Attorney General Brownell
declared yesterday the public
should avoid generalized state
ments about American service
men collaborating with Commu-
nists while they were being held
as prisoners of war in North
Korea.
The Attorney General said the
Justice Department does not plan
to prosecute any of the returning
POWS unless requested to do so
by the Defense Department. He
told a press conference that no
such cases are pending at the
present time.
Mr.. Brownell said it would be
unfair to the soldiers and mem
berS of their families to make
general statements about collab-
grafton. If any cases are cited by
the Defense Department, he said,
his staff would then have to
determine what laws had been
violated, if any.
The Attorney Generals latest
comment on the subject follows
discussion arising from reports
by some returning prisoners of
war that various other service
men embraced the Communist
cause while in captivity.
Mr.. Brownell devoted much of
his press conference to the prob
lem of Mexican "wetback" labor,
which he studied at first hand on
a Western trip last week.
He said an increasing number

Of aliens is entering the United
States illegally from Mexico,
posing a serious problem. in law
enforcement, particularly in
California and Texas, but also
in some large cities in other
parts of the country.
The Attorney General said
that in 1852 the immigration
Service apprehended $50, 900
persons and deported them for
illegal entry from Mexico. The
lowest estimate of the number
remaining in the United States
illegally is 100000, he said.
Mr.. Brownell said lawless ele-
ments prey on these people, sub
jecting them to various rackets,
knowing the victims cannot
complain to Government au-
thorities. because they then
would be deported.
He pointed out that some
Mexican labor enters legally
under a contract arrangement
between farmers labor-recruit-
ing organizations. The Govern
ment is trying to decide how it
can strengthen the system with
a solution acceptable to Mexican
authorities and at the Same time
protect the United States from
the aliens who enter illegally.
Attorney General Brownell
said he would make no an
nouncement on policy until a
complete recommendation is pre-
pared. This will be based in a
measure on the results of his
fact-f1nding mission to the West.

Wish for Christmas
AT Home Coming True
For Maryland POW

The wish of a Marley Park
(Md) prisoner to be home by
Christmas looks as if it is COM
ing true.
Corpl. Vernon S. Rea, "a, of
the Anne Arundel County town,
was named last night on the
latest list of freed prisoners of
war in Korea. He was with the
Service Company of the 18th
Airborne Regiment, when cap
tured by the Communists in May,
1851.
His mother, Mrs. William H.
Rea, sr., was told by The Star
over the telephone that her son
was liberated.
Its wonderful" she said be-
tween tears. 1--WE have been wait
ing to hear his name. I'm crying
and laughing"
She said she had been listen
ing for her sons name over the
radio for several days, but the
radio has not been working well.
Thankful for Others.
She also did not know that
Vernon had been made, a COR
poral. His last letter to her. re-
ceived June 18, was dated
April %. This was after the
exchange of sick and wounded
prisoners. In the letter, he
wrote:
Il only get a chance to write
three times a month. I don't
know how much longer I will
be in this place. But I am glad
to know that some one has left.
anyway. I really feel glad for
them. 1t was almost as if it was
me going. Maybe I can be with
you next Christmas, hope"
In an earlier letter Corpl. Rea
wrote his mother that the
prisoners were given wild goat
meat on a Christmas Day.
Corpl. Rea is a veteran of oc-
cupation duty in Germany after
World War II.
Born in Baltimore, he was
reared in Marley Park, and at
tended Glen Burnie (Md) High
School,.
He served 18 months in the
Army after World War II, which
included the occupation duty.
After re-enlisting he was sent
overseas again in July, 1850, the
month after the Korean war
began.
No Word for Months.
From the time of his capture
until after the Communists re-
leased the lists of their prisoners
the following December, the
family heard nothing from him.
Since March, 1852. however,
Corpl. Rea wrote when he could.
He has a brother, William H.
Rea, jr., 26, who served 18
months of occupation duty in
Japan. There also are two sis
ters, Mrs. Shirley Shat of Marley
Park and Tanya, who is only 3.
She was 6 months old when
Corpl. Rea left. He has a niece
and nephew he has never seen.

while choice live steers are SELL

To answer that $64 question,
the Food Distributors Associa-

From a live steer weighing
1000 pounds on the hoof. about
$50 pounds will eventually reach
the retail counter. At the pack

another $50 is lost at the re-
tailers in fat, bone, and trim

fore it is saleable. At current
prices the packer pays $0.2475
per pound for the live steer at
the cattle shed; the retailer buys
it for "A cents a pound. The side

the rib, which in this instance
weighed only IL pounds and 2A

Views From The Southernmost

By Charlie Coneh

The high cost of running base
ball team was pointed up Wednes-
day by Key West High School Ath-
letic Director Win Jones who re-
vealed that it required a total of
S., O70.92 to operate the Conch nine
throughout the regular season and
send them to the State tourney in
Fort Pierce.
Total revenue realized through
out the season totaled only 81, 042.3
and the difference had to be made
up out of the general athletic fund.
Those figures are the best rea-
son why the help of Key West
boosters of the club, who pitched
in and collected money to send
them to Selma, is mucho appreci-
.ated, Jones said,
Football has attracted good
crowds for the past couple of years,
but that is an expensive sport to
operate too, what with new uni-
forms and equipment always need
ed. a.
An idea of where the money
went can be had when you consid-
er that baseballs are selling for
$28 per dozen, a good catchers mitt
costs S22.s5 and bats go for 1874
each.
