Kansas City Flood (Continued from Page 1) there is some flooding in smaller communities. President Truman made an 800-mile aerial tour of the disaster area yesterday and pledged quick action. He called the flood "the worst thing I have ever seen." The Missouri river, which spread over thousands of acres in Missouri, was pouring a torrent of water into the Mississippi. The two great rivers join north of St. Louis. Much of the water was the runoff of Missouri and Kansas rivers that earlier had inundated an estimated 2,000,000 acres in the two states. St. Louis waterfront business houses had their employees sandbagging and moving merchandise to higher ground. North of St. Louis residents of the threatened areas of west Alton, Mo., and Kaskaskia island near Chester, Ill., had been warned to evacuate. The Mississippi already has caused an estimated $1,000,000 damage downstream from St. Louis at Cape Girardeau in southeast Missouri.

The prosecution claims McCracken used the car to carry Patty's body to the mountain grave. A yellow bedspread identified as having come from McCracken's motel cabin, was found buried near the child's grave. The yellow threads found in the car matched the bedspread, said McGaff, including some scorched strands of thread. The yellow bedspread had been scorched in several places, possibly in an effort to dry it before an open flame, according to the prosecution's theory. McGaff in addition testified that a blood-soaked towel was the threatened areas of west Alton, Mo., and Kaskaskia island near Chester, Ill., had been warned to evacuate. The Mississippi already has caused an estimated $1,000,000 damage downstream from St. Louis at Cape Girardeau in southeast Missouri. Mr. Truman's flight yesterday was over Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. In his party was Charles E. Wilson, defense mobilization chief. Wilson said key federal agencies would work swiftly to alleviate "the awful conditions the flood has caused." The President said on his return to Washington last night that he would sign an emergency bill providing funds for midwest flood relief as soon as it gets to him. Congress has voted a $25,000,-000 fund. Mr. Truman said this was only preliminary money to meet the immediate situation. During his aerial trip the President saw at least 1,000,000 acres that were inundated or had been under water. His plane flew over flooded industrial districts, wrecked bridges, smashed residential areas and ruined farms. Damage in Missouri and Kansas alone has been estimated in excess of $750,000,000—and receding waters are uncovering additional losses daily. The death toll is 23. DEFENDING CHAMP—Last phy.

One obvious specific object for such Kremlin tactics would be delay or discredit the signing a Japanese peace treaty which proposed by the U.S. for Francisco in early September. Treaty completion is one of the foundations of American policy building up defensive power in the western Pacific. Another objective would be try to weaken the anti-communist alliance in the European area. The Russians may hope to accomplish this by (1) exploiting differences in American and British Eastern policies and (2) minimizing fear of communist conquest in Europe and exploiting French distaste for German rearmament. The issuance of the new Russian magazine "News" is only one dent which diplomats here into account in estimating what the Russians are up to. Another that Russia took the lead in gesting Korean armistice negotiations. Actually the Russians have ways followed, since the end World War Two, parallel post and propaganda lines.

"Today's meeting moved rather ponderously, as had the previous meetings, due to language difficulties," the Army said. "Since three languages — Chinese, North Korean and English — are used in the conferences, it was necessary for each statement from either side to be translated two times. "Twice during today's talks, recesses were requested. The first, a two hour recess, was asked by the North Korean-Chinese delegation at 10:51 in order to study in detail a revised agenda which was presented by Admiral Joy at the conclusion of his opening statement of the morning." The communists later asked that the noon recess be extended. In the afternoon, the U.N. delegation asked for a 15 minute recess. "Shortly after reconvening" the Army statement continued, "the two delegations found an area of mutual agreement on phraseology of the second major point accepted during the day." The U.N. command ordered Allied newsmen to stay within one-half mile of the Kaesong conference hall, a reconverted former restaurant. No armed personnel is in this area. The Allied memorandum said the restriction was jointly agreed upon by U.N. and red liaison officers. It urged that correspondents "travel in groups by jeep rather than wandering by themselves" in this area. Correspondents first went to Kaesong Sunday, by joint agreement, on U.N. insistence.
