Two Turncoats
To Return Soon
From Red China
HONG KONG, IM—Two more
American turncoats from the Ko
rean War, who decided they did
n't want to live in Red China
after all, hope to get back to their
families by Christmas.
Arley Pate, 26, of Carbondale,
111., and Aaron Wilson, 24, of
Urania, La., reached Hong Kong
yesterday after spending three
years with Chinese Communists.
“I went to China because I
wanted peace,” Pate told news
men. “I didn’t find it there, and
will now go back to live a peace
ful life with my family.”
Wilson nodded agreement.
They were among 21 American
war prisoners who decided to live
in China after the Korean con
flict ended in 1953. Four others
returned ahead of Wilson and
one died in China.

PROPHET WITHOUT HONOR !
WINCHESTER, England, The
city fathers announced today they
have gone real cold on a plan to
erect a statue of King Henry III
in Hampshire County’s new coun
cil building.
The project went into the deep
freeze as a result of some histori
cal research by Councillor H. M.
King.
The councillor found that the
Thirteenth Century monarch—
who styled himself “Henry of
Winchester”—oice remarked:
“The city and the district stink.
I was born in this city and yet
nowhere have I been so disgrace
fully treated. There is no county
so infamous in England, none
stained so deep in crime.”

Astronomy Notes
By OLAF HALVERSON
The second moon of the planet
Mars was called Deimos, meaning
terror. It is 14 miles in diameter
and is 12,500 miles from the plan
et. Its time of revolution is also
very short, being only 30 hours
and 18 minutes.
Since the time of revolution or
going around the planet is only a
few hours more than the rotation
time, the moon moves slowly
across the sky. It remains contin
uously above the horizon at any
given place for more than 50
hours.
It has been computed that Mars’
two small moons cause 1400 eclip
ses of the sun in a year. The two
I satellites are also the smallest
objects in the sky which are visi
ble through the large telescopes.
Our month of March and the
fiery colored planet were named
after the Roman god of war.
March was the first month in the
old Roman year.

■7 IN THE COUNTRY/
Eisenhower Moves
To Admit 21,500
Hungary Refugees
AUGUSTA, Ga„ WV—President
Eisenhower, moving to aid “the
victims of Soviet oppression,” an
nounced Saturday the U.S. will
admit 21,500 Hungarian refugees
—more than four times the num
ber planned originally.
The total to be granted asylum
is being hiked from 5,000, the
White House said, because of “an
emergency problem” thrust upon
Austria with scores of thousands
of refugees crowding into that
nation from Hungary.
And there was a hint that there
eventually may be still another
increase in the total permitted to
come to this country. Referring to
the current jump to 21,500, the
statement issued at Eisenhower’s
vacation headquarters here said:
“When these numbers have
been exhausted, the situation will
be re-examined.”
Because of the emergency na
ture of the problem, the adminis
tration is using a cut-the red-tape
procedure in the expanded pro
gram.
Of the 21,500 to be offered asy
lum, only about 6,500 can be
brought into the U.S. under provi
sions of the Refugee Relief Act,
which expires Dec. 31.
The other 15,000 will be admit
ted as “parolees” under discretion
given to the attorney general, the
White House said, in the General
Immigration and Nationality Act.
Persons admitted as parolees
have no permanent resident sta
tus in the U.S., but it was an
nounced that Eisenhower in Jan
uary will ask Congress to enact
emergency legislation to let Hun
garian refugees in that category
stay in this country.
8 Loggers Presumed
Dead After Capsizing
CRESTON, B.C. OB—Little hope
is held that any of the eight log
gers flung into icy Kootenay Lake
when their small boat capsized
Friday night is alive.
The bodies of two of them were
found in the lake 25 miles north
west of here during the weekend.
A search for the other six was
resumed at dawn today.
All were dressed in heavy log
gers’ clothing.
Hope for the men was slim in
view of the 40-degree water and
the fact the boat apparently over
turned approximately in the mid
dle of the lake.
