This picture of a North Korean tank, identified by a Pentagon official in Washington as a Russian-type T-34 probably mounting an 88-mm. gun, was published by the London Daily Worker yesterday with this caption: "The scene in liberated Seoul, capital of Korea, when the inhabitants turned out to give a warm welcome to the advance armored units of the People's Army." Russians Taking Active Part In Fighting, Yank Believes; "Big, Blond" Tankman Seen Russia Also Insists Upon Seats For North And Reds Of China. Lake Success, N. Aug. 4 (UP) Russia unfolded before the United Nations today a Korean ''peace" plan calling for an immediate cease-fire and withdrawal of Gen.

Douglas MacArthur'i UN forces from the biasing Asiatic peninsula. Jacob A. Malik, Soviet delegate, proposed that the Security Council Invite envoys of the North Korean invaders and the Chinese Communists to come here and take part the climactic Korean debate. The United States Immediately told the Council that the Soviet "peace" proposal had nothing to do with the buslnesi before It the American resolution to localise the Korean conflict and condemn the North Koreans for defying the UN' June 25 cease-fire and withdrawal decree. Warren R.

Austin, American delegate, reminded the Council that it had taken three days to decide on the business before it and demanded that Mr. Malik, as President, get on with it. Mr, Austin also opposed the move to bring Red Korean representatives here, saying the Council twice before had rejected such a move. FIFTH SESSION STARTLED. Mr.

Malik's double-barreled resolution came as a surprise as he opened the fifth straight Council meeting. It clashed sharply with the two main UN decisions previously taken by the Council on the Korean crisis. They were: (1) The resolution approved the day the Red invasion began by calling on the Invaders to ceasefire Immediately and pull back to the 38th Parallel. (Mr. Malik's resohi'Jes today.

aid nothing about withdrawal of the Invaders to the jump-off line.) (2) The historic resolution on June 27, calling on all UN members to send fighting aid to help the South Koreans repel the Red attack. (Mr. Malik's resolution called only for withdrawal of foreign troop meaning the five American divisions fighting desperately to hold a bridgehead In Korea's southeast corner and air and naval forces of other UN members aiding the hard-pressed defenders.) The debate was complicated further by a procedural wrangle over 4hm Vpat's Innintpnr that Mr. Ma County Communist Leader Listed Further Inquiry Eyed By Committee.

Washington, Aug. 4 (Special) The House of Representatives is expected to be asked next Thursday to vote contempt-of-Congress citations against four Clnclnna tians. The four are Frank Hashmall. 3459 Harvey Chairman of the Communist party In Hamilton County; Talmadge Ralcy, 103 Jackson Lockland, Business Agent of United Electrical Workers Local 766; Esther Tlce, 431 McDowell former UE organizer, and Dalvd H. Levison, 8786 N.

Broad-lawn Sllverton. In recent hearings before the House Un-American Activities Committee here, Raley and Miss Tlce were listed as members of the Communist party and Levison as the former acting leader of the party at Cincinnati. All four refused to answer numerous questions before the committee on grounds that to do so might tend to incriminate them. (See Warren Cartoon On Page 4.) The committee, which already has agreed on the need for legislation to curb Communists, Is ready to start closed-door sessions to one or more bills ready for action on the House floor. The sessions may last a week or more.

Before the committee are bills sponsored by three of its members Rep. John S. Wood, Democrat, Georgia, Chairman; Richard M. Nixon, Republican, California, and Francis E. Walter, Democrat, Pennsylvania.

The Nixon bill, among other things, would require the Communist Party to register with the Justice Department and provide a list of Its members. Representative Wood's bill would make It unlawful for any government employee to belong. to the Communist Party, Representative Walter would require all Com-munsts to register with the Justice Department aa agents of a foreign government. This, he says, would drive the Reds into the open. REVEALED BY MoCORMAC'K.

The committee already has voted to ask the House for contempt citations. Today Rep. John Mc-Cormack, Democrat, Massachusetts, majority leader, announced that the House would be asked to vote on contempt citations, Including these and others Thursday. Meanwhile the Un-American Activities Committee put over until next week further consideration of matters raised by the Cincinnati investigation. Chief of these how much of the testimony of Cecil D.

