By the Associoted Prsss

LONDON, April 25.-Moscow

American press has spread tales
of Communist atrocities in Korea
either to complicate the present

Soviet news agency Tass. the
radio said the first stories about
released prisoners testified to
the good treatment they received
from the Chinese"
Later. it said, "atrocity tales
suddenly began to arrive from
Panmunjom, allegedly on the
basis of interviews with the sec
ond group of prisoners released.
"The American correspondents
started a frenzied drive to build
up sensations, either in an at
tempt to protect United States
military authorities from evil
dence on the other side concern
ing massacres on Koje, Cheju or
other camps, or in an attempt to
complicate the exchange of war
prisoners which had begun sue

NEW YORK. April 25.-A
timid young elephant who wants
to be alone is upsetting the warm
weather routine at the Bronx
Zoo.
Candy. a Siamese elephant,
doesn't want to stay in her out
door pen. Yesterday she re-

A zoo official said the 18-

play in the proper elephantine
spirit. He added:
For a while we laid chunks
of bread down the ramp just to
get her outside, but when the
bread was gone. she'd turn and
hang around the door. She
passed the fall and winter in

By the Associated Press


WESTHAMPTON, N. Y, April
25.AA secret experimental flight
by B-29 Superfort and an F-84
Thunderjet ended in flaming
disaster yesterday, with the two
carrying all their six crewmen
to death.
The planes, flying together

takeoff.
Witnesses said there was a rip
ping sound, a burst of flames
and then the earthward plunges
by the two planes, trailing smoke
and flame. aa
Only Oil Slick Left.
The B-29 hit the bay near the
southern shore and sank, leaving
only an oil slick. The jet fell
into woods on the south shore
a short distance inland and
burned.
None of the bodies of the
bomber crew has been recovered
The jet pilot was thrown clear.
A Coast Guard patrol boat
boat located the bomber wreck
age today and posted a buoy at
the site, pending arrival of a
Naval salvage vessel from Bay
onne, N. j. A search for bodies
continued.
A Coast Guard boat patrolled
the bay through the night and
planes were scheduled to join it
in a search today for the bomber.
The Air Force identified the
jet pilot as Maj. John Davis,
81. OF Dayton. a Wright Center
test pilot. He was on temporary
assignment with the Republic
Aircraft Corp. at Farmingdale,
which owned the jet.
Crewmen on the bomber. on
detached service from Wright,

81 tobacco Supports
|nMarY|and Rejected
In House, 212-11O
BY the Associoted Press

Maryland tobacco growers
must wait until next year to re-
ceive price support for their to-
bacco.
Federal aid for the 1852 crop
was rejected by the House yes
terday.
A House bill, which would
have given price support despite
the farmers themselves voting
against marketing quotas, was
voted down 212 to 10.
Representative Small, Repub-
lican, of Maryland, who offered
the bill, told reporter today
he is "afraid this will cost the
growers of Southern Maryland
S. million.
This is a tough blow, but it
was an uphill fight from the very
beginning" he said. TT means,
of course there will be no price
support for Maryland growers
until next year."
Voted for 1853 Controls.
The growers have voted for
the control program for the 1868
crop.
The House defeated the bill
after four hours of the liveliest
debate this year. The debate
included insinuations that the
purpose of the bill was to insure
the reelection of Representative
Small.
Democrats led the fight
against the bill.
Representative Poage, Demo-
crat, Of Texas, said he had heard
there were political implica-
tions" in the measure.
Representative Whitten, Dem
ocrSt, Of Mississippi. said the bill
would put SIS million into South
ern Maryland to assure the re-
election of Mr.. Small. For that
amount. he added. he could elect
a Republican in his own rock
ribbed Democratic district.
Another of the bills oppo-
nents. Representative Aber-
nathy, Democrat, of Mississippi,
said many of the beneficiaries
would be Government Office
holders.
"City Farmers" Criticized.
i, These are "city farmers" he
said, who own farms in Mary
land and who helped to defeat
the 1852 quotas. These farmers,
he added, farm ION the side so
they can charge it off their in
come taxes"
Among those supporting the
bill was Chairman Hope of the
Agriculture Committee. He said
it was not a case of expanded
acreage because the Maryland
growers actually held down their
1852 crop below allotments they
approved for the following year.
House Majority Leader Halleck
supported the measure. There
was substantial compliance" by
the farmers with the quota pro-
gram. he said. He assured the
House the bill would not be con-
Sidered as a precedent.

Taft Says He Counts
On Democratic Help
If Tax Cut Is Held Up
Dy the Assoeiaisd Press

Senate Republican Leader Taft
said today he expects Democratic
support If the Eisenhower ad-
ministration seeks to continue
present high taxes temporarily
in its efforts to balance the
budget.
Senator Russell of Georgia, in
f1uential Democratic Senator.
said in an interview:
IF the President takes the
lead in the matter. it is my judg-
ment that a majority Of the
Democratic Senators will give
the administration the tax meas
ures necessary to maintain the
revenue yield where it is"
Supported by Johnson.
Senate Democratic Leader
Lyndon Johnson of Texas last
Sunday endorsed as "just COM
mon sense" President Eisen-
hower's plan to bring a balanced
budget in view before cutting
taxes.
The Treasury reported yester-
day it's tax receipts for the cal
endar year ending December 81,
1852, totaled $685. billion.
Calling this encouraging. Sen
ator Taft said continued receipts
at this rate would make it
easier for the Republicans to
balance the budget for the fiscal
year beginning July !.
Former President Truman
estimated income for that fiscal
year at 500. 8.665 100000, taking
into account provisions of law
by which the excess profits tax
would end July l and individual
income taxes would go down 10
per cent on January !.
Senator Taft said the new ad-
ministration soon will know
whether those or similar taxes
would be needed to balance
spending.
Military Items Count.
"It will depend largely on the
military budget requests made
by the President" the Ohioan
said. when those are in, we
can figure how mucn revenue
will be needed to avoid a deficit" "
Mr.. Truman estimated defense
spending for the year at $46,-
296, 100000, but Pentagon off,
cials have said it may go higher.
Reminded that House members
have shown little disposition to
continue present high taxes
and in fact are talking about
hurrying up the individual in
come levy cut by six months
Senator Taft said he thinks there
may be a change in attitude
if it develops that the budget
can't be balanced without more
revenue.
Il think a great many Demo-
Gratis will help us get the taxes
if they are needed" the Ohio
Senator observed. I'VE certainly
don't want to delay tax cuts
unless we have to, but we may
have to-"
Senator Russell said he thinks
Democrats in the Senate gen.
orally are interested in getting
balanced budget without too
deep cuts into the military pro-
gram. ~ t:' g@# .tt er.
