Morse Criticizes
Eight Delegates
'Defeats Purpose
Of Primary Vote'
Senator Wayne Morse Monday
Joined the list of Elsenhower
backers criticizing the "eight del
egates." The eight are candidates
- for delegate to the Republican
, national convention, who filed by
-J petition, thus avoiding pledging
' themselves to vote In Chicago for
the choice the people of Oregon
" make next Friday.
Morse said:
- "THE ELECTION tactics of
J eight reactionary Republican can
t dldates for delegate to the Repub
' lican convention are shocking.
J These eight candidates have
i filed by petition so that they will
J not be bound by the will of the
i majority of the Republican voters
' as expressed at the polls next Fri
! day.
j "The clear spirit and intent of
j the Oregon primary law of 191S
j Is that an Oregon delegation at a
' national convention should stand
j together in support of the choice
j of the people. These eight reac-
tionaries seek to split the Oregon
i delegation and destroy its effect-
! iveness at the Chicago convention.
They hide behind a legal techni-
4 cality to alibi their tactics.
"A VOTE against them is a vote
for a united and effective Oregon
delegation at the Republican con
vention. A vote against them is a
vote for progress in the Repub
lican party.
The eight are Lowell Paget,
Irene Gerlinger, Robert Bennett,
Phil Metschan, Irving Rand, and
John R. Latourette, Jr., running
"at large," Ernest G. Swigert run
ning in the Third Congressional
District, and U. S. Balentine, run
ning in the Second Congressional
District. Neither Swigert nor Bal
entine will be on the Lane County
ballot.

SEOUL, Korea (AP) Brig. Gen. Charles F. Colson was
removed Tuesday as commandant of Koje Island three days
after he made a sharply criticized deal with Red prisoners
of war for the release of his predecessor,
The new shakeup in the Koje Command came less than
12 hours after it became known the Joint Chiefs of Staff
Social Security
Boost Proposed
WASHINGTON (U.PJ Fast
action is promised on a bill to
raise social security payments.
Sponsors said they are sure It can
be made law at this session of
Congress.
The measure was introduced
Monday by Chairman Robert L.
Doughton (D-NC) of the House
Ways and Means Committee.
Doughton called It non-controversial
and said Congress "can
and should" enact it before ad
journment. ABOUT 4,500,000 persons al
ready retired and drawing old age
and survivors benefits would get
extra payments of at least $5 per
month. Some 60,000,000 insured
persons hoping to retire in the
future would get increases of not
more than $5 per month.
Doughton emphasized that the
increases would cost the taxpay?
ers nothing. He said also they can
be financed without Increasing
the present 1.5 per cent contribu
tions made by employer and em
ploye. The Ways and Means Com
mittee probably will meet on the
bill in closed session late this
week or early next week.
The Doughton bill would:
Raise benefits for prac
tically all retired persons now on
the rolls by $5 a month or 12 Vi
per cent, whichever is larger.
Increase the present "bene
fit formula," to give a maximum
extra payment of $5 per month to
those who retire in the future.
Increase proportionately the
benefits for wives, widows, chil
dren, and other categories of
beneficiaries.
Raise from $20 to $25 the
minimum benefit for a retired
person and from $150 to $168.75
the maximum for a family.
Raise from $50 to $70 per
month the sum a retired person
may earn from a part-time job
without jeopardizing his social
security payments.
Give men in military serv
ice since June 27, 1950, credit for
earnings of $160 per month.
NAM Urges
'Free Market'
WASHINGTON OJ.R) The
National Assn. of Manufacturers
told Congress Tuesday that con
trols hamper production without
relieving inflation, and ca'led for
an end to wage-price curbs.
NAM President William J.
Grede in testimony prepared for
the House Banking Committee,
urged a return to a "free market."
He said the lawmakers should let
the defense Production Act expire
as scheduled on June 30.
The NAM called for legislation
to prevent the government from
either recommending wage terms
or seizing industries as a means 1
of settling labor disputes. Grede
also said legislation is needed to
stop the government from taking!
labor's side and opposing man
agement in disputes.

demanded immediate and full
clarifcation of circumstances
leading to:
1. Brig. Gen. Francis T. Dodd's
capture by his Koje prisoners, and
2. Colson's promised concessions
to Communist POW leaders which
won Dodd's release Saturday
night.
Gen. Mark Clark, who became
Far Eastern Commander Monday,
was Instructed to send his report
to the Pentagon "by the fastest
means possible."
GEN. JAMES A. VAN Fleet
named Brig. Gen. Haydon L.
Boatner, veteran front line infan
try commander from New Orleans,
to take over the turbulent 80,000
man prisoner camp.
Boatner, third general to hold
the post within a week, arrived at
Koje a few hours after his ap
pointment. He speaks Chinese and
is an expert on Chinese affairs.
COLSON WAS reassigned to his
former job as chief of staff of the
First Corps in Korea.
Dodd, commandant of the island
when Red prisoners captured him
Wednesday, was reassigned to
U.S. Eighth Army headquarters.
His job was not announced.
On Koje, flame-throwing Amer
erican tanks and combat infantry
men stood guard outside barbed
wire compounds, over some of
which captured Chinese and North
Koreans flew the Red flag.
U.S. DEFENSE officials in Wash
ington took exception to the word
ing of Colson's agreement with
the Red POWs.
The Defense Department Issued
a statement Monday night saying
the wording gave several wrong
impressions.
It singles out these phrases:
"Many prisoners of war have been
killed and wounded by U.N. forc
es; prisoners will receive humane
treatment in the future," and there
will be "no more forcible screen
ing or any rearming of prisoners
of war."
THE REDS had demanded these
guarantees, and many others that
Colson did not promise.
The Pentagon pointed out that
prisoners were killed only in "in
cidents at PW camps brought on
by rioting of the prisoners."
Ninety POWs and one American
soldier were killed in two mass
riots on Koje in February and
March.
The Defense Department said
prisoners of the United Nations
always have been "treated in ac
cordance with- the humanitarian
principles of the Geneva conven
tion and the accepted practices of
civilized nations."

West Virginia Votes
In Republican Test
WASHINGTON (U.B Sen.
Robert A. Taft banked on the
West Virginia primary Tuesday to
lengthen his lead in the Republi
can delegate race and offset a mi
nor loss In Monday's contests.
Supporters of Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower, Taft's chief rival for
the GOP presidential nomination,
hoped to salvage some of the 16
national convention delegates to
be named in West Virginia. But
Taft was assured of five before
the polls opened because the Eis
enhower organization failed , to;
enter a complete slate of dele
gates, j
While the West Virginia dele-j
gate contest was between Taft:
and Eisenhower, Taft was match- j
ed in the presidential preference
primary against former Gov. Har- j
old E. Stassen of Minnesota. Eis
enhower was not entered for thlsj
"popularity contest" vote, which
does not bind the delegates, andi
"write-in" votes were not;
counted, j
Eisenhower won 10 delegates
and Taft won from six to eight in
state Republican conventions
Monday in Rhode Island and Wy
oming. The Eisenhower forces smoth
ered an attempt to elect a "har
mony" slate divided between Taft
and Elsenhower. They succeeded
in naming Eisenhower backers to
all eight of the state's delegate
posts.
For Taft, this defeat was offset
in part In Wyoming where six of
the 12 delegates elected openly
favored Taft. Two were listed for
Eisenhower and four were un
committed. The Taft camp claimed
at least two and "probably" all
four of the uncommitteed dele
gates, without challenge from the
Eisenhower backers.
