RHEE ADDRESSES (C«»tl»w< From Page «>■«> .American supplies, and such heavy equipment as tanks, artillery and Jet aircraft, an attack against the powerfully-entrenched North. Koreans would end only in a smashing. bloody failure for the south. Diplomatic circles said this is the very reason Rhee is now asking for heavy war material to add support for his 20 trained and battle-proved divisions. Meanwhile, it was learned that during hie conference with" President Eisenhower Rhee submitted a request that the U. S. divert all waj* material intended for lodoChina to.his own country. It is considered doubtful that such a request will be honored, although a Korean official said there | are "indications" that more arms I aid will be forthcoming from the U. s. - EISENHOWER IN (CeattaueU Fl-oat Page Oae) that the Male department is "tired of being pushed around," also pressed- the Red regime to pay damages and to guard against any similar incidents in the future. The department's etatement was labeled a “most vigorous protest.” and called the attack on the British airship and the later battle in which American search planes had to shoot down two attacking Communist fighters a "barbarous and lawless” deed on the part of the Reds. „ The harshly-worded note eame shortly before the Soviet news agency Tass charged that the navy search planes were carrying out “a serious new provocation by the United- States in the Far East.” The Tags statement claimed that the U.S. utilized the shooting down of the British plane in the South China sea as an excuse for “s provocative attack aimed at main» talning a state of tension in the Far East.'” In Washington. Sen. Alexander Wiley (R-Wis.) foreign relations committee chairman, accused- the Reds of using the “big lie" technique once more. He commented: C'they admit shooting down the British plane and then- try to blame us tor their ruthless conduct.”

Think German Leader Being Brainwashed Communists Seek To Make Or. John * Propaganda Weapon WASHINGTON <INS) — A top government authority said today that It appears the Communists are brainwashing German intelligence expert Dr. Otto John in an effort to make him a new Soviet weapon in the propaganda war. The official said all information received by the U.S, thus far leads to the belief that John was lured into East German and did not go willingly. John, a top security official for the tree German government, vanished last week add later the East, Germaft Communist regime claimed Uud came over to them voluntarily. ■’y; The Washington source, in an interpretation of" the cloak-and-dagger mystery, noted; ’ 1. There have been various claims concerning John. Including an alleged broadcast of his voice, made by the East German ‘Comm unists. - 2. It seems significant, however, that at no time have they produced him either in a public meeting or at a news conference -- which would be a familiar and expected Red . technique if • 'he had actually gone over to the Communist side voluntarily. 3. It appears, instead, that John is being given the brainwashing treatment and 'that the Communists are hot yet ready to put him on display until he eventually knocklee under to the mental torture. John was an overnight visitor in Washington last June 7 and dined privately with central intelligence agency chief Allen Dulles. It was learned that the conversations at the CIA chiefs home Were concerned only with international Communism generally. The official source said that the German intelligence official was never filled in on U.S. operations and that “we have no worry in that regard.” John, however, did have personal information on German leaders, described as the same type of infortnatio* the FBI has pn people in the U. - S'." J In piecing together the story of the German official's disappearance, the authority reported that he received a telephone call to go to someone’s house in Berlin. Before doing so, according to the accredited report, he emptied bis pockets and took no documents or any kind of written holes y lth him. The message left behind was not, according to these sources, written by Tfr. John. . ‘ ' The border guard who saw John erode the frontier said be
