watch is kept on the quarry until
finally the tops Of their masts
have disappeared over the horizon.
Then Wahoc comms4aces some
m neuvers which are rather
strange for a submarine anxious
to avoid detection in enemy
waters.
The periscope rises higher and
higher out of the water as the
submerged vessel comes closer to
the surface. AS the height of
the tip Of the periscope increases
above the surface of the sea, Nor
ton can see farther over the hori-
zon. and sight is thus kept on the
escaping ships as long as pos
sible. Finally, with the hull of
the submarine only few feet be-
low the water and the periscope
extending a full Is feet into the
air, contact issfinally lost. The
periscope twifls around rapidly
scanning the horizon and the skies
for any sign of other enemy ac-
tivity. Then, swiftly, it starts
down.
There is a moments hiatus. and
suddenly Wahoo surfaces.
Soon she is making a respect

tries to back into attack position,
but is frustrated by the subma-
Irine's poor maneuverability while
going aStern. So he must out
guess the enemy, despite his rad
ical Zigzag plan.
Wahoo gets directly behind the
tanker, which in turn is behind
the freighter. Then, as the two
Japs zig to the right, Wahoo stays
on the original course. and when
they zig back to the left. the SUBJ
marine is about a mile on the
beam of the unfortunate tanker
Suddenly Wahoo's rudder is put
full left, and her port propeller is
backed at full power, while her
starboard screw is put at ahead
full. In this manner Morton is
able to twist his ship, get her end
on to the broadside of the now
doomed Jap, and let fly two tor
Ipedoes.
One hit amidships. The vessel
folds in the middle and plunges
from sight almost instantly.
"All ahead full" Now for that
frieghter! Wahoo has played
around with him long enough.
But the skipper of the lone re-
naming Jap ship has other ideas
He keeps up continuous fire with
his guns and Steams in even more
radical and haphazard fashion
than before. Now and then he
sights the ominous shape of the
sea wolf stalking him and places a
few well-aimed shells alongside
forcing her to turn away and once
even forcing her to dive.
For an hour this cat-and-mouse
game keeps up. Finally, a power
full searchlight beam is sighted
over the horizon. An escort vessel
or destroyer, probably sent to sue
cor four vessels which had reported
being under attack by submarine
Wahoo had better do something
to end this stalemate fast! Again
Morton puts on his thinking cap
What would he do if he were the
skipper of the Jap freighter?
WELL" thinks Mush. It'd head
for that destroyer just as fast as
I could" And he heads Wahoc
toward the destroyer. full speed.
Sure enough. the numbering hulk

direction. Only Wahoo has pre-
ceded him, and now lies in wait for
him. and two torpedoes come out

Cooper Sees Chance
For Gain in Visit by
Eisenhower 10 Korea
By Don S. Worren

Gen. Eisenhower'S projected
personal trip to Korea was ap-
plauded by Kentucky's new junior
Senator, John Sherman Cooper,
Republican. as he presented his
election credentials yesterday.
He saw in the trip a sure ad-
vantage. since it would give the
PreSident-elect a closeup per-
sonal knowledge Of the situation
Senator Cooper said this would
be far better than any reading
of reports
He told a press conference
o. Capitol Hill that. while he
could see no quick or easy solu-
ton OF the Korean problem, he
felt there still remains chance
OF getting a negotiated truce.
To put it in his own words, he
said he did not think all of the
possibilities of negotiation have
been exhausted. He saw some
new hope in the election of a new
President who would bring a
fresh group to negotiate with
Stalin'S Russians.
First to Get Second Term.
Mr.. Cooper, the first Kentucky
Republican ever to be elected for
q second term in the Senate. sue
ceeds Democratic Senator Thomas
r. Underwood. who was ap-
pointed to replace the late Sem
ator Virgil Chapman, Democrat
killed in a traffic accident here.
Mr.. Sherman, a former member
of the Senate District Commit
tees. will not be sworn into Of
fee until January, when the new
Congress conveneS.
Senator Cooper first was elected
to the Senate in 1916 but lost
to Senator Chapman in 1948.
Meanwhile, he has grown in
stature as a delegate to the
United Nations General Assembly,
both as a delegate and as an al
ternate,
Time for Bombing May Come.
Senator Cooper said the time
might come when it would be wise
for the democratic nations to
bomb Red bases in Manchuria or
to use Chinese Nationalist regi-
mentS from Formosa, but he listed
these as future or last-stop alter
natives.
He told reporters he thinks fur
ther negotiation should be tried,
and suggested some hope for
agreement. But he said if it comes
to the last stage. then he would
approve use of Chinese National
ist troops, bombing of Manchurian
bases and other military steps
While hoping for peaceful set
tlement, Senator Cooper said he
had seen nothing in the papers
that would indicate the Reds
want a truce"
The Russians. Senator Cooper
said, twill have to be convinced
that the situation is such, at least
at this time, that truce would
be in their best interests. They
then might change and want a
truce"
Senator. Cooper was back in
New York today, attending an
other meeting of the United Ma
tions to learn all possible informa-
ton on the foreign relations prob
lens. He is seeking an assignment
to the Senate Foreign Relations
Committee, with Judiciary and
Agriculture Committees as second
choices.

Truman S New Budget

By The Assoeinied Pres.

The head Of every American
family will have an extra debt or
tax burden Of 1926 If President
Truman's new budget calls for
1888 billion.
This was estimated today by the
United States Chamber Of Com
|merce, which urged its members
ito help cut Federal spending by
leasing up their pressure on Con-
gress for money for State and
local projects.
The chamber said its figures are
based, on a SO billion boost. in
Federal spending. It Is reported

Monday win cali for from $83 To-
$85 billion. compared with an esti-
mated $40 to $73 billion this fiscal
year ending June 30.
A $40 billion boost. the chamber
estimates, would bring additional
average tax or debt burdens rang
ing from $120 per family in Mis-
sissippi to $500 in Delaware. The
average would be 1926.
strangely enough" the cham
ber said. "the District Of CO.
lumbia, home Of bureaucrats, will
have the highest liability, namely
$421 for the family"
It said it arrived at the esti-
mates by allocating the new tax
burden among States in proper
ton to incomes received by indi-f
viduals Id each State. This State
figure was then divided by the

| Chamber President D. A Hulcy
appealed to more than 2,O00

publicly that they would oppose

Comparisons Difficult.
"The comparison of tax bur-
dens is extremely difficult, be-
cause it is so hard to find salts

said Mr.. Fowler. 'Thus, there is
q need for reading the results of
such surveys -. with some
candor."
! The figures might be misinter-
preted, unless there is an under
standing Of what they represent,
he noted. pointing out that the
1926 average is obtained by divid-
ing the total taxes collected, $780,
910, 900, by the population. 802,17S.
The budget officer went on to
say that, should a satisfactory
means Of measuring tax burdens
for purposes Of comparison be de-
vised, he feels sure the evidence
would show the District has
neither the highest per capita tax
burden among cities in the coun-
try, nor the lowest.
