WASHINGTON, DC, July 10
(ADC)-The nation is girding it
self for the economic costs of sup
porting u NJ action in Korea. And
this has dimmed hopes Congress
will expand the Evacuation Claims
Act budget for the fiscal year 1851.
Reliable sources this week ad-
vised the JACL Anti-Discrimina
ton Committee there seems little
likelihood Congress will provide
much more for the claims program
this year than the 81 100000 pro-
posed by the Senate Appropria-
lions Committee because Of the 10
rean situation. Most domestic mea-
sures are being cut. The defense
departments are the only ones in
for more money.
Nevertheless, Mike Masaoka, ma
tional JACL ADO legislative direct
or, said a strong effort will be made
on either the floor of the Senate
or in House-Senate conferences on
the 1851 national budget to get an
increase in claims appropriations.
Specifically, the JACL Ado will
seek to increase the 100000 pro-
posed for adjudicating claims and
administering the program during
the forthcoming fiscal year to a
$500 900 total 1t will ask, but not
press, for an increase in the one
million dollars now proposed to pay
adjudicated claims in the fiscal
year 1851.
we are taking such action not
because of selfish motives at time
when the nation must seriously
practice economy, but because in
the long picture the only true eco
nomy in handling evacuation claims
will come from settling the whole
thing as quickly as possible Ma
saoka said
He pointed that that with some
$131 100000 in claims, it could take
from IS to so years, under the pre-
emily proposed budget to adjudi-
cate and pay the $4,000 claims fill
ed under the Evacuation Claims
Act.
The Justice Department has es-
timated the final cost of adiudi-
eating claims and administering
he program will be roughly three
per cent of the aggregate of all the
claims If the Senates proposed
budget allowing only 100000 for
administering the program in the
fiscal year 1851 is adopted, 1t would
require a minimum of 10 more years
to wind up the program. However
masaoka declared that the slower
the program operates for the next
few years. the longer it will take

West Glacier-Glacier park
neared the e n of its first July
week with a record number of
visitors, 45,026 by Friday morn
ing.
The p a r k experienced its all
time crowd over the July 4 holi-
day. There were II, 446 visitors
last Sunday, and 81, $50 for the
four days compared to 81, 10 for
the same days a year ago.
The July 4 visitors this year
came from every state except
Maine, Vermont and New Hamp-
shire.
Supt. ]. w. Emmert was es-
pecially pleased at h e safety
record. Glaciers 4th was nearly
accident free. There We're two
autombile collisions, but these
did not cause personal injury.
However, park rangers are con-
cerned with the growing threat
of traffic jams caused by bum
bears. As the million-acr park
attracts more visitors, the traffic
j m S caused by panhandling
bears on Going-to-the-Sun high
way become larger.
Glaciers 1850 trave now
stands at 126, 449 compared to
125, 1922 for the same time year
ago; 1949 was the parks record
year with 479, S39 visitors.

Doctors Discovery May Permit
Warming of ArteriuI HARDENING

BERKELEY, Calf, Feb. 16.-A
discovery which may lead to de-
velopment of a test that will tell
whether person is going to have
hardening of the arteries was re-
ported today by a group of Uni
versity of California medical re-
searcherS.
In the blood of 101 out of 104
persons who had had attacks of
coronary thrombosis, a frequent
result of arterial hardening, the
experimenters found three kinds
of giant molecules which were
either scarce or lacking in the
blood of normal people.
This single finding does not
yet form sufficient basis for a
specific test, said Dr.. John w.
Gofman, who headed the research
team, but it may point the way
toward one. The report will be
published tomorrow in the jour-
nal Science.
Doctors have no way now of
telling definitely in advance
whether a patient is destined to
have arterial hardening.
Given advance warning, doc
tors might be able to combat the
disease more effectively. Or, a
blood test might eventually yield
information on the cause, and in

disclosed yesterday.
No new funds would be re-
quired. Robert c. Goodwin. di-
rector of the Labor Departments

said the money would come from
unspent funds the Government
has collected during the last ID

of the unemployment insurance
program.
The proposal came to lighr
along with testimony from Gov.
ernment experts that unemploy
ment in some spots now is a.
high as it was during the depth
of the depression.
At present about 33 million
workers are covered by the un-
employment insurance program
which is financed by State pay
roll taxes paid by employers.
Mr.. Goodwin reported that *
the last fiscal year 20 States and
Alaska and Hawaii spent more
for unemployment compensation
than they collected. He said
Connecticuts benefit payments
were 393 per cent of collections
and Rhode Islands 324 per cent,
