LAKE SUCCESS, N. Y, Mar. il
The United Nations has given
up hopes Of unifying Korea by
driving Communists out of the
northern half of the country.
In series of informal meetings
the decision has been made to
refuse to give Gen. Macarthur
authority to bomb Manchuria or
furnish him enough troops to
overwhelm Chinese Communists in
North Korea.
Without additional authority for
more troops, the U. N. army is
expected to do no more than hold
its position somewhere around the
38th Parallel while efforts are
made for peace settlement.
United States diplomats refuse
to confirm these decisions which
other delegates discuss more
openly. The Americans say they
could not be expected to do 50
since 1t would furnish the Chinese
Reds with military information.
1t. Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway's
statement that the U. N. will have
accomplished its purpose by clear
ing the Communists out of South
Korea was made, it is stated, with
approval of the peace oyganiza-
tion. t4s.
The question of what can be
Salvaged from the Korea war re-
mains undetermined.
The moss realistic observers
here doubt that Russia and China
will permit the U. N. to supervise
the consolidation of the two halves
of Korea. They expect the politi-
cal situation to be returned to
the status quo of last June 25.
Some still have hopes that the
Communist bloc will permit q
joining of the North and South
under the direction of Asian nell
trails. The catch may come wher
Russia insists that the Chinese
Reds play a part, along with In
dia, the Philippines and Other
countries, in directing elections.
The great majority at the
United Nations still oppose any
military operation that would pro.
duce a general war in Asia with

Corning Proposes Use
OF RecreationaI Areas
As Hospitals in Crisis

Medical civil defense officials to-
day were studying a proposal by
School Supt. Hobart M. Corning
which would designate more than
100000 square feet of recreational
areas in District schools for use as
emergency hospitals.
DR.. Corning made the offer
subject to approval by the Board
of Educational a meeting yes
terday of officials of the medical
and health services unit of the
District civil defense organization.
Members of the unit have COM
planned that their program has
been held up because of failure of
top officials to designate space for
mobilization centers and emer-
gency hospitals.
Sees Plan Adequate for Need.
DR.. Corning said designation of
the recreation areas-such as
gymnasiums and auditoriums-
would be adequate to handle
medical defense needs, and still
allow operation of the schools in
case of emergency.
He said he would be anxious to
operate as many schools as pos
sible after an air attack, in order
to keep the children off The
streets.
DR.. Corning said the medical
officials had hoped 10 have some
9 or 10 schools designated as
emergency hospitals, to serve if
regular hospitals were destroyed.
He said the recreational area
space should be sufficient to take
care of the problem.
Space Release Power Authorized.
He pointed out that he and C.
Melvin Sharpe, School Board
president, had been authorized by
the board to give up whatever
space is needed in case of an
emergency. However, at this
time. any designation of space for
future needs would have to be
passed on by the board. DR.. Corn
ing said he was sure the board
would cooperate if medical off,
cials approved his plan.

said the research and establish

One reason those tours have
not yet been resumed is said to
be the extreme shortage of hous-
ing caused by the German bonn
bardments and the Red Army's
own "scorched earth" policy dur
ing World War II.
The reopening of Soviet borders
to foreign visitors, even on this
limited scale, would, of course,
serve to combat the stigma of
Iron Curtain" cast by Winston
Churchill in 1946 and which the
Soviet propaganda services have
been trying to disprove for five
years, without much success.

nearby Leverkusen fled to a war

Walls cracked at Neueharr,

The quake was recorded as be-
tween 9:46 am, London time
(4:46 am, EST and 9:47 am.
This corresponded roughly with
the time recorded in Brussels. The
Dutch tremor was recorded at
$50 am. and was felt in the

Huge seas pounded the south

had to stand off Cherbourg today.

From all published reports to

appears to fit into the pattern of
a small earthquake which oc-
CURED in a somewhat unusual
place and did relatively little
damage.
An average of about six quakes
a year can be expected in West
ern Europe, it was explained. Very
rarely do any attain great propor-
tions-the best known being the
Lisbon earthquake followed by a
tidal wave nearly 200 years ago.
An atomic bomb blast would
create conditions similar to those
of an earChquake-but the shock
waves of about the most powerful
bomb easily conceivable would be
very close to those of an earth
quake minimum. The possibility
that the present quake may have
been caused by a super-powerful
bomb is not entirely ruled out, but
oPPCo4o CAC4 ClAAcAy 1clllOIS.
The effects of the shock were
noted without instruments over an
area of about 10000 miles. This
is about what would be expected as
a relatively small earth shock. A
really big one may cause tremors
over million square miles.
The tremors were not noted on
the Coast and Geodetic Survey III
strument here. This, it is ex-
planned, probably was due to the
minor earth waves due to last
nights heavy wind.
There is no easy explanation of
the high winds following the
shock. Neither, from timing and
intensity, do they fit into the pic
ture of winds which might follow
an atomic bomb explosion. They
were probably, it is explained,
quite co-incidental.

Johnston and Labor
Are Reported Agreed
On New Wage Setup
By james Y. Newton

Economic Stabilizer Eric A.
Johnston and organized labor
were reported agreed today on a
new wage control setup, but the
task of winning the assent of in
dustry still confronted Mr.. John
ston.
Two big organizations of in
dustry and business indicated they
would make known their views to-
day on basis for re-establishing
the Wage Sterilization Board,
which has been imperative since
labor members resigned four
weeks ago. The organizations
were the United States Chamber
of Commerce and the National
Association of Manufacturers.
Meanwhile, from Key West,
Fla, came word that President
Truman was studying major revi-
Sions IN the law under which the
defense program operates, as we'll
as proposals to bring labor back
into the defense organization.
Bill Expected Next Month.
The President was expected to
send to Congress early next
month new basic mobilization
bill which would include revised
provisions for increasing produc-
ton, bringing prices and wages
under tighter control, and a tight
rent control program. The present
defense program law expires June
30.
Housing Expediter Tighe E.
Woods said top officials have
agreed to a recent control pro-
gram broader and stronger in
some respects than the law in
effect during World War II.
The staff of Mobilization Direc-
tor Charles E. Wilson, along with
that of Mr.. Johnston, was work.
ing on the new controls legisla-
ton.
Basis for Withdrawal.
A major reason for withdrawal
of labor representatives from de-
tense agencies was the charge of
union leaders that the administra-
ton and Congress were attempt
ing to control wages while allowing
prices and rents to rise higher.
Actually, Mr.. Johnston and la
Dor, represented by the United
Labor Policy Committee, have
been in substantial agreement for
some time as to the type of new
machinery for wage stabilization.
Under this agreement the wage
board would be reconstructed as
an 18-member panel instead of
the old nine-member board, and
1t would be given authority to set
tie disputes affecting the defense
program. These would include la
bor- management disputes arising
over wage control policy and So
called national emergency" dis
putes referred to the board by
the President.
Industry Objects.
In addition the board would be
brought into other controversies
when the disputing parties asked
for it..
Industry has objected strongly
to a single board handling both
wage policy and disputes. Mr..
Johnston has been working hard
for weeks on an acceptable COM
promise.
But the argument over wage
control machinery has been only
one phase of labor's dissatisfac-
ton with the defense program.
Others have been soaring living
costs and a major quarrel with
Mr.. Wilson.
