u. N. Plans ;
WaYProgram
To0ffer Reds

LAKE SUCCESS, Nov. 10 - R -
The United Nations mounted a
three-pronged diplomatic offensive
today, seeking to neutralize Com
munist China and to prevent the
Korean campaign from exploding
into World War III.
On the eve of the departure from
Peiping of Red delegation to the
Security Council, diplomats moved
swiftly to keep the war localized.
The basic strategy was to re-
assure Chinese Communist leaders
that U. N. forces had no designs
on their territory, would not inter
fere with China's supply of electric
power from North Korean dams
and would build a united, demo-
cratic, independent Korea which
would present no threat to China.
This was combined with clear
warning, however, that continued
Red Chinese intervention in Ko-
rea would lead to drastic action.
The U. MS strategy was applied
in these three directions:
/. Australias James Plimsoll, a
member of the seven-nation Kor-
can commission, flew to Korea to
be available, with other commits
sion members, in case Peiping
wanted to negotiate a border settle
ment.
2. The General Assembly's Coma
ton economic and social commit
tees, in joint session, pushed plan
for the post war rehabilitation and
relief of Korea.
8. Security Council members con-
tinued private discussions on i'm
plementing the main strategic line
first made public in a resolution
at Fridays meeting on what
attitude to take when the Chinese
Reds arrive.

PAST YEAR SHOWS
BIGGEST Business,
PAN AM IN ALASKA

Pan American World Always has
experienced its biggest business
from the standpoint of the num-
Der of passengers carried in Al
aska during the past year, accord
ing to John White, regional direc-
tor at Seattle who is in Juneau
for few days to confer with staff
members in the local Pan American
office.
The biggest increase White said, is
shown in the business developed by
the Alaska Coastal Airlines of Ju-
neau and the Ellis Airlines of
Ketchikan and credit is given them
for their excellent achievement in
this field in the past several months.
White said the company figures
show that approximately $4,000 pas
sengers were carried in Alaska dur
ing the past year. The largest per-
centage of travel has been between
Seattle and Alaska but an increase
has also been shown in inter-Al-
aska passenger travel.
Unusual for this time of the year,
the regional director pointed out,
is the fact that the large passenger
business carried out in the past sea-
son is continuing into the winter
months. Reservations for the next
several weeks show a marked in
crease over those of previous years
at this season.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10 = LAP =
Senator TAFT (R~Ohio) said today
that lack of public confidence in
President Truman's foreign policy
helped Republicans in last Tues
days Congressional elections.
Taft told more than 1875 reporters
at news conference that the
major problems of the next Con-
gress will be to decide how big a
military program is needed for the
country, where we will get the
money and how we shall prevent

Calling for a Congressional re-
view of proposed military aid to
Western Europe, the Ohio senator
said ne believes such aid must be
given but wants Congress to assess
the situation before it acts.
The senator, who classes himself
as available-but not a candidate
for the 1852 Republican Presiden-
tial nomination, returned from his
own victory at the polls amid signs
that some COP reorganization may
be in order.
He is expected to confer with
party leaders during brief stay
in the capital.

WOMAN N. D.|NEW foreign
NABBED, HELD AID PROGRAM
AS KIDNApER AN N0UNCED
Revision, Domestic Poll
eies May Be Urged by
President Truman

WASHINGTON. Nov. 13-tR-A
blueprint for a vast new American
foreign aid program, including &C.
onomic help to western Europe be-
yond the scheduled end of the Mar
shall Plan, was made public by
the Administration last night.
1t probably will form the basis
for President Truman's foreign &C.
onomic recommendations to the
new Congress next year.
The Chief Executive made public
global survey of economic pros
poets and American aid in the light
of the Communist threat and the
western rearmamert program. The
survey calls for far-reaching dew
elopments in American policy to
provide help running into billions
of dollars over the next few years
perhaps 100000, 1000 or more.
Prepared by Gray
Mr.. Truman released the report
prepared by former Secretary of the
Army Gordon Gray, as a document
deserving "the attention and study"
of the American people. But admin
istration officials said there is no
doubt that it's main recommended
tons will largely shape the Presi-
dents foreign economic proposal in
his State of the Union message to
Congress in January.
In the main. Gray proposed action
along three lines:
l. Foreign assistance-a vastly ex-
banded U. S. aid program carrying
billions not only for Europe but
also for under-developed areas
Africa, Asia and Latin America
and administered by single agencies
in Washington.
To Cost Billions
The amount of economic asSis-
lance they will need remains to be
figured out, but at one point Gray's
advisers tentatively estimated the
cost at 100000 to $4,000, OO0,-
600 year. Meanwhile, the U. S. in
cooperation with International bank
would also undertake a loan and
grant program for the underdev-
eloped areas totalling at least ST.
100,0OO,O0O year, far beyond any,
thing previously planned.
2. Domestic economic policies
drastic revision of American tariff,
shipping, agricultural and other in
ternal policies which Gray describ-
ed as conflicting with this coountry's
foreign economic policies aimed at
helping friendly nations produce and
sell more goods for dollars.
3. Conditions of aid-The Gray
report takes the line that the Uni
ted States, using aid agreements
and distribution as a lever, should
continue to insist on high perfor-
nance by other nations in carrying
their share of the load.

Saturday night when she reached
for $4,000 ransom cash and 80 hid
den FBI agents and police rushed
her in the darkness.
I'm only a go-between!" they said
she shouted as they hurtled into
her, thinking she was a man.

But in her yellow convertible only
5 few feet away they found her bed
ragged victim-Linda Stamm. The
little girl was groggy from dose
of sleeping medicine and chilled
from exposure to the 9-degree above
zero temperature, but otherwise I'M

Later, after they found two more
ransom notes and a 25-calibre pistol
in the woman's pockets, the FRI
said she admitted Turing the child
away Friday from the Stamm's ranch
estate in the wooded outskirts OF
Santa Fe.
DR.. Campbell, who has a four
year-old adopted son, Rufus, said
she was beset with debts and un-
paid bills and worried about her cid
erly parents, both injured IN an
auto crash last month.
Kidnapping Charge
She was formally chargely with
kidnapping last night and held un-
der $4,000 bond. If convicted, she
would face from five years in pri-
son to death in the electric chair

Linda's mother, 32-year-old Mrs.

the admitted kidnaper was the same
respected women's specialist who
had delivered her second son, Craig
Stamm, just two years ago.

leader scott Lucas of Illinois and
Republican leader Ken Wherry OF
Nebraska-al passed word through
Biffle that that they were dead

could be the beginning of serious
feud between the President ana

The President, however, was non
