Latin Amer icans were told that the Colombian president.

N. and Communist armies along the 135-mile Korean war front. BTILL BLOCKED For the sixth day, the negotia tions were stalled by a Commu- j nlst demand that the zone be fixed along the 38th Parallel instead of the present front, which is almost entirely in North Korean territory. What “drastic action' might be taken to break the deadlock no body would forecast. There seemed to be no thought of breaking off the talks. It was known at the start that the negotia tions would be tedious apd that the Communists would bargain hard for the 38th Parallel line. That would give them an enormous ad vantage because it affords no good defense territory for the U. N. armies.

J Flood Relief Funds j Sought In Harnett II New Device Used In Tests The Department of Motor Ve hicles is now using a new device known as an Ortha-ratur, in test ing the vision for driver’s licenses. It is said 1 that this procedure is much more efficient in uncovering defective vision than the old letter chart system. Since this new procedure of vis ion checking by driver’s license ex aminers has been in use, profess ional eye examiners have been getting numerous requests from the general public for eye examinations and glasses that will enable them to secure their driving license. This would seem to indicate that the new tests are contributing a worth while service toward Highway saf ety.
