Abbitt BIames Truman,
Congress for Korea Crisis
By the Associated Press

CREWE. Va. July 15.-A Vir-
ginia member of Congress charged
today that the American down
fall" in Korea is the result of q
too little. too late" attitude BY
both the Administration and Con-
greSs.
Furthermore, Representative
Abbitt, Democrat, of Virginia, TOLD
approximately 5000 members OF
the Southside Electric Co-opera
tive at their 14th annual meeting
and picnic here, "the cold war is
over and we are virtually in state
of war"
The Fourth District Representa-
tive added that he was in accord
with President Truman's action
regarding the invasion of South
Korea. But he criticized the Gov
ernment for not granting arms tc
South Korean forces prior to the
present war.
Speaking several hours after
Mr.. Abbitt, Virginia's Gov. Battle

May Bar Reserve Promotions.
An Air Force spokesman said
definite decision has been reach
ed on the promotion policy change
for his branch, and that Air Force
commands viii be SO advised soon.
The old regulation, he said, is felt
to have posed serious morale
problem for officers who might
otherwise join. and he expressed
hope that the change would be re-
f1ected in an upswing in active
duty applications.
A spokesman added, however
that he did not believe the policy
change would not take in reserve
unit promotions which officers may
have obtained since their one
grade separation promotions.
Since Navy officers received no
separation promotions the morale
problem does not exist in the
Navy's drive for extended active
duty applications.
DR.. Kline, A, who was listed
as the first doctor to answer the
Army'S appeal for doctors, served
as a major during World War II,
and was awarded the Legion of
Merit for his service in the Philip
pines. Since his return to civilian
life in 1946, he has served with the
Veterans Administration. DR.. Kline
attended Central High School and
graduated from the George WASH

Doctor Shortages Seen.
Maj. Gen. r. w. Bliss, Army

has been able to furnish adequate
service on the basis of centralized
medical care despite a medical
personnel shortage which existed
before the Korean crisis.
"As result Of the expansion of
the Army" however, he added,
serious shortages exist or will
soon exist for younger physicians. /"
Gen. Bliss urged physicians
eligible for active duty to wire
or write him at the Army Depart

Churchill Sees West

They have a policy the aim OF

we cannot predict.
"They infiltrate in all coun-
tries with theix agents. Their ad-
herents have no loyalty to any
home. They care nothing for the
lands of their birth. They owe al
Ilegiance solely to Moscow.
| Communism is a religion witt
all its discipline and some of it
fervorr-but a religion utterly with
tout God and anti-God.
"The Communists pay lip serv'
ice to the doctrine of peace, but b.
peace they mean submission t.

"They preach the reduction o.

Pope Sees Frontiers
Too Rigid in Europe
by the Associated Press

VATICAN CITY, July 49,
Pope Plus XII said today that the
idea Of unifying Europe expresses
need ito break or at least to
loosen. both politically and eco
nomically, the stiffness of the old
frames of geographical frontiers. ("
The Pope addressed in French a
group of 200 jurists from all
over the world who gathered here
to study the possibility of unifying
civil law codes.
The pontiff pointed to the diff
ficulties of a complete unification
of civil law, "even for a restricted
number of states"
However, he urged the jurists
to keep three points in mind:
81. The most attentive and eff
ficient protection of those who
have the largest needs, namely
abandoned children and women;
Legislators should regulate their
conduct toward them as fathers
or mothers.
20. The juridical regime of those
compelled to move frequently or
even at regular intervals from one
country to another should be SIM
Iplified.
"3. Recognition and realization,
direct and indirect. of the natural
rights of man, which, as inherent
to human nature, are always close
to the common interest; even
more, these (rights) must be taken
as the essential elements of COM
mon good"

Greek Military Chief
Calls Balkan Moves
Only War Of Nerves
BY the Associated Press

ATHENS, GREECE, July Is
Field Marshal Alexander Papagos
said in a newspaper interview to-
DAY that Communist military
movements in the Balkans are
merely part of war of nerves.
The Greek commander of armed
forces, the country's greatest
modern military hero, said he does
not believe Russia is ready for
world war. His views were pub
lished in the Conservative news
paper. EmbroS.
Marshal Papagos said $4,000
Greek Communist guerillas are
scattered in Albania, Bulgaria and
other Soviet satellite states. But
he said a report of two weeks ago
that 5000 of these were massed
on the Bulgarian Greek border
were inaccurate.
THE Greek army is fully cap
able of destroying them If they
attempt new aggression" the
army chief declared.
The Greek army is in good
shape for local operations, but
would have to receive substantial
amounts of equipment to par
ticipate effectively in a world con-
flict. he said.
1t. Gen. James A. Van Fleet,
chief Of the American military
mission here since 1948, said re-
Gently that modern equipment,
including armored vehicles, artil-
lery and large number of light
and heavy machineguns, was on
the way to Greece. He is leaving
Monday for a new assignment as
commander of the United States
End Army at Fort Meade. Md.
Marshal Papagos said his in
formation does not support the
view that movements of Com
munist troops toward Yugoslavia S
borders are a danger to the Sc
curity Of Yugoslavia or Greece.
He said these movements were
on small scale and similar
movements had been noted every
year at about this time. He ac-
knowledged, however, that con-
siderable war material has been
delivered to Bulgaria recently.
Premier-Marshal Tito of Yugo-
slavia came in for another propa-
ganda attack from the Russians
yesterday. A Russian Language
broadcast from Moscow, heard in
Oslo, said Tito was "Yugoslavia's
Syngman Rhee," arlexponent of
American war plans in the Bal
kanS" and a paid traitor" Tito,
the broadcast charged, is playing
IN the Balkans the same role as

against Communist nations along
his borders.
The broadcast conceded with a
Soviet dispatch published I'M
Czechoslovakia reporting that AL
bsnia, in new note, charged
Yugoslavia with seven provoca-
tions on land and two in the
air" in June. The dispatch said
the note alleged the provocations
were aimed at starting a war"
A Yugoslav note Friday blamed
Bulgarians for four border incl
dents in which a Bulgarian soldier
was killed. Yugoslavia and her
Communist neighbors have been
