 GOES OVER,
 TEN MILES
Reds Mdssing Thousands of Fresh SoIdiers-Mae-
 Arthur Jeeps to Front
By Associated Press

American troops rolled into Red Korea in force today along a To- mile front in the west.
 Field dispatches said the crossing was aggressive but cautious and met only light resistance at the start.
 These other highlights paced Tuesdays war news:
 Air = American Sabre jets shot down thres Russian-type MIG-l5s and damaged three others in furi- ous battle near the Manchurian border. Other Fifth Air Force planes pounded traffic jammed Commun- ist supply lines in day-long at tack against the biggest Red troop buildup of the Korean war.
 Macarthur At Front
 At the Eastern front General Macarthur jeeped 13 road miles in- side North Korea on the East Coast. He rode within 500 yards of the main Red line north of Yangyang. There he found South Korean troops digging in, confident and talking only of attack.
 At the Central front American. Greek and Thai (Siamese) troops climaxed two days of heavy fight ing by winning a high ridgeline north of Chunchon and one mile south of Parallel 38. From the ridge they looked into Red Korean terri tory where the Communists are massing hundreds of thousands of battle-readys soldiers. Df Mortar, Artillery Fire !
 Chinese and North Korean Com munists screening the big Red build-up pounded the Allied soldiers with mortar and artillery fire.
 On his return to Tokyo from his 18th visit to the war front, Mac Arthur said af M
 The enemy's weakness in the air and on the sea and his lack of ar tillery and heavy ground weapons is being beautifully exploited by our field command Gt. Gen. Matthew B. Hidgeway)."

LEGAL TEETH
 PULLED FROM TROOP BILL
Senate Leaders Beat Off Republican Sponsored
 SfrangIehoId

WASHINGTON, April g. R - Senate administration leaders pull led their forces together today to beat off an attempt sponsored by Republicans to put legal teeth into the troops-for- Europe resolution. Yesterday, by 49 to 43 vote, the Senate changed the resolution by adding an amendment of Sem ator Mcclellan D-Ark)
 The change, bitterly fought by administration leaders, would sim ply put the Senate on record as opposing transfer to Europe of any more than four U. s. divisions without further Congressional ap- proval."
 Thirty-eight Republicans and Il Democrats voted for the amend ment; eight Republicans and 35 Democrats voted not.
 So as the resolution stood, it would merely record the Senate as approving President Trumans de- cision to send the four divisions about 100000 men-to join Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower's Western European defense army; and would oppose future transfers without ap- proval from Congress.

Copyright. ls5i. py Bell Syndicate. Inc. WAsH1noroa.-Bsnny Buttsn- wiesser, U. S. Deputy High Commis- sioner for Germany, had conVer- sation with Chancellor Konrad Ad- enauer some time ago which illus trates one of the most important problems the United States faces in Europe.
 The new German Parliament had scaled down taxes on wealthier tax payers about a year ago, leaving a proportionately heavy tax burden on labor and white collar workers.
 The United States, which has the right to intervene in certain af- fairs of the new German govern ment. objected, and it was follow ing this that Deputy Commissioner Buttenwiesser had his talk with Adenauer.
 z Showing him the high tax scale prevailing in the U. s. A., Butten- wiesser argued that wealthy Ger mans also must shoulder their share of the tax burden.
 Chancellor Adenauer replied that he just couldn't believe the United States collected such high taxes. If German taxes remained too

kET(HIkAN HAS 7. PHENOMENAL RUN
 SPRING HERRING

Ketchikan had phenomenal herring run this spring and has been able to meet not only local bait requirements but has been supplying cold storages in other towns. This was the report received in the local Fish and Wildlife Ser vice office this week and released today by Assistant Regional Dir ector c. Howard Baltzo. In the past few years herring have been increasingly hard to get and this years showing in the ketchikan area is of great importance.
 Asked if the Fish and Wildlife Service had an answer to this sud- den show, Baltzo explained that it was due to an exceptionally fine survival of spawn in the lS4i season. He said this was determined by herring sent to the FWS biol ogist in Seattle where the study was made.
 "The abundance of these four year-old fish," Baltzo said, shows that the 1947 survival was greater than all the other five years put together, which years contribute to the catch" Herring have a natural life span of about eight years. Ball. 20 said that these four year-olds are furnishing 52 per cent of the total catch. There is no change in the herring situation in other Southeast Alaska areas, Baitze concluded.

