GraYGoing 10 Europe
For Railway Survey
Covering Six Weeks
By William J. WheotIey

Veterans Administrator Carl r.
Gray is scheduled to make study
of current railroad operating con-
ditions and availability in Europe,
it was learned today. The survey
is to cover six weeks. He is to
leave Washington Monday night.
The proposed study is surround
ed with considerable secrecy. The
Departments of Defense and Army
denied that they are sending Gen.
Gray. However, earlier reports
were to the effect that he was to be
placed on active duty for time,
This, it was asserted, was aban-
doned because the fact of having
q military man in the area max
ing railway study, might give po-
tential enemies a source for propa-
ganda.
The Veterans Administrator is
q major general in the Army Re-
serve Corps in which he is direc-
tor general of the Military Rail-
way Service, a title said to have
been given to him recently. Gen.
Gray, a railway operating man
ager before becoming head OF the
Veterans Administration operated
the military railroads in Europe
during World War II and made
an enviable record for himself and
his corps, it was said.
However. it was pointed out
that since the end of the war there
has been considerable expansion
in the railway systems in the coun-
tries of Europe. His current in
spection, it was indicated, is to
permit him to get flrSt-hand
knowledge of conditions now pre-
vailing there, to be forearmed in
the event of an emergency which
might necessitate the setting up OF
another military railway operat-
ing service there.
It was recalled that Gen. Gray
began the task of organizing a
military railway service, consisting
of units sponsored by the Nations
major railroads, more than two
years before Pearl Harbor.
In connection with the current
study plan in Europe. there were
reports that as result of the cur
rent trip he may be assigned the
task of developing this group
again. The military authorities
would want their railway COM
munication plans in top shape for
the current national defense ex-
pansion, and might call Gen. Gray
to active duty.

alongside "Fr' Company. But that
was lucky because "F' Company
had hit a tough defense position.
IF e. Company had not come
up," Capt. Gross said, I'VE would
have been in trouble"
The fight had been short but
savage at this roadblock.
But before the attack could
start, we saw one of the Strangest
sights of the war. Out OF the
fame and smoke ahead of us came
a group of 80 to 40 Reds dragging
an anti-tank gun. Down the mid
die of the road they came head-on
toward the barricade to a point
not more than 100 feet away.
Reds Halt in Surprise.
Suddenly they saw the Marines
and the group halted in surprise.
But before they could recover Ma
rines leaped to the barricades and
poured a deadly fire into the Reds.
The concentrated fire blasted
the little group of Communists.
Those who were not killed craWled
into the doors of nearby buildings.
But then the tanks opened UP on
them with heavy machine-gun
fire.
Later we came back down the
street. The smoke cleared for a
moment and over a doorway
framed in fames-Was a poster
portrait of Joseph Stain, master
of the Kremlin, and Kim II Sung,
the Red dictator of North Korea,
who had hoped to rule all Korea.

Chairman Connally of the Sen

said today that Western Euro

most" to build up their armed
strength if they expect the United
States to help defend them against
Soviet aggression.
He told a news conference that
he believes the American people
are determined that "the free ma

the Communist menace in its
tracks"
The Texas Senator emphasized
that this is "co-operative prop

that they must get busy and ag-
gressively increase their armed

Regardless of what other ma

that this country has got to builc
up its own armed strength to the

to continue that program definite.

Senator Connally also expressed
support for State Department
policies calling for an early peace
treaty with Japan and for building
up the authority of the United
Nations General Assembly to act
in cases of aggression when the
Security Council might be stymiec
by Soviet veto.
He said he did not anticipate 9

For Mahoney Today

BALTIMORE, Sept. 26.-Re-
counts that George P. Mahoney
hopes will upset the official figures
and make him the Democratic
nominee for Governor started in
Anne Arundel, Garrett and Car
roll Counties today.
He has also asked for a Wico-
mico County recount of votes cast
in the September 18 primary
which he lost to Gov. Lane.
A shift of any two of the four
counties to the Mahor1ey column
would give him the nomination.
Representatives of both. Gov.
Lane and Mr.. Mahoney were on
hand in each of the counties to
watch the counting.
Gov. Lane won 81 convention
votes-seven more than needed
for nomination-to 68 for Mr.. Ma
honey in the primary.
The Governor won Garrett
County's four convention votes by
a margin of So popular votes;
Anne Arundel's seven by 416:
Wicomico's five by BIT, and Car
rolls five by a 475-vote margin.
Meanwhile, the party rift caused
by the free swinging vehement
primary contest between Gov.
Lane and Mr.. Mahoney showed
little signs of healing-and the
general election is exactly six
weeks away.
Articles by political commen-
tators were appearing with state
mentS that the Democratic rift was
enhancing Republican chances of
electing Theodore R. McKeldin
Governor in November, as well as
other COP candidates.
Baltimore newspapers said cur

battle are running from even
money to 8-to-5 on Mr.. McKeldin.

trict Commissioners Mr.. Word
established ten more acres of seri-
cea last year. This was planted
on land too steep for safe culti-
walton of row crops and from
which more than so per cent of
the topsoil had been lost through
erosion. Plans have been made to
fence this field along with his
other land in order to use it for
both pasture and hay. Some Of
Mr.. Words sericea has been over
planted with reseeding crimson
clover for winter pasture. He says
that this combination of sericea
and crimson clover furnishes so
much good pasture that he will
plant more of it.
Last fall Mr.. Word harvested
seed from about three acres OF his
sericea, receiving in all $50
pounds of cleaned and sacrificed
seed. From now on he expects
to get some early grazing, hay
crop, and a seed crop from the
sericea and that is not all. Mr..
Word has already found out that
serieea lespedeza will almost
make worn out land new within
a few years time.
