Communists May Return More POWs Than Promised

PANMUNJOM, R - Another 400 LIN. soldiers returned from North Korean stockades today amid indications the Reds will send back some Americans hand ed jail terms and possibly more prisoners than they originally promised.
 Two of 133 Americans who crossed into friendly hands today said some fellow Americans sen fenced to prison for ''instigating against the peace" were awaiting repatriation, possibly in a day or two, at Kaesong. Kaesong, just north of Panmunjom, is the Red holding point for Allied POWs.
 The apparent switch in the Communist attitude toward these prisoners followed protests by the LIN. Command that the Reds were holding back dozens of men on trumped-up charges.
 Along with 133 Americans, the Reds returned IT British and 250 South Koreans today, the 22nd day of the big exchange of war prisoners. And 15O Americans and 25O South Koreans will be handed over Thursday, the Reds said.
 From the first day of prisoner exchange, returning Americans told of men being handed armis- tice eve prison terms from one to three years for infractions.
 There>was still no official word when the Reds will hand over their prize prisoner, Maj. Gen. William F. Dean, commander of the US. 24th Division, who was captured in the early days of the war.

Alaska Steam1M May Start Run From Frisco To Hawaii

SEATTLE, LR - The Alaska Steamship Company's biggest pas senger ship, the Aleutian, is scheduled tentatively for year round operation between San Francisco and Honolulu, the Seat tie Post-Intelligencer learned to- day.
 The Hawaiian Pacific Steam ship Lines have listed the 305- passenger vessel for regular ser vice on their Hawaiian economy run from Dec. 5 to Aug. 31, 1854. Such operation would knock the Aleutian out of next years Alas ka trade and slash the number of available Alaska steamship liners to three.
 In earlier discussion of the All eutian's transfer to Hawaiian ser vice, it had been generally sup posed the 6,361-ton ship would be used there only in the winter and returned to Seattle for her regu- lar summer Alaska runs.
 However, in answer to ques- tions, Jack c. Comyn, vice presi- dent of Hawaiian-Pacific's Seattle agent, the Girdwood Shipping Co.,, declared:
 "We hope to offer this service on a year-round basis, providing the passenger traffic is there to warrant it."
 Built in 1906, the Aleutian has been operated by Alaska Steam since 1880.

Red Maneuver Will Force JUN. To Vote On Soviet Plan lst

UNITED NATIONS, NY, tR - Russia Wednesday came up with a parliamentary maneuver to force the LIN. to vote first on the Soviet proposal for inviting six fighting countries. and nine ''neu- trals" to the Korean peace con- ference.
 The Soviet move came as the General Assembly's Donation pol itical committee began discussing in detail a half-dozen resolutions dealing with the Korean problem.
 Voting was expected to begin tomorrow.
 Soviet Delegate Andrei Y. Wish insky had put in a revised propos- al only yesterday listing the 15 countries Russia wants to seat at the conference. But under normal voting procedure, this would be voted on last since it was the last resolution submitted.
 Vishinsky, however, submitted his list again this morning in the form of an amendment to a reso- lution sponsored by the United States and IA other countries that fought for the JUN. in Korea.
 The latter proposal, recom- mending that all the fighting countries be invited to the con- ference, had been introduced first and had priority in the voting. But assembly rules provided that amendments must be voted first. This means the Soviet list would be put ahead of the U.S.-spon- sored proposal.
 There are separate resolutions on the participation of Russia and India. The US. is opposing India's participation, but has agreed to support a proposal for Russia's inclusion ''provided that the other side desires it."

Committee, Impressed By The Will Of A People Who Know
 What They Want, Returns To US

ANCHORAGE, R-The Alaska statehood hearings conducted by Senate Committee on Territories and Insular Affairs concluded here yesterday. Five members of the committee left last night to return to the States.
 The chairman, Sen. Butler, re- mained and may visit other Alas ka points.
 The senators expressed the opinion the Alaska hearings gave them facts to use in the next Sen ate debate. They said they were impressed with the caliber of AL askans and with the will of a people who know what they want.
 They haven't got statehood yet, but Alaskans have been cautioned against having too many counties when, and if, they do get state hood.
 The caution was voiced by Sen. Anderson O-NND, and quickly seconded by two fellow members.
 Sen. Butler recommended four counties, following the pattern of the territory's present judicial divisions. Sen. Clements O-Ky) agreed, saying his own state is burdened with the government of 120 counties.
 An anonymous citizen who op- poses statehood for the territory wrote the committee Tuesday that he was afraid to testify for fear of reprisals and recrimination: Sen. Butler urged the letter wri- ter to step forward so his testi- mony could be included in the record.
 The senators heard 57 witness es in Anchorage, only one of whom was against statehood. De- tails of Monday hearings on P. 2)-

