City Bus Firm Proposes
Cut in Suburban Service
- Curtailment of suburban bus service was proposed Saturday in
lieu of increased fares for Salem bus riders.
The proposal was in the form
Franzen from C. J. Wendt, general manager of City Transit lines, who
said bus operations in the Salem area had entailed a net loss of $27,
417 for the first 9 months of 1950.
Wendt proposed that: -
(1) . The Liberty-Boone route
eliminate the 'stretch on South
12th street from highway 99 to
Fairview avenue and the run on
Liberty road between Hansen and
Madrona avenue. . 1
(2) The Fruitland-Swegle ser
vice (four trips daily) be can
celled. (3) The Four Corners bus .be
routed over Park avenue from
Center, via Park, 24th and D
streets, with rush-hour service to
Park and Sunnyview from the
city. ' '
Wendt said the changes were
necessary to avoid an increase in
fares and that "we do not believe
it proper or just to curtail essen
tial transportation within, the city
of Salem to compensate for losses
suffered by the suburban opera
tions." He asked that the changes
be effective November 1.

A communique of about 2,000

By O.- IL P. King 1
SEOUL, Oct. 21 WTV- The gov
eminent of President Syngman
Rhee will work with the. United
Nations and its field commander,
General MacArthur in complete
harmony" to win the peace in Ko
rea, the highest Korean republi
can sources let it be known today.
This includes temporarily limit
ing Rhee's authority to territory
south of the 38th parallel and
holding separate elections north of
that line under U. N. supervision,
In the long run. however, per
sons close to the republican presi
dent still feel it is "utterly ab
surd" to limit. Rhee s authority to
21,000,000 southerners and leave
10,000,000 northerners under U, N.
control.
One source close to the 'presi
dent pointed out that Maj. Gen
Chung II Kwon, commander in
chief of the republican armed
forces, is a North Korean. So are
five of his six highest ranking
staff members.
The source added:
"Must they remain exiles even
though communism has been beat
en? Will that be their reward for
fighting the reds?"
The source also pointed out that
when the communists were placed
in control of North Korea five
years ago by the Russian occupa
tion forces, anti-reds - streamed
southward to live under democra
tic rule.
Nearly 4,000,000 people In South
Korea are refugees from the north
The Rhee government balked
when first accounts arrived here
that the United Nations commis
sion on Korea favored confining
Rhee s authority to the south, put
ting rivil control of northern ter
ritory under General MacArthur
as U. N. field commander, and
calling for general elections
throughout the country.
However, Rhee has full confi
dence in General MacArthur and
in the supreme commander's dis
ere tion in selecting governors and

Bell Hung
In Berlin
By Daniel De Lace
BERLIN, Oct 21-P)-The Free
dom Bell inched up 200 feet to
day to the top of West Berlin's
city haH, where it will be rung
for the first time next Tuesday
United Nations day. :
A crowd of 3,000 Berliners
watched workmen cautiously raise
the 10-ton bell by windlass to the
city hall tower in a five-hour
operation. It arrived safely in an
American military freight car this
morning after an uneventual pass
age of 100 miles' through the Sov
iet zone.
The -bell, paid for by public
subscriptions in the United States
to a government-approved private
group known as the . National
Committee for Free Europe, was
denounced as a "death bell" by
East Germany's communist press.
The lifting of the bell went off
without a hitch, although fre
quently watchers held their
breath as the big bronze casting
narrowly passed between- fragile
pieces of wooden scaffolding. West
Berlin police arrested three girls
and four -boys of the communist
free German youth who tried, to
get onlookers to- sign petition to
ban ' the atom "bomb. " .
The bell, produced by a Croy
den. Eng., foundry, is inscribedjn
English: That this world, under
God, shall nave a new mnn oi
freedom" a paraphrase of Abra
ham Lincoln's words in the Get
tysburg address. .-

