"The President's position is completely inconsistent. He justified an active move against Korean aggression as 8 means of preventing World War III.
"In the second half his speech he claims World War III is prevented by timid war against Communist China, and maintaining a maginot line defense against an aggressor which has already accomplished half his purpose. "He justifies two completely inconsistent courses as means of preventnig World War III. I don't suppose there has ever been a more inconsistent justification for vital moves in foreign policy. "The truth is we misjudged the power of the United Nations; we misjudged the intentions the Chinese Communists and now we are in a situation to which there is no completely satisfactory Taft said "the firing of Gen. MacArthur has led the world to believe that we are now looking in the direction of appeasement." The Ohio Republican said three policies are under consideration for Korea.
He described them as: 1. "A more active battle against Red china." 2. President Truman's "Maginot Line" policy enunciated in last night's radio-television speech. 3. "An end to the war by appeasement." first," Taft his "Gen.
MacArthur, favored, the determination to bring his views to the American people was brought about far more by his fear- -and his justified fear- of the adoption of plan No. 3." Referring to Secretary of State Acheson, Taft said: "I think he (MacArthur) spoke out, endangering his own position, REX R.

The products range from farm machinery and locomotives to clocks and tin cans. 31 filing. industries These were included expassenger cars, radio and television, advertising signs and children's toys. Fleischmann said the lists are "general and tentative." They do not necessarily mean that all industries on the first list will get CMP allocations and the rest will not, he said, for this decision won't be made until next month. Neither does the CMP decision necessarily cars or Washington machines, he said.
It means that military and defensesupporting industries like railroads, petroleum and electric power will be taken care of first. Then others will get their share. Fleischmann forecast a "substantial balance" for non-defense uses. Signs of Strain For defense contractors, the CMP will supplement the present I priorities to a large extent. The priority system already shows signs of strain; too plants need the same product, in a few cases, so the priorities conflict.
The major difference between the new CMP and that of World War II is this: All industries which stayed in business in the war got metal through CMP, but many went out of business or converted to munitions work. Today's limited defense program requires no such overall control, NPA has decided, so civilian producers will have relative freedom to buy what they can find. This is how CMP will work: When the companies have reported their estimates of needed steel, aluminum and copper, the will be totaled up in Washington. Each industry will be represented by a -a Federal agency having jurisdiction over it. Presumably NPA will represent most manufacturing industries, the Interior Department will speak for fuel, power and oil; the air force for planes, the army for tanks, and so on.
Total Estimates The claimants will take their total estimates to a "requirements committee" set up in the Defense Production Administration. The tonnages will be matched up against the total supply of the metals. Then the allocations will be made. If the claimants, as a group, demand so much that the civilian economy would be too severely squeezed, their demands will be pared down. The Interior Department's petroleum administration, for instance, may get less steel for pipe than it thinks the oil industry needs.
But it will take amount it gets and then, in turn, allocate among the oil companies. Each concern then will get an authorized production schedule to obtain and use the three controlled materials, plus a priority to get other, materials needed. three materials are allocated, because NPA assumes that the of steel, copper and amount aluminum being used is an automatic regulator on the amount of alloys, plastics, chemicals and other materials being chewed up. Allocation Job NPA will leave it to industry to do much of the allocation job. A contractor making tanks, for example, will get a full allocation for a -year.
From this he will allot to his sub-contractors who make parts. However, as in World War IL, it there will be a list of products, which embraces machinery and parts are used in both civilian and defense such as electric motors bearings. The producers will get their allotments direct from NPA. Once defense demands are totaled up, NPA will know- -for the first time- exactly is left for how much civilian goods. It then can regulate the rate of civilian usage now by the type of percentage cuts employed.
The advantage of CMP over priority system was phrased by Fleischmann as follows: A priority is a qualifies. "hunting license. It merely the holder to buy terials if he can find them. CMP. maon the other hand, is "a cashier's check on the known supply." BUS FARES IN ATLANTA ARE INCREASED TO 15C.

