ministration's record in . the far
cast appear aU" black. The conduct
of affairs relative to Asia by the
Roosevelt-Truman governments is
roundly condemned, from Yalta to
Korea. Fire is centered oa Secre
tary of State Acheson whose
"wait-till-the-dust-settles' . state

red dust" has settled over China,
and the United States - has lost

Asiatic flank." -.- ; -L
A great deal of this bill of par
ticulars is valid. The United States
, policy respecting China has failed,
in one of the greatest diplomatic
defeats in American history. We
backed the. losing horse (though
the COP'S choice of the adjective
"strong" as applying to the Chiang
Kai-shek government is hardly
pt). The USA was pushed out of
China along with the nationalist
government. That was the situa
tion when Secretary Acheson took
over. The American China policy
he inherited was virtually a bank
rupt estate. -. - : V --; " j ;
The republican "white paper"

Crypl
tic Note
Affirms Stand
WASHINGTON, Aug. 29-(V-In
sarcastic words, John L. Lewis
served notice today that his Unit
ed Mine Workers will not be
bound by any pledge other union
leaders may make to keep the la
bor peace.
"We do our own no-stmang,'
he wrote in a "memo" to AFL
President William Green.
He left the usual Lewis uncer
tainty as to just how much, the
communication means. There was
no immediate way to tell whether
the coal miners and the miscel
laneous workers organized with
them consider the strike weapon
an appropriate one for the times.
Slashes at Green -
What he had to say on the point
was cryptic: ,
"I am sure you win pardon me
when I suggest that the mine
workers are cot yet ready for you
to sell them down the river. Re
strict your pledges to your own
outfit We do our own no-strut
ing." - - - -
That followed a sentence tell
ing Green that "the press chron
icles you as plodding about the
countzty seeking someone to whom
you can give a "no - striae
pledge.
Green slashed back: quickly m
language with about as many
barbs as Lewis own.
His basic suggestion. In the
politest words, was that Lewis
might b out of place in any
group adopting a no-strike policy
"in order to defend our country
and save it from communist ag
gresston." -----Strike
rrosapta'Staad
"However, let me inform you In
positive terms, as X have stated
publicly, that we stand ready now,
as we did in world war II when we
gave the no-strike pledge, to do
so whenever the president of the
United States advises us such ac
tion-is necessary to protect our
country against communist aggres-
szon."
There appeared no doubt that
Lewis', stand was tied up with
the fact that district W, a catch
all UMW group in which chemi
cal workers and other kinds of
non-mine labor are lumped, now is
on strike against the nation's big
gest producers of strategic soda
ash. - v
The miners kept and used
the strike weapon curing world
war II wheen large labor seg
ments gave it up.

Pro-Red Policy
WASHINGTON, Aug. 29--
The CIO completed Its 10-month
purge of unions accused of fol
lowing pro-communist policy to
day by booting .out Harry Brid
ges longshoremen and two other
west coast maritime unions.
Bridges followers immediately
considered "stop work meetings" I
to think over the action of the
CIO executive board. Some said
"we are far better off out than
in." -
The executive board vote to
oust Bridges' group was 41 to 2.
Philip Murray, CIO president,
said it completed the "biggest
venture of its kind ever under
taken in this or any other coun
try" to .free a labor organization
of far-left elements.
i . Bridges himself has Just been
freed under bond pending appeal
from his conviction lor perjury.
The CIO started at its conven
tion last November to oust 12
unions under left-wing leader
ship. The 12 claimed a million of
the CIO s six million members.
Bounced out of the CIO with
Bridges were the Marine Cooks
and Stewards, and the Fisherman
and. Allied Workers which two
months ago had merged with the
Bridges union. .
Besides completing the purge,
the CIO executive board at a busy
all-day session made a number of
policy declarations.
It pledged full support to the
Korean war and condemned what
it called "the despicable tactics"
of Jacob Malik, the Soviet Union
delegate to the United Nations
security council.
The CIO opposed economic aid
either to Spain or Argentina.

