Averill Harriman said today he be- lieves the Kremlin now regards the Communist attack in Korea as “a major blunder.” “They expected to attain an easy victory, demoralize the United Na- tions, and discredit American lead- ership,” he said. “Not only has this ;‘plz\n failed, but the aggression in ’Knrea has arcused our country and our allies to undertake greatly ac- 5C0,000,000 foreign aid program fense.” Harriman, former Ambassador to Moscow and now a special as: ant to President Truman, was be- fore the House Foreign Affairs Ccmmittee to urge prompt enact- ment of the administration’s $8,- 500,600,000 (b) foreign aid program for 1952. The money would go for both economic and arms aid. Relaxation Dangerous Harriman said one danger con- fronting the United States is in- flation, but “perhaps the greatest danger of all is the danger of re- laxation” in contemplation of a {Korean truce. He added: “The Kremlin would like nothing better than to have us think that we can safely relax, while the Soviets continue to build their military strength.” On the other side of the Capitol, Senator Sparkman (D,-Ala.) said in an interview that the United States must not accept any peace agreement that makes the 38th iparallel an International boundary {between two Koreas.

'ROD DARNELL LANDS RECORD KING SALMON Rod Darnell proved himself a skillful angler Sunday, despite a line tangled with that of Tom Pet- rich who*had also hooked a sal- mon and the anchor line. He landed a 68-pound king salmon in vicinity of North Island. It is believed that the fish is the largest to be landed on sports tackle in this area. Rod was using Ia 15-pound test leader and 20- pound test nylon line. It took him only an hour and a half to land the king. However, not satisfied, Rod went on to land a ‘52-pounder and a 48-pounder, just to prove his skill, while Mrs. Darnell and Mr. and Mrs. Petrich looked on. “Why couldn’t it happen during the Salmon Derby?” Rod sighed.
