U. SAY5N0 RED(HINAIN
 JAP TREATY

WASHINGTON. April l3 --lR- The United States today turned down proposal by Britain to bring Chinese Communists into the prep arations for a Japanese peace treaty.
 At the same time the State De- partment said that the U. s. posi- tion on Formosa remains unchang- ed. This is to keep the island neutra- lized during the Korean fighting and leave it's final status for future determination.
 Britain proposed 10 days ago that Red China be brought into the treaty negotiations. In memoran- dunn the British proposed also that the treaty provide for the return of Formosa to China.
 This was interpreted by officials here as meaning the Peiping Com munist regime which Britain recog- nizes and the U. S. does not.
 The American rejection was an- nounced by State Department Press Officer Michael J. McDermott.
 Previously it has been announced that Ambassador John Foster Dulles was to leave by plane today for Tokyo to confer with It. Gen. Mat thew B. Ridgway and Japanese leaders on the proposed treaty.
 Flying by the North Pacific route, his plane will stop at the McChord Air Force Base, Wash, to refuel.

HOUSE SAYS ]. 26 MONTHS
 MIL. DUTY

WASHINGTON. April 13 -R- The House stood firm today on proposal to extend the length of military service for draftees from the present 21 months to 26.
 By a vote of 126 to SO, it defeated move by Rep. Shafer (R-Mich) to change the pending draft bill to make the proposed extension "A months. This would have made the length of service the same as pro- posed in the Senate-approved draft bill.
 Earlier, the House beat down an attempt by Shafer to bar the as signment of American troops to any war theater unless the commander there has full right to bomb enemy sources of supply.
 Shafer said such a provision would prevent a repetition of the "MarArthur situation"
 Gen. Douglas Macarthur, just re- lieved of his Far East command, has provoked hot controversy over his contention that he should have au- thority to bomb Red Chinese bases in Manchuria.

MILWAUKEE, April 13, -R- The Milwaukee Journal quotes Sen. Mccarthy GR-Wis) as saying that Treason in the White House" has been accomplished by Bourbon and Benedictine.
 Mccarthy asserted, according to the Journal, that the treason" was accomplished by men who knew how ito get the President cheerful" ," and continued that the dismissal of Gen. MacArthur by the Presi- dent is "A Communist victory won with the aid of Bourbon and Bene- dictine."

CAB RATES WERE SET,
 MILITARY

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, April 13, -tR-A taxicab owner described in Federal District Court yesterday the strong hold he said military officials have over cab operators whose cars haul passengers to and from nearby Fort Richardson and Elmendorf Air Force base.
 The witness was Harry N. Ba- ker, one of the defendants among nine individual cab owners, two taxi companies and two cab as- sociations who are accused by the government of illegally fixing pri- ,es and eliminating competition.
 Provost Marshal Boss
 Every provost Marshal who has ever been out there (Fort Richard ,on) has called a meeting of some Sind to set rates for us," Baker declared.
 He recalled five or six meetings on the post and three or four in town.
 The provost Marshal has the power at the snap of finger to stop us from going on the post" Baker testified. We have about 35 men dependent on us for their livelihood. So when he calls us on the phone and tells us to do some- thing, we ask no question.
 Military Is Boss
 Baker said at one meeting held at the Post in the spring of 1949 T received the worst verbal shel- lacking of my life" because prior so that time he had installed me- ters in cabs without consulting the Military.
 Similarly, Baker testified, You done as you were told and liked it" when city police or the city manager gave instructions. The witness said otherwise they might find themselves out of the cab business.
 City Council Acts
 Baker said he remembered sub- mitting rates to the city council for approval. Although the only ones approved were in-city rates, he said he was certain the council had approved some rates some time during 1946.
 One of the main defense points throughout the trial has been that the council and the military set rates for local cab firms.
 The only other witness yester- day was Winfield Arvin. former city councilman. who said he re- called the council approving cab rates.
 There was no argument about them," he said.

