Korean War

against red tanks and lugged ammunition for back privates.
By nightfall the Korean reds were everywhere. Dean gathered a small group in jeeps and trucks and they roared through the burning city.
But they made a wrong turn and ran into a communist road block. Machinegun fire sprayed the convoy. The convoy doubled back, ran into other North Koreans.
The party abandoned their vehicles and scurried across rice paddies toward the hills. They eluded the reds and paused on a mountainside to rest.
Nation at Glance
Diplomacy in War Depends On Battle Gains
WASHINGTON — Prospects for some new diplomatic negotiation to end the Korean war appear now to hinge on the détente of the American Army effort to stabilize the rift.
The critical point at which Russia's real intentions toward the Korean fighting will be disclosed, American officials believe, will come when and if the red advance is brought to a standstill.
Russia must then realize, they say, that without powerful outside assistance the Korean communists will be unable to hold their gains and will be confronted with the threat of ultimate defeat.
At that time, according to this line of reasoning, the world will probably find out quickly whether there is to be an end to aggression and a return of peace in Korea or whether the danger of a great war will increase.
Top officials here believe the major decisions on Russia's course have been under study in the Kremlin since the middle of last week.
Two things happened at that time. One was President Truman's message to Congress, calling for a $10,000,000,000 down payment on an expanded military program and warning Russia that a series of limited aggressions of the Korea type might well bring on World War III.
The other devolvement was the failure of Indian Prime Minister Nehru's effort to create conditions for a negotiated settlement. The United States rejected Nehru's broad rise. Too many issues sold at lower prices, however, to indicate a clear-cut upward trend.
Lower most of the time were motor, radio-television, copper, oil and building material shares. Losses were limited mostly to $1 a share or less.
Trading hit a good clip with turnover at a rate of about 2,300,-000 shares for the full session.
Commie Junks Head Toward Formosa Base
TAIPEI, Formosa (P)—A defense ministry spokesman said today a number of junks were approaching Quemoy Island under cover of a Chinese communist artillery barrage.
It may be the long expected invasion attempt against the Nationalist held island used as a blockade base against the reds.
The spokesman said Nationalist forces on Quemoy, just off the mainland port of Amoy, were adequate to meet the expected ret attack. He said they would be supported by locally assigned Nationalist air and naval units.
The Spokesman said Presiden Truman's July 27 request to halve air and sea operations against the red mainland did not preclude the defense of Nationalist positions.
Ashed whether there was effective cooperation between Nationalists and the United States Seventh Fleet, assigned to safeguard Formosa from red invasion, the spokesman replied: "That's a military secret."
He hinted Nationalist air and naval support would not be given Quemoy if invasion develops without Washington's approval.
The spokesman expressed doubt that a reported large concentration of communist craft in the vicinity of Quemoy would pass the island for a direct attack on Formosa.
GENERAL DEAN
Dean said, "you can wait for me," and trudged down the mountainside toward a river, apparently to round up other stragglers.
Earlier Dean had expressed his concern in Taejon. "I want all of you boys to get out," he told Pvt. Alfred Vessels of Stanton, Tex.
The party waited two hours, then left.
Clarke led the group into a village outside the new American lines. Just then American artillery started shelling it. They left but ran into American rifle fire.
"We hit the ditches," Clarke said. "I got up, put my hands behind my head and yelled:
"We are Americans. Don't shoot."
"They didn't shoot any more. Pretty soon we started passing American soldiers on the road and they sent a truck to bring us here."
As for Dean, associates earlier had expressed their confidence in his resourcefulness:
"The general can take care of himself."

WASHINGTON — Congressional sources said today an immediate 60 per cent increase is planned in the fighting strength of the Marine Corps.
They also said the Navy is readying an additional two—and possibly three — aircraft carriers for duty as quickly as possible.
House members, whose names cannot be used, told of these Navy mobilization plans after a closed-door session of the House Armed Services committee with Admiral Forrest R. Sherman, Chief of Naval Operations.
Sherman was reported to have told the committee that an increase of about 57,000 men would be made in the fighting strength of the Marines.
As of June 30, the Marines were reported to have approximately 75,000 men.
Part of the Marines added strength would be in its aviation squadrons, which would be increased from the present 12 to 18 squadrons.
MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. — An Air Force transport hurled into swampland near here yesterday and exploded into a blazing nuclear pyre for 34 servicemen.
The dead included 30 members of the Tennessee Air National Guard, en route to Nashville from war games in this area. Four air reserve crewmen were on the plane.
Minutes after the C-46 climbed from the municipal airport here it plunged into the pine-spotted muckland. The servicemen were still within sight of the airport until just before the ship crashed.
Towering gasoline-fed flames pushed would-be rescuers back.
NEW YORK — Rail stocks easily outdistanced the rest of the Market today.