Scott, former FBI worker in the party, is to be made public. Mr. Scott testified for five days, July 24-29, before the committee in executive session. The committee held its only meeting this week yesterday, but devoted It solely to legislative matters. A meeting scheduled for today, was postponed when the House went into session at 10 a.

m. on the war controls bill. Representative Wood said the committee probably would meet Tuesday and that It might consider further steps In the Cincinnati Investigation. "I am anxious to dispose of the Cincinnati matter as soon as possible," be said. Westover Field, Aug.

4 (INS) A wounded American soldier declared today that he believes the Russians are fighting side by sldo with North Koreans. Pfc, Daniel Shnff stall, 20, Lancaster, one of 21 wounded flown to Westover from Tokyo via San Francisco, made the statement shortly after his arrival. He was wounded at the front with the 84th Infantry Regiment of the 24th Divl slon. He told newsmen: 'We were pulling out of Taejon when, we ran into a North Korean heavy tank, We let it have a 3.5 bazooka rocket where It did the most good. big, blond follow popped out of the turret In a hurry.

We got him fast and when we took a look at him we decided he was a Russian. "There are no big, blond Koreans." Private Shoffstall said he was attached to a 75mm recoil-less rifle Unit. Ha declared: "Believe me, those 75s aren't worth a hoot against those North Korean tnnks. Your shell bounce right off the armor. "We fought around Tacjnn until July 10 when we got orders to get out fast.

I was on the end of a truck heading South when a grenade fragment caught me on the left leg. "Those Red troops are really tough, but that S.5 bazooka does a real job on their tanks. Our troops are young and but they are not panicky. Thy are taking It pretty good." Pfc. Ralph Trap," 18, Caiawlssa, a wounded medic and the only other casualty who was permitted to be Interviewed, agreed with Private Shoffstall that U.

S. troops are not panicky. EACH TO SACRIFICE From Own Economy For Joint Defense, U. S. Stipulates Washington, Aug.

4 (INS) The United States and Its North Atlantic allies today mapped a three-year $20 billion campaign of defense against' Russia. Top U. S. officials are working to mortise into the over-all program, the three-year billion defense budget which the British offer to adopt if America foots part of the bill. President Truman already has asked Congress for more than 85 billion to arm Western Europe during the fiscal year ending June SO, 1951, and It Is known that the administration will ask for $8 billion more in the succeeding two years.

The U. S. program is conditioned on ability of ita North Atlantic allies to provide another $8 billion In defense production. DEPUTIES APPROVE MILITARY EXPANSION. (Meanwhile, deputies of the North Atlantic Defense Council, meeting in London, agreed to recommend that all member governments take Immediate steps to Increase effective military forces for common defense.

(The deputies charged the treaty agencies also with the task of establishing a program to Increase and accelerate production of certain high-priority armament Items.) This gigantic defensive alignment against Communist aggression from the West is predicated on a willingness of North Atlantic partners to make further sacrifices of their own economies. The British offer, relayed to the State Department by Lewis Douglas, U. S. Ambassador, frankly said the United States would have to help pay a share of the bill. This already had been anticipated by military aid planners, who contemplate permitting use of American dollars to buy war production goods in any given allied nation for delivery to another.

PARIS MAY ADD 85 BILLION FRANCS. The French, as a preliminary gesture, have proposed boosting their annual military budget by 85 billion francs (approximately 1220 million). But they are demanding that both the United States and Britain throw considerably more foot soldiers Into Western Germany to fight alongside French Infantry In the event of hostilities. Deputies of the North Atlantic Pact Foreign Ministers, under U. S.

Chairmanship of Charles F. Spofford, currently are struggling In London to work out an equitable overall apportionment of the tremendous cost of full preparedness. These deputies are charged with presenting a final report to the Foreign Ministers thsmselves when the latter meet next month in advance of the United Nations General Assembly. Already, there is stiff Jockeying on proportionate share of the burden. Military aid specialists are reported to be demanding that France Increase her military budget by 100 billion, rather than 85 billion, francs.

President Truman told a Thursday news conference that he was happy over the British offeT. More constrainedly, a State Department spokesman said the British preliminary offer was "now under study, with no decision as to how or when it will be replied to." It was Indicated that no answer would go forward before the week end. Navy Wing Is Equal To 69-Unit Air Force In Truman's Proposal Washington, Aug. 4 (UP) President Truman asked Congress today for an extra $1,155,930,000 in military funds, Including $950 million to put the Navy's air arm on a par with the proposed 69-group Air Force. The funds include $170,930,000 for Army and Navy public works construction and $35 million for Secretary Louis Johnson's Defense Department contingency fund.

