North Koreans
Being Trained
For Nuclear War
Seoul -wn- The Commuaist
North Korean Army has no
nuclear weapons, but it is
training its soldiers for a nu
clear war.
And, says an unclassified
report of the 8th U. S. Army
in Korea, training by the
North Korean Army in con
ventional warfare has been
beefed up, making it a much
stronger force than that faced
by United Nations forces in
the Korean War.
The report, designed to in
form American soldiers in
Korea about the North Kore
an Army, said the latter in
structs its forces in both of
fensive and defensive nuclear
warfare, but that the empha
sis lies on defensive atomic
training.
High level U. S. Armv
sources here said U. S. intelli
gence reports indicate the
North Koreans do not have
any nuclear weapons despite
a claim to the contrary by a
South Korean official earlier
this ' year. That claim was
made by Lee Soo Young, a
former army colonel and cur
rently South Korean repre
sentative to the United Na
tions. These sources said North
Korea has "no nuclear capa
bility at present." But thev
said there is little doubt the
Soviet Union would provide
nuclear weapons of all types
in event hostilities were re
newed here.
Although emphasis is on
training for nuclear warfare,
the North Korean Army is not
neglecting training in conven
tional warfare.
The 8th Army report said
training in today's North Ko
rean Army "is based upon
Soviet and Communist Chi
nese tactical doctrines . . . fol
lowing Soviet doctrine, Ko
rean communists do not be
lieve that nuclear warfare has
diminished the decisive sig
nificance of the infantry arm,
so they have strengthened in
fantry firepower, mobility
and communications.
"This increase in firepower
has been the most important
improvement in the North
Korean army, which now is
stronger than it was before
the Korean war."
The report said the 350,-000-Man
North Korean army
is being trained by Russian
and ' Communist Chinese ad
visers and technicians.
It said the North Korean
army, "in spite of the fact
that (it) lacks certain ad
vanced skills and sophisti
cated weapons, should hos
tilities be resumed, (it) would
present a far more formidable
opponent on the battlefield
than did the ill-trained, under-
equipped North Korean sol
diers encountered by the U N.
forces in the fighting between
1950 and 1953."

Hllie Sol Estes Rated in Texas
As Wheeler-Dealer, Junior Grade
Editor's note: In another
of a series of dispatches on
the rise of Billie Sol Estes,
UPI National Reporter
Harry Ferguson explores
the troubles that now beset
his business empire.
By HARRY FERGUSON
Pecos, Tex.-UPIuWhen Tex-
ans want to express their ad
miration for a bold, spectacu
lar business man. thev sav:
'He's a wheeler dealer." Bil
lie Sol Estes, now under fed
eral indictment in connection
with the collapse of his $150
million business empire, was
wheeler dealer, junior
grade.
He never was rich in the
sense that such Texas tycoons
as H. L. Hunt and Clint Mur
chison are rich. Their annual
incomes probably exceed Es
tes' gross assets in his best
years. But he was a towering
man in west Texas and the
town of Pecos, population
15,000, is the little pond in
which he grew to be such a
big frog.
bstes arrived here 12 years
ago with one suitcase, a bat-
icrea Driel case and a ques
tion: "Where can 1 find
honest real estate dealer?" He
found one and started raising
cotton. He was 25 years old
then, and five years later he
had made his first million. He
is 37 years old today. Before
the roof fell in he controlled
or had an interest in 40 com
panies, had a fleet of Cadil
lacs (even the servants used
one) and .owned two private
airplanes. In 1953 the Junior
Chamber of Commerce voted
him one of the nation's 10
outstanding young men.
"I have been close to Billie
Sol for 10 years," said a Pe
cos businessman, "and I still
can't explain what makes him
tick."
Persuasive Salesman
Everybody is in agreement
that he is a high - pressure,
hypnotic salesman. This cor
respondent had a personal
demonstration of it Monday
when he rang the door bell
at Estes" $150,000 ranch
house. Mrs. Estes answered
the door, and went into an
other part of the house to
summon her husband.
Promptly there appeared a
short, stocky man wearing a
blue sports shirt and black
slacks bulging under what
could become a sizable
paunch. The eyes gleamed
alertly behind glasses as this
correspondent explained that
he had come to Pecos to generate times
the Estes side of the storyldren, four
and would like to have an in
terview.
He said he could make no
comment, and then launched
his sales talk:
I can see you are an in
telligent man. I know you are
going to do a good job on this
because I am sure you always
do a good job. I wish in my
heart I could help you. But all
I can do is wish you good luck
and thank you for coming to
our great state of Texas."
Corny But Effective
It was corn as high as an
elephant's eye, but delivered
with such fervor and surface
sincerity that this correspond
ent departed with an exagger
ated opinion of himself. It is
easy to understand how Estes
could persuade men to sign on
the dotted line, sometimes
without reading what they
were signing.
From his early youth, Estes'
reading centered on the col
lected works of Horatio Alger
Jr. and the Bible. But he did
more than read Alger. He be
came an Alger hero himself
at the age of 12 by going into
business. As he tells It, his
parents gave him a ewe lamb
for Christmas, and he sold
its wool for enough money to
buy another lamb. Then an
other until, when he was 15,
he had a flock of 100.
And then - and this was to
be the shape of things to come
-he diversified his interested
and invested some money in
pigs. By the time he was 18 he
is said to have been worth
$38,000 and adults were offer
ing to invest money In his
agricultural enterprises. Billie
Sol was off on a 20-year career
during which he would build
a pyramid worth $150 million.
Credits the Bible
Estes has said he owes all
his success to an application
of the teachings of the Bible
to business.
'There are two things Billie
Sol cm do real fast," said a
Pecos business man. "He can
quote the Bible and he can
whip a financial statement out
of His pocket with the speed
of lightning. Several months
ago he took a piece of paper
out of his pocket and asked
me: "Would you like to know
how much money I made last
month?"
Estes is a deacon and a lay
preacher in the Church of
Christ. It is an austere church
and Billie Sol carries its teach
ings to the point that he seg
regates the sexes in his big
swimming pool. Children are
welcome to use it but boys
and girls must swim at sep-
He has five chil
glrls and a boy
ranging down from 14 years,
but they are not allowed to
wear shorts.
He does not drink or' smoke
and before he retired behind
the closed doors of his ranch
house, he frequently startled
the residents of Pecos by leav
ing all the Cadillacs in the
carport and traveling to his
office on a bicycle. People
here say he is a sharp, ruthless
man in a business deal, that
he has driven small competi
tors out of business and will
sit up half the night figuring
how to cut a corner.
Helps Hundreds
But there are hundreds of
poor people in this vicinity
who have received loans of
$100 from him to buy gro-

over-riding fear of commu

said, "He certainly has time to

County Horticultural Agent
Clifford B. Cordy told the
county court yesterday
He requested two short
pieces of pipe and an installa
tion for a watering system.
Two money grants have
been received for the arbore
tum and Sunset magazine is
enthusiastic over the project,
he said. The magazine is con
sidering supplying labels for
the plantings, Cordy said.
County Judge Earl Miller
reminded him that the county
court and budget committee Is
considering putting in a build

area. County Commissioner
Chester Wendt asked if Cordy
would consider any other lo
cation. Cordy said the land
was already prepared.
"The area is adjoining the
building and next to the part
