[ 't Marines Hold
[orfieth Year Of
Service In M
Service In May
By ROBERT M. KERR, SSGT,
USMC,
Publie Information Sergeant
Marine Corps Aviation enters its
40th year of service this month and
the anniversary was quietly ob
served in the United States but
Marine airmen in Korea will ce~
lebrate by continuing their de
vasting attacks on the Communists
while providing close air support
for ground units.
The Leathernecks date the birth
of their air arm from that Day in
1912, when First Lieutenant Alfred
A. Cunningham was designated
the first Marine Corps aviator and
Nayal aviator number five at the
Navy's aviation camp at Annapolis,
Maryland.
Among the first five Marine
aviators was Roy S. Geiger, who
in 1945 at Okinawa became the
Marine flyer to wear three stars,
and Francis T. Evans who was the
first man to loop and intention
aHy spin a seaplane, a feat con
sidered suicidal until he per
farmed it in 1917. |
Marine Corps aviation entered.
World War I, with five officers
and 30 enlisted men. At the end
of that conflict, there were 282
officers and 2180 enlisted men in
the flying service. They had served
in. France and performed anti
submarine patrol in the Azores.
.In the year after World Warl,
Marine aviators began the develop
ment of their primary mission.
Over the jungle of Haiti and Ni
caragua, they flew missions in
support of Marine ground troops
fighting guerillas and bandits.
Major General Christian F. Schilt,
won the Medal of honor for eva
cuatingfiyounded under fire.
The Marine Corps pioneered the
development of amphibious war
fare, and, realizing that aviation
would be an important factor in
successfully executing amphibious
leadings on hostile beaches, Ma
rines avlatars supporting the Fleet
Marine Forces became proficient
in the techniques of close air sup
port.
t outbreak of World War I, Ma
pe aviation was small, but it pro
ded the skilled nucleus around
which was built a strong strik
fne force of five aircraft wings
v'th practically every type of war
pione.
The Leatherneck airmen demon
strated their versatility even fur
ther by operating from Naval air
craft carriers and land bases with
egually devastating effect on the
Jz~nese.
{ *fter World War: 11, the air
cra’ wings remained in the regu
lar Marine Corps, Each wing con
tined only a few fighter squad
ro-s, transport squadrons and sup
p~ting elements.
~Yring this period, the Marine
Cons was also pioneering in heli
conter technioues, and in parti
c'ar with hilicopter assault tac
ti»s. An experimental helicopter
s-uadron was commissioned at
Qr-ntico, Va., for this purnose.
\t the outbreak of hostilities in
Kn-ea, Marine aviation totaled
12900 men. When the First Pro
vis'onal Marine Brigade went to
¥avea, it was reinforced with a
Marine aircraft group of fghter
bembers,
By the time of the Inchon land- |
ir~ in September 1950, an aircraft‘
wing including helicopters as well
as modern fighting planes andi
transvorts was in Korea support- '
ing First Marine Division and oth- !
¥r United Nations forces. '

Airmen Report
BY WILLIAM C. BARNARD
(For Hal Boyle)
SOMEWHERE IN KOREA —
(AP) — Some guys are stumped
by a camel’'s humps. They say
there isn't any such critter in the
Korea war. But the Air Force dis
agrees.
Cross our hearts and hope to
' die, we've seen ’em and even
counted the humps(two), the pilots
report. Navy fighter pilot recent
ly backed up the Air Force’s ar
gument.
The navy fliers reported they
picked off two camels near Hung
nam, on the east coast of North
Korea. 1t was another rebuff for
the skeptics who have been argu
ing since December that the fly
boys are merely too eager, that
they mistake bundles on other
animalg for camel humps.
Sly General
One infantry general even cast
a sly wink at the sky and com
mented: “I wish the Air Force
would send me a camel—l've al
ways wanted one as a pet.”
But whether you believe in
camels or not, the truth remains
they are the most fascinating tar
gets of the U. S. Fifth Air Force.
They easily outrank oxen, oxcarts
and bicycles.
The pilot who returns to base
and says, “I got me a camel to
day,” instantly wins the attention
of the briefing officer.
“Yeah?” says the briefing office.
“How many humps?”
“Two,” says the pilot. “I count
ed them.’
It would be a rare thing, indeed
if the airmen spotted a one-hump
camel being used by the Reds in
Korea. Old one-humper is com=
mon to North Africa, not Asia.
No Camels
Allied ground forces have never
found a camel or a camel’s car=-
cass. But there is nothing signifi
cant about that because Allied
ground forces are not operating as
far north as the airmen.
The Air Force first reported
spotting camels Dec. 9. Lt. Nor
man Burhner of Des Moines, la.,
leading a flight of F-80 jets,
strafed a Red convoy northeast of
Pyongyang and reported knocking
off eight camels.
Since that time airmen have re
ported swooping down on many
camels in various Red supply ar
teries of North Korea. Some of the
ungainly beasts were seen hauling
artillery pieces —the Air Force
insisted.
~ But the infontry still isn’t con
vinced,