TOKYO pRES5 HAS
 NO JUDGMENT ON

TOKYO, April 13 --tR- The To- kyo press today avoided judgment on the firing of General MacAr- thur.
 Instead, editorials unanimously praised MacArthur's occupation po- licies and expressed regret and sorrow that he would no longer head the U. s. forces in Japan.
 The newspaper Mainchi said the reasons for MacArthur's dismissal were outside of our sphere of comment"
 The editorial praised the General for giving to Japan "a thing en- tirely new to the Japanese--free- dom and respect for the individual" :"
 Like most other papers, Mainchi said U. s. occupation policies would probably change little since the reason for the dismissal of the Gen. eral is not related to the Japan csc issue"

REDS READY
 TO STRIKE
 FROM AIR
Belief Expressed Commun- ists Preparing for Air
 Attack Warning
By Associated Press

Red Chinese withdrawals in North Korea Friday coincided with a warning that they might be pre- pairing the way for heavy air strikes at the advancing Allied ground forces.
 In the wake of history's greatest jet air battle, Lt.s Gen. George E.. Stratemeyer, commander of the U. s. Far East Air Fprces, said the growing Communist air arm might soon start ground attacks.
 In nine and one-half months of war, such Red raids have been linn tied to minor nuisance bombings by one or two planes.
 Allied airmen are forbidden to strike at the Manchurian bases of the Red air force, General Strate- meyer noted in an interview. our only recourse is to blunt the attack once it is launched" he said.
 Warning Given
 Stratemeyer's warning came in the wake of the jet battle.
 Deposed Supreme Commander Gen. Macarthur will fly home to the United States Monday at the height of boiling controversy swirling around his dismissal for veering from administration foreign policies.
 Tokyo dispatches said the Pacific war hero was in a fighting mood and ready to challenge President Truman on the explosive issue of meeting Communist aggression in Asia.
 MacArthur's Policy
 His close aide, Maj. Gen. Court ney B. Whitney. said Macarthur has .never advocated or even con- sidered extension of the war except to the limited degree necessary .. to ping the (Korean) campaign to an honorable end with the mini mum loss of human life"
 Whitney, in a statement of Mac Arthur views, declared:
 "He believes that appeasement would mean not less but infinitely more ultimate bloodshed and, fol- lowing historical precedent, might well carry within the seeds of a ., n,x, vryorJd vuoru
 This fresh exposition of the IT. year-old generals position came as his successor, It. Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway, issued his first general orders taking oyer MacArthur's commands.

rarts. WASHINGTON, April 13 --tR,-- Gen. Douglas Macarthur today was invited to appear before the Senate Armed Services Committee to dis cuss American policies in the Far East.
 Chairman Russell D-Ga) an- nounced the invitation in a state
 ment saying:
 "The American people are en- titled to know all of the facts in volved = except those which cannot
 be released for reasons of security about the clash in policies advo- cated by President Truman and Macarthur in Asia" Macarthur, relieved of his Pacific commands by the President. is ready to fly to the United States. and is expected early next week. He has indicated through an aide his will lingness to appear before Congress
 sional groups.
 The move by the Armed Services Committee assured that the general will have at least limited Congress sional forum for his views. Joint session Wanted Republican leaders in Congress have been insisting that MacArthur
 should be asked to address a joint Senate House session. | Meantime. Macarthur for-P -Presi- dent sentiment was reportedly be- ing renewed and the president of Remington Rand. Inc. confirmed 1 reports that the busted general will
 become an executive with his firm. Senator Mcfarland of Arizona, the Democratic leader. said no final decision on giving Macarthur Congressional hearing has been made. He said he had talked to House Speaker Rayburn of Texas
 about the matter and would con- fer with him again. UUOnIIclAl ACtAVu Others predicted the administxa- tion would bow to the inevitable but would like to keep MacArthur's ap- pearance on an unofficial plane sim I liar to that on which Gen. Dwight l D. Eisenhower recently reported to lawmakers at meeting in the Li-
 brary of Congress.
 Although Eisenhower addressed an official joint session at the close of World War II, it was pointed out that MacArthur is coming home | in the role of commander fired by the President because he per-
 sisted in expressing views contrary to presidential policies. Leave Tokyo Monday Macarthur ana ms family plan to leave Tokyo Monday by plane for San Francisco. They will stop
 overnight in Hawaii. A top aide of the general has said Macarthur is
 willing to appear before Congress. Senate Republicans apparently
 were lined up almost solidly behind
 a resolution by Senator Wherry of
 Nebraska, the COP floor leader for
 a joint meeting.
 {, The resolution had the public support of Democratic Senators Eastland of Mississippi and McCar- ran of Nevada It also had the back | ing of some other DeDmocrats who ] didn't want to be quoted by name Unity Knocked Out :, One of these told a reporter he | thinks the split over Far Eastern policies dramatized by the Presi- dents firing of MacArthur has cut so deep that there can be no hope of unity until President Truman replaces Secretary of State Ache son.
 The senator added that he doesn't expect the President to take any such action.
 The national headquarters of the
 Macarthur for President" commit tee here declared that the furore
 over Macarthur had generated re-
 newed demand for him as presi- dent.
