‘Police Action’

Now a Crusade

By GORDON CUMMING Compiled from the Wire Services While Korea is being ravaged by war the free world might well speak up. Words of hope spoken to the people of Asia might enkindle their faith. Words, too, can be weapons of freedom. The war in Korea has changed from a local “police action” into a crusade with all the terrifying mechanisms of modern war, Russia armed the North Koreans and inspired them to invade the South. Only Russia has the power today to hait the war. To do so, Russia would have to order its Korean disciples to withdraw to the 38th Parallel. That seems now impossible, Unless Russia does intervene, the free nations have no alternative but to destroy the aggressors and with them much of North and South Korea with every weapon and with overwhelming force. Gathering this force together has been agonizingly slow to those who see the war only in terms of the wounded and the dead. But actually it has taken form in less time than expected. It required three years for the free nations to unite in World War 1 and two years in World War II. Today the free nations are spiritually united after five weeks of fighting in Korea and should be a coherent, integrated legion within another month with many flags besides those of Britain, the British Commonwealth, Turkey, Indonesia and the Philippines flying over the bulwarks of Pusan. All will send their forces into battle under their own and the United Nations standards. The blue and white emblem of the United Nations is the standard to which the cru-

faders now repair,

In leading this crusade of freedom, the United Nations will assure the Koreans and all other Asiatic peoples of the

right to live In peace and security under governments of their own choosing and without foreign interference. That ‘is the goal of the crusade and it is one that Soviet Russia cannot and will not offer its satellites. Russia can hold out only subservience to the state and to the dictates of Moscow. When the United Nations’ line has been shortened into a perimeter around the city of Pusan there will come an opportunity to state the purposes of the crusade and to ask the help of all who prize their freedom, A repetition of the Atlantic Charter with its terms applied to Korea and to all nations

The anniversary might well be used to restate the moral principles upon which the present conflict is to be waged.

The Red Propaganda Line— a Kremlin Tries to Terrorize Russians About U. S. Bugs

Broadcasts Half-Truths and Brazen Lies

About How ‘Wall St." Lives to War on Soviet By ERNIE HILL, Times Special Writer

LAKE SUCCESS,

N. Y., July 29—Soviet news and radio

agencies today charged that the United States is producing bacteriological warfare weapons and stockpiling atem bombs to at-

tack Russia.

An effort is being made to terrify the Russian people with fantastic propaganda charges that the United States also is pre-

paring to attack .the Boviet with “plague-carrying rats, poison fleas, Colorado beetles

. and other inhuman insects.”

All of this, the Moscow press and radio assert, is the work of “Wall Street” and its stooge Harry Truman. Thousands of words daily poured out claiming that the fighting in Korea is only preliminary to an American assault —against Communist China and Russia itself. Occasipnally ‘mixing halftruths with phenomenal lies, Moscow's propaganda machine sets up the promise that the United States plans and lives only to wage war against Russia, Marshal Tito in Yugoslavia already is murdering Albanians, Bulgars and Rumanians on instructions from Secretary of State Dean Acheson, Moscow says, . Pleck Up Broadcasts The several United Nations and U, 8, monitoring services pick up full broadcasts daily from behind the Iron Curtain. Over and over dosens of times daily the lie is repeated that John Foster Dulles, Republican adviser to the State Department, visited South Korea and instructed President Syngman Rhee to attack North Korea. . Pravda, Soviet party organ, reports that military produetion (what kind is not mentioned) has doubled and North Korea and

had failed and that 500,000 Americans have signed the Communist “Stockholm Peace" Pledge.” Comrade Zhukov broadcasts that the French are ‘‘rebuffing the insolent atom-mongers” and hundreds of peace partisans are going to jail in pros

tests against the American war. Tass, Soviet news agency,

says the United States is encircling Russia, the latest evi. dence being the construction of airfields and bases in Norway, Drag Franco In The home service program says that Franco of Spain Is inaugurating an industrialization program with U. 8. capital as another link to oppose the Soviets. This same program, written for home consumption states that “U. 8. ruling circles are failing to obtain wide support for their Korean adventure even at home. This can be seen in the failure of the campaign for recruiting volunteers.” The

United Nations

THE Western Powers were assured last night, after a series of secret strafegy meetings, that Russia will score no political or diplomatic victory in whatever she may attempt when she returns to the United Nations Security Council next Tuesday. The Council's western pows-ers-—the United States, Britain, France and Norway—met privately for the second consecutive day yesterday afternoon. The atmosphere was like that surrounding a war council, strictly secret. But it was known that the strategists were examining all angles connected with the Russian return and making certain that their counter-moves were concerted, As a result of these meetIngs, the West gained assur ance that if Chief Soviet Delegate Jacob A. Malik, who is returning to take his regular turn as council president, attempts to oust the Chinese Nationalists, over whose presence he walked out 29 weeks ago, he will be defeated.

Assure Orient “Of Self-Rule

If, as has been hinted in Communist quarters, he asks the Council to condemn the U. 8. on a charge of intervention in China as a result of President Truman's ordering the Tth Fleet to Formosa, a similar defeat awaits him. It was taken for granted that Mr. Malik will take advantage of his return to hurl a propaganda attack against the United States and her Western partners at every opportunity. Informed sources that Russia probably would propose that the United Nations order an immediate cease fire in Korea with the troops of both sides holding their current positions.

thought

Once ‘‘the hostilities have ceased, the Russian proposal would provide that the Se-

curity Council attempt mediation with Communist China as a member and with the North Koreans present to take part in the talks. Such a proposal was as certain of defeat.

Formosa

A FOREIGN office spokesman said yesterday that outcome of next week's United Nations Security Council meeting would determine whether the Korean conflict will flare into a world war. The spokesman denied reports that Nationalist Delegate F. Tsiang had been inan to. veto Soviet attempts .to seat the Chinese Communist delegation and said the issue is “much larger” than whether a majority or a vets applies, He indicated the UN meet ing will give the western democracies an opportunity to force Russia to face a showdown.

They don't want to make the same mistake again. ; «Many conservative Democrats will support the Baruch plan because it offers wage controls at same time as price controls—which wasn't the case last time, Republicans can put the program over. Now they wonder whether to take responsibility for even tighter controls than administration asks and for giving President Truman extraordinary - powers. Finally, signs that controls are popular outside Washington may mean administration reversal, too, and race to see which party can capture credit for them. Note: Price and wage freezes, even rollbacks, could be put in effect overnight, and machinery for enforcing them could be whipped together fast But rationing machinery would take time,

Surtvial of United Nations may be at stake, among other things. Crisis may come over Formosa. : We know Chinese Reds have large force massed for amphibious attack. If Formosa's the goal, U. 8.

And that may be only the first aggressive move, Only sure thing at this point: That next 30 days will be tense, dangerous,
