Merry-Go-Round
(Copyright. Mto. by Bell Syndicate, Inc.)
By DREW PEARSON
Washington — Though con
gress has authorized President
Truman to invoke price controls,
he continues to do nothing about
it. Meanwhile, the deadly spiral
of inflation goes up and up, and
the buying power of the American
people's dollar gets less and less.
The housewife probably doesn't
need to read this in the newspaper,
but the nation’s market basket
now costs her almost 20 per cent
more than she spent to feed her
family before the outbreak of the
Korean war last June.
Here are a few examples:
Creamery butter is up 16 per
cent since June, while the average
family’s bread and bakery bill has
risen between 8 and 10 per cent.
The price of bacon is up 16 per
cent since June.
The family milk bill has risen
about 18 per cent on a nation-wide
average.
Round steak is up 33 per cent
since June—pork chops, 10 per
cent.
A dozen eggs costs 70 cents and

Taku River
Escapement
Satisfying
Escapement of salmon for spawn
ing has been good along the tribu
taries of the Taku River, C. L. An
derson, Director of the Alaska De
partment of Fisheries said today. He
returned yesterday from an aerial
stream survey trip in that area.
He found evidence of good coho
spawning in the Taku and its tribu
taries from salt water to points 60
miles up stream. Investigations up
the headwaters, 200 miles from salt
water, showed a good spawning of
red salmon in several unnamed
lakes. One lake about 12 miles long
and one mile wide was especially
gratifying in reds, he said. He
pointed out that this time of year
was late for red salmon to spawn.
Alaska Fishermen's
Union Receives
Independent Charier
BELLINGHAM, Wash., Oct. 4—UPI
—An Independent charter was in
stalled here last night by the Alaska
Fishermen’s Union Local.
The Alaska fishermen have voted
to withdraw from the International
Fishermen and Allied Workers
Union which was tossed out of the
CIO because its leaders allegedly
followed the Communist party line.
“We are not Communist and
never intend to follow them,” said
Secretary E. M. Berg.
Similar independent charters will
be installed at Portland and San
Francisco, Berg said. Union agents
will meet Friday at Seattle.
Three Persons Are
Drowned in B. C.
Boat Collision
VANCOUVER, Oct. 4— UR —The
bodies of three employees of the
British Columbia Forestry Service
were sought in the choppy waters
off Bowen Island today following
a collision between a coastal steam
ship and a launch.
Four other persons—one seriously
Injured—were rescued by the Union
Steamship Line’s Lady Cynthia
which late yesterday smashed into
the Provincial Forestry Department
launch, A. L. Bryant, while en route
to Vancouver from her daily pass
enger and cargo run up the coast.
The missing, presumed drowned,
were identified as F. A. Longstaff,
30; W. M. Ingram, about 30, both of
Vancouver ,and A. P. Wrotnowski
of North Vancouver, B. C., age un
available. t
Rescued were Frank Paterson of
Vancouver; H. M. Coles, North
Vancouver; J. W. McDonald and J.
H. Kilby, both of Burnaby, B. C.
Paterson was in poor condition
here with one arm almost severed.
The other three suffered shock.
Two of the 50 passengers aboard
the 925-ton Lady Cynthia said the
accident occurred when "the launch
either tried to beat us across or
else it went out of control.”

