US Palestine Peace P Soviet-Arab Bloc Slaps Down US Proposal for Arab-Israeli Talks UNITED NATIONS, N. Y., Dec. 18 (AP) — The Soviet bloc lined up with the Arabs tonight and relped slap down an American-backed appeal for peace between the Arab countries and Zionist Israel. The proposal was for direct Arab-Israeli peace talks to settle the truce-bound Palestine war. The defeat in the UN general assembly was regarded as a major one for U.S. policy toward the seething strategic and oil-rich Middle East. It also showed the Soviet bloc taking a firmer pro-Arab stand where it could do to the western allies much harm. A switch in some Latin-American votes also helped the Arabs. The vote on the mildly worded resolution was 24 in favor, 21 against, with 15 abstentions. It was a defeat because a two-thirds majority is required. It was the first time since the Palestine issue first was raised in the UN in 1947 that the assembly has failed to take some action on it. The Arabs objected to the resolution because they said it failed to reaffirm previous UN resolutions on Israeli frontiers, the right to some 900,000 Arab refugees to return to their homes and internationalism of Jerusalem. Ahmed Shukatrl of Syria pasNATO Forces Stress Quality As Meet Ends PARIS, Dec. 18 (AP)—The hard-up Atlantic Allies wound up their four-day conference today by agreeing to emphasize quality rather than numbers in building their 1953 barricades for Western Europe. In the face of warnings by their highest military commanders that Europe remains wide open to attack, the Council of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization nearly halved the program for construction of airfields, radar screens, roads, bridges, and other defense structures next year. The 32 ministers of foreign affairs finance and defense of the 14 nations voted to build 224 million dollars worth of top priority works, as against the 428 million requested by the military committees. The council announced it also had agreed to: 1. Set up a new Mediterranean Sea Command under Britain's Adm. Lord Mountbatten. 2. Revise their basic strategy to insure defense of the Balkans and Turkey. 3. Built up their economies so... It was the first time since the Palestine issue first was raised in the UN in 1947 that the assembly has failed to take some action on it. The Arabs objected to the resolution because they said it failed to reaffirm previous UN resolutions on Israeli frontiers, the right to some 900,000 Arab refugees to return to their homes and internationalism of Jerusalem. Ahmed Shukaird of Syria passionately told the assembly the whole Arab world "looks in gratitude to those who defeated the resolution—these gentlemen of the Asian-Arab group, of Latin America, of the Soviet bloc." With bitter sarcasm, he turned toward American, British and French delegates and thanked them for originally supporting the partition of Palestine, repatriation of refugees and internationalism of Jerusalem. "Why have they now voted against all three?" asked Shukaird. "It's for them to answer." Y's Men in Black On Christmas Tree Operation Anaheim Y's Mens club reported last night that they had cleared their investment in Christmas trees and that sales from now until Christmas will represent funds that can be applied to their youth work. Bob Quast. Christmas tree sale chairman, said Anaheim residents have been very cooperative in their support of the Y's Mens' project and urged those who have not yet purchased Christmas trees to do so at the lot on the southwest corner of Chestnut and Lemon sts. The Y's Mens program includes heavy emphasis on youth work, Quast pointed out, and explained that the Christmas tree sale is the club's method of obtaining funds to finance their youth work projects. Ike to take Oath On Ancient Bible WASHINGTON, Dec. 18. (AP) Bookmaking Probe By Grand Jury Held Likely Santa Ana police officials were summoned before the county grand jury yesterday in an investigation, the nature of which was closely guarded. Speculation that it probably dealt with recent race-track bookmaking discoveries in Santa Ana was heard at the courthouse. Police Chief B. A: Hershey of Santa Ana was seen entering the grand jury room soon after that body convened with its full membership present, under Foreman Jack R. Sargent of Santa Ana. On his emergence from the grand jury room, Chief Hershey declined to disclose or discuss the subject of his appearance before the grand jury. Other members of his department were waiting outside the jury room for a summons. District Attorney James L. Davis was closeted with the grand jury during the day's session. Latest discovery of bookmaking activities in Santa Ana included the arrest of a woman "bookie" who had committed a traffic violation, and the finding of a vacant room on W. Fourth st., where telephones, records of debts, and assorted bookmaking paraphernalia were found. Greek Theater Programs Resumed With good weather restored to Anaheim last night, the Community Christmas program was resumed in the Greek theater. The choir of First Baptist church provided the music for 335 children and accompanying adults. Angela Bain, 903 E. Center st., and Ruddy Pena, 1114 Perry st. were the lucky ticket holders who won a radio each. The radios were presented by Santa Claus through the courtesy of Smith-Reafsnyer Furniture Co. and Gamble's Western Auto store. Tomorrow night, the final program in the series will be presented nationally voted to build 224 million dollars worth of top priority works, as against the 428 million requested by the military committee. The council announced it also had agreed to: 1. Set up a new Mediterranean Sea Command under Britain's Adm. Lord Mountbatten. 2. Revise their basic strategy to insure defense of the Balkans and Turkey. 3. Built up their economies so they can stand up to the burden of rearmament. 4. Support France in the war in Indo China without physically joining the battle. 5. Hurry up the project for the six-nation European Army in which German ground, air and sea units would be included. 6. Meet again in the spring, as early as possible, presumably after British Prime Minister Churchill has had a chance to hold talks with the new administration of President-elect Eisenhower.

