So far, neither the Government of the United States, of which he is a citizen, nor the Associated Press, by whom he is employed, has made as much of an issue of Mr. Oatis as was made of Mr. Vogeler According to a dispatch from Frankfort, United States authorities propose to demand Mr. Oatis’ release as soon as his sentence is confirmed by the Czech legal reviewing authority. However, nothing was said as to whether the United States would go as far as it did to obtain the release of Mr. Vogeler by the payment of a huge ransom. Strangely, the American press been usually apathetic toward the plight of one of its newsmen. It has reported the facts faithfully and editorialized to some extent, taking the line that his trial was ‘phony’. But beyond that, it has been more reticent than indigant over this outrageous treat- ment of an American citizen.

But the Pentagon briefing officer, anxious to prove! that the Chinese have used the truce talks to build up their strength, blurted out the move- ment of this particular division to a roomful of newsmen to which foreign correspondents are admit- ted. When General Bradley heard of this, he tried to call army chief) of staff, General Joe Collins, but couldn’t reach him. So he sum- moned assistant Chief of Staff Maj. Gen. C. L. Bolte and ordered a full investigation of who pulled the boner. Note—Bradley was also irked at the army spokesman’s statement that the U. N. deliberately halted its offensive, though we could have continued on to the Yalu River. This was why the Defense Department later officially dis- avowed the army spokesman, Joe Martin and MacArthur Good old ex-speaker Joe Martin of Massachusetts, the original | to be no limit,” declares the re- port, As a result, the government is| forced to pay “four to five times”| the actual cost, and the ‘profits are split between all the middle: | men—the manufacturer, assemb- ler, distributors, retailer and re- pairman—who each receive ‘“sub- | stantially the complete value of the part.” ! “Where the part is expensive, | the price may be shaved down to three or four times its original value; and where the value of the part is relatively small, ten or| even more times its value may be charged,” the report explains. Military Also to Blame The blame is placed not only | upon the automotive industry, but | also on the military procurement | officers. “This system _ of overpricing,” the report charges, “apparently is not unknown to the highest sup- | ervisory echelon of the military spending agencies.” | The report also blasts “the un- necessary continuance of actual champion of General MacArthur was pretty sore because he wasn't invited to sit with the General when MacArthur spoke to the Massachusetts legislature. Martin is not only the leading Congressman from Massachusetts, but published the letter which led to Truman’s firing MacArthur— some people think in a prearran- | ged plan to bring the General home in a blaze of glory. However, the Boston reception committee declined to invite Joe to sit on the floor of the Massa- | chusetts legislature during the | General’s speech. So Martin de- cided not to attend the Boston ceremonies at all. “I don't think TId look very good,” explained the ex-speaker to friends. “One minute I'd be rid- jng with the General in the mo- torcade, and the next minute sit- | ting outside the state capitol with | his chauffeur.” or theoretical middlemen” as “war profiteering of the rankest sort.” “There can be little question that the needs of the sovereiga | for defense are paramount, and that where some citizens are call- ed on to die, the others may be called on to ‘accept only reason- able profits” the report states. ' One typical example, described by the investigators, is the case of a windshield assembly. The | Troy Sunshade Company, the manufacturer, sold the windshield | to the army for $28.64. This ap- | parently was too cheap to suit the Federal Motor Truck Company which designed the windshield and owned the dies.
