Scrombiing to Get

KOREA, Aug. 9.-North Ko-
rean troops shot down some of
their own comrades today in

meeting of the committee to con-
slider President Truman'S request
for legislation during this session
to cover loopholeS in eXising law.
We're having bill prepared
taking in all suggestions of the
President as we'll as some of the
suggestions made up here Sena-
tor Lucas said.
He added that no decision had
been reached on whether the new
measure would be offered as a
substitute for the Mundt-Fergu-
son bill dealing with the problem.
President Truman, in his message
yesterday asking for legislation on
the subject, by implication criti-
cized the Mundt- Ferguson bill.
Playing Politics Charged.
Members of both praties were
maneuvering, meanwhile, to get
their own versions before the
Senate. Each side charged the
other with playing politics.
In the House two committees
were in a race to get to the floor
first with legislation.
Led by Senators Ferguson of
Michigan and Mundt of South
Dakota. Republicans talked over
parliamentary plans to force
action on their bill.
Chairman Celler, of the House
Judiciary Committee said he will
begin work Immediately to put
the Presidents ideas into legisla-
tive form, and that he hopes to
begin public hearings next week.
But the House Committee on Un-
American Activities already has
held extensive public hearings on
proposals to curb Communism
Chairman Wood said he hopes to
have a bill ready before the end
of this week. That committee
was meeting today.
Wood Proposal Explained.
There was speculation that a
bill by Mr.. Wood himself might
form the basis for the committee
bill. This proposal would make
it unlawful for member of the
Communist Party to work for the
Government or to hold job con-
nected with defense production.
1t presumably would be broad
ened to include at least some
features of a controversial meas
ure sponsored by Representative
Nixon, Republican. of California.
and generally referred to as the
Mundt-Nixon bill. But by using
Woods bill as a starting basis,
the Democratic majority of the
committee would be getting away
from a Republican label.
Would Register Spies.
Mr.. Truman left no doubt he
was talking about the Mundt-
Ferguson bill in the Senate when
he said that measures proposing
to impose severe penalties for
normal political activities on the
part of certain groups, including
Communists and Communist-line
followers" may do more harm than
good.
Asserting that 1--WE must not be
swept away by wave of hySteria, "
Mr.. Truman called in a message
read to both houses for:
l. An extended statute of limi-
tations (now three years. on
peacetime espionage.
2. Registration of foreign
trained spies and subversives.
3. Broader presidential author
ity to fix security regulations on
military bases and defense estab-
lisnments.
4. Authority for the Attorney
General to supervise aliens sub
ject to deportation, especially

Seek Carload OF
Soybeans 10 Send
Hunger centers

Church leaders of Madison
County are sponsoring collection
of one or more carloads of soy
beans, to be shipped overseas for
direct relief among millions of
refugees, through the Christian
Rural Overseas Program, accord
ing to Roger Counts and Alvin
Barr, CROP co-chairman.
Clergymen who will act as
Vice-Chairmen of the County
Committee represent the three
parent agencies of CROP. They
are Father David Powers, Pastor
Lawrence Rugh, and Rev. A. NJ.
Shenefelt.
Due to the fact that the church
relief agencies abroad can use
100% of the soybean for human
nutrition, that grain was chosen
by the church leaders for col
lection in this county. The beans
go directly to Philadelphia and
thence by boat to the overseas
relief agency of the church, which
in turn oversees distribution to
local relief centers. The oil from
soybeans supplies fat which is
very necessary to reinforce diets,
and meal which is used for cereal,
soup, bread and other edibles.
Citizens will have an opportun-
ity to see the distress among the
refugees with their own eyes,

Polio Victim Flown 1900
Miles TO Jersey Hospital

Slight improvement has been
noted in the condition of Mrs.
Ruth McMurray, undergoing
treatment for polio in Patterson
General Hospital, Patterson. N. j.,
after being flown to the United
States from Manila, Philippine
Islands.
She is the wife of Captain Rob-
ert McMurray, son of Mrs. Rob-
ert McMurray. of Lucas Pike,
London, Ohio, Route 3.
Capt. McMurray was air in
stallation officer with the United
States Airforce at Clark Field,
about 40 miles from Manila, from
January 1850 until August l. Mrs.
McMurray and their son joined
him in the Philippines last May.
Mrs. McMurray was taken i'll
and it was necessary for her to
return to this country. Capt. Nc
Murray was again transferred,
this time to Mitchell Field. Long
Island, with the Continental Air
Command.
Patiens Rallies
Death lowered over many times
for Mrs. McMurray during her
1000 miles of pain-wracked al
travel from Manila to the New
Jersey hospital. The 23-ycar-old
mother. completely disabled by
polio, rallied once she had reach
ed protection of the hospital.
Four times in 16 days as Army
medical men and nurses changed
her from one iron lung to another
she fought desperately for breath.
Each time nurses bathed her was
a period of pain, as polio-tortured
muscles and nerves reacted under
the slightest pressure.
Standing by her through these
16 days of terror was her hus-
band, And with them through it all,
aware only of the unusual hustle
and excitement and oblivious to
the drama in which he played a
part, was their 18-month-old son,
Robert ,Jr.
Captain McMurray went almost
without sleep since the flight
home began in Manila September
13. Frequently as the ambulance
plane reached high altitude he
kept his wife alive by giving her
artificial respiration. Several
times crew members fed her OK
ygen.
Mrs. McMurray was taken i'll
Aug. 26. Facilities were few and
barely adequate in Manila. But
there was an excellent iron lung.
Captain McMurray said. 1T saved
my wife's life.
While at the Air Base in San
Francisco, awaiting the journey
to Texas, Hollywood film stars.
Donald O'Connor, Vivian Leigh
and keenan, Wynn came to the
hospital and entertained Ruth
in her private room.

the loud speaker in the office he
broadcast brief message to all
the other men in the institution.
Davis now holds the heavy
weight championship for the Ohio
Penitentiary and the London
Prison. The date for the opening
of the boxing season has not been
set, but Charles electrified the
whole place by promising to come
to the Farm and box three rounds
with Davis if officials would let
him know when the date is set.
"A mild hammered, courteous,
gentleman" was the report on
Charles from men who met him
at the Farm.
