Caldwell Tells Court
He Didn't Interfere
With Snags Lewis Jury

Charges that he tried to bribe
a juror at gambling trial were
denied from the stand in District
Court today by Bennie C. Cald-
well, 81. owner of the Club Bali
at 1901 Fourteenth street NV.
The colored defendant told the
jury in the closing phase of his
trial that he had interfered in no
way with the trial in January,
1850, of William tSnags) Lewis,
and two others.
Under croSs-examination Mr..
Caldwell said he had known Lewis
as a customer in his night club
since 1910.
The testimony of the defendant
was interrupted to permit the in
production of eight character wit
nesseS led off by Sergt. John F.
Ash of No. 13 precinct, who said
he had known Mr.. Caldwell in his
precinct for several years and
considered his general reputation
very good"
Witnesses Support Alibi.
One count of the indictment
accuses him offering money on
January 10, 1850. to member
of a jury panel to obtain informa-
tion from the trial jury. The other
count accuses Caldwell of causing
q sum of money to be offered a
Juror on January %, 1850, to
influence her decision.
Key defense witnesses have tes-
titled Caldwell was elsewhere at
the times the prosecution con-
tends the sums were offered.
Lester P. Bailey, assistant field
secretary of the National Asso-
citation for the Advancement OF
Colored People, testified yesterday
Caldwell was at a membership
meeting of the association, be-
ginning at 10 o'clock, on the night
of January %, 1850. Similar tes-

Views Differ on Whether Reds
Can Force Decision in Korea

they can mount an all-out drive
designed to destroy the United Ma
tions army or drive it into the sea. ~
That's one view. Other officers
are just as emphatic in rebuttal.
They say:
"The Chinese supply system is
bad. They haven't got the means
to bring food and other equip
ment down from Manchuria. Our
Air Force is playing havoc with
the little transport the Chinese
have. We have pretty we'll de-
stroyed their supply routes.
Therefore. the only thing they
can do is mount short and shallow
otfensives. designed to penetrate
our positions. Once that penetra-
ton has been made. the Commu-
niSts hope they can find a new
food supply. Then they can go on
to exploit the breakthrough."
1t. Gen. Edward M. Almond
commander of the United States
10th Corps. seems to agree with
the latter view. Last week he said
the Chinese armies were whiting
on the vine" for lack of supplies
Chinese Denied Granaries.
"It is a wonder to me how thev
are able to feed their mass army
he said.
He added that by tradition the
Chinese have always fought from
one rice bowl to another. But We
have denied them the graneries
of Korea aaa
The key to the puzzle probably
lies in the answer to this ques-
ton:
do the Communists actually
want to reach a military decision
in Korea?"
No one knows.
Perhaps, as one offer said
they just want to keep us here
in the hope that we will expend
all our energy in a fruitless war
and ultimately bleed ourselves to
death. After all they have the
British tied down in Malaga and
the French ir Indo-C China. All of
Europe lies open to the Russians,
who haven't a single soldier COM
mitted in oattle in any part OF
the world"
The Allies in Korea can only
fight. wait and see.

Enemy An Apt Military Student.
Undoubtedly. this statement
will be misconstrued by some
critics who will say, why are the
Joint Chiefs of Staff advertising
the fact that we are not militarily
in a position to have a show
DOWN."
can assure those critics that
with the methods we must pursue
in democracy in order to sup
port a military establishment
including this present investiga-
ton of our strategy in the Far
East-our capabilities are not un-
known to the Communists.
They are apt students of mill
tary power. and fully realize that
although we are not prepared to
deliver any ultimatum, we could
hurt them badly If they attacked
Jus or our friends.
They also know that with our
potential, and the strength Of our
allies, in the long run they could
not win a war with a United
States that is alert, and contin-
uously prepared.
would not be proponent of
any policy which would ignore the
military facts and rush us head
long into showdown before we
lare ready. It is true that this
policy Of armed resistance to ag-
igresSion, which we puxsue while
we are getting stronger, often
risks a world war. But so far We
have taken these risks without
disastrous results.
I think our global strategy is
paying of and see no reason to
let impatience alter 1t in the Far

East. Certainly the course of ac-
ton we are pursuing has avoided
a total war which could only bring
death and destruction to millions
OF Americans, both in the United
States and on the battlefield. Our
present course of action has at
the same time won us respect and
admiration everywhere in the
world, both inside and outside the
Iron Curtain.
Not Decisive Move.
There are also those who de-
plore the present military situa-
ton in Korea and urge us to
engage Red China in a larger
war to solve this problem. TAX
ing on Red China is not a decisive
move, does not guarantee the end
of the war In Korea. and may not
bring China to her knees. We
have only to look back to the FIVE
long years when the Japanese,
one Of the greatest military pow
ers of that time. moved into
China and had almost full con-
troll of large part Of China: and
yet were never able to conclude
that war successfully. I would
say that from past history one
would only jump from a smaller
conflict to a larger deadlock at
greater expense.
My own feeling is to avoid such
an engagement If possible because
victory In Korea would not be as
sured and victory over Red China
would be many years away. We
believe that every effort should be
made to settle the present con-
f1ict without extending it outside
Korea. If this proves to be i'm
possible. then other measures may
have to be taken.
In my consideration of this
viewpoint, I am going back to the
basic objective of the American
people-as much peace as we can
gain without appeasement.
Some critics of our strategy say
II we do not Immediately bomb
troop concentration points and
alrfields in Manchuria, it is zap
peasement." If we do not imme-
diately set UP a blockade of Chi
nese ports-which to be successful
would have to include British and
Russian ports in Asia-it is "ap-
peasement." These same critics
would say that if we do not pro-
vide the logistical support and air
and naval assistance to launch
Chinese Nationalist troops into
China, it is "appeasement."
These critics ignore the vital
questions:
Will these actions, if taken. ac-
tually assure victory In Korea?
Do these actions mean pro-
longation of the war by bringing
Russia into the fight?
Will these actions strip us of our
allies in Korea and in other parts
of the world?
"Appeasement to Aggression"
From a military viewpoint, ap-
peasement occurs when you give
up something which is rightfully
free to an aggressor without put
ting up a struggle. or making him
pay a price. Forsaking Korea
withdrawing from the fight unless
we are forced out-would be an
appeaSement to aggression. Re-
fusing to enlarge the quarrel to
the point where our global capa-
bilities are diminished, is certainly
not appeasennent but is a mill
tarily sound course of action under
the present circumstances.
1t is my sincere hope that these
hearings will encourage us as a
Nation to follow steadfast and
determined course of action in this
world, which would deny any free
nation to Soviet imperialism, and
at the same time preserve the
peace for which so many men died
in World War I. World War II,
and in Greece. Indochina, Malaga
and Korea. END of statement)
