Bombing Manchuria
BY the Assoeiofed Press

BOSTON. April 13.-Chairman

general war is fundamentally no
different from what is going on
now and I don't see how bomb

The G. o. P. head said that, in
his opinion, the Arrny's purpose is
to carry out political objectiveS
which are decided on by the ad-
ministration. But the strategy to
obtain those objectives is a mill
tary matter and should be left to
the military commanders, he said.
He said President Truman's dis
missal of Gen. Macarthur was

MOSCOW, April 13.-The Lit

Accounts Of American losses
differed. The Far East Air Forces
said no planes were lost. but two
Super Forts were damaged and
had to land in Korea.
The Air Force announced in
Washington, however, that two
United States B129s were shot
down by Red jets. 1t said sew
eral other American bombers were
damaged. but were able to land
at Allied bases.
Eighty MICS attacked 115
American F-86 and F-S4 jets
escorting 80 B-29 bombers. The
bombers were pounding the Ko-
rean side of the Yalu River rail-
road bridge between Antung
Manchuria, and Sinuiju, Korea.
During the fight the Super Forts
dropped 300 tons Of bombs on their
target. It was the biggest single
bombing of a bridge by Super
Forts in this war.
Gen. Stratemeyer said the Reds
are hastily building and improv-
ing series of airfields as stepping

Some Red planes may penetrate

Proposal 10 Dredge
Potomac lIll for Scrap
BY J. L. MichoeI
Star Stoff cayYesnondent

COLONIAL BEACH. Va, April
13.-Maryland and Virginia wa
termen, aroused over a steel COM
pany's plan to dredge the lower
Potomac for scrap metal, have
appealed to Governors Of both
States to block the project which
they claim will destroy the rivers
best oyster beds.
The proposal presented by the
Bethlehem Steel Co. to the Wash
ington office of the Army Engi-
neer Corps calls for recovery OF
spent projectiles from the river
bed between Swami Point and
Blackstone Island.
The area, practically all oyster
bottom. includes three Of the
Potomac's potentially fruitful ma
tural oyster bars. They are Swami
Point. Cobb Island and Sleeps
head.
A public notice sent out by the
Engineer Office said approximate
ly 100000 cubic yards Of river
bottom are to be removed by
bucket or hydraulic dredge.
The Engineer Corps, concerned
chiefly with the effect Of the work
on navigation, scheduled a pub
lie hearing for April 9. It was
postponed indefinitely at the re-
quest of naval officials. who asked
time to study the proposal.
The Navy presumably is in
terested because the metal scrap.
needed in the Nations defense
program. is the residue of pro-
jectiles fired from guns at the
Dahlgren (Va.) proving grounds.
Counsel Protests.
John E. Mayo, Colonial Beach
attorney who is secretary and
general counsel of the Potomac
River Oystermen's Association,
protested on behalf of watermen.
In a letter to Gov. McKeldin of
Maryland, Mr.. Mayo said:
Performance of this work will
utterly destroy the best and most
prolific natural oyster beds in the
Potomac River and will seriously
interfere with net fishing and
Grabbing"
A spokesman for the Engineer
Corps said yesterday that the
Maryland Tidewater Fisheries
Commission has asked that no
dredging be permitted in oyster
areas.
He added that no action will
be taken on the steel company's
request until the Navy has de-
cided its position. If Navy OBJ
jectS, he said, the permit will be
denied. If it does not. watermen
and other interested persons will
be asked to make their objections
known at public hearing.
The Engineer spokesman de-
clined to estimate how much scrap
metal is believed recoverable from
the river but indicated that it is
probably "huge" quantity.
AS an alternate to the dredg-
ing plan, it was learned. the steel
company has considered the idea
OF attempting to lift the metal
with magnets. II this does not
work, dredges would be used.
Because of the comparatively
small area to be searched, the
Engineer spokesman voiced belief
that oyster beds would not be in
Jured, but Mr.. Mayo discounted
this assertion.

Gen. Stratemeyer said "the milf
tary solution to such an air
threat is to destroy the enemy

the rear areas. Such technique is
not permissible here and there
fore our only recourse is to blunt
the attack once it is launched"
But" he added. "blunting q

inconclusive. We must be con-

Plans 10 Send 5000
More Troops 10 Korea
BY N. A.sosia,ed Press

LONDON, April 13.-Britain
and her Commonwealth partners.
apparently worried by American
criticism of their Korean war
effort, soon may send a few
thousand more troops to the bat
tlefront.
Official sources said yesterday
that Britain, Canada, Australia
and New Zealand are planning to
set up a combined Common
wealth infantry division of around
10000 men.
They now have about $4,000
troops in Korea, serving In two
brigades as part Of the United
Nations land forces. These would
become part Of the division. About
5000 more men would be sent.
In addition, Britain has about
10000 sailors in the ships of her
Far Eastern fleet patrolling Ko-
rean waters.
Canadian Troops Training.
(This dispatch does not des-
ignate where the 5000 fresh men
will come from, but Canada has
1900 men in training at Fort
Lewis, Wash. and 5000 to 5000
Of these have been earmarked
for Korean duty.)
The first moves to step up the
Commonwealth manpower in Ko-
rea began before the row over Gen.
MacArthur's policies blew up.
Even then. Britain was under
some fire from American critics,
who charged she was dragging her
feet. Now. the British fear one
effect Of the dismissal Of Gen.
Macarthur which they approved

of Britain's Far Eastern policies.
Differ Over Red China.
The main difference between
Britain and the United States in
the Far East is over China. Britain
has recognized the Chinese Com
munist regime and urged that it
be given a seat in the United
Nations. The United States still
recognizes Chang Kai-shek's Ma
tionalist regime on Formosa as
the legitimate government Of
China and has opposed giving Red
China voice in the U. N.
Home Secretary Chuter EIDE
