L. Flanigen, New Pay Hike Plan Considered WASHINGTON, Feb. 24—(AP) * —Economic Stabilizer Eric John ston was reported tonight consid ering a policy permitting pay in=- creases above 10 per cent where they already are provided by cur rent union contracts. There were some signs this is the most likely administration step to soften the present wage con- | trol proposal, which would limit’ salary increases to 10 per cent above levels of Jan. 15, 1950, re- | gardless of present contracts. | High officials have indicated | this formula would be modifiedi perhaps next week. | Union leaders in the vital elee- | trical manufacturing industry threatened a strike unless the for mula is softened. They said it would “rob” them of three or four cents an hour due March 15 under | their present contract. ! The flat 10 per cent formula was | proposed by a majority of thel Wage Stabilization Board ( WSB), | composed of three members each | from labor, industry and the pub lic.

Pangnim, 38 miles south of the 38th Parallel, is the junction point of a lateral highway from Hoeng song and a main road that winds 42 miles northeast to the coast. Hoengsong, 25 road miles west of Pangnim, is the key to the Com munist central defense line. American tanks Saturday crashed through Hoengsong to slug toe to toe with the enemy to the north. “Strike and kill,” was the com mand, not advance, The Eighth Army estimates that 120,171 Chlnese and North WEST CENTRAL FRONT, Korea, Feb. 24 —(AP)— Maj. Gen. Bryant E. Moore, 56, com mander of the U, 8. Ninth Corps, died today shortly after his heli copter crashed in the Han river near the front, ‘ Korean Reds have been killed, captured or wounded in ground action alone since its offensive got under way one month ago today. The figure for Friday was 1,635. Americans Rescued The Americans rescued two wounded Americans who had been hiding in Hoengsong since the Chi nese Reds seized the town Feb. 13. Seven other Americans were res cued in the vicinity. Little activity was reported from other sectors of the 60-mile front ‘on a day tha# marked the #nd of eight months of fighting in Korea. The first general thaw of the year, coming on top of the worst rain since the eampaign began eight months ago, was causing the United Nationg troops more trou ble than the fighting rearguards of the retreating enemy. Huge C-119 flying boxcars of the 314th troop carrier group de livered ammunition and food to front line troops advancing over terrain where trucks could not follow. Despite the mud and Red resis tance, Allied forces continued to slug out varying gains along the central front. Command Change Front line sources said Satur day that Gen. Lin Piao, reputedly Red China’s top field commander, has been transferred from his command of Chinese Communist forces in Korea. His new job, a reliable source said, is command of the south and central military districts of Chi na. The split does not necessarily mean Lin has fallen from favor with the Chinese politburo in Peiping. The new Chinese commander in Korea, the source said, is Gen. Peng Teh-Huai, deputy eomman der of all Chinese Red armies, Two Arrested Lt. B. B, Hardy and Det, Walter McKinnon, jr., of the city police department, arrested Willie Huff, colored, on Water street, and Sam Stanford, also colored, on Hoyt street yesterday, The officers’ re port stated that Huff had in his possession two gallons of non-taxs paid whiskey at the time of the arrest and that Stanford had two and-a-half gallons. X Both were turned over to coun ty authorities on warrants charf ing possession of non-tax-paid whiskey. US Commanders Sure Of Victory TOKYO, Feb. 24—(AP)—Top American commanders here say they are winning the stalemate in Korea. ¥ Paradoxical as this may sound, they figure that the United Na tions forces are making a military profit through destruction of Com=- munist manpower. 5 ) Disregarding recovery of ground and concentrating on inflicting casualties on the enemy, they fiﬁ ure the profit will increase the longer the campaign continues, Given time, the American com=- manders are confident they can smash the Chinese Communist army in the bloody valleys and hills of Korea. They are now con vinced that the Chinese hordes cannot drive the United Nations forces into the sea. £ 7 This is the background for evi dent” oytimism in Tokyo and in the field over current events in Korea. oL Gone fs the tenseness of a few weeks ago, when it looked as if the Chinese might be able fto overwhelm the outnumbered al lies. s ST b bt the’ AL lies are chopping it down. Governor Dewey Asks Troops Be Sent To Europe WASHINGTON, Feb. 24—(AP) —Gov. Thomas E, Dewey of New York today called om Congress to approve the sending of troops to Europe to show the United States is not “turning tail”™ or “hauling down the flag.” He strongly opposed the Wher ry resolution. This resolution by Senator Wherry (Neb.), Republi can floor leader, would disapprove sending more troops to Europe un til Congress says so. The admin istration is planning to send four divisions. The Wherry proposal is the di rect issue before the Senate in the flaming debate over using Ameri can foot soldiers to supplement air and sea power in backing up free Europe’s defense against Rus sia, Dewey, laying his views before the Senate Foreign Relations and Armed Services Committees, said he favored direct Congressional ac tion approving the sending of troops without restricting the numbers. The committees interrupted Dewey briefly to vote an invita tion to’ former president Herbert Hoover to testify. Hoover refused a week ago to appear, saying the committees already knew his views and they first should dig out much more ‘“fundamental information” from others. However, Senator Wiley (R.