April Cutoff
Date Is Set
By State Law

Montgomery cattle owners now
!. under the "Plan B" of brucellosis
control, will have to act fast if
they are to receive Federal in
demnity for infected animals now
in their herds, DR.. Arthur l..
Brueckener, director of the State
Livestock Sanitary Service, re-
ported to Delbert Foster, agricul-
tural agent.
To receive the federal indem-
nifty of SIS for grade animals or
$50 for purebred animals, Plan B
owners must sign up for Plan A
and have a test made of all ami
mails in their herd before April l.
State law requires that all cat
tie must be placed under Plan A
and have at least one test COM
pleted by November /, 1855, and
all reactors (infected animals)
must be removed for slaughter
by December 81, 1855.
There will be no indemnity
paid for retained reactors after
April 1" DR.. Brueckener said. He
urged cattle owners now under
Plan B to contact local represen-
tatives, or veterinarians who have
made their tests, Immediately if
they wish to receive the indem-
nifty.
Under Plan B, cattle owners
a were permitted to test for brucel-
loSiS and to retain animals react
ing to the test. However, they
were required to vaccinate all
calves. The object of Plan B was
to allow an owner to gradually
eliminate brucellosis from his
herd without serious financial
loss all at one time, DR.. Brueck-
ener explained.
Under Plan A all cattle must be
tested and reactors slaughtered
but calves are not required to be
vaccinated. Under Plan A calf
vaccination is voluntary but is de-
sirable as more complete insur-
ance.

On Tie-In Insurance Sales
sy ihs Assoeiased Press

A continuing and expanded
investigation of the tie-in sale of
insurance in connection with
small loans made by ''unethical
lenders" is urged in a report of
a Senate subcommittee.
The subcommittee said 1t had
found widespread instances of
lenders circumventing legal in
terest rates on small loans by
forcing borrowers to take credit
insurance. This insurance is
designed to pay up the loan
in case of death, illness or ac-
cident.
The report was submitted by
Senator LANCER. Republican, Of
North Dakota, as chairman of
the Anti Monopoly subcommit-
tee in the last Congress. Joining
him in 1t were Senator Kilgore
of West Virginia, the present
chairman. and Senators Dirksen,
Republican, of Illinois and
Kefauver, Democrat, of Tennes-
see.
The subcommittee said that,
for the present, it was not recon-
mending any Federal legislation,
but 1t called on States lacking
adequate laws to take steps to
eliminate alleged abuses.

Reds Pour Troops
Onto Tachens, Assail
U. 5. Torch Tactics
BY the As.eeiessd Pres,

TOKYO. Feb. l6.-Peiping
Radio said today more Chinese
Communist troops were pouring
Into the Tachens. abandoned by
the Nationalists last week.
A broadcast heard here indi-
Gated the Communists had trou-
Bile getting ashore on the islands
200 miles north Of Formosa, even
though the defenders were gone
when the first Reds arrived
Sunday.
"The sappers Of the Chinese
Peoples Liberation Army (PLA)
had to. remove large quantities
OF barbed wire and mines before
the combat units landed on the
Tachen Islands on February 49,"
said o dispatch from the Che
kiang (Province) front.
The retreating Chang. Kali
shek forces mined almost every
rock on the cliffs of the islands
that could provide hand or a
foothold in climbing.
BY yesterday (Monday)
morning !. !. black smoke and
flames were still belching from
large heaps of burned war ma
terlals which the .retreating
bandits had deliberately set on
fire.
''The highway on the island
tprobably North Tachen) was
Uttered with empty American oil
drums. Their content had been
poured on civilian houses. bar
racks, ammunition dumps, food
stores. lorries and jeeps to set
them on fire."
The broadcast repeated pre-
vious Communist assertions that
"all inhabitants on the island
were forcibly carried away" Ci-
villains told correspondents on
arriving on Formosa they fled to
avoid Red rule.
The Red TRADE declared:
Fully armed United States Ma
rines landed on Tachen and car
ried out burning, killing and de-
struction. This -. is most
glaring act of aggression.
Says Force Was Used.
United States Marines, while
helping the Chang Kai-shek
troops to flee from the Tachen
Islands, deliberately abducted
over $4,000 Chinese inhabitants
from these islands. They pulled
down and burned houses, leaving
the local inhabitants homeless.
Then United States Marines. at
the point of machineguns, forced
Inhabitants who were reluctant
to leave their homes to board
United States transports and
carried them away to Taiwan
F'ormoSa). Many inhabitants
who refused to leave were killed
by the Chang Kai-shek troops.
These are crimes against |
humanity.
The United States assigned |
Marine and Army experts from !
Japan to carry out 'scorch earth |
(sic ! destruction on the Tachen
Isla1lds. AS q result the
Tachens Islands have been re-
duced to ruins"
Peiping repeated its oft-yoiced
vow that the Communists would
redonble their efforts and estrive
resolutely for the liberation Of
Taiwan."
