Letter Says China Reds
Shot Down u. ). Plane
By the Assoeiofed Press

LONG BEACH, Calf, Dec. IA
The aircraft of two American
flyers held prisoner by the Chinese
Communists since October. 1948,
was shot down, missionary's let-
ter disclosed yesterday.
The letter was received by Mrs.
Ruby Smith, wife of one of the
airmen, from Kenneth Watson,
Bellingham, Wash, who wrote
that he was in Tsingtao when the
plane was shot down. Previous
reports said the plane was forced
down.
Aboard were Navy Chief Elec-
trician William c. Smith Of Long
Beach and Marine M/Sergt. Elmer
c. Bender of Cincinnati.
Mr.. Watson wrote that Chief
Smith and Sergt. Bender were well
treated by the Communists and
that he was writing missionary
friends in China to do what they
can towards obtaining the release
of the two men.
Their wives, Mrs. Smith here
and Mrs. Bender, now in Chicago,
have not heard directly from their
husbands since they were captured.
Mrs. Smith said recently she and
Mrs. Bender planned to stage a
"sitdown' in Washington until the
Government does something about
getting their husbands released.
Senator Knowland. Republican,
of California, visited Mrs. Smith
today and told newsmen that he
favors blockading Chinese Com
munist ports as a means OF apply
ing pressure for the release of all
Americans held by the Commu-
nists against their will.
Senator Knowland said he will
take the matter up with State De-
partment. The Senator recently
returned from trip to the Orient.
Mrs. Smith has two young sons
with her and Mrs. Bender has
daughter, aged 4.

CHICAGO, Feb. %. Burglars
blew out nearly so windows and
set fire to a downtown building
today in blasting a safe in the
Office of the John Marshall Law
School.
Police and firemen found the
outer doors of the safe blown from
their hinges. A bar had been used
to pry open the inner door. The
amount of money taken was not
determined Immediately.
The safe measured only four by
five feet but was embedded in a
masonry wall. Three months ago
burglars knocked the combina-
tion from the safe but were unable
to open the door. It contained
$4,000 then.
A single stream of water was
used to put out the fire. Firemen
estimated damage at $1,000 but

Right and Left Parties
Blast Finnish Cabinet
BY the Associated Press

HELSINKI, Finland, Feb. o.
Finland's cabinet. already under
a heavy Russian press and radio
attack, today was blasted in
Parliament both from the right
and left.
The conservative Agrarian Un-
ion struck at Premier Karl-Au-
gust Fagerholm's Social Demo
cratic cabinet in a demand foI
higher prices and lower taxes.
The Communist dominated
Popular Democrats based their at
tack on the charge that Mr..
Fagerholm's actions have caused
a deterioration in relations with
the Soviet Union.
The debate is expected to con-
tinue all day and most of the
night with a motion for a vote
of confidence probable tomorrow.
Although the Agrarians desire
the resignation of the Social
Democratic cabinet, it is doubtful
if they will join the Popular
Democrats to vote mo conf
dence."
If it should come to a govern
ment crisis, President Juho
Paasikivi probably would call for
q coalition cabinet based on rep
resentation of all leading polit-
ical factions.
Mr.. Fagerholm took Office last
July.
He was named after general
elections in which the Commun-
ist-dominated Popular Democrats
lost heavily in parliamentary
strength.
Current representation is Sc
Agarians, IS Social Democrats
and 80 Popular Democrats.
