S. has placed In high positions "Japanese of the cnaracter oi inose on irau in Khavarovsk." 4. The U. S. is transforming Japan into Its principal military base In the Far East. Pravda said a large area had been located for carrying out U. s. experiments oi spreaing germ infection from planes. Pravda quoted the late defen se secretary James V. Forreotal ae savlne research in eerm war fare should be continued so thai the United States "should be able to make use of bacteriological weapons in the future." As the trial at Khabarovsk con tinues, Moscow radio reported that a Japanese germ warfare unit had Infected 3,000 Chinese war prisoners with typhoid fever In 1942 and then released them to start an epidemic among clvt lians. The broadcast, reporting the Siberian war crimes trial of 12 Japanese army officers captured In 1945, said a witness testified the prisoners were fed bread rolls containing typhoid and para typhoid germs. All 12 defendants are reported to nave pieaaea eullty to developing germ war fare before and during world war two. The testimony, accoring to the official account, came irom a medical assistant named Furui chi, who worked with the Japa nese Kwantung army's top secret germ warfare agency known as "unit 731." Other human guinea pigs were said to have been used to test blister gas and frostiblte. "All of these people experi mented upon and doomed to a most painful death," the witness said, "were kept in prison. One of the defendants, MaJ. Masao Onoue, was reported to have told the court that the ex periments cost "many hundreds of lives." Births At Mercy Hospital PHIPPS To Mr. and Mrs. Os car Clarence Phipps, box 151 Dil lard.

Marked increases in industrial, commercial and residential power consumption throughout North west have outdistanced growth In basic generating capacity, caus ing Inability to supply new Indus tries which would provide needed employment. Suggestions Listed Here are some of the sugges tions Sawyer said he received for assistance by the federal govern ment: Foreign Trade. Citrus growers urged that the ECA undertake to support their European markets. Flour millers complained too much wheat, and not enough flour, is going to Japan. Water and Power. It was strongly urged by local officials that the federal government ac celerate its power development program and provide municipal power systems with more power. Publlo Works. There was con siderable interest in federal aid for advance planning of local pub-1'- works and in financial aid for actual construction in a program tailored to fit actual needs. There was no significant sentiment iur lavish federal spending on state and local public works as an un employment remedy. New Industries. The services of the federal departments were earnestly requested by local pub lic and private groups seeking to attract new industries to the west coast. Morse Backs Truman In Stand On Coal Slash (Continued from Page One) for an 80-day strike-halting in junction toward that end. Morsa Cites Distinction But Morse said his opinion as a lawyer is that the President's national emergency powers un der the T-H act can be used only in cases where there is an actual critical strike or the threat of such a strike. "There is a great difference," Morse told newsmen, "between a dispute which causes economic losses and suffering and one which imperils national health or safety. "A coal dispute could very well reach the latter proportions, but obviously the present one has not done so to date, nor is there any likelihood it will if the three day week is continued." Wherry Raps Truman Morse, who wants the Taft Hartley law repealed, thus took sharp issue with Senator Wherrv of Nebraska, the Republican floor leader. Two days ago Wherrv said there was "deplorable evi dence of negligence in the fact Mr. Truman has not used he Tatt-Hartley act to restore ' lull time production of coal. Wherry also accused Mr. Tru man of failln? to enforce the T-H law because he doesn't like the measure and wants it wiocd off the books. The President has said he will use the law If a national emer gency develops. But he has ex pressed no opinion as to whether he would have the legal right to Invoke the law under the pres ent circumstances when Lewis could argue in court that pro duction limitation is no strike.

Only a blizzard that "sews the country up tight" can prevent a death toll off at least 330 over the New Year's holiday,. Dearborn said. "But let's depend on ourselves and not the weather man," he added. The Fourth of July holiday took the heaviest toll this year a rec ord of 711 lives. The total was close to an all-time record toll for any holiday, the 761 accidental deaths recorded in four days in Christmas week, 1916. The three-day Labor .day cele bration, marked by the loss of 525 lives in accidents, set a new violent death record for the holi day. The council described th toll "appalling," and "enough to make every decent American sick at heart and boiling mad."

He added: 'The most important thing we can do now is to use our influ ence and our resources to pre vent the further expansion of communism in Asia." GOP Criticism Answered Connally said "up to $1,000, 000,000" should be cut from Mar shall plan spending next year and a "substantial sum" from this nation's own military bud get. Connally took note of criticism by Senate Republican leader Wherry of Nebraska and other Republicans on handling of the bi-partisan foreign policy. But he denied there Is any weakening of bi-partisan politi cal cooperation In the Senate "except in spots." "Some Republicans would be willing to use the bi-partisan pol icy for political advantage," he remarked. , But he insisted President Tru man has never used the policy for party gain. Connally also told his news conference that: (1) Spain should be given full diplomatic recognition and, if possible, be brought into the At lantic pact. ' (2) New arms aid for Europe may be needed after June 30 but the amount should be less than the $1,000,000,000 program voted last year. , . , , ; Cong. Stockman Reports Rep.