Prompts Action
Truman Given
Broad Powers
By Congress
. WASHINGTON', Aug. fd-CPJ-A
senate-house conference commit
tee broke a deadlock on anti-inflation
legislation tonight by agree
ing to give President . Truman
broad authority to apply wage and
price controls on a selective basis.
Senator Maybank (D-SC) an
nounced the agreement after hours
of wra angling over -how much
lorn the president should be
allowed to invoke controls.
"Some details of the legislation
still remain to be worked out by
the conference committee.' But
Maybank predicted this would be
done speedily tomorrow morning.
Subject to Approval '
Whatever compromise the con
f erees agree upon is still subject
to final approval by the house and
the senate before the legislation
can be sent to the White House.
The scrap which for several days
deadlocked efforts to iron out dif
ferences betweeen separate -bills
passed by the house and senate
centered on whether the president
should be allowed to put wage and
price controls into effect bit by
bit or on almost everything if be
imposed any at alL
The conference committee de
cided to allow the president to
place price ceilings on individual
items without applying them
across-the-board.
But the compromise also pro
vides that when a price ceiling
has been placed on a particular
item, the president must clamp
wage controls on the industry or
business producing it
Accept life Limits
As passed by the , senate, the
controls bill would have required
the president, if he used his price
control powers at all, to put price
ceilings oon almost everything and
at the sam etime to apply general
wage controls.
The senate conferees accepted
a provision in the house bill lim
iting the life of the legislation to
June 30, 1951. The senate bill had
provided for its expiration a year
later.
The revised legislation would
require that when price ceilings
have been placed on a "substantial
part" of all retail sales, the presi
dent would be required to impose
price ceilings and wage controls
generally.
Prepares Fireside Chat
President Truman, meanwhile,
was writing a fireside chat on the
Koreaan war its progress, its
I aims and its future cost in blood,
dollars and civilian sacrifice.
The time' of the broadcast-tele
cast was not fixed because.
White House official said, congress
has not yet given Mr. Truman the
limited mobilization powers he
asked six weeks aeo.
Th need for control and do-
mestic belt-tightening, to arm the
fighting forces and quash infla
tion, was expeciea w oe jut. -i.ru-Bon'i
major theme.
But the White House official
said military matters and interna
tional affairs also win be covered.
This led to the belief that the
president win reaffirm this coun
try's peaceful intentions and dis
avow any aggressive aims.

NEW ORLEANS. Aug. 29 -CP)
A gulf hurricane was poised 430
miles south of New- Orleans to
night and the weather bureau said
the storm was moving slowly in
northwesterly direction toward
the middle gulf coastal area.
The 9:30 pjn. (Central Stand
ard Time) advisory by the weath
er bureau said indications are
for slow movement probably in
northwesterly direction at
about five miles per hour for the
next twelve hours.
Strongest winds were reported
as 85 to 95 miles per hour.
Forecaster R. H. Kraft said
present indications were that the
hurricane, which has moved for
ward, very slowly during the 12
hours preceding .tonight's advis
ory, appeared to be headed for
the middle gulf area.
Neither Kraft nor Chief Fore
caster W. R. Stevens would esti
mate how long it might take the
hurricane to strike land, nor
would they give a closer defini
tion of where it might move in
land.
Kraft said the storm has mov
ed 100 miles in 24 hours.

TOKYO. Wednesday. Aug. 20
(JP)- Twenty thousand North Ko
rean reds, supported by artillery,
made a two-pronged bid today .
for the port city of Pohang. Oth
er thousands iougnt down a
mountain road in a move to flank
the American supply bar: of -
Taegu from the east.
General MacArthurs spokes
man called both of these drives
"major efforts.
Both pushes gained slightly, at
one point more than a mile. v
The frontal push from the north
on Pohang, second only to Pusan
as a United Nations supply port.
reached within three miles of that
city on the east end of the 120
mile battle perimeter. As another
menace to Pohang, a second red
force drove South- Koreans out of
Kigye, nine miles to the north
west, and made them withdraw
mile and a half. Red infiltrator
also set up a new roadblock three
miles southwest of - Pohang.
End ef Battle Are
The . flanking attempt against
Taegu still was 18 miles north
east of that city near Uihung.
Pohang and Uihung form the)
ends of a battle arc of 40 miles
which curves across a mountain
oust -northern front This is the
sector to which the reds shifted
an estimated 50,000 troops after,
losing the costly frontal push on
Taegu. These represent about half
of the 110,000 North Koreans esti
mated to be spread out along the
entire war front.
Beginning at Pohang and swiM-
Ing all the way around the battle
perimeter, here is the situation: '
Pohang One spearhead of the
20,000-man communist force, mo-'
ving down a road along the east'
coast, pushed the South Korean
third division back to within
three miles of the port. Red mor-'
tar. and artilelry shells hit the
Third. -
Another red spearhead.' rime
miles to the northwest, infiltrated
the town of Kigye. It forced the'
South Korean capital division te
fall back from the town for a mile
and a half toward the highway
that runs south and west from.
Pohang to Taegu.
ITihanr area The South Kor
ean Eighth division last night re-'
pulsed an attack by 3,000 com-
mumsts. The South Korean Sixth
division, defending' a road be lew
Uihung that connects with the Po-'
hang-Taegue highway, were for
ced to withdraw an unspecified
distance Tuesday.
A group of 200 reds infiltrated
through the Sixth's lines but aa
Eighth army communique said tt
was "contained." .
Waegwan Quiet here tn a Nak-.
tong river sector defended ty the
U. S. First cavalry division 12
miles northwest of Taegu. Red
reinforcements were reported mo
ving into this sector.
Oiaarayenr Sector The U. S.
Second infantry division last night
broke up red attempts to sneak
troops across the Naktong river
in boats holding 10 to IS men
each. This action. In an area west
of Yongsan, 32 miles southwest ef
Taegu, is in the bloody bulge
where a 12.000-man communist
bridgehead was erased more than
a week ago.
Masaa Sector About 37 miles
west of Pusan, where mountain
peaks guard the approaches to
level country, frenzied commas
ists finally succeeded in pushing
Americans off the crest of Battle
mountain. They had failed three
times last night, once in a bayonet
attack.
At dawn today, the U. 3. 24th

outfit of the 25th division, opened
counterattacks to regain this peak.
