RAILROADS.:
Strike ond Crush

Two items of railroad news were
in the public mind, one bad and
one good.
The A FL switchmen's union
agreed to end its strike against
four midwest and western railroads.
The fifth continued its walkout, but
returned to work after President
Truman ordered the army to take
over.
The switchmen made no bones
about why they were calling off
the strike. AS they put it, we are
calling it off because of the threat
of direct governmental action"
Truman had scored again. The
day before he had told his weekly
press conference at Washington
that the union had better halt the
strike or else. Evidently the union
didn't like that 'or else"
On the bad side, two high speed
Santa Fe railway streamliners,
streaking eastward side by side,
one travelling at 80 miles an hour
and the other seventy, bumped
midsections in freakish accident.
Nine dead and rs injured were
carried from the twisted metal
cars in the Illinois collision.

UNITED NATIONS:
Fights Aggression

There are moments in the march
of current events that make his
tory. In the eyes of many political
observers such a moment &C.
CURED recently when Secretary
General of the United Nations,
Trygve Lie, picked up the three by
five-foot blue and white UN flag
and handed it to Warren R. Austin,
chief U. S. delegate to the UN, and
asked him to send it to General
Douglas Macarthur.
The Security Council had just
authorized the UN flag be flown
alongside national standards in op-
erations against the Red Korean
invaders.
And as he handed the flag to Aus
tin, he said:
Bring it back when the job is
DONE"
On these words hinge the hopes
of the free world. Observers saw
in them a belief that the United
Nations efforts in Korea will be
successful and at last a world or
ganization has been formed that
will endure and protect the minori-
ties for generations to come.
Observers were particularly i'm
pressed because it climaxed firm
and positive action by the commun-
ity of nations to secure world
peace.
Up to this point the United Ma
tons had:
(1) Demanded the withdrawal of
Communist invaders from South
Korea.
(2) Quickly endorsed the United
States action OF sending aid to
South Korea and called upon all
members of the United Nations to
render assistance to carry out the
police action against the Commu-
nists.
(3) Appointed General MacAr-
thur commander of international
forces in Korea.
The historic flag which Lie hand
ed to Ambassador Austin was the
one that flew over the headquarters
of DR.. Ralph Bunche during his
successful mediation of the Arab
Israeli war. 1t is the visible symbol
of the first military sanctions ever
levied against an aggressor by a
world organization.

JUMPING JACK:
Sets Chute Record

Sgt. John (Ju m ping Jack)
Sweitch set out to break the worlds
record parachute leaps in a single
day, which he did with 1O7 drops.
If he proved anything else it was
the fact the human body will take
a lot of punishment and that some
people seem to get pleasure out Of
risking their necks.
The sergeant, with the aid of his
buddies of the 82nd Airborne Divi-
sion, made LOT drops in 10 hours,
an average of one every six minutes.
He twisted his ankle and
sprained his knee on the 51st Jump
and slowed down long enough to
have his leg tapped. After each
jump, a jeep and a pickup truck
met him. The jeep rushed him
back to the Piper Cub plane which
took him aloft again, while the
truck took his chutes to the hanger
where his six buddies were kept
busy repacking them.
The sergeant's only complaint
during the endurance test was he
would be all right "if he could sur
vive the jeep rides"

THAT SMELL:
Not The Russians

Four towns in Illinois and three
in Iowa provided the nation with a
chuckle, but it was not funny at
the time at least to residents of
those towns.
A foul smell crept through Mo-
line, East Moline, Selvis and Rock
Island, ILL.,, and then spread across
the border into Muscatine, Betten-
dorf and Davenport, Iowa.
Some residents went into hyster-
les, one man insisted to Selvis po-
lice that "the Russians are flying
over and gassing u.s." citizens were
forced from their beds and from
taverns, police switchboards were
damned with calls and firemen kept
on a near-emergency basis. Scores
of Moline residents jumped into
their cars and drove in their night
clothes to high ground and fresher
air.
When the excitement died down
investigation disclosed the odor re-
suited from leak in a tank of entail
arm being hauled through the area
on a truck headed west. Entalarm
is an odorant used to inject a
smell of natural gas, normally
odorless, to permit detection of
leaks. 1t is not injurious but can
cause nausea.

