Dodd Assai|s
Antarctic Pact
BY the Associated Press

Senator Dodd, Democrat of
Connecticut, has asked the Sen
ate to reject the 12-nation
Antarctic treaty. which he de-
scribed as IAN act Of appease-
ment" endangering national
security.
He said it is the Senate's
duty Ito save the State De-
partment from the conse-
quences of it's own folly" by
refusing to ratify it.
1T is a sorry example of
spinelessness and pathological
SoftheadednesS that has affect
ed our foreign policy over the
past two years." he said in a
speech yesterday.
Senator Dodd called the
treaty, initiated by the United
States. "the spawn of the ILL
ness of coexistence euophoria
from which we suffered until
the U-2 incident and the Paris
summit jolted us awake"
The treaty, with Soviet Rus
sia and 10 other nations, has
been approved by the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee
1t is pending on the Senate
calendar awaiting a vote on
its ratification as requested by
President Eisenhower.
1t provides that the Antarc-
tic shall be used for peaceful
purposes only. calls for free
dom of scientific Investigation
and International cooperation
in science, and bans military
bases and nuclear tests in the
area.

by the House Armed Services
Subcommittee.
Army officials, from Secretary
Brucker on down, called the
GAO report unfair and MIS-
leading. Mr.. Brucker said GAO
accountants Jumped together
every kind of vehicle failure,
from a missing washer to a re-
placed engine, and drew un-
warranted conclusions from the
resulting mass of statistics.
The GAO said the Army
bought nearly 10000 vehicles
that have faults which seri-
ously impair their operation
and maintenance"
Tanks Singled Out
At three Army installations,
the report said. investigators
found the military vehicles
conked out on the average of
once for every 81 miles Of op-
Grafton.
The main criticism was aimed

at the N-48 and M-48Al me-
dium tanks, the backbone of
the Army's armored forces.
1t said the engines, trans
missions and track suspension
systems broke down frequently
and put the tanks out of op-
Grafton even after limited use.
The GAO said the Army
rushed these tanks into mass
production during the Korean
War, aware that they had
serious bugs and deficiencies,
but counting on correcting
them later.
Initial production vehicles
were defective to such an. ex-
tent that they were not accept
able even for training purpos-
es," the report said.
Report Delayed for Weeks
The subcommittee held up
the report for weeks, in order
to give the Army a chance to
give its side. Army officials
made almost point-by-point
denials of the waste charges.
mo matter how sincere they
maye have intended to be-"
said Mr.. Brucker, st submit
that the efforts of the GAO
auditors were misguided in at
tempting to appraiSe qualities
of Army vehicles >"
The auditors, evidently
unable to distinguish between
minor and major types of de-
ficiencies, simply totaled the
entirety of these entries which
they have found in Army rec
ords and INDUCED in the un-
supportable assumption that
each item represents a sub
stantial failure in a vehicle"
Mr.. Brucker said the charge
that vehicles broke down every
81 miles at three Army bases
lis completely misleading"
Army Figures Offered
Only 9 per cent of the fail
ureS were of the disabling type
at one of the camps, he said.
The other 81 per cent CON
sisted of missing washers,
worn shock absorbers, loose
bolts, low oil pressure and sim
liar routine maintenance which
are the responsibility of the
tank crew."
Actually, Mr.. Brucker testi-
fed, at Camp Irwin, Calf. one
of the bases listed by the GAO,
the tanks at this tough train
ing installation operated with
out immobilizing failure for an
average of over 1850 miles per
tank"
Mr.. Brucker also contended
that the Korean emergency
justified a Speeded-up produc-
tion program even though he
conceded the tanks had faults.
The Army needed tanks
badly then. he said, and where
faults were discovered, modi-
flcations made the vehicles
usable.

LATE REPORT ON THE
OREGON INLET PROJECT

WILMINGTON. Jan. 20-Invi-
tations for bids have been issued
for the dredging of new inside APP
proach channel at Oregon Inlet,
and are scheduled to be opened
here February 16. Allowing the
successful bidder the usual 80
days to get in position, this means
that the dredging will get start
ed about the middle of March.
Gross yardage is estimated at
662, 900 Gu. yds. and, weather con-
ditions being normal, the job will
take from two to three months to
finish.
Meanwhile, Col. R. P. Davidson.
District Engineer, says he is glad
to report that the maintenance
dredging at Far Creek at Engel-
hard has been completed and the
dredge has moved to Hatteras for

MANY NETS. HAVE
BEEN SNAGGED ON
WRECKED AIRPLANE
Several Fishermen Have Raised
Parts of Inflated Graft in
Croafan Sound

The big propeller recovered
recently from wrecked airplane
one mile southeast of Roanoke
Marshes light station in Croatan
Sound by William Tillett of Man
teo is not the only part Of this
Inflated ship to have been found
by fishermen.
Publicity concering the craft has
brought information that many
other fishermen have lost nets
which have become entangled in
the wreckage, which is in some
IL feet of water at an important
fishing stations.
James Earl Cox of Engelhard in
the "Clark Brothers." out Of
Stumpy Point before Christmas
brought ashore one of the motors
and turned it over to the Navy
station nearby. Having hosting
gear on his vessel it was not diff
ficult to raise.
Another wrecked plane is said
to be seven miles off Engelhard
near Pingleton Shoal beacon.
Another near Gibby Shoal beacon
near Gulrock, also in Hyde County
waters.
Other wreckage, yet undeter-
mined has snagged nets north Of
the Roanoke Marshes lighthouse.
During World War II there was
much practice flying on our coast
and while the Manteo airport was
a training station. When planes
We're lost, no announcement was
given the public. Occasionally local
people learned of daytime crashes,
as for instance when one fell in
the woods near Manteo and burned
some persons to death. Such hap
penings at night far off on the
water We're unknown to civilians.
1t was only known at their COM
mand when they failed to return,
that they Civilian filters were lost
in the ocean when small planes
of the Civil air patrol went down
near Hatteras. These We're based
on Roanoke Island.
Publicity concerning the wrecked
plane subject. of this article has
brought forth considerable discus
sion abuot whose responsibility it
is to remove it from the fishing
grounds where it has been costly
to fishermen.
1t has been reported to the
Coast Guard, and opinion is ex-
pressed that one of the buoy tend
ers should take it from the water.
