•. " o Marine Leader Warns Against Future Attack Warns Any Further Attacks Will Have Serious Consequence HONG KONG (INS)—The new U. S. marine corps commander in the Pacific said today that any further attacks on civilian planes by the Chinese Reds would have "the most serious consequences?’ Maj. Gen. Robert Pepper added on his arrival in Hong Kong, en route from Formosa to Manila, that such an attack would be met by suitable action on America’s part. The U. S. protested vigorously as "barbarous and lawlees" the shooting down of a British Skyhiaster airliner last week and the subsequent Red attack in, which American carrier-based planes hunting for possible survivors shot down two Communist Chinese fighters. One passenger died in the Skymaster attack and> nine others, including three Americans, are missing and presumed dead. Eight passengers and crewmen survived tse .ditching in the South China sea off Red-held Hainan Island. Radio Peiping commented on the U. S.-Chinese dog fight by quoting from the editorial In today’s edition of the Peiping newspaper People’s World. The editorial accused the U. S. of making the “accidental” shooting down at the Skymaster the pretext for “open provocation against China’’ and for increased military activity along the China coast. A formal note of protest by the Peiping government to the U. S. was announced Tuesday. It warned of the “consequences” of “aggression.’’ The U. S. state department brushed off the Peiping charges with “no comment.” As a result of the Red attacks. U. S. navy jets are escorting American planes—and any others that request protection — when they are in the danger zone. Meanwhile, the search for the missing passengers and crew members of the British-owned CathayPacific plane which ditched east of Hainan last week was still un-

(INS) — A solution to the gangland-style slaying of Albert L. Patterson was believed near today as residents of vice-ridden Phenix City came forward with information under the protection of martial law. ■ Acting attorney general Bernard Sykes, who launched his own investigation into the murder of the Democratic nominee for attorney general and anti-vice crusader after ousting town officials, declared: “The persons behind the killing are known. Now we need only more legal proof to back up our evidence, before placing it before the grand jury.” Sykes reported citizens are volunteering information so rapidly now that he has added “several more” agents to his field staff and placed it on a 24-hour basis. He said that residents had been reluctant to talk until Governor Gordon Persons ordered Alabama national guard units into Phenix Patterson, who won nomination on a promise to clean up vice and gambling in the city, was shot to death June 17, the day before he was to testify before the grand jury investigating fraud in the Democratic primary. |^U<W‘ L v 1 IMUI Admitted Dale Hutchinson, Petersburg, Mich.

(INS) Ituliana Harbor may Iweome a sub-, port of entry in northern Indiana for foreign imports. i The possibility developed after Harry Youse. federal customs collector in Indianapolis, said he considered it "inevitable” that a port of entry be established in the lower Lake Michigan region, in view of approval by the United States l of the St. Lawrence Seaway ■ project. ~~—’ ——- - , Youse indicated that the first city to erect suitable dock- facilities would be designated as the port of eniry. A new port would allow foreign shipments to land .ell-ger tn the Calumet area ‘h«n South Chicago, the newest present port. George Applegate, secretarymanager of the East Chicago Chamber of Commerce, maintained that Indiana Harbor, with its sweeping harbor and already existing U. S. waterway, should serve as a “natural” subport of entry for foreign' ships. He added that Indiana Harbor now handles industrial shipments totaling more than 15 million tons annually. A half-dozen steel companies and oil refineries use the facilities of the harbor and the canal. However, Applegate pointed out that large warehouses and rail and truck terminals would have to be built at the lake front. Mayor Walter M.
