to U. N. commander Gen. Mark

ChinG's Peiping Radio and
heard in Tokyo:
Gen. Mark w. Clark. COM
mander in chief, United Ma
tions Command:
In your letter of reply dated
June 20, 1853, you admit that
the incident of coercing the
captive personnel of the Ko-
rean Peoples Army into leav-
ing the prisoner of war camps
and of forcible retention of
them by the Syngman Rhee
cliques is a serious, unfortu-
nate incident. It is right that
you do so. However. your ex-
planation and handling of this
incident are not satisfactory.
Every obvious fact proved that
the United Nations Command
cannot completely evade the
responsibility for this incident.
Your side was aware of the
premeditated scheme of the
South Korean government and
Army for this incident. OF
this there has been indications
long ago but your side did not
take any preventative measures.
Following the occurrence Of
the incident your side not only
failed to apply any effective
sanctions against the act of
coercing the prisoners of war
into leaving tn camps in vio-
lation of the prisoner of war
agreement on the part of the
South Korean security units
who are under control of the
United Nations Command. But

lowed the South Korean Sc
curity units to continue to
coerce the prisoners of war
into leaving the camps so that
the total of prisoners of war
retained forcibly by the Syng-
man Rhee clique has amounted
to more than $1,000. In this
are included more than SO cap
tured personnel of the Chinese
Peoples Volunteers. Both
Gen. Harrison, senior dele
gate of your side. in his letter
of June 18 and you in your let
ter of reply of June 20 indicate
that the efforts are being made
to recover the escaped pris-
onerS of war.
However, you assert at the
same time that it is impossible
to recover all the prisoners of
war. In actuality, your mill
tary troops are instructed not
to interfere with. any prisoners
who escape. but to allow them
TO be forced to report to the
military training centers run
by Syngman Rhee.

strive for an early armistice
and in view Of the assurances
given by your side, our side
agrees that delegations of both
sides meet at an appointed

of the implementation of the

Cotton Acre Limitation
Hit as Depression Maker

Representative A bern thy,
Democrat, of Mississippi told
Secretary of Agriculture Benson
yesterday that a l7.5-million-
acre limitation on next years
cotton crop would cause a de-
preston in cotton sections.
Urging that the prospective
crop controls in 1854 permit
planting of at least 21.5 million
acres, Mr.. Abernethy said in a
letter to Mr.. Benson he is dis
turbed by reports that the Agri-
culture Department would fix
allotments totaling 4 million
acres under the figure he thinks
wise.
Mr.. Abernethy said that in
1850, the last year controls were
enforced, allotments amounted
$4,000. Of this 18.250.000
acres was harvested with yield
of 9.9 million bales.
Raising a question as to how
much cotton might be produced
from a 7.5-million-acre allot-
ment, Mr.. Abernethy added:
such a low acreage allotment
would, in my judgment, be the
height of folly. 1t would create
a depression in the cotton belt
and send thousands of farmers
into bankruptcy or its equiva-
lent"
Controls on cotton production
we're dropped with the outbreak
of the Korean war but are due
to be reimpoSed next year.

Cattle Jam Market,
Most in 7 Years
BY the Associoted Press

CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-Cattle
traders at the Chicago stock
yards handled the largest re-
ceipts in seven years this week.
Receipts of an estimated So, 500
head were the heaviest since the
last week of August, 1916. Just
before price controls were re-
stored after a temporary lapse,
During that period. when $500
head were shipped, prices had
jumped to then-record high
marks.
Analysts gave the three day
Labor Day weekend last week as
a major reason for above-nor-
NAL arrivals. Shippers flooded
the market on the following
Monday.
Light receipts in the four days
following Labor Day helped boost
prices, which climbed as much
as $3.50 this week in the lower
grades. The rising prices in turn
encouraged stockmen to ship
their cattle.
Moreover. with large supplies
of cattle now ready for market
most growers preferred to make
large shipments in a steady mar
ket rather than risk losses in
coming weeks.
Another factor contributing to
the heavy receipts is the ap-
proach of the new cattle-buying
season, which acts annually as
a magnetic influence in attract
ing large shipments.
Market experts also noted that
since July l about 10 per cent
fewer cattle have been sent to
feed lots from the eight principal
markets than during the same
period a year ago.
