12 The News-Review, noMbura, Korean War Russian-Baited Trap To Align Asia Against America, Sen. Wherry Says WASHINGTON jP Senator Wiley (R-Wis.) hai called for an all-out effort to keep the Chinese Communists out of the South Korean fighting. Saying that the Russian! had "baited a trap" in Asia, the ranking active Republican member of the senate foreign relations committee declared in a statement: "The greatest challenge that we now face is to use every ounce of diplomatic strategy mai we nave in preventing the Chinese Red armies from becoming involved with us in a titanic struggle. "Such a struggle would bleed us completely dry bleed us of our manpower, bleed us of our arms, bleed us of our economic strength.' The United States, he said, must use its friends in the Philippines, China, India and elsewhere to pre vent the Communists "from at tempting to stir up a race war against the United States." Wiley said he had askeo the ad ministration for a complete report on its plans to avoid tangling with the Chinese Reds in Korea and southeast Asia. Wiley made no mention of Pres ident Truman's order to the Seventh fleet to defent the island of Formosa, where the Chinese Na tionalist government is entrenched, against Communist invasion. Neither did he take note of re peated Republican demands that the United States send military supplies to the Nationalists. Achoion Blamed Senate Republican leader Wherry of Nebraska told the Senate that the responsibility for the shedding of American blood In Korea rests with Secretary of State Acheson. He said it had been Acheson's policy to equip only a South Korean police force instead of supplying the larger-scale military aid ap proved by Congress. Wiley hit a similar note in blam ing the administration for the lack of military preparedness and home front economic and defense plan ning. "In fact," he said, "all we have is the bluff and bluster of the in competent, unprepared Democratic administration." v The Wisconsin lawmaker' de fended a statement issued by him self and three other Republican foreign relations committeemen criticizing administration policies in the Far East. The statement, issued last week end and denounced by Democrats as "political pettyfogging " appar ently has ended all bipartisanship in the 13-member committee which has a major hand in implementing foreign policy. . "We will not allow the cloak of national unity to be wrapped around horrible blunders," Wiley asserted. Wherry's blast vTas set off by a statement made by Chairman Tyd ings (D-Md) of the senate armed services committee. Tydings told the Senate that the United States has spent $495,700, 000 on South Korea since World War II, and that approximately PORTLANDER WINS GEARHART, Ore.

Phone Strike May Reach Spokane TACOMA UP) Telephone sub scribers throughout the state watched anxiously for new devel opments today as the Tacoma born operators' work stoppage threatened to spread to Spokane. Communications Workers of American (CIO) operators in the eastern Washington city, adver tised in a newspaper that "tele phone service has been in terrupted in some Washington areas. It may be interrupted in more." The dispute in Spokane is essentially the same as that which started the strike in the Ta coma area "town re-classification," by which population in creases in those and other com munities would provide pay in creases for operators. Company spokesmen have de clared that contracts in the Washington-Idaho area compare favor ably with others , on the Pacific coast and that the pay received by women operators compares well with pay given women in clerical and other work in the cities in volved. Harry Higgins, president of the Tacoma area C.W.A. group, said he had scheduled a mass meeting of telephone workers in Tacoma, Monday. He gave no indication of the nature of the meeting, except to say "things are happening fast and you can expect anything to happen at any time throughout the state." Don Franklin, Tacoma area manager for the company, said no Jiickets had appeared at telephone nstallations in Olympia and Shel- ton. Plant employes, he added, were stiil working today in both cities. Franklin said Sumner operators were stili working, instead of be ing on strike as previously re ported, although the plant there was being picketed.
