ISway Warfare
X The spray warfare against the
K tree-destroying spruce budworm
j-ln Eastern Oregon in progress
Cfor the past, five years ended
-rlast week when the State Forestry
pepartment cdmpleted' treatment
f 292,000 acres of infected
wtimberlands.
JJ' John B. Woods Jr;, assistant
-.State Forester in charge of the
project, said more than 300,000
"gallons of DDT spray were used
2T,in the insect control work. He
-added that no airplane accidents
occurred on the latest spray job.
Unseasonable cold, followed by
JTflot weather, delayed completion
of the spray operations nearly a
IVnonth, Woods said.; Foresters
Jaid the budworm larvae can only
,be effectively sprayed with the
TDT at the time they crawl out
. on the limb tips to eat the new
Ueedles.
Tests Conducted
J'-Surveys are now being con
. ducted in the treated areas to
determine effectiveness of the
vipray. Test method used is to
count budworms on tree branches
-prior to spraying and count the
live budworms on the same trees
10 days following the DDT bath.
Ljn past years, approximately 98
j-per cent of the budworms were
"destroyed.
The Leo John Demen Aircraft
-Company, Salem, completed . the
"300,000 acre Johnson Creek unit
Sunday. The Combs (West-air of
Yakima, Wash., completed the
Dale unit Monday and the North-west

day. Trace Infestation
In addition to the mortality
checks to determine the "kill" of
"budworms the State Forestry De
partment is also running serial
and ground tets for locating in
. iestations by this insect. Woods
2aid that only small isolated areas
-have been discovered so far,, but
foresters were hopeful that the
days of the large epidemic in
.'festations are over.

Exchange jto;
About 3, Bays
' 'This exchange, Co. be ! known as
Operation Big Switch, will involve
prisoners wanting to return to their
homelands.
Communists have ! admitted
holding between 12,000 and 13.000
Allied prisoners, including fewer
than 3.000 Americans. I
The latest available figures show
the Allies hold about S4.000 North
Korean and Chinese prisoners who
want repatriation. This includes
about 7(500 North Koreans and
6,500 Chinese.
Lists Revised
During the last week of negotia
tions, the Allies ana Communists
exchanged revised prisoner lists
and the new figure undoubtedly
will vary from the original ones
because of recent capture of pris
oners and also deaths! in prison
camps.
The Allies also hld about 4,500
Chinese captives who refuse re
patriation and whose fate will be!
decided by a special agreement!
reached in June. 1 j
The big question on the eve of a
truce was what would be the next
move by President Rhee, who de
layed and nearly wrecked the truce
talks in June when he release;
27JXX) anti-Red Korean prisoners!
from Allied camps.
Rhee ia Conference
Rhee was in conference Sunday
with his foreign minister. Pyun:
Yung Tai, and Prime Minister Paik
Too Chin.
Pyun stressed that South Korea
had not accepted -an armistice.!
'We have only agreed not to ob
struct it for a certain period on
condition."
Advised that the armistice was
expected to be signed Monday,!
Pyun saic, "we have nothing to do
with the armistice. It is merely a
military arrangement in which we
have no room."
Another Foreign . Office spokes
man said, "as the situation stands,!
we can not but wait and hope for
poliical conference will find a
fruitful way to bring Korean unifi
cation.
Special Envoy
President Eisenhower through a!
special envoy has tried in the past
month to bring Rhee in accord
with an armistice. The United
States has promised Korea eco
nomic and military aid and a se
curity pact subject to congression
al approval. i
The United States also promised
to seek an end to the political con
ference if it appeared that the Reds
were stalling.
Whatever understandings were
reached beyond these points have
been clouded in gusts of claims
and counterclaims. But Eisenhow
er's envoy, Asst. Secretary of State
Walter S. , Robertson, has insisted
that be has Rhee's promise in wri
ing not to interfere with a truce.
Rhee has remained firm on his
goal of a unified Korea. 1
Ike Cancels Plans i
(President Eisenhower, visiting
at the Quantico, Va., marine base,
cancelled his plans to return to
Washington Saturday night, U. ST
time.
When a newsman asked Presi
dential Secretary James C. Hag
erty whether this meant "every
thing' is off so far as immediate
signing of the truce is concerned,
Hagerty replied:
"You would be completely
wrong if you took that interpreta
tion." The shooting would stop, 12 hours
after the truce was signed. But
the Communists, ignoring the ap
parent nearness of the ceasefire
launched attacks on the Central
and Western Fronts Saturday night
and Sunday.
It was another of the Red Thrusts
which have been construed in Al
lied ranks as. a Communist effort
not only to gain vantage points but
also to make propaganda hay.
The Reds would like the Com
munist world to believe their troops
are winning victories over the Al
lies who are seeking peace,
live and Let Live
Before the latest Red attack.
Associated Press correspondent
John Randolph on the Central
Front said he had detected a
cautious live and let live feeling
among troops not anxious to be
the last names on a casualty list.
Newsmen not usually assigned
to the Munsan truce camp were
pouring in, some of them by plane
from Tokyo. Communications fa
culties to speed the word of the
signing were being improved, and
the military censor staff -was ex
panded from two to four officers.