They are In addition to the $10,517 million Mr. Truman asked to boost military strength in the Korean crisis. Added to other defense requests since the Korean war, the administration now has asked Congress for more than $16 billion in new appropriations. They would bring defense spending for the present fiscal year, including foreign aid, to more than $31,500 million. The White House said the new requests "are to provide for needs which had not been fully determined" when Mr.

Truman sent his first Korean war request to Congress. Congressional sources had said the Navy plane request was in the offing. The Idea Is to build the Navy's air arm to a level comparable with the new Air Force goal of 69 groups. How many Navy planes will be bought with the new funds was not disclosed for security reasons. But the Navy was slated to receive $1,095 million for plane buying In regular appropriations this year or enough for 817 planes.

Mr. Truman then Included $646,269,000 for Navy plane buying In his emergency request. The new request would boost the total to $2,691 million. The public works funds Including $84,952,000 for the Army and $85,978,000 for the Navy would go for projects directly connected with the defensa effort In line with Mr. Truman's announced policy of laying, aside all others for the time being.

The proposed increase In Secretary Johnson's contingency fund would boost its total to $85 million. Reinforced GIs On Patrols After Stalling Commies' Offense In Korea. Tokyo, Aug, (Saturday) (INS) American B-26 bombers tank a ship unloading supplies to tugs off Communist-held Inchon on Korea's west coast Friday In the heaviest blow of the war to North Korean se transport. The Far East Air Forcea announced that the nationality of the ship was undetermined hut it aald it was either a transport or a freighter. The FEAF said It also did not know whether the North Korean had any ships of that size of their own when the war started, The Navy is checking to deter, mine the nationality of the vessel Hong Kong, Aug.

8 (Saturday) (AP) Gen. Liu Po-Cheng, Commander of thrt Chinese Communist Second Field Army, has announced flatly that Red troops toon "will march Into Tibet," the Red press said today. The announcement, carried by the pro-Communist Chinese language newspaper Wen Wei Pao, waa represented as part of a lengthy report to the Communists' southwest military and administrative committee which ended a five-day meeting In Chungking July 81. The one-eyed Chinese general was quoted as saying the move against Tibet would have two objectives! To drive the "aggressive Influence of American imperialism" from the mountain nation, and to consolidate the western line of national defense." Meanwhile, reinforced American troops who stalled the North Korean march on Pusan yesterday, were preparing for an all-out smash by the Reds foe the vital U. S.

supply port. PATROL ON AGGRESSIVE. The U. 8. Eighth Army, charged with holding the Southeast Koreean beachhead until a counteroffensiv can be launched, reported this development in a communique.

Tatrols from the U. S. 25th Infantry Division moved out aggressively on this front, and were In continuous contact with the enemy, the communique said. The main Communist effort Is on the approaches to Masan, 25 miles west of the U. S.

defensa huh of Pusan. but Gen. Douglas MacArthur said: "The enemy still Is unable to advance In this area due to counter attacking American forces. Fighting continues along an arc running 20 miles southeast to 11 mile east to 15 mllps northeast of Chlnju." General MacArthur referred to this explosive front as the "Chlnju-Pusan axis." Elsewhere, the front was quiet except for patrol activity, including the first patrol by newly arrived Marines. MARINE FLIERS ATTACK, The Marines staged their first aggressive thrust when they seized a hill position at an Undisclosed sector of the front A front dispatch said the Marines took posses-Sinn of the hill In platoon strength.

The small Red force holding the heights fled. Marine Corps airmen also roared Into action for the first time in tha Korean battle and joined other American and Allied fliers In huge bombardment of enemy targets. The carrier-based Marines blasted Red targets In the Chinju area in support of the U. S. 25th Divl-sion, which has reinforced the badly battered 24th Division.

The allied air fleet now is mount ing more than 400 daily air strikes against the invaders. BLAST St'PPLT CENTER. A Navy communique disclosed also that an American destroyer did what It described as a "beautiful job" in setting the torch to the town of Chusan-Po on Korea's East Coast just above Tongdok. The destroyer poured 173 rounds of ammunition Thursday into the town, a North Korean supply center not far from the battle line. An aerial observer said the town was almost entirely in flames.

