Marian Year Ends
As Pope Blesses
World From Bed
VATICAN CITY, -Dec. 8 (W)—
United by radio to Roman Catho
lics everywhere, Pope Pius XII
today closed the Marian year with
a blessing to the world from his
sickroom.
His message was spoken with
deep emotion, as if , reflecting his
suffering:
"As we behold the entire Cath
olic world, kneeling today like
one family at the feet of the Im
maculate Virgin, we are grateful
to the Lord who, as, a seal on
such a multitude of prayers and
good work offered up• to Him
during this year of grace, has
asked of us suffering and sacri
fice as an act of love."
It was with "suffering in our
rneinbers and sacrifice in our
heart" . that he closed the Marian
year by saying the Ave Maria,
the Pope added.
Recorded at his bedside and
broadcast over the Vatican radio,
the words were heard in hushed
silence in Rome's majestic basilica
of St. Mary Major. There, two
miles from the Vatican, prayer
ful Romans had gathered to ob
serve the closing Te Deum for the
year in Mary's honor.
British charge Greece
LONDON, Dec. 8 VP)---Britain
has protested'to Greece against
what she called "hostile propa
ganda" broadcasts by the Athens
radio to Britain's island colony of
Cyprus in the Mediterranean Sea,
Secretary Sir Anthony Eden said
today.
The British ambassadoi. to Ath
ens "has received an assurance
that offensive matter will not in
the future be included in the
broadcasts," Eden told the House
of Commons.
Ike Says
WASHINGTON, Dec. 8 VP)—
President Dwight D. Eisenhower
said today the free world's fears
of a global war have diminished
in the last four years. He said the
last year itself has brought a con
siderable accomplishment in his
"atoms-for-peace" proposal.
Eisenhower gave his appraisal
to an overflow crowd at his week
ly news conference.
A reporter asked him whether
he thought the •chances of peace
had increased since he took office
in January 1953.
An armistice is not peace, he
said thoughtfully. He deScribed
peace as a situation where a na
tion may have justifiable, confi
dence it can devote its energies
to the good of the people, -not to
protecting them or destroying
others.
That is not the situation now, he
observed.
He mentioned the atoms-for-

itself all the grave consequences,"
Chou declared in a statement
broadcast by Peiping radio.
"On behalf of the government
of the People's Republic of China,"
Chou ',said, "I hereby declare:
"Taiwan Formosa is China's
territory and President Chiang
Kai-shek .of Nationalist China is
the public enemy of the sChinese
people.
Liberate and Liquidate
"To liberate Taiwan and liqui
date the traitorous Chiang Kai
shek clique is a matter which falls
entirely within the scope of Chi
na's sovereignty and ,internal af
fairs and no interference of any
foreign country will be tolerated."
It was Chou's second attack of
the week on the treaty signed last
week in Washington under which
the United States would protect
Formosa and the nearby Pesca
dores from Red invasion.
Repeats Charge
Chou repeated his charge made
Monday at a diplomatic reception
that the treaty was designed to
"legalize" U.S. "armed seizure of
China's territory of Taiwan" and
"to extend its aggression against
China and prepare a new' war."
The Premier, who also is for
eign minister; asserted the defense
pact "has no legal basis whatever
and is null and void." He styled it
"a treaty of war and aggression."
"Threats of war," Chou said,
`•`cannot shake the determination
of the Chinese people to liberate
Taiwan; they can only heighten
the indignation of the Chinese
people."
Job Situation Improved
WASHINGTON, Dec. 8 (P)—
Rehiring in the - action's mills and
factories brought "further im
provement in the job situation"
in November despite some in
crease in total unemployment, the
Commerce and Labor' Depart
rnents reported today.
War Fears Abated
peace progress in hi s ' opening an
nouncement, noting that this is
the first anniversary of his offer
ing . the idea at the United Na
tions. It envisioned a pooling of
atomic materials and knowledge
fbr the good of all nations, rather
than for destruction of any.
Eisenhower said that while
progress has not come up to hope
ful - expectations, there had been
a, considerable accomplishment.