SAVINGS BONDS ENGLAND PONDERS ACTION ON STONE Long-Missing Relic in Hands of Glasgow Police- -Scots Will Protest Return GLASGOW, Scotland, April 12 (P) Britain's government and police juggled the case of the purloined coronation stone like a hot potato today while authorities tried to decide their 1 next move. The long-missing historic relic, which was turned over to the custodian of Arbroath Abbey by three men yesterday, was to police headquarters here by truck in the night.
It was positively identified by experts from London today. Two large-sized problems remained. One was whether to court an outburst of Scottish indignation by removing the sandstone slab immediately to London. The other was whether to try to arrest and prosecute, the persons who stole the stone from Westminster Abbey early Christmas morning. Both questions were brought up in the House of Commons.
ing, Home Secretary Chuter Ede refused to say when and how the stone would be But he hinted it certainly be removeduia: turned to London by saying it was customary to move stolen property police of the area from which it was stolen. Prosecution Studied The question of prosecution, he said, is in the hands of Sir Hartley Shawcross. If Shawcross has made up his mind, he isn't telling about it. One of the thoughts that probably mind has crossed Sir is that Scottish nationalists who took the stone from Westminister Abbey might make a circus of 8 a trial by declaring the stone belonged in Scotland in the first place and the thief if any, was King Edward I of England, who took it to London in 1306. London was promised an interesting end by Miss Wendy Wood, 57-year-old leader of the militant Scottish Patriots movement.
Standing in the rain outside the police headquarters, she told reporters she was leaving for London, where Scotland plays England Saturday in an international soccer match. "I don't know yet what we will said, "but there will be 30,000 Scots there for the football match and we ought to be able to think of something." MRS. YOUNG QUITS WHITE HOUSE JOB From Page One out of pique over Republican disclosure she had been let out. When Short said today Mrs. Young had resigned, he was asked why it hadn't been announced earlier since he had been asked almost daily, until recently, about her status.
He said "It is not customary to announce the departure of members of the clerical staff." Mrs. Young's employment with the President dates back to time he was a senator from Missouri. The Youngs, too, came from Missouri. Husband Merl started out in Washington as a Government messenger, later got an RFC jeb, helped Vice-President Barkley campaign in 1948 and is now in the insurance business. For the benefit of the RFC investigating committee, he filed a sworn statement March 30 showing his assets amounted to 491.66 and his debts to $149,792.66 He listed among his debts a note for $8,540 to Rosenbaum for the coat.
Rosenbaum had testified he got the coat at a $1,000 discount. The disclosure that Mrs. Young has left the White House capped Senate debate today on the question of reorganizing the RFC. Senators Robertson Va.) and Kem Mo.) argued against Mr. Truman's plan to replace the five-man RFC board with a single administrator.
They both want the plan blocked as a first step toward putting the RFC out of business completely. "The RFC should be abolishednot Kem said. "The people with be satisfied with nothing less. They are fed up with political favoritism influence peddling fees- -natural royal pastel mink coats." Deaths BYRNE REX 63, died at his restdence, 616 Signal Mountain Boulevard. Signal Mountain.

The Republican party leader called MacArthur's ouster "a blow to every man and every country in the Far East that favored an aggressive attitude toward the spread of Communism." "It is an encouragement to every Communist in the Far East and throughout the world," he continued. "It has caused a tragic weakening of our moral position." Taft said the policy of a more active war with China meant assistance to Chinese Nationalists to land on the mainland plus the bombing of military targets in Manchuria and China. "Neither of these would mean a general war in China," he added.
He was critical of the United Nations' failure to take a strong attitude when Red China intervened in the Korean war. they have, in fact, tried to hamper any punishment of the aggressor," Taft declared, "or even a retaking of the land which the aggressor has seized. "In this treatment of Communist China the United Nations has abandoned every ideal for which it established." Taft pointed out that as a Republican leader in Congress he opposed President Truman's intervention in Korea with American soldiers. "It would be hard," he went "to deliberately invent a more disastrous series of policy moves than this Administration adopted during the past 18 months in the Far East. "Far from preventing World War III, it has involved us in a major war which has no purpose whatsoever; and it has encouraged an aggression which makes larger war far more likely in the future."

Only state witness called was Capt. Sherman Dyer of the county patrol. He was disqualified as a witness, his evidence being immaterial.
The defense put on no proof, but Wood proceeded directly to argue the case for Baker, Woolsey used about five minutes in argument for the state.

Still the officers did not arrest Baker.
They claimed the youth's identification was not certain enough, Smith and Woolsey asked them one "Didn't of you them know asked Clyde Hudson. BaHudson admitted that he had known the reputed killer (four times acquitted of murder) for "three or four years." Why didn't they arrest him, the officers were asked. Ables said they doubted their legal right to place a pistol-carrying charge against Baker since the pistol was locked in the glove compartment of the car. "I'm glad we don't have officers like that here," Smith commented Wednesday. referred to Hudson in argument to the jury yesterday.
"I'm glad he's not sheriff of Hamilton County," the prosecutor told the jury. Attorney Gus Wood, defending Baker, was heard to whisper incredulously: "He's attacking his own witness."

