Benson Does Not Favor Direct Cattle Price Supports

WASHINGTON, R- Secretary of Agriculture Benson today told a caravan of cattlemen, seeking government support for cattle prices, that he has an "op n mind" But he said a support pro- gram would raise tremendous ob- stacles.
 Benson drew applause from the $50 cattlemen from 30 states when he said he would consider the facts supporting their request for price supports on cattle.
 But. only a handful of cattle men applauded when the Agri- culture Secretary said that so far he is inclined to believe that an indirect program, such as is al ready underway, is the more prac- tical and feasible policy of sup porting cattle prices.
 The government is now buying meat for school lunch and other programs in indirect support of the market.
 Benson cited past efforts to put rigid government support prices under perishable goods. He said a program was dismal failure when it was tried for hogs, and a ''fasco" when applied to potatoes.
 'I don't say it's not possible for cattle," he added, ''but it would be terrible thing if we got into this program and found it would mt work"

Erickson Placers Close Down Operations For '53

Erickson Placers, Inc, have closed down operations for the season on Bangor, Butterfield and Jarosa Creeks.
 The short season, which was experimental with new type of equipment, has yielded a substan- tial amount of information dur ing the operation which consisted of a series of trenchings across the various creeks at strategic points selected to give the most information
 While complete valuations per yard are not yet available, we have values both in scheelite and gold already ascertained which will warrant future operations, <" stated Walter Erickson, who heads the organization.
 The jig method of recovery was used on one exploration and it proved very satisfactory, clearly pointing the way to successful re- working of much of the available old workings on many of creeks and especially where secondary mineral is associated with gold values.
 MT. Erickson declared that the new company is most appreciative of the coperation given them by the business people in Nome and that he plans to return early next spring to lay out the years oper- ation.

NNRC Splits Over
 Forcing POWs To Listen To Reds

PANMUNJOM, R-The strife torn Communist efforts to per suade 22,4OO ex-Red soldiers to go home appeared near an end to- day, stymied by an open split in the Prisoner Repatriation Com mission over whether to force the POWs to listen to the Red per suasion.
 It. Gen. KS. Thimayya, Indian chairman of the commission, said tonight the commissions chances of success in it's mission are every small"
 "The situation is now very ser ious, Thirnayya told newsmen after 2-hour and 8-minute com mission meeting debate on a let ter stating the rival Communist and non-C Communist views.
 Thimayya said the letter would not be made public for several days.
 Observers have speculated that the Communists may be seeking a way out of the explanations after two days of talks with 931 Chinese won only 21 prisoners back to the Red fold.
 The commission is split over whether to force the prisoners to listen to the Red interviews. Red satellites Poland and Czechslo- vakia walked out once to enforce their demands that the POWs be made to listen, at gunpoint if necessary. Sweden and Switzer- land have just as stubbornly re- fused to appropve the use of force.
 India's Thimayya effectively has sided against the Reds, rul- ing that force cannot be used unless the commission agrees to it unanimously.

Returnee Says He Stayed Behind To Gather Evidence

TOKYO, R-A young soldier from the hills of Virginia said today he refused repatriation from Communist prison camp so he could gather evidence to prove to the people of America the Communists "are rotten to the core"
 Cpl Edward s. Dickenson, 23, remained behind with g other Americans when most Allied war captives were repatriated at the end of the Korean fighting.
 Last Wednesday he left the compound north of Panmunjom where the others are still await ing explanation about why they should come home, and told the Indian guards he had changed his mind-that he wanted to be re- patriated.
 Dickenson said he never be- lieved in Communism, though the other Americans in prison camp at Pyoktong, North Korea, con- sidered him a progressive" who cooperated with the Chinese Reds.
 He said he wanted to learn all he could about the Communists so he could ''get revenge for what they did to me and my buddies' D
 'I just thought I would play along with them and get even with them. I didn't intend to go to China" he said.
 Dickenson said the Commun- ists promised him and the other g Americans that if they stayed behind they would have plenty of women, a good home and could go to school to take up any studies"
 The Reds also promised the men they could go to China or Russia or any other country.
 In about five years, he said the Communists told them, there would be a revolution in the United States. Then, he said, the men who remained behind now were told they would return to the United States and would be the masters of our own country"