The spokesman expressed doubt that a reported large concentration of communist craft in the vicinity of Quemoy would pass the island for a direct attack on Formosa.
"It looks as if Quemoy is going to be their target," he said.
Covina D & A Plant Bought By Exchange
Purchase of the complete facilities of the Damerel-Allison Company in Covina by the Exchange Lemon Products Company was announced yesterday by Howard Hall, general manager.
Acquisition of the excellent citrus processing plant of the Damerel-Allison Company will enable us to expand immediately our production capacity for the manufacture of juice products." Hall stated. "We will have a combined capacity of 600 tons of lemons daily in the main Plant at Corona and the plant at Covina."
The Exchange Lemon Products company plans to take over complete operation of the Damerel-Allison plant as soon as escrow is completed. Purchase price was announced at slightly more than a million dollars.
"We feel that the acquisition of this going facility is highly desirable and will allow us to swing into increased production," said Hall.
The Damerel-A plant has a daily capacity or 200 tons of lemons. Thus the combined juice capacity of the two plants will be 600 tons of lemons daily or about 1100 cars of lemons monthly.
The Covina plant will be used principally for the manufacture of frozen lemonade concentrate or Minute Maid and Snow Crop and the production of fresh orange juice will be continued.

Truman Asks Ten Billion
WASHINGTON (D)—President Truman today asked Congress $10,486,976,000 in new mil- appropriations.
In a letter to Congress leaders, the president also ad- $20,000,000 for Selective Secu- and $10,000,000 for his own e-gency fund.
His letter to House Speaker Rayburn (D-Tex) said the appropriations are for a two-purpose:
"First, to meet the imme- situation in Korea, and second provide for an early, but order buildup of our military force; a state of readiness designed deter further acts of aggression.
The estimates call for a t increase in the strength of Armed Forces of about 600,000 close to 50 per cent above pre-stength.

Anaheim Industrialists Answer Call to Cut Down Sewage Flow
With relief for the county's pressing sewer problem still in the offing, Anaheim industrialists are bending to the requests of sanitation officials to cut down on the amount of waste dumped into the jammed sewer mains.
Las month George Holyoke, assistant city engineer and Nelson Launer, general manager of the joint outfall sewer system, made the rounds of local industrialists whose plants contribute to the sewage load and lodged a plea for inquiry into the means and methods of cutting down the discharge of sewage material into the lines.
A Gazette survey of the situation, completed today, indicates that the industrialists are quick to get behind the problem.
The solutions vary with the individual manufacturer. Some have gone to the extent of introducing new equipment to cut down the amount of sewage dumped into the mains.
One such is Kwikset. Ready for operation at the Santa Ana street lock firm is a new $6000 water cooler, designed to fit water for reuse in cooling diecasting machines. Up till now water used for cooling the machines has been run directly into the sewer main. The new installation makes it possible to take the heated water from the machines, cool it to the proper temperature, and send it through the circuit again. Kwikset president Adolf Schoepe estimates the device will cut down sewage discharge some 50 per cent.
Finishing touches on another circulation system to permit use and reuse of water are in process at Winckler and Smith Citrus Products Company, 408 S. Atchison. Here again, the plan calls for cooling and reuse of water which formerly went into the sewer main. Chemist Frank Gilbert calculated that the plant's sewage discharge would be halved by the cooling innovation.
Other local manufacturers and processors, already rigged for minimum sewage discharge, find minor repairs to existing equipment the only answer to the pleas for sewage conservation. Typical is the Bridgeford meat packing company, North Patt st. Stating that a meat packing concern requires a lot of water to effect compliance with rigid government sanitary requirements Plant Manager Glenn Donovan said that the results in a bare minimum of sewage waste. The water circulation system at the chemical plant is now operating near full capacity, Lynn added.
All of the manufacturing firms contacted expressed hearty support of the proposed Magnolia Trunk installation. In some quarters anxiety was indicated over the time elapsed between the decision to launch the project and the actual commencement of work, still in the offing. Eying the influx of population and trade into this area, producers who cite dependence on sewage facilities for present and proposed production voiced the desire to "see construction get underway with all possible speed."
Girl Describes Elderly Assailant
Reported advances toward a nine year old girl yesterday had the Anaheim Police on the look-out for a possible child molester.
The girl told police that the man made his advances in a local theater, twisted her arm, and when she got free, followed her to her home.
She described her assailant as being elderly, with "glassy-looking eyes." He was dressed in klaki trousers and a brown shirt.

Typical is the Bridgeford meat packing company, North Patt st. Stating that a meat packing concern requires a lot of water to effect compliance with rigid government sanitary requirements Plant Manager Glenn Donovan said that the only possible conservation comes from replacement of a few leaking valves. Getting by with less sewage run-off, he said, would mean curtailting production.
Still other manufacturers indicate present facilities already provide for a bare minimum of sewage discharge. "We are already cooperating to the fullest extent possible," said R. A. Herman, manager of the Anaheim Citrus Products Company, 421 Commercial st. Herman went on to point out that even prior to the conservation call, the company was operating with a minimum of sewage disposal.
At Mutual Citrus Products Company, 424 S. Atchison, the story was similar. Facilities already in operation provide for maximum use of cooling towers which permit reuse of water which otherwise would be poured into the sewer lines. Here, as with other citrus processors, a certain amount of waste organic material is inevitable.

SPOT CHECK SHOWS SLOT MACHINES HAVE VANISHED IN STATE
SAN FRANCISCO (UP)—Twenty-one counties have been checked for slot machine law violations, and all are "clean," says George W. Griffin, chief special agent for the attorney general.
"They just don't have the slot machines up," he said today. "They are either hidden or moved out of the state."
He told reporters the counties checked included the San Francisco Bay area, the Los Angeles area, and the mother lode counties, including the Lake Tahoe resort districts. Some spot checks were made elsewhere.
On July 15 the law became effective making simple possession of a slot machine a misdemeanor.
