i In Russia, the government sells
"onus to th people, Just as our
government does. Whatever Its
selling arguments are. they appear
to be effective. At any rate, a dis
patch from Moscow this morning
says: : -
"Because of the ' THOROUGH
NATURE of the bond selling cam
paigns eacn year, nearly every
worker and peasant owns some
eoviet state bonds."
The Soviet government PAYS NO
JHTEREST ON ITS BONDS. In-
stead. It numbers each bond and
every so often It puts all the num
bers In a hat and holds a drawing,
The holders of the lucky numbers
get prizes. , The smallest prize
awaraed amounts to 100 per cent
of the face value of the bond and
the biggest prize Is 100,000 rubles
on a bond of the face value of 200
rubles, or 50,000 per cent of the
lace value. ,
' The dlsoatch explains: -
' "Most important central and lo
cal newspapers print the list of
winning numbers a few days after
the format drawing."
( It adds: - -

That story is. understandable.
. Human beings love to gamble, and
ait aowa inrouga uisvory muuej
hungry governments have used lot-
....4 lh namKlfni HavtPIM
to take money .. away from their
neonle. Russia's communist govern'
ment Is simply following an old
established custom.
Much less understandable are the
actions of the communists In Ko
rea. With their loud speakers on
the front lines blaring statements
to the effect that a truce is just
around the corner and that the
shooting is Just about to stop, they
so on lighting- like wildcats.
In the 12 hours ending tills morn
ing, they are estimated by our side
to have fired 111.000 rounds of ar
tillery ami mortar, shells-into ur
lines. Their previous record, estab
lished last month, was a total of
108.000 rounds in 24 hours. Tne
fighting of the past few days is es
timated toave cost them a total
of morri than 4.000 casualties.
It Just doesn't, seem to make
sense. !-;;:..... ;.-.;... '.;--.'
. There are so many things about
Korea that don't maice sense, me
attitude of the South Koreans to

Radar Built
i WASHINGTON (A A radio-radar
beacon device. -smaller than two
matchboxes, will be manufactured
In this country for- fliers to wear
on their llfejacketa. .,
The miniature transmitter-recei
ver includes batteries, microphone
loudspeaker and aerial that extends
to 31 Inches. It Is designed to guide
rescuing planes to a survivor drift
ing. in tne sea and let mm communicate-
with them when they
come close enough.
U. S. rights to manufacture the
3-pound -device, called "Sarah,
have been acquired by Slmmonds
Aerocessories, Inc., Tarrytown,
N. Y. from Ultra Electric Ltd.,
London. The first sales have been
made to Grumman Aircraft, Beth-
page. N. Y.
Grumman plans to use the equip
ment fh Its own flight testing pro
gram. Sarah also has been demon
strated to the Air Force and the
Army Field Forces, and the Navy
nas made tests at its i-aiuxent,
Md., Air Center.' .
A flier adrift at sea, wearing1 a
Mae West life-Jacket to which
Sarah Is attached, merely pulls a
wire ring. Thereupon cover flies
off, the yellow, steel tape aerial
snaps open and the transmitter
starts sending messages for' as
much as S3 miles, and up to 60,000
I eel. Tne signals may continue lor
It hours.
In the searching airplane, a
three-Inch television screen re.
celves the Sarah signals, as green
pips or spikes pointing out tne di.
rection the plane must fly. -
When .the search plane passes
over the downed pilot, Baran's
signals disappear from the screen.
The man at sea then can speak to
the airplane pilot througn nis tiny
microphone, and can use it as a
loudspeaker to hear the pilot. "

for a stay of execution of Julius
and Ethel Rosenberg, the con
demned atom spies. -
Counsel for the Rosenbergs ex

at its regular Saturday closed con
ference. The husband and wife are to be

Norman E. Isaacs, the APME

Isaacs declared: "we have one

tion Is to convey information, we
are common carriers. And we are
given privileged rights in the bill

The founding fathers obviously

The newspaper, In a story sent
last night from Washington by Ned

supreme United Nations command-'

been issued . despite Increasing con

Syngman Rhee will be persuaded
to accept the anticipated truce
agreement, f
Russell added:
"The Instructions to Gen. Clark
were based on the premise that he
Is responsible for the security of
his forces and for observance of
the truce. Thus he is authorized
to take any measure he deems
necessary to carry out his respon
sibilities. , i
"It was believed his instructions
are broad enough to cover the pos
sibility of any South Korean at-;
tempt to fight on alone as well'
as the danger of riots and guerrilla
activities behind the truce Una
which might threaten Gen. Clark's
lines of communications. '
"It was believed the instructions
were, couched In broad, general
terms and left the details- c deal-:
