Government's Mobilization
Program Bitterly Assailed
By Disgruntled Labor Heads
Bv JAMES MARLOW
WASHINGTON (AP) Organized labor, with a
stronger voice than it ever had in World War II because
it's more united now, has said "whoa" to the government's
mobilization program;
This sudden stiff stand of labor may bring a crisis
in the program unless it's soothed by concessions from
the Truman administration. Labor's first emphatic stand
was taken when three labor representatives on the Wage
Stabilization board walked out. They didn't like the wage
policy decided upon by the other six members three from
business, three representing the public.
And now there is a possibility
labor might pull its representatives done with and through the united

Altogether these 'four big organ

35 Red Divisions a
Massed In Poland,
East Germany
WASHINGTON UP T h e
Soviet Union now has a fully ar
mored or mechanized force of SS
divisions ln East Germany and
Poland alone, the State depart
ment says, and has restored East
German railways which would
serve as supply lines from Russia
in the event of war.
'Additionally, the State depart
ment report based on "current in
telligence" said, the East German
Communist party on Jan. 15 be
gan a large scale purge of its
ranks aimed at eliminating weak
linki.
The department's office of pub
lic affairs gave this information in
an official publication picturing the
background . o f recent Soviet
pressures on Germany.
The report came just when the
Big Four powers appeared to be
nearing agreement on plans for a
"peace" conference. It questioned
whether Russia really wants a Big
Four meeting. Unless the powers
can agree on discusing basic dif
ferences other than Germany
there would be little point in meet
ing, it said.
The blast followed by a few
hours the delivery In Moscow of
the latest notes by the United
States, Britain and France propos
ing a preliminary session ol the
foreign ministers' deputies in
Paris oa March 5. Moscow already
has agreed to a discussion by the
deputies of subjects to be taken up
if a Big F'our conference is held,
but insists that German rearma
ment is the top issue.
The department termed "ab
surd" a Russian proposal to talk
about Germany alone.
"Without agreement on the
agentla there would be little ooint
in having a conference," the State
department said. "Even wiin
agreement on the subjects to be
discussed, it would be an extraor
dinary conference that could re
solve such differences as have al
ready produced a war in Asia.
"By their very nature, the So
viet notes have aroused teriouf
doubts that the Kremlin actually
wants a conference. Past experi
ence and current intelligence have
made the U. S. skeptical on the
Kremlin's good faith."

Ample Gasoline
For All Assured
For This Summer
By SAM DAWSON
NEW YORK W There'll be
enough gasoline for all the Sunday
drivers and all the military forcei
this summer, without rationing and
with about the same octane rating
they now buy barring an all-out
war.
Oil economists say they feel sure
of this, but they add: The defense
program still in its warming-up
stage may put pressure on oil
at the industrial-Dower and home-
heating levels. The industry has
the facilities to meet demands as
now foreseen, but there might be
a right pinch. " "
And it could cost $5 billion or
more, some oil economists esti-
mate, to put the nation's oil facil
ities into a comfortable position to
meet all military, industrial mo
bilization, and civilian -demands in
this highly seasonal industry
ana be reaay lor emergencies.
The nation is expected to want
10 percent more gasoline this sum
mer than last. The oil industry
has the facilities to provide it,
and the petroleum administration
for defense says today it has aban
I doned its play to put ceilings on
i civilian gasoline octanes.
! Military demand for gasoline
will be only about five percent of
the total consumed. Last year the
armed services took an average
of 240,000 barrels a day, and this
year's daily average my rise to
375,000. It need not affect civilian
supplies.
The real rub if there is one
would come next winter. The rap
idly increasing demand for oil
products needed to power and heat
the nation's expanding industrial
plant, run its trains and ships,
heat a sizable portion of its homes
all will reach the usual sea
sonal peak next winter, with de
fense production needs added.
To meet the expected new record
demands the industry must make
and store more surplus fuel oil
this summer than it did last, oil
economists are warning the industry-
The American Petroleum insti
tute puts refinery capacity at 6,-
732.200 barrels a day. against only
4.956.599 in 1941. Last year de
I mand for oil products went ip
670,000 barrlcs a day, and this
I year demand is exn cted to in
: crease another 550,000 barrels a
I day.

