McCarran Charges
Foes Make Football
OF immigration Act

Senator McCarran, Democrat,
of Nevada complained last night
that the immigration act which
bears his name is being made a
political football" in "a shame
full display of demagoguery"
Asserting that both Gen. Eisen-
hover and Gov. Stevenson have
been misled" about ALLEGATION of
quota numbers under the act,
Senator McCarran said:
In the name of Americanism
the Presidents political Commits
sion on immigration and Natural
ization and candidates of both
parties are appealing for the
votes of so-called racial minori-
ties by misrepresenting the pro-
visions of an act which actually
liberalize the classes admissible
into the United States, but which
tighten the law on the exclusion
and deportation of subversives. 4"
Congress passed the law this
year over President Trumans veto.
Both Gen. Eisenhower, Republican
presidential candidate. and Gov.
Stevenson. Democratic candidate.
have said they would seek to have
1t modified if elected. Mr.. Truman
has been assailing it on the ground
it diScriminates against some
minority groups.
Senator McCarran declared "the
real attack" is "a calculated effort
to sabotage those provisions of
the act which are designed to pro-
tect this country from subversive
penetration.
He said the law was recon-
mended by the Justice and State
Departments and the Central In
telligence Agency.
Explaining provisions about
which he said Gen. Eisenhower
and Gov. Stevenson have been
misled. Senator McCarran said
"the act uses the same national
origins quota system which has
been the basic immigration policy
of this Nation since 1924" He
added that under this system,
quotas are assigned on the basis
of the percentage of the popula-
ton of the United States of each
nationality"

Citizens Council Urges
Uniform Plumbing Code

The Interfederation Council Of
Citizens Associations last night
passed resolution in favor Of
the national plumbing code.
The code would provide for uni
form regulations in the entire
Metropolitan Area, If accepted by
the Washington Suburban Sani-
tary Commission. Compiled ~
the National Plumbing Co-ordi-
mating Committee, the code covers
such points as standard fixtures,
water supply and distribution,
vents and venting and inspection.
A member of the Montgomery
County Civic Federation requested
the action, saying it would eradi-
cate the minor differences in
neighboring counties. These diff
ferences. he said, confuse the
plumbers.

liberation after first informing
District Judge James r. Kirkland
that it had been unable to arrive
at verdict after having had the
case for almost 20 hours.
The jury in the U. S. District

for the night at $3.50 pm. and re-
turned to the courthouse at 10

the jury room and overnight fa-
cilities too uncomfortable to con-
tinue.

The case went to the jury on
a single charge that Simkins re-
fused to answer a question last
January Is before the Senate Dis
trict Crime Investigating Com
Imittee.
Six other counts originally con-
tanned in the indictment were
thrown out by Judge Kirkland at
the opening of the trial last
Thursday.
The remaining count charged
Simkins with refusing to answer
the question:
Have you ever done any sort
Of work or occupation or profess
sion that you would like to tell
the committee about?" Simkins
refused to answer the question on
grounds Of fear Of possible self
incrimination.
On request of Defense Counsel
George E. C. Hayes and Milford
Schwartz. Judge Kirkland in
structed the jury to acquit Simkins
| if it found that it was his belief
that the committee merely wanted
to know whether it was his desire
to answer the one remaining ques-
ton.
Judge Kirkland, also at request
of defense counsel, instructed the
jury to acquit Simkins if it be-
lieveG he was confused when the

Sniper Ridge Attack
Amid Binding Rain
BY the Associoted Press

SEOUL. Korea, Oct. 21.-About
$500 Chinese Reds attacked in a
binding rainStorm tonight in a
renewed assault on mud-coated
Sniper Ridge.
The Communists struck under
cover of an intense artillery and
mortar barrage. But South Ko-
reans held them at bay with heavy
rife and artillery fire.
The attack begged down on the
muddy slopes of Pinpoint Hill,
the highest peak in the ridge.
They came down the ridge
from the north" the officer said.
I'VE can't use flares because of
the overcast and rain"
The night was so dark the
South Koreans couldn't see the
Chinese until the attacking troops
were almost upon them.
Triangle Attack Awaited.
An ominous quiet hung over
nearby Triangle Hill where United
States 7th Division troops awaited
an expected Chinese onslaught.
Some 20 miles to the east, South
Korean troops battled to within
20 yards of the crest of Iron Horse
Mountain at noon today. They
pulled back. however, because
their supporting tanks could not
find their targets through heavy
fog that covered the valley floor
A chill rain fell across the bat
tie front. 1t pelted the weary al
lied troops and turned the earth
to mud. Winding trails up the
steep slopes became slippery
slides.
Overcast skies grounded United
Nations warplanes.
Reports from the front said the
Reds lost more than $500 men
killed OF wounded in the first
week of fighting on Triangle Hill
and Sniper Ridge.
Red Casualties Mount.
United States 7th Division off,
GERS said the Reds suffered 4,640
casualties on Triangle alone. On
Sniper Ridge, officers of the Re-
public of Korea I'd Division esti-
mated the Red toll at 5000 killed
or wounded.
These figures do not include
casualties inflicted by allied war;
planes. They brought reported
Communist casualties for October
to more than $4,000.
B-26 Invader bombers last night
attacked two Red supply concen-
trations in North Korea. Pilots
reported 20 explosions-probably
ammunition-at one of the targets
north of Pyongyang. the Red Ko-
rean capital.
The Navy said its carrier planes

MRS. GLADYS w.

vinced that your second marriage
has nothing to do with the chill

that is undoubtedly where the
trouble lies. They are jealous, not
so much Of each other, as Of their

You show fine discernment ir
realizing the responsibility OF
launching q beautiful girl in the

her no good If she has a selfish
demanding disposition.
Since both children are socially
minded, and are at their best
in group work, emphasize that
part of their development as much
as possible. Dancing. dramatics,
sports-anything that will en-
courage them to get along with
other children-will be good for
them. However. stay on the side
lines as much as possible during
their activity. Don't let them get
the idea that you encourage an
