1,152-ton British ammunition ship
Bedenham blew up today with an
earth-shaking blast as she un
loaded at this Mediterranean rock
fortress. Ten workers were be
lieved killed and more than 1,000
injured.
Naval authorities said 500 tons
of ammunition all aboard the
Bedenham went up in smoke.
The blast, described by witnesses
as the "worst ever heard," smash
ed nearly all the windows in Gib
raltar town at the base of the rock
and shattered others in La Linea,
a mile away on the Spanish main
land. Many of the injured were
victims of flying glass.
It was understood a fire on a
lighter alongside the Bedenham
touched off the ship's cargo of am
munition as it was being carried
to storage, houses at the ordnance
wharf. The lighter also blew up.

The American Friends (Quak

publishing advertisements headea

ful; to their firm belief in peace
the Quakers pose the question:
"Which shall it be: Swords or
Plowshares?" The advertisement

containment of communism ana
rearmament to resist its extension
It professes to see a global stale
mate of indefinite duration as two
great 'powers pile up their arma

crack under the strain.
The "other way" the Friends
committee proposes includes the
following:
1. A new kind of negotiation.
This contemplates a fresh and less
rigid approach, more flexibility in
instructions to negotiators, less
publicity during sessions but full
publicity afterwards, open-mind'
edness with an aim for results
rather than to win an argument.
2. Strengthening of United Na

3. A new approach to disarma
ment now. All parties stand to
gain from lightening the arma
ment burden. New discussions
should be undertaken toward this
goal, which would quicken the
hopes and faith of millions.
4. Economic, financial and tech

effort to eradicate poverty and
disease. It would substitute plow

Authorities were investigating the
possibility of sabotage.
Naval authorities said in an in
terview tonight the cause of the
incident had not yet been ascer
tained. Gibraltar estimates of the total
casualties exceeded that of the
British admiralty in London.
A British admiralty statement
put the number of dead at six and
indicated that neither the ship's
captain nor any of the crew of 25
were among this number. The ad
miralty said there were some in
juries,, however, among the crew.
Most of those unloading the ship
were Spaniards from the main
land. The explosion hurled crewmen
and dockworkers into the air and
sent up huge clouds of billowing
smoke. It caused panic among
many residents of Gibraltar town.
Women ran screaming toward air
By Lester F. Cour
Staff Writer. The Statesman
. Hopes that the 1951 legislature might wind up today were tossed
out the window Friday when the senate and house tax committees
were unable to agree on a revenue program for the next two years.
The senate tax committee voted 6 to 1 for a house-passed bill to
levy a 3-cent-a-package tax on cigarets, but refused to concur ini the
remainder of the house-passed tax program. I
The house voted to increase the price of cigarets an additional
2 cents a pack when it approved 40 to 18 a senate-passed cigaret fair
trades act. The increase will go into effect as soon as the governor
signs the blil.
The bill sent to the governor will require retailers to sell cigarets
10 per cent above cost and wholesalers 4 per cent. 1
The cigaret tax will be decided
in the senate today. If passed, it
would bring in about $5,000,000 a
year, and would help offset a $12,
000,000 budget deficit during the
next two years.
About $7,000,000 of the total
budget shortage was brought about
when the ways and means com
mittee approved a $7,000,000 state
building program. While the cig
aret tax is not tied to the building
program, it would finance the pro
gram during the next two years.
Bars Referendum
The fair trades provision linked
with the cigaret tax was passed
to insure that tobacco wholesalers
will not refer the tax measure to
the people. The cigaret levy has
been defeated by the voters five
times in the past after being pass
ed in the legislature.
The disagreement between the
house and senate tax committees
Friday virtually assured that the
legislature will not wind up its
work for another week.
Adjournment next Friday would
make the session 117 days Jong, 20
days longer thaa-iiie pr e v i o u s time
record of 97 days set in 1949.
Income Tax Block
The principle stumbling block
confronting the tax committees is
whether income tax funds should
be placed directly in the general
fund. The house wants to transfer
the funds, but the senate wants to
use them first to offset property
taxes.
The differences between the two
committees will be settled by con
ference, probably not for another
week. The senate committee in
dicated it will either take a week
to study the house-passed program
or will eliminate the entire pro
cram except the cigaret tax for
this session.
Another barrier to adjournment
cropped up Friday when the sen
ate elections and privileges com
mittee clashed over whether to re
port out legislation to reapportion
the legislature.
Discards House Bill
The senate committee discarded
a house-passed bill, drew up one
of its own but couldn't decide
whether to introduce it.
Sen. Angus Gibson, Junction
City, chairman of the senate com
mittee, said the house held up ac
tion on reapportionment until too
late in the session.
The house adjourned until Mon
day at 10 a.m., but the senate faces
a lengthy calendar when it meets
today. The house moved swiftly
Friday to clear its calendar of 40
bills, while the senate bogged down
on several controversial issues be
fore finishing its work.
Give Pay Raises
A bill sent to the governor by
the senate would create.a depart
ment of finance and organization
under the governor.
Supreme and circuit court judg
es would receive a 10 per cent pay
increase under a bill approved in
the house and sent to the senate.
Supreme court judges would get
$10,450 a year and circuit court
judges $9,350.
Another bill sent to the senate
by the house would give district
attorneys and their deputies In
creases averaging 10 per cent.
The senate will meet at 10 a.m.
today and the house at 10 a jn.
Monday.

