Ford, New Delegate to U.N.,
Says u. SIS Tired Of Spending

He and Mrs. Ford live at a
midtown luxury hotel and get
the Governments regular SO daily
allowance - which h probably
doesn't pay their tips. Their three
children are back home in
Crosse Pointe, Mich.
Most of Mr.. Ford's real work
is done in the lounges and COM
mittee rooms of U. N. headquar-
tiers, and at the lunches he gives
every week for foreign delegates
at an uptown club.
His Office is for desk work and
callers. Mr.. Ford leans against
the wall in his swivel chair, rests
one foot on an open desk drawer,
and talks to them as frankly
as possible for a young indus
trialist- turned diplomat. A tall,
bulky man just over So, he has
the build of a football tackle
and a manner like your own in
Surance agents.
Two Specific Assignments.
A Navy veteran of World War
II, Mr.. Ford hasn't been under
heavy verbal fire yet. AS United
States representative on the as
Sembly'S economic committee,
his Russian counterpart is G. P.
Arkadyev, an economics pro-
fessor and an old U. N. hand.
They exchange smiles and hand
shakes at the start Of each meet
ing. Mr.. Arkadyev hasn't been
at any of Ford's lunches, but
there probably will be a United
States cocktail party later in
the session to which the Soviet
bloc delegates will be asked.
Mr.. Ford has two specific as
signments on behalf of the
United States delegation: To ex-
plain and back up its stand on
the general technical aid pro-
gram, and to help work out a
special one for Libya-the young
nation on the North African
coast that is a kind of U. N.
protege. The first job is about
done, with the passage by the
committee of a resolution in
pretty much the form that the
United States favored. The sec

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. oct.
15.-Henry Ford, II says Ameri-
cans are weary of big-scaIe
spending abroad-they want a
balanced budget and lower taxes.
IT see in the paper that the
budget director is afraid our
budget can't be balanced" the
new delegate to the y. N. said in
an interview. ST think people are
pretty well tired of giving away
a lot of money.
THAT doesn't mean we won't
give technical help. The Presi-
dent has said that If we get
disarmament we could put money
into that. That's still our
policy"
He said he knows of no more
specific planning along that line.
President Eisenhower made the
suggestion in a widely hailed
speech last April.
Has Experience in Field.
Mr.. Ford has plenty of ex-
perience in International giving.
As chairman of the family
endowed Ford Foundation, he had
his eye on the outgo of $25
million for public development
projects abroad in the last two
years. That is about half as much
as the whole U. N. spends for
the same purpose.
The Ford Motor Co. itself op-
crates in 80 countries, he pointed
out, "and we can't always get
dollars back these days"
For the current meeting of
the United Nations assembly, Mr..
Ford is devoting little time to
his job as president of one of
the worlds biggest industrial en-
terprises. But he has no doubt
what his permanent work is.
My business is making cars"
he says firmly. my job here is
over when this session is over"
Works From CubbyhOIe.
Meanwhile he works from a
cubbyhole on the 18th floor
of an Office building at the
foot of New York's Park avenue,
where the United States delega-
tion has it's headquarters.

to their Red-ruled homeland.
The North Korean POWs will
be turned over to a neutral ma
tons repatriation commission
which will allow Red agents to

to convince them to return
home.
Mr.. Rhee's message was read
to the prisoners by 1t. Gen. Won
Yong Duk, provost marshal gen.
eral, at allied prisoner camps in
Nonsan and Koje.
Mr.. Rhee'S message said:
ut was not our intention to
keep more than 5000 anti-Com-
munist Korean prisoners con-
tinually detained while the ma
jority of such prisoners were re-
leased earlier. We regret very
much that your prolonged de-
tention has been unavoidable be-
cause of various obstacles we
encountered at the time of re-
leasing prisoners.
"The situation has changed
thereafter and now your release
has to be effected through only
certain procedures. Nevertheless,
I am strongly confident that
the issue of your release will be
successfully solved within a few
months and I wish to advise you
to persevere. whatever difficulties
you might have to face in the
meantime.

of Korea and United Nations
representatives, you will be given
through individual hearings a

Talbot Congratu|ates
Far East Air Force,
Tells Of Task Ahead
By John A. Giles

Secretary of the Air Force
Talbot today congratulated the
Far East Air Forces on the
Tremendous part" they played
in the Korean war, but added
that they would be required to
remain on the job for some
time. ..---...
I'm some respects. the period
you are now entering will be
more difficult than that through
which you have come" Mr.. Tai
bolt said in a dispatch to Gen.
o. P. Weyland, Far East air
commander.
Undoubtedly you hope. as I
do, that the truce will lead ulti-
mately to a peace that is real
and reasonably secure" he con-
tinued. But today, Chinese and
Korean Communist armies still
stand in North Korea and be-
hind them is the Chinese Com
munist Air Force with its more
than 1000 planes.
Notes Russian Power.
Furthermore, Soviet Russia
still has more than 5000 addi-
tional tactical airplanes deployed
in the Far East. In Siberia the
Soviets have bases from which
their long-range bombers could
operate against Japan and the
United States"
The Secretary also pointed to
the threat of Communist armies
in Indo-China.
although you and I hope for
peace, the Communists have
taken no action as yet that re-
duces their ability to resume
aggression" he said. cit will be
harder to maintain vigilance
now than when you were keyed
to daily combat, but it will be
as necessary as ever that you
do So"
Will continue Rotation.
Mr.. Talbot asked the airmen
to avoid friction and incidents
and told them that for the pres
ent, the Air Force would con-
tinue it's individual rotation poll
cies. Those policies provide that
each arman becomes eligible for
rotation upon completion of a
fixed normal tour, but actually
returns only after his replace
ment is available.
The Secretary said the Far
East Air Forces had made enemy
supply movements "a nightmare"
and estimated 10000 enemy
troops had been killed or wound
ed by planes.
1873 MICS Destroyed.
He also stated that the Air
Force had destroyed more than
1000 enemy aircraft, including
1913 Russian made MIG-15s. de-
stroyed $1,000 supply vehicles,
10000 railway cars and 1900
tanks.
He called attention to the fact
that United Nations ground ele-
ments had been freed Of enemy
air attacks.
But on the other hand. he
said, approximately 1000 United
States aircraft were destroyed
by enemy action, more than two
thirds by enemy groundfire.

The New York Giants famed
umbrella" defense. used so ef-
fectively in past years in the Ma
tional Football League, leaked a
bit last year. Emlen Tunnel,
Giants defensive back, said at a
football panel discussion yester-
day at Howard University.
1T was just one of those
things" he said. 1--WE used the
same pattern of defense plays as
in former years, but for some un-
explained reason it just wasn't as
effective" He added that the
loss of Otto Schnellbacher, who
resigned, hurt to a certain ex-
tent.
Tunnel also cited the Giants
Steelers game last year in which
the New Workers were soundly
beaten, 63-7. In that game, both
Chuck Conerly and Fred Ben
nerS, quarterbacks, were out with
injuries and the team had to be
directed by a halfback, Tom
Landry, who had never played
the position before.
Asked by one of the group who
was the toughest to bring down,
he laughingly said "all of them, :"
but then pointed out Steve Van
Buren, now a coach with the
Eagles, and Charley Trippi, when
playing as a halfback.
Also on the panel with Tunnel
was Andy Davis of the Redskins.
He explained the defense used
by the Washington team as COM
