[Hoover Says Red (Saboteurs Ready | Compiled by AI Karr l From the Hlro» of Associated Press * 1'1;I Director J. Ivlg'ar Hoover lias told senators that a “hard core of sabotage-trained (.'onininnists is ready to strike at vital industries if war comes. '1 estifyin^ before a Senate appropriations subcommittee, Hoover, said that the present fifth column menace from 4.3,217 known Communists is “far greater than in the last war with the Nazis and subversive elements.” ! le said the Communists have a “hard core today dedicated to sabotage and to militant revolt against this country if and when when the time conies, adding that sabotage “could be one of the FK'st effective weapons the enemies of the I'uited States could ttse.” Hoover s testimony, given in a series of closed door meetings with the subcommittee last month, was made available to the Associated Press. Me sunt their concentration is strongest in such industrial centers as Ts'cw York, California. Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Michigan “where, in the event of war, they can render the greatest harm to our • ountry’s productive might.1' Hoover said Communists already have "carried on considerable agitation designed to bring nbout slow-downs, work stoppages and inspire strikes” in military production industries. General Douglas MacArthur's Latest Move... . . .into the arena of world politics basically a call for recognition O'4 ^ lil ** th<-- place to make the big fight to stop world Communism ims pushed President Truman into one of the tighesl corners of his White House tenure. The President Is reported considering some disciplinary action against fhe General, but is understood to have reached no decision on what if anythmg to do about it. In this connection, Senator Knowland IK.-Cal.) said Sunday: “It t,ow appears that the hatchet-men of the administration have been lurried loose to undermine the position of General MacArthur and to kforce a reprimand or recall." Communist Troops Hurled... ...two stiff counterattacks Sunday at allied units advancing north of Korea's 38th parallel along narrow ridgelines to the rim of the Mwachon reservoir. The resistance on that central front sector, north of Chunchon, forced United Nations spearheads to withdraw temporarily. AP Correspondent Tom Hradshaw said artillery was called into I action to help repulse the lied counterthrusts. To the west, Allied reconnaissance patrols verified that Communist leaistance also was building up north of the Hantan River, field dis patches said. However, the main body of U. N. troops still had not made contact with the Reds in that area. The flareup of heavy fighting in the center coincided with an cam-1 est warning from Lt. Gen. Matthew B. Ridgeway, U. S. Eighth Army! commander, that time was no end of the Korean war in sight ilnless a political settlement was reached elsewhere — and he knew of no I negotiations for such a settlement. A C-47 Air Force Plane Crashed... . . .with n fiery explosion Sunday, killing 19 of its 21 passengers, while flying to Charleston on a funeral mission. There were two survivors. They were brought to a hospital in Charles- j ton suffering from burns and other injuries. Hospital attendants said late Sunday each had a "fifty-fifty chance of recovery." Both were burned badly about the head, face and hands and were under sedatives. The 21 persona aboard the plane were to serve as an honor guard' from Godman Field, near Louisville, Ky„ at the funeral Sunday of1 Maj. Wocftlford W. Sutherland, 34. The funeral was held as scheduled ! three hours after the tragic crash. j Sutherland, who was stationed at Godman. was killed in another | plaUP1 accident last Thursday while on an exercise mission at Elgin : j Field, Fla.

Of the four ,a committee report rated British citizen Klaus Fuchs as ! the deadliest spy in all history. The German-born scientist now is serving a 14-year jail term in England for passing atomic secrets to the Reds. The report assigned the other positions to scientist Bruno Pontecorvo, j Dr. Allan Nunn May, and American-born David Grecnglass, sentenced in New York Friday to 15 years in jail. French Army Headquarters... I .. .in Hanoi, Indochina, said Sunday a battalion of Chinese troops_ 1 probably Communist irregulars — invaded northwest Indochina last ! week and seized two border towns. French troops airlifted to the area failed, however, to contact the invaders Sunday and aerial observers found no trace of them. The French said the battalion crossed over Apr. 1, seized the border 1 town of Ban Nam Koung, marched southward eight miles to take the larger town of Phong Tho, and was headed toward the provincial capital of Lai Chau, about 170 miles northwest of Hanoi.

"Prices,” he said, "would be at least 10 per cent lower today if con trols never had been imposed and there had not been all that advance talk about them, which served to boost prices. “4ts for wage controls, labor has made it clear it won’t accept them.” Aiken joined in Congressional criticism of a proposal, reportedly being considered by the administration, to freeze farm parity as a means of curbing food prices. “That's a ridiculous idea,” said Aiken, who is the senior Republican on the Senate Agriculture Committee.
