stepped from the plane. II can

The General wore combat boots
and green field cap. Two pistols
dangled at his hips.
His eyes were lined and his ex-
preston was serious. He smiled
for photographers, but only when
asked. The smile appeared to be
forced.
While Gen. Dodd was being
photographed. he turned and
pointed to Brig. Gen. Paul F.
Yount, commander of the End
Logistical Command who accom-
panied him from Pusan.
This is the man you should be
photographing." he said.
The End Logistical Command
was in charge of the negotiations
for his release. After four minutes
at the field, the General was
driven to Gen. James A. Van
Fleets 9th Army headquarters.
An 9th Army staff officer said
he did not know whether the con-
cessions granted the Communists
would be announced at the news
conference.
Held for 78 Hours.
Gen. Dodd was released at $50
pm, 78 hours and Is minutes
after he was dragged bodily into
a compound of 5000 surly Com
munist prisoners.
The 8Jh Army said Gen. Dodd
was released after a meeting of
Communist prisoner of war lead
ers on Koje.
Seized at Conference.
Gen. Dodd, So, commander of
the island prison, was seized as he
conferred with the prisoners at
the gate of Compound rs. He and
1t. Col. Wilbur Raven of Newton,
Tex, were grabbed by the Red
leaders, but Col. Raven fought his
way out of the group.
Gen. Dodd was held hostage in
side the compound, where he ne
gotiated with the Reds for settle
ment of some of their grievances.
The Reds permitted him free use
of the telephone and allowed meals
to be sent to him.
Gen. Dodd asked camp author
tiles to refrain from using force
to free him until the Communists
had completed listing their de-
mands. The Army said yesterday
some minor requests" of the Reds
had been granted.
Those requests included use of a
telephone, writing paper and the
admittance of prisoner leaders
from other compounds on the
island.
About 10000 Communists now
are held on the island, including
most of the 10000 who have said
they wish to return to Communist
rule.
Scene of Two Riots.
Koje was the scene OF two
bloody riots, both of them insti-
gated by die-hard Korean Red
prisoners. Seventy-five prisoners
were killed and 155 wounded Feb
ruary 18 when American guards
were forced to fire on prisoners
attacking them with crude but
deadly weapons. One guard was
killed and 38 wounded.
Two days later Gen. Dodd was
named prison commander.
Another riot erupted March 13
Twelve prisoners were killed and
26 wounded when South Korean
- guards fired into a compound

Tracks Torn Up.
Early arrivals at the scene
about a mile east of the College
Park Station-said it appeared a
brake coupling had broken on a
car in the middle of the 87-car
train. The dragging metal tore
up southbound tracks for several
hundred feet, throwing Is cars in
the middle of the train off the
track.
Witnesses said the freight cars
were jumbled along the right-of-
way like collection of toy freight
cars which had been kicked aside.
The locomotive and 33 cars in
the front part of the train con-
itinued to Riverdale before stop

at the rear of the south-bound
train were dragged away from the

Fire Fought With Foam.
Firemen fought the smoky blaze
with foam. Fire trucks had to
make several trips to the College
Park fire station to obtain addi-
tional supplies.
The District foam wagon was
sent to the scene. 1t broke down
about half mile away, and a
District crane was sent out to tow
it to the tracks.
Railroad officials said a WASH

ingtOn was also delayed.
Mrs. Alberta Cordove. colored,

RECORD MEAT PRODUCTION
FORECAST

The Department of Agriculture predicts
that meat production will hit a record high
peacetime level next year. This will be the
result of a four year expansion of cattle
herds which brought the total from 77,OOO,-
600 in January, 1949, to 880OO,OOO at the
beginning of 1852 By the time 1853 dawns,
it is estimated that the figure will be 93,-
100000.
The Department also said that there may
be moderate further declines in cattle prices
but that returns to producers should be good
This is a desirable trend for number
OF reasons. For one thing, meat represents
agriculture's largest single cash crop, is a
big factor in determining the farmers pur-
chasing power, and so has a very important
bearing on the economic system as a whole
For another, meat consumption is a pretty
good barometer of our living standards-in
the vast majority of homes, meat is regard
ed as the basis of a meal. For still another,
dietetic science has found that the amount
of meat we eat has much to do with our phv-
sical and mental vigOr and with our health
IN general. This was dramatically proven
during World War 1.-THE diets adopted by
the military forces were very high in their
meat content, and the results were extreme
ly beneficial. And it is now known that meat
IS OF great value in helping promote recovery
from long list Of diseases and ailments.
We have meat industry which is ad-
miraby geared to our needS-all the wav
from farm and ranch to the packing houses
and the butcher houses. We have a cOmpe-
tltlve, supply and demand economic system
which holds meat prices to as low a level as
the cost Of doing business will allow And,
save for one or two exceptions, we eat more
and better meat than any other people.

WHOSE VIEWS COUNT!

