With only two dissenting votes.
the 90-member committee agreed:

therefore commend the United Na

Get Long Prison Term
MEDFORD OP) "Two charges
of assault with intent to kill have
been filed against Gerald Macom
bcr, 27, wounded last Thursday
and caputred in a gun battle with
state police.
District attorney George Nielson
filed the two new charges that
stemmed from an earlier gunfight
involving two city policemen. Ma
comber was captured after ex
changing shots with slate police
man Dick Korner, who was wound
ed slightly.
Nielson said Wilma May Nichols,
at whose home Macombcr was
.arrested, had been charged with
being an accessory in the com
mission of a felony. Her bond was
set at $10,000.
The district attorney said if Ma
comber was convicted of assault,
he would charge the ex-convict
with being an habitual criminal.
Conviction on the latter charge
would result in a long term in
prison. ,

He was born Oct. 30, 1891, in

Russian Using
Korea To Test U.S.
"trength, Theory
WASHINGTON UP) Russia
may be trying to lure the United
Statea into so great- a military
effost in Korea that could be
helpless to challenge large-scale
aggression elsewhere.
Illustrating this ia a question
posed for President Truman at a
news conference and his cautious
reply.
He waa asked. "Are we prepared
to resist argression everywhere in
the world?
His renlv was that the situation
would have to be met as it de-.
veloped.
Military leaders at the Pentagon
attach importance to persistent ru
mors of concentration of Chinese
Communist frfrces and the enroll
ment of Russian volunteers for tne
aid of the North Korean Commun
ist army.
But this foreign-power help may
not be thrown suddenly into the
war to crusn soutn Koreans ana
drive American forces out of Korea
for a quick victory. Instead, the
Moscow-dictated strategy may be
to feed the helo in gradually, al
ways maintaining superiority in
force and compelling tne unuea
States to put more and more div
isions, planes and warships into
the campaign.
Meanwhile in these early months
of the war, the Korean campaign
will afford Russia opportunity to
measure the battle-skill of Amer
ican troops, airmen and sailors
and equally important the effec
tiveness of American weapons.
It can also provide an index for
the Russians to decide how deter
mined and how prepared the
United States is to fight at a n y
point where Moscow pushes the
remote-control button of war.