FIRE COMPANY TO OPEN HERE From Page One of the stock of the new fire company. President Johnson explained that arrangements have been made between the two companies for the fire company to utilize the home facilities, branch office facilities as well as certain clerical personnel and the entire field organization of the life and accident company.
"This field organization covers practically every city and community in the seven states which the life company does Johnson explained. "For that reason a great opportunity exists to provide fire protection along with life, health and accident insurance provided by the life companyie will be reaching that large field of persons who have become accustomed to and prefer the weekly payment plan for their insurance protection. This field 1 is not being reached by the annual, three-year or a premium fire company representative. Short Periods "There are many persons in this field who do not have fire protection coverage on their homes and household furnishings because they have not been contacted by a representative of a weekly premium company and they prefer to make their premium payments in this manner rather than for a longer period of time." Johnson said that some idea of the weekly premium insurance that is being carried obtained from the fact that Interstate Life alone has over 1,000,000 holders of such policies. In Tennessee it has around 375,000 weekly premium Interstate policyholders, showing the interest in the plan.
The fire company plans to ate in the same states in which the operlife company operates. They are Alabama, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Arkansas, Tennessee and Mississippi. The life company has a field organization of about 1,200. TREASON CHARGED BY SEN. M'CARTHY From Page One less the American people force a change, the death warrant of western civilization by a President who didn't know what he was doing.
He is surrounded by the Jessups, the Achesons, the old Hiss crowd. These men have no hypnotic influence; most of the tragic things are done at 1:30 and 2 o'clock in the morning when they've had time to get the President cheerful." In Washington, a reporter asked McCarthy if he was contending Mr. Truman acted under the influence of liquor. "No, I do not mean that," Mc-1 Carthy said. "I simply mean that he always seems to wait until late at night to issue orders and write letters.
The country would be better off if he didn't do those things at night." McCarthy called the President "just as unimportant and unintelligent little fellow who is pulled on the strings of those around him." He said he was talking about "the old Acheson-Hiss crowd." McCarthy had been quoted as applying an epithet to Mr. Truman in saying a that Milwaukee terview last night President should be impeached. "I don't remember calling him that kind of a name," McCarthy declared. Reps. Sutton Tenn.) and Roosevelt N.
announced they had sent this telegram to McCarthy: "The newstickers today quoted you as stating the following about the President to Rebert Fleming, Milwaukee Journal reporter: The should be impeached "If you are quoted correctly we believe your remarks to be contemptible and beneath the dignity of a United States senator. In all fairneas we hope that you will confirm, deny or explain this quotation by collect wire immediately." McCarthy, asked about the Sutton-Roosevelt wire, said he hadn't seen it. His office has been flooded with telegrams since the dismissal of MacArthur and there are six or seven thousand he hasn't opened, McCarthy added. Told what Roosevelt and Sutton said they had telegraphed him, McCarthy said he had no comment. PETTYJOHN-MILLARD Route 2.

DANGER OF WAR LAID TO TRUMAN From Page One the brink of another world war" -a land war with Russia that Wherry said would bring "wanton destruction" of untold American lives.
Wherry, the Senate's Republican leader, gave his party's answer to last night's speech in which the President said he fired MacArthur for policies that threatened to start World War III. This statement, Wherry declared, "is resented by every thinking American familiar with the glorious record of this great statesman, soldier, patriot." "Compare the monumental record of Gen. MacArthur with that of his accusers," the Nebraskan cried, record decay, creed, corruption, and confusion of these weaklings in the Truman Administration. "The obvious truth is that the ship of state is floundering in a whirlpool of mink coats, paternalism, RFC influence loans, crooked political machines in league with national organizations, class ar rayed against class, and new scandal the order of the day." Wherry said MacArthur "needs no defense. He will take care of that when he comes home." The Nebraskan out he had introduced a resolution inviting the deposed Far East commander to address joint meeting of Congress as soon as he returns to this country.
The Republicans are making every effort to secure adoption of the resolution, the senator said. His Day in Court "Gen. MacArthur is entitled to his day in court," he added. "The American people want to hear what Gen. MacArthur has to say, They are waiting for his words of wisdom." The Nebraskan said Mr.
Truman last night had made a "weak defense of his shabby treatment" of the general. "This leader of our victorious forces in the Pacific in World War II, this wounded hero of World War will return to his beloved country in triumph armed with the sword of experience, and a knowedge of economic, political and military conditions in the Far East unsurpassed by any living Wherry said. Wherry said the President had enunciated a new Korean policy. off his original venture into President now has written rea to defeat the North Koreans and restore freedom to the whole country," he said. "His new policy now is to show the North Koreans and Red China that they cannot drive us out.
There is not much comfort in this outlook. The new strategy means more an dmore re tear-stained pillows throughout our land." Defense Wherry Marshall, described Gen. Secretary Omar Af. Bradley and J. Lawton Collins as "foot soldiers by trade" and said they fail realize the vital role of air power in modern warfare.
They fail to realize, Wherry declared, that American bombers can strike at any part of Russia, just as the Red air force can hit at the United States within five and a half hours after leaving the Soviet Union.
