Army Rule
In Okinawa
WASHINGTON (AP) President
Kennedy restricted U.S. military
rule over Okinawa Monday but
declared this nation must continue
to govern the Japanese-owned Ry-
ukyu islands to deter Communist
threats.
In a statement and new execu-
tive order designed to ease pres-
sure for immediate restoration to
Japan of the strategic Ryukyu is-
land chain of which Okinawa is
a part the President said:
I recognize the Ryukyus to be
a part of the Japanese homeland
and look forward to the day when
the security interest of the free
world will permit their restora-
tion to full Japanese sovereignty.
Stressing the military import-
ance of U.S. bases on Okinawa and
other Ryukyu islands he said
They help us assure our allies in
the great arc from Japan through
Southeast Asia not only of our will-
ingness but also of our ability to
come to their assistance in case
of need.
To give the 800000 Ryukyu is-
landers a greater voice in the man-
agement of their own affairs the
President:
1. Provided for a U.S. civilian
instead of a military man to be
civil administrator under Lt. Gen.
Paul Caraway the U.S. high com-
missioner and commander of U.S.
forces in the Ryukyus.
2. Restricted the veto powers of
the high commissioner over acts
of the Ryukyu legislature to cases
affecting the security and national
interest of the United States. lie

"All Fall Down Receives
Praise As "Art Realism
Three Deaths
Boost Record
Three mere persons died Monday
of injuries received in Oklahoma
traffic accidents. On one the High-
way Patrol made only tentative
identification because the body was
so badly burned.
The deaths increased the state
toll for 1962 to 129 or seven more
than at the same time a year ago
One victim was tentatively iden-
tified as William Colie Williams 59
Oklahoma City.
The other victims were:
Mrs. Barbara Woods 29 Law-
ton. The Rev. John Paul Barton 69
Tulsa.
Mrs. Woods and the tentatively
identified male motorist died in the
collision of a station wagon and car
south of Newcastle on U.S. 62. The
two victims were in different ve-
hicles. Earlier in the day the Rev. Mr.
Barton died of injuries received in
a traffic mishap Sunday at Tulsa.
HOLLYWOOD Holly
wood wouldnt need a new wave
if it could make more films like
All Fall Down. The new pic-
ture is as frank and realistic as
any of the European art films yet
without that phony artness that
many of them have.
All Fall Down also differs
from the European movies and
the Tennessee Williams school
here in that it takes a hard view
of modern life but does not wal-
low in hopelessness.
By now you should get the idea
that All Fall Down is not for
children. It isnt. It is for dis-
cerning adults who like their
movies well-acted.
The slim plot concerns a fam-
ilys idolatry of the eldest son
a no-good drifter with a penchant
for attracting and then beating up
women. Eva Marie Saint is fine
as the ultimate victim of his
cruelty and Angela Lansbury
and Karl Malden are capital as
the bewildered parents.
In his third starring film role
Warren Beatty' plays his familiar
character: the inarticulate young
male with a time bomb in his
head lie explodes regularly but
the films one weakness is in not
explaining why.
Brandon d i Wilde gets fifth
billing but he actually is the No.
1 strength of All Fall Down.
His earnest charm at 19 is as
winning as it was at 10 in
Shane.
Black Tights is specialized en-
tertainment for devotees of t h e
dance. Theyll see no better danc-
ing of the modern-ballet school all
wrapped up with elegant and imag-
inative settings.
The film is the creation of the tal-
ented French choreographer Ro-
land Petit and includes his fam-
ous Diamond Cruncher and
Carmen ballets.
Actors Child
Gets Release
LOS ANGELES (UPI) The
daughter of German actress Ur-
sula Thiess and stepdaughter of
actor Robert Taylor' was released
Monday from General hospital af-
ter treatment for slashed wrists
and an overdose of barbiturates.
A hospital spokesman said Ma-
nuela Thiess 18 was in fair con-
dition and released in the custody
of her mother. She was admitted
Sunday.
The girl was arrested February
24 in Santa Monica for violation of
a municipal intoxication law when
she was found sitting in a parked
car with a Negro Robert Green
24. Green also was arrested.
The section under which Miss
Thiess was charged covered al-
cohol drugs and other substances
but an officer said she had no odor
of alcohol.
She was released to her mother
on $105 bail.
defense.
3. Asked Congress to lift the cur-
rent S6-million annual ceiling on ec-
onomic aid to the Ryukyus. The
new celling was not disclosed but
will run to an estimated $16 to $17
million this year and from theree to
four times the present level in suc-
ceeding years officials said.
4. Set up machinery for Japan
to share in long-range economic
development projects. Figures were
not given but it is understood Japan
will put up the equivalent of one
dollar for every $2 from the United
States on cooperative projects in
health education agriculture and
fisheries.
5. Eased travel restrictions by
permitting Ryukyuans to obtain
Japanese passports in Japan for
world travel after receiving an exit
permit from U.S. authorities on
Okinawa -
6. Lengthened the term of Ryu-
kyu legislators from two to three
years and provided for nomination
by the legislature of the chief ex-
ecutive of the government of the
Ryukyu islands who must be a
Ryukyuan.
Pets are living about five years
longer on the average than they
