Beirut Sees Diifereni
Breed Of U.S. Marines
By JERRY BKXNKTT
NEA Staff Correspondent
QUANTIC'O MARINE RASE. Va.
'NKAI The Arabs on the beaches
of Beirut got their first look at
U.S. Marines 55 years ago. But
the ones they are seeing today are
a new breed ot fighting man.
Not that the leathernecks who
landed there in 1!03 to protect the
American Consulate against a
threatened Moslem uprising
weren t tough.
It's just that l!i53's Marines are
lougher and pack an arsenal of
infantry weapons as revolutionary
as the atomic age.
Marine censors have dropped a
complete blackout over descrip
tions of the arms actually carried
by the forces now m Lebanon. But
they explain that all Marines have
been trained in the newest wea
pons. They also report that Ma
rines have taken part in recent
maneuvers at an atomic proving
round
Marines of the Sixth Fleet are
known to be equipped with atomic
arms: probably, however, these
were left aboard ship when they
landed.
Among other new mobile weap
ons in which today's Marines are
being trained, there is "The
Thing."
That s the translation of its
Pipe Smokers
PIsn toes
Despite streamlined weapons
and the new mobile landing meth
od, however, there is as no less em
phasis on the tough, hand-to-hand
combat techniques for which thev
are so famous. Marines still gel
trenuous training in judo and
bayonet fighting. And the body
building exercises are Just . s
tough as ever.
If leathernecks actually have to
fight in the Middle East, Marine
lificials are confident that they
can operate as well in tne aeson
thev can in jungles or snow-
covered Asian mountains.
After all. Marines proved them
selves to be excellent desert fight
ers in 1805 when they fought the
Barbary pirates in Tripoli, the
famed opuration extolled in the
Marine hymn.
But one Marine officer is even
more emphatic about the leather
necks' present potential.
"Marines can handle themselves
anywhere," he declares.
I
upport no candidate unless he
demanded immediate withdrawal
of It. S. troops. The front also re-ipm,,,,.,,!
newed demands tor Chamouns
immediate resignation.
Informants close to
touhted he would agree to any
conditions. The iti-ycar-old army
commander has insisted he would
accept election only if ho strings
were attached. .
Some deputies said that opposi
tion members of Parliament arc
loyal to Shchab personally and
likely to vote for him despite the
National rront statement.
Prime Minister Sami Solh
threatened to resign unless the
elections were postponed until in
ternal security is re-estahhshed
His threat followed an attempt to
assassinate him in which eight
other persons wore killed.
Chamoun decided not to go
along with Solh alter talking with
It. S. Ambassador Robert McClm

man said.

undersecretary of state, was ex

The bombings obviously were in

in July 17 from Cyprus at the re-

Oil Company
Files Suit
1 SAN FRANCISCO (UPD ,-
suit has been filed by Standard
Oil Company of California to re
gain $400,000 in alleged kickbacks
to three tormer top executives.
. Defendants in the civil suit
filed in U.S. District Court Tues
day. included Howard R. Cuyler
San Francisco, former general
manager of wholesale sales: Au
gust P. Johnsen, Atherton, Calif.,
former president of a sales sub
sidiary: and Howard E. Gunnels,
Phoenix, former regional manager
of wholesale sales in Arizona and
New Mexico. "
Also named as a defendant in
the complaint was Hahh Enter
prises, a partnership including the
three men named and Horace
Steele, Phoenix, president and ma
jority stockholder of Texas Inde
pendent Oil Company.
The complaint charges that
hahh Enterprises received pay
ments from the Texas concern
computed on the basis of one-
fourth cent per gallon sold by
Standard to the Texas Company.
These payments were distributed
among the partners of Hahh, the
suit said.
The three former Standard ex
ecutives also were accused of con
spiring to defraud Standard by ob
taining "secret profits," but the
complaint said the exact amount
had not yet been determined.
Standard sought permission to
amend the complaint at a later
dale.
Standard said the alleged con
spiracy was discovered in April.
1958, and that the defendants have
refused to return amounts sought
by the company.
Cuyler. his attorney, and John
son's wife all declined comment
on the charges.
vhich weapons experts claim can
knock out any type of tank.
There's the Mechanical Mule, an
extremely premising and versatile
jeep-type four-wheeler capable of
transporting l.ono pounds of sup
plies and ammunition across rough
terrain and steep hills.
The Mechanical Mule is also de
signed to mount a lfili-mm recoil-
less rule. And Marine otlicers be
lieve it would prove especially use
ful for quick evacuation of wound
ed troops.
Another vehicle, called the
Mighty Mite, is designed to op
erate with assault forces. It's
light enough to be delivered by
helicopter to a battle area.
For the Lebanon operation, ine
Marines used boat landing cratt
because they were not under fire.
But leatherneck officials explain
that they arc developing a new,
speedier type of landing lactic.
Since the Korean war, emphasis
has been placed on landing troops
by helicopter. Under the new ver
tical assault system, Marines
armed with modern death-dealing
weapons can be flown as far as
iOO miles into enemy territory
along a battle line extending 50
miles.
Marines say this tactic boosts
the mobility of landing forces and
enables them to close in on their
objective quickly without hav ing to
battle their way through surround
ing enemy beach defenses.
So far the corps has not under
gone an over-all transition to the
vertical assault method, litis
means that until the complete
haneeover is made troops must
still be readv to prlorm the dan
gerous task of rushing ashore on
foot.

This was a very large opera

Most of those subpoenaed are
either bettors or in a position to

danger of prosecution unless evi

What the government is after,
he said, is to pin criminal indict