'whether they were downed by
‘air or ground fire,
- The Pyongyang radio said four
Allied Grumnran fighters were
shot down over Hamhung on the
east coast. There was no such
report from U. N, sources.
American seaborne air bases
were augmented by the arrival of
the big U. S. carrier Bon Homme
Richard. She sent her fighters
over Korea Thursday for the first
time. Pilots reported excellest
results in hitting Red-held ridges
near Hwachon.
Red China came out with a
frank admission that Commmunist
troops need more and better sup
plies. Peiping radio quoted a re
turning Communist delegation as
saying Red troops need “more
planes, tanks, guns, antiaircraft
guns, antitank guns, trucks,” food
and “all kinds of modern medi
cines.”
Spring Rains
Red troops were helped by
spring rains. Korea’s poor roads
were difficult for U. N. armored
and motorized forces to navigate.
Streams were swollen. Bridges
were washed out. Troops were
soaked. Supplying them was a
major problem for both sides. An
air drop had to be mrade to Amer
ican troops pounding at Yanggu
through mud, sometimes knee
deep.
AP Correspondent Jim Becker,
traveling with doughboys making
this slow advance, reported rain
storms “turned the whole front
into a soggy, sloppy mass of brown
slime that covered the tops of
combat boots.
“Poncho-clad troops slogged up
muddy hill slopes into the face of
mortar and small arms barrages to
hack out a foot-by-foot advance.”
At tinres the Americans had to
cut North Koreans out of their
foxholes with bayonets. The Gls
captured two key hills northeast
of Yanggu.
No progress was reported for
other Allied units trying to hack
their way north of Inje between
hills infested with Communists.
Censorship obscured precise
positions of opposing forces fight
ing see-saw battles across the cen
tral front, eat and southeast of
Yonchon.

“SHADY LADY’—Charlita, a.
Latin movie actress with a Bos=l
ton accent, is worried about’
playing too many “bad girl”
roles in Hollywood. Her Portu~«
guese parents, she says, ares
about to disown her because of it.
Secretary
(Continued From Page One)
and Admiral Forerst P. Sherman
of the Navy,
Acheson is marked as a major
target for Republicans who al
ready have demanded that he re
sign or be dismissed—a demand
both he and President Truman
have ignored.
Senator McCarthy (R.-Wis.),
chief Acheson critic in Congress,
said he had supplied committee
members material for questions.
~ Senator Bridges (R.-N.H.) told
reporters he was primred to probe
not only the over-all objectives of
administration policies but what
he called the State Department’s
“yarying positions” on Far Eastern
trouble spots.
Acheson’s part in the June 25,
1950 Blair House Conference that
i preceded U. S. military interven
tion in Xorea and his part in White
House conferences preceding the
firing of MacArthur will come
under scrutiny, '
! President Truman said the Sec
retary of State warned that the
dismissal of MacArthur would stir
up a political fuss, but concurred
lin the decision.
i Green Views
Senator Green (D.-R.1.), a
member of the inquiry committee,
predicted the Republicans weuld
have “very great difficulty pin
ning any blame” on Acheson for
MacArthur’s removal.
“T think the record so far shows
the Secretary of State figured to
a very little extent in this mat
i ter,” Green said.
He added that so far as he is
concerned, there is no basis for
any contention Acheson is mainly
responsible for any errors in this
country’s Far Eastern policy.
“I think we are very fortunate
in having such an exceptionally
able man as Secretary of State,”
Green said, adding:
“He has nmrade some mistakes.
Who doesn’t? But I think it is a
fine tribute to him there have
been so few mistakes.”
Senator Morse
However, Senator Morse (R.-
Ore.), who has supported the ad
ministration’s limited-war policy
in Korea against MacArthur’s pro
posals to carry the fight to the
Chinese Reds, said he thinks Ache
son should resign.
“But not for the same reasons
as some of my Republican col
leagues,” Morse said.
“I think Secretary Acheson
should resign because of the seri
ous mistakes in judgment made in
Asia and China by the adminis
tration and because in a period of
crisis we should not have a Sec
retary of State who is unable to
cooperate with Congress and en
joy the confidence of the public.”

