i Battalion Editorials BACK IN GOOD VOICE Page 2 FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1950 Chinese Reds Subpoenaed by UN . T ^HE Security Council of the U. N. ap proved by an 8 to 2 vote a resolution to call representatives of Red China to answer the blistering charges of U. S. delegate, War ren R. Austin. These charges were based on a recent report from Gen. Douglas Mac- Arthur. The U. N. Commander in Korea estimated that more than 30,000 troops have been thrown into the war alongside the remnants qf the North Korean army. This “alien” as sistance had been rumored for many weeks, but definite facts as to quantity are now available. Austin has called for an immediate halt to this illegal aid, and demanded withdraw al of Communist Chinese forces. The action of the Peiping regime, Austin continued, has raised the danger that the present conflict may not be limited to the Korean area. There is some speculation that a 20 mile “no man’s land'’ may be established as a buffer, but this will depend on many unpre dictable factors. Lack of cooperation on the part of the Chinese Communists, however, may force U. N. consideration of Gen. Mac- There is no law against courtesy, even at home and at the ivheel of a motor car.

Assuming, hov/ever, that Comrade Pearson has rooted out a pertinent prophecy from the Truman calculations, herewith is entered a protest. McGrath to the court and Black to the Chief Justiceship! Addition of the current Attorney General would not, it is admitted here, alter the level of ability of the present highest court. But an even better opportun ity exists for the President. Leave Hugo Black where he is and make Harry Vaughan Chief Justice.

By all means, Vaughan for Chief city, we painfully see that on this corps trip eve all news of this fair city of College Station is in an unquestionable lull. Not to be silent long, however, the walls of the city will be rocking during the late morning hours of the morrow (several hours before press time) with chants from members of the citizen’s committee to discuss better means of fire protection in College Station as they meet in the office of L. P. Gabbard at 11 a. m. Denton, Nov. 10—We of the Daily Lass-0 staff ventured down Aggie-way last weekend to see how the Cadets behave on home ground . . . and we were very impressed with the newest part of the home ground—MSC. The “Shamrock” of College Station is the best we’ve seen in a while. We weren't the only Tessic crew to embark southward for the week end. The college sent a boatload down to watch the Maroon and White squad practice on the “hawgs” and get ready to do the same to SMU on Corps Trip Sat urday. Yes, the Corps Trip. Prepara tions on this end of the line are in the final fast stages. Telegrams and phone calls saying “Where shall we meet?” are doubling in volume. Dates have changed for the first six times and the campus in general knows its almost here. There are facials, hair cuts and creams especially for lovely hands across the table.’ .

In his Ag- Building penthouse office, where the Agricul tural Economics and Sociology Department makes its home, the group will meet for the first time sihee appointed late last August. Gabbard told us today (Thursday) that the group will only outline their work at this first session and set about the task which was laid out to them via a petition presented to the city council by approximately 100 citizens wanting for better fire protection. Wliafs To Be Done? They didn’t say in their petition exactly what they want ed the council to do, but maybe through the work of these fine people who give their time and effort, some things that need to be done can be found. But in order to do something about fire protection methods in this city, there is only one way fo work. And that way is toward enlargement of the staff and facilities of the department. Naturally every town likes to have the best fire de partment possible. But with all the equipment made avail able to College Station partisans through the college, wc wonder if questioning the department’s adequacy is justi fied.

No; 9 is an important newcomer. It’s the Bell System’s new keyset for the direct dialing of Long Distance telephone calls. And, though not yet "national,” it already has "chapters” in more than 900 cities and towns. By pressing these keys, your operator can dial calls straight through to tele phones in many distant places. Calls go through faster, more accurately. Automatic dialing of Long Distance calls by operators, a development of the Bell Telephone Laboratories, is being extended steadily. This new method of putting through Long Distance calls is especially important right now, when the nation is counting on telephone service to help speed the job of defense.
