Wayne Morse (R-Ore.) said Sunday those who want all-out war in Asia are being unduly critical of the joint chiefs of staff. Morse defended the joint chiefs in a speech before the United Jewish Appeal regional conference here. He said the joint chiefs were doing what they could to absorb tho first shocks of ell out war, when and if they come. Morse's comments could be in terpreted1 as critical of Sen. Robert A. Taft (R.-Ohio). Taft, a candi date for Republican nomination to the presidency, criticized the joint chiefs while lie was in the Pacific Northwest last week. He said they had failed to meet commitments. Morse told his audience that! "unless we help Europe to defend i itself and to raise its standards of living, its people will be an easy prey of Communism. We cannot walk out of Europe cither militar ily or economically and have al lies," he said. "The European people are simply not going to buy the so. called perimeter defense theory of ins new isuiuiiunism in America. According to this theory, all we need to do is surround our friends abroad with American Navy and air bases and then, if Russia at tacks them, we would liberate thorn by pulverisizing their cities.

Public and press reaction be came nearly worldwide. Some resi dents of the South San Francisco tract started a move to reverse the 174-28 ballot by which Sing Sheng, his wife and 2 year old son were voted out. Sheni? started it tbv Invltintf a 'Democratic ballot" on his a3- missoio to the tract, where he'd made a $2,950 payment on a $12,000 home. He is an airline mechanic and former Chinese Nationalist army oil icer. O. M. Brown, spokesman for a Southwood .roup seeking reversal of the Saturuay vote declared: "A lot of us are still Christians who believe in God and are glad to have any honorable man living among us." Shcng, 25, said he had received offers of 30 homes in the Bay area, Oregon, Wichita, Kansas, and In diana. But he wanted to live in South San Francisco near his job. Comment From Hong Kong In Hong Kong, China, the Hong Kong Standard said Sheng was the victim of his "enduring faith in all the Democratic balderdash on which the world has of late been fed." The Standard, owned by Chinese millionaire Aw Boon Haw. is nor mally pro-American and anti-Communist. The paper commented that Sing Shcnir "is as much to blame as his would-be neighbors" when he was voted out last Saturday in an election he himself proposed. "The ideals of Democracy, like the ideals of Christianity, are to be nurtured, not be lightly ex perimented with," the newspaper said. "In spite of the miracles one reads of in the Bible, no one is supposed to try to 'work miracles in every day life." NEW HARDBOARD MILL PORTLAND Wl Another hard board mill now is in production in Oregon, a 2 V4 million-dollar plant of the Oregon Lumber Com pany at Dee in Hood River County. President A. C.

Si mha G33G33P Un WBNHAKD COUTUft fOITlAHO, OUOOM West Germany Denied Equal NATO Rights By ARTHUR GAVSHON LONDON 11 The Big Three foreign ministers met with Chan cellor Konrad Adenauer Monday to tell him that West Germany so far can share in Atlantic Pact plan ning and strategy only as a mem ber of the European Army, not as a full member of the North At lantic Treaty Organization. The British, French and Ameri can diplomats joined Adenauer at Britain s f oreign uuice 10 leu miu their answer to the West German Parliament's demand for an equal voice in NATO in exchange for German troops for Western De fense. France was reported to have in sisted on a distinction in the pow ers of a proposed four-power ap peals tribunal to pardon or parole convicted German war criminals. Cong. Doughton, 88, Not To Seek Re-Election WASHINGTON W! Chairman Robert L. Doufhton, D.-N.Cy of the House Ways and Means Com mittee announced Friday he plans to retire from Congress at the end of his present term. After making the announcement, the 88-year old 21 term veteran told reporters he sees no indica tion that Congress will consider an other general tax increase bill this year. The French said a pardon would infer the removal of guilt. ,The four ministers also were re ported to have talked about Ger many's financial contribution to European defense. The temporary council commit tee of NATO, headed by W. Aver ell Harriman, sent a report to Ade nauer Sunday estimating Ger many's ability to pay 11 V billion marks, or $2,700,000,000. The Bonn Republic previously had set nine billion marks ai the best it could do. France May Get New U.S. Aid To Battle Reds WASHINGTON W The United States is considering giving special new aid to help France carry on the fight against a Communist con quest of Indochina. State Department officials be lieve that additional assistance in the form of either dollars or increased military supplies to indo china would be sufficient, pro vided the Chinese Communists do not intervene in the Indochina war as they did in Korea. Should the Chinese Reds launch a major assault there, however, it would pose an issue of aid of a different sort whether the Uni ted States and other United Na tions would send in troops to help the French and native defense forces or strike directly at Com munist China itself. What the American government would do in that event is still un decided. Heavy Burden On Franc The problem of financial assis tance has arisen at this time because American studies of France's continuing economic cri ses have convinced officials here that maintenance of the present forces in Indochina is a heavy drain on the French economy and an important factor in France's long range ability to build up military strength in Europe. The French parliament has voted 400 billion francs about $1,100, 000,000 for the Indochina war this year. This is expected to be from one third to one-fourth of France's to tal military budget, the European section of which has yet to be fixed. If additional American aid to .ase France's Indochina burden is igreed upon, the present tentative planning here is to- begin it in fiscal 19S3 which starts July 1. President Truman'has estimated the foreign aid outlay next fiscal year will total 10 V4 billion dollars for all purposes but whether Con gress will grant this sum is yet to be determined. Negotiators In Korea Agree On Another Item MUNSAN, Korea Wl Negotia tors agreed Tuesday on the final clause :of a Korean armistice, but two major hurdles still blocked a truce settlement.
