Eisenhower Nearing End of Cabinet Appointments; McKeldin May Get Post NEW YORK (AP) — President-elect Dwight D. Eisenhower neared the end of his designations for top-level government offices today. Courts Crack Down on Drivers Three Santa Ana motorists who ignored traffic citations in other cities and drove blithely homeward were shocked yesterday to find themselves served with bench warrants from the lrate courts of the other cities and rudely incarcerated in the county jail to await word from the outside authorities—Orange, Los Angeles, and Chico. Charles James Nefores, 23, Santa Ana cab driver, had failed to answer a speeding citation from Orange police. He was jailed just before midnight last night. Eddie G. Guerrero, 23, 1714 W. First st., Santa Ana, blamed his arrest on his sister. She was the one who had been driving his car in Los Angeles on the date of the citation, and had not mentioned getting a ticket there, he said. But Guerrero went to jail, nevertheless. Harold G. Strom, 47, 1606 N. Parton st., may have felt the safest. His traffic ticket was far away in Chico, northern California. But the long arm of the law reached forth and grabbed him just the same. He went to jail at 8:25 p.m. Burglar Loots Rug Store declaring that more high positions will be assigned to women administrators. He has named the seventh member of the normally nine-man cabinet. And along with that designation, he announced yesterday that he will propose the names of two women—Mrs. Ovets Culb Hobby of Houston, Tex., and Mrs. Ivy Baker Priest of Bountiful, Utah—for administrative offices in the government he is forming. Mrs. Hobby was named to head the Federal Security Agency and Mrs. Priest as treasurer of the United States. These, he said in a formal announcement, are “the first of other appointments of women in the coming administration.” The designation for the cabinet was Arthur E. Summerfield of Flint, Mich., for postmaster general. Summerfield is chairman of the Republican National committee. Only two cabinet posts now remain: the secretaries of commerce and labor. There has been no indication at the general’s headquarters as to his choices. He has an appointment today with Gov. Theodore R. McKeldin of Maryland, one of his early backers in the fight for the presidency and the man who nominated him for the office at the GOP convention in July. There has been speculation that McKeldin may get one of the two remaining cabinet positions. The governor, however, said yesterday his appointment with Eisenhower is only a friendly call and has no Harold G. Strom, 47, 1606 N. Parton st., may have felt the safest. His traffic ticket was far away in Chico, northern California. But the long arm of the law reached forth and grabbed him just the same. He went to jail at 8:25 p.m. Burglar Loots Rug Store Burglary of a Santa Ana floor covering establishment, where rugs valued at $350 were stolen, was reported today to Santa Ana police by Eugene C. Pond, operator of Gene's Floor Covering at 1103 S. Main st. Investigation showed that the burglar had stood on two 5-gallon cans to reach a rear window; had taped the window and then smashed it, the tape preventing noise from falling glass. Two 9-20 feet rugs, one valued at $200, the other at $100, and eight small rugs valued at $50, were shoved out through the empty window sash, it was found. LOS ANGELES (P) — The weather bureau says it shouldn't be cold enough to require any heating in citrus districts.

The bureau also revised slightly a five-day forecast for rain over the weekend, but said there still is a possibility of showers by Saturday night. Missionary Says Chinese Reds "Filled with Fear" By ROY ESSOYAN HONOLULU (P) — The last American Methodist missionary to leave Communist China said here last night Chinese Reds “are so filled with hate and fear of America” it is impossible to argue with them. The Rev. F. Olin Stockwell said he gained his release from a Communist prison when he “realized that to argue with the Communists was as useless as to argue with a drunkard.” Stockwell, who passed through Honolulu en route to Los Angeles after two years in Communist prisons, said, “I signed such statements as they desired” to gain release. He told reporters he hoped to meet his wife Esther in Los Angeles today, two years to the day after he was arrested in Chung-king by the Reds on charges of being a “counter-revolutionary missionary spy.” Dr. Stockwell plans to return to his home in Chicago for a rest before starting on a speaking tour. He is attached to the Board of Foreign Missions of the Methodist church with headquarters in New York. Dr. Stockwell told reporters at Honolulu airport that he spent 14 months in solitary confinement in Chungking but suffered no physical violence. “Many other missionaries fared worse,” he said. He said the Communists “prided themselves on the fact that they did not subject their captives to electric shock or the water treatments,” he said. He said his food consisted of rice and one vegetable twice daily, “with a taste of meat twice a month.” Dr. Stockwell is a veteran of 22 years missionary work in China. Asked if there were any American Methodist missionaries left China, he said, “No, I was the last one.” “A week ago Sunday night I was in a Communist cell, 10 feet square, in Canton,” he said. “It hard to believe.” He said he was forced to attend a compulsory Communist indoctrination course for nine months. “They told us they did not expect us to turn Communists,” he said, “but we could not leave China until we realized that the United States was the imperialistic aggressor in the Far East.” “Prisoners who refused to change their minds were kept handcuffs and leg chains.” Daily Gazette California, Wednesday, November 26, 1952 6 Cents per Copy 50 Cents per Month No. 279 These Reject Peace Proposal Present U.S. Government Has Given No Further Thought" to Korea Plan By STANLEY JOHNSTON UNITED NATIONS (AP)—Soviet Foreign Minister Anl Y.

Transformation from the Ordinary Rev. Wm. McKINLEY WALKER Wesley Methodist Church There is a story of William Walcott, the noted English etcher, who first came to New York in 1924 to record his impressions of that city. After a week gathering impressions, there came a day when he felt an urge to sketch. He tried vainly to find the desired paper. Finally, he looked up an old architect friend whom he had met in England. While an office boy had been sent out to purchase sketching paper, Walcott wandered about the architect's office. Seeing a boy wrapping up house plans, Walcott asked, "What is that paper?" "It's just ordinary wrapping paper," explained the boy. "Nothing is ordinary," corrected the artist. "If you know how to use it." He took one of the big sheets, folded it and hurried away. On that "ordinary wrapping paper," Walcott, the master etcher, made two sketches. One sold for a thousand dollars, the other for five hundred. Your life may seem to you drab and ordinary, but if you allow Christ the Great Architect, Who knows how, to make of your life a picture of helpfulness your value to the community may be priceless. No life is ordinary if He gets an opportunity to carry out His duties upon it.