Allies Yield" All Along
Seoul Menaced
By Advancing
Communists
By Don Hath
TOKYO, Saturday, April 20-JP)
-The allies were withdrawing all
along the muddy Korean battle-
front today before-Chinese com
munists hordes who cut a vital
east-west supply road and men
aced Seoul.
United Nations forces on the
western front pulled back an un
specified distance north of the
ruined capital of south Korea.
Until the new withdrawal heavy
fighting had swirled within 10
miles of the battered city.
Thousands of civilians streamed
south out of Seoul while allied
artillery within the city hammered
away at the onrushing reds.
Kapyong Abandoned
On the central front, the stra
tegic highway town of Kapyong
on the important Seoul-Chunchon
highway was abandoned to at
tacking communists.
Kapyong, 33 air miles northeast
of Seoul, lies on the road which
has linked the western front with
the central front.
The enemy cutting of the high
way, however, was too late to
trap any allied units. Reports to
eighth army headquarters said all
allied troops in the area had
withdrawn before Kapyong fell.
Of all the hard-won U.N. terri
tory in north Korea only a nar
row bridgehead remained between
the Pukhan river and the Inje
Hyon road on the mountainous
east-central front.
Munsan Threatened
Back in the west, the U.S.
eighth army communique said the
communists put heavy pressure on
the allies south of Munsan all day
Friday. But in the late afternoon
U.N. forces broke contact and
withdrew to a new defense line.
Munsan, 23 air miles northwest
of Seoul, is on one main red In
vasion path leading to Seoul. Along
this path were massed an esti
mated 300,000 Chinese reds.
The pressure of this horde was
felt in terrific fighting around
Uijongbu, gateway to Seoul 11
miles north of the capital.
An entire enemy battalion was
destroyed northeast of Uijongbu
by artillery and rifle fire.
Rain, haze and smoke hampered
the strong allied aerial strikes. But
carrier-based naval planes and
land based fighters and bombers
of the fifth air force teamed to
help pile up the huge toll of com
munist casualties.
Some 625 sorties were flown in
spite of the weather.

"honored Douglas Mac-

a native son today with a roaring
six-hour homecoming celebration.
"I cannot tell you with what
emotion I come again to my an
cestral home," the general of the
army told 60,000 persons jammed
into MacArthur square when lt
was over. "The warmth of the
welcome has moved me more
deeply than words can express and
has etched on my heart a memory
I will not forget."
Thus ended an absence of 39
years, although, as the general
said, "It was 52 years ago that
Milwaukee sent me forth into the
military service."
He added, "I report to you that
service now Is ended."
At that point the crowd stopped
him, roaring "No, no. But he
smiled, waved his hand to stop
the protest and concluded, "I want
you to know that I have done my
best and always have I kept the
soldier's faith."
From his speech, during which
MacArthur square named six
years ago -by the city was dedi
cated, the general and his party
went directly to Billy Mitchell
field. After a lingering, farewell,
he took off for New York in the
Constellation Bataan at 5:55 p.m.
Altogether, the general, his wife,
son and party were greeted by
crowds police estimated at between
750,000 and 1,000,000 persons,

Rollback on
Prices Seen
WASHINGTON, AprU 27HV
The government plans to an
nounce dollars-and-cents ceiling
prices on beef Saturday night.
Officials who reported this to
night raid the orders provide for
S regressive rollbacks on prices t
ve cattle with - eventual low
prices to consumers but with
immediate effect on retail prices
of meat.
One official told a reporter tne
orders - will bring cutbacks of
three to four cents a pound s
retail in mid-summer, with -similar
reduction to follow ml -fall.
Price Director Michael V. Di
Salle was reported to have met
stiff opposition from the agricul
ture department in his plan to cut
cattle prices. Reporters were tfcld
the final decision to go aneaa
made at the White House Jevl.
Held Up Two Weeks
The meat orders, which have)
been in preparation for wethsu
have been held up for the Ul
two weeks because of uncertainly
as to whether the live cattle
duction would be put into ef !.
The regulations will establn
dollars-and-cents ceilings for bt
at wholesale and retail levels ad
regulate the price which packets
may pay for live cattle. By att
ting a ceiling which may be puid
for , live animals, the governrts
would be putting the rollback jut
effect. .
Meat prices are now frozen un
der the general freeze on prices
and consequently there is a vaiia
tion in the top prices for dilierent
meat products based on the tore-to-store
differences prevailing
when the general freeze went into
effect.
Fix Specific Prices
The forthcoming price order
will fix specific prices for differ
ent types of meat items sold at
retail, in addition to fixing whole
sale prices and prices on live cat
tie. But officials said while the fix
ing of retail price levels for ineat
might result in some adjustment
there would be no substantia
changes insofar as the consumer
is concerned.
An office of price stabilization
(OPS) official said that any start
ing at the live animal base a price
squeeze on wholesalers and i
tailers will be relieved. Slaugh
terers have had to pay steadily
rising prices for animals but hwve
been forbidden to pass on the"
Increased costs. " ,
Cot Back Expected
One OPS official who helped
draft the beef price orders muid
they would do this generally:
Provide for a rollback at once
in live cattle prices with no ins
mediate change in wholesale and
retail prices.
There would be another cutback
In live cattle prices about mid
summer accompanied by reduc
tions at wholesale and retail.
A third reduction across the
board at wholesale and retail
and in the prices slaughterers mai
Day for live animals is schedi
for next fall. This cut, the of fic
said, would bring the overall re
tail reduction to an estimated eev
en to eight cents a pound.
The delay in cutting wholesale
and retail prices at once will givf
feeders, who buy live cattle axtd
fatten them for slaughter a chaoc4
to dispose of the high priced cat '
tie they have on hand, the f
ficial said. Otherwise they would
be faced with heavy losses.
