Senate investigators dug into
new evidence today Of high-profit
trade In which rich Americans and
Chinese Nationalists sold goods to
Red China, even after the start of
the Korean war.
Senator Mundt, Republican, Of
South Dakota, denouncing the
traffic and what he termed its
blood soaked profits" said he will
insist on further inquiry into some
only partially explored channels
of the trade.
Senator Mundt said he has been
advised that new evidence is
available" to shed light on a never
fully-explored story of how 1860
bales Of cotton, purchased from
United States surplus commodity
stores, were delivered TO Com
munist China in the three months
after fighting started in Korea.
The Korean war began June Is,
1850 (Korean tine) and the
Chinese Reds entered the fighting
five months later.
The current inquiry, originally
concerned with huge profits
reaped on deals in war surplus oil
|tankers. already has branched out
to cover these new points.

Mr.. Hutton said the deal was
with the Communist Chinese
Northeast Export Corp, which
traded soy beans for the cotton.

lected profits he estimated at be-
tween $225, 900 and $3.50, 900 for
