Temporary Use
OF 38th Parallel
Would Re-estubIish
Line Pending Steps
To Unity All Korea
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-Yugo-
slav Vice Premier Edward Kardelj
called today for the temporary re-
establishment of the 18th Parallel
as the demarcation line in Korea
He attacked those supporting
North Korea's aggressive course.
In a policy speech before the
United Nation General Assembly
the Yugoslav official declared that
Premier Marshal Tito's govern
ment considers that the present
policy of the government of North
Korea does not serve the cause OF
the true independence and unity
of the Korean people,"
In the same speech he charged
that the Soviet bloc is increasing
the pressure on Yugoslavia by pro-
voking border incidents almost
daily.
Attacks Aggression.
Although he did not mention
the Soviet Union or Communist
China by name, Mr.. Kardelj's
meaning on Korea was obvious
when he said:
Those who are inspiring the
policy and activities of the North
Korean government have en-
barked upon an aggressive course,
whose consequences will have to
be borne by the people of the
whole world"
Mr.. Kardelj's statement re-
garding the 38th parallel came
at a time when 1t appeared likely
u. N. forces in Korea soon might
reach that old dividing line. He
made no specific reference to
U. N. troops. In the Security
Council Yugoslavia abstained on
the June resolution ordering mill
tary action against North Korea.
The United Nations, Mr.. Kar-
deli said, should strive to find
IA solution which would bring
about a cessation of hostilities
and the temporary re-establish-
ment pending the achievement
of Korean unity-of the former
demarcation line along the 38th
parallel"
Offers Two Resolutions.
Mr.. Kardelj, who also is Yugo-
slavia's foreign minister. charged
the Soviet bloc has accelerated its
campaign against his country by
provoking new border incidents.
simultaneously Yugoslavia in
troduced two resolutions designed
to strengthen the Assembly's ef-
forts to prevent aggression.
One calls for the establishment
of permanent mediation CON-
mission made up of small powers
The other requires a nation in
volved in armed conflict to issue a
cease-f1re order within "a hours
and to withdraw it's armed forces
from disputed territory. Failure to
do SO automatically would brand
the country as an aggressor.

Pope Urges Firm Fight
By Priests on Marxism
BY the Associated Press

VATICAN CITY, Sept. 25.-Pope
Plus told Catholic priests through
out the world today there must
be no uncertainty" in the fight
against communism.
The pontiff's order was included
in a lengthy "exhortation" to
Catholic clergy made public today.
1t urged priests, on the occasion
of the present Holy Year, to strive
toward greater sanctity, which the
Pope said is demanded by their
high vocation and necessary to a
fruitful apostolate.
The eXhortation was titled
"Menti Nostrae," from it's first
two Latin words, which were
translated in the Vatican's italian
version into "1n Our Spirit" It
will be published in today's Osser-
vatore Romano, the semi official
Vatican newspaper.
It's explicit reference to commu-
nism was the pontiff's second such
in his 11-year reign. The first was
September 4, 1949, when he spoke
by radio to German Catholics and
told them the church's excom-
munication decree against COM
munism sought to save the world
from "Marxisn."

Pepeo Says Rate Boost
Would Bring Transit
And City Bills Into Line
Cites Figures Contendine
Both Got Substantial
Break in Electric Rates

Witnesses for the Potomac Elec-
trio Power Co. today produced
figures intended to prove that its
customers, including the Capital
Transit Co. and the District gov
eminent, would pay more equal
share of the city's electric bill if
new rates are approved.
Resuming hearings recessed
August % before the Public Utili-
ties Commission, Herbert F. Main,
Pepco rate engineer, led of this
morning with a cost-of-service
study made by the company OF
the six-month period ending in
June.
The statement indicates that
Capital Transit and the District
have been getting a substantial
break on their rates up till now
The company said the intention is
to bring their bills more into line
with those of other customers if
the PUG allows the $3.5 million
annual increase which they seek.
SIS Million Revenue.
The company's statement shows
total six-month revenue of $18,-
480, 1929, of which Capital Transit,
on the basis of the power it re-
quired, should have paid 4 per
cent or $738.470. In the period,
according to the statement, the
transit company paid only 2.48 per
cent of the city bill, or $458,470.
The District government, in
lighting the streets. should have
received bill of $884,782, accord
ing to the Pepco figures. Actual
revenues from the District
amounted to 1886, 404 for the half
year. .....-.
Under the proposed general 9.5
per cent rate increase, the transit
company's electric bill would be
$772,000 for the period-repre-
senting nearly a 70 per cent in
crease. The statement indicates
that this figure would still be less
than the company's share of the
total expense, estimated at $794,-
600 under the adjusted rates.
Rate Boost Assailed.
The request for rate increase
has drawn bitter fire from off,
Gals of the transit company, who
claim that the increased cost
would have to be passed on to the
public in the form of higher
fares.
At the hearing this morning, at
torneys for the company resumed
their cross examination of Pepco
officials.
Lawyers for the District gov
eminent requested further time
to study the Pepco statement be-
fore asking their own questions.
The figures show that in the six
month period the District paid
only $586,404 for electricity cost
ing 1884. 702. If the rates are
adjusted. the city's bill would be
1891 900.
Private consumers, on the other
hand, have been paying more than
their share of the total Pepco
revenues and will continue to do
