Some one remarked that it

The trial was held here be-
fore a board of 10 officers,
one of whom was Douglas
Macarthur, then a major

five years without pay.

ignominy of his conviction.
Mitchell resigned from the
Army and retired to a farm
near Warrenton, Va. But he

approaching rapidly. In June
we created the single unified

the war years, we built planes
that went even faster than he
had predicted. They sank
ships just as he had proved
they could. They bombed the
enemy around the world,
patrolled our shores and pro-
tected our shipping.
When peace returned in

bombing.
In the tests, a submarine
was blown from the water
with q single blast. Then a
destroyer, a cruiser and,
finally, a battleship were
sunk. Even so, there still
were skeptics.
Gen. Mitchell, unrelenting
in his convictions, labored on.
In 1922 he set a speed record
of 221 miles an hour, but
predicted planes soon would
exceed 300 miles an hour. He
pleaded for more vigorous
aeronautical research and
development, but it fell mostly
on deaf ears.
Born in 1879, the son of
Senator John L. Mitchell of
Wisconsin, he was graduated
from George Washington Uni
versity as the war with Spain
was coming on. He enlisted
as a private, but in only six
days his rise had started. He
was promoted to second
lieutenant.
BY 1914 his interest in avia-
tion was aroused. World War
I had started, and he went to
France as a major to observe
air warfare on the Western
front. In less than a month
after we entered the war in
April, 1917, he was the first
American officer to fly over
the German lines. Shortly
before the war ended, he was
elevated to brigadier general.
Six governments. including
our own, pinned medals on
his chest.
He came back as assistant
chief of the air service, but
as military aviation Jagged,

reduced to his permanent

Asked if he would resign even
without being asked if he
reached the conclusion that he
was a political liability to the

The reorganization plan abol-
lshes the Sprawling Production

and the Bureau of Agricultural
Economics. Their functions are
re-distributed among other Ag-
riculture Department agencies.
Most of the departments ac-
ton agencies are re-arranged in
four major groups, each under
an Assistant Secretary of Agri-
culture.
Secretary Benson said, how
ever, that since the detailed le-
organization plan was announced,
he had decided to leave the Com
modify Credit Corporation as a
separate agency and had made
some minor changes in otner
parts of the program.
Secretary Benson said the

unusually wide approval"

OF the National Association of

"The organized campaign of
this small group has served to
confuse the issues and to obscure
our real intentions.
He said that some of his Con-
gressional critics had acted on
the basis Of statements from
this group. Some of these critics,
he believed, would not object to
the plan after getting "the

Secretary Benson denied the
change would cut back Soil Con-

done in the past by regional Of
fees would be transferred 70

would be more efficient than the

Coincident with the change,
Secretary Benson announced
that DR.. Robert M. Salter was

present job as chief of the Soil
Conservation Service for reasons
of health. DR.. Salter will be-

by his own choice. Three South
Koreans also have returned.
The % other Americans are
awaiting interviews by the United
Nations command on the posi-
bility of their return. The UNC
has not announced when it will
begin.
The informant said:
Letters from relatives and
friends probably would do more
than anything else to convince
the fearful 19 that they can be
free Americans again.
They are terrified that they
would be killed by Communists
II they ask repatriation and they
have been told by the Reds they
would be pumped dry and
bumped off" if they return to
America.
HomesicknesS, Illustration,
fear, ignorance and muddled
emotions are gnawing at all but
the converted three leaders.
Most of the 19 are afraid be-
cause of articles they have writ
ten or broadcast favoring the
Reds.
All live together closely.
Leaders Jockey for Rule.
!. Here, in detail, is the inform
ants picture of the men and
their camp life:
The American group is led by
seven leaders selected by the
Communists, three of them be-
lieved to be dedicated Reds.
4 Among these seven, there is
fighting and jockeying for lead
erShip. Z
Since at least three of the
men show every sign of being
genuine Communists it is doubt
full that they could be persuaded
to return by any means.
But the rest are believed to be
more trapped by perhaps human
weakness and circumstance and
would quickly return if they
knew they were safe and were
told the truth about their po-
sition and the laws.
The hard core leaders are
masterminded by a former Chi
nese professor known as Col.
Chong, who has probed so deeply
into the mems lives that he is
loaded with confession story
material he threatens to make
public if any of the men ask
repatriation.
Although the men are under
only Indian guard in the neu-
tral zone. they are still in con-
tact with the Communists
through a 1t. Ho, apparently
stationed at prison camp hos
pital.
Ho has been seen to turn over
as much as eight pages of
printed instructions to sick
American POWs getting medi-
cal treatment.
These OF other instructions
have told the men what to do
If and when they are brought
before explanation teams, as the
armiStice provides. Some of
these are:
l Hit American officers-they
can do nothing to you.
2. Give silly answers to the
explainerS.
3 Read your political books
while they are talking.
4 Do everything possible to
make American officers lose face.
One prisoner was said to be
saving Glove of garlic to chew
Just before entering an explana-
tion tent to blow it in the
American officers face"
The informant says the Reds
tell the men they will be kept in
China up to five years and then
quietly slipped back into the
United States as revolution
aries.
When the revolution comes"
the source said. they are to be
generals-or at least leaders"
The Reds have also promised
the men they can see plenty of
women" in China-and have
promised them wives from
China or Africa if they desire"
They have been told they can

work at any job they want in
China, can also work and attend
school, or can travel or go to the
Soviet Union. The men seemed
convinced the Reds would keep
their promises.
The source said health condi-
tiopS in the Indian north camp
are poor" but better than they
were under the Communist Chi
nese.
The water for the lamp is
drawn from we'll in a rice
paddy. He said one man has
swelling in his arms and legs
while another has persistent
coughing.
Asylum Offered to Relatives.
One other promise the Reds
have made he said. is that if the
mems families come to Panmun-
JON to help persuade them to re-
turn, the Communists viii offer
the relatives political asylum in
Kaesong if they desire it."
The source said the prisoners
are nervous at the prospect of
their families visiting-probably
for a number OF different rea-
sons. either fears for their
safety or personal reluctance to
meet their kin face-to-face.
The source said that when the
men arrived in trucks for turn
over to the Indians they had in
Structions from a 1t. Yung to
"Sing and raise hell" They did
Nevertheless some of the men
were homesick when they
reached the neutral zone and
saw American newsmen and
Army officers looking on.
The Communists have also
told the men that 80 progress
sives" were held mysteriously in
Japan after the rest of the re-
turned Big Switch prisoners were
sent home and that the rest of
the "progressives" were beaten
up"
Warned Against FBI.
"ProgressiveS" was the name
given men in the POW camps
who fell in line with Commu-
niSm.
They have also been told "the
FBI will take care Of" any who
seek repatriation.
The source said the prisoners,
when they were first brought in
to North Camp, were offered a
radio and American newspapers
and cigarettes-but that the
hard-core leaders would not al
low the men to accept them in
spite of their wish to do so. In
stead, they have been allowed by
their leaders to receive Czech
and Chinese Communist picture
magazines.
The information from this
source matches closely with what
Corpl. Dickinson said in his
news interviews after returning
and in letter he wrote to sew
eral of his closest friends still
in the camp, urging them to
return.
Corpl. Dickinson stressed that
he was received honorably as an
American soldier, got ahis full
back pay that piled up while he
was a prisoner and that he was
returning to the United States to
see his family.
He told the men he left behind
there was only a "Wark picture"
ahead of them if they went to
China.
