WASHINGTON (P) Mos- cow is using what it describes as ' testimony of American war prisoners to reply to U.S. charges ol Communist atrocities in Korea. One such prisoner was quoted In a broadcast recorded here as saying that he was better off In a North Korean camp than he was when unemployed in New York. A long scries of such state ments, complete with names and addresses, has been beamed to the United States and other western countries since Col. James M. Hanlcy of the Eighth Army made his estimate that about 5500 American prisoners have been slain by the North Koreans and the Chinese. In an English language broad cast reported Wednesday by U.S. government monitors, one Amer ican prisoner was quoted; "I am treated courteously and live In good conditions, get plenty to eat, and a daily supply of tobac co. When I was captured, my uni form was in shreds. Here in the camp, I was provided with new clothes. I now understand a good many things I did not understand: that the Koreans arc humane and noble-hearted people." The name and address of this prisoner and others were deleted Irom the record made public hero by the government in accordance with a policy of protecting fam ilies and friends in this country. 4 L (Schedules Daily to Portland from Eugene So convenlentl Choice of 21 schedules daily each way.

'Man-lo-Man Agreements' Available lo Young Drivers Just in case son or daughter needs an added reminder ol the responsibility of driving a car, an auto industry group has begun distribution of "Man-to-Man" forms. The Man-to-Man Agreement form, when filled out and signed, is a pledge by son or daughter to use all possible cau tion while operating the family car by observing eight rules. Briefly the rules are: to drive as carefully as dad does, to refuse to allow anyone who has been drinking to drive, to re frain Irom showing off, to observe all speed limits and under no conditions to drive over 50, to slow down and look both ways at an intersection, to refrain from racing, to stop when sleepy, and to obey all traffic signs and regulations. The blanks arc issued to insurance men and dealers by the Inter-Industry Committee's highway safety committee, repre senting auto makers, new and used car dealers and tire manufacturers. They point out that drivers under 25 cause live times as many fatal accidents as drivers in the 45-60 age group nationally, and that insurance costs more when a person under 25 is allowed to drive the car.

Through her attorney, the honcy-blondo starlet announced she wasn't in such a hurry to tile for divorce now that her bridegroom of 53 days has beaten her to the punch. Tone, wealthy, cultured and angry, got his complaint in the court records Tuesday morning, few hours after ha and Bar bara battled and she stomped out of their hillside love-nest. Extreme Cruelty' Tono charges Barbara with "extreme mental cruelty" and said she destroyed "the legitimate alms of matrimony." Ho refused to elaborate on the charge, but his attorney, Henry Hcrzbrun, said the marriage blow up in nn prgument over Bar barn's plans to make a picture with actor Tom Neal, who beat up Tone in a battle for her af fections last September.

'Discussion' Follows Herzbrun said that led to "discussion" that ended the mar riage. Barbara at first tried to get her suit in court Tuesday but ran into a lew legal complications. "Wo have to check with Tone's attorney regarding a set tlement," her lawyer, Robert Feder, explained. "That won't be very much. Merely court costs, attorneys' lees and obligations since they were married, includ ing -furniture. Then we'll lile for divorce and maybe cross-file at the same time."

Birds Scurry To Flee Axe DF.F.RHORN Tho turkey has a reputation for having little sense. But a flock at the Bob Marquardt larm recently tied up traffic on the McKenzie Highway In a last-minute bid lor freedom. With Thanksgiving a matter of hours away, several hundred of tho birds, who don't regard Thanksgiving as a festive holi day, took off through a wire fence. When they came to the highway, they sat "down. Cars, log trucks and school buses ground to a halt. Hut tho birds just sat there. It took the owners, employes, and neighbors half an hour to cajole them into sitting in a nice drainage ditch so the cars could move. When the escape plot was dis covered, several hundred of the birds were lined up behind the hole in the fence, ready to risk death on the highway In a bid for a reprieve from the dinner table. GREYHOUND I FULL TO BURSTIN'? I FEEL AT EASE ( I "pASS THE WRIGLSYS I SPEARMINT, PLEASE Little Porkers Grow Faster On Synthetics ST. PAUL, Minn. (J Ameri ca's little pigs may be hastened to market with a new synthetic milk and summoned to meals with phonograph records of sow's grunts. Herbert G. Luther, rcsearcn scientist with Chas. Pfizer & Co., Brooklyn, N.Y., said that piglets fed the new concoction weigncd 10 to 35 pounds more than normally-suckled ones in an eight- week period. He spoke at the animal nutrition symposium at the University of Minnesota farm Tuesday night. Called Terralao Trade named Terralac, the syn thetic contains terramycin, an an tibiotic that stimulates growth, dry skim milk, lard to supply lats, fish oils and tiny amounts of vita mins and minerals. Except for the fish oil, it tastes like heavy milk. Luther reported. It looks like pie crust mix. More piglets can be produced with it, Luther said, promising more and maybe cheaper pork chops and bacon. Tests Successful lie said successful tests have been run on 500 pigs in a Brook lyn laboratory and 3000 more on large farms. The cost is set at 35 to 40 cents a pound, with the ani mals using 12 pounds apiece before weaning. Normally sleepy critters, pigs are usually awakened by the sow's grunting. Luther put the grunts on records which were played every hour on the hour at feeding time. bItsTy-i v4SsL Vrfffidw PIJ 5 y s V 'ifl iS? $$jm A r 1 rif we can showaDorft worry.) I Boy, I hope so!
