SEOUL, June S R-South Korea's
acting foreign minister today an
grily denounced the United Nations
and its latest Arnistice plan as
"dishonorable" and "cowardly."
He predicted bloodshed if Indian
troops or Communist representa-
tives enter South Korea after an
Armistice.
The U. N. plan, reported TO have
made a quick truce highly prob
able, has drawn uninhibited at

Hit Supply Lines
BY FORREST EDWARDS

SEOUL R-South Korean infan-
trymen battled with bayonets and
hand grenadeS today to win back
strategic Allied outposts which the
Reds may claim if an early armi-
stice halts the bloody three-year-
old Korean War.
The tough ROKs were fighting
hand-to-hand with Chinese and
North Koreans at some points
along the muddy EaSt-Central and
Eastern Fronts where bitter bat
ties have ragged all week.
In the air, U. S. Sabre jets dam
aged three Communist MICS in
battles over North Korea, while
fighter bombers pounded Red bat
tie front positions and supply lines.
Truce negotiators agreed in No
vember, 1851 that the cease-fire
demarcation line Would be along
a line OF contact across Korea.
Since then the main battle line
has changed little, but in recent
weeks the Reds have grabbed i'm
portant outposts in the west and
a number of advance Allied posi-
tons in the center and on the east
ern end of the line.
Chinese and North Koreans
Thursday hurled back six of seven
South Korean counterattacks in
Central and Eastern Korea and in
at least two sectors grabbed addi-
tional territory.
North and South Koreans were
reported locked in combat again

Insect Pests Rampage In Record
Hordes Through Part OF Country
BY The Associated Pres.

Two of mankind'S toughest in
sect foeS-army worms and tent
caterpillars-are voraciously ram
paging in record hordeS in several
sections of the country this year.
A check by Associated Press bu-
reaus brought sucl comments as
heaviest infestation in 20 years."
"worsening by the hour" 4.
million dollar damage to crops"
and comment by the U. S. Depart
of Agriculture that preliminary re-
suits of a survey now underway
showed a general outbreak" of
army worms from the East Coast
to the Mississippi.
At Watertown, N. Y, tent cater
pillars blanketed railroad tracks in
such hordeS that a freight train
was delayed IS minutes as wheels
skidded on the PUPPY mass. Mime
sofa was ready to 90 battle, with
the most complete pest control
program in 80 years, against what
experts have predicted win be the
states worst tent caterpillar in
feStation" in history.
Two other insect pests were re-
ported out in major force in more
limited areas. Massachusetts is
foliage across $4,000 acres; and the
grape steely beetle is plaguing
vineyards in an area around West
field, N. Y.
Serious infestations of army
worms were reported from Illinois,
Indiana, Ohio, Missouri, West Vir-
ginia, Kentucky, Maryland, Penn
sylvania, Virginia, Louisiana and
Tennessee.
Tent caterpillars are concentra-
ted in New Jersey, New York,
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Washington,
Georgia and Maine. No one could
say what the cause of the outbreak
was. but freakish weather was
mentioned as a possible reason in
some quarters.
The u. S. Department of Agri-
culture said its survey showed par
ticularly heavy army worm out
breaks in Maryland, Pennsylvania,
Indiana and Tennessee.
In addition, it reported damage
in Illinois and Indiana by the corn
flea beetle and harm to the cotton
crop in some sections of the South
by the boil weevil.
The army worms concentrate on
grass crops such as clover and
grains like barley, rye, wheat and
corn-but if supplies run out they
readily turn to tobacco, tomatoes
and other garden crops. They are

commit suicide from mere dis
gust"
Pyun, one Of the loudest critics
of the U. N. proposal, met with
President Syngman Rhee in the
morning, and with Rhee, U. S.
Ambassador Ellis Briggs and Gen.
Mark Clark, U. N. Far East CON-
mander, in the afternoon.
Before the afternoon meeting
Pyun said he did not believe Rhee
would accept Clark's advice that
the aging South Korean president
cooperate in concluding an armi.
Stice.
He said that even if Rhee might
try to cooperate, South Korea will
not, and can not, accept a plan
similar to a death sentence"
He said the u. S. has promised
more economic and military aid
for South Korea after an armistice
but added:
what is the good of any aid
after death? We viii thank them if
we live long enough"
South Korea has baked stubborn
ly at the new proposal, and some
government sources have threat
.ened to continue the war. Such
resistance could disrupt an armi-
stice and the opposition has been
thorn in U. N. and u. S. planning.
The officially-secret truce pro-
posal repeatedly would bring in
1000 Indian troops to guard the
1880 Chinese and North orean
prisoners who said they would re-
fuse to return to their homeIands.

tatives to make explanations"

Representatives Of two Soviet

South Korea has maintained
stoutly that India is not a true
neutral and tends to favor Com
muniSt aims. India, Sweden and
Switzerland have been nominated
also to the commission.

-Four Plead Not Guilty
In Arms Export Case
ey the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-Carlos
Prio Socarras, former president
of Cuba, and three other men
pleaded not guilty in Federal
Court yesterday to q charge OF
conspiring to export arms and
implements of war from the
United States without a license.
Mr.. Prio said he was perfectly
confident" he would be cleared

fore Judge David N. Edelstein

presidency was overthrown in
1852 by Fulgencio Batista, and

four and continued the existing
bail: $4,000 for Mr.. Prio. $25,-
900 for Mr.. Curt and 81 200 each
on the others.

Southerners Devise
Plan for Supports in
Flexible Price Setup
BY the Asseeiatsdr Press

CHICAGO. Dec. 15.-T h e
American Farm Bureau Fedora
ton may have found a way to-
day to allow Southern farmers
to have high rigid price supports
most of the time within the
framework of a flexible price
support system.
Delegates from Southern cot
ton and peanut producing States
came to the federation's con-
vention here this week insisting
that present price floors be con-
tinued indefinitely for their
crops.
Although apparently outnum-
bered in delegate voting power.
the Southern leaders gained
much of their demands In reso-
lutions tentatively adopted by a
convention policy-drafting COM
mittee.
Won't Back Two-Price Plans.
Meanwhile, the policymakerS
let it be known that the Farm
Bureau will not indorse pro-
posed two-price plans for deal
ing with marketing and price
support problems for major ex-
port crops such as cotton. wheat
and rice.
A national agricultural ad-
visory committee appointed by
President Eisenhower to help
Secretary of Agriculture Benson
draw up G. o. P. administration
farm proposals for Congress is
known to look with favor on
dual price programs.
The National Grange, a sister
farm organization, also Endorsed
multiple price plans at its recent
convention at Burlington. VT.
Bureau leaders said dual price
plans would be interpreted by
other countries as export dump
ing" with a result that the
United States would lose friends
abroad.
Under a dual price program
domestically consumed portions
of affected crops would be sup
ported at relatively high level
and the remainder of the supply
would be offered in world mar
ketS at lower prices.
To Renew Plea on Tariffs.
The bureau has insisted in
the past-and is expected to
renew that insistence at this
| convention-that broader mar
kets for United States farm
products be gained through pro-
motion of foreign trade by low
ering tariffs and other trade
barriers.
Bureau leaders made no secret
| of the fact they hope to talk
Mr.. Benson out Of dual price
proposals. Mr.. Benson was
scheduled to address the con-
vention tomorrow.
