This Changing World
Reds Took Advantage of Our Policy
Of Meager Military Aid to South Korea

prise was complete. Nobody from
Seoul to Washington had the
slightest inkling of the impending
attack. 1t is true that soap in
Tokyo and our intelligence serv-
ice in Washington had been
sounding a warning that we may
be confronted with a sudden at
tack in that area for the last II
months. But the preparation for
the last weeks aggression were so
well concealed behind the screen
of secrecy which exists in every
country behind the Iron Curtain
that even our ranking officer in
Seoul, who was closer than any
body to the scene of operation,
knew nothing about it. He was
on business in Tokyo when the
attack occurred. Everybody here
expected the Soviets to strike
against Formosa. The intelli-
gence services in Washington were
certain that this would happen
between the 18th of June and
the first of July.
The perfect secrecy which was
shown in this aggression is wor-
rying our military leaders. There
is no saying now where the Rus
slams may decide to strike next,
while the Korean war is in prog
resS.
Engineered From Moscow.
Although in certain Official
quarters there still is a good deal
of wishful thinking about Russia's
not being directly involved in the
latest aggression, there is little
doubt in the minds of our top
men that the attack was
from Moscow in all
its details and the date was set
by the Red high command which
controls the Korean army.
The policies of our Govern
ment are responsible to a great
extent for the present tragedy.
While Gen. Macarthur was send
ing out warnings that the Asiatic
mainland might become easily q
tinderbox and insisting that we
should literally supply Korea,
Formosa and other sensitive
areas in the Far East which were
not under the Communist control
with war materials and military
advisers. the views in Washing
ton were that Communist aggres-
sion could be contained by the
improvement of the standards of
living of the Asiatics. We sent
food, consumers goods and in
dustrial equipment instead of
tanks, planes and other vital de-
fenSe equipment.
The Sunday appeal of Presi-
dent Rhea of South Korea to
Washington, asking for planes and
artillery, is compared with a SINH
lar appeal from the wartime
Premier of France, Paul Reynaud.
who cabled in May, 1949, to Presi-
dent Roosevelt asking that
"swarms of planes" be sent to
France to resist the Nazi aggres-
sion.
The Rhea appeal was, however,
honored by Washington and Gen.
Macarthur was ordered to ship
Immediately the much needed war
materials across the Shimoneski
Straits. The trouble is that the
South Koreans do not have a
sufficient number of pilots to
handle the modern American
planes and it will take sometime
before the crews for American
tanks can be trained. Time is an
essential element in war. The
Well-trained North Koreans are
not likely to give their foes any
breathing spell. They are moving
with relentless speed against a
territory where there is not much
maneuvering space. Too little
may arrive too late.

Debt and Foreign Aid
HighIight Primaries

BISMARCK, N. OAK, June 90
The National debt and foreign aid

election.
Both Republicans and Demo-
crats will nominate one Senator,
two House members and a full
slate of State officer candidates
Senator Milton Young, a Repub-

Thoresen of Grand Forks. Mr.,
Thoresen is former lieutenant
governor who has attacked Sena-
tor Young's voting record on in
ternational issues, charging the in
cumbent favored "wasteful money
measures" including the Marshall
plan for aid to Europe.
Senator Young contends he
voted for the aid plan because il
was needed to save Europe from
communism. The Senator voted
against continuation of the Mar
shall plan this year.
Gov. Fred G. Aandahl seeks the
Republican nomination for Con-
gress in a three-way fight with
Representative Usher Burdick and

about the body. She also explain

months.
Davis countered with the charge
that his wife was unfaithful to
him, to the extent that he became
so disguised that he decided to
sleep elsewhere. He denied being
the father of her expectant child.
He further charged that broth
er of Gabriel, who is a roomer

her condition. He explained that
when he arrived at the home, his
wife jumped on him, struck him
several times, and that he was

connection with assault. The first
incident involved he and his wife.
He was arrested and bonded out.
Shortly after returning home, an
other argument ensued - this

the Gabriel brothers were on the
scene. An apparent free-for-all
battle followed. with the two
Davis brothers on one side, and
the two Gabriel brothers and Mrs.

The case was one of the most

brother, whom police said got

it is the action of White so-called
