Earth Takes Light
From Moon Tonight
NEW YORK HP) A celestial crime takes place to
night, in full view of millions. The earth is going to steal
the light of the moon. !
But the moon will be asking for it. Anyway its light
isn’t its property. It belongs to the sun.

DUNN, N. C., MONDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 18, 1954
With the sun behind It, the earth )
throws a shadow which is 867.000 t
miles long. By, passing through that
mighty shadow, the moon gets in
to a position where the earth takes
its borrowed light.
Time was when this periodical
eUpse of the moon scared people
plenty. It still does, wherever people
aren’t hep. For Americans it's one ■
of nature’s best shows. There is no
admission price, no tax. , |
CURTAIN TIME 1
Curtain time for the big act is (
7:80 p. m. EST. In the East, the j
moon will be well above the horl
son then. In the Central and Moun
tain Time »nes, the eclipsing will
be lower in the sky. In the Pacific j
tone, the moon will be partly clip- ,
sed when it gets above the horizon.
Eclipses are as regular as dock- <
wbrk, since the moon revolves el
liptlcally around the earth and the ,
earth, along with its moon, revol
ves elllptically around the sun. Thus
it has to be that every so often
the eagth comes between the sun
and the moon and eclipses the
moon or the moon gets between
the sun and the earth and eclipses
the sun.
Thera can be as many aa seven
eclipses (of moon and sun) to one
year, and as few ss two. The tost
total eclipse of the moon, which
was invisible in the East, was tost
July 36. The next total one vis
ible to this country will take place
Nov. 16, 1966.
GOOD TIMES?
So many American citizens have
never lived so wen before or so

India To Return 1
Anti-Red POWs '
As UN Planned
' PANMUNJOM, Korea (IPI
Gen. K. S. Thimayya in
dicated today he will go \
through with his plan to re
turn 22,200 anti-Red prison
ers to the United Nations
but warned the Allies not to
free their captives.
Thimayya, Indian chajrman of
the Neutral Nations Repatriation
Commission, said in an exclusive
interview he “may have to” re
lease the anti-Communists Wednes
day to avoid a “mass breakout."
He also said he expected the
Communists to refuse to take bacx
347 prisoners, including 21 Ameri
cans, on the ground they should
be held while a Korean peace con
ference deliberates their fate.
NO COMMENT
The Communists have not an
answered Thimayya’s request for a
reply to its announcement that he
will return all prisoners to their
afiead of the date set by the armls
captors Wednesday, three days
tice, and Thimayya said he may
have to hold these men tempor
arily.
Thimayya dispatched a note to
Gen. John E. Hull in Tokyo, warn
ing the U. N. supreme commander
that release of the prisoners be
fore the peace conferenc is held
will .be an armistice violation.
But Hull, who has completed
elaborate arrangements for accept
ance' of the anttiCotitoMtntof'North' »
Koreans and Chinese, Was expect
ed to ignore Thimayya’s warning.
ANSWER CLEAR
Hull already had made it clear
that the United Nations regards
midnight Jan. 22 as the absolute
deadline for detaining prisoners
and that his command will free
■ the men two days after receiving
| them.
I - It wrs announced in Tokyo that ;
Hull will fly to Korea Tuesday to
be on hand for the Wednesday
morning release. Advance Nation
alist Chinese parties already have
arrived on the peninsula to greet
the anti-Red Chinese and offer
them a new life on Formosa.
Thimayya said it was the “view”
of his commission that the U. N
and Communist commands must
agree on when to release the pris
oners or .hold them indefinitely un
til all “explanations" have been
completed and until the Korean
peace conference has debated their
fate 30 d .ys.
Tip to motorists: The seconds
you save by speeding may be
the first you spend in eternity.

cans as active working citizens in the next five years.
These were part of a basic five-point program Eisen
hower recommended to help relieve the “serious burden of
medical and hospital costs so that “the means of achiev
ing good health’’ will be accessible to all.”

the fields of cancer, mental illness,

2. Proposed a new approach to

financial capacities should receive
proportionately larger federal to

of the federal grants to states be d

3. Presented a four-way plan for
expanding construction of medical

BILL INTRODUCED >
Chairman Charles A. WWvertqn
(R-NJ) of the House Commerce 4
Committee already has tortoduced
a federal re-insurance bill which
calls for government guarantees on
the benefits of acceptable health
Insurance plans. This would be gins- |
liar to the federal guarantee *o
bank deposits through the federal
Deposit Insurance Corp.
In laying down his health recom
mendations, Eisenhower rejected
“the sociailization of medicine. -
But he said the government could
well commit itself to “certain na
tional health goals."
"No nation and no administration
can ever afford to be complacent
about the health of its citizen*,*
Eisenhower said. “While continuing
to reject the government regimen
tation of medicine, we shall wBR
vigor and imagination contlnuooe
!y search out by appropriate meapA
recommend, and put into effect new
methods of achieving better health . ,
for all oT our people.” s»
Concerned because the total Pri
vate medical Mil of the nation nmr
exceeds nine billion dollars a year,
Eisenhower proposed that the gmr
emment launched a “limited” re-ilh
suranc* service.
PURPOSE OP PLAN
Purpose of this plan would bg
to encourage private and non-pro
fit health insurance organizations
to offer broader health protectidh
to more families” 3L
“This service” he said, “woujß

risks involved to such broader pro
tection.” ' v->
