old proverb
that the devil can quote Scripture.
As for propaganda, Lodge gave
example after example of what
he called Soviet moves in enter
tainment, schooling and news
papers to make the Russians hate
the American people.
STIFF NECKED TURKEY
CHILDRESS Tex., UP) —- A
careless turkey came up with a
stiff neck recently and presented
a problem. He couldn’t eat during
feeding time.
Owner Grady Gilliland of Chil
dress hustled the hungry bird off
to a veterinarian.
It was a stiff neck, all right.
The veterinarian removed a stiff
weed stalk 11 inches long, from
the turkey’s neck. Everything
all right now.
