Washington Calling— Price Increases Wipe Out 750 Of 4500 Planes

Armed Services Reeling, Truman Urged to Extend New Controls

By The Scripps-Howard Newspapers * WASHINGTON, Sept. 23—U. 8. has already lost 750 of the 4500 fighter planes called for in emergency

appropriation bill.

: Price increases destroyed them-—faster than enemy action or sabotage have done it. Funds Armed Services

provided the money.

programmed for them shrank that much before Congress

Inflation also has caused equally great losses of tanks, naval vessels, and foot soldiers. Armed Services are reeling from this quick erosion of their plans. Pressure on President Truman to apply price controls quickly is growing within administration. The $18 billion provided in appropriation bills for military

purchases will buy only $16.5 billion worth of goods today. Before it is spent it may buy even less.

For instance: Crude rubber has jumped 161 per cent since April. Lead is up 33 per cent; steel scrap 52 per cent: fuel oil

B4 per cent.

Wool, cotton and foods—all have to be figured In cost of putting an army in the field—cost twice as much, in many cases,

For next year, Pentagon has

raised estimate by $5 billion in:

the past two weeks; talks of much greater increases.

Treasury says $7 billion In

. tax Increase Sen. Walter George (D. Ga.) talks for ' mext year is “way low;” that the tax bill must be much larger. Budgeters shudder at the possibility that prices will con~ tinue upward in next four months at present rate.

U.S. ‘Hands Off

WILL WE GET involved in Indo-China fighting? Chances are not as great as you may have feared. United Nations will be slow about intervening there, because India and some other independent nations in Asia regard Indo-Chinese fighting as a Nationalist uprising against French Colonialism.

It's true that Ho Chi Minh, leader of Viet Minh forces revolting against the French, is 8 Moscow-trained Communist; that he’s getting help from Chinese Communists; that Red Chinese have built a new to help supply him. But Nationalist circles in Asia regard him as a native George Washington. And Bao Dai, playboy emperor backed by the French and living on the French Riviera, is personally unpopular. United States has been supplying Bao Dal-French forces with arms and economic assistance, but attempt to get United Nations intervention might drive Premier Nehru of India all the way into the Moscow camp. We're likely to think

such a chance.

RUSSIANS ARE making big pitch, at General Assembly, to separate us from rest of United Nations nations, particularly to weaken our stand-

We're fighting back by talking of need for land reform in Far East, and by keeping door open for China Reds to get United Nations hearing on Formosa. Note: Dewey's choice of occasion for lambasting Russlans drew some criticism in United Nations éircles. Not good American ‘tradition to invite guests into your house and tell them oft. at dinner table, said one official, remarks were deliv: ered at New York City dinner for Assembly delegates.

Inchon Land Of Task Forces That Can

Makes Pacific

Easier to Police By GORDON CUMMING Compiled from the Wire Services Lessons for the free world are pouring out of the Korean war by the dozen. And the United Nations no doubt was taking stock today of the amphibious landing by the U. 8. Marines. at Inchon. One of the great advantages of a landing on the Inchon pattern lies in its speed. The personnel and equipment of one or two divisions is set ashore in a matter of hours. The empty

_ craft reassemble and in sur-

prisingly short order are ready for another venture. In the first great task force landing at Kwajalein Atoll in January, 1944, the job was completed in less than a week. Portions of the assault troops were brought back to the ships and a few days later with reinforcements, captured Eniwetok Atoll, the Marshall Islands were made secure in less than a month. The lessons learned in Korea are all too obvious. | The United Natiors shotld have at its call.several such task forces prepared to strike at any critical shore in Asia following a quick survey by a trouble-shooting commission. The knowledge that aggression could be met swiftly and surely would deter any aggressor, even Russia. Different in Europe The combined naval, air and army task force is the answer in the Pacific. But for Europe the defense must be placed upon a land force great enough to discourage Communist adventures. While the western Big Three and North Atlantic foreign ministers, meeting in New York, did not come straight out with their plans for a European army little

doubt exists as to their intentions. What the ministers were

aiming at and what eventually will emerge from these meetings is a European army under a unified command with the right to act instantly in case of aggression, without reference to the slow working of parliamentary permissions after the act. .. This involves the sovereignty of every nation taking part in the formation of’ the European army. Reluctance on the part of the Europeans to delegate this authority to the high command of a European army is plain. But under the pressure of events in Korea it is slowly breaking down. * Peace Fades Out