General MacArthur said that except for the heavy fighting on the Chlnju-Pusan front, the remainder of the 150-mlle line was "disengaged." He said Indications were that Communist forces were regrouping with the possible shifting of two more divisions to the battle in the South. INSIDE THE ENQUIRER: SATURDAY, AUGUST 5, 1950 Tage I Page Senate Approves $34 Billion In Omnibus Money Measure; 5 Per Cent ECA Cut Beaten $10,000 Is Set As Top Fine Senate Snubs Fulbright Alarm Clock Control. Washington, Aug. V-(AP) The House voted today to make hoarding a prison offense, then bogged down in confusion and put off until next week a showdown vote on legislation to prevent war inflation. The anti-hoarding amendment the only change written into the Administration bill provides stiff penalties for persons hoarding un-.

reasonable amount of food, clothing and other things. It was adopted by a standing vote of 112 to 46. It set the top penalty at a year In prison and $10,000 fine. On the other side of the Capitol, Sen. John J.

Sparkman, Democrat, Alabama, announced that the Senate Banking Committee had approved the idea of giving discretionary authority to President Truman in Invoking wage-prlce-ratlon-lng controls. He said the committee rejected, 10 to an alarm clock" plan by Sen. J. William Fulbright, Democrat, Arkansas, for automatic wage, price and rationing controls If prices should rise to a certain point, perhaps 6 per cent above the level of June 15. FOR TRYING! New Bedford, Aug.

4 (INS) Congress got a "T-for-try-Ing" today from the elder statesman, Bernard M. Baruch. Thu 80-year-old Mr. Baruch, who has urged Immediate all-out Industrial and economic mobilization, said Congress, In Its tussle with wage, price and other controls, "Is trying to do the right thing." Mr. Baruch made his comment In a telephone Interview with the New Bedford Standard-Times.

The President has come out against such mandatory legislation but has Indicated that he has no objection to discretionary authority. Still very much up In the air tonight was the question as to what kind of economic control legislation Congress finally would adopt. In a dizzy parliamentary tangle, the House tossed overboard previously approved plan calling for mandatory price-wage ceilings If price continue to rise; then voted twice against handing discretionary price-wage control powers to the President. Toward the end of the day, Rep. Dewey Short, Republican, Missouri, summed up the situation by telling a reporter: "I've never seen so much confusion on a bill Republicans and Democrats alike." House members started out by erasing yesterday's work.

They rejected by a standing vote of 172 to 161 a system of automatic wage-price controls which they had adopted previously. This plan provided for ceilings to be Invoked when living costs topped the June 15 level by 5 per cent. President Truman opposed It, terming It an Invitation to a 5 per cent TWO PLANS BEATEN. Then the House beat down two efforts to give the President standby powers over prices and wages. The plans were offered by Rep.

John C. Kunkel, Republican, Pennsylvania, and Charles B. Deane, Democrat, North Carolina. Representative Kunkel lost 185 to 130, and Representative Deane 151 to 140, both decisions being on teller votes on which member were not recorded by name. When the House quit work for the day, it was considering still another wage-price control amendment tied to the cost-of-living index.

This proposal by Rep. Clinton D. McKinnon, Democrat, California, would give discretionary rower to the President to Invoke wage-price ceilings. But if the cost of living rose 5 per cent above the June 15 level, the controls would become mandatory and prices and wages would be rolled back to the June 10-25 period. Administration strategy In the House apparently is directed toward adoption of the Truman bill as it emerged from the Banking Committee.

Briefly, it provides stand-by powers covering priorities and allocations, credit and market speculation; the right to requisition plants for defense and to guarantee loans for plant expansion. RATIONING RILED OUT. The Tmman bill omits previsions for price and wage controls and specifically prohibits rationing at the retail level, Mr. Truman contends that these are the only control powers required now; that he will ask for others If the need arises. However, a large segment of Congress insists that price-wage-ration-ing authority should be on the law.

books, ready to be used again! inflation. The pulling and hauling over the bill In the House appeared to reflect lack of strength within either administration ranks or among Republicans to defeat the other side outright. Southern Democrats appeared to be tilting the balance back and forth. But the upshot of a hectic week's battling over the bill favored backers of the Truman hill since Republican substitutes had been batted down. lik immediately Invite the South Korean representative to the table without waiting for action on his proposal to Invite North Korea as well.

