Impossible Surgery
Survived by Infant
BY the Associated Press

SEATTLE, Oct. %. A =
month-old baby. victim Of rare
heart ailment, has survived an
Impossible" operation and is
apparently on the road to a nor
NAL, healthy life.
DR.. Robert A. Tidwell, direc-
tor Of heart services for Chill
dren's Orthopedic Hospital, gave
the details this week in the case
of Jerrold Cole, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Richard j. Cole of Seattle.
Jerrold, born last February
27, had defect known as the
infantile type of correlation Of
the aorta, the large blood vessel
carrying blood from the heart to
the body. In this condition, a
construction blocks the aorta,
close to the heart, so that blood
cannot flow through normally.
Operations on adults suffering
from the same condition had
been successful, DR.. Tidwell said,
but medical authorities had be-
lieved an operation of this type
to be Impossible" on infants. In
previous cases. the child either
died of heart failure or died I'M
der surgery.

Police Urge Control
OF Escort Bureaus
And Dance Studios

The District Commissioners
Regulations Committee today
was studying a police proposal
that such enterprises as escort
bureaus, friendship clubs and
dance studios be brought under
municipal supervision.
The recommendations came
from Metropolitan Police Chief
Robert v. Murray on the advice
of his morals squad. The city
now requires no licensing or reg
ulation of these organizations.
Licenses Favored.
Division Inspector Roy E. Blick
feels so strongly about the mat
ter that he favors requiring fees
up to $4,000 per year Ito dis
courage these organizations
from coming to the Nations
Capital"
Inspector Blick requested that
any applicant having criminal
record be denied a license. He
pointed out that one escort
bureau here is run by a man on
five-year parole for stealing
Government checks from mail
boxes. Complaints have been re-
ceived of his furnishing girls for
"lewd and immoral purposes,
Inspector Blick added.
Involve Murders.
He cited cases in other cities
where the so-called friendship
clubs "are little more than col
lection agencies for the insurance
of murdered victims of lonely
hearts" plots.
This type of operation. he said
is a particular hazard to Ma
tional security.
There is always the danger
that men and women employed
in sensitive Government jobs
may unwittingly be drawn into
associations with persons whose
interests are inimical to those OF
this country" Inspector Blick
warned.

Reds Defeat JUN. Troops In Planned Program Raid
By STAN GARTER

SEOUL, R - Allied fighter bombers ripped into Communist battlefront positions today after JUN. troops took licking on the western Korean front in an elab- orately planned program" raid.
 The 412 hour raid was the heaviest ground action of the new year. Allied infantry, tanks, flame throwerS, artillery and planes were thrown into the unsuccess- ful assault on Spud Hill.
 High brass and correspondents provided in advance with a pamphlet describing each phase of the attack - watched from nearby bunkers. Called Opera ton Smack" it had been planned since Jan. 19. But the Chinese Reds were ready. They caught the charging U. N. infantrymen in a deadly crossfire
 Then the Allied troops tried to burn out the Reds with flame throwers. However, in many in stances, the flamethroWerS ran out of fuel. AP correspondent Forrest Edwards reported from the scene - at the southern end of T-bone Hill - that a hail of artillery shells and napalm also failed to dislodge the Communists.
 One of the Allied wounded told Edwards:
 If we could only have had more flamethrowers we could have burned right through them. We were doing a good job but suddenly there weren't any more flamethroWers."
 An Eighth Army spokesman de- clined to report Allied casualties but estimated 95 Chinese were killed.
 After the raid, Fifth Air Force and Navy carrier planes swarmed over the entire front.

Mckay Has Recommended Only Governor of Hawaii

WASHINGTON, R-Secretary Of the Interior Mckay today named Raymond Davis, an insur- ance executive, as an assistant to the secretary and said he expects appointments for other top jobs in the department to start coming out this week.
 Davis, 62, has been assistant to the president and vice president of the General Insurance Com pany of America. His Interior post pays little over $1O,0OO a year.
 Mckay in an interview said he had not so far recommended any appointees to President EiSen- hover except for a man to be governor of Hawaii.
 He said his recommendation that Gov. Ernest Gruening Of Alaska continue in office until about April l had also be e n agreed to.
 He would not reveal his choice for the Hawaii post.
 Mckay made his comments s when asked about rurnors that he had recommended a slate Of top Interior officials and it had ebeen rejected by the White House as having contained too many Taft Republicans.
 He said: T have not made any recommendations that have been turned down by the Whi t e House"

Republicans, Shy On Patronage, gge,
 Eve POstrnasters
By WILLIAM F. ARBoGAsT

WASHINGTON, LR-House Re publicans, shy on patronage for 20 years, are casting a jaundiced eye at a law which bars them from control of thousands of post master jobs.
 The law, enacted 15 years ago when Democrats were calling the shots, had the effect of giving postmasters lifetime Civil Service tenure. It didn't bother the Re- publicans at the time because, as the party out of power, they were n't able to reward the politically faithful with patronage jobs.
 But it's different now that a Republican occupies the White House and the COP controls Con- gress.
 Normally, postmaster appoint ments are the patronage of House members of the dominant politi- cal party.
 Postmasterships are about the only choice of patronage House members have, and many Repub- licans don't like the idea of being barred from controlling them.
 Openly, Republicans aren't say ing what they intend to do about it, but privately they are consid- ering repeal of the law.
 One approach, COP spokesmen said, would be for Congress to enact a law declaring all post masterships vacant and ordering new examinations to fill them. That would give Republican ap- plicants chance, provided they finished among the top three con- testants in a Civil Service exam ination. Appointments are made from the top three, with veter- ans having priority.

Mystery Fire Cuts S5,6OO,OOO Empress of Canada

LIVERPOOL, England, tR - A mystery fire ragged through the docked liner Empress of Canada and left the 20,235 ton vessel lying on her side today, a gutted and smoldering ruin.
 A spokesman for the Canadian Pacific Railway Co.,, her owner, described the $5,6OO,OOO ship as "total loss"
 Only dozen workmen were aboard the Empress, which was undergoing an annual overhaul, when the fire broke out amidships yesterday afternoon All scram- bled to safety.
 Police Supt Herbert Balmer made preliminary investigation of the fast-spreading blaze and asked the British Home Office for the assistance of scientists. ''The possibility of sabotage" he told reporters, cannot be ruled out"
 More than 200 firemen with 40 pieces of apparatus fought the blaze, but it quickly got out of hand and enveloped the ships entire superstructure.
 Flames shot high as portholes melted and deck plates collapsed. The yardarm of the mast cracked off and fell across a shed on the dock. Finally the ship began list ing sharply from the hundreds of tons of water poured into her and the firemen were called ashore to let the blaze burn itself out.
 The ship could carry 700 pas sengers and had a crew of $50. Company officials said she had been fully booked for the season to carry coronation visitors be- tween America and England.
