Air Force Tigghtens Safety Measures
 In NV. and Alaska

WASHINGTON, R - Repre- sentative Short R-Mo) said today a House probe into recent military air wrecks had prompted the Air Force to tighten safety measures in northwestern United States and Alaska.
 Short is to be chairman of the House Armed Forces Committee which yesterday wound up a two day inquiry. into the deaths of 234 persons in military disasters dur ing November and December.
 Maj. Gen. Roger Ramey, dir ector of operations, testified that the Air Force has proposed send ing more men and equipment to Alaska to help out troubled planes over mountainous terrain.
 Thirty-nine persons were killed in Alaska during November, he said, when two C-119 Flying Boxcars" were diverted from reg ular flight channels by naviga- tional mistakes and poor weather.
 A Surveillance team" of air defense radar watchers spotted one of these off course but was unable to warn the pilot, Ramey said. As a result the teams will be increased and supplied with more modern equipment to guide pilots, he said.
 Short told a reporter the com mittee probe prompted this meas ure in Alaska and efforts to get more directional equipment in northwestern United States.
 Gen. Hoyt s. Vandenberg, Air Force chief of staff, told the com mittee servicemen were not dis couraged from hitching rides on military transports because, he said, 'hitchhiking in automobiles is more dangerous than in the air"

Superforts and Fighter Bombers Continue Air Blows On Red Targets

SEOUL, R - The US. Fifth Air Force said US. Sabre jets destroyed at least eight Commit mist Mig-15 fighters today in a series of savage air battles over North Korea.
 Night flying Superforts plas- tered the Sinanju area with no tons of bombs early this morning. Almost before the smoke and de bris settled, 150 Air Force and Marine fighter-bombers made an other pulverizing attack.
 The fighter -bombers sWooped in at low level and virtually laid their bombs on railroad bridges across the Chohon and Taeryong Rivers Pilots reported gaping holes were blasted in the bridges and twisted spans dropped into the waters below.
 On the ground, patrol actions flared all across the ar-torn>pen- insula. No major engagements were reported.

SOyiets Accuse
 Jewish Doctors Killing Leaders

MOSCOW, R - The Soviet Union Tuesday accused nine doc tors, most of them Jews, of killing two top Russian leaders and plot ting the deaths of others through faulty, treatments.
 An announcement said the doc tors, now under arrest, incorrect ly diagnosed" the fatal illness of Andrei A. Zhdanov, a leading Politburo member, and reduced the life" of Alexander s. Scher- bakov, head of the chief political administration of the Soviet army.
 Zhdanov died in 1949 and Scherbakov in 1945.
 The story was being discussed everywhere, and seems destined to cause new and stronger feel ings against the groups the Soviet press calls Anglo-American war mongers, and against Zionist or ganizations.
 The announcement said the as- serted plot was carried out on in- structions of British and Ameri- can intelligence services and Zionist organizations.
 It said an investigation will be completed in the near future, but meantime it had been establish ed that all the arrested doctors were paid agents of foreign intel Ggence." It declared "the major ity of the terrorist group were connected with the international Jewish bourgeois nationalist or ganization Joint"
 CThis evidently referred to the Joint Distribution Committee, Jewish organization which has sent millions of dollars to aid European Jews. New York spokes- men said the charges, if intended for their organization, were too ridiculous to merit comment.

Japan Warns Reds Of Violations Of
 Japanese Border

TOKYO, tR - Japan, irritated by lat least 20 or 30" violations of it's borders, Tuesday warned Russia against sending warplanes over Japanese territory.
 A foreign office spokesman said US. defense planes would shoot down intruders if necessary.
 The US. had approved Japan's ultimatum in advance.
 Japan thus in effect rattled a US. saber against it's old enemy to the north. It did not name Russia but left no doubt that's the country it meant.
 Shortly after the blunt warning, Gen. Mark Clark's headquarters announced the Far East com mander had ordered his defense chiefs in Japan to take "all mea- sures necessary to prevent fur ther violations of Japan's security or acts which endanger U. s. forces"
 A Japanese government spokes- man said planes flying without permission over Japan would be ordered to land.
 "When they don't follow our orders" Mitsuo Tanaka of the foreign office told a news con- ference, If necessary (we wilD shoot them down.

Weather Bad and Whales Un-coOperative So Heart Specialists Return Home

: LA JOLLA, Calif., R - The weather and the great gray whales, that range up to 40 tons and 50 feet in length, failed to cooperate Tuesday with leading heart specialist and scientists in their attempt to record the heart beats of the mammals.
 pr. Paul D. White, director of the University of Oceanography here tried for the last two days to harpoon one of the whales off shore, but visibility was so poor that very few of the mammals were sighted. Those that were seemed more concerned with reaching their mating grounds in southern waters than aiding the advancement of science.
 A study of the heart beat of whales is expected to be of value in studying the human heart, Dr. White says. He has already coun7 ted the heart beats of smaller whales in Alaska waters last sum- mer. They beat about Is min ute.
 Dr. White hopes to try to record the heart beats of the gray whales again next year. He left yester- day night for Boston.

By Sterling F. Green

WASHINGTON, LR President Truman told the country today it can achieve production of half a trillion dollars annually within a decade - if it beats a poten- tially serious threat of depression after this year.
 In his last major message to Congress, the annual economic re- port, Truman pictured today's Unparalleled prosperity" high employment, and stable prices as being good throughout 1853. But he said that thereafter:
 f'We may face in the future, particularly when defense spend ing can safely be reduced, more serious tests of our ability to avoid depression than those which have occurred since World War IT."
 With timely and intelligent" action, he said, the difficulties can be met and 10 years from now America can be producing goods and services at the rate of 475 to 500 billion dollars a year, 40 per cent above the present level of $345 billion.
 The President ignored a 2 to 1 split within his council of econom- ic advisers which, it developed, has disagreed on the outlook for deflation in the next three years when defense spending is due to slack off.
 The clash was disclosed in the councils economic review, sent to Congress along with the White House message. Chairman Leon Keyserling and the newest mem Der, Robert C. Turner, called for start on private and government measures to prevent possible post defense unemployment and slack markets from spinning into "a more serious deflationary spiral"
 Vice Chairman John D. Clark dissented tartly and. tersely.. He foresees no business condition changes, he said in a footnote, which are threatening enough to require new counter deflationary action by the government -"sg

 Truman stuck to his policy. of making no specific recommends tions to the new Congress. In tone, however, his message followed that of Keyserling and Turner
