Seventh District Congressman F.
Ertel Carlyle pf Lumberton. in an
address here Saturday afternoon,
alvocated compulsory military
training for both high school and
college students to keep the draft
from crippling educational institu
tions and said he is considering of
fering such a bill if the House Mili
tary‘Affairs Committee fals to do
ao.
He also told the cheering veter
ans of the famed 81st “Wildcat” In
fantry Division, assembled here in
annual reunion, that unless perma
nent and lasting peace can be nego
tiated in Korea immediately, he
favor* “all-out wav ”
*1 am*TJßperoir ft* said, TSht
they (the Beds) an sincere and
genuine, but if they don’t accept
our proposals, then I’m in favor of
making them wish they had.”
Branding the war in Korea as
“World War in," Congressman
Carlyle said he oouldn’t understand
why citizens hesitated to refer to
the war in its actual term.
Outttnes Alternatives
He declared that the present ac
tion cannot go on forever, that it
must be concluded either by a set
tlement on United Nations terms
or all-out war. The solon remind
ed that of the 360,000 troops fight
ing in Korea, 300,000 are American
troops.
Congressman Carlyle said he fav
ored compulsory military training
since nothing else has been ad
vanced to take the place of it and
because he felt that high schools,
junior colleges and universities
“must not be crippled by the draft.”
Under Carlyle’s proposal, high
school students “of sufficient age”
and college students would be given
military training from June 10 un
til Sept. 10 of each summer. This,
he pointed out, would enable them
to continue their education.
Carlyle said that he thought high
school students should be taughf
the dangers of war and how to
protect themselves in event of at
tack.
But the military and war must
not under any circumstances be
glorified, and we must not let the
military get control.”
Changed rein

had changed his mind about com
pulsory training and that he prevl

DUNN, N. C . MONlilf, JULY 2, 1951
—:— V.
Diplomats Take
Back Seat In
Negotiations
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y„
July 2—(Hl—United . Nations
diplomats, most of them pta
zled and some alarmed, plai
ned today to take a back
seat until the military auth
orities work o(it an armis
tice in Korea.
The puzzlement and alarm arose
from the unexpected action of the
Communist in delaying the start at
the Korean cease-fire calks until
sometime between July 10 and Ik
The general expectation had been
that North Korea and Communist
China would have agreed to imme
diate truce talks, and some diplo
mats believed that UN Supreme
Commander Gen. Matthew B.
Ridgway should Insist on a earl
ier start on humanitarian grounds.
They argued that a cease-fire—at
least a temporary one—was a cer
tainty once the militarists get to
gether and that any delay in start-
Ov»*v» US uwU W“
ing talks would result in needless
killing of troops of both sides.
May Trap Armies
The alarmists, whose ranks in
cluded Nationalist China’s Tingftr
F. Tsiang and South Korea’s one
time Foreign Minister Ben C. Limb,
warned that the Communists might
use the next week to 10 days to
build up reserves to catch Ridg
way’s UN forces off balance in a
new attack If the cease-fire nego
tiations fall.
Battlefield developments, how
ever. appeared not to support eith
er argument. The fighting zone was
relatively quiet and UN patrols
maintained ceaseless light probing
action that was certatp to obtain
ample warning of any Communist
bund-up.
Secretary-General Trygve Lie and
other top UN officials "continue to
express optimism” about a relative
ly quick cease-fire agreement, ac
cording to spokesmen at the world’
organization. But none had a raftd
add fast answer to the puzzle pi
why the , Communists insisted qa
flaying' the truce talks. V-w***At
May Be Bargaining
Best guesses ran to these theo
ries:
1. The Coriimunists might be in
dulging in nothing more than “old
fashioned bargaining” in insisting
on their own date.
2. The Communists need time
to coordinate their negotiating
strategy among Moscow, Peiping
Pyongyang.
3. There may be real friction be
tween Peiping, and Moscow which
must be healed in order to present
a common front in the talks.