THOUSANDS
ARE SLAIN
AT SEOUL
SEOUL. Oct. 4—<*>—A South Ko
rean official estimated today the
Communists massacred more than
10,000 Seoul residents before being
driven from the capital city by U.S.
Marines and Doughboys.
"Several thousand more are re
ported lying in the hills.” said Lee
Joong Choon, chief of the Municipal
Public Information section ol
Seoul. “Many were dumped into
rivers by the Reds.”
Lee said the city actually had
buried only 375 bodies, some of them
victims of the street-by-street fight
ing for Seoul. ,
Another source, who declined to
be identified, said mass killings were
not the work of North Koreans
alone. He said the number of non
combatants slain by both the Com
munist police and South Korean
soldiers probably would total sev
eral tens of thousands in all South
Korea.
AP Correspondent Stan Swinton
reported from Kunsan, west coast
port, that a survivor told United
Nations investigators 2,000 South
Koreans were killed at Chongju. The
investigators there are Lt. CoL
Benito N. Ebuen and Major D.
Dionisio Ojeda, both of the Philip
pines.
One source said “People’s Courts”
in Seoul were organized hastily and
in operation within 10 days after
Communist occupation of the capi
tal June 28. He said political prison
ers were “tried” this way:
The prisoners were marched to
the balcony of the people’s theater
building. The charges were read and
the crowd below was asked:
"Guilty or not guilty?”
He said executions followed in
variably.
Alaska Steam
May Cut Out
Passengers
SEATTLE, Oct. 4—Ml—The Al
aska Steamship Company today an
nounced it will be compelled to
suspend passenger service unless
the Marine Cooks and Stewards'
Union (independent) submits to
screening of its members without
delays.
The screening Is by the Coast
Guard under the Federal Maritime
Security program.
D. E. Skinner, vice president and
general manager of the company,
said if passenger service is sus
pended, it will become effective
I for the Baranof, scheduled to sail
at 5 p.m. Friday.
Skinner said the Baranof will
carry only 10 cooks and stewards
instead of 54, if passenger service
is suspended. Some 50 passengers
have been booked already for the
voyage. The vessel carries approxi
mately 130 passengers.
"We recognize the hardships the
suspension of passenger service will
impose on the Alaskan people, but
this decision has been reached
only after two months of turmoil
and confusion,” Skinner said.
“There is no indication from the
union that the situation can oo
anything but deteriorate.”
Skinner said Charles Nichols, Se
attle Port Agent of the Union, had
refused an invitation to discuss the
matter with company officials yes
terday.
The Union insists that it would
be told the reason members are
considered poor secruity risks, Skin
ner said, yet it has never made
use of appeal procedures provided.
The Union recently was expelled
by the National CIO on a charge
it followed the Communist Party
line.

Turkey to Be
Associated in
Atlantic Pact
WASHINGTON, Oct. 4—UR—Tur
key has accepted an Invitation "to
be associated with" Atlantic Pact
defense planning in the Medlter
ranian area.
Under the arrangement, Turkey
does not, however, become a full
fledged member of the 12-nation
defense alliance.
The State Department today dis
closed Turkey’s acceptance of the
invitation by making public an ex
change of notes between Secretary
Acheson and the Turkish Ambas
sador, Feridun C. Erkin.
Acheson acted on behalf of the
foreign ministers of the 12 treaty
nations who met in New York last
weeks to plan increased defense
preparations.
Acheson's note said:
“It is the view of the council
that association of the Turkish
Government with the appropriate
phase of the planning work of the
North Atlantic Treaty organization
with regard to the defense of the
Mediterranean would contribute sig
nificantly to the defense of that
area.”

Judge Publishes Docu
ments Proving Treason
of American Commies
V f' -
PITTSBURGH, Oct. 4 — UR —
Judge Michael A. Musmanno today
released seized Communist docu
ments which he said "establish
without question that the Commu
nist party in America is a war
machine with lte primary and fun
damental objective the overthrow
of the government.”
Musmanno made public photo
static copies of documents found in |
a raid August 31 on the Pittsburgh j
headquarters of the Communist j
party of western Pennsylvania.
Originals of 17 of the papers
were sent by Musmanno to the
House Un-American Activities
Committee.
Musmanno, Alegheny County

cratic nominee for lieutenant gov
ernor of Pennsylvania in the Nov
ember 7 election. He was a judge
at the Oerman war crimes trials
and has waged a vigorous anti
communist campaign from the

EPIDEMIC POLIO
IN WEST, NORTH;
NO MORE HERE
The steady spread of poliomyelitis
in Anchorage and Fairbanks with
cases divided about evenly between
civilian and military residents,
amounts to an epidemic there, Ter
ritorial Health Department officials
reluctantly decided today.
Since August 10. Dr. Robert P.
Gorman, Fairbanks^'Health Officer,
has reported 13 cases to date, while
10 have been reported from An
chorage.
There is uncertainty as to whether
some of these reports are duplica
tions, as several Ladd Field patients
are believed to have been transfer
red to the Fort Richardson Hospital,
and possibly to the states.
The “score” for Southeast Alaska
remains the same. There was a
death September 20 in Ketchikan
and one active case remains.
One mild case was reported here.
The young Juneau patient is greatly
improved, and has been allowed
to walk around a little in his room
at 8t. Ann’s hospital. •
A Health Department spokesman
said today that reports Indicate the
recently reported cases were diag
nosed as polio of a non-paralytic
nature.

