Reds Let 1t Slip
That They Fake
Korean Films

FRANKFURT, Aug. 26 (NANA-
Kemnews). - Czech Communists
have revealed unintentionally that
the North Koreans are producing
bogus newsreelsi of the fighting in
Korea.
A Czech radio commentator, de-
scribing the films shown at re-
cent film festival in Carlsbad, ex-
|plained over the Prague radio that
one newsreel was soundless because
the film studio had been bombed
out while the film was in produc-
ton.
The Prague commentator went
on to lament that many "profes-
Sional actors" in the cast were
killed during the bombing.
This fatal slip was not noticed
until much later, when the station
broadcast another talk referring to
the ''newsreel" and praising the
unparalleled courage" of the cam
|eraman for his work in filming
''front-line" combat.
There were no references to the
studio bombing mentioned in the
first broadcast.

NEW YORK. Aug. ga ST.
room Long Island mansion, once
a part of the j. P. Morgan estate,
will be sold to an order of Catholic
nuns-instead Of to the Russian
delegation to the United Nations,
An agreement for the sale was
worked out here yesterday by at
torneys for the Russians, the city
Of Glen Cove. N. Y. and the nuns,
the Sisters of st. John the Baptist.
The Russians had tried to buy
the house near Glen Cove. They
paid from $4,000 to $4,000 for
tax liens and offered a $50, 900 GER
titled check to clinch the bargain.
But the city of Glen Cove, which
acquired the mansion in 1949 for
back taxes Of $5,233. returned the
Russian check after some city resi-
dents protested against Russian
occupation Of the property.
In agreeing to buy the mansion
for use as a residence. the nuns
accepted an estimated price of
$50.000 to SIS. 900 for the mansion
and six acres. Part of that sum
is to be used to. reimburse the
Russians for the tax liens.

said:

Housewives Are Sef 10
Revolt COP. Says
BY the Assoeicisd Press

Mrs. Ivy Priest, assistant to the
chairman Of the Republican Ma
tional Committee, said today the
American housewives "are pre-
pared to revolt" and elect Dwight
D. Eisenhower President.
'The Bureau of Labor statis-
tics keeps putting out the bad
news of the results of Democratic
policy" she said In a statement
issued by the committee. "A week
ago it reported that the average
city family spent $400 more than
it earned in 1850. What the bu-
reau did not note was that since
then the cost of living index has
jumped 10 percentage points, and
the purchasing power of the dol
lar has slipped from $50 cents
to 52.4 cents.
Even the trebling of the food
bill since 1889 is not hurting the
housewife as much as the SIT
billion rise in taxes. Harry Tru-
man has spent 1927 billion. as
compared with Sill billion for all
other Presidents before 1882"

be destined to become a para
graph in the history books as
the United States turns more
and more to foreign sources
for iron ore.
The switch will bring a great
change in shipping. At present,
only 10 ore carrierS-of 24,000-
ton capacity-ply the seas under
American registry between here

Der seems pitifully small. But
on the drafting boards, and
in minor instances in the ship
yards, moves are now under way
to increase the fleet.
The reason for this switch
to foreign ore: The Nation
hopes to hold in strategic re-
serve the rapidly vanishing do
mestic supply.
The 10 carriers flying the
American flag are owned by the
Ore Steamship Co., a Bethle-
hem Steel Co. subsidiary. They
cart iron ore from Bethlehem's