Soviets Release US In East Berlin Ike to take Oath On Ancient Bible WASHINGTON, Dec. 18. (AP)—Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower will take the oath of office as president on the same bible Gen. George Washington used. This was announced today by Sen. Styles Bridges (R-N.H.), chairman of the joint congressional inaugural committee. He described the Bible as 200 years old, in the possession of the St. John's lodge No. 1 of the Ancient York Masons, New York City, for the past 195 years. VANCOUVER, B.

Red Boast: 'Seoul by Christmas' Answered by Heavy Air Smashes SEOUL, Friday, Dec. 19. (AP)—The Communists boasted by radio and frontline loudspeakers Thursday that they would be in Seoul by Christmas. The allies answered with a pulverizing air smash at a huge enemy troop concentration area near the north Korean capital of Pyongyang, 115 miles northwest of Seoul. The Red propaganda brags were supplemented by the rare appearance of a Communist plane over the quiet front. It dropped leaflets hitting the theme: "Yankee, go home." Answering words with bombs, waves of allied fighter - bombers winged through 10 degree above zero cold and pounded the Red troop area 20 miles south of Pyongyang. More than 70 buildings were destroyed and 30 damaged by waves of bombers laying down a carpet of high explosives, the air force said. Allied light bombers attacked Communist transports last night. Pilots reported 75 vehicles destroyed. Twelve B-29 Superforts last night bombed Kanachon, a supply center deep in northwest Korea, and Kwan, another supply area south of the red capital of Pyongyang. Both were first time targets. Speedy Sabre jets flashed on north in a protective screen and knocked down one MIG jet and damaged another. The MIG shot down was credited to Lt. James Low, Sansalito, Calif., ranking jet ace in Korea with nine. Fighter-bombers also swarmed over the warfront hitting enemy installations. On the ground, only patrol action was reported in the numbing cold.

Soviets Release US In East Berlin; Keep BERLIN, Dec. 18 (AP) — Soviet authorities late tonight released a U.S. Army sergeant held two days in the Russian sector. A few hours earlier a Soviet-licensed news agency claimed that two other American soldiers grabbed by Soviet sentries on the frontier Nov. 26 have asked for "political asylum" in the east zone of Germany. The box score tonight was one Russian soldier held in the West zone and said by U.S. authorities to have sought asylum, and three Americans in the Soviet zone. A U.S. spokesman in Vienna said tonight that a Soviet soldier stationed in Austria had deserted to the West and refused to be repatriated. The U.S. soldier released was M-Sgt. William T. Rice, Farmville, Va. He was seized by armed East German police Tuesday while in charge of a group of German workers posting signs marking the boundary between the U.S. and Soviet sectors in Berlin. He was released after Sailor Killed in Seal Beach Wreck Falling asleep at the wheel of his car, Jack Richard Burgoon, 25, sailor from San Francisco, was instantly killed early yesterday when his car struck a parked semi-trailer on Coast highway near 18th st. at Sunset Beach. This was the county's first fatality since Thanksgiving day, Coroner Earl R. Abbey stated.