KOREA:
The Tide Flows

Military observers, still watcn-
ing the Soviet Union for any signs
of open participation in the Korean
war, were of the opinion the tide
has begun to flow-against the ag-
gressors.
During the first two weeks of the
conflict South Korean and Ameri-
can troops, acting under orders of
the United Nations, took a beating.
But as the battle went into the
third week, American arms-guns,
tanks and planes-and us. soldiers
stemmed the rush of the Commu-
mist armies.
At a point some so to 60 miles
south of Seoul, capital of South
Korea which fell into the hands of
the invaders a few days after the
sneak attack, American and Com
munist troops met.
At first American troops were
forced to withdraw before Red
tanks. And at the moment when it
seemed the invaders might break
through again, U. S. big guns and
tanks, plus fresh foot soldiers
poured into the area. The attack
was stopped and many observers
believe the counter attack will
come as the stream of supplies in
crease.
A big factor in the blunted Com
munist attack was the U. S., Brit
ish and Australian air forces.
Fighters and bombers carried out
continuous attacks upon tanks,
roads, and bridges. They ripped
open Communist positions with
low flying rocket and machine gun
attack. The big bombers blasted
away at supply lines and commune
cation centers. Their blows were
felt by the invaders and will spear
head the inevitable counter attack.
Meanwhile, American divisions
within the United States were be-
ing readied to move to the Far
East. General Macarthur had, at
the beginning of the conflict, four
divisions in Japan. He has already
drawn upon them and troops with
in the country will replace those
from Japan plus reinforcements
for the battle area.

REORGANIZATION:
New Plan Killed

President Humans plan to Gre
ate a new department of health,
education and security has been
killed by the house. It was, Incl
dentally, the first time this session
the house has rejected a reorgani-
cation plan. The senate has killed
six.
The house adopted, 249 to II, a
resolution of disapproval of the
measure. It was killed apparently
by opponents who argued it would
be step toward "socialized medi-
cine"
Democrats who supported the
plan, however, denied it had any
bearing on socialized medicine.
They said only congress could
bring this about by passing neces-
sary legislation.

TRUTH CAMPAIGN:
Counterfeit Propaganda

For years Communist propagan-
da has been spread around the
world, but no one seems to know
just how much of the story of de-
mocracy has reached the enslaved
peoples OF the world. Now the state
department has announced plans
for "a great campaign of truth" to
counter Moscow's broadsides of
propaganda against the United
States and other democratic ma
tons.
Secretary of State Acheson told
about the plan in testimony before
senate foreign-relations subcom-
mittee. General Eisenhower also
testified before the committee, de-
claring, "Truth could almost be
classified as our T-bomb (truth-
bomb in this warfare"
General Marshall, who also testi-
fled, said he is firmly convinced
that 1--WE must confine ourselves to
the truth" and that we must meet
the Soviet procedure in what is
called their conquest of the minds
of people.
Acheson told the senators the
Communist campaign of vilification
"jeopardizes the security of the
United States and is threat to the
security of the free world"
1.-THE cynical aggression of COM
munism in Korea, and the false
hoods that have preceded and &C.
companied it, make inescapably
clear the importance of the cam
paign of truth" he said.

MLMfCF/EN:
Draft in Effect

The recently enacted draft law
has been put into effect President
Truman ordered an expansion of
the fighting forces in view of the
Korea situation through enlistment
or the draft
Immediately after the Presidents
order, spokesman for the army,
navy and air forces said they would
be happy to get all their required
manpower through enlistments
alone if possible. Whether or not
enlistments will fill the armed
forces needs will be determined
within the next two weeks
Just how much the armed forces
will be expanded has been kept Sc
cret. Presumably it could run as
high as 547, 482 men, bringing the
services to 2,005,882.
There is also the possibility that
reserves will be called up, although
spokesman for the services said
none will be ordered to duty at
present without their consent.
A spokesman for the Pentagon
said the enactment of the draft
law was necessary to meet "the
situation in Korea" and "consti-
tutes first step to build up to full
operating strength the units of the
army, navy and air force to be
used in the Korean operation, to
provide further maintenance and
support therefor, and to replace
units to be moved to Korea"
