Initiation Has Reduced
Missionary Activities,
|Presbyterians Told

Imitation has cut the ranks of
missionaries within the past year,
a Presbyterian minister reported
yesterday.
The Rev. William H. Kepler,
minister of Northminster Presby-
terian Church, said fewer Presby-
terian missionaries were sent
overseas this year than last year
because of initiation. Mr.. Kepler,
member of the Washington City
Presbytery's Foreign Mission
Committee. spoke at the presby-
tery's monthly meeting yesterday
in Vienna (VaD Presbyterian
Church.
THE Presbyterian Church,
U. S. A., sent 1,126 missionaries
overseas in 1851 and only LIS
this year despite an increase in
giving for this purpose" Mr..
Kepler explained.
Donations Increased.
"Our people have increased their
giving but have not done so to
keep pace with the higher cost of
sending and maintaining mis-
sionaries overseas. We have po-
tential missionaries who would be
glad to go abroad but imitation has
made prices so high we do not
have the money to send them"
Presbytery approved two over
lures TesolutionS) stemming from
imitation effects, for submission to
the national body's General As
sembly meeting in New York next
month.
One asks that retired ministers
be permitted to serve as interim
pastors at small churches without
suffering a loss in their pensions.
Rules Limit Earnings.
According to present rules, a
retired minister can earn up to
$100 a month without loss of
pension, but cannot make more
than that, sum.
The other overture asked that
relief grants to retired ministers
or their widows be increased from
the present $3.50 a year now pro-
vided. Present prices have made
this amount pitifully inadequate
these days. it was noted.
The Rev. Wendell S. Tredick,
presbytery moderator and minis
ter of Warner Memorial Pres
byterian Church, presided.

II have read similar statements

Association" he said. 1T seems
to me that if there are any charges
against men who are representing
men unfortunately in trouble, they
should be made before the Griev-

ney. interjected this comment:
Il have been practicing law for

Koje Raid Killing 81 Reveals
Red Plot to Take Over Island
Rebellion Crushed With One American Slain
As Porotroopers Shift 6,400 Prisoners

and the others will go back in
few days.
No Shots Fired.
The fight broke out when the
POWs disobeyed orders to move
peaceably into new, smaller in
closures of about 500 each.
United States Army intelligence
officers found master plan in 76
to liberate all 10000 Communist
prisoners held on Koje. 1t called
for the Reds to seize the island
and it's U. N. garrison and turn
its weapons against any force
from the mainland. Further de-
tails were withheld.
Not a shot was fired in the
barbed wire incircled battlefield.
The $50 Americans of the
"Angels From He'll" combat team
used concussion grenades, bayo-
nets. tear gas and fists to subdue
the rebellious 6,400 North Koreans.
The Reds were armed with spears,
knives, rocks and flrebombs.
Surrendering prisoners were
hustled off to the new enclosures.
Brig. Gen. Hayden L. Boatner,
the Koje commander. had given
the Reds a chance to move to
the new quarters peacefully.
Die-hard Communist leaders
chose to fight.
Other Compounds See Fight.
When it became obvious the
Reds were not going to obey his
order, Gen. Boatner telephoned
Brig. Gen. Thomas j. H. Trapnell,
commander of the 18TH Airborne
Combat Team,. who went into
action.
The wild, swirling battle was
witnessed by prisoners of two other
unruly compounds-78 and II.
Shortly after the fight ended,
Gen. Boatner told prisoners in 78
to get ready to be moved-or else.
The prisoners obeyed meekly.
And leaders in compound II
sent word that they would be
ready to move on Gen. Boatner's
command. They will be moved
tomorrow.
Gen. Boatner personally had or
dered North Korean Col. Lee Hak
Koo, a compound 76 leader, to
assemble the POWs for moving.
Lee refused.
At 5:45 am. loudspeakers
blared to the compound:

you will not be hurt. If you resist

D. {. Reorganization
Unanimously Backed
By Senate Committee
Trumon-Approved PIon
Will Be Effective JuIy2
Unless Congress Rejects II
By Harriet Griffiths

The Senate Committee on Gov
ernment Operations today voted
unanimously in favor of the Dis
trict reorganization plan sent to
Congress May by President Tru-
man.
The committee will send q re-
port to the Senate in favor of
permitting the proposed reor-
ganization to go into effect July
l. The proposal is effective auto
matically unless disapproved by
either house of Congress.
At the District Building, As
sistant Engineer Commissioner
Thomas j. Hayes III hailed the
action as one more step along the
way toward long-sought reor-
ganization of the city setup.
In Executive Session.
The committees action was
taken in executive session as it
considered the District proposal
along with other Government re-
organization matters. Ten of the
13 members of the committee were
present.
A committee source said it was
felt a main objection to the plan
could be eliminated through leg
islation now pending to make some
changes in the District Board of
Tax Appeals.
He referred to a District Bar
Association objection to placing
the board under the Commits
SionerS.
In its report to the Senate, the
committee is expected to note that
the reorganization measure is a
delegation of power to the Com
to reorganize, rather
than a definite plan.
1t retains, but streamlines, the
present commission form of gov
ernment. In sending it to Con-
gress, President Truman rejected
a plan of the Bureau of the
Budget which would set up a
council-manager form of govern
ment here.
District VIII. Be Ready.
Col. Hayes said that. the Dis
trict is working now in order that
If the reorganization authority is
granted on July l preparations
will be ready.
The first result probably will
be a midnight meeting of the
Commissioners on June 80.
Col. Hayes explained that when
the reorganization proposal be-
comes law all the functions of
some 95 city agencies will be
transferred to the Board Of Com
missioners.
This would call for an immedi-
ate redelegation Of authority back
to agencies so that they could
carry on their present function
until the reorganization is carried
out.
Presumably the agencies could
continue their functions salts
factorily until the next day. But
to be on sure ground. the city
heads plan to take the redelega-
ton step the moment they receive
the power.
Among the questions that con-
might arise would be the
Police Departments power of ar
rest.