Nation's TouT
Waterfronts
WASHINGTON 0f Sen, Tobef ,
noted crime fighter, fired a posthu
mous shot Saturday in the form of
Senate subcommittee report declar
ing the nation's waterfronts are
plagued by an ugly mixture of cor
ruption and Communism. ,
For many years the waterfronts,
on the East, West and Gulf coasts,
have remained "lawless frontiers",
the report said. It called the New
York docks the "foulest- of them
all. i -
: The report was made by a Sen
ate commerce subcommittee bead
ed by Tobey, New Hampshire. Re
publican. In a tragic twist Tobey
died of t blood clot Friday night
after the document was released
to newsmen for .publication Satur
day night, !.
The subcommittee applauded cur
rent state and federal efforts to
clean up the New York-New Jersey
waterfront but said few lasting re
sults can be expected unless Jo-
i seph P, Ryan is removed as presi
dent of the International Longshore
men's Association.
Ryan.: president of the I LA
since 1927, was pictured , as sur
rounded by a hand-picked "coterie
of thugs and goons", and the sub
committee said that for many
years he has been identified "with
most of the ills that afflict the
New York waterfront."
Ryan is under indictment on a
charge of misuse of some $11,000
in union funds, and the American
Federation of Labor, parent body
of the ILA, has directed it to clean
house or get out
Friday night the ILA suspended
Anthony Anastasia, Brooklyn docks
leader, and said he would be
charged with misconduct.
The subcommittee said a prelim
inary survey of major West Coast
ports indicates the problems con
fronting labor and management in
the maritime industries there "dif
fer substantially from those en
countered elsewhere."
"As "a broad generalization, it
added, "the West Coast is domin
ated by a struggle for power be
tween Communist-inclined leader
ship and non-Communist elements.
"This struggle for power has been
so intense that other forms of
corruption, such as graft and petty
racketeering, have tended to fade
into obscurity."
The subcommittee said it plans
further field investigations and
hearings on the West Coast.
Senate Group
Restores Part
Of Aid Slash
WASHINGTON Gffl President
Eisenhower won a partial victory
in his battle for foreign aid funds
Saturday night when the Senate
Appropriations Committee restored
more than half a billion dollars
that had been cut out by the House.
All told the . House had slashed
$1,010,000,000 from the $5,138,000
000 the President requested.
The Senate pursestring group re
stored $123,975,811 of new funds
and $424,654,212 of old funds. This
would allow spending of $548,630,
023 more than the House voted, if
the Senate committee's decision
should finally be upheld by Senate
and House.
The big bill will be brought up
in the Senate early next week and
after passage there then must go
baCk to the House for considera
tion of Senate changes.
Usually a Senate-House confer
ence committee has the final say,
subject to later approval by both
toin of' Senate changes.
Sen. Ferguson (R-Mich), acting
chairman, confirmed that the Ap
propriations Committee defeated
on a 7-7 tie vote an effor of Sen.
McCarthy (R-Wis) to penalize na
tions getting aid if they traded
with Red China or other Soviet
controlled areas in Asia.
Ferguson said McCarthy asked
ttv. group to vote that "it is the
sense of the committee" that na
tions engaging in such trade shall
have sums equal to the transac
tions deducted from their U. S
aid.
McCarthy earlier told reporters
that he had been defeated on a!
tie vote but would offer his pro
posals later on the Senate floor.

Casualties Paid
For Truce,
General Notes
WESTERN FRONT, Korea (JP)
-The thousands of UJN. men who
have died, been taken prisoner,
or wounded, are the men who
"paid the'highest price in bring
ing about this cease-fire," Maj.
Gen. Randolph McCall Tate, com
manding general of the lit Ma
rine Division said Sunday.
General Tate,-told that a truce
agreement had been reached and
would be signed Monday, said:
"We are deeply thankful that
the fighting and bloodshed which
accompanies it is coming to an
end. All of us in the 1st Marine
Division are earnestly hoping that
this cease-fire will be permanent,
not only in Korea but through
out the world.
"At the same time we are not
forgetting the more than 29,000
Marines who have died, or are
missing in action, or who have
been wounded while fighting with
the United Nations forces out
here.
''They paid the highest price
in bringing about this cease fire.
Let us hope that their sacrifices
have not been in vain."

By JIMMY WARD
JacksB DaUy News Staff Writer
VAUGHAN, Miss (JB Mrs. Cas
ey Jones was tired and weary
hearin speakers praise her ol
man.
She told one orator, "Sit down
deary, everybody's done said all
they can."
Like her fire-balling husband who
liked to be on time, Mrs. Casey
Jones tugged at the coat-tails of
long-winded speakers here Friday
and reminded them "it's supper
time." The spry, 80-year-old lady was
impatient as more than 3,000 per
sons assembled at the spot where
her railroadin' husband, the legend
ary Casey, drove an Illinois Cen
tral passenger train through into
the rear end of a freight.
On the spot where the engineer
died "with his hand on the throttle"
a marker was unveiled commemor
ating the accident famed in ballad
and song.
Mrs. Jones, the honored guest,
heard a speaker say that Casey
had been reprimanded nine times
for speed violations during his 10
years with Illinois Central.
Impatiently she listened as speak
er after speaker eulogized her hus
band who died more than a half
century ago.
.Finally she struck one speaker
across the seat of the pants with
a bouquet of roses she was hold
ing. "Sit down, deary, she com
manded, "It's suppertime."
It was Mrs. Jones first visit to
the spot where her husband met his
death.
On hand to separate legend from
fact was Sim Webb, 79-year-old
Negro fireman who was with Casey
on the last ride. '
Webb said when they rounded
the bend north of here they saw,
the freight on the track.

between now and the final sign

It is necessary to give com
manders wide latitude along the
front because of the different
action renditions in different
f sectors. f j
In the last 24 hours the U. S.
Marines on the Western! Front
and the U. S. Third Division on
the Central Front, as well as sev
eral ROK divisions, have been in
heavy actions with the Chinese.
Other divisions have had little
or no contact of any kind.)

. Although details were jnot re
leased, it is understood the orders
will allow division commanders
to cancel Allied attacks, Icombat
patrols, prisoner raids anS heavy

For safety's sake, reconnais

probably have to be continued in

The orders were a humane ef
fort to allow front line command
ers to use their best judgement
in the delicate interlude between