TROOPS
IN KOREA
Supply Column from Man
churia Is Attacked by
U. '5. Aircraft
(By Associated Press)
General MacArthur announced
today a new reinforcing division—
the U. S. Third Infantry—has ar
rived to join the Korean fighting
as South Koreans pushed further
into North Korean territory.
The South Koreans were reported
60 miles beyond parallel 38 in om
inously empty country. The Red
Army appeared to have vanished
but there were signs it was pre
paring a build-up in front of Won
san, important Communist oil re
finery port.
Field dispatches said 4,000 Com
munists are digging into strong
defenses southeast of Tongchon.
That town is 25 miles from Kosa
ong, now occupied by South Kor
eans, and is about 30 miles from
Wonsan.
The arrival of the Third Infantry
brings the total American strength
to six divisions plus a regimental
combat team.
Only South Korean troops have
penetrated north of the 38th para
llel. All other Allied troops are
busy in mopping up operations.
Besides the Americans these in
clude British, Australian, and Phil
ippines ground forces. Thai and
French units also have been as
signed to the operation.
No Chinese Troops flighted Yet
An Air Force spokesman said
the Red mystery column spotted
yesterday snaking down from the
direction of the Manchurian bor
der was a regular highway supply
train. He said the transport col
umn moving in from Communist
China was not a foreign troop
movement.
The Fifth Air Force said a 150
vehicle convoy was sighted Tues
day night by two Allied B-26 pi
lots. It was spotted 50 miles north
west of Pyongyang, North Korean
capital. Presumably it was the same
southward bound column attacked
earlier by Allied planes.
Bad flying weather cut down Al
lied air operations. Most fighters
were grounded Wednesday morning.
Radio Pyongyang, voice of North
Korean Communists, admitted Red
forces were withdrawing on all
fronts. It said they would under
take "new duties" but did not speci
fy what these duties would be. The
indication was the Reds would
make a last-ditch stand in the
north. Their broadcasts said work
ers were leaving the factories to
take up guns.
Guerrilla Action Foreseen
Washington observers said all this
pointed up the possibility that the
Communist Army might break up
into guerrilla forces which could
fight on for months or even years.
This might mean an indefinite
delay in bringing real peace to the
war-torn country. It would bring
a prolonged drain on American
military strength, which may be
the overall Communist aim, these
informants said.
The Communists have resorted to
guerrilla warfare in Greece, China
and Indochina The Chinese Reds
built up as their strength and at
tained great skill at hit and run
guerrilla tactics before they toppled
the forces of Nationalist Chiang
cal-Shek.
UN Showdown Coming
The 60-natlon political commit
tee of the United Nations faced
i showdown fight over two rival
plans for the future of Korea.
The American-backed proposal
submitted by Britain and seven
sther nations is expected to win an
overwhelming victory. It calls for
i short military occupation of Kor
;a by United Nations troops, free
‘lections, and the rebuilding of a
United Korea under UN direction.
The rival Russian-backed pro
posal is expected to get votes only
from the Soviet bloc. It calls for
the immediate withdrawal of Uni
ted Nations forces after a cease
fire.
India and Yugoslavia worked for
a compromise between the two
plans but there was little likeli
hood their efforts would be suc
:essful.

8CHIBE PARK. Oct. 4—tfi-Yan
kee Vic Raschi won the opening
World Series game today. 1-0, in a
brilliant pitching duel with Jim
Konstanty, the Phillies sensational
relief ace, before 30,746 fans.
Bobby Brown’s double, followed
by two outfield flies, produced the
game’s only run in the fourth in
ning.
Russ Meyer, a righthander with
a 9-11 season record, was the new
Philly pitcher in the ninth.
Meyer got a tough break when
grimmer took a nasty hoik
off the edge of the grass and
bounded away from Jones for a
scratch single opening the ninth.
But he retired the side without a
score.
Raschi, strong-armed righthander
who pitched the "big games” for
the Yanks all season, set down the
National League champs with two
singles. Both came in the fifth in
ning, the only time the Phils had a
man as far as second base.
Bespectacled Jim allowed only
four hits in his eight innings. His
first start since he was pitching
with Toronto in 1943.
After 74 record breaking relief
jobs Jim finally got ills chance to
start but lost a toughie. Russ Meyer
pitched the ninth inning after he
was yanked for a pinch hitter.
Raschi, showing no signs of a
sore shoulder that troubled him on
the Yanks’ last western trip, struck
out five men and walked only one.
Willie Jones and Andy Seminick
singled in the fifth but that was all.
Konstanty, bespectacled 33-year
old bullpen king, survived serious

ging ball into left field led off
the to irth. Hank Bauer’s fly to

i fly to Dick Sisler near the stands
In left field. There was no chance
to get Brown at the plate.

yanks from Don Newcombe of the
Dodgers. In 1948 Bobby Feller of
Cleveland lost his two-hitter to Bos
