Grafton of help for the Jewish
community of Jerusalem that had
been besieged and blockaded for
some time. However, after four
months of warfare, news dispatch

been surrendered by the Jews,

have abandoned thirty-two will
ages. Furthermore, 10000 Arabs
were reported to have left Pales-
tine. Towards the close of April,
the important Arab port of Jafta
surrendered to the Jews. Halfa
also fell under Jewish control.

Hoffman Says Reports
kisquoted Him on
Continuing China Aid
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

TOKYO, Dec. 1r.-Paul G. Hoff-
man said today he was mot accu-
rately quoted" in stories on his
Shanghai press conference regard
ing aid to China in case the Com
munists or a coalition government
take over.
The director of the Economic Co.
operation Administration said he
had received reports of the State
Departments disclaimer Tuesday
that he was speaking for it when
he is supposed to have aid might
continue under coalition govern
ment, including Communists.
Mr.. Hoffman told reporters that
his statement was on what we
would do in the event Tentsin and
other large cities fell to the Com
munists."
II said we would certainly deal
with any de facto government Zone
which rules in fact, although not
formally recognized) until We took
a. look-see.
In other words we would not stop
aid Immediately just because there
was change. I was asked what
would happen If the new govern
ment was Communist and replied
we would probably get out fast.
II was asked what about it If
there was a coalition government
and I replied it would depend upon
what kind of coalition. If liberal
elements and factions generally were
represented I said we would prob
ably continue aid to China while
we observed what was happening.
I'm other words, we are not going
to run out until we know what is |
the situation"
This Is substantially the same
thing he was quoted as saying In i
an Associated Press dispatch from
Shanghai Monday. He was quoted
as replying when asked If ECA aid

Reds Hold 9 Brifons,
.One Wounded, Who
::5trayed Over Border
by the Assoeictsd Press

< BERLIN, Dec. ia British
Army spokesman said today the
Russians seriously wounded a Brit
.ish soldier and captured him and
3 eight others when the party wan
.dered into the Soviet zone Wednes-
= day night.
i Earlier, the British had an
nounced that one soldier had been
killed. Correcting this, the spokes-
man said the soldier who was shot
inside the Russian zone was in
serious condition" The Russians
still hold all nine captives, the
spokesman added.
Capt. John Pugh. the British
spokesman, said the men were
hunting rabbits in the heavily wood
ed area near the zonal border and
strayed unwittingly into the Rus
sian zone.
British Minimize Incident.
= Although the incident occurred
Wednesday, news Of it did not leak
out until last night.
A British Army statement de-
scribed it today as a minor from
tier incident . Of q quite harm
less origin"
The shooting, however, empha-
sized for many Allied observers the
strained atmosphere now prevailing
between the Russians and the West
.ern powers.
The Russians have taken increas-
ingly severe measures in recent
months to seal of the green from
tier" across which thousands of
German refugees fed from Eastern
Germany. This illegal emigration
repeatedly included hundreds of So
Wet Army deserters.
Patrols Ordered to Shoot.
Russian Army patrols are known
to have orders to shoot trespassers
on sight.
The Army spokesman said there
apparently had been an accidental
crossing of the border and that he
expected no repercussions from the
incident. Negotiations for return of
the arrested men are now going on,
he said.
German police on the British side
of the frontier said the incident took
place at Duderstadt. near Goet-
tlngen. The Soviet, British and
American zonal frontiers all join
there, and the hilly, heavily-wooded
country makes 1t easy to get lost.

recommendation would be about
$340, ,000, 900 in 1949, the board noted
that the railroads had offered the
incorporating workers the same 10
cent increase given the operating
workers. 1t said this would have
cost the carriers s26O,OO0,o 900.
Diminishing Cost Seen.
The board estimated that the
$340 ,000, 900 cost of the recommends
tions in 1949 would diminish In fu-
ture years. The board figured 1t
this way:
The initial rate of cost will move
downward in 1850 due to modern
ization of railroad equipment.
The number of railroad employees
Is diminishing.
In contrast to industry as a whole,
the number of railroad workers has
steadily declined from 100000 in
1920 to less than 100000 now, the
board said.
1t added that these fewer rail en-
ployes now are handling practically
double the volume of traffic as sew
eral decades ago, showing increas-
ing efficiency of the railroads and
the workers.
Mr.. Truman set up the board two
months ago after negotiations be-
tween the incorporating brother
hoods and the railroads reached a
stalemate.
The cost Of the 10-cent increase
to the operating workers was esti-
mated by the carriers at SIS, ,665, ,00O
a year. This estimate, plus the de-
mands of the incorporating workers
has been cited by the railroads as
the reasons for new rail rate in
