Bradley Says Chiang Army On Own Could Harass China WASHINGTON (AP)—Gen. Omar N. Bradley said today there is no military objection to "taking the wraps off" Chinese nationalist forces to harrass red China if American troops aren't involved. Bradley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, made this statement in response to questions from Senator George (D., Ga.), at Senate hearings on the dismissal of Gen. Douglas MacArthur as Far Eastern commander. He also told the Senators: 1. The United States would have to "strip" its military power elsewhere to carry out MacArthur's Korean war strategy. There are no differences between the deposed general and the administration over the necessity of keeping Formosa in friendly hands. Bradley opposed MacArthur's proposal for bombing Manchurian supply bases, although he said such action would be of military value if there was assurance—which he said couldn't be given—that Russia would not enter the fighting. George said he couldn't see why Chiang Kai-Shek couldn't be permitted to use his nationalist troops from Formosa to harrass China. "We'll," Bradley replied, "from the military point of view there is no objection, as I see it, to irish bases, and loosing Chiang's forces for operations against the Chinese communists. The nationalist Chinese are now 'neutralized' on Formosa. MacArthur, when testifying before the Senate inquiry into his dismissal, contended his program could be carried out without any great increase in military strength. Bradley disputed that. He said MacArthur's proposals would mean "spreading your effort a great deal more than it is spread at the present time." Touching on the global necessities of the present time, Bradley said it was important to build up security forces in Europe because Russia would be immensely strengthened if it took over Europe. He said the mere loss of U.S. Allies there would mean losing "some very important bases" for air strikes at Russia in event Moscow forces the world to war. Samuel Young Dohm Samuel Young Dohm, 85, a native of Erie, Mich., but a resident of California for 47 years and of Anaheim for 41 years, died Friday night at the Orange County General hospital after a prolonged illness. He was seriously stricken such action would be of military value if there was assurance—which he said couldn't be given—that Russia would not enter the fighting. George said he couldn't see why Chlang Käl-Shek couldn't be permitted to use his nationalist troops from Formosa to harrass China. "Well," Bradley replied, "from the military point of view there is no objection, as I see it, to removing any restrictions on his (Chiang's) doing these things, provided he doesn't get mixed up in such a way as to involve our own forces." He added, however, that if the nationalists took such losses both in men and equipment that they jeopardized the security of Formosa the military thinking might be different. MacArthur's proposed Korean strategy includes a naval blockade of red China, bombing of Manchu-based bases for air strikes at Russia in event Moscow forces the world to war. Samuel Young Dohm Samuel Young Dohm, 86, a native of Erie, Mich., but a resident of California for 47 years and of Anaheim for 41 years, died Friday night at the Orange County General hospital after a prolonged illness. He was seriously stricken last Sunday and was moved to the hospital. He is survived by his wife, Carrie E. Dohm, two sons, Calvin M. Dohm of Buena Park, Glen E. Dohm of Santa Ana; three daughters, Mrs. Clyde Lorens of Avenal; Mrs. Glenn Rogers of Exeter; Mrs. Gerald Norton of Anaheim; one brother, Spencer Dohm of Michigan and one sister, Mrs. Mina Schlotter of Anaheim, and six grandchildren. He was a member of the Wesley Methodist church. Gas, oil, tires and parking fees Kept me beaten to my knees.

Patricia's companion, Barbara Wingert, 10, Betsy Wingert, 9, and Irma Shaw, 10, said the man took a seat behind them and tried to engage them in conversation. Patricia Hull remained in the theater after the offer three girls had gone home. They said she was then with the man in the grey suit and had ice cream and pop corn.

Clarence Vetterll Will Stand Trial LOS ANGELES (P)—A journalism instructor accused in connection with a communist spy probe, tried today to plead guilty to one count of a federal indictment. But the judge refused the plea when Clarence H. Vetterll, 41, former Anaheim high school teacher, read into a record an elaborate explanation. Instead the teacher was ordered to stand trial. Vetterll, instructor at El Camino Junior college, Gardena, was accused in an indictment voted by a grand jury May 2 on two counts of perjury. One alleged that he lied before a grand jury in 1949 when he denied he had been told that Ignacy Samuel Witzczak was a communist agent. Witzczak was identified as a Soviet spy during the Canadian espionage trial of 1946. The other charges that he lied when he denied that he ever gave anyone money to go to Japan. The government alleges that in 1941 he gave such funds to a fellow student, Ichiro Ted Miwa, a Japanese-American. U. S. Atty. Ernest Tolin said Vetterll's testimony threw federal agents off the track in an investigation of international espionage. Says LA Atomic Toll Would be 180,000 People LOS ANGELES (P)—The city's chief civil defense deputy displayed figures today on the possible toll of an atom bomb burst 2000 feet over the civic center. The figures, from a study transmitted from the state office of civil defense, were: 34,000 resident dead in the area; 45,000 non-resident dead; 38,000 resident injured, and 63,000 non-resident injured. Total casualties, 180,000. Non-resident was defined to mean those who would be present in the course of business occupations or social visits. In the United States, eight video by someone else. However, Patricia Counley, 10, said that she saw Patricia Hull in 'the Hull yard, alone, at about 6 p.m. She did not notice whether the Hull youngster went into the house or somewhere else. Arrest of McCracken, who has a prior record of offenses against children, according to the sheriff's office followed a report from Lee Straley of Buena Park, that McCracken had borrowed his car at 8:45 p.m., Saturday, ostensibly to go and get the guitar amplifier so that he could play in a cafe. He promised to return the car in an hour. It was 2:30 a.m., Sunday before McCracken returned the car, Stradley said. Officers said that McCracken might have used the car to dispose of the girl's body after luring her from the theater. Deputy sheriff's Boyd Sturgis, Danny Rios and Jack McAlary, said they found a suitcase packed with clothing under McCracken's bed when they arrested him. No clothing was found in the clothes closet. McCracken's explanation of the packed suitcase was not satisfactory, officers said, and they declared that other points of his story regarding his movements late Saturday were contradictory. Two little Bueah Park girls, Panice Harris, 11, and Ruby Harris, 9, first identified a photograph of McCracken as the man who molested them a week ago, and then last night picked him out of a lineup at the sheriff's office. Patrica Hull is described as four feet tall, 76 pounds and having blonde hair and green eyes. Korean War (Continued from Page 1) us in even greater numbers we can handle them again."

The only persons hurt were several prisoners beaten up by their fellows. None of the prisoners escaped, but two of the guards held as hostages succeeded during the height of the excitement in breaking out through barred windows in the maximum security section. They shinned down the second story on makeshift ropes made of torn sheets. The other six hostages were released after a delegation of inmates met with wardchief Alvin O. Severson, and members of the Board of Corrections. The officials promised to consider the prisoners' complaints if the prisoners would release their hostages, return to their cells and clean up the mess they had made. The mess included a broken safe which had contained narcotics. Prisoners told officials the riot developed spontaneously when word spread that several were disciplined Sunday for a lesser disturbance which occurred Friday. But Warden Severson said this disciplining was for a disturbance at church a few hours earlier. The riot started with seizure of the unarmed guards at 4:10 p.m. (MST). The prisoners released six men in death row and others. They later agreed to the terms and the hostages were released at 8:35 p.m. More than 200 of the 532 inmates of the prison took part.