CHC Approves Routes for SA, Sepulveda Freeways SACRAMENTO, Dec. 18 (F)—The California Highway Commission took these two actions today to assure future extension of the Santa Ana and Sepulveda Freeways: cated by Road Commissioner Harold Springer and Supervisor Heinz Kalser of Orange county. An engineering report said it can be built for less than an alternate route urged by a group of people SIAMESE TWINS BEER—The Brodie Siamese twigging a grim battle separated in an historic gery; are held by nurse III., hospital one day af One Side CHC Approves Routes for SA, Sepulveda Freeways SACRAMENTO, Dec. 18 — The California Highway Commission took these two actions today to assure future extension of the Santa Ana and Sepulveda Freeways: 1. It approved a route from the Santa Ana Freeway that will take it through San Clemente from Miguel road, west of El Toro in Orange county, to the San Diego county line—a distance of 19 miles. The estimated cost: 14 million dollars. 2. It declared its intention of adopting a proposed route for another 48 miles of the Sepulveda Freeway south and east from Florence avenue in Inglewood to El Toro in Orange county. The commission accepted the Santa Ana Freeway route advocated by Road Commissioner Harold Springer and Supervisor Heinz Kalser of Orange county. An engineering report said it can be built for less than an alternate route urged by a group of people in San Clemente. The route from Miguel road to one mile north of the junction with Pacific Coast Highway U.S. 101 alternate at Capistrano Beach roughly follows U.S. 101 with two exceptions. These are the Santa Fe railroad separation at Gallivan and a bypass to the east of San Juan Capistrano. Southeast of Capistrano Beach, the proposed improvement goes on an entirely new alignment, swinging to the higher level about a half mile back of the Coast to the city limits of San Clemente. The route will be inland from the present highway through the west half of the developed portion of San Clemente. It crosses U.S. 101 near West Avenida de los Lobos Marinos, thence south on the road through the easterly half of the city. Highway engineers concluded that this route would cause the least possible disruption of the existing street pattern in San Clemente. Sewer Districts Call for Bids On Outfall Line County Sanitation district directors have called for bids on the land section of the ocean outfall line, to be opened Jan. 14, having received plans and specifications from the design engineers, carrying cost estimates of $223,935 and $231,185 for alternate plans. Original plans for the 2000-foot land section, estimated to cost about $300,000, would have cost approximately double that figure, it was discovered when bids on the contract were submitted. Accordingly the design engineers were instructed to modify the plans to come within available funds. TO MEETING — Secretary of Treasury John W.

The two American soldiers who, the news agency ADN claimed, had sought asylum in the East were identified by ADN as Privates Lintmont Night and Raymond V. Michalowski. The U.S. Army previously had announced that Michalowski, of Perth Amboy, N.J., and Pvt. Night, Los Angeles, were arrested last month when they accidentally rode into the Soviet sector on an interurban train. Since the news agency quoted Night as saying in a statement, "I am Pvt. Lintmont Night." U.S. officials said it was clear that in view of the misspelling he did not know what he was signing. Maj. Gen. Lemuel Mathewson, U.S. commandant here, has made repeated demands for the release of Michalowski and Night. The third American missing in the Soviet zone is Lt. Horace J. Sincore of Homestead, Fla. He is believed to have crossed into the East zone inadvertently Nov. 24. The Russians have evaded any conclusive answer as to his whereabouts.

Concerning an article appearing in the Gazette yesterday morning, City Administrator Keith Murdoch said, "I want rather flabbergasted when I read it. I can't conceive of circumstances under which the Delco battery factory site could be included in the limits of Buena Park if it votes to incorporate." An election on incorporation due in Buena Park on Jan. 20. Murdoch and other city officials pointed out that part of the Delco site is included in the proposed Houston st annexation, now the Anaheim legislative村. Delco officials were very positive in expressing their desire to be a part of this city, Murdoch explained, "so we feel that they will ask for an nexation of their entire site." Furthermore," he continued "Buena Park, even if incorporated will not be in a position to provide the service Delco must have. addition, their tax rate, before it corporation, is much higher than that of the city of Anaheim."