Battle For Survival Facing
Protestant Colleges, Due
To Current U.S. Emergency
COLUMBUS, 0. (AP) Dr. E. Fay Campbell of
Philadelphia warns that Protestant colleges as a result
of the rational emergency face the most critical struggle
for survival since the civil war.
He urged adoption of emergency financial measures
by supporting churches to keep the colleges going.
Dr. Campbell is executive di-
rector of the 80-member commis
sion on Christian higher educa
tion of the newly-formed National
Council of the Churches of Christ
in the U. S. A. His statements
were in a speech prepared for de
livery before leaders of more than
30 Protestant denominations at the
first session of the commission.
Dr. Campbell pointed to dwind
ling college enrollments and re
sulting financial losses because of
(he draft and tlefonse jobs. But
the biggest loss, he added, in the
morale of American youth of col
lege age, "who seems to have lost
his grip on the future."
"None yet is on the verge of
closing," Dr. Campbell said, "but
many Protestant affiliated in
stitutions now are wrestling with
the problem of how they may stay
open beyond next June."
Some of these colleges, he added,
are older than the United States.
Dr. Campbell said the 475 Prot
estant - related colleges and 'uni
versities have assets of $500,000,
0O0 in buildings and $600,000,000
in endowments. For an enrollment
of 450,000 students, there are 25,
000 teachers, he added.
These colleges, the Philadelphian
continued, may accept tuition from
tries during a transition into de
fense work.
He said it will permit continued
production of consumer durable
goods at very high levels "in
most instances, at levels never at
tained before 1949 and 1950."
Percent Of Recoveries '

ficer reported.
Col. Laurence A. Potter, assis
tant chief of medical plans, and'
operations in the office of the army
surgeon general told 350 reserve
medical officers this represents a
big gain over previous records.
During World War II, he said.
96 percent of the wounded re
covered. And during the first world
war 92 percent pulled through.
Col. Potter said the .oslMe
menace, has been emphasized Too

frostbite victims are treated in the
area, he said, and only 10 percent

In surveying the present situa

emergency were operating with
the worst deficits in their history.

Bridge Job Points
To Access Road
An important step toward secur
ing access to more than one bil
lion board - feet of federal tim
ber in Josephine county was taken
by the Bureau of Land Manage
ment early this month when Re
gional Administrator Daniel L.
Goldy approved a contract pro
viding for the reconstruction of the
Hellgale bridge across the Rogue
river on the Merlin-Galice county
road.
The contract, which provides for
bridge reconstruction and the im
provement of bridge approaches at
a cost of approximately $62,000,
was awarded to Grosberk and
Ilickson, contractors at Eugene,
by the Portland office of the Bu
reau of Public Roads with the con
currence of the Bureau of Land
Management. Work on the project,
the first to be undertaken by the
B. L. M. in western Oregon for
the improvement of timber access
roads, is to be completed by Sept.
1, 1951.

South Korean Soldier Still
Lacks Qualities Necessary
To Cope With Chinese Reds
By HAL BOYLE
NEW YORK (AP( The fate of Korea In the long
run depends on G. I. Kim.
He's the native equivalent of G. I. Joe. And when
G. I. Joe finally goes home it is going to be up to private
Kim to defend his own country.
Whether he can do it is doubtful. For after nearly
eight months of war the stature of- Private Kim as a sol
dier is still in question. No one is sure just what he can
do and can t do in combat.
Right now a fresh army of 200,
000 to 300.000 Private Kims is being
built up in South Korea. It should
be ready for action some time
this spring and put new punch into
to Republic of Korea's fighting
power.
"The big problem with the ROKS
is that they simply won't fight the
Chinese on an overall basis," said
an American staff officer. "They
are scared to death of them. A
few units have stood up well
against the Chinese, but others
just disintegrated completely."
There are many reasons for this.
Here are three:
1. The average South Korean
recruit hasn't had enough basic
training to take the shock of major
battle.
2. He knowi that for centuries
In the orient Korea was known as
"little brother" and China as "big
brother."
3. The ROK divisions are smaller
than American divisions and lack
their artillery and tank strength.
Rice Crop Chief Interest
What kind of a fellow is Private
Kim generally, he is a rather
dazed young country boy who has
spent most of his life padding
around a rice paddy. He doesn't
have- much education and knows
little about the clash of interna
tional ideologies that has made
his land a bloody battleground. His
chief interest ia in his family and
his rice crop.
Going into Ine army was to him
a shattering experience. He may
have had only ten days of train
ing fired one clip from his
rifle before he was put into
the front lines. He has been told
that he is now a soldier, but he
doesn't really feel like one. No
body in his family ever was a
soldier. All he feels is lost and
lonely and homesick.
Is it any wonder that Private
Kim often drops his rifle and
heads back full speed in the gen
eral direction of the rice paddy
he remembers best?
Has Making of Soldier
But basically he has everything
it takes to make a first class
fighting man. He is stoical. He can

ably get their big test against the
Chinese this spring. On their per
formance will hinse the real fu
ture of Korea.
"These men should be the equal
of any soldiers in the world," said
one American officer. He added