present will be U. S. Commission

French Quit
Key Fortress
In Indochina "
By Seymour Topping
SAIGON. Vienam. Indochina.
Oct 21 -9V French abandonment
of the headquarters fortress city
of Langson was announced today,
signaling the fall of the Indochina-
China frontier tone to firm control j
of the communist - led Vietminh
nationalists of Ho Chi Minn.
A French army communiaue dis
closing this development vowed
that the,3Trench will assume the
offensive after regrouping as mo
bile units and "no further with
drawal of our troops la foreseen."
But the evacuation of Langson,
part of a gradual retreat from bor
der positions, ended French chan
ces of a decisive military victory
anytime soon in the struggle for
domination of this gateway coun
try to southeast Asia. .
5 Others Yielded
Five French posts had been
yielded previously.
Abandonment of the remaining
French positions, at Laokay in the
west and Moncay in the east, is
regarded here as only a matter of
time. The French defense line in
north Indochina is being shifted
an average of about 75 miles south
ward to the northern fringes of
the rich Red river delta.
French troops began Wednes
day the withdrawal from Lang
son, which the French originally
occupied ia 1885. French authori
ties said the movement proceeded
efficiently under air force cover,
and clashes with Vietminh were
limited to small skirmishes.
Good Connections
Yielded to the Vietminh Is
near impregnable mountainous
base area with good trans-frontier
connections to supply sources and
training centers in Red China.
This means the Soviet-backed
Ho Chi Minh regime has the space
and means of preparing a full scale
military offensive against the prin
cipal French strongholds farther
south. The purely guerrilla phase
pf the four-year-old war in indo
china has ended.
The turning point was. marked
this month by a series of stunning
reverses for the French frontier
garrisons. In twoweeks, the
French lost more than 3,000 of
their first line troops.
During their first successful en
gagement with major French for
ces, the Vietminh disclosed a sulk
ing power that for this early, date
was unforseen. That was the most
significant aspect of the Vietrninh
victories.

GOP Postcard Campaign
'-rf s'"' r By Associated Ttna ',' - . -
Republicans bombarded the
nunaauons or. jruman . poucy in
into tbe mails went a flood of double-sized postcards 'bearing
14 questions, most of them on Korean bolicr ' whirh Ron. Turiri r.
Minn) recently, read to the house
administration to answer them.
Some of the Questions:
"Why . did (secretary of state)
Acheson. invite the communists to
take over Korea, Formosa, and
China? Why did President Tru
man insist that Chiang Kai-shek
take communists into the Chinese
government? What went with the
$95,000,000,000 spent on national
defense since world war two?"
Democratic Senator Anderson of
New Mexico, executive vice-chair
man of his party's national com
mittee, said he understood at least
8.000,000 of the postcards were be
ing mailed postage-free under the
franking privilege of republican
congressmen.
Anderson accused the republi
cans of spending public funds to
send out "phoney and fraudulent
campaign material." He added in
statement:
These questions are based upon
misinformation, misunderstanding
and downright misrepresentation.
Each of them has been answered
time after time and the false as
sumptions on which they are based
have been thoroughly exposed,"
Anderson said the Truman ad
ministration has taken firm meas
ures to check communist aggres
sion while "at almost every step
these measures have been opposed
by isolationist republican leaders."
Republican sources said the
number of postcards being mailed
was. not 8,000,000 but about 3,200,-
000. .
The, democratic national com
mittee made public a series of an
swers by Rep. Mike Mansfield
(D-Mont) to Judd s questions. The
answers included: .
1 Acheson never Invited the
communists to take over any ter
ritory. He laid down a Pacific line
that the U. S. would defend by
itself and announced that aggres
sion elsewhere in the far east
would be resisted by the United
Nations. '
2 President Truman didn't in
sist upon Chiang's government
taking in communists. He called
for "a strong, united and demo
cratic China" and for an end to
the Chinese civil war. -
3 Almost half of this country's
postwar defense spending went to
liquidate the cost of world war II.
The rest went for essential pur
poses such as feeding and equip
ping the armed forces and operat
ing the Berlin airlift
Albert B. Hermann, executive di
ector of the GOP national com
mittee, said Anderson's "hysteri
cal protests demonstrate the alarm
of the democrats oyer the issues
of this campaign." a
- "If we had the money, we would
certainly see to it that each voting
American had a copy of the 14
questions 'to study before he goes
