Russia Pushes
Forum Action
On Aggression

UNITED NATIONS, NY. H-
Russia framed a double-barreled
demanded today for U.N. action
on her charges Of American ag-
gression against Communist China.
But the United States stood firm
against any move to include Red
China in such debate.
The Soviet Union goes before the
U.N.'s 15-nation Steering Commit
tee to seek an airing Of two com.
plants:
1. Russia's charges that Nation
alist China-with us. connivance
- has made piratical attacks on
shipping bound for the Communist
Chinese mainland.
2. Russian claims that the United
States is guilty of aggression in the
vicinity of Formosa and the China
mainland.
The Steering Committee voted
two weeks ago to defer action on
the piracy charge pending the out
come Of French attempts to solve
the problem in talks between Ma
tionalist China and Russia. But dip
lomatic sources said the Soviets
decided the time had come for ac-
ton.
Russia's Andrei Vishinsky
brought the second, more direct
accusation against the United
States last Friday, barely "a hours
after the U.N. Secretariat had cir
culated a similar charge by Red
China's Premier Chou En-lai.
The Russian charge drew a
prompt retort from Chief us.
Delegate Henry Cabot Lodge Jr.,
who branded it a "plain lie."
The U.N. Security Council con-
sidered similar charges by Red
China in 1850 but threw out a Pei
ping request that it condemn the
United States.
US. sources said Lodge would
fight any attempt to invite Red
Chinese delegation here, but there
was considerable speculation as
to how much support the United
States could muster.
One delegate said many coun-
tries which oppose seating Red
China in the U.N. would hesitate
to stop her from having q say in
charges which affect her own soil.
Actually the question Of inviting
Red China would not arise in the
Steering Committee but would rest
with the body delegated to handle
the issue if it gets on the agenda-
presumably the assembly's 60-na-
ton main Political Committee.

Alsing Asks For
Two Assistants

A request from city plumbing
inspector Harry Alsing that two
assistants be employed to aid him
in supervising more than three
thousand connections to the Key
West sewer system, was referred
to the city manager last night for
study.
Alsing, in a letter to the city
commission, said that he needs a
clerk and an assistant inspector to
aid him in his work.
He pointed out that sewer con-
nections are averaging more than
10 per day with the sewer project
only partially completed.
City Manager Victor Lang was
also instructed to see if the as
sistant inspectors could be paid for
out of the sewer construction funds.

sees a difficult public relations pro-
blem here, particularly with those
living along the unpaved portion.
He pointed out that in some cases.
this will mean postponement of per-
manent repairs until the cigarette
tax fund is again available.
8. To prepare the streets for a
hot mix asphalt program will re-
quire that the city forces concen-
trate on the streets which will be
repaved to the detriment of the
streets not included in the new
program.
4. The sewer funds will include
only the sewer ditch. The city
must pay to pave the balance. To
stretch the city's funds, the paving
has been held to minimum width.
Except in high traffic areas, it is
proposed to pave with hot mix
asphalt two 10-foot traffic lanes
where necessary. Parking lanes
can be paved with the city ma
chine.
5. Extensive changes will be re.
quired in the present plans and
specifications.
Z. Agreements must be reached
between the three contractors in
volved, the federal government,
and the city to determine the ex--
act methods of participation .and
extent of participation. Further
more, the job must be contracted
for in accordance with federal wage
standards.
Hot Asphalt Streets
Lang concluded with a statement
that repairs to present hot asphalt
streets will be divided into two ca
tegories.
Those streets damaged In the
traffic lanes will be patched by a
thin layer of specially designed,
machine laid, hot asphalt mix 10
feet In width. Hot asphalt streets
damaged along the edge or in park
ing lanes will be patched by hot
asphalt, hand raked and machine
rolled.
Lang added that II other streets
included in the paving program
Will be similar to the city's 194S
paving program project. Lang was
the engineer for that program.
The city's street building ma
chine would be used to provide a
satisfactory base for the paving, he
added.

Mobile And Battle-Ready Army
Can Win Next War, Orth Says 4
MIAMI w-Franklin L. orth,

