There are now eight Army in

Food Plan Is Mistake,
London Times Declares

LONDON, July 25 P.-The
London Times said today the
Western program for supplying
food to East Berliners is a mis-
take which has risked losing
substantial gains for all Ger
mans at the cost of small benf1ts
for some"
The newspaper, which often
reflects official government
thinking, said editorially: "As
time goes on, the political aspect
of the enterprise must increas-
ingly overshadow the humani-
tartan. Counter measures by
Communists could insure that
the lives of East German citi-
zens will be harder and not
easier as a result.
"At the moment when the
three Western governments are
inviting Russia to take part in
talks about Germany's future. +"
the newspaper continued, 1T
seems a mistake to exacerbate
temperS.
while the altruistic impulse
behind President Eisenhower's
offer of food cannot be ques-
toned" the editorial said, lit
comes too hard on the heels of
the Berlin riots to seem other
than a reward for them. This
makes it easier for the Com
munists to support their propa-
ganda misinterpretation of the
events of July IT,"

Mayor Sets Up Relief

By the Associoted Pres.

BERLIN, July 25.-Hungry,
jobless persons from the Soviet
sector today f1ocked to a new
West Berlin food give-away. 1t
was organized by Mayor Willy
KreSSmann to prove Soviet High
Commissioner Vladimir Sem
yenov was wrong in claiming
unemployment does not exist
in East Berlin"
The Kreuzberg Borough Mayor
personally supervised distribu-
ton of food gifts valued at five
marks ($1.19) each to Eastern
applicants who showed their un-
employment or charity cards.
The aid for Soviet sector job
less was set up by Mayor Kress-
mann after Mr.. Semyenov de-
nounced his "relief market" of
a week ago, saying it was run by
agents plotting a new revolt
against the Soviet zone govern
ment. The "relief market" had
sold milk, vegetables and fruits
to East Germans at a fifth of
regular prices.
A million dollar distribution of
free food for Soviet zone needy
will begin Monday by Western
city authorities, based on United
States Government help. Mr.
Semyenov's protest against food
gifts was rejected by American
High Commissioner James B.

Republicans Lose
Their Majority in
Senate Temporarily

Senator Charles w. Tobey,
Republican, of New Hampshire
died Unexpectedly last night at
Bethesda Naval Hospital of a
heart ailment.
Senator Tobey, who observed
his 73d birthday Wednesday,
became known to millions of
television fans two years ago as
the barbed-tongued star of the
Senate Crime Investigating
Committee hearings.
Death came after a heart at
tack at the Capitol at $40 pm.
The illness was described as
coronary thrombosis, or a blood
clot.
His third wife, the former Mrs.
Lillian Crompton whom he mar
ried last September, was with
him when he died.
With his death, the Senate
lineup stood at At Republicans,
AZ Democrats and one Independ-
ent. But New HampShire's Gov.
Hugh Gregg. a Republican. un-
doubtedly will name a Repub-
lican successor and thus restore
the G o. P. majority.
The Senate, hoping to wind
up this session next week, had
planned to work all day, but
adjourned out of respect to Sen
ator Tobey after 40 minutes of
eulogy.
Majority Leader Knowland
announced the Senate will hold
a memorial service at pm. next
Thursday.
In a resolution for adjourn
ment. Senator Bridges of New
Hampshire called his colleague
a crusader for what he be-
lieved in"

soldiers apparently believed it a
Czech armored reconnaissance

A German border policeman
who talked with the group shortly
after their escape said the young

this story:
Two years ago he decided to

to operate it for the Communist

necessarily absent" Senator
Morse said he was told by SEN
ator Tobey.
Among messages of condo
lence was one by President Eli
senhower to Mrs. Tobey:
Il was shocked and grieved at
the sudden passing of your hu-
band. My knowledge of Senator
Tobey's tireless efforts in the
public service prompts me to pay
tribute to the contributions
which he made throughout a
long and useful career. He gave
of himself with devotion and
self1essneSs. Mrs. Eisenhower
joins me in heartfelt sympathy"
One of the first to comment
was Senator Kefauver, Demo-
crat. of Tennessee, chairman of
the widely travelled and televised
Senate Crime Investigating Com
mittee of two years ago on which
Senator Tobey made such a hit.
There will never be another

Police lacked the car up and
the District Heights Rescue
Squad took the victim to the
hospital.
Sergt. Bond said that appar-
emily the brakes slipped and
Mr.. Lucas ran in front of the
car and tried to hold it back.
The car knocked him on his
back and passed over him, fas-
tening him between the front
wheels undercarriage and the
crown of the road. The car
rolled 180 feet, dragging him
with it, until it hit high place
in the road and stopped. with
his body serving as a chock.
Sergt. Bond said the man ap-
parently was under the car 10

to be performed today.

Peiping Reports Drive
Botters South Koreans

TOKYO. Saturday, July 25 (A1.
"A Peiping broadcast today
tended to bear out reports that
last weeks big Red drive in
Central Korea was motivated in
part by desire to discourage
South Korean troops from fight
ing on alone after an armistice.
The broadcast, monitored in
Tokyo, said at one point:
"The South Korean forces
units of puppet Syngman Rhee
who has been clamoring to go
it alone to the Yalu River -
suffered particularly heavy losses.
"Rhee's 5th and 9th Divisions
were battered and crushed be-
yond recognition"
The broadcast claimed 70,122
enemy troops were put out of
action" and that 62,818 were
South Koreans.

was given for the reported
change in plans, but Korean
sources said Kim might not
travel to Panmunjom, which
could account for the reported

United States Ambassador

message from Secretary of State
Dulles to South Korean Presi-

answered a message from Mr..

QUANTICO MARINE BASE,
Va, July 25.-White House Press
Secretary James C. Hagerty an
nounced here today the assign
ment of the Sd Marine Division
to the Far East.
The announcement was made
during President Eisenhower
visit to a conference here of
top civilian and military leaders
of the Defense Department. 1t
came amid speculation of an
early truce in Korea.
Mr.. Hagerty declined to say
whether the assignment of the
Sd Marines meant either an ad-
dition to or a replacement of
any of the divisions now fight
ing in Korea or stationed in
Japan.
"All I can say is that the Sd
Marine Division has been as
signed to Gen. Mark Clark Gar
East commander" Mr.. Hagerty
told reporters at a news con-
ference.
He added the division had
been assigned lin the last four
days"
