Free Person Will Reject Communism-Birjandi
"Communism cannot be defeated by arms. It is an idea," said Amir Birjandi, educator from Iran, in his talk last Thursday on "the Containment of Communism in the Middle East."
Mr. Birjandi said that the free person with some land and education will reject communism because, even though he may be living poorly, he will still be living at a level at least equal to that of the communists and will have his freedom also.
In telling of the programs now being carried out in his country to defeat communism, Mr. Birjandi said that no country can be totally independent. All countries are concerned with the affairs of each other. He then explained that Iran has been in the center of the civilized world for hundreds of years.
He said that Iran is a poor country, and poverty leads to ignorance. This ignorance results in many desires of the people being unfulfilled and it is on these desires that the communist propagandists build their case for communism.
By Birjandi said that while the people are poor the country is rich. Therefore a program of rural development is being started and the land is being distributed among the people. An intermediate bank has been set up to buy the land from the feudal landowners and then sell the land to the farmer at 80 per cent of its value, to be paid over a period of 25 years. Along with this move is another project of education of the farmer.
Mr. Birjandi, in speaking of education in Iran, said that the Americans have done more than any other country toward educating the people of Iran. He said that American schools were set up more than 130 years by missionaries and though their primary motive was religious, their unselfishness gave
the United States a place of high respect in the country.
Mr. Birjandi, on a six-week lecture tour of this country, came to the University under the sponsorship of the department of political science.
Cables Cut In Algiers
Algiers — (U,P)— Terrorist saboteurs cut the underground cable which carries all telephone and telegraphic traffic between Algeria and Morocco early today, cutting off communications between the two most important parts of French North Africa.
At the same time police seized the entire press run of the newspaper Algiers Republican which lists itself as "independent." No immediate explanation was made.
The cable was severed in Oran between Marnia and Turenne, near the Moroccan border. Police said it was "unquestionably" an act of sabotage.
The cable-cutting was by far the most serious act of sabotage committed in the outburst of nationalist violence in Algeria. It indicated organizers of the uprising were not striking in hapazhard fashion.
In the embattled Aures mountains of southeastern Algeria, terrorists consistently have chopped down telephone poles as fast as they were replaced.
Burma has the highset snake bite death rate in the world, with 15.4 deaths per 100,000 population.
Chief defense counsel William J. Corrigan peeked away at the premise that the state's medical examiner who made the post mortem examination of the body got it all wrong when he reported Mrs. Sheppard was killed by a series of skull-cracking blows from a heavy instrument.
He suggested Mrs. Sheppard could have died by inhaling blood (her lungs, when examined, were found to be heavy with absorbed blood), or she just possibly could have been poisoned.
In cross-examining Dr. Lester Adelson, the deputy coroner who made the autopsy, Corrigan has implied he believes the beating the 31-year-old pregnant housewife received was done by a many-pronged instrument.
Death Weapon Is Trial Topic
Mr. Corrigan, slowly, carefully implanting in the jurors' minds a series of doubts that—if reasonable—could save Dr. Samuel Sheppard from the electric chair, has claimed the autopsy was bungled.
Cleveland —(U,P)— Who not—what—killed Marilyn Sheppard was the courtroom topic today as the murder trial of her osteopath-surgeon husband entered its fourth week.
Dr. Adelson was the first state witness in the first-degree trial of the 30-year-old doctor who says he was knocked out by a bushy-haired man who had beaten his wife to death in her bed in the pre-dawn darkness of last July 4.
On re-direct examination, Prosecutor John J. Mahon is expected to question Dr. Adelson about the "time of death." Police have indicated they believe Marilyn Shepard could have been killed as earl; as 3 a.m. Her husband did not report it until shortly before 6 a.m. Dr. Adelson, as a pathologist, could estimate how long she had been dea

75 Cadets Take Advantage Of AFROTC Flying Program
Marilyn revealed shortly after she and DiMaggio separated that she planned to undergo the operation, but yesterday she said the surgery had nothing to do with the breakup.
Hollywood —(U.P.)—Marilyn Monroe planned to undergo a minor operation today, with Joe DiMaggio, her freshly-divorced husband, waiting faithfully outside her hospital room door. The ballplayer, although given the legal boot by the shapely blonde in a divorce court two weeks ago, stayed all night at Cedars of Lebanon hospital so he could be on hand when Marilyn was wheeled to the operating room.
Star Enters Hospital
She said she had put off the operation, "overdue for years," until the end of shooting "The Seven Year Itch" because her co-star, Tom Well, had to return to New York. In the "show-must-go-on" tradition, the actress finished work on the picture yesterday.
Seventy-five AFROTC cadets at the University took advantage of the detachment's flying orientation program during the first two months of the school year.
Marilyn said she had been sick to her stomach and "not feeling so hot" all day. But she gambly struck sexy poses and smiled for advertising photographs in the studio still, gallery until 3:30 p.m.
She insisted then that DiMaggio would not visit her in the hospital and shrugged, "Why should he?"
But DiMaggio brought Marilyn to the hospital at 6:55 p.m. In true Monroe style, she was three hours late in making the hospital's 4 p.m. deadline for surgery patients.

"Maybe Mr. Corrigan knows what the weapon was. We don't know. We haven't got any eyewitnesses on our side."

STARTS
Designed to familiarize the student with the feeling of being airborne, the program was initiated in the spring of 1953 but has gained considerable interest and impetus this year.
A simplified operational setup is chiefly responsible for the new interest. Each week end approximately 30 cadets can be accommodated on three flights, of 10 cadets each, at the Olathe Naval Air station.
Cadets may take the two-hour flights on a first come, first served basis, regardless of cadet rank. Members of the Air Force Reserve Troop Carrier Wing stationed at Olathe fly the C-46's, but occasionally the cadets get a brief trial at the controls.
This year's improved interest can be illustrated by the fact that approximately 150 cadets took advantage of the program last year, while over half of that number have already participated this fall. Basic cadet Allan Harris, fine arts freshman, has already taken two flights this year "I think all of the fellows on both flights learned a lot, Harris said. "Probably the most valuable part of the flight is in putting the boys at ease who have never ridden in an airplane."
