VOLUME LXXXI Anaheim's FIRST Newspaper ANAHHE County Clerk Issues Voting Instructions Write-in votes for presidential candidates or their delegates on the primary election ballot June 3 are not permitted under the laws of California, and such votes would not be counted. County Clerk B. J. Smith announced today, quoting a ruling by Attorney General Edmund Brown. Thus the only ballots that will be counted are those for the delegates of Governor Earl Warren and the opposing slate of Thomas Werdel. No Taft, Eisenhower or Stassen votes will be tabulated, if they should be written in on the ballot. That restriction, however, does not apply to any other offices on the ballot, the attorney general ruled. Write-in votes will be counted for other offices, and the fact that presidential candidates may be written in will not invalidate only that portion of the ballot.

WASHINGTON (UP)—Vice President Barkley announced today that he is willing to be the Democratic candidate for president. Slinging to Mar Senate Campaign Expressing a wish to pass on to his children and grandchildren the American heritage which, he said, has stood him in such good stead, John A. Murdy, candidate for the California State Senate, today said he has entered the race because he feels it is time for each individual to make government his business. A sincere, forthright speaker, Murdy, rancher, businessman and chairman of the board of Hoag Memorial hospital, said the campaign so far has been a clean one, but expressed fear that mud-slinging would mar the last days of it. The candidate, speaking at a luncheon in his honor at Anaheim Elks' club, called for a reappraisal of the spiritual values that have made America great and for a thorough-going purge of the influences that have destroyed confidence in the government.

Us and Bayonets Break Up or rising--Red Shot Accidently KOJE ISLAND, Korea, UP — Allied troops with bayonets and tear gas today squelched a red prisoner uprising without blood-shed, but a prisoner later was killed by the accidental discharge of a guard's rifle. Steel-helmeted U.S. infantrymen with bayonets barged into a compound and dispersed red prisoners who were trying to cut a new gate in an inner barbed wire fence. Behind this flying wedge of about 50 soldiers, more than 50 British troops moved in and demolished a red command post and a dispensary. Prisoners jeered the British at their task but did not attack. Two hours later, during a change of guards in a tower, an American guard accidentally discharged his automatic rifle into the same jammed compound, killing one prisoner and wounding another slightly.

The CGT executive board called for a strike "in defense of peace, bread and liberty" as the public prosecutor ordered an immediate inquiry into the affairs of Duclos to see whether he should be prosecuted for plotting against the national security. Duclos was arrested last night after bloody communist riots against Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway resulted in the killing of a worker, the serious injury of 17 others and injuries to 200 police. He was charged with carrying a gun and ordered to jail to await trial. The prosecutor's order also named Andre Still, editor of the communist newspaper IHumanite, one of the red newspapers seized by the government for inciting rioting. Shortly after the prosecutor issued his order an examining magistrate formally charged Duclos with plotting against the internal security of France — a charge which could be punishable by exile. Duclos was moved to Fresnes prison on the southern outskirts of Paris immediately after the charge was read to him. The CGT call for a strike did not set a time, but it was appar- WASHINGTON (UP) — President Truman today vetoed legislation to give the states title to oil-rich lands beyond their coasts. The president, in a message to the Senate, said the bill would turn over to certain states as a free gift "very valuable lands and mineral resources of the United States as a whole—that is, of all the people of the country." His action dumps the long-lasting states-versus-federal government issue back into the hands of Congress, where a two-thirds majority vote in both Houses would be required to make the legislation law over the veto. The House is expected to override the veto, but a close contest is forecast in the Senate. Sen. O'Mahoney (D-Wyo) predicted that the Senate would uphold the veto. WASHINGTON (UP) — The Senate today rejected a proposal to end wage-price controls June 30. The proposal was offered by Rep. Dirksen (R-III) as an amendment to a bill to continue the controls until March 1. The Senate opened debate on the bill today. If nothing is done before June 30, wage and price controls will die automatically at that time. President Truman had asked an extension until June 30, 1954. In arguing for the amendment, Dirksen said price controls have produced a flourishing black market in potatoes. But Sen. Maybank (D-S.C.) said it would be a tragedy to terminate the controls program at that time. He urged the Senate to approve the bill to continue the curbs until March 1. BERLIN (UP) — Ten to 15 thousand young communists surged into West Berlin late today and at least 1000 of them clashed with club-swinging West Berlin police. The communists barged into the western sectors in an obvious rabble-rousing effort to exert pressure because of West Germany's signing of the European ling one prisoner and wounding another slightly. THE U.S. AND British infantrymen entered the enclosure on orders of Col. Henry Taylor, Washington, D.C., deputy commander of the United Nations Koje Island prison camp. They broke up the demonstration with tear gas bombs and drove the reds into the center of the compound. Then they systematically ripped apart the two POWs command post and贮pensary. The reds apparently staged the disturbance in an attempt to force Brig. Gen. Haydon L. Boatner, camp commander, to visit the compound and confer with them, a camp spokesman said. The spokesman added that Boatner received "a long abusive, insulting, demanding letter" from the compound leader two days ago. The general never answered it because the letter violated Boatner's rules that messages to him from POWs must be "bright, courteous and to the point." Boatner also refused to go to the compound gate during the disturbance. But, from a distance, he watched his U.N. soldiers break it up. After a short period of watching he returned to his quarters to interview officers and to prepare a statement on the incident. Check-Passer Busy In Santa Ana Santa Ana police today notified other police departments that a check-passer identified as Dorothy Carr, 21 to 22 years, 5'4" tall, 110 pounds, and with light brown hair, has been working in Santa Ana. A womens' clothing store was victimized there yesterday. The Carr woman is said to carry checks made out to her from William Roy Carr and uses a birth certificate as identification. She was accompanied by a 5 or 6 year old girl. "TALENT TIME" TO sued his order an examining magistrate formally charged Duclos with plotting against the internal security of France — a charge which could be punishable by exile. Duclos was moved to Fresnes prison on the southern outskirts of Paris immediately after the charge was read to him. The CGT call for a strike did not set a time, but it was apparent from the text of the appeal that immediate action was demanded. IN THE NATIONAL assembly communist deputies demanded the immediate liberation of Duelos. Interior Minister Charles Brune has declared the government has proof of "an organized and permanent conspiracy by the communist troops" against the French state during the street fighting. One communist was killed and 17 badly hurt and 200 police injured in Paris. At Nice, another 25 persons were hurt. The inquiry will be made under articles of the French penal code which provides for deportation for anyone plotting to destroy or change the government by inciting citizens to arm themselves against authority. Nine hundred or more communists were arrested here and in Marseilles, Bordeaux and other French cities during demonstrations against the new NATO general. Police began a broadening crackdown on the communists today and seized many editions of BERLIN (P)—Ten to 15 thousand young communists surged into West Berlin late today and at least 1000 of them clashed with club-swinging West Berlin police. The communists barged into the western sectors in an obvious rabble-rousing effort to exert pressure because of West Germany's signing of the European army pact and a peace contract with the Western Powers. The propaganda assault broke out in the boroughs of Kreuzberg and Neukoelin in the American sector. The downtown business area suddenly filled with thousands of teenagers from the adjacent Soviet sector just as the day's shopping was ending. They streamed in from five avenues as the streets were black with workers going home. The youths behaved well enough, but about 1000 older and brawnier communist laborers suddenly touched off trouble by spreading leaflets at Kottbusser Tor (Gate to Kottbuss).
