Keith (Sam Spade) Murdoch Probes CAD Supply Caper City Administrator Keith Murdoch has currently added gum-shoeing to his several other accomplishments. He hasn't solved the "whodunit" that's bothering him yet, so it's hard to predict how he will do as an Anaheim version of Sam Shovel. Here's the caper: Murdoch got wind of a rumor that the Civil Defense committee here during the last war stashed away an estimated several grand worth of medical supplies and equipment after dissolving as a working organization. "It's only a will-o'-the-wisp, but I'm figuring the current CD effort could use them if they're still around." Gumshoe Murdoch explained. "So far, the only lead I've had was when a Santa Ana defense official put the finger on ex-Mayor Charlie Mann as the man who might be able to give me the right word." Mann was head of the World War II defense committee. Murdoch had been unable to make contact with him before press time. The suicide rate in Denmark is far higher than in Holland, or in Finland.

They put it, as the red Koreans' Pyongyang radio did yesterday: "American peace over fires are an indication that the country has lost the war in Korea." Communist propaganda took the news that it was a red show. A Hong Kong communist newspaper said: "We named the place, made all the necessary preparations" and directed and guided the U.N. delegation when it reached Kaeong. Maybe so, but the reds are not going to say who is to be on the U.N. delegation, nor what that delegation's task shall be. That is the point at issue. Ridgway said the presence of professional newsmen "at a conference of such major importance to the entire world is considered an inherent right by members of the United Nations." And, unable to get the reds to agree voluntarily to the presence of correspondents, Ridgway announced he was going to exercise that right. He made the newsmen "an internal part of the United Nations command delegation." The communists knew that when they halted the press truck today. They were, in effect, trying to say who could be in the U.N. delegation. Well, they can't. Joy underscored that when he told the chief red delegate, Gen.

Here is a group of strong, healthy young American soldiers enjoying an after-chow gab session while they polish up for tomorrow's inspection. They are a part of the best-fed, best-equipped, best-cared-for Army in the world—the United States Army. And they are just like the boys from your home town, from your own block, who are training now to do a job of defending your country—and you. Defense is your job, too. And one of the best ways for you to do that job is to buy U.S. Defense Bonds. For your Defense Bonds help maintain America's economic strength just as these boys help maintain her military strength. Go to the Pay Office where you work and sign up for the Payroll Savings Plan, or join the Bond-A-Month Plan where you bank. Do it now! The U.S. Defense Bonds you buy give you personal financial independence Remember that when you're buying Defense Bonds you're building a personal reserve of cash savings. Money that will some day buy you a house or educate your children, or support you when you retire. Remember, too, that if you don't save regularly, you generally don't save at all. So go to your company's pay office—now—and sign up to buy Defense Bonds through the Payroll Savings Plan. Don't forget that bonds are now a better buy than ever. Because now every Series E Bond you own automatically goes on earning interest every year for 20 years from date of purchase instead of 10 as before! This means that the bond you bought for $18.75 can return you not $25—but as much as $33.33—if you just hold it the extra ten years! A $37.50 bond pays $66.66. And so on. For your security, and your country's, too, buy U.S. Defense Bonds now! *U.S. Savings Bonds are Defense Bonds Buy them regularly! The U.S. Government does not pay for this advertising.
