FORCES MOVE TOWARD SHOWDOWN U.S. SUPREME COURT BEGINS NEW SESSION WASHINGTON, Oct. 2—®—An 11-minute session started the Su-| preme Court today on a new term | destined to yield far-reaching de- cisions on national problems. Led by Chief Justice Vinson, eight black-robed jurists marched slowly into a packed courtroom on the | stroke of noon. Justice William O. | Douglas joined his colleagues on the high bench just two minutes before the court recessed. Douglas had flown back from a tour of the Far East. He hurried from the airport to take part in the opening session. Today’s formalities included the admission of 28 attorneys to prac- tice before the high tribunal. The court’s actual business for the 1950-51 term will get underway next Monday. Principal interest in the new term centers on legal issues involved in Communist activities and race rela- tions.

This is illegal, Now, additional and highly sig- nificant facts have come to light which may make the Congressman’s violation of the law even more ser- ious. The FBI, in investigating Mr. Brehm’s kickback arrangement, talked to Ray Soliday, son of Mrs. Soliday, who sometimes carried the kickback money to the Congress- man. Because of the FBI investiga- tion, Congressman Brehm went to young Soliday and urged him to tell the FBI the same story he (Brehm) had told the FBI—namely, that he had paid the kickback money to the Republican campaign commit- tee in the 11th Congressional Dis- trict of Ohio. Brehm also wanted Soliday to agree that the money kicked back amounted to only 1,200 during the three years his mother worked for Truman Says U. S. fo Keep Berlin Free West German Police Pre- vents Communist Riofs and Demonstration DUESSELDORF, Germany, 2—(M—West German police claimed a decisive victory over Communist who attempted to turn yesterday into a bloody wave of riots ‘and demonstrations. Police jailed more than 1,400 Red ringleaders and broke up every at- tempt they made to start riots in a score of cities. The day marked for bloodshed ended with nothing more serious than scattered fist fights and stone throwing. About 30 police were hurt in the skirmishes. Meanwhile, the people of Soviet- encircled Berlin received assurance yesterday from President Truman of continued aid to keep the city free. The President’s message was delivered by Paul G, Hoffman, re- tiring chief of the economic coop- eration administration, in a speech at the opening of the German in- dustrial fair in Berlin. “Our aid will continue,” Truman’s message declared, “for we are con- fident of the eagerness of the Ger- man people and their republic to join the free of the world in de- fense of all that we cherish.” STRIKE CLOSES THREE PAPERS AT PITTSBURGH (By the Associated Press) The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette failed to publish today after AFL mailers called a strike on the city’s three daily newspapers. The Post-Gazette is the city's only | morning newspaper. The strike also closed the city’s two afternoon papers—the Sun-Telegraph and the Press. Only a few copies were seen off the presses. Meanwhile, nearly 50,000 em- ployees of Westinghouse Electric Corporation were granted a 10 cent hourly pay boost and improved pen- sion benefits. The company reached an agreement with the CIO Inter- national Union of Electric Workers (IUE). Negotiations are continuing with three other unions in Westing- house which represent 50,000 work- ers. The pay boost is retroactive to last Sept. 18. In Pittsburgh the Mailers’ Union Local No. 22, a local unit of the International Typographical Union, struck after failure to reach a new contract agreement. The three newspapers, in a joint statement, said both the mailers and Local 211, AFL Teamsters (Drivers) threatened to strike and that the drivers said they would support the mailers if those workers struck first. - Other labor developments: More than 4,000 AFL cigar work- ers at Tampa, Fla., will vote today on whether to strike for an across the board wage hike of about 20 cents an hour. A threatened strike of 6,000 AFL and CIO hotel workers at Phila- delphia was averted last night. Increased Income Taxes Are Now In Effect WASHINGTON, Oct. 2—{/P—The government is taking a deeper hite} out of all paychecks from now on. | New Federal income tax with- holding rates went into effect yes- terday., That means more than 25,- 000,000 American workers will find the withholding taxes taken out of their next paychecks about a fifth greater. { The bigger “take” from pay- checks is needed to keep taxpayers | on a pay-as-you-go basis under the | tax boosts voted by Congress to provide money for the country’s big defense build-up.

RESOLUTION - LAKE SUCCESS, Oct. 2 — (M — | Russia’s Andrei Y. Vishinsky icharged today the eight-nation U.N. resolution on Korea constituted “di- rect aggression” against the people ior that country and was designed to | can intervention there. In a policy speech before the U.N. Assembly’s Political Committee, the Soviet Foreign Minister promised to put in a resolution of his own to | counter the measure under debate. He said the eight-nation proposal was designed to perpetuate the oc- cupation of all of Korea by foreign forces and added: “When will they get out? Well, { perhaps when the mountains are level with the sea.” | US. Chief Delegate Warren R. Austin said in a statement outside the committee that Vishinsky's ac- i cusations were merely “repetitions of the big lie.” He predicted Vishin- | sky’s charges would have no effect | because “rotton wood cannot be carved nor walls of sand be plast- |ered.” | The American-supported proposal | which Vishinsky attacked calls for | United Nations aid and supervision of the pacification, unification and | rehabilitation of the whole of Ko- ! rea. It also calls for a new U.N. com- mission with broad powers to help reorganize the political and eco- nomic life of the war-torn country.

