Escaped Polish Delegate Says Russ Aim for World Conquest by 1970-80 ESCARY RESCUE—Fire Marshal James Hughes, held by unseen ropes, reaches out in attempt to bring Millicent Armin, 36, back from ledge on the 20th floor of the Tribune Tower in Chicago. After more than an hour the woman was pulled to safety. More than 1000 spectators watched the tense drama from the street below. Escaped Polish Delegate Says Russ Aim for World Conquest by 1970-80 WASHINGTON ©—Dr. Marek S. Korowicz, who escaped from the Communist Polish delegation to the United Nations last week, said today the Russians aim for world conquest by 1970 or 1980. Korowicz told an extraordinary session of the House Un-American Activities committee that everything that goal but "they know in Moscow that under present circumstances war is not the best and safest way to achieve their aims." In the immediate future, he said, the Russians plan a "peace offensive" in the United Nations. Without giving further details, he said the Polish delegation would have a "substantial" part in the "peace offensive." On Russian Orders Every action taken by the Polish U.N. delegates and those from the Soviet satellite members of the world organization, Korowicz testified, is on direct orders from their Russian overlords. He asked anyhum in the United States after a dramatic walkout from the Polish U.N. delegation at New York a week ago. As he testified today, he was under guard against possible assassination. The committee explained he was guarded for fear that Communist agents might seek reprisal against him for his flight to freedom. No Revolt in Poland Korowicz completed his testimony in two hours and the committee thanked him warmly for his report. Among other things, he said: 1. The greatest defeat the Soviets could suffer, short of war, would be loss of diplomatic relations with the West. 2. Oppressed Polish workers will not rise up in revolt, as did Soviet Zone Germans last summer, because any such "would be drowned in the blood of Polish patriots." 3. "It is generally believed" in Poland that Lavrentia Beria, the deposed No. 2 Russian, already had been executed before the Kremlin announced his fall from power in July. 4. If free elections were held in Poland, which "Soviet gauleiters have turned into one immense totalitarian prison camp," Communist party would receive no more than 2 per cent of the total vote. County Opens Suit In Water Dispute SANTA ANA - The city of Corona and the water companies which supply the city with water, today are the targets of legal action by the Orange County Water District in a suit to prevent increased pumping of water in the Santa Ana river basin. The district took similar action against San Bernardino, Riverside, Redlands, and Colton in 1951, in order to influence those cities to take steps towards ammunition to the Metropolitan Water District in order to import Colorado River water. When the city of Riverside, then drilled eight more wells in the basin, the suit was pressed and the issue is to be heard in court early next month. Both San Bernardino and Riverside now have begun preparations for annexation to MWD but Corona has persistently opposed such action, this prompting the latest injunction filing. According to water district attorneys, the filing dates of the injunctions may become the basis for limitation of pumping rights should the suits be successful, thus, those cities may be restricted to the average pumping rights of a 5-year period immediately preceding the filing of the injunctions.

Gorman told the National AFL Convention his union was making plans for a joint strike with the CIO Packinghouse Workers against the big four meat companies, Swift, Armour, Cudahy and Wilson. Gorman said the walkout first hit Swift but would "undoubtedly spread quickly" throughout the other companies. He said the full strike would affect some 150,000 workers. Gorman told the convention his union had "negotiated patiently" and until now had "resisted the will of the membership to declare a strike." He said the companies offered "a proposition that no decent trade unionist could accept." It was reported that the unions were seeking a 12-1-2 cent an hour wage increase and five cents in fringe benefits. The companies were said to have countered with a five cents wage offer and 2.2 cents in fringes.

As the first pilot to deliver the Russian-made warcraft to the Allies he will receive $100,000, but the offer of $50,000 for subsequent deliveries was withdrawn. Will Study Craft Although Clark said the United States will offer to return the MIG to its rightful owner, the United States first will have ample opportunity to study it.

"Ultimate in Peril" "The forces of destruction, largely in terms of atom and hydrogen bombs, are being developed on a scale which threatens the survival of civilization as we know it." Dulles said gravelly. "Furthermore, the possibility of setting these destruction forces into motion may be possessed by Communist rulers who openly repudiate the restraints of moral law. "That is an ultimate in peril which mankind has never had to face before." The AFL called a brief respite in its quarrel with the Eisenhower administration over the Taft-Hartley act to hear Dulles on foreign policy. Allies Are United Dulles said the free world must not "cringe or become panicky" in the face of the atomic peril. Dulles pointed out that at the U.N. General Assembly he had appealed to the Soviet government to meet the United States in an effort to control arms and to reduce tension. Dulles recalled that four days later Soviet Delegate Andrei Vishinsky gave a reply consisting "merely of a repetition of their old refrains." But Dulles said this government would not grow weary or discouraged in its quest for peace. Dulles said the United States and its Korean War Allies are "now united" in their determination to overcome Chinese Red delaying tactics and to bring about the proposed Korean Peace Conference.
