WITH UNITED STATES Sd
DIVISION, Korea, Mar. 5.-The
odds are different, but the Chinese
Communists are not.
They are exhibiting the same
fighting ways they showed against
the japanese and later against the
Chinese Nationalists. And all OF
the mare borrowed from the Rus
slams, who trained and now ad-
wise their leaders. says Maj. Gen
Robert H. (Shorty) Soule.
The general left China only last
May after serving as military at
tache to the Communists. Pre-
sumably because he knew toe
much about them and their tao
tics. they didn't want him to
depart and held him under house
arrest for a time.
The stocky, cocky Soule now is
fighting commander of the United
States Sd Division.
Even though the Chinese have
vastly superior manpower in
Korea, whereas they were out
numbered by their former foes,
they are sticking close to the
principles they have always used
in warfare. Gen. Soule said.
"As Mao TZe-tung, the Red
leader, has said, the Communists
always attempt to mass their
forces so they outnumber the
foe five and six to one," Gen.
Soule said.
Even when the opposition had
superior overall numbers the
Reds probed for a weak point
and then threw overwhelming
masses at that single point. If
they were stopped, they with
drew to regroup.
These are exactly the tactics
the Russians used against the
Germans in World War II. They
attacked in deep columns and
showed new troops in as fast as
the front ones were moved down.
These also are the tactics of
Communist armies all over the
world. That's because Red armies
have no regard for human life.
Both the Chinese and Russian
Reds take terrific casualties with
their sea wave tactics but the
number of men lost means moth
ing to them" :.
Gen. Soule pointed out that the
Chinese tactic Of hitting the enc
my while he Is on the move is an
other Of the basic principles ex-
pounded by Mao long before the
Korean war began. It is being
used here.
The general has distributed to
his officers a manual of Russian
field tactics in which it also is
listed as a basic principle.
"They accomplish this by infil-
trating forces behind the line to
cut lines of supply and commune
cation" Gen. Soule said. when
this Is accomplished, the unit has
to move. That's the time the Reds
want to hit.

Defense Costs Studied
Further on Question
OF Troops for Europe
By J. A. O'Eeory

Pentagon budget officials were
called into a closed session of the
Senate Foreign Relations and
Armed Services Committees to-
day in connection with the pro-
posed assignment of four more
American divisions to the defense
Of Western Europe.
Senator Connally, Democrat. OF
Texas. presiding over the two COM
mittees, hopes to bring out this
week a resolution indorsing the
troops policy, but some committee
members want more information
on overall defense costs before
they vote.
Assistant Secretary of Defense
w. j. Mcneil has been asked to
give the committees the latest
estimates on the defense budget
for the next year.
Byrd Asks About Costs.
The committees were told last
week that for the first year it will
cost $248 million more to keep
the four divisions in Europe than
If they remained in this country.
The second year the additional
cost would drop to Sill million.
Senator Byrd. Democrat, of
Virginia. a member Of the Armed
Services Committee. wants more
information, however. on what
the total defense budget for the
year starting July l is likely to
be. The Virginian has heard re-
ports, not yet confirmed. that the
SAL billion figure used by Presi-
dent Truman in his January budg-
ct message as tentative es-
innate of the defense budget did
not cover the cost of the Korean
war, If it should still be going on
after June 80.
Meanwhile, there were reports
that Gen. Bradley, chairman Of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff. told the
Senators last week that the next
80 days may bring vital decisions
on the integrated European de-
tense force. being developed I'M
der the supreme command OF
Gen. Eisenhower.
Speedy Senate Action Urged.
For that reason he is under
stood to have urged speedy Senate
action on the proposed resolution,
approving American participa-
ton in the international defense
force.
Some Senators believe the issue
should be acted on by Congress
rather than by the Senate alone,
but Gen. Bradley is said to have
pointed out that Gen. Eisen-
hower's efforts to get early CO.
operation from the other North
Atlantic treaty nations might be
weakened If the House had to
repeat the hearings just held by
the Senate.
Some House members said over
the week end that they expect
the troops for-Europe issue to be
raised on the floor of the House
at some stage of this session. They
pointed out that at least three
major bills are coming up, on
any one of which a troops-for-
Europe amendment could be Of
fered. These bills are the Sc
lective Service expansion measure,
the renewal of the foreign mill
tary aid authorization law and the
foreign aid appropriation bill.

Farmers Urged To
Step Up Production

Recognizing the need of in
creased production of farm conn
modities in preparation for de

Wright's proclamation of April
as Mississippi Farm Mobilization
month, H. L. Nichols, chairman of
the County Agricultural Mobili-
cation committee, informs that
the Holmes goal for 1851 is $4,000
acres, and urges cotton growers
to plan a program for maximum
production and good management
practices.
Mr.. Nichols advises county
farmers to carry out this pro-
gram with concentrated yields
per acre in all agricultural COM
modities, following the crop pro-
duction guide set up by the agri-
cultural mobilization committee.
Holmes county has an essen
tial part to play in the national
economy and every farmer must
plant in line with good practices
in order for the county to reach
its production goal, Mr.. Nichols
said.

.31st Division Gets
Into Active Swing

FORT JACKSON, S. c., March
% - Combat veterans and young
recruits who donned uniforms for
the first time just month or so
ago are getting into the swing
of the rigorous training of combat
troops as the 31st Infantry Di-
vision goes into its fourth week
of basic training here.
The Dixie Division was called
back into active service on Janu-
airy Is, but the first seven weeks
were spent getting the troops to
camp, processing, and organizing
| the many units of the division.
Commenting on the first three
weeks training, 1t. Col. 0. L. Du-
pre-, division plans and training
officer, said: THE overall train
ing picture is quite satisfactory.
We have a long way to go, but
for the length of time we've been
training the division is doing very
well. The many men we have
show a gratifying aptitude.
Il feel that by the end of train
ing we will have strong, capable
division" Col. Dupre added.
Basic training, which continues
for total of II weeks, transforms
the civilian into a soldier and
teaches him to take care of him
self in the field. Later on, in unit
training Q3 weeks and on COM
bat maneuvers "a weeks) he uses
the know-how he gets in basic
training, while engaging in pla-
toon tactics, firing problems and
combat operations.
But first he must be taught the
art of self-preservation. In basic,
he learns and fires his basic wea-
pons, the Carbine and MI rifle
the Bazooka rocket-launcher and
light machine gun. There is also
instruction in map reading, infil-
tration tactics, first aid and per-
sonal hygiene.
And of course he gets lot of
drilling that makes an Infantry
outfit one of the smartest drill
units in the army.
Physical training is continuous
process. Although there have
been no forced marches as yet,
troops frequently march several
miles to and from their training
areas. Varying the march tempo
with double time and regular
calisthenics also help to build up
their stamina.
