    2 The Statesman; Salem, Oregon. Saturday. Juno 9. 1351
WASHINGTON, June 8-VSenator Cain (R-Wash) charged to
day that senators have been "misled" by the Joint chiefs of stall into
believing Gen. Douglas MacArthur first suggested quitting Korea last
December. He demanded their recall for. further testimony. i
rain told the MacArthur inquiry group that new information on
a message from the joint chiefs to MacArthur last Dec. 29 was "very
and called lor an ex-
, startling"
pla nation.
. - He said the Joint chiefs gave a
.paraphrase of this message to the
senate armed services and foreign
relations committees which did not
X?ve an "accurate estimate of the
situation in Korea." He added "this
paraphrase did not cover "half the
subjects' in the message to Mac
Arthur. "The Joint chiefs of staff para
phrase of the message," he said,
"was largely misleading. Whether
this was an intentional act, I have
no present way of knowing.
"... on the face of the origin

ely sought to establish as being
true that the field commander

The joint chiefs and their chair

have saicKthe possibility of evacu
ation was first raised by MacAr
thur early in December.
Chairman Russell (D-Ga) of the
inquiry group agreed with Cain
"there seems to be some marked
differences in paraphrases of the
Dec 29 message.- 1 ?
But a majority of the committee
was not present at the time Cain
made his demand and Russell said
vote. Cain said he. would bring it
up later. ' ill
The question of whether Mac-
Arthur .or the Joint chiefs first
raised the prospects of an evacua
tion in Korea has been in dispute
throughout the hearing.. i
The testimony shows that early
in December Army Chief of Staff
J. Lawton Collins then in Tokyo
reported to Washington that
MacArthur : beheved it would be
best for the UJ. to r arrange an
armistice on the best tends avail
able as soon as possible.' ;
And later Collins reported Mac-
Arthur had discussed evacuation
with his army commanders,'

Protest off
OPS Ceilings
A hundred Saiem-area! butchers
made it dear Friday night that
they don't care much for OPS
prices and regulations.
And anyone who thinks meat
dealers are getting rich . selling
dollar-a-pound steaks should have
sat in with those Marion and Polk
county market operators, whole
salers and packers. - i
They were assembled to hear
Marion Grazer, meat spokesman
from Portland OPS headquarters.
comment on recent regulations.
"I don't imagine any of your
meat markets have shown a very
large profit : for three or four
months, especially on beef," Graz
er, told the group at the start.
ur Questions -
Soon butchers were pelting him
with questions such as, why are
there two grades, of ground beet?
Why does it nave three ceiling
prices In three ; different - Salem
stores? And why cant we sea new
York cuts or eround round?
Grazer explained that display ox
ore-cut stew' meat, cubed steak
and similar items had been pro
hibited because grading marks
could not be seen on the meat af
ter it had been cut or tenderized.
Batchers Reminded
"The whole meat price struc
ture is based on grading," the OPS
sDokesman said.
As lor ground round: -we u
all agree that 'ground round was
not ground round; It was lean
trimmings," Grazer added. He re
minded the butchers that any ox
these special services may be per
formed for a customer after the
meat has been sold.
Grazer sympathized with oper
ators who thought present prices
were out of line. He said he felt
current beef ceiling prices must
have been influenced by the east
ern market. Regional OPS offici
als have submitted a new . list of
suggested prices for this area
which would be taked onto- an
other beef portion, he added.
rrama Attacked
The. entire OPS meat program
drew adverse comments from some
of the assembled butchers.
There is no freeze on the far
mer; why not give him a ceiling?'
said one. " '
"The farmer has money in his
pockets. He doesn't have ta sell,1
another added. .
It has opened up a perxect
black market.
"Why is the farmer protected?"
"I hate to keep repeating this.
but I can't answer that question,'
the harassed OPS official finally
said.
He closed by stating, "We have

NW Projects
Hit by.House
Budget Cuts
WASHINGTON. Jane 8-4PY-
The decision of the house approp
riations committee to recommend
against starting any new projects
ran heavily against the Pacific
northwest today.
In its report to the house, the
committee recommended cuts
totaling $125,877,443 in the army's
request for money to carry out its
rivers and harbors and flood con
trol program during the 12 months
beginning July 1.
or that total reduction S4X711,-
000 more than a third came
from projects in Idaho, Washing
ton and Oregon.
Of 1130,003,000 requested for
the three states the committee bill
retained only $87,292,000. -. .
In cutting funds for Lookout
Point Reservoir, Ore, from $18,-
633,000 to $13,000,000, the com
mittee said it was eliminating Sl,-
300,000 asked to start construction
on Dexter-re-regulating dam.
"The Dexter dam is a new proj
ect, authorized separately from
the Lookout Point reservoir," the
report said. .
Only two northwest projects
came through the committee un
scathed. The full $17,392,000 asked
for Chief Joseph dam on the Co
lumbia river and a $100,000 re
quest to continue bank protection
work on the Willamette river in
Oregon were approved. ;
Funds requested for three other
projects were pared without com
ment by the committee. It recom
mended approval of only $38,000,-
000 of the 542,300,000 asked to
continue construction of McNary
lock and dam; $15,000,000 instead
of $16,978,000 for Detroit reser
voir in Oregon; and $3,800,000 in
stead of $4,000,000 for Luck Peak