WASHINGTON. April B. = R - The Senate Interior Committee to- day approved statehood proposals for both Alaska and Hawaii.
 Senator O'Mahoney (D.-Wyo), Committee Chairman, said he would press for early action by the Ben- ate. In the last Congress the House voted for statehood but the legislation died in the Senate.
 The committee approved the Ha- waiian statehood bill by 9-4 vote. the Alaska bill squeezed by with a 7-6 edge.
 Both votes followed defeat of a motion by Senator Butler (R-Neb) to substitute his bill permitting the territories to elect their own gov ernor.
 The Butler motion was defeated on the same vote by which the state hood bills were approved.
 Committee Vote
 Senator O'Mahoney said the com mittee vote was as follows:
 Alaska statehood: For = Senators Murray (D-MonO Mcfarland (D- Ariz), Anderson (D-NN), Lehman (D-Lib-NY) Gordon (R-Ore), Ec- ton CR-Mont, O'Mahoney D-Wyo). {.
 Against - Long D-La), Smath- CTS D-Fla), Butler (R-Neb), Ma lone tR-Nev), Watkins R-Utah) :, Millikin (R-Colo). S
 Hawaii statehood: For - Senators Murray CD-Mont), MrFarland tD-l Ariz), Anderson (D-NM). Lehman D-NY). Long D-La), Ecton tR- Mont Gordon (R-Ore), Watkins (R- Utah), and O'Mahoney D-Wyo). | Administrations Smathers O. Fla) Butler R-Neb). Millikin R- Coloe, and Malone CR-Nevl.
 Delegates Talk
 The committees action brought predictions of ultimate victory from the two territory's voteless delegates to Congress. I9h 10 3ssa a1l5ni ft1 A Tt was a,happy surprise" 1" Alaska Delegate Bartlett told a reporter |, in "A significant victory" comment ed Delegate Burlington of Hawaii. li Bartlett said he would make no prediction as to when or if the Alaska bill will be taken to the Senate floor for debate or vote"
 T anticipate" he continued, that we will be confronted in the Senate with the same type of opposition that blocked the vote on statehood late in the last Congress"
 Earlier Senator Butler R.-Neb) said the people of Hawai- have not yet taken vigorous action to clean out Communists.
 His statement was printed in the Congressional Record as the corn- mittee met again to consider state- hood for Hawaii and Alaska.
 Butler, the ranking Republican member of the committee. is lead- ing opponent of statehood for Ha- waii
 He included in this statement an article from the Honolulu Star Bulletin. The newspaper article asserted that Ernest Arena had been removed from Governor Stain backs full employment committee because he was one of the "re- luctant 39' who refused to. answer questions before the House Unam- erican Activities Committee in Ha- waii last year.
 Ernest Arena without any pos sible doubt is or was a Communist and the hearings conducted by the House committee in Hawaii last year proved that beyond question" Butler asserted.
 C. ,. His appointment is indicative of the general laxity in the atti- tude of too many people in Hawaii toward the whole Communist ques- tion."

Maryland, which this year faces
its greatest need for March of Dimes
funds, is one of the nations leading
polio research centers, it was pointed
out this week by former U. S. Sena-
tor George L. Radcliffe, the state
chairman for the March of Dimes.
Mr. Radcliffe, announcing a $4,787
grant to the Johns Hopkins Univer-

that 1899, 1888. 97-just shy of mill
lion dollars = has been spent in
Maryland alone by the National
Foundation for Infantile Paralysis in
its fight against the dreaded crippler
of children and adults alike Most
of this sum has been expended at
Johns Hopkins and a small amount
has been spent at the Children's Hos
pital School in Baltimore, which
during the past year was almost
overwhelmed by the number of polio
victims who needed disqualification.
Mr.. Radcliffe revealed that re-
search grants use up about 10 per
cent of the National Foundations
funds and that almost 80 per cent
goes directly to the care of patients.

years of heavy polio incidence, with
