Macarthur Authorizes
More Japan Police
By the Associoted Press

TOKYO, July 8.-Gen. Mac
Arthur today moved to protect his
military rear by authorizing the
japanese to add a 75.000-man re-
serve to their police force and
8, 900 to their coast guard.
It will bring Japan's total police
force to 100000, including 10000
national police.
Authorization for the reserves
was made in letter to Japanese
Prime Minister Shigeru Yoshida.
Japanese sources said the new
reserve would be established di-
rectly under the government.
They estimated recruiting and
training would require at least
three months.
Gen. Macarthur also authorized
the National Maritime Safety
Board - equivalent to a coast
guard-to add 5000 men for a
total of $4,000.
Japan now has $500 metropoli-
tan police, which with the ma
tional rural police force total
125 ,00G men.
The rural police maintain order
in smaller communities not served

Step Up War Games
By the Asseeiated Press

BERLIN, July 8.-Eight Soviet
divisions are stepping up extensive
war games on East Germany's
plains. American authorities re-
ported yesterday.
The Korean conflict and it's un-
certain political trends may be a
factor, American observers say,
but they think it more likely that
the Russians maneuvers have
been stepped up because of the
influx of thousands of young, un-
trained troops.

John j. McCloy told a news con-
ference in Frankfurt yesterday
that there are no signs of any
immediate attack on Western Ger

is going to be any attack"

zone of Germany on terrain ideal
for tank sweeps. An undeter-

Although this is normally ma
neuver time for the Soviet occu-

On June IS, an Emergency Board APP
pointed by President Truman under the
terms of the Railway Labor Act recon-
nended the railroads grant switchmen
4O-hour week and wage increase of 10
cents an hour, or 81. "A for an 8-hour day.
Despite the added financial burden in.
volved, the railroads are ready to accept
these recommendations, as they have al
ways accepted Emergency Board recon-
mendations on national issues
But the leaders of the Switchmen's
Union refuse to accept! They demand an
average increase of 81 CENTS AN HOUR OR
$2.4S A DAY-although their present earn
ings are substantially higher than those of
workers in other industries!
Board Says Demands Unjustifed
In its report, the Board declared this de-
n1and unjustified by all the evidence pre-
sented. 1t also pointed out that it would
give the switchmen an unfair pay advan-
tage over other groups of railroad em-
ployes, and would add too great burden
to railroad costs.
Here is another case of a railroad union
1outing the findings of an Emergency
Board-another case of calling Gripping
