Men in War

SAN FRANCISCO, July 11-R-
Along the Pacific Coast today aid
was being mustered for Americans
fighting in Korea.
And for the first time since
fighting stopped in World War III,

APP MAN Tells
OF 7
Slain YANkS
Bv WILLIAM r. MOORE

NEAR THE FRONT IN KOREA,
July 11IREI saw two dead
American soldiers Monday. Their
hands we're tied behind them. They
had been shot through the head.
The two soldiers lay just off a
main road which carried the vital,
frantic traffic supplying front line
fighters. They had been there since
Monday morning. I was told later
by Infantry officers at rear COM
mand posts.
These officers said three Ameri-
cans had been tied and shot in the
head but saw only the two bodies.
yesterday, 1t. D. c. Gates, join
erville, Tex, reported seven Ameri-
can soldiers, their hands tied be-
hind, had been shot to death by
North Koreans. There was no indi-
cation whether the three reported
today were some of those, or addi-
tional atrocities).
I found no one who Witnessed
these slayings. Based on what was
known of the fighting at this point
early Monday, the belief was held
generally that the soldiers, riding
in jeep in the morning mist, sud-
denly found themselves only 20
yards or so from North Korean
tank. With the tank guns raised
upon them. they jumped out and
surrendered.
Their bodies showed what hap
pened afterward.
One of the green clad corpses lay
Iace downward, the other on its side.
Cloth bands about three inches
wide, like the bandages each Ameri-
can soldier carries in his first aid
kit, were tied SO tightly around the
wrists of each that the hands
showed .purplish brown, the arms
above the thongs much lighter.

STORY Is TOLD BY
ONE OF SURVIVORS

NEW YORK, July l1@R-How
battle-weary survivors of the Ameri-
can Lost Battalion" in South Ko-
rea fought against overwhelming
odds was described today in dis
patch from the war front to the
New York Times.
The report. by Richard j. H.
Johnston, said at least third of
80 CHS treated by an Army medi-
cal unit suffered battle fatigue after
having been cut off and surrounded
by Communist armored spearheads
near Suwon last week.
I'VE were doing good against odds
of better than Is to one" said 1t.
James L. Glawson of Cooley. Tex,
but when you have 20 more am
munition and you are facing tanks
you can't do much"
GlaWSon, a veteran of some of the
heaviest fighting in Europe during
World War Two, said his company
of less than 100 men accounted for
at least 1000 Communist attackers.
He added
I'm spite of their losses they just
kept on coming. don't claim to
understand the grand strategy Of
this thing but I will never again
lead men into a situation like that
one.
"Our orders we're to hold at all
cost. We did, but the cost was awful
high as far as 1 am concerned

Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON


. copyright. Isao. ~ zen Syndicate. Incl
UASHINGTON-Only a few in
siders realized it but, at his last
press conference, President Truman
blithely tossed out the window a
carefully nurtured plan for hating
a nationwide rail strike.
Behind the scenes, Utah's schol-
arly Ebert Thomas, Senate labor
committee chairman, together with
Wayne Morse, who settled the 194l
nationwide rail strike just before
Pearl Harbor, had pleaded with
Mr.. Truman to follow path they
had smoothed out-namely, an ap-
peal to the patriotism OF the
switchmen to go back to work.
Instead, the President went along
with the suggestion Of Harry OAR
by, the freshman Republican SEN
ator from Kansas. Unsmiling, he
CURLY announced that the striking
switchmen should get back on the
job, or the government would take
drastic action.
Senators Thomas and Morse, one
a Democrat, the other a Repub-
hcan, had urged Mr. Truman to
handle the switchmen's strike and
the threatened trainmen and con-
ductors' strike set for July is all
as one problem.
THE brotherhoods don't want to
strike" Senator Thomas told the
President. The railroads have the
union in exactly the same position
the mine operators had John Lewis
the last time. An appeal from you
would keep the trains moving"
Senator Morse, in a separate
talk with Truman, said virtually
the same thing. Both senators
had received private assurances
from Brotherhood representatives
in advance that such an appeal
would do the trick, and there
would be no strike. What they

shuffIed 10 Korean Area

WASHINGTON, July IL - R -
Draft machinery to produce the TO-
900 recruits asked for by the Army
was in motion today, while mill
tary leaders sought ships to carry
already trained troops to back the
defense of Southern Korea against
invading Communists.
The Army said it is studying the
possibility of opening induction
centers to handle the draftees as
well as the flow of volunteers yes
terday's Gallup is expected to pro-
duce.
Army officials explained. however,
that induction centers may not be
necessary. unless the enlistment
volume increases considerably.
The Army now has four training
centers strategically located to tap
the country's principal population
centers. They are the Fourth In
fantry Division at Fort Ord, Calf. !;
the Ninth Infantry at Fort Dix, NJ,
the Tenth Infantry at Fort Riley,
Kans., and the Third Armored Di-
vision at Fort Knox, Ky.
Army officials said that an i'm
mediate decision about setting up
induction centers could be delayed
as Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey,
director of selective service, said it
would take about 60 days for his
reactivated organization to provide
recruits the Army could start turn
ing into soldiers.
Wants Them Now
The call for 10000 men the
Army said it wanted them "at the
earliest possible date"-would in
dictate that few would be indicted
in any one community on the first
go-around. For example, draft
official in the District of Columbia
figured it would mean about 100
from the City of Washington.
Gen. Hershey said that if the
draft call goes as high as 100000
men he believes the men can be
provided from among those regis
trants who are % years of age or
older.
To meet the overseas shipping
problem, the military establishment
has tackled the first phase by re-
shuffling assignments of about 100
vessels in the Military Sea Trans
port Service.
This action has already produced
the transports needed to carry the
First Marine Division from Cali
fornia to Korea. The attack trans
port Henrico was diverted from the
annual summer supply voyage to
Alaska.