Oct. 2—(®—A brief period of freedom for two 14-year-old reform school boys brought death to a State Police- man yesterday. The two tough-talking youths were captured after terrorizing a northwest -Oregon area. Officer Dale Courtney, 27, a rook- ie in the State Police, was felled ‘by a shotgun blast yesterday in an abandoned farmhouse where the 14 year olds were hiding. Held in the slaying and lesser crimes before and after the of- ficer’s death are Henry Thomas O’- Newberg. They fled from the State Training School at Woodburn Sat- urday evening. State Police Sgt. James Maulding said O'Day had admitted pulling the trigger of the shotgun. He said formal charges awaited action of the Washington Country District Attorney. @ The Sergeant said the blast also peppered Fred Plieth. He had al- erted police and accompartied Courtney to the small house near his’ Tigard farm. ® o v 0 0 0 .

Navy ships off Korea have found “a great many floating min- es” of Russian type, Sherman, the chief of naval oper- ations, told the House Armed Ser- | vices Committee that an examina- tion of recovered mines indicated they had been “recently laid and not long out of the storehouse.” On last Wednesday, the U. S. destroyer Brush hit a floating mine and a hole was torn in her bottom, Nine men were killed, 10 injured, and five are missing. The destroyer was able to make her way to a Japanese port. Sherman said the mines recov- ered were “Mark 26” Russian mines, Marine-Navy Casualties Total 1,970 WASHINGTON, Oct. 2 — (# — Admiral Forrest Sherman said today that Navy and Marine Corps casu- alties in the Korean war now total 1,970. This figure is 974 higher than the most recent total announced by the Defense Department. The Depart- ment's records included only those casualties whose next-of-kin had been notified through Sept. 22. Sherman, Chief of Naval Opera- tions, told the House Armed Serv- iges Committee the Marine Corps has lost 280 killed in action, 1,565 wounded and 30 missing in action. Navy losses, he said, are 24 killed, 60 wounded and 11 n ing. His testimony was given during a hearing on the Navy's construction He described them as a rather stan- |dard type and containing enough explosives to damage small ships. He said they were of the moored type, but the indications were they had been floated down rivers or perhaps laid by small craft. Sherman said that in addition to the Destroyer Brush there has been mine damage to a small vessel. He did not identify the ship but said there were some fatalities. Sherman was called before the committte primarily for quest- |ioning about the effect of price rises on the Navy's construction { program. Some Congress members have estimated soaring prices have, in effect, cost the Navy a submar- ine. POLIO CASES TOTAL 16 IN TERRITORY; 1 LIGHT CASE HERE One very light case or pollomye- litis from which, according to the attending physician, there will be no residual of paralysis, has been reported to the Juneau Health of- ficer. Michael Ricke, 4-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Gerald C. Ricke (Jean VanderLeest), was taken to St. Ann’s }hospizal Saturday, after his illness had been diagnosed as a mild case {of “polio.” 1 This case and a new one reported from Fairbanks (that of a 12-year- old girl) brings the total of known cases in Alaska to 16. Dr. C. C. Carter, Juneau Health Officer, said today: “This one case is a very light one, and the child is not of school age. Even if there were a suspected epidemic, we do not consider it good business to close the schools. “Besides being under the careful observation of a good nurse, the children are kept more quiet than | they might be at home. They aren’t | tearing around, using up their en- | ergy, getting wet and cold. It is im- | portant not to interrupt healthy, {normal routine. “This looks like just another of |I.he sporadic cases here. As I recall offhand, it is about the fourth case in 15 or 16 years.” Dr. Carter’s opinion is shared by top officials of the Territorial Health Department and of experts making up the National Conference on Poliomyelitis. ‘Among comments emanating from the Conference are: “The closing |of schools has mnot affected the course of outbreaks of poliomyelitis . . The highest incidence of this virus disease is in summer and early fall. In the United States, an an- nual incidence of 10 paralytic cases per 100,000 population is ordinary, but there is wide variation in inci- dence from year to year and region to region.

