AVY SECRETARY SAYS
by Nancy Cline
You’re driving along Figueroa. You’ve stayed late at school and you’re tired. Half a block from the intersection, the traffic light ahead turns yellow. Can you make it through the intersection before the light turns red? Or should you step on the brake ar.d slow down?
Wrong reaction to the yellow traffic light causes many intersection accidents, according to L.A. Police Traffic Of- {^ ficer Oscar Webb.	-s-	/	/-»	,

Cold War Worse Than Atomic One
By Charlie Barnett Daily Trojan Editor
RIVERSIDE, Dec. 14—Secre-ary of the Navy Charles S. homas believes the greatest dan-er to free world security in the ext decade is not a hot atomic ar but a continued cold war. The Navy secretary spoke at he World Affairs Institute here on ight.
“In my opinion the greatest nd most immediate danger to he security of the free world lies hreat of	it and	its awful	conse-
uences.	but in	the	long	range
tential	of the	cold	war	which
ould ultimately isolate us and ave us to face a hostile Com-unist world alone,” Secretary homas said.
“I do not believe the danger of global war is now great,” the ■’retary	said. “The	free	world
too strong and our potential lemy is too weak for the latter hope to win.”
“Effective sea power underlies effective defense of the free prla,” he said, adding that he lieves sea power unites us with ie free world and no type or
size of war can be won without it.
At a Mission Inn press conference this afternoon, the Navy secretary said that if the Communist Chinese try to invade Formosa. “they'll get a bloody nose, in my opinion.” He said he believes the Seventh Fleet—“a very strong fleet”—is in a position to carry out any assignment the President may give it.
Secretary Thomas emphasized the effectiveness of giant aircraft carriers such as the recently launched James F. Forrestal which he called “a moving air-base.” He stressed a balance of ground air bases complimented by such seagoing air bases as the Forrestal in producing military’ air strength.
Thomas deplored the large drop in Navy re-cnlistments in the past year. He said Congress will be requested to increase the pay and dependents benefits in order to add incentive for Navy career men.
Most motorists react correctly to the red and green lights but the yellow light receives varied response, he said.
“Instead of slowing down when the light turns yellow,” Webb said, “many drivers speed up, causing a dangerous situation.”
According to Webb, many accidents take place because of drivers misuse the yellow light.
Driver A sees a traffic light turn yellow up ahead of him and 1 instead of slowing down, he steps on the accelerator; half way through the intersection the light turns red. Driver B, waiting to the right of Driver A, has been watching Driver A’s yellow light instead of his own. which is red. He “ ium; s the gun,” rolls into the intersection, and crashes into Driver A.
“The yellow light is a warning to the driver that he has only I three or four seconds to get j through the intersection,” Webb said.
The cautious motorist will slow ! up. come to a stop, and wait for the light to turn green again.
“Speed is the main intersection j hazard,” Webb said. “Slow up,
| don’t speed up, when the lighl i turns yellow.”

'Warning After TNE Expose
Powerful SC underground political organization TXE, obviously worried over Mark Thoreson’s TXE expose in his column yesterday, invaded the DT offices during tlie quiet lunch hour, leaving a letter of
warning.
The note, picked up by Thoreson as he entered the DT feature office read, "Thoreson— Stop your column on TXE. We don’t like it. Write any more at your own risk. We are warning you!”
The note was in reference to comments in “Mark Time!” which unveiled some little-known facts about the organization's political meetings and how its “outlawing” has worked to produce more effective results.	^
No factual indications were given as to who had left the note. Few staff members were working on the DT at that time.
One particular name is under definite suspicion, however, and the handwriting is being checked' with his signature in the university files.
“This is only the first step in drawing back the curtain that hides TXE,” Thoreson said.
Complete Overhaul Predicted
By Maggie Christensen
Leroy M. Edwards, adjunct professor of business administration at SC, was nominated yesterday as the new Air Pollution Control Officer for Los Angeles County, immediately following the resignation of former smog chief Gordon P. Larson.
The resignation was the first step in a complete overhaul in smog control administration by the County Board of Supervisors. Larson will step down to the office of Director of Research and Engineering at the SIT,496 salary he received as smog chief. However, Edwards will receive $19,-500 if he is approved.
The 69-year-old professor, now in his second year at SC, was given an honorary doctorate in business administration by the School of Commerce last June.
Born and raised in Los Angeles County, he received his AB at Stanford University. He was responsible for the establishment of a course in managerial policies for seniors in the SC’s School of Commerce.
He has served as vice-president and general counsel for the Southern Counties Gas Company since 1915 and in the same positions at the Southern California Gas Company since 1938, and vice-president and general manager for the Pacific Lighting Corporation since 1940; he also acts as president of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, the Pacific Coast Gas Association, and the Greater Los Angeles Plans Corporation. He is a member of the Los Angeles, California, and National Bar Associations.
Actions by the Board in organizing the new administration included the approval of a report by Chief Administrative Officer Arthur J. Will and County Counsel Harold W\ Kennedy criticizing Larson’s reorganization plan; a refusal, 3-2, to approve the demand of Supervisor John Anson Ford that Larson receive “consideration and protection.” and that the new chief be required to submif any differences that he has with Larson after his appointment to the Board for arbitration; and an assurance that the Board now has no intention of firing Larson from his new position in the adminis+ration.
The County Administrative Officer was instructed to take 30 days for inquiry into the available candidates after Supervisor Roger Jessup entered Edwards’ name.

DR. HANS J. M07.C ! :*] AU . . . here today ★ ★ ★ Commies Get New Chances, Expert Says
RIVERSIDE, Dec. 14 - The Revolutionary ferment which holds much of Asia. Africa and Latin America in its grip owes little to Communism, but has presented Communist strategy with a new opportunity Dr. Hans J. Morgenthau told the World Affairs Institute here tonight.
The University of Chicago foreign affairs expert said this ferment is primarily the result of the breakdown of colonial and semi-colonial rule and of the national and social awakening of the peoples of the so-called underdeveloped areas of the world.
“Yet Communism, as practiced in Moscow' and Peiping,” Mor-ganthau said, “has tried — with considerable success—to take hold of these revolutionary movements and guide them into channels advantageous to the interests of Russia and China.”
