Wednesday Nov. Believe ROW Issue Debate Just Stall by Communists By PHIL NEWSOM United Press Foreign News Editor There is a growing suspicion that the Communists haven't yet named their real price- for ending the they eventually could take over the whole fighting line which then would remain at or near the 38th Parallel. me Force, in any event, is costly war in Korea. land so the diplomatic approach In other words, that the debate still seems the best and cheapest over the prisoner of war issue is if there is any hope for, success. But the very fact that we are openly anxious for a truce has increased Communist arrogance, and adds to the price of peace.

Rochester For Subscription Service of the Logansport Newspapers in Rochester call Rochester News Agency Tel. 256 just another stall, which, even if settled on Communist terms wouldn't end the conflict. And since, neither on the battlefield nor at the truce talks, do we possess, the initiative, we still must wait upon the Reds' convenience. It is in an attempt to gain the initiative that President-elect Eisenhower plans to visit the battle zone. The problem that faces him is both military and diplomatic.

Two theories lend support to the belief that, despite all the hue and cry, the prisoner issue is not the real one.

Incidentally, the same belief was voiced months ago by Vice Adm Showley, operator of a gas station nearby, discovered the window broken about 7:00 a. m. Monday and notified the authorities.

The break-in occurred sometime after 2:30 o'clock Monday morning, after the place of business had been closed for the.night. The S400 represented receipts over the week end.

On the stalemated battlefronf the President-elect will find this situation: Six American divisions, a British Commonwealth division, assorted smaller forces from some nine other United Nations and the equivalent of 14 to 15 South Korean divisions, two -of which have just been added. Militarily it would seem Eisenhower has two choices.

One would be to step up the military pressure, possibly including an all-out U.N. offensive.

In peacetime It will be the most luxurious private vessel in the world. But all the breathtaking conveniences, from the azure swimming pool to the theater and children's playroom, have been designed for quick conversion to some other use if war should come. The yacht is' being constructed under a vast glass roof by the John Brown's Shipyard in Scotland.

It will be 380 feet long, 55 feet in the beam and its twin screws will drive it at 21 knots The yacht will cost more than 1,000,000 pounds Every modern- safety device and a lot of things still on the secret lists have been incorporated into the may be namec the King George by. its Admiralty designers. But through the luxury runs the grim thread of the ship's possible future destiny. Tlie staterooms are particularly spacious, but can be made into lospital wards in a matter of lours. corridors are unusually wide grandparents and Mr.

and Mrs. Vernon Scott are the paternal grandparents. that stretchers can be carried through more easily. There is a magnificent ballroom and reception room, both designed to serve as operating ampithea- ters if necessary. The queen will have a' two-car garage aboard, big enough for the royal limousines, or for ambulances.

In peacetime the yacht will be the. sort of ship even the wealthiest Britons can only dream about in these days of high taxation. The beds in the staterooms will be suspended from ballbearing fixtures in the ceiling so that the pitch or roll of the ship will not affect sleep. The staterooms will have full-sized windows instead of portholes. The ship will have its own water distilling plant, automatic deck scrubbers, an all- electric gadget-filled kitchen, a playroom for Prince Charles and Princess permanent waving machines and its own chapel.

The masts and lifeboats are made of aluminum to save weight. The thousands of plates forming the hull were all X-rayed for flaws and then welded edge to edge. There are so many water-tight bulkheads that the 'ship is considered virtually unsinkable. The yacht will have a handpicked crew of 150 Royal Navy sailors.
