u. 5. Maritime Board
|SpIifs on Basis for
Cutting Ship Subsidies
BY the Asseeiaied Press

Members Of the Federal Mari
time Board disagreed yesterday
on the evidence which led to their
decision to cut previously agreed
upon construction subsidies for two
fast new passenger liners. The
cut was almost so per cent.
They testified before a special
House Merchant Marine Subcom-
mittee. Government subsidies for
the new liners independence and

by American Export Lines. are in

February 20. in which the board
added roughly sos million to the
sales price of the two ships, were

|of the board, and Members Albert

COncurs Reluctantly.
Admiral Cochrane said he con-
CURED reluctantly in the price re-
determination. and did not COM
pletely agree with it. He said the
data on which it was based was
not satisfactory in his opinion.
Chairman Shelley pointed out
that the law governing Shipbuild-
ing subsidies says subsidy pay
ments must be determined on the
basis of convincing evidence. He
asked the other two members il, 4,

their February opinion.

Pentagon Asks Clark
For Text of Remarks
On Bombing Of China
BY The Assoeioted Press

The Pentagon has asked Gen.
Mark Clark for q full transcript
of what he said about the possible
need for intensifying the Far East
war, it was learned yesterday.
The supreme commander was
described in a United Press inter-
view in Tokyo as saying the United
Nations should bomb Communist
China if truce talks fail and the
Reds use their air force to back
up a new offensive in Korea.
Top military officials here take
the position that Gen. Clark has
broad authority to initiate reac-
tion if the Communist ground and
air forces strike in an offensive
at the U. N. defensive line.
"Hot Pursuit" Permitted.
That authority includes the
right of "hot pursuit" of Red air.
craft under certain emergency
military situations" 1t was ex-
planned. This procedure, so far
as is known, has not been used
to the present.
But if the u. N. field command
thought this "hot pursuit" of
enemy aircraft across the Yalu
River into the present sanctuary
of Manchuria also should involve
actual bombing of enemy air bases
that would require a new directive
from here, Pentagon officials hold.
Have No Authority.
In this connection, it also was
made clear that the Far East air
and naval air forces do not now
have any grant of authority to
bomb the coast of Communist
China.
However, some months ago it
became known the United States
had sounded out the other allies
on the idea OF bombing, lombard
ment and blockade of Red seaports
and coastal commerce if truce
talks failed and the enemy at
tempted a new general offensive
in Korea.

WhyGrow

Extra weight never lands where
we might like it. Just let nature
hoard a few pounds on us and
where does she put it? On the
hips or stomach or waist when we
could have probably used it on the
bust of the neck more happily.
The only way we can get even
with her and with our own meas
urements is to indulge in regular
exercise. The following exercise
will white inches off the waist
Stand tall. Raise the arms up
ward, overhead. Stretch upward
toward the ceiling but do the
stretch from the shoulders, not the
elbows. Be sure that your fingers
are relaxed. You will feel the pull
through the torso. After a bit OF
this, keep reaching for the ceiling
but bend to the left and then to
the right. You will feel the pull
at the waistline. Do this slowly
Many women have a lovely
figure except for a pad of fat on
the abdomen. Fat accumulates
more rapidly over muscles which
are lazy. Lax abdominal muscles
lead to this figure fault.
The following exercise is helpful
Lie on your back with your arms
resting on the floor overhead. Lift
the trunk and arms at the same
time you raise the left leg from
the floor. Try to touch the ankle
with your fingertips. Return trunk
and leg to the floor. Keep the
legs straight. Do the same thing
with the right leg. Continue, al
ternating left and right.
If this exercise is too difficult
for you, do this one. Lie on the
floor on your back with your legs
straight and your arms resting at
your sides. Bend both knees up
close to your abdomen. Straighten
legs and return them to the floor
Stretch out. Repeat. If your
muscles are not strong enough for
this let the legs slide back along
the floor to place.

Takes Effort
By Angelo Potri

You boys, and girls love a winner,
and you all want to be one. Often!
you dream Of the day when you
will win the prize in whatever
work or play you like best. That
hope is a strengthening force in
your life and it will add power and
beauty to your character il land it
is a big If you will put all you
have into the effort it takes.
To win in any field you must
have a sound body and a clear
mind. You are tired of hearing
about health habits, how you must
eat with care. keeping an eye on
your weight and on your endur-
ance, how you must get rest and
how you must budget your time
and balance your activities so that
you become a Well-rounded per-
sonality.
I am going to add to your list
this caution. Avoid anything that
will lower your energy and cloud
your mind. You will never be your
possible best if you are weighted
with an under-par body and
clouded mind. Along with the
caution about your diet goes an
other that cautions you against
smoking and drinking hard liquor.
If you smoke you give up some
of your bright energy. You can
not get anything, not anything, in
this world without paying for it.
and the drugged feeling a smoke
offers you is the price for the
smoke. If you want to be the win
ner in your game, you cannot
afford to give up the least bit of
your strength.
If you drink, you pay in terms

Modern MARRIAGE

those of your own age-a hus-
band. for example. If you do not
remarry. you will be- more likely
to handicap your daughters by CIV
ing them too much Of your soci-
ETY. or making them feel respon-
sible for you.
Remarriage should keep you
growing. keep you out of a rut,
keep you from degenerating into
a self-centered, self-pitying nuis-
ance. With greater experience OF
life. you have more to put into
marriage now than you did 80
years ago. And if physical
adaptability was satisfactory be-
fore, it will be no less so now. Sex
may not play as large part in
your next marriage as it did in
the first one, but it should be a
natural and desirable part of your
life for many years yet.
Maybe you are a little less
adaptable in other respects. more
set in your ways. as you say, than
you were a generation ago, but
that should be balanced against
greater experience and greater
tolerance. You should at least be
old enough to give UP the idea
that some young brides hold, that
it is their duty to reform their
husbands!
It's not easy for a woman OF
your age to find a good husband
there aren't enough to go around
From your letter I Judge that you
have one in sight, If so, 60 ahead
