Find Man Brutally |
Murdered In Wash.;
ft SUMNER, Wash. <jP) — The
badly bruised and twice-shot body
of a man about 35 years old was
found on a brush-covered hill
near here yesterday.
Pierce county sheriff Lee Croft !
said the man, who was “either a
Filipino or an Indian,” had been
shot through the heart and be- j
neath the eyes.
“It was a plain case of murder,”
Croft said.
Croft’s deputies reported the
only identification was clothing
which had been purchased in
Long Beach, Calif., and several ,
match folders from Seattle.
The body was found on Elhi •
Hill by Robert Walker, Enumclaw.
The victim had been dead about
three hours, coroner Paul Mellin
ger estimated.

Devaluation Will
Aid Canada
((/P) Special Washington Service*
WASHINGTON, (A*)—Rep. Rus
sell Mack (R.-Wash.) predicted
today that foreign currency de
valuation will have an adverse
effect on W’est Coast lumber, fish
and pulp paper industries.
Mack said it still is too early to
appraise the full effect of devalu
ation. But, he added, it probably
will mean increased exports from
Canada.
Canada, he told a reporter, al
ready is able to undersell United
utates lumber producers because
of lower wage rates. With a 10
percent devaluation of the Cana
dian dollar, he said, the costs of
production will be cut another 10
per cent.
Mack suggested that a partial
answer might lie in restoration of
tariffs on imports from Canada.
Greek Guerrilla
War AH But Over
WASHINGTON, (/p>—Secretary
of State Acheson said today that
the Greek government’s war with
communist-led guerrillas is prac
tically over. Reduction of Ameri
can aid to Greece would seem to
be an indicated step, he added.
Acheson told his news confer
ence that there are only about
2,000 guerrillas left in Greece and
they are widely scattered and
mainly concerned wit ha search
for food.
Before there is a decision on cut
ting American military assistance
to the Greek government, Acheson
said the U. S. will have to find
out what the Athens regime pro
poses to do with its bilitary estab
lishment. American aid has been
given for more than two years.
Reduction of the Greek armed
forces—which number more than
200,000—would seem to be an in
dicated step, the secretary said.
