Sen. Bridges (R-NH) told the Senate yesterday the apology—if made—was "a shocking thing." And Sen. Knowland (R-Calif), who brought the matter to the Senate's attention by reading a London news report about it, demanded that a full text of Acheson's remarks be made available to Congress. Knowland said if Britain wants a bigger voice in the conduct of the Korean war, he would have no objection provided the British assumed a larger share of the burden. The London account said Acheson reportedly made the apology to about 200 members representing both Houses of Parliament during a 20-minute meeting yesterday. Acheson was reported to have told them American officials had intended to notify the British defense minister, Field Marshal Lord Alexander, and Selwayn Lloyd, British minister of state for foreign affairs, who arrived in Washington last Saturday. But, he is reported to have explained, due to a mixup over whether a state or defense department official was to make the notification neither was informed.

Meeting was closed with Social Security $5 Boost Nears Final Approval WASHINGTON. (UP) — A bill giving at least $5 a month more to all persons receiving social security benefits appeared near final passage today. Senate approval last night sent it to a Senate-House conference for adjusting differences between the two houses' bills. This is expected to be completed before congress recesses or adjourns next week. The Senate added 240 million dollars to the annual cost of the bill by voting to raise payments to the states for aiding the needy aged, the blind and the disabled. An amendment offered by majority leader McFarland (D-Ariz.), would raise these individual payments $5 a month. In addition payments for dependent children would go up $3 a month. The House bill applied only to the insurance part of social security, financed by payroll deductions and employer contributions. It would increase payments to an estimated 4½ million persons by an average of $6 a month. Wennerberg told his audience of more than 50 chamber members, Optimists and city recreation department honorees that a constant struggle is under way between forces leading youngsters into antisocial activities and the teachers, ministers, group leaders, and recreational personnel attempting to lead youth into democratic lives typified by fair play, cooperation and team work. He complimented extensively Anaheim's recreational program and pointed out Anaheim has three essentials of good community life, good schools, good churches and youth organizations, and good family homes. Don Derrr, director of city recreation activities, also reported on the city program of recreation, pointing out that since 1949 the city has doubled the number of youths participating in city supervised recreation. John Ganahl, chairman of recreation for the chamber, served as master of ceremonies. Mutinies Flare Up Again in Kentucky EDDYVILLE, Ky.

(P)—This is Mrs. Kit Monteverde's story: She was driving along yesterday, with son Kent, 4, and daughter Nona Lee, seven months, in the seat beside her. Pancho, the family dog, was in the back. She stopped for a small hitchhiker, carrying a fat pillowcase. A few minutes later Pancho howled. Mrs. Monteverde looked in the rear view mirror. What she saw brought a scream and a screeching of brakes. The back seat was full of snakes. "That dumb dog of yours," growled her half-pint passenger. "He's let out my snakes." While Mrs. Monteverde and the children waited apprehensively outside, the youngster gathered up seven snakes and stuffed them back into the pillowcase." "I was gonna train them," he grumbled, as Mrs. Monteverde left him to the mercies of some other motorist. "Now that dumb dog has ruined their temperament."

It differs greatly from the Senate's bill, which would keep price and wage controls—as well as rent controls—in existence. Allied Airmen Smash Two More Yalu Targets SEOUL (AP) — Allied fighter bombers heaped new destruction on communist hydro-electric plants in North Korea last night. Targets included two big generting stations which previously had been spared. U.N. infantrymen drove two Chinese battalions off two hills on the western front Thursday, at times using bayonets and flame throwers to rout the reds from their bunkers. A Fifth Air Force spokesman called the 150-plane raid on the communists' North Korean power network a mopping up operation, but the number of planes involved and damage reported by returning pilots were impressive. Two power plants at Changjin (Chosin) were hit for the first time. Other Air Force and Marine fighter bombers dumped bombs and rockets on a third Changjin generating station and one at Fusen which already had been smashed in raids Monday and Tuesday. The planes struck just at sun-down. Pilots said a switchyard was destroyed and the power house damaged at Changjin plant number one. The power house and switchyard were damaged and destroyed outside. Harrison said North Gen. Nam II, head of munist truce team, had difficulty controlling himself walkout. A U.N. spokesman voice "was approaching scream."

A dozen witnesses at the inquest testified Vargas ran in of the car after it began downhill. Allied planes have not returned to the giant Suiho plant on the Yalu river—the world's fourth largest—since Monday. This plant supplied power for red war industries in both North Korea and Manchuria.

First reports said several persons have been injured in the new outbreak, which came hardly 12 hours after 300 prisoners ended a day-long rebellion. British Labor Party Attacks Yalu Bombings LONDON. (AP)—The Labor party moved today to force a House of Commons showdown on the failure of the United States to notify Britain in advance of the Yalu river power plant bombings in North Korea. The party filed a formal motion, for debate next Tuesday, demanding that the Conservative government make "improved arrangements" for prior consultations on such matters in the future. The resolution also "regrets" the failure of the government to obtain such consultation prior to the Yalu river strikes. The text of the resolution: "While appreciating that the government and armed forces of the U.S.A. have borne the major share of the burden of resisting armed aggression in Korea, (the House of Commons) regrets the failure of the government to secure effective consultation on the timing of certain air operations; and considers that improved arrangements should now be made to enable such consultations to take place between the governments principally concerned on issues of United Nations policy in the Far East."

Wilson Negotiators Stage Third Walkout MUNSAN, KOREA. (P) — Allied truce negotiators today walked out on the protesting Communists for the third time in a month. Maj. Gen. William K. Harrison, Jr., declared a three-day recess and marched out of the armistice tent at Panmunjom while an angry Communist delegation loudly demanded another meeting tomorrow. Harrison said North Korean Gen. Nam Il, head of the Communist truce team, had "great difficulty controlling himself" at the walkout. A U.N. spokesman said Nam's voice "was approaching a strident scream." Harrison once got to the tent play when Nam called "Please come back. We have something to say." The U.S. general said he resumed his seat and consented reluctantly "Well, once more." But Nam merely repeated his demand for a session tomorrow. As soon as Nam's statement was translated, Harrison and the four other Allied negotiators marched out of the tent. "I got the impression that some North Koreans were laughing at Nam," Harrison told newsmen. The Allies have declared three-day recesses on two previous occasions when there appeared to be no hope of breaking the long deadlock over how to exchange prisoners of war, the only major issue blocking a Korean armistice. PASADENA. (P) — Wreckage identified as that of an air force C-47 missing since Wednesday night with six men aboard was located today at the 3500 foot level on the east side of Mt. Wilson.

Steel Strike Biting Deep Into Economy PITTSBURGH, U.S. — The nationwide steel strike, taking a bigger bite out of the country's economy each day, already has cost the steel companies nearly a billion dollars in lost production. Vitally needed steel, the lifeblood of industrial America, calls for $110 a ton. Since Philip Murray ordered 650,000 of his CIO United steelworkers to strike June 2 nearly 10 million tons of production have been lost. It is impossible to guess how much the strike has cost America in dollars and cents. It's now hitting almost all sections of the economy. And one big steel official, Clarence B. Randall, president of Inland Steel co., feels there isn't a chance for a compromise on one of the big, if not the most important, issue—the union shop. In a statement at East Chicago, Ind., yesterday Randall termed the union's demand for a union shop the only issue in the present strike. He said six major steel producers turned down a possible compromise union shop proposal "because it involves compulsion." A union shop would require every steel worker to become a union member.
