Hew Vandenberg said today the United States is operating with a "sat string" Air Force and can afford now to adopt Gen. Douglas MacArthur's proposed strategy to bombing red bases in Manchuria. Testifying at the Senate inquiry into MacArthur's dismissal, Vandenberg also said he believed there are "reasonable chances" getting a negotiated peace in Korea without such bombing. Vandenberg, the Air Force chief of staff, said he believes if full power of the U.S. Air Force were thrown into the balance Korea "there would be a good chance of forcing them (Chinese reeds) to negotiate." But he contended it would take the full weight of the Air Force to accomplish this, and the Air Force can not afford to do it less it be called upon to meet a Russian attack elsewhere. MacArthur had contended no material increase in air strength already assigned to the Far East would be needed to carry out his plan of bombing Manchuria. Asserting that the U.S. Air Force remains the single largest deterrent to any Russian attack that might start World War III Vandenberg said he thinks th RED CROSS COURSE FOR LOCAL HOUSEWIVES Housewives who have been wanting to join the Civil Defense program will be interested in the Red Cross training course starting Friday June 1.

Spain of Birmingham, Ala., has been elected president of Rotary International for 1951-52 at the 42nd annual convention of the world-wide service club organization held in Atlantic City, N.J., according to Claude Russell, president of the Anaheim Rotary club. The convention registration of more than 12,000 represented 7300 Rotary clubs with a membership of 347,000 business and professional executives in 83 different countries.

Force can not afford to do it less it be called upon to meet a Russian attack elsewhere. MacArthur had contended no material increase in air strength already assigned to the Far East would be needed to carry out his plan of bombing Manchuria. Asserting that the U.S. Air Force remains the single largest deterrent to any Russian attack that might start World War III, Vandenberg said he thinks the fighting in Korea can be halted without all-out use of air there. He added: "I believe that there are reasonable chances of success in achieving a negotiated peace without endangering that one potential that we have, which has kept the peace so far, which is the United States Air Force." Vandenberg said he concurred in the orders to MacArthur not to bomb north of the Yalu river boundary between Korea and Manchuria. He said he concurred, too, in the decision that MacArthur should be removed from his command.

Funeral Today For Patty Hull At Buena Park Funeral rites for pigtailed Patty Jean Hull were held today in the tiny white-spired First Baptist church where she attended Sunday school. The church is only a block away from the modest home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Dale Hull. It also is only a block from the movie house where she saw a cops and robbers matinee last Saturday. The 10-year-old fourth grader never made the short walk home from the theater. Instead, her boaten body was found in a shallow woodland grave after a six day search by thousands of townspeople, deputies, firemen, and U. S. Marines. Mrs. Terry Hull, heartbroken mother of the slain child chose a blue organdy dress for Patty's funeral garb. It was her favorite — the same one she wore to church last Easter Sunday. Meanwhile, in the Orange county jail at Santa Ana, hulking Henry Ford McCracken listened to hymns sung outside his cell yesterday by a visiting choir. The cowboy guitarist and convicted sex degenerate is accused of luring Patty from the theater and murdering her. Jailers reported he slept and ate well and showed no emotion. He was indicted Friday by a grand jury on charges of murder, kidnaping and child-stroking.

Collosal Crime Wave Hits Kids (TV, That is) LOS ANGELES (P) — One hundred and twenty-seven murders, 101 "justifiable killings," 357 attempted murders, 93 kidnapings, 11 jail breaks, three brandings of men with red hot irons ... These figures says TV magazine, video trade publication, represent crimes committed in one week on television programs broadcast by the seven Los Angeles stations. The magazine, which made a survey of telecasts during the week beginning May 1, reports: Eighty-two per cent of the crimes occurred on programs designed especially for children. Seventy per cent of all childrens' programs depend upon crime and violence for their appeal. Only 5.5 per cent of all crime programs are broadcast after 9 p.m. when children presumably are in bed. Assaults, batteries, cases of dishonest gambling and lesser crimes were too numerous to tabulate, the magazine says. It is turning over a 176-page report on the survey to Mayor Fletcher Bowron for study. Temperatures Temperature reading in downtown Anaheim at 2 p.m. today was 81. Low was 59 at 6 a.m. today.
