House Unit Expands
Ball Probe 10 Cover
Sports Broadcastinq
Proposed Bills Called
Unfair to Millions
Of TeIevision Fans

Chairman Celler of the House
Monopoly subcommittee today
agreed to broaden the baseball
investigation to cover all sports
broadcasting angles. Several SUBJ
committee members had protested
that the proposed bills to help
baseball could kill some small
radio stations and deprive mil
lions of fans of watching the
World Series via television.
The decision to enlarge the
antitrust inquiry came as the
subcommittee wound up the first
phase of it's hearings with ar
appeal from Representative Her.
long, Democrat, of Florida, fol-
legislation to exempt baseball
from monopoly curbs.
Mr.. Herlong is the author of ont
of three House bills providing tina
antitrust laws shall not apply tt
organized professional sports en-.
terpriSeS or to acts in the conduct
of SUCH enterprises"
Sees End to Suits.
/ Representative MCCULLOUGH, Re.
publican, of Ohio said he coule
see where a radio stations life
might depend on whether it coulc
broadcast games.
| Representative Willis, Demo
crat, of Louisiana said if the leg
islation we're passed as it is now
written it would knock out all the
antitrust suits brought by the
radio industry against organized
baseball and now pending in the
courts.
Mr.. McCulloch said the bills
might involve the right of SO
million people to see the World
Series"
Representative Wilson, Demo
crat, of Texas said he thought the
bills go too far, although he took
the view that the reserve clause
should be protected. The reserve
clause, which ties j ball player to
the first club that signs him, has
been the main issue in the cur
rent probe.
Hearing Set for Fall.
Mr.. Celler, in response to sug-
geStions from Representatives
Willis. McCulloch and Wilson
said that when hearings resume in
the fall witnesses will be calico
from radio, television, newsreels
and the Federal Communications
Commission to discuss the broad
casting angle.
In his sum-up Mr.. Celler form
ally announced that the hearings
will resume in the fall after the
World Series.

Dispersal Program
Urges New Industries
To Shun Central Area,
NSRB Plun to Include
Tax Incentives, Priorities
For Complying Plants

/ A program designed to locate
new and expanded industries out
side critical bomb target areas was
announced today by the National
Security Resources Board.
1t would include favored treat
ment with respect to Government
contracts and priorities for those
plants which locate away from
central industrial areas.
The new dispersal policy will
include agencies of the Federal
Government, Jack Gorrie, acting
board chairman, said. He en-
phasized that it covers only new
industries, or those which are
building new plants, and new Gov
eminent buildings.
No Bodily" Moves.
1--WE don't intend to pick up an
industry bodily and move it into
the country" he said.
Mr.. Gorrie said the distance
from industrial centers need not
be great. 1t could be as little as
10 or 20 miles, he added.
Incentives offered for locating
industry away from critical target
areas are certificates of necessity
for accelerated tax amortization,
ALLEGATION of critical materials for
construction, defense loans, and
defense contracts.
The policy statement declared
in part:
ut is recognized that the major
centerS of industrial production
have become highly integrated
and that a part of their efficiency
is due to their concentration. A
dispersion policy to be effective
and realistic must not be. allowed
to cripple the efficiency and pro-
Iductivity of our established in
dustries. Our policy, there
fore, must be directed mainly to-
ward the dispersal of new and
expanding industries"
The policy statement called at
tention to report issued by the
board in September, 1945, stress
ing that heavy concentration of
industrial plants were inviting
targets, and that plants separated
in space would better survive an
atomic attack.
New Factors Listed.
New factors strengthening that
position, the statement added, in
clude:
/. Evidence that Russia has had
a successful atomic explosion.
2. The probability that a strong
enemy air attack could penetrate
any defenses.
3. The outbreak of hostilitles
in Asia, indicating the semi-peace
conditions under which the world
is living.
Dispersal of Government agen-
cies has been discussed here for
several years. A bill calling for
erecting of five major Government
buildings on the perimeter of
Washington has been pigeonholed
by Congress,

House Takes Up
Military Project
Fund Measure
Congress Speeds Work
On Big Backlog of
Major Business
By J. A. O'Leory

The House prepared to act to-
day on $5.7 billion military con-
Istruction program, after giving
overwhelming approval to the $50
billion defense appropriation bill
for the current year yesterday.
AS Congress showed signs OF
moving faster on its backlog OF
major business, these other steps
were taken in the last "a hours:
l. The House Foreign Affairs
Committee voted out a revamped
version of the administration S
$85 billion foreign aid program
The total was cut to $7,848, $780,
000, and the entire program
military and economic-was put
under a single administrator, with
cabinet rank. outside the State
Department.
2. The House beat off, 131 to
"a. a Republican move to put a
Subdivision limit on the number
of troops the United States could
assign to Gen. Eisenhower's North
Atlantic defense army. The rider
was offered to the big defense
money bill.
| 3. The joint Senate Foreign
Relations-Armed Services Com
mittee ended hearings yesterday
on the foreign aid bill, with a
warning from Gen. Omar N
Bradley. chairman of the joint
Chiefs of Staff. that any cut ir
the military portion would leave
some North Atlantic defense units
inadequately equipped.
Separate Fund Bill Due.
Both the $5.7 billion military
construction bill being debated ir
the House today and the $7.8 bill
lion foreign aid measure voted
out of House committee last night
are only authorizations. The
funds are due to be approved in
separate money bill before ad-
journment, however. and will
bring to nearly $40 billion the
total this Congress will be making
available for use at home and
abroad to head off another world
war.
The House added riders to the
big defense bill yesterday to re.
lease many reservists now in uni
form and to discourage middle
aged officers from retiring.
One amendment calls for the
release by November 80 of volun.
Iteer and inactive reservists now
in uniform, if they served a veal
during World War II and another
year since the Korean war started
The second rider would cut of
the retirement pay of men who
leave the service during the next
year for reasons other than age
or disability.
Representative Van Zandt, Re-
publican, of Pennsylvania, who
offered both amendments, eSti-
mated about $4,000 would be af-
Ifected by the reservist plan. Or
ganized reserve would not be
affected by the release clause.
Release Bill Adopted.
Chairman Vinson of the Armed
Services Committee objected to
the release of the resrvists, saying
1T would disrupt Army. Navy and
Air Force units in Korea. 1t was
adopted 1872 to 102.
The military construction bill
includes authorization to build a
chain of overseas bases girdling
Russia.
Most OF the construction pro-
gram is for the Air Force, which
would receive authority to 60
ahead with 1898, SOB in domestic
construction, $415, 100000 outside

