wrangling was on the standardi
zation of arms. Informants said
the allies are ready to adopt the
United States .SO-caliber M-l Gar-
and as the standard army rifle.
A changed British attitude ap
parently made possible these ten
tative agreements. They were
reached by the, military committee
of the 12 Atlantic allies, meeting
at the Foro, Italico which once was
known as Mussolini's forum.

Casualties Pass
lC0,CC0Mark!
WASHINGTON. Nov.
Tbe American casualty toll In IS
months of battle in Korea passed
the 100,000 mark today, establish
ing the limited Asian conflict as
the fourth costliest war In u. S.
history, r
A new defense department sum
mary added 950 killed, wounded
and mining since last week, for a
total of 100,178 individual casual
ties reported to American families
throurh last Friday. ;
The actual battle toll todav
stands higher than this figure, as
the official announcements gener
ally run about two weeks behind
the combat action. i (
Not until the campaign is over
will all the Korean casualties be
known in this country. Military
regulations forbid publication of
the number of Americans stricken
by disease or who have died from
non-battle causes. !
The new total included 16J72
deaths and 10,871 currently miss
ing in addition to more than 72,000
wounded. - ,
The figures for deaths and miss
ing may be radically altered should
sufficient evidence be produced to
confirm Gen. Matthew Ridgways
estimate that some 8,000 American
prisoners of war may have been
killed by Chinese and North Ko
rean Reds. 1 - i " j
Of those who have died In Ko
rea, the bodies of more than 10.000
have been returned to the UJS, for
burial in national or private ceme
teries. And more caskets are on the
way home.
The battle losses sustained In
Korea are greater than those suf
fered during some of the bitterest
campaigns of World War IL

Turkeys Don't Know Enough
To Come in Out of the Rain l
- By Ed Oea -.1 - - -I
WASHINGTON, Nov. 11 -(P)-Bet you didn't know turkeys art
terrible-tempered when they're in love.
Or that they don't know enough to come in out of the rain.' 1
Or, for that matter, that the word "turkey may have come to us
from a Hebrew word meaning "peacock." ' j .
I didn't know these things, either, until I approached the depart
ment of agriculture for some
Thanksgiving-type infor mation.
Then one word led to anotaer and
I reeled out with ail sorts of turkey
lore which you're welcome to bor
row for table! talk tomorrow. i
For instance: the - bird "you're
likely to be devouring belongs to
the largest crop In history. This
country is growing 52.S00.OO0 tur
keys this year, compared with 45,-
700,000 In 1930.
I This is no imean tribute to the
American turkey fanner, for the
big birds are infernally bard to
raise. They get all sorts of ail
ments c h i c k e n pox (honest!),
blackhead, limberneck and mycosis
of the crop, among them. They are
subject to nasty head colds and
have never heard of anti-hista
mines. - ! -
i Young turks, called poults, are
especially delicate. Some growers
go so far as! to wipe their feet
when they get wet. This happens
pretty often, too, for turkeys young
or old are not very long on brains.
They huddle together, or just stand
there looking foolish, instead of
taking shelter In a storm.
Male turkeys - are determined.
quarrelsome lovers. There s no liv
ing with one of them when another
has the inside track with the hen
he covets. The females go into deep
seclusion wnen setting. It s a man
sized job to pry loose one from her
nest. : i
Why is a turkey called a 'turkey?
There are all sorts of explanations.
The Encyclopedia Britannlca says
it's because of a mistaken belief
they came from Turkey. The office
dictionary says the name was first
applied to the guinea cock, which
did come from Turkey.
A more Ingenious explanation,
though, comes from a writer who
signed himself E. Richardson in
1897. He say the turkey was re
garded as a peacock by the Spani
ards who discovered it in Mexico,
and that the Jewish merchants who
retailed the jnew birds back in
Spain' called it by the Hebrew
Czech Protests

Plan to Disarm
PARIS. Nov. zl-tffV-Commu
nist Czechoslovakia insisted today
the British-French-American dis
armament plan would result in fa
"vicious circle without ending
the East-West deadlock over

Prague's chief delegate to the

Sekaninova - Carrtova, listed
Czechoslovakia's objections to the
proposal in a speech' to the 60-

committee is still awaiting the of
ficial Moscow reaction to be laid
down by Soviet Foreign Minister
Andrei Y. Vinshinsky, perhaps

As he was led from the court
room, Daugharty was asked what

could return to McNeil island fed
