$ The Travellers Notebook ~
By Jacques FutreIIe, Jr.
The Stor's Travel Editor

Airline users can be broken up
into a number of broad divisions.
Among them are those passengers
who think first of travel on a IA
vorite airline and tailor their trips
to fit flight, as opposed to those
who think primarily of con-
venience of departure arrival times
and fly readily enough on any line.
Being competing businesses, the
separate airlines seek to identify
themselves in passengers mind
for efficient, convenient and
friendly service, and thus build up
a loyal clientele. So it is not in
the cards that airlines will pro-
mote information that would
throw a ticket purchase, willy
nilly, to parallelling, rival line.
This is one of the basic consid-
erations in the inability of air
lines to agree to form a joint,
central ticket offce in downtown
Washington. There are times,
however. when the thought of
public service by the airline in
duStry as a whole outweighs the
narrow interest of certain line,
and information is disseminated
to promote flying on any line, al
though the others may offer rival
services.
In Convenient FOrm-In mind
is a Washington-New York con-
solidated airline schedule prepared
and issued by the local ticket office
of American Airlines, for The con-
veniences of those wishing to fly
northward as far as Boston, Mass.
The mimeographed, two-page sheet
is published on the first of every
month, and lists services into the
area by three lines, American,
Eastern and National. 1t is con-
venient information sheet to have.
The consolidated schedule dated
July l shows that, in a 24-hour
period, American flies 40 planes
from National Airport to LaGuard-
ia Field and three to Newark. N. j.;
Eastern has 10 to LaGuardia and
IT to Newark, and National has
three to Idlewild and one to New
ark.
Air travellers with a preference
for certain types of planes can
easily pick from the second column
the flight they want. Choices in
clude DC-3s, DC-4s. Convairs, DC
IS and Consultations Prominently
designated are through planes to
various points, such as Boston,
Hartford. Conn. and Providence,
R. I. Nonstop planes to Boston
and New York also are readily
identifiable.
Other points listed on the sched-
ule, with arrival times, are Balti-
more. Wilmington. Del, Atlantic
City, N. j.. and Philadelphia.
Like other schedules the
monthly consolidated sheet is SUBJ
ject to obsolescence in minor in
stances as changes are made on
short order, but the airline IN
dustry these days is disposed, as
far as possible. to confine major

Credit Cards Taking a cue
from hotel associations, hotel
oil companies and others,
United Motor Courts is easing into
a system of issuing credit cards.
The system was devised after
of study of various credit
systems, and is represented as a
composite plan. 1t is the an
nounced intention of the UMC
organization to select "the best
risks throughout the country" to
break in, as far as possible, a no.
loss system for the individual
operators.
Applications for credit cards will
be checked by major oil company
also operating a credit system and,
in addition, by the Denver head
quarters of the UNC. Briefly, the
cards Will entitle the bearer to
write a check for his room rent.
At his discretion, motor court
operator affiliated with UMC may
cash checks for amounts above the
bare room charge.
Not all member courts will be
compelled to honor the cards. 1t
is anticipated that the system will
SNOWFALL into a nationwide serv-
ice. Courts honoring the cards will
be designated in a directory of all
UMC courts.

Claims Reds Have Murdered Thousands of JUN Prisoners In Korean War Atrocities

PUSAN, Korea, Nov. 14-tR,- The head of the US. Eighth Army's legal section today said Reds have killed at least 5,790 United Nations soldier prisoners about $500 of them Americans and some 250,00O Korean civilians in atrocities since the start of the war.
 Col. James M. Hanley of Seattle, chief of the Armys Judge Advocate section, said in a statement that 200 captured US. Marines were killed in a single day = last Dec 10 near Sinhung in northeast Korea.
 Sinhung is about 20 miles north of Jungnam. Last December rem nants of the US. First Marine Di- vision and the US. Seventh Infan- try Division were pulling back to- ward Hungnam port in bitter retreat.
 Hanley said the Marines were killed on order of the commander of the 23rd Regiment, S1st Chi nese Division.
 He said IT Turkish war prisoners were slain by Chinese Reds May IS, 1851, near Yanggu and l2 others on April 10 near Yonchon.
 Hanley said the count of military prisoners slain did not include South Korean troops. He gave no esti- mate of these, but indicated the number was about twice that of other LIN. soldiers killed by Red captors.
 Civilian men, women and child ren were slaughtered, Hanley said, without trial or even formal death sentence.
 He said 700 civilians were driven into the horizontal shaft of gold mine near Haeju, 80 miles south- east of the North Korean capital of Pyongyang, on Sept. 26, 1850, bound and gagged and dropped down a vertical shaft. They were left to die, he said.
 Four hundred more were given the same treatment on Oct. 9, 1850, Hanley said. Three days earlier, he said, still another 400 were bound, gagged and buried alive in three big holes at Haeja airport.
 Hanley said his statement had nothing to do with the cease-fire negotiations" at Panmunjom.
 He accused the Reds of making sham of the Geneva Convention on treatment of prisoners of war The United Nations, he said, cared for the Reds it captured fin com plete accordance with the Geneva agreement"
 None of the Communist war priS- oners have been killed by us," he added.

