Train Li “You just can’t find a youngster today who has the necessary qua- lities for a wild animal trainer, They’re attracted\by the glamour of the profession, but won’t put in the required hours of hard work,” lamented the world’s most famous wild animal trainer, who ig cur- rently running his lions and tigers through their paces in “Ring of Fear,” a Wayne-Fellows Cinema- Scope production for Warner Bros., which opens Wednesday at the Strand Theatre. He also has one of the star acting roles in the pic- ture. “I’ve placed ads. in the newspa- pers and made concerted searches for a potential lion tamer. How- ever, none of the applicants have a real love of the job. One man applied because he wanted to es- cape an unhappy marriage. He figured it was safer working in a cage with savage beasts than liv- ing with his wife. Another wanted to woo his wife back and believed bravado in a lion cage would do the trick. I've even had some wom- en ‘apply for the job. “However, you can’t become a competent lion trainer overnight any more than you can suddenly become President of a corporation. You must work up to it. I started asa cage boy, just feeding the lions for two years. That is the best way to learn about animals before stepping into the big cage with them. Each cat has a per- sonality of its own and you'd bet- ter be familiar with it.” “T've still to find the young man fd be. willing to leave in a cage with a group of angry lions. They just don’t have the instinctive knowledge of ‘the animals. “Possibly one reason for today’s dearth of up and coming young lion trainers is modern youth’s de- sire for security.

The French action posed a new threat to West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer’s government, which had banked heavily on EDC to provide the means toward in+ dependence which the German "3 people have been demanding more and more insistently, Adenauer’s chief opponent, So- cialist- leader Erich Ollenhauer was quick to assert that the French vote meant Adenauer’s policy had failed. ‘The opposition chief called to : Soviets : poset oe le once with iE said there were ways of rearming and hé would seek allies to ag Rees deputies who have who have voted is a majority favor- it of the of our ties with ” he told news- this framework that y should be studied rapidly, and I hope this time we will not lose three years.” But the Assembly victory of EDC’s opponents — with whom the Premier seemed to side and at any rate did not oppose — did not mean Mendes-France would find it any easier to line up ready support for some new German rearma- ment scheme. His failure to oppose the resolu- tion cutting off debate after only the opponents had spoken provoked a core of bitter foes with whom he will have to deal in future legisla- tive efforts. The angriest perhaps was a vet- eran independent and former Pre- mier, Paul Reynaud, who fought his way to the tribune during the post-vote tumult to denounce the throttling of the debate. Eisenhov: -r Says U.S, Will Continue Fight For Free World Security Despite Setbacks DENVER (# — President Eisen- hower last night called the French Parliament’s scuttling of the Euro- Pean army project “‘a serious set- back.” But he declared the United States never will quit the fight for free world security against any Communist threat. “We have our setbacks, we are disappointed. But we vaust not be Ei t spoke of EDC as “‘a Parsee the free world could establish, without indulging in the traditional fights among themselves in Western Europe, se- curity from any threat from with- out.” Then, with former President Hoover on the speaker's stand be- hind him, he said: “This proposal was established discouraged,” the President said|to allow Germany — Western Ger- emphatically in a speech at the|™any — to enter into defensive Towa State Fair in Des Moines, | alliances without any danger what- Eisenhower learned of the French Assembly’s rejection of the European Defense Community plan for a six-nation army as he and Secretary’of State Dulles were in conference on another matter in Washington yesterday. and Dulles immediately agreed that the chief executive would disc’ the development in @ general way in his Des Moines address. They also agreed that Dulles would issue a statement in Wash- ington today sétting forth in more detail official U.S. reaction to French shelving of EDC. The President then flew from Washington to Des Moinés, where State fair officials estimated a crowd of about 25,000 persons heard him speak off the cuff. soever that it would be in a posi- tion to start a war or, indeed, to engage in any kind of aggression. “Because of these characteris- ties’ of this plan, the U.S., Great Britain and all the Western nations stood for it and approved this great French plan. “Now, there is no disguising the fact that this is a serious setback. But what I want to say to you people is this: The free world is still overwhelmingly strong, as compared to the Iron Curtain coun- tries, in the people we have, in their levels of ititelligence and un- derstanding, in their ° skills, in agriculture and in industry.” The crowd jammed in the grand- stand and the area to either side of it listened quietly and intently | when the President declared: “We must never be dis- Historic Epic Told In Fi At Islander Spectacular adventure with a sense of history to match its sense of drama, “Two Flags West,” which opens here at the Islander Theatre today is one of the proud cinematic accomplishments of the Present year. Its bold and or- iginal story of a little known irony of the Civil War, its authentic and visually mégnifi‘ent New Mexico location scenes, its visual paspants of Civil War battlers embroiled in the terrors of Indian fighting, and above all’its luminous starring Players render “Two Flags West” an individuality and position of rank accorded few outdoor thrillers of the past. “Two Flags West” is indeed, topnotch entertainment. It is difficult to know which of the four top players delivers the most stirring performance. All are superb. Each emerges as a definite, sharply etched character- ization of the most vivid kind. Joseph Cotten, long one of the suavest of polished performers, re- wards his smoothness of ability with a new kind of ruggedness of role. Asthe Confederate Colonel granted amnesty by a Northern Captain if he will be drafted to fight Indians in the West, Cotten is the dominant personality. In the major feminine part of a Fort widow, the beauteous Linda Darnell, with three men in her life, continues to lengthen. the line of great performances she has been giving in “A Letter to Three Wives” and “No Way Out.” To Jeff Chandler,. already established as one of the most accomplished of newer screen stars through his brilliant work in “Broken Arrow,” falls the actor’s cherished op- Portunity to switch from noble Indian to Indian fighter.

We will not . We shall never do so.” The President and Hoover got a standing ovation when they mounted the speaker's stand after spending about 15 minutes inspect- ing prize livestock. In his speech, Eisenhower said the United States must have friends because “‘we know that the central core of the great world problem is the aggressive intent of international communism.” Hammering at the importance of collective security in the face of that situation, he said: “If the free world does not hang —————_a ‘The WINNER of the 3-Day Tour to Hayana is Eddie Gomez, 720 Duval Street. aaa eae tte, Se ea El Pasaje Restaurant together, then the unity of commu- nism, achieved by force, by the use of the police outside your door and the spy inside your home, that unity will take oné nation at a time, beginning with the most ex- posed, and subdue it,” Then, repeating what he told the American Legion convention in Washington earlier yesterday, he said such a course would lead eventually to isolation of America. The crowd cheered when he added that must never occur—“We shall not let it occur.” And he de- elared: “All this world needs — all this free world needs — to be safe is a united approach to the problem of security and defense.” He also appealed for unity at home on American foreign policy. Eisenhower and Hoover flew to Denver immediately after the chief executive concluded his address. Today they travel from the Sum- mer White House here to Fraser, Colo., for three days of. trout fishing.
