He said the answer is simply geography, that the countryside is jagged mountains and narrow ravines, which form a perfect defense line.

Mueller said he thought there were two compromises that would be necessary before the truce can start. He said the Chinese want to rebuild and repair their some 30-odd air bases in North Korea during the truce.

We can allow them three operating fields without losing our air superiority, Mueller said, and he thought the Reds would accept that. The U.N. wants to allow prisoners we hold to be allowed to decide whether they go back to Red China. Mueller said that according to the Geneva convention rules, that is not legally possible, and the U. N.

KOREA (API Allied truce negotiators suggested today, that the thorny question of airfield, construction be set aside temporarily and staff officers start work immediately on other details of policing a Korean armistice. 1 Chinese Maj.

'Basically, this is another effort of the U.N. command to achieve a realistic armistice as rapidly as possible," said Brig. Gen. William P. Nuckols, Allied spokesman.

He spoke in commemoration of the 39th anniversary of the International Kiwanis organization. He was introduced by Ralph Car-hart, program chairman. Building his theme around quotations from famous poems. The Rev. Mr.

Elliker dwelled upon the roads of virtue which lead to a life of happiness. From the lines of James Whitcomb Riley's "Aunt Mary" he pictured the "roads" of remembrance and faithful love, from Kipling's "Road to Mandalay" he drew adventure. Must Rededicate Selves "We must rededicate ourselves to the ideals of service and fellowship," he said, selecting these "roads" from the lines of Robert Frost, who said, "I took the one less traveled and that makes all the difference." The class of eight Marion County women, all natives of foreign countries who were granted their United States citizenship in Common Pleas Court proceedings a few minutes earlier, were special guests at the meeting. They were introduced by Judge Paul D. Smith, who also had as his guest Laszol Bonder, a native of Hungary who has been in this country for the past year.

Sandusky St. in Delaware. ney's policeman, was convicted today of murder in one of Chi cago's most sensational criminal cases.

A criminal court jury set Mo-retti's punishment at life imprisonment. The case has been in the public spotlight for five months. The state, in its second murder trial of the 33-year-old Moretti, had asked for the death penalty. The first trial ended with a deadlocked jury last Dec. 20.

The second jury deliberated five hours and 15 minutes before returning a decison. Other possible verdicts in the case were imprisonment for a fixed period of not less than 14 years and not guilty. Unmoved by Verdict Moretti appeared unmoved by the verdict. There was no demonstration in the courtroom which had been cleared of all spectators before the jury's verdict was read shortly before 1 a.m. (CST) today.

Defense attorneys said the case would be appealed "clear to the Supreme Court, if necessary." Hearing on a motion for a new trial was set for Feb. 5. Moretti, the father of four children by his first wife, was tried for the slaying last Aug. 24 of Arthur Gamino, 15-year-old West Side youth. Edward Salvi, 21, was killed in the same shooting ahd Leonard Monaco, 21, was wounded.

The three were shot as they sat in an automobile in a West Side vacant lot at Blue Island Ave. and Cabri ni St. Monaco was the state's chief witness in both trials. He testi fied that Moretti fired without provocation on him and the other two youths. Claims Self-Defense Moretti, a policeman since 1948, testified he fired at Salvi in self- defense after Salvi had accidentally shot Gamino.

He said he was in the neighborhood investigating illicit narcotics traffic. Earlier, he had been beaten and relieved of his gun in a saloon fight but testimony indicated none of the three shooting victims was involved. Monaco testified he and Salvi and Gamino found Moretti's gun in the vacant lot and gave it to him. Moretti then ordered them into the car and, Monaco testified, fired on them. A grand jury failed, by one vote, to indict Moretti.

There was an immediate cry of "whitewash." The Chicago crime commission termed the jury's action "a gross miscarriage of justice." There were weeks of angry, public debate before a grand jury was named and a special prosecutor appointed. 5-DAY WEATHER FORECAST Temperatures will average 4-8 degrees above normal.

If he had earned less than $1456, he would have been entitled to exactly one-half the total, whatever that might have been. JOE EARNED at least $671 in his best-paid quarter, which assured him of potential entitlement to $28 in weekly benefits.

If his wages in his best-paid quarter had been less than $671, he would have been entitled to receive from $10 to $28, according Cost of Living Due To Reach New High WASHINGTON (AP) The government's living cost barometer is due to go up again today to a new high. The consumers price index compiled by the bureau of labor statistics widely accepted as the government's best measuring rod on living cost changes has shown an almost unbroken upward glide all during 1950 and 1951. Today's latest revision was ex pected to show a nominal rise for mid-November. The average re tail price rise for moderate-income city families was due to be about one-half of one per cent higher in mid-December than a month earlier. The increase will mean an au- tomatic hike in the amount of wage increases allowed under the formula of the Wage Stabilization Board.

The board permits wages to go up 10 per cent from Jan-j uary 1950 levels, and allows on "HOW MUCH will I get?" Unemployed workers have been asking that question ever since the Ohio Bureau of Unemployment Compensation began to pay weekly benefits back in 1939. The question is a natural one, for every breadwinner who loses his job faces the big problem of paying for the necessities of life. Up until the first of this year, the BUC countered with another question: "How much did you earn?" Generally speaking, earn ings during the base period were the sole basis of determining a worker's maximum benefit amount, although this could not exceed $25 weekly for 26 weeks or two-thirds of his earnings, whichever was the lesser. Now, something new has been added. Besides the changed wage formula which hikes the maximum weekly benefit amount from 25 to $28, and the maximum benefit amount from $650 to $723, a new provision in the law requires a second decision on tha application for benefits, this one based on the reason why Joe Doakes, the worker, left any job in his base period.

THIS MAY BE a serious matter to Joe Doakes, who perhaps has forgotten that in 1951 he had a run-in with the boss and was fired. Men were in demand, and because Joe had no trouble in getting another job, he promptly forgot the whole thing. But it was in the record. Early in 1952, Joe was laid off for lack of work and he promptly filed an application for benefits. Both of Joe's base period employers were notified, and 'promptly responded with plete wage and separation infor mation.

On the basis of all the facts available, the BUC was able to make the first determination, based on wages alone. Mansfield Slayer Gets Life Term MANSFIELD, O. (AP) Clarence Christopher Cornwell, 34-year-old convicted slayer was sentenced to life imprisonment Thursday in the slaving of Mrs. Florence Davey, 79. Mrs.

Davey was beaten fatally and robbed last June 30 in her apartment in the D-vey Hotel, which she owned. Hr maid, Mrs. Jennie Moore, 75, also was severely beaten. Police said the two were beaten with a carpenter's plane, Police in London, Cornwell July 4 on an int. xica- tion charge.

Of course, if Joe had terminated each job for a good or valid rea- son such as being laid off for lack! of work, there would have been no change in the original deci- sion based on his wage record.