Price War Rages
In Retail Stores
0f New York City
NEW YORK, June I—(AP)-
Shopping armies are marching
merrily on Macy's and. Gimbel’s
enjoying a price war which threat
ens to engulf all city retailers,
“Armed with dollars, which they
brandish like flaming green
swords, women have been storm
ing the counters of the two big
stores snapping up former price
controlled items at lower and low=
er markdowns. In this battle of
the bargains, mere man- doesn’t
have a chance.
The price-cutting tussle grew
out of a U, S. Supreme Court de
cision 11 days ago ruling that
stores which do not sign fair-trade
agreements need not observe re
tail prices set by manufacturers.
Macy’s started the price-cut
putsch on Tuesday. A block away
at Gimbel’s, management said no
body would undersell them.
With an enforced truce during
the Memorial Day closing, the buy-~
ing wave yesterday battered huge
holes in merchandise prices.
Shoppers Swarm
Shoppers swarmed through the
store aisles like invading locusts.
Many store personnel took to
wearing boutionnieres so they
could tell each other from the cus=
tomers.
One panting woman shopper
nutshelled the thoughts of many
when she said: “It’s good for us
and good for business, because
they’ll unload a lot of merchandise
that’s been sitting around the
shelves.”
Comparison shoppers s?uttled
furiously between Gimbel’s and
Macy’s, remarxably keeping re
peated price cuts at both stores
within a few cents of each other.
Price tags took a beating, hour
by hour, and by closing time last
night some items were marked
down by more than 40 per cent.
Thursday closing hour in many
“city stores is 8 p. m. (EST).
The central buying front was at
Gimbel’s and Macy'’s, but other big
stores in New York and Brooklyn
hurriendly sliced their prices.
“Little Fellow”
Even the retail “little fellow”
entered the fracas. One Bronx
storeowner displayed screaming
signs—*“price war, all prices cut.”
Here’'s how some price-fixed
merchandise fared in yesterday’s
price retreat:
Lewyt vacuum cleaner, $89.95
to $62.39; mixmaster, $46.50 to
$29.64; toastmaster, $23 to $14.72;
springweave men’'s suit, $49.50 to
$30.17; Palm Beach suif, $29.95 to
$19.38; best seller novel (James
- Jones’ “From Here to Eternity”),
' $4.95 to $2.49.
About 98 per cent of the buyers
were women, used to the crush
of bargain buying.
~ Muttered one man in Macy’s, as
he sidestepped female frontal as
sault on a housewares counter—
“l wouldn’t last 10 minutes in that
mess.”
One trade guess is that prices
will level off at from 8 to 15 per
I cent below the former price-fixed
levels, e

For $270,000
GUYAHOGA FALLS, O. —
(NEA) — If James N. Gape can’t
decide whether to take the $270,-
000 English estate willed him by
his cousin, the late Mrs. Sibyl Ma
rion 'Gape, it isn’t because there
aren’t enough kibitzers helping
him.
Gape, 46, a valve salesman and
father of two children, would
have taken the Inheritance months
ago except for a slight gimmick
in the will. His cousin specified
that Gape must move to England
permanently and assume his place
as lord of Caxton Manor, or for
feit any claim to the estate, which
includes two fine country houses
and three farms.
Gape has until June 30 to make
up his mind, and right now f{t
isn’t any further made up than it
was last January when he learn=
ed of his cousin’s death. Mrs.
Gape is as much on the fence as
her husband. She has serious res
ervations about raising her young
family in Socailist and austere
Britain.
Not so the many kibitzers who
have taken an interest in the case
after reading about it in their
newspapers. They know what the
Gapes ought to do, and they tell
them so in dozens of letters snd
post cards. So far, the overall
tally on take-it-or-leave-it 1s
about 50-50.
* x *
The Gapes read with great In
terest a mnewspaper story by
NEA’s London correspondent,
Robert L. Beard, in which he out
lined a British tax expert’s an
alysis of how taxes would whit=
tle down the estate from its $270,-
000 value to a possible $24000 an~-
nual income. . -
However, Gape pointed out, so
many intangibles are involved and
so many different courses for set
tlement of inheritance taxes are
open that it is almost impossible
to reduce to actual dollars and
cents the estate that would be left
after taxes.
No such complications bother
some letter-writers who see op
portunity in a partnership with
the Gapes in the inheritance. One
English couple offered to collect
on the will and ‘bring the pro
ceeds to Ohio to split them.” (“We
could say we were second cousins
of the deceased.”)
Another suggests the Gapes
might collect on the will them
selves and “move to Jamaica or
somewhere.”
® * 8
A London lady wants to know
if she might rent two rooms in
Caxton Manor for her son who'll
go to Cambridge this fall. But,
Gapes would ; become house
hunters themselves if they should
accept the inheritance.
“We couldn’t afford to live in
Caxton Manor,” says Gape rue
fully.
Some kibitzers just offer short
and snappy advice. A salesman
from New Haven, Conn., wrote
Gape: “Don’t go.” An anonymous
correspondent clipped a picture of
the Gape family looking over
their near suburban home, Across
the house itself was written neat
ly, “Keep this.” |
A woman in San Francisco
thought Mrs. Gapes needed en
couragement. She wrote: “You
look much more doubtful than
your husband. . . Go on, take a
chance. I'm telling you.”
Another California woman
thought she and her husband were
well qualified to take over the
estate. “We both like tea,” she ex~-
plained.
Most of these writing the Gapes
obviously fail to appreciate the
iron-clad move-to-England pro
vision that Mrs. Sibyl Gape wrote
into her will. The Gapes do, and
the necessity of uprooting their
family from a comfortable home
and job in Ohio looms as the big
gest barrier to their taking the
inheritance.
On the other hand, the family
tradition—the estate has been in
the Gape family for 500 years—
compels them to ponder their de
cision seriously .
