MAIDS NIGHT OUT

AARON SLICK FROM PUN.
KIN cRick" at the Strand Theatre
There's more than oil gushing all
over the field in this contrived
comedy on an old plot: songs are
spouted by Dinah Shore and Robert
Merrill, Metropolitan opera star,
assisted by Alan Young.
The story is so old it creaks like
worn out drilling gear as if any
minute the bit might drop through
all the way 10 China: but the bright
new singing, the costuming and
the glowing color saved the day.
The butter and egg woman. a
country widow, owns oil land but
doesn't know it. The city slicker,
also an oil slicker, moves in on the
community and the lady. Complica-
tons begin at once in the old time
"opery House" tradition, like the
one-night stand plays which de
lighted grandma and grandpa.
Since this picture, Robert Merrill
has gone back to legitimate opera.
but movie fans may demand a re-
turn engagement. Last Hollywood
report was that more than twenty
musical comedies were due for
screen consumption. The run on the
full-color fun musical comedy
brand Of entertainment was set off
by Gene kelly's recent successes
in IAN American In Paris" and
Singing In The Rain.
This lively and hammy rube
comedy won't win any film awards.
bat II is entertaining and a pleasant
little opus for the family trade.

ary, the official daily Com
munist newspaper in Peiping
admitted that great quanti-
ties of contaminated band
ages containing a variety of
bacteria had been distributed
by their own Communist
physicians to front-line SOL
diers for surgical dressings.
During the same week, the
paper revealed that Commu-
mist army stocks had been
found to include spoiled beef
and eggs, mildewed flour and
sanded pickles. This decayed
food, served to Communist
troops by their own cooks. is
assumed to be a contributing
cause to the spread of disease
among their forces.
Returning from an inSpec-
ton tour Of the fighting front
in Korea, Maj. Gen. Torstein
Dale, director general Of med
ical services for the armed
forces Of Norway, expressed
the opinion:
II see the North Korean
epidemics as proof of the lack
of Communist sanitation con-
trols and bad living condi-
tions. When they accuse us
Of germ warfare, they are
trying to cover up their own
medical shortcomings"
No major epidemics have
been reported In the Republic
of Korea since the war. The
reason is that the United Ma
tions has conducted a mass
immunization drive to inocu-
late civilians, refugees from
North Korea and prisoners of
war against diseases prevalent
in that part of the world.
All United States soldiers
are inoculated against many
diseases upon entrance into
the Army and are given addi-
tional immunization shots
when they are needed In the
field. The Army Medical
Corps also provides immu-
nization programs for other
U. N. forces fighting in Korea.
And the United Nations Is
feeding, clothing and housing
millions Of Korean civilians,
a measure that helps prevent
famine and epidemics.

Germ Warfare in Korea
Means War on Germs

THROUGHOUT the history
l. of Korea, epidemics Of
bubonic plague, smallpox and
cholera have been a frequent
menace to the health and
lives of the people.
After the North Koreans
crossed the 38th Parallel to
invade the Republic of Korea
in 1850, these and other dis
eases continued to reach
epidemic proportions at reg
ular intervals in North Korea.
They were intensified by
crowded living conditions and
lack of adequate medical care
for civilians and soldiers.
Each time disease sweeps
over the Communicated
area, the North Koreans and
Chinese Communists vigor-
ouSly accuse the United Ma
tions of using germ warfare.
Earlier this year, when one
of the attacks was made,
Secretary of State Acheson
asked the International Com
mittee of the Red Cross to
investigate the charges on
both sides of the battle lines.
The committee Is composed
of a group of Swiss citizens
who act as intermediates
between warning nations.
Denying that the U. N. had
used biological warfare, Sec
retary Acheson suggested that
the Red Cross determine the
nature and extent Of diseases
in North Korea and reveal to
the world the real cause OF
the epidemics.
The North Korean and Chi
nese Communists refused to
admit representatives of the
International Committee Of
the Red Cross to investigate
the epidemics. They have
repeatedly rejected proposals
of the committee that it be
permitted to inspect prisoner
of-war camps in the Com
muniSt-held territory. Com
mittee members are given
free access for frequent in
spection of prisoner camps
controlled by the U. N. in the
Republic of Korea.

Wholesale Price Index
Drops Tenth Of Per Cent
BY the Associated Press


The wholesale price index

1873 per cent above the average for
the pre-Korean period (May "a

Mainly responsible for the low
cred index decreases reported in
