Laura Rutherford Chapter UDC
Observes Armed Forces Day
In the window of the W. A.
Capps Jewelry Company there is
an interesting assortment of arti
cles connected with the War Be
tween the States. On the College
Street side, just under the Con
federate flag, there is a large pic
ture of the President of the Con
federacy, Jefferson Davis, with
his cabinet. There is also the seal
of the Confederate States of Amer
ica, a picture of General Robert E.
Lee, and a gavel supposedly made
from the apple tree under” which
the surrender took place. Powder
horns, a canteen, a sword which
belonged to Lt. George Eberhart,
epulets from the uniform of Cap
tain William L. Johnson, grand
father of Mrs. W. A. Capps, and
small bills of Confederate money,
with four bonds, which carried an
eight percent interest rate. Of
great interest are the thirty-five
autographed photographs of con
federate soldiers and officers, a
recent gift to the Laura Ruther
ford Chapter from Mrs. W. A.
Caops.
At present the Daughters of the
Confederacy are interested ‘n edu
cational work, also the preserva
tion of memorials to our splendid
leaders. The memorial to General

In the parade on Armed Forces

sented by the appearance of an old
fashioned carriage of the early six

offered to be the driver for the

It is the aim of the United

the ideals of the past shall be used
as an incentive for worth while
accomplishments during this pre
sent day, and we feel that our two!
young ladies have shown this,
through their excellent achieve-1
ments,
distinguished guests.

eign Relations Committees little
changed in théir attitude toward
the conflicting programs of Presi
dent Truman ‘and MacArthur for
the far east.
Knowland Views
Senator Knowland (R-Calif.)
‘told a reporter he thinks “the ad
‘ministration’s contentions still re
‘main to be proved.”
. “So far as he went, Marshall
presented some facts that were
' not clearly known before but there
are lots of contradictions in. the
testimony,” Knowland said.
Sparkman said he thinks Mar
shall made it clear there isn’t too
wide an area of differences be
tween MacArthur and the admin
istration, but that the difference
is vital. 4
“MacArthur is proceeding on the
theory that Red China is a gov
ernment in its own right and can
make its own decisions,” the Ala
| bama senator said. “General Mar
| shall and the administration lead
ers believe that what Red China
does is dictated by the Kremlin.”
On the question of possible peace
feelers, Sparkman made it clear
he has no knowledge of any speci
[ sic move.
i But he said some members of
| the two committees are so im
pressed with Marshall's recital of
American success in decimating
the Communist troops that they
,believe the Reds will be forced
i to seek an early truce.
“We just have the feeling that
, the Chinese Reds can’t go on much
' Jonger under the losses they have
| been sustaining,” he said.

I'LL TAKE THE HIGH ROAD—There’s just no buts about it,;_

General,” today begins supplying
to the two committees the military
position of the chiefs of staff on
IMacArthur's proposals for- block
ading Red China, bombing Man
churian bases and using Chinese
Nationalist troops from Formosa.
The 8-year old five-star general
| faces tough gmestioning from Re
| publicans who contend that he
' opened himself to inquiries about
political—as well as military—
matters by a recent Chicago speech
endorsing Mr. Truman's limited
war plan for Korea. '
Although Marshall is a five
| star general too, he testified as
| civilian defense secretary and left
a lot of military questions for
‘ Bradley to answer on behalf of the
| joint chiefs.
The committees vote today on a
proposal by Senator NMorse (R
--} Ore.)—who questioned MacArthur
for some four hours—to limif
members to two 30-minute rounds
of questioning future witnesses. __
Marshall wound up seven days
of testimony yesterday by telling
the committees that so far as he
knows every responsible U. S,
military - leader—including Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower—favors the
President’s plan to fight a limited
war in Korea.
Generals Agree
This was in line with what some
senators said was the administra
tion’s strategy to bring the mili
tary leaders before the committees
and have them voice opposition—
one by one—to the MacArthur
proposals,
Administration senators said
they hope in this way to overcome
the tremendous impact they con
ceded MacArthur made on the
American people by his address to
Congress and subsequent testi
mony.
MacArthur told Congress it was
} his understanding his proposals
for blockading China, removal of
restrictions on air operations over
Manchuria and use of Chinese Na
tionalist troops “have been fully
shared in the past by practically
every military leader concerned
with the Korean campaign, includ
ing our own joint chiefs of staff,”
The deposed Pacific commander
stuck to that statement. Marshall
said these were only some of the
recommendations the joint chiefs
n.ade last Jan. 12, and that they
were to be carried out only if
United Nations troops were forced
out of Korea or into a last-stand
beachhead.

NEWS FROM THE
VETERANS CORNER
Here are authoritative answers
from the Veterans Administration
to three questions of interest to
former servicemen:
Q. Could I get a GI business
loan to help out my brother, who
is having a hard time making a go
of his restaurant? I am not con
nected in any way with the res
taurant,
A. No. You may not obtain a GI
business loan for such a purpose.
One of the provisiong of the law
is that you must play an active
part in the business for which you
need the loan.
Q. As a member of the National
Guard, I receive drill pay for short
periods of training each week. I