 To Juneau Spruce

SAN RAFAEL, Calif., Nov. 14-R --The right of the Juneau Spruce Corporation of Juneau, Alaska, 10 collect a $750000 judgment against the International Longshoremen's and Warehousemen's (ILWU) Union and it's local at Juneau was upheld in Marin County Superior Court yesterday.
 The judgment. by District Judge George w. Folta, of Juneau, orig inally was made in May, 1949, after the court found the ILWU used coercive tactics and picketing in a work stoppage that closed the ccr- poration's mill.
 The firm had sued under the Taft Hartley Act after jurisdictional fight between the ILWU and the CIO International Woodworkers of America.
 The Marin County ruling, by Judge Jordan L. Martinelli, follows a decision by the Ninth US. Court of Appeals here last May upholding the Alaska judgment.
 The case shifted into the Califor- nia court because the law provides for plaintiff to try to collect in a state court when a federal court decision is in a US. Territory
 The United States Supreme Court agreed to review the damage ver- dict in ruling on Oct. 22.

AIaskans Look Youngeritan Other People

WASHINGTON, Nov. IA = R = Leave it to woman to make this discovery: that Alaskans look younger than other people.
 Mrs. Norma Ruedi Hazeltine, in- formation officer of the Interior De- partment's Bureau of Land Man agement, jotted down the evidence during a tour of the territory last summer and fall.
 She told members of L'Enfant Business and Professional Women's Club here about it, in an address, and referred them for further proof to their clubwomen associates of Anchorage, Cordova, Juneau, Ket- chikan, Kodiak, Petersburg and Fairbanks.
 'Men and women Tn Alaska, even the old timers, do not show their age by many years" she declared.
 "The people Of Alaska, especially the women, have found that some thing which many of us on the out side have lost or are in danger of losing the joy of living through worthwhile achievement.
 Gall it a philosophy of life, a reason for life, or what you will, it seems to act as fountain of youth. '
 Mrs. Hazeltine said labor costs are so high in Alaska that it is fashionable for women both in town and country to do their own work. She especially admired the farm women.
 "These are women of courage, for it takes a great deal of that con- modity to make go of homestead ing in Alaska" she said.
 everywhere I went l found people with a pioneering spirit which even now is providing the impetus and the strength for future 49th state"

 "There must, for the welfare of our country, be a change in na-
 tional administration, but if this Is to be. the Republican party
 must present definite construc-
 tive and workable program for the
 nation.
 We can not hope to win solely
 on the mistakes of the present 20 year administration, many though
 they arc.'
 The third term governor agreed to head favorite son ticket of na- tional convention delegates in Cali fornia's primaries next June.
 T am giving thought to what ex- tent I shall urge my candidacy in other states before the convention" he said in the statement he read slowly to newsmen.

 who has campaigned in the state
 as Progressive, thus became the
 second presidential prospect of
 either party to declare himself.

Truce Talks May Be Called of

MUNSAN, Korea, Nov. 14-tPt- Communist negotiations challenged the allies today to agree to cease fire line in Korea now or break off the truce talks.
 Brig. Gen. William P Nuckols, of- ficial LIN spokesman, said the chal- lenge was ignored in welter of words that marked today's five hour and five minute arnistice ses- sion.
 He said the challenge was made by Chinese Maj. Gen. Hsieh Fang, member of the Reds twc-man sub- committee.
 Hsiehs challenge came during a wrangIe over whether a military demarcatiOn line and buffer zone shall be established now, as the Reds insist, or whether the ques- ton shall be postponed until other armistice questions are settled.
 The allies refuse to agree form ally to a line now, beacuse they say that would restablish an immed- fate cease-fire. This, in turn, they say, would take military pressure off the Reds and enable them to stall on other armistice terms.
 Hsieh called this fantastic talk
 "If that is the course you choose to follow" he said, then why not stay away"
 Nuckols released other quotations from the Red delegates to show
 l. They want to end the fight ing TOW, in the air and on the sea as well as on the ground. A LIN communique said this became "unmistakably clear"
 2. The Reds say there will be no armistice unless the allies agree to setting up military de- , marcation line and buffer zone now.
 3. The Reds agree that estab- fishing a buffer zone now would mean cease fire in fact"
 4. The Reds conceded that once established, a military demarca- ton line should not be changed later.
 Nuchols said the language of ne- gotiations at today's meeting-the longest unbroken session they've yet held-was sharper than it has ever heen. Another meeting was schedul- ed for tomorrow.
