Ike Turns Cameraman II Congress Tariff rges Slash International Nwi Service WASHINGTON President Eisenhower asked today for power to reduce tariffs to help build strong allies. He renewed his request of last year for a three-year extension of the Reciprocal Trade Act with authority to cut tariffs as much as 15 percent. O11 The Brighter Side The recommendations, outlined in a special message to Capitol Hill, are expected to touch otf the first major hassle of the new Congress, where battle lines already are drawn over the tariff issue.

Strongest opposition to the President's plan comes from the protectionist bloc of the Republican Party, which succeeded in postponing the overhauling of the Tariff Act during the last session of Congress. Most Democrats are expected to support the President's tariff proposal, which carries forward the reciprocal trade program launched hv Roosevelt.

Cavalry Rides Again In 'Copter WASHINGTON (AP) -The U.S. army is calling on the old cavalry to ride again, mounting helicopters instead of horses to scout the enemy on battlefields of the atomic age. Men and machines of the first squadron of the 'new flying cavalry are being as-assembled to go through their training paces at Fort Bragg, N.C., early this spring. Old-line troopers combined their fading memories of horse cavalry exploits with the atomic warfare tactii ians' demands for dispersion and extreme mobility in planning the new unit. The first squadron will be organized with about 200 men, formed in three troops and a small, mobile headquarters.

Their mounts will include 15 or 16 light and elusive two-man helicopters, six or eight larger rotary-wing craft and a number of liht tanks or self-propelled guns. After the last horse cavalry unit was disbanded in 1944, cavalry disappeared from the United States Army battle order except in the-name of the 1st Cavalry Division, a designation retained for historical and sentimental reasons by that infantry outfit. Army officers say that neither the infantry nor the armored forces were always too happy about the recon-noitering scouting work done bv earthbound tanks in World War Two. When the rugged terrain of Korea halted the scouting tanks in their tracks the armv undertook a serious re-study of old cavalry manuals. i admitting the Friday evening kidnapping of Joel Robert Katz, a youth he met when they both worked at a summer camp at 1 Lackawaxcn, Pa.

Dan Matheson joined the King Edward as a mess boy. Over the years he climbed steadily up the ladder of promotion, until he became chief engineer. Captains and crew ra I come and went, but Dan and the King Edward seemed to be inseparable.

No man living knows the vagaries of the Fraser River better than Dan Matheson, its currents and Us shoals nd its depths, from Harrison to the sandheads. His seafaring has not been confined solely to the river, for the King Edward has traveled quite a bit ir her day. One of her first jobs was to fill up James Bay, where the Empress Hotel in Victoria stands today. She has dredged the harbor at Nanaimo, at Squamish and Powell River. 'She helped make the False Creek fill where the CNR "station stands, and she deepened the First Narrows.

Big Sumas Job One of the most interesting jobs, Dan recollects, was the creation of the Vedder Canal, near Chilliwack, which was part of the great Sumas reclamation scheme. In all those 48 years Dan Matheson made friends, for he is a big gentle friendly man, and not one of those friends was ever lost. Last Friday night, the entire staff of the Dominion public works department, based at New Westminster, gathered to do honor to Dan Matheson in his retirement. The big home of Capt. W.

J. Gilmore, at Steveston, present skipper of the King Edward was jammed to overflowing by well-wishers, as presentations were made to Mr. and Mrs Matheson. The feelings of the gath-' ering were expressed by C. F.

P. Faulkner, district engineer of the department of public works, who said Dan Matheson had never done Job that was not well done, and he had never failed to win respect and friendship. In his retirement, Mr. Matheson hopes to keep up his keen interest in the Boy Scout movement, in his church and his lodge, and perhaps do a little traveling.

Neither of the descriptions is wholly accurate.

It can be said confidently that the south is not as weak as it has been portrayed and the north nowhere as strong. Many people have predicted that In the general elections scheduled for 19j6 under the Geneva agreements the Vlct-minh will win hands down. Evidence Is accumulating, however, that should these elections be carried out In strict secrecy a very considerable portion of the population of the Viet-ihinh regions would give a majority to the government of Premier Ngo Dinh Diem. This prophecy has been made by a high French official In Hanoi who ha studied the reactions of the Viet-namefl since Ihe Vletmlnh took aver la October. Though there is little room for rosy optimism In the south, some solid progress has been made in recent weeks In resolving the overwhelming difficulties which first faced the Diem government.

The south now is relatively calm but continues to be divided by rivalries among the various religious sects and parties, each of which maintains its own private army. In recent weeks they have shown a tendency to co-operate with the government, largely because, if they do not, they will not receive the funds they need to keep their military establishments Intact The czar of Saigon's legalized vice told me the government is padlocking the lucrative gambling houses he com trols, in a new drive against corruption.