A revolutionary change has

* taken place in the attitudes of

the free nations since the end of June." Added to the Korean lesson are the ominous moves being

made on the frontier of Indo-

China. This threat has put down any unwarranted hope that a success in Korea might end the Communist drive. In some European quarters the vision of an interim of peace had begun to take shape. That vision died almost before it was born. Costly though their main-

tenance may be, the combined

task forces now assembled in the Pacific should be kept in operation indefinitely and should be augmented with others to “be constantly on guard at strategic points. In addition, the free nations now must move as rapidly as possible toward the defense of Europe by the creation of an army adequate to close the gap between the West and the vast power on the other side of the Iron Curtain, .

Big Three

FOREIGN and defense min-

insters of the Big Three broke up their talks yesterday after apparently postponing the question of rearming German troops for the defense of Western Europe. As the two-day meeting came to an end, ministers of Great Britain, France and the United States issued a communique whose silence on the German rearming question was more

Foreign Legionnaires of France and North African Goums prowl an Indo-China stream on the look for Communist guerrillas. Fighting on a major scale flared on the six-year-old war this past week when American Marines made their startling amphibious landing at Inchon, Korea. The outburst led to the belief that the Reds of the world revolution, as they call it, were ready to counterbalance reverses with new attacks on

far flung fronts. words European defense. The communique made no mention of rearming the West Germans, which was known: to be the main issue. Informed sources said there were two reasons—French Foreign Mininster Robert Schuman and French Defense Minister Jules Moch. Both were said to have stood firmly against any idea of immediately rearming their country’s recent enemy, The French thought they had good reasons. Fear German Army They feared a German national army might spring from such forces to threaten France later. They also believed that concentrating on German rearmament would slow up general defense plans of the 12 Atlantic Pact nations. The postponement came as no surprise. U, 8. Secretary of State Dean Acheson had been expected to defer to the French ministers rather than run the risk of forcing a French cabinet crisis. Such a cabinet shakeup was a strong possibility if the French ministers should agree to building up German strength walle France is militarily weak,

United Nations

THREE more nations gave qualified support yesterday to Secretary of State Dean Acheson’s revolutionary plan for creating veto-free United Nations machinery to bar any new ‘Communist aggression. Chilean, Belgian and Dutch delegates to the General Assmbiy indicated, in varying measure, that they could be. counted on to vote for at least major parts of the Acheson plan. : Chilean delegate Dr. Hernan Santa Cruz went further and put before the 59-nation body the four-point Proposal of Chilean President Gabriel Gonzalez Videl. for a broadscale anti-Communist pact that would mobilize the West's military and economic strength to resist Red aggression. Hardly a Surprise Resumption of the General debate at the Assembly's first Saturday session was held up for 4 time by another Soviet attempt to unseat the Chinese Nationalists, . There was no surprise when Soviet Delegate Jacob A. Malik made the move in connection with Assembly consideration of the credentials committee report. His proposal to tag an “invalid” label on the Nationalist credentials was thrown out 41 to 7 (the Soviet block, Yugoslavia and India) with 3 abstentions. The assembly then adopted

the committee report in toto, 43 to 5, the Soviet bloc dissenting and Yugoslavia abstaining.

MacArthur undertook Korean aggression motivated by megolomania and the seeking of self glory and undertook the Inchon landing because the Koreans were push. ing back the Americans continuously in the south. The Literary Gazette predicted, “there need not be any doubt when lawyers before the court on war crimes try to save MacArthur from the gal: lows, pleading his insanity, nations will produce terrible photographs and MacArthur's cynical utterances and declare ‘disregard the lawyer's pleas

French Army officers charged that the rebels who overran Donghke after a vicious three day asgult were trained and armed in Communist China. Military sources said French Foreign Legionnaires and tough, bearded North African Goums, had advanced to Luongphal Pass overlooking the clay-walled fortress, But the going was slow. Communist troops clug tenaclously to the brushwood jungles and overhanging rocks which tower over the hollow of Donghke.
