' testimony of American war
prisoners to reply to U.S. charges
ol Communist atrocities in Korea.

In a broadcast recorded here as

when unemployed in New York.
A long scries of such state
ments, complete with names and

American prisoners have been
slain by the North Koreans and
the Chinese.

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

by the government in accordance
with a policy of protecting fam
ilies and friends in this country.

'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.

HOLLYWOOD (U.R) Bar
bara Pnyton scurried into hiding
Wednesday with the statement
she is through with Franchot
Tono forever Just as soon as
ho "pays a few bills" here and
there.
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.

the fight started when he told

of her making a movie with Neal
"She told me that she was go
ing to do it whether I liked it
or not," Tone told the attorney.
'Discussion' Follows
Herzbrun said that led to
"discussion" that ended the mar

suit in court Tuesday but ran
into a lew legal complications.
"Wo have to check with
Tone's attorney regarding a set

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.

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.