MIAMI N-Franklin l.. Ortn, .
member of the U. S. Army Secre
tariat. said today the next wai
could be won within few months
by a thoroughly mobile and battle
ready army.
orth, deputy assistant secretary
of the Army, held out such a pos
sibility if the ground forces are
given enough air support to enable
them to fly to any place on earth
He said in a speech prepared tor
the National Guard Assn. confer
ence: -
"By early invasion of the enc.
my's strategic centers we may,
with success, follow up the massive
blows of retaliation administered
by our superb Air Force. Such q
strategically mobile combat-ready
army could win the war within q
few months time"
Orth said the conditions OF war
fare in the atomic age would NOT
permit the United States the luxury
Of a slow buildup after the first
blow was struci. He said he fore
sees the day when the major civil.
ian components such as the Ma
tional Guard will be designated as
"promptly-ready units" which can
take the offensive Immediately.
The Army must be in a position
to administer the ''final and de-
cisive action" after an initial phase
of paralyzing destruction by op-
posing air forces, Orth said. After
that phase, he added, it will be
the Army's problem to close with
the enemy on the ground and to
destroy enemy ground forces that
might be untouched by massive
atomic aerial assaults.
Orth criticized current efforts to
amalgamate the Military Reserve
plans of all of the armed services.
He said attempts to draft a single
was like trying to teach
mammals to fly, the birds to swim
and the fish to walk"
He said the Defense Department,
the National Security Council, and
ultimately Congress should come
up with a workable reserve pro-
gram that takes into account the
specific differences in the reserve
requirements of each Of the armed
forces.
Mai. Gen. E. A. Walsh, associa-
ton president, told 1,5O0 delegates
yesterday that the group believes
the federal government intends tc
swallow" the National Guard into
its reserve program.
1--WE serve notice that we are In
the national defense system to stay
and have no intention of being dis.
possessed" he said.
Co. H. Spencer Struble of New
York said an excess Of bureau
cracy is hamstringing the program
of armory construction which has
used only about Is per cent of the
money needed for the full program
in the first three years Of its five
year life.

Sheppard's Counsel
Is Rebuffed In
Common Pleas Court

CLEVELAND, R-The defense
today renewed its request that the
first degree murder trial of DR..
Samuel H. Sheppard be moved to
another city, but was rebuffed
again.
william J. Corrigan, chief de-
tense counsel, at the start of to-
days session renewed his motion
for a change of venue on grounds
that public sentiment in Cleveland
and surrounding Cuyahoga County
was unfavorable to his client.
But, Judge Edward Blythin of
Common Pleas Court, clinging to
an opinion originally handed down
in the first day of the hearing
Yesterday, still held in abeyance
final decision on whether the trial
would be moved.
Newspaper Files Shown
Corrigan introduced as evidence
two files Of newspapers containing
stories about the case.
He also cited a debate between
two Cleveland newspapermen on
the handling of the Sheppard story
that was broadcast over Cleveland
Radio Station WIKI last night.
The debate was between James
W. Collins, city editor of the Cleve-
land Plain Dealer, and Forrest
Allen of the Cleveland Press.
Collins and Allen first debated
at a meeting of Sigma Delta Chi,
journalistic fraternity, yesterday.
The debate was put on tape and
reproduced on the radio station
last night.
The court then proceeded with
the selection of jurors.
Only one juror had been selected
on the first day of the trial of
the 3O-year-old osteopath accused
IN the bludgeoning last July 4 of
his pregnant wife Marilyn, 81. At
torneys estimated it would require
a week or 10 days to seat a Jury.

Western Union Telegraph Com
pany that their personal property
assessment be dropped from $685.
600 to about $4,000.
But the commission refused to
act on petitions from the Kotton
King, Duval st. clothing Store and
the Fuller Brush Co., Truman Ave.
Reason For Change
City Tax Assessor Robert Pol
lock explained that Western Union
should get q reduction since their
assessment, under state law, is
made by the Railroad and Public
Utlities Commission in Tallahas-
see, and that it was late in ar
irving here from the state comp
troller's office.
For that reason, Pollock said, the
tax assessor used last years valua-
ton, which was incorrect. He add
ed that the county has already re.
duced their assessment.
The commission then voted to
grant the reduction.
othsr Requests
But when the other two cases
came up, they brought an angry
blast from Commissioner Louis
Carboneu.
"Why didn't these people apply
to the equalization board = our
budget is set up according to our
expected revenue" said Carbonel,
"You are going to create a pre-
cedent that will become a mons
ter - wen have people down here
every week wanting a reduction
in their assessment"
Carbonell said that he was OF
the opinion that the city should
wait until next year before max
ing the change.
City Tax Assessor Pollock told
the commission, in recommending
the changes, that the two cases IN
question were the only ones OF
more than rs complaints that he
held valid.
Only 5 Complaints
After it had been brought out
that there were only five COM
plants on assessments before the
equalization board, Mayor c. B.
Harvey commented that the situa-
ton sis the result of the evils OF
the system ITSELF"
'The burden is on the taxpay-
err, the first notice he gets of any
change in his assessment is when
he gets his tax BILL" said the May
or, II see nothing wrong with
correcting an obvious error"
The mayor added that a pro-
posal to publish the tax rolls
"Vkeld 40 a lot of good"
tho commission voted short
lyNAV table the resolution granting
the tax relief.
