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

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.
Lumber Auction Dated

PORTLAND UP) For the
first time since World War II,
the army will hold a lumber auc
tion here the week of Sept. 11.
Col. Donald S. Burns of the

be an experiment to determine
whether the army's increased de
mands for lumber could be satis
fied better with auctions.
Since the war, the army has
bid basis.
The date for the auction will
be announced later.