AMESE TWINS BEFORE OPERATION The Brodie Siamese twins, who today are going a grim battle for life after being separated in an historic marathon of surgery, are held by nurses in a Rock Island hospital one day after their birth on Sept. 16. A team of specialists operated for 12 hours and 40 minutes yesterday in Chicago to part the 15-month-old boys and give them a chance to lead separate lives. The twins are the sons of Mr. and Mrs. Royt Brodie of Moline, Ill. (AP Wirephoto) One Siamese Twin Does Well; Other 'Precarious' CHICAGO, Dec. 18 (AP) — The newly-divided Brodie Siamese twins went separate ways after their historic operation, one becoming conscious but the other taking a turn the worse and then improving only slightly. Rodney Dee, favored for "survival of the worst" by choice of surgeons who separated him from his bigger twin brother, regained consciousness with a cry and a smile this morning. His twin, Roger Lee, whose brain cirrhosis was impaired by the opioid—the 13th on the twins—died one relapse but then lived a slight gain. Surgeons said, however, his condition still is "precarious." The latest bulletin on the conclusion of the twins issued by the University of Illinois gave this讯息: Rodney—has regained consciousness. Cries and smiles. Conn. is stable. Seems to be good. Roger—still in very precarious condition, although respiration other vital factors have immedially during the mornings improvement cheered on who yesterday had to be one of the most difficult millions they ever faced. The height of the 12 hours 10 minutes operation, they dislaced their earlier fears were founded. There was only one facial sinus, the main passage or vein draining blood back both brains. Is called for an immediate incision could be made. Local Officials Impressed by Bena Park Claim Neems unlikely Anaheim will win its latest industrial prize. Remy division of General Motors Corp., to Buena Park in vent that community incorporates, Anaheim officials said today. Sept. 16. A team of specialists operated for 12 hours and 40 minutes yesterday in Chicago to part the 15-month-old boys and give them a chance to lead separate lives. The twins are the sons of Mr. and Mrs. Royt Brodie of Moline, Ill. (AP Wirephoto) to give one twin or the other the vital vein. Dr. Eric Oldberg, head of the University of Illinois Department of Neurology, said Rodney—the smaller of the twins—got the break because he was holding up much better under the strain of the operation, and surgery in his faver could be more easily performed. Dr. Oldberg, an observer at the operation, performed in the University's Neurophysiiatric Institute, described the surgery in detail at a news conference. He said the surgeons "more or less went for one and took the bigger chance on the other. The choice was made on the basis of which child did well and which didn't. "Roger didn't do well. He was in shock several times. His condition was precarious." A newsman asked him if the doctors decided their course should be to aid in "the survival of the fittest." "You might put it that way," Dr. Oldberg replied. Both twins were unconscious all night, and Roger took a sharp critical turn at 5 a.m. when his throat began to swell, shutting off his breathing. Dr. Cecil D. Riggs, resident doctor at the Neuropsychiatric Institute, performed an emergency trachectomy, slitting an opening in the throat and windpipe to aid breathing. Roger began to rally somewhat after this. Doctors said Roger's heart is beating slowly and not pumping will decide Roger's fate. The parents, Mr. and Mrs. Royt Brodie of Moline, Ill., maintained their harrowing vigil near the cribs of their 15-month-old sons. Brodie, a small dark-haired man of 35, showed signs of strain and his hands trembled as he talked briefly with newmen. He described himself as "unstrung" and said; "I was hopeful since the day they were born. Now we're waiting and praying." Doctors said much additional surgery still is required. Soft tissue has been used to cover the naked brains of both twins. Bone grafts or plastic or metal coverings will be needed to build tops for their skulls. Judge West to Preside Over Appellate Court Superior Judge Franklin G. West of Santa Ana has been named presiding judge of the new Appellate division of Orange county Superior court, just created by the State Judicial council. The Appellate division of the court will include three of the four judges. Judge Kenneth E. Morrison of Santa Ana and Judge Robert Gardner of Newport Beach are the other members. The three appointments were made by Chief Justice Phil S. Gibson of the State Supreme court, who is chairman of the Judicial council. Dr. Cecil D. Riggs, resident doctor at the Neuropsychiatric Institute, performed an emergency trachectomy, slitting an opening in the throat and windpipe to aid breathing. Roger began to rally somewhat after this. Doctors said Roger's heart is beating slowly and not pumping much blood to his brain, and that small collateral veins are presently able to substitute for the large missing vein. However, Dr. Oldberg said, the chances are "almost nil" that new collateral veins will grow and help carry the burden. He said both twins would remain on the critical list for five to seven days, if they survive, and that the "next few hours" Daily Living for Peace of Mind Editor's note: This is one of a series of daily articles by Anaheim ministers and is published by the Gazette in the interest of the kind of daily living that leads to contentment and happiness in troubled times. And do it without Squawking By Rev. Wm. McKINLEY WALKER Wesley Methodist Church In one of his books Dr. Roy Smith tells of a little boy taking his turn at family prayers and saying, "Dear Lord, help us to do what we have to do today, and do it without squawking." There are a lot of things every one of us has to do each day—some things not at all pleasant, but necessary. Shall we not therefore do what we have to do "without squawking"—those dishes to be washed, the homework to be done, the service club luncheon to attend when we wanted so much to do something else just then, or to go shopping with the wife when we think she takes so long to make up her mind—these and many more you can think of—do them "without squawking" and have the victory in daily living. By complaining about these necessities, we do not lessen their number and only add to their difficulty. By rebelling against them we do not soften the hard facts about them. By accepting them resentfully we only increase their bitterness. By allowing ourselves to grow angry over them we usually double their oppressive weight. There is only one conclusion possible. If we are to get any joy out of life, let us do all our inevitables "without squawking."