Following an hour long meeting
with the President-elect, Senator
Alexander Wiley. of Wisconsin,
member of the United States dele
CATION to the UN and prospective
chairman OF the Senate Foreign Re
latiOns Committee announced that
General Eisenhower had reaffirmed
his complete dedication to the
principles of the UN", and had
emphasized his agreement with
the principle of no forcible repa-
triatiOn of Communist prisoners.
And following a luncheon with
the General the next day, Britain S
Foreign Secretary Anthony Eden
returned to the UN General Assem-
bly, where he put the okay of Her
Majesty's Government on Indias
plan for q Korean truce and
US Secretary of State Dean Ache
son swallowed his earlier sharp
criticism and followed suit.
From all of which you may get an
idea, inaugural or no inaugural
who is the Head Man in the US
as of now.
1t may be interesting to note in
passing that on the day of the
EisenhOweT-Eden luncheon, Presi-
dent Truman held his first press
conference since Election Day and
referred again to Korea as a "pO-
lice action" and S39 more Ameri-
can casualties were announced for
the week.

OUR NEW FIRST TEAM

AS President Truman was empha-
sizing in his press conference that
the purpose of his White House
meeting with President-elect Eisen-
hover was to let the world know
that this nation is organized, and
that take-Over by the new Admin
istratiOn will be an orderly pro-
cess, General Ike, in New York,
lent emphasis to his words by an
nouncing his first three cabinet Sc
lectiOns.
John Foster Dulles, seasoned for
eign expert and chief architect of
the Japanese Peace Treaty, was
named as many expected, to be Sec
retary of State. Charles Z. Wilson,
President of General Motors, as
some were guessing, was selected
as Secretary of Defense, and Gov
ernOr Douglas Mckay, of Oregon,
as few if any suspected, is Ike's
choice as Secretary of the Interior.
Early comment from senators in
Washington pointed to enthusias-
tic confirmation.
In announcing his acceptance to
the call of duty, which he termed
a great SURPRISE Nj. Wilson said:
IF and when ! am confirmed
by the Senate, ! will sever all my
business connections and devote
my entire time to the job AS a
side-light on this statement, it
might he noted that Wilson's pay
check from GIN last year Gnclud-
ing salary and bOnus) tOtaled
S626,000, and his salary from Uncle
Sam next year will be $22,50O.
Governor Mckay, fighting advO-
cate of reclamation and irrigation
free from Federal domination, also
achieved fame as author of the
Mckay Plan" by which Oregon
solved its angled highway prob
lens without yielding to the pres
sure of either railroad or trucking
interests. In his acceptance the
Governor said he had looked for
ward to retirement at the end of
his present term at the State House,
but like Mr.. Wilson considered
Ike's designation a command.
F 1t would be no surprise Cat this
writingl if DR.. John Hanna, legal
and agricultural expert of Michi-
gan State College, at Lansing. Mich.
(and an old Washington hand), be-
came Secretary Of Agriculture; for
mer campaign advisor Herbert

belts and had turquoise ear rings
and necklaces on. They All def
nitely looked like western people
and we wondered if they could TYNE
us as we'll.
At Gage, N. NJ, we stopped for
gas and had Lynne stand between
two Indians to have her picture
taken. Lynne had learned 4. new
word in Mexico and when she left
them she said "Adios" and knowing
no Indian word ourselves, that had
to do as cur goodbye to them, too.
Almost as soon as we were in
Arizona we began seeing mountain
tops covered with snow. BY now
many of you know / can not stand
heights and the higher we climbed
the worse my phObia became. Once
when we were on the edge of a cliff
l just buried my face in the front
seat and Dawnie said, "What'ya
doin', MOmmy? Powder your face?''
We were just hanging on the sides
of these mountains and the signs
would say, "Stay right" ana if we
had gone any farther over to the
right we would have been over the
cliff. I'll take Delaware. We stay
ed in the copper mining town of
/ Globe, Arizona, last night. This
morning we were back in those
mountains again. DaWnie wanted
me for something as we were rid
ing along today and l wait, "Wait
a minute, Dawnie, I'm driving"
She knew / wasn't, but with the
help I was giving Hayes l know he
wasn't SO sure. In Arizona they
mark deaths on the roads with
white crosses and with each one I
SAVE today l just could have died
myself One time we smelled rub
ber burning which was probably
from the heater, but all / could
think of was our brakes wearing
out on those steep hills! Right
outside of Snowflake, Arizona,
there was some road repairing be-
/ ing done, which made the road pass
age so narrow. / rolled down my
window and yelled to the men to
see what had happened and do
you know what he told me: "The
road went down" I just looked at
Hayes and on we drove. All along
our drive we would see "Slide
Area" and by the side of the noun
tain you could see where big, and
II do mean big, bOulders had slid
down onto the road. The trees,
mountains and everything around
us today was covered with newly
fallen snow and of course it was
a beautiful drive, but frightening
one, too.
Tonight we are cozily settled in
the Bright Angel Lodge at Grand
Canyon. I'll write you next week
about the things we see here and
about our trip to the Painted Desert
and Petrified Forest.
Until I write to you all in fiat
old Delaware next week, thanks
again for reading me.
Always,
Elaine Townsend DickersOn
