Thursday, May 10, MADE IN MADRID For some strange reason the world refuse to go along with prete; not dictators, says the St. Louis Star-Times.

In the face of the huge volume of construc ion work outlined for this season, with its attended influx of all types of people to Fairbanks, a strong police department is more important than at any other time. The only hope is that men will be found who truly interested in law enforcement work and willing to foresake a temporary bigger paycheck for a lesser paid job in work that they like and which | will be permanent rather than seasonal. This will require cooperation on the part nf fhe public. Coupled with lower pay, few men will sti to a thankless job that is subject to constant criti- cism. The police in the past have been subject to tests by certain elements of the community who berate them for “brutality “inefficiency” and numerous other alleged failings. If they arrest a hard customer they are brutal; if they are unable to ap- prehend a burglar who has left no clue behind, are 1951 dictators of the nse that they are | cevere all.

His cable is significant because it was Ambassador Pannikkar who first warned the United Statesand the U. N. that Chinese troops were going to intervene in Korea. This warning was made in early Scp- tember, and now says he got no warning from anyone, Pannikkar's warning was not only sent him hy the State Department but was published in this column on Sept. 17. What is important to remember now, however, is that during De- cember and January Ambassadcr Pannikkar favored conciliation to- ward the Chinese, felt thers was a chance for a military truce. Now he has reversed himsel:, ad- vises that China has no intention; whatever of negotiating peace and the United Nations migho just as well get tough. Lively Publisher—Copyreadets of the New Orleans Times-Picayune are in for trouble. They may have| wood column in the future. The Times-Picayune, now facing a Justice Department Antitrust suit, has claimed that publisher Leonard Nicoholson is too -ill to testify. Justice Department lawyers | countered that Mr. Nicholson was well enough to attend the American newspaper publishers convention at the Waldorf in New York, but Judge Earl Christianberry, former secretary of Huey Long, ruled that Nicholson would only have to an- swer written questious, not appcar in court personally. Next day, the Times-Picayune carried a story recounting the court | argument and pointing out that its publisher was too ill to testify. But on an inside column of the same paper, Hedda Hopper indica- ted that publisher Nicholson was quite a gay blade. She told how he atended a party in the New York dressing room of Gertrude Law- rence, starring in “The King and 1, along with Kent Cooper, Mrs. Robert McCormick, Horne of the Rocky Mount, N. C. ‘Telegram Justice’ Department attorneys feel that if the Times-Picayune publisher was able to attend a theatrical party, he is well enough to appear in court. But they are wondering what publisher Nichol- son is saying to his copyreaders who failed to censor Hedda Hop- per’s column. War Criminal — The U. S.