FIVE THOUSAND SOUTH KOREANS ARE MASSACRED 1,100 Civilian Bodies Are Recovered Including 30 U. goldiers By BEM PRICE TAEJON, Korea, Oct. 2—{P—The pall of death hangs heavily over this town of rubbled tile and tin, Already the bodies of 1,100* mas- sacred Korean civillans have been found. Nearly 700 were in and around a Franciscan monastery. Some authorities say 5,000 to 6,000 persons may have been killed by North Korean Security Police Wed- nesday and Thursday. Among the dead were 30 Ameri- can soldiers. It is feared 13 more may be buried in a trench not yet completely uncovered. There were three known survivors of the slaughter—two Americans and one South Korean. One of the Americans died since. Lt. ‘Robert W. Shultice, Norfolk, Va., said both Americans and the South Korean were buried alive, but only lightly. They were discovered as they struggled through the dirt for air. Shultice is investigating the atrocities for the Judge Advocate General. The Americans were tied by their wrists to dead men. All of the slain were bound arm to arm. Seeing this stung the imagination. It was no mad orgy. There was no wild machine-gunning. It was a coldly calculated massacre. Each man had been shot individually. Many apparently were clubbed to make sure they were dead. One man had a hatchet sticking from his skull. The surviving local citizens say the South Korean dead were known anti-Communists, the wealthy, rela- tives of soldiers, National Police and their relatives. WEATHER IS HOT AND COLD OVER U. 5. YESTERDAY CHICAGO, Oct. 2—M—Autumn behaved like winter and summer today. It was blustery and cold in the Pacific Northwest, Northern Rockies and Northern Plains. The Midwest and Eastern Seaboard sweltered in summerlike heat and humidity. There were these extremes: New York City had a reading yesterday of 884 degrees—highest for the date in 69 years. Livingston, Mont., had a low of 10 and a mid-day reading of 25. A weekend storm in the central Rockies piled up snow to a depth of 16 inches.

KO-REDS ARE IN RETREAT Chinese Communists Threaten to Assist North Koreans (By Associated Press) The South Korean Third Division struck 30 miles beyond the 38th parallel into North Korea today, rolling swiftly along the enemy's east coast. Two regiments of the South Korean capital division also were across and were turning west- ward from Yaugyang, seven mileg north of the border and the first North Korean town to fall. Yangyang fell after a juncture of Third and Capital Division troops there, A. U. S. liaison officer with the first corps said the Reds fled the town so hurriedly that they left blankets on their bunks and iield radios turned on. He said the Capital Division was pushing on against “very, very light resis- tance.” Silent On Surrender The Reds, whose government at Pyongyang remained silent on Gen. MacArthur's ultimatum to surren- der at once or face invasion and total defeat, were reported plan- ning a last ditch stand on the east coast at Wonsan, a big town directly opposite Pyongyang, which is on the west coast. North Korean prisoners said they had been order- ed to ge ‘onsan, 7 W of pnxfizlfii}gfigm &e Gfim ists were organizing their battered forces. . Millions of leaflets dropped by planes spread the word of the Uni- ted States commander’s ultimatum in North Korea, but MacArthur's headquarters said nothing about the thrust into Red territory. An offic- ial announcement was expected soon, however, on this new phase of the war, which may become a test of the Communist World's in- tentions. Possible Intervention from China The Premier of China, North Korea’s big neighbor, saild in a weekend radio broadcast that China would not “supinely tolerate seeing her neighbors being savagely invaded by the imperialists.” But the Communists have called the war a South Korean invasion from the start. Dispatches in Moscow’s press still reported battling in the Seoul area, and did not report any crossing of the parallel by southern forces. American Marines north of Seoul pushed ahead 10 miles and held positions as much as 18 miles from the liberated capital of South Kor- ea, driving on Uijongbu, main Red training center 30 miles north of Seoul. They were taking time to wipe out enemy pockets, while Al- lied forees mopped up behind them. Many Reds Captured To the south, U. S. Seventh Di- vision troops captured Ichon, 20 miles east of Suwon. Still farther south, Allied troops cleared away roadblocks near Poun, 15 miles northeast of Taejon. Otherwise, the badly scattered Reds, who numbered at least 130,- 000 in the south only a month ago, were apparently trying to filter (Continued on Page Two) Two Men Missing On Secret Mission To Alaska HAMILTON, Ont., Oct. 2—P— A Hamilton man said today he has learned that an Alaskan Airways pilot and a Pittsburgh scientist have been missing since May 9 on a flight in the Bering Sea region. Colin Mills said his information was received yesterday from the mother of the scientist, Rogers Dean Hamilton. The pilot is Bert Gal- braith, 44, formerly of Hamilton. Mills said Galbraith’s mother, Mrs. Thomas Wilson of Hamilton, was informed yesterday by the U.S. Army that no trace has been found of her son. Mills said he understands the men were on a “U.S. Navy scientific mission,” and were last heard of— presumably by radio—when near ‘Tiiguarik Island, near the Alaskan coast. He understood the mission was “highly secret,”