- Wis.) said he had just been told that Hoover can be in Washington Tuesday. The Hoover and Dewey views are completely at odds on sending troops to Europe. Hoover con tends a ground fight should be avoided, with reliance placed or sea and air power.- C. W. Jackson Hurt In Auto Accident Friday Clarence W, Jackson, Athens businessman who was hurt in an automobile wreck near Center in Jackson county Friday night, was reported Saturday at General Hos pital to be in a “fair” condition. The full extent of his injuries had not been determined yesterday afternoon. Mr. Jackson was conscious yes terday, although when he was res cued from the wrecked car in which he had been riding he was in an unconscioug state. State highway patrol investiga tors had not been able yesterday to find out the cause of the wreck because Mr. Jackson’s condition would not permit him to discuss it,, and there were no apparent eye-witnesses. The patrolmen, however, learned from two boys who were about one thousand yards from the scene at the time of the accident, that Mr. Jackson wag pinned inside the car when they found and rescued him. They did not know how the wreck 00~ curred. . Mr. Jackson was the only occu pant of the car, a coach type ve hicle. He was enroute to Athens as the car went off the hifhway and over an embankment. It was about 7:45 o’clock when the wreck occurred, according to the patrol report. Mr. Jackson was traveling over the Commerce highway and the car was about one and one-half miles from Center and four miles this side of Sommerce at the time of the accident. Mr. Jackson has been eonnected with the Athens Hardware Com pany for forty-two years as sales= man covering a territory coms= prising this- section of Georgia and part of South Carolina, He returned to his duties with his company several monthg ago after an extended serious illness. Firemen Busied By Seven Fires The Athens Fire Department, which answered seven calls to grass fires yesterday, renrinded Athenians that it is unlawful to burn trash or grass without first notifying the fire department, Firemen answered calls from 11:45 a. m. to 4:17 p. m. on Sunset Drive, East Broad street, Ag Drive, corner of Pope and Baxter street'st, : Lumpkin, corner of Suns ‘m Y anapkuﬁ&m street, and Stanton Way. f " ,! i A v { ® ) e ik N y el ‘ . ™“ > I .

Grady School of Journalism, ended here yesterday. p It was one of the best attended in history, and the array of speak-~ ers was among the top in the In stitute’s many years. The meeting began Wednesday*® and continued through yesterday, ending with a luncheon sponsored by The Atlan ta Constitution. The editors were entertained Friday night at a cos tume party given by the Savan nah Morning News-Evening Press. Chapel addresses were held each -morning of the meeting and forum discussions each afternoon. Correspondent Talks William Lawrence, New York Times correspondent of Korean and Russian experience, told his audience Saturday morning that the decision to send froops to Ko rea was “a very brave, wise and necessary decision,”” Mr. Lawrence added that, although it was a re versal of policy, this awakened the American people to the importance of developments. The Times correspondent urged that the free peoples of the world be built up so that “we will not have to rely on hired Hessians from Germany or Japan,” as a precaution of the future. Western Europe Mark Ethridge, publisher of the Louisville Courier-Journal, sald a Russian move into Yugoslavia will be the tip-off on further aggres sion in western Europe, The Kentucky newspaperman, who has made several trips to Europe and through the Balkan countrieg for the U, 8. State De partment, named April as the eri tical month for such a move. Ethridge pointed out that the Russians logically eould strike in one of three places—lran, the Bal kans, and Berlin. He added, how= ever, that the Russians don’t al ways strike logically. The losg of Yugoslavia to the Russians was a serious one to them, he said, It was even more serious than the loss of China to us, he added, Mr, Ethridge, on the whole, was optimistic about the world situa= tion and America’s policy. He said that he did not believe war is inevitable and that our foreign policy singe 1947 has been “both consistent and successful.” Farm Speaker Allen B. Kline, president of the (Continued on Page Two.) Questions Asked For Tax Forum Merchants and other interested citizens, all of whom will be af fected by the new tax laws which the legislature recently passed, were urged yesterday to submit specific questions which they may have about these tax matters prior to the Tax Forum, which is to be held Tuesday morning, at 11 o’clock in the auditorium at the Chamber of Commerce. These questions should he sent to Tax Forum, Chamber of Commerce, Athens, immediately in order that the business of the forum may be expedited as much ag possible, State Senator Robert G. Steph ens, jr., will direct the forum and undertake to explain the new tax mreasures, It is also expected that Senator Stephens will have with him Willlam Lester, who was chairman of the Tax Revision Committee, The new tax measures become effective April 1, and already many points connected with the new law have arisen to confuse merchants and others. The Tax ¥Forum is being held in an effort to clarify these points. C.MW.hFitzgerald, chairman of the Merchants Council; w - side at the meeting a#& %&ﬂg Senator Stephens.