Sen.ButlerInvOlved In Libel Suit
 Between Alaskans

ANCHORAGE, RASen. Hugh Butler, chairman of the Senate Interior Committee, got involved in a $175,0OO libel suit between two Alaskans here Monday.
 Butler, here to preside at state hood hearings, was summoned to the office of Stanley McCutcheon to give a deposition in connection with McCutcheon's suit against territorial Senator Marcus Jensen of Douglas.
 X Butler refused to testify, claim ing congressional immunity.
 McCutcheon, an Anchorage at torney and former speaker of the territorial House of Representa- lives who resigned last week as Democratic national committee man, said he will institute con- tempt proceedings on the conten- ton that Butler is key witness in the libel case.
 McCutcheon contends Jensen provided Butler with inaccurate statements which were inserted in the Congressional Record in an effort to postpone Alaska state hood in 1850.
 The record shows that the Neb- raska senator stated Alaska state hood should await an inquiry into the conduct of some of Alaska's officials.
 Butler has been an opponent of Alaska statehood legislation, all though he has said he is holding the present hearings with an open mind" While he was legis- lator, McCutcheon assailed Butler on the floor of the House.

Police Nab Stenographer In Brutal Staying of 14-Year-Old Girl

NEW YORK, R - A pretty Massac sachusetts stenographer, sob- ping hysterically, admitted to po- lice today she killed the 14-year- old sister of a former boy friend who broke off with her and mar ried another woman.
 Police quoted petite Mildred McDonald, 25, of Somerville, Mass, as saying she shot the girl, Mary Di Rocco, on Monday after the child told her the brother was happy with his new wife.
 A sharp-eyed policeman, Patrol man George F. Grace, spotted Miss Mcdonald near Times Square last night and took her into custody. He recognized her from an Associated Press tele- photo he had seen in the New York Daily News only minutes before.
 For 10 hours, the blond steno- grapher protested her innocence. Then near dawn, police said, she admitted: T shot her several times"

American Party
 Fails To Conquer Mt. Goodwin Austen

KARACHI, Pakistan, R- De- layed reports from Kashmir said today Mt. Goodwin Austen K2) has defeated efforts of a nine-man American expedition to climb to it's unconquered peak and a geolo- gist lost his life in the attempt.
 The victim was identified as Arthur K. Gilkey of New York. The accounts said he was killed while descending from the expe- dition's Camp No. 8 to Camp No. 7 and later was buried in the Kara koran Mountains with 10-foot- high stone marking his grave.
 The reports said Robert w. Craig, a ski instructor from Col orado Springs, and a physicist, George R. Bell of Los A1amos, N.M., were seriously injured, suf- fering from frostbite.
 Details were scant, but storms and low temperatures have har- assed the men since they reached their base camp early in July to tackle the 28,25O-foot peak in northern Kashmir.
 It is the worlds second highest peak and the highest remaining unconquered after the sealing of 29,2O2-foot-high Mt. Everest by two members of a British expedi- ton last May.
 The American party is headed by Dr. Charles Houston of Exeter, NH, who calls himself a "small town doctor"

''Pre-AtOmic Charter"
 Of United Nations Called Seriously Inadequate"

BOSTON, LR- Secretary of State Dulles said today the 'pre-atomic age charter of the United Nations contains "serious inadequacies" and needs to have important alter ations.
 In a speech prepared for the American Bar Association, Dulles said he believes the administra- ton can achieve a better world in the face of the fact that man now has the power ito destroy him. self" But he said the LIN. would have to be changed to make this possible.
 He recalled that the charter
 drafted and signed at San Francisco in early 1945 "when hone of us knew of the atomic bomb which was to fall on Hiro- shima on August 6, 1945," and he added:
 "The charter is thus pre-atom- ic age charter In this sense it was obsolete before it actually came into force"
