waited and prayed until daylight.
about 1880 that morning they
started shelling and we went on
the hill and fought it out with
their weapons.
Foe Streamed Up Hill.
"The first man I had killed I
was afraid at first, but it had to
be one Of us so it was him. After
that it was easy. I had killed
about nine Of them and the other
Chinks started up the hill. It
looked like there were a million
of them.
1--WE had to move and move fast
so we pulled back to where we
had prayed so hard for daylight.
BY this time the Chinks were on
the very top and some captain
called for our artillery right on
us to keep the Chinks off. Some
of us were wounded by our own
artillery.
"But soon our artillery had
stopped and the Chinks were Just
starting. This was about 9 am.
Some of the shells came in the
hole with some of the men and
that was the last of them. Now
all we were doing was waiting for
the tanks to come and get us.

and I heard a sound coming. I
yelled let's get out before it's too
late but he didn't hear me so 1

worth much right then, and the
rocket landed right in the little
hole.
"The lieutenant was dead and
I didn't have a hole.
Luckily, the tanks came Just
then and At happy men went
yelling and screaming Thank
God There were 200 men in the
company when we started out but
there were only Al able to run
back. All that wasn't dead got
back to the hospital.
Il wasn't hit bad at all, in fact
I didn't even bleed.
This morning one fellow said
there were only nine men left in
our company. I don't ever want
to go through that again."

An armed man, expected to at

The prowler, John j. Price, 43

by Roanoke Detective Sergt. Ker-

Lynchburg authorities received a

kept watch in the Quality Dairy.
Shortly after midnight, the off,

"Since there is no way in which
we can change our position and
since it cannot be reconciled with
your present demands, there seems

He said there was no need for
daily meetings and suggested the

U. N. warplanes flew over the Pan

interview last night he said spe-
special session in the election year
1948 produced nothing construc-
tive. It would be the same this
year, he said.
Both Mr.. Javits and Mr.. Fleming
limited that the administration has
over-dramatized the drought that
has hurt some farmers in the
Southeast and New England. The
country's economic troubles, they
said in separate statements. can
be traced to the administration s
own doorsteps.
Javits Assails Policies.
Mr.. Javits, speaking for his big
city constituents, said the admin
istration's policies of price sup
ports for farm products helped
keep food prices high.
1T should be clear to every
American that the imitation in
food prices is Official imitation
sponsored by the administration, u
Mr.. Javits said. 1T is not possible
to deliver to city dwellers or
promises Of lower food prices un-
less the administration is pre-
pared to adopt a more even-hand-
ed position on this subject than
it has taken before"
Mr.. Fleming. as spokesman for
the influential Farm Bureau, said
Rather than admit the truth
about the fraud of price and wage
controls, the OPS officials see an
urgent need for tighter price con-
trolls to cover up the Governments
free-spending fiscal policy which
lis feeding the fires of imitation and
forcing some prices UP. 80.
What Arnall is doing Is to use
the widely publicized drought as
an excuse to try to place the blame
for rising prices on Congress. How
ever. all economists worthy of the
name, concede that the principal
causes Of the current inflationary
threat are deficit Government
spending and uncurbed consumer
credit, which has increased the
money in circulation in relation to
the supply of consumer goods"

Jordan Ends Reign
OF TaIaI and Makes
His Son Monarch
BY the Associated Press

to end the reign of ailing King
Talal and proclaim his 17-year-
old son. Crown Prince Hussein,
monarch.
Both houses of parliament con-
vened to hear reports about the
kings health. The government
recommended that TalaPS reign
be ended.
Reported Mentally Ailing.
Talal has been reported mental
ly ailing. Beirut reports predicted
the government meeting Ito study
the kings health" and the Subse-
quent abdication move.
Informants in contact with the
Jordan government first told of
the abdication plans. Beirut dip
lomatic and government sources
and high Jordanian officials con-
drmed them.
The Al year old Talal re-
portedly is suffering from schizo-
phrenia (split personality and
was under treatment in Switzer-
land in July, 1851, when the
assassination of his father. King
Abdullah. brought him to the
throne.
He returned to his homeland
and took the throne that Sep
tember. but last May went back
to Europe. On June the Jordan
cabinet decided the Kings health
was going from bad to worse"
and established a council of three
Senators to exercise the royal
powers.
Had Returned Home.
On the urging of Premier Tew-
fix Abul Huda Pasha and other
Jordan officials, Talal returned
home to Amman July 3 for treat
ment there and the council has
continued to act in his stead.
Since then, reports of his impend-
ing abdication have been cur
rent.
Speculation persisted in Beirut
that one result would be some
sort of federal union of Jordan
and Iraq under the Hashemite
crown now. worn by his relative,
17-year-old King Feisal II of Iraq.
Such a union was a chief ambi-
ton of King Abdullah.
