CWIL-DEFENSE
Plan Handed Congress

A blueprint for a vast civil de-
tense program, greater than that
of World War II, was placed be-
fore congress. It was designed to
rally the nation from an atomic at
tack and enable it to strike back
swiftly and destroy the aggressor.
W. Stuart Symington, chairman
Of the national security resources
board which drafted the plan, said
the program was needed because
for the first time since the war of
1872 ian enemy has the power to
attack our cities, and for the first
time in our history that attack may
come suddenly, with little or no
warning"
The boards report said, Grant
ed a few minutes warning, cas-
ualties could be reduced by over
SO per cent through proper organ
ization and training in civil de-
Tense"
80 The program outlined a mutual
aid system reaching into every
American home and calling for the
services of hundreds of thousands
of paid and unpaid workers at the
federal, state, and local levels.

USDA Recommends DOT
For Termite Control

The U. S. department of agricul-
ture has come up with the answer
for one of t h e farmers serious
problems-termites.
The USDA says a single treat
ment of DOT will prevent termites
from attacking woodwork for at
least five years and anyone can ap-
ply the treatment. Here's the mix
ture to use: S per cent DOT in No.
2 fuel oil. 1t will give wooden
structures complete protection from
termites.
Entomologists suggest digging
trench along the buildings founda-
tion-about 30 inches deep and about
the width of a spade. Then the
earth should be saturated at the bot
tom with the DOT preparation. The
soil which is used to fill up the
trench also should be saturated. APP
ply the treatment at the rate of one
quart per cubic foot of soil.

Although no consumer items

expected. No shortages are expect
ed to develop, but the move was
made to prevent overbuying by
businessmen.
N.P.A. administrator William H.

order is to make clear that nation
al interest demands there be no
accumulation of materials beyond
what is needed for immediate pro-
duction."
The new defense production law
provides $4,000 fine and one year

BIG THREE:
Not in Accord

Diplomatic sources noted with
concern break, although not con-
sidered too serious, in the relations
of the Big Three foreign ministers
in their first series of New York
meetings.
Dean Acheson, representing the
United States, Robert Schuman of
France, and Ernest Bevin of Great
Britain were not in accord on the
U. S. proposal to rearm western
Germany. That was the major
source of disagreement.
The United States, through Ach-
eson, had urged the 12-nation
North Atlantic council to reach
agreement in principle that west
ern German forces should become
part of the projected western Eu-
ropean army.
The U. S. idea was that German
troop units would be included in
the west tern European army.
France, however, indicated that
she wanted to 60 slow and easy
oA tilS QUESTION.
The gist of the French attitude
seemed to be that it was prema-
ture to agree Immediately on the
principle of eventual German re-
armament. That attitude was un-
derstandable in that France had not
forgotten, or is likely to forget,
World War I or World War I,
spanked by German aggression.
Observers said that there was
possibility that the foreign minis
tiers might come to some sort of
agreement in principle among
themselves, though it might not be
announced publicly.
The ministers discussed a broax
range of urgent problems. A COM
munique issued by the three said
they were fully agreed that the
most urgent problem was that of
Strengthening the defenses of the
free world both in Europe and in
Asia and were equally agreed that
immediate effective steps must be
taken to that end. "a
That, perhaps, was true indi-
cation of the atmosphere in which
the ministers worked. 1t was not
a question of what had to be done,
but the best way to accomplish it.

|MARSHALL:.
Anger Close to Tears

In an atmosphere of bitterness
that at times brought senators to
their feet in anger that bordered on
tears, congress cleared the way for
General of the Army George c.
Marshall, soldier for 40 years, to
serve as secretary of defense.
The waiver to the unification act
which forbids the office of secretary
Of defense to a commissioned Of
ficer within 10 years of the end Of
his active service was approved
by the house 220 to 105 and by the
senate by At. to 81.
But before the vote In the SEN
ate. William E. Jenner Of Indiana
took the floor and for an hour, while
the senators sat in silence and
shame, launched into an attack on
Marshall's honor that astounded
foes and friends alike.
1t was the temperance Of the
bitter core of isolationism and Sen.
Robert Taft of Ohio and Sen. Ken
meth Wherry of Nebraska immedi-
ately made it plain that they were
not going along with Jenner's de-
nunciation of General Marshall as
soldier and a man.
Taft opposed the waiver on the
grounds that it would put a mill
tary man in the cabinet as head of
the military establishment and
would strike at the old American
tradition of civilian control of mill
tary affairs. Taft also commended
it would strengthen the position of
the secretary of state Sin relation
to the Chinese Communists" That
was as far as he would go.
Jenner, however, attacked Mar
shall as "either an unSuspecting
stooge or an actual co-conspirator
with the most reasonable array
of political cutthroats ever turned
loose in the executive branch of the
government"
Sen. Scott Lucas of Illinois called
Jenner's speech "reprehensible, ir-
responsible, the most diabolical
speech in the halls of congress that
l have ever heard in 16 years here"
The Republicans in the senate were
inclined to agree.
Most observers said that Jenners
attack on a man who has served his
country for 40 years and is great
ly respected by the American peo-
pie in every walk of life, will have
further and deeper repercussions.
The Indiana senator is known as
one of the most consistent isola-
tlonists in congress. His attack,
although denied by such men as
Taft and Wherry, still carries the
label of the Republican party and
may be reflected in the coming
elections.