He said Secretary of State John
Foster Dulles would sum up the
achievements later.
Eisenhower announced he would
meet Tuesday with Republican
and Democratic leaders of con
gressional committees dealing
with foreign relations, the armed
services and appropriations to
discuss foreign affairs, foreign aid
and national security.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
Printer , Swipes
Girl Reporter
From News Room
LA PORTE, Ind., Dec. 8 (W)—
The editorial staff of the La Porte
Herald-Argus had a story dumped
right in its lap on its afternoon
deadline today as a fun-toting ap-:
prentice printer kidnaped a young
woman reporter from the news
room:
The printer, Robert -Panek, 25,
returned the reporter, 22-year-old
Abbey Johnson, to the newspaper
office unharmed an hour and 40
minutes later and then' drove off
in the car in which he had carried
her away.
As a police search was under
way for him he walked into the
La Porte police station and sur
rendered another hour and a 'half
later.
Miss Johnson was too unnerved
upon her return to give a clear
account of her experience.
She did tell her fellow work
ers, however; that while she was
with Panek he asked her if she
would marry him and she told
him, "NQ."
Erie Mayor Admits
Conspiracy Charge
ERIE, Pa., Dec. 8' (P)—Mayor
Thomas - W. Flatley, 67, a kingpin
in the Erie County Democratic
party, pleaded guilty today to
charges of conspiracy and violat
ing his oath of office: The charges
stemmed from a gambling raid.
Flatley entered his surprise plea
while, the court was considering
a motion by the mayor's counsel
to postpone his trial. He was one
of more than 40. persons arrested
by state police Oct. 16.
District Attorney Damian Mc-
Laughlin, a Republican, said the
raid broke up a 20-million-dollar
a year gambling syndicate in the
county.
McLaughlin said the mayor ac
cepted money from gamblers and
in return kept police from inter
ferring with their operations.
Refugees Welcome
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9 (W)—
Refugees from Communist "poli
tical and religious persecution"
will always be welcome in the
United States, the American gov
ernment bluntly informed Pol
and's Red regime today.
nists claim they couldn't have vio
lated the Korean truce agreement
because they didn't sign it, Eisen
hower said he hadn't heard that.
He said they may be arguing
technicalities.
The Red Chinese themselves
have 'admitted that the 11 Ameri
can airmen they have jailed as
"spies" were unifornied personnel,
he said sharply. They should ha' e
been exchanged under the truce
agreement, he said, adding: that
someone violated the armistice.
Asked to reconcile "an expand
ed foreign aid program" with de
ficit operations by this govern
ment, - Eisenhower said he pre
ferred to use the term mutual se
curity, rather than foreign aid.
He said these things should be
looked at from the standpoint of
enlightened self-interest of the
United States.
Eisenhower Shuns
Talk of
WASHINGTON, Dec. 8 (IP),--President Dwight D. Eisenhower
shunned a personal word battle with Republican Joseph R. Mc-
Carthy of Wisconsin today while declaring the American people
want a government run by "progressive moderates."
"And that is exactly what I am working for," the President
added.
Eisenhower, with his temper ap
parently well contained, told his
news conference crisply that he
would not reply Lto McCarthy's at
tack on him yesterday. The sen
ator had accused him of displaying
a "shrinking show of weakness"
toward communism.
The President said he stands for
positive things and, does not in
dulge in personal vituperation or
quarrels of any kind.
When a reporter spoke of the
possibility of the "extreme right
wing" of the Republican party fol
lokving McCarthy into a new party
in 1956, Eisenhower said if peo
ple want to split off because of
secondary or lesser considerations
that will- have to be their busi
ness.
"From the beginning have
tried to stand for something that
is positive and progressive,•' the
President declared.
"I believe that the federal gov
ernment has a continuous, definite
obligation to study the needs of
163 million people, our standing
abroad, our security from attack,
and the arangement of .the con
nections between government and
our economy, our industries and
our individuals.
"Now that is the kind of nro
gram that I stand for," E..sen
hower continued, "and if there are
enough people waiting to go along
with it, then we have no fear."