Truce Hits Snaq
With Each Side
Silent 7 Hours
Neither Team Budees
From Firm Stand
On Buffer Zone
By the Associuied Press

q. N. ADVANCE HEADQUAR-
TIERS. Korea, Aug. 1O.-Dead-
locked United Nations and
Communist truce negotiating dele
cations sat for two hours and II
minutes in dead silence today,
each waiting for the other to
change his position.
The unprecedented silence was
precipitated, the U. N. COM
mander said, when the Com
munists refused to talk about
anything except a buffer zone
located where they want it.
Vice Admiral C. Turner Joy,
chief U. N. delegate, proposed
several alternatives to break the
deadlock. Then he waited for
North Korean 1t. Gen. Nam II,
head of the Red delegation, to
reply. But Nam said nothing.
131 Minutes of Silence.
For l31 minutes. nobody spoke
The air was full of electricity"
said Brig. Gen. William P.
NuckolS, official U. N. command
spokesman.
He said Gen. Nam fldgeted in
nervous embarrassment, smoked
cigarettes necessarily, drummed on
the green-topped conference table
with his fingers or his cigarette
lighter, and glanced repeatedly at
his wrist watch.
Occasionally he received notes
from staff officers behind him. But
he said nothing.
The other four Communist gen.
erals held occasional whispered
conferences most of the time,
Gen. Nuckols said. They remained
impasSive.
Appeared Bored at Times.
Admiral Joy sat calmly writing
notes in detached sort of
fashion" He appeared patient,
sometimes bored. Gen. Nuckols
said.
The admiral finally broke the
silence.
The armiStice talks appeared
to be at their most critical point
since they began month ago
The U. N. communique indicated
the tension ridden conference
might be nearing a breaking point.
The Allies described the position
of the Communists as "adamant. :"
They held to this position
throughout the four-hour- and-12-
minute session.
For ten consecutive sessions del
egates have been stuck on the
question of where to create buff
fer zone.
Tries to Break Deadlock.
Admiral Joy tried to break the
deadlock by proposing that nego-
tiators temporarily pass over this
question and go on to the next
point.
That deals with concrete ar
rangements for the realization Of
military armistice and the re-
sultant cease-fire." Gen. Nam re-
fused.
Despite the complicated dead
lock, delegates scheduled another
session for IL am. tomorrow g
pm. Friday EDIT.
The U. N. communique said
the Red delegation refused ada
mainly" to talk about D pres
ent battle lines as possible arm
istice demarcation line, 90 a
buffer zone anywhere but on the
18th parallel or 90 any other
subject.
Silent More Than Hours.
The communique continued:
THE blanket remuneration by
the Communists came after an
historical, unprecedented Q hours
and IL minute period of silence
on the part of Gen. Nam II dur
ing which he failed to respond
to Admiral joys reaffirmation of
his complete willingness to dis
cuss % a demilitarized zone To-

TIE Permanent Effect Depends Upon The People

Holmes County's Sheriff Ellis E. Wynn has, by all
reT made conscientious and consistent effort through
SOL ur and gambling to curb the wideopen and fragrant
law violations which had been IN that county Tor
years
That the majority of Holmes County citizens are
aw-abding and favor law enforcement has been
repeatedly demonstrated in elections and through grand
curry actions.
Despite these facts however the awless elements
I'm the county, the liquor sellers and gamblers have had
considerable influence which, with the services of able law
ye has given them protection enough to prevent their
failing and the closing of their establishments
To cleanup the county Sheriff Wynn finally found
N to ask Gov. Wright for of the National
Guard.
He had the honesty and the political courage to make
fine request, and Governor Wright honored it.
We congratulate both on this fact.
The result was series of simultaneous raids on Fl
kDs and the arrest of % Saturday with the seizure
Of large quantities of tax-paid and moonshine whskey
ssd gambling equipment
This again places the issue squarey up to the decent
andabding citizens of Holmes County. 1t again places on
chem responsibility of supporting their lawenforcement
nfcers just with words and resolutions but with in
ents and convictions grand jurors and trial Jurors
If, as grand jurors and trial jurors they thus sup
this campaign to cleanup the county and to keep
n then the campaign will succeed the effects of these
ss will be lasting and Holmes County will set example
1 oher counties and communities in which vice and crime
have Hourshed under shady protection despite the fact
thai most OF the people opposed it.
IT. on the other hand, through lazness and lack of
fnter through unwingness to jurors, through
pahy the good people of Holmes County permit the guilty
prosecutions win accquittas by hand picked
rc then these raids will futile and this campaign
far decency and awenforcemen will achieve only tempo
Exry results.
The issue is up to the good people of Holmes County.
The raids made statewide news What the people and
officials of the county do as follow up" will be watched
with statewide interest