KOREA:
Now the Offensive

With unexpected and dramatic
suddennesS the war in Korea
turned from the defensive to the
offensive.
1t was sudden in that the Ameri.
can people were surprised that
United Nations forces could be
mustered to launch an offensive.
And it was dramatic in it's concep-
ton and execution by Gen. Douglas
Macarthur.
From June Is, when the Com
munist struck with surprising force
and generalship, the people of
America watched one continual
withdrawal. They heard of one
Communist advance after another
and the fall of such cities as Seoul,
Suwan, Kumsan and Taejon. Fur
ther and further the Communists ad-
Vanced until U.N. forces held a
beachhead in the southeast corner
OF Korea that offered little or no
room for further retreat and little
possibilities for an offensive.
And then in one stroke General
Macarthur launched an invasion of
Korea over 100 miles behind the
Communist lines at Inchon. Other
forces landed at Yongdok and at
points on the east coast.
The main invading force on the
west coast at Inchon had one OBJ
3ective: the capture of Seoul, for
mer capital of South Korea, and
cutting the supply routes of the
Communists from North Korea. At
the same time a general offensive
was launched in the south from the
u. N. beachhead.
General Macarthur did not try
10 hide his eventual hopes for the
operation. He wanted to cut Ko-
xea just below the 38th parallel and
thus have the Communists armies
between two hammers that would
slowly but surely beat them to
pieces and destroy them.
The initial invasion was success
ful. U. S. marine n d army d.
visions captured Wolmi islands in
less than an hour, overran Inchon
and advanced on Seoul. Kimpo air
deld, the best in Korea, was cap
tured, and American troops stood
at the outskirts of Seoul.
The southern offensive progressed
slowly against stubborn Com
munist rear guard action. There
were indications, however, that
Communist defenses were crum-
bling.

SPYING:
Slack Admits Guilt

Alfred Dean Slack, a former
chemist at Syracuse, NY, plant,
admitted in federal court at Green
vile, Tenn, he was guilty of war
time spying for Soviet Russia.
Slack said he supplied Russian
agents with a sample of RDX, a
high explosive, and the formula for
its manufacture.
U. S. attorney James M. Meek
told the court there were "exten-
uating circumstances" in Slack s
favor and recommended a 1O-year
prison sentence.
Meek told the court how Harry
Gold, a Philadelphia biochemist
now awaiting trial on espionage
charges, made contact with Slack
and asked him to obtain details of
the manufacture of RDX.
Slack repeatedly refused three
times to give Gold the information,
but when threatened with exposure
as Soviet SPY" obtained a
sample of the explosive and the
formula, and turned them over to
Gold.

You can add phosphate to the soil
next spring through the use of fer
tilizer carrying this plant nutrient.
But well-nourished corn needs 9TH
er elements besides phosphate. It
needs nitrogen and potash, too. So
the surest way to keep your corn
healthy and well fed and to get high
yields per acre, is to give your soil
balanced supply of plant foods
carrying all three major elements
nitrogen, phosphate and potash.
Good soil filth is another essential
for getting high corn yields. You
can build filth and put the soil in
prime condition for growing corn,
alfalfa and sweet clover, mellow the
soil, loosen tight competitions below
the pillow layer and make the soil
more porous so water and air can
get in.

Plant Starvation
Lowers Corn Yield
Lack Of Phosphate May
Be Factor in Failure

By checking signs of plant rood
starvation on the corn you harvest
ed this fall, you can take steps to
increase yields next year.
For example, if the corn in your
crib has lot of ears like those in
the accompanying illustration, the
crop was starved for phosphate.
The reason for this was that part of
the silks came out too late to catch
any pollen. The kernels were not
fortified and so failed to fill out.
The untitled rows or parts of rows
make the ears lopsided and curled.