EXPECTED TO SIT IN. At the start of every previous meeting on the Korean crisis, the South Korean Ambassador to Washington, John Myun Chang, has been called to the Council table at the atart of proceedings. The Council voted to seat the South Korean at Its first emergency session on Korea June 25, which was long before Russia ended Its 29-week UN boycott Tuesday to take over the Council pretldenry for August. The one move In Mr. Malik's opening gambit today that was not a surprise was his demand that the North Koreans get a hearing long with the South Koreans.

It had not been expected that he would Insist upon inviting the Chinese Communists to take part In the Korean debate. The fact that he did meant that Moscow would not relax Its persistent campaign to tie in settlement of the Korean crisis with the question of admitting the Pelplng regime to the UN. Yesterday, the West gave another flat "no" to the K.emlln's price for Korean mediation by voting down an order of business that would have meant debate on China as a prelude to Korean peace talks. Mr. Malik's move succeeded in delaying the U.

S. assumption of the role of tough-talking prosecutor In which It planned to indict ''International Communism" for "aggression" in Korea, THE WEATHER: Cincinnati And Vicinity: Partly cloudy and warmer today and tonight. Low 63, high 85 degrees. voted yesterday to exempt the Marshall Plan from a It per cent reduction whlrh was applied to most other nonmllitary expenditures. In his unsuccessful attempt to reduce the Marshall Plan allowance by 5 per cent, Senator McClellan said that In times like these, countries which have been receiving American economic assistance should be willing to make the same sacrifices as the people of the United States.

Opposing the cut, Sen. Mllland E. Tydlngs, Democrat, Maryland, Chairman of the Armed Services Committee, declared: "No military machine Is any stronger than the economic machine that supports It. If you rut this appropriation you will have to add It to military funds and you will meet yourself coming bark." Sen. Scott W.

Lucas, Illinois, Democrats Leader, declared that Senators who always had opposed the Marshall Plan were heading the effort to reduce the appropriation. In other actions on the big bill, the Senate specifically exempted the Coast Guard from the 10 per cent nonmllitary cut approved yes-terJay, and adopted an amendment by Sen. Edwin C. Johnson, Democrat, Colorado, to permit deficiency appropriations to be made, if necessary, for the transportation of mail. A 10 per cent slash in a number of Items In the bill, adopted by the Senate yesterday, was the only major economy operation performed on the bill during the four weeks it was before the Senate.

Sponsors of this cut, Sens. Styles Bridges, Republican, New Hampshire and Harry F. Byrd, Democrat, Virginia, said the savings would amount to JSIS.OOO.OOO. The cut did not include defense or foreign Items. SURVIVAL As "Sinner' Better Washington, Aug.

4-(AP) The Senate approved a huge $31,237 million appropriations bill today on a voice vote. It took the action after it had rejected another attempt to trim the sum of money this country would spend on Marshall Plan operations. The recommended appropriations would finance most Federal Government operations for the year ending next June 30. The figure is subject to change In the Senate-House conference which will be called shortly to Iron out the differences In the bills passed separately by both houses. The attempt by Sen.

John L. Me-Clellan, Democrat, Arkansas, to whack 8 per cent off the Marshall Plan for economic aid for Western Europe was defeated 41 to 34. As finally approved, the bill carries million In rash and spending authority for the armed services. This does not Include $18,500 million recently requested by President Truman for military outlays In connection with the Korean war, In addition to the regular military funds, the bill carried million In cash and spending authority for all foreign aid, including the $2,726 million for the European Recovery Program, It was the second time In two days, however, that the Foreign Economic Aid Fund had survived a proposed reduction.

Tlinn Rein? "Dead Tampa Proxy Says. I rpnjr. That All Learn Art Of War. Tampa, Aug. 4-(UP) Ministers should tell their congregations that It Is "better to be a live sinner than a dead saint," and should "Invite them to the rifle range" to learn how to make war, the President of the University of Tampa, a former Army chaplain, said today.

Dr. Elwood C. Nance said he had decided that nothing "except armed force can stop the Communists from their present attempt to dominate the world." "I believe that we should have total preparedness based on the laws of the jungle, that everyone should learn every art and science of killing." he said, "I personally do not think that war should be restricted to armies, navies and air forces or that there should be any restrictions as to methods or weapons of destruction, "If I were a minister, after leading my congregation In prayer services, I would Invite them to the rifle range for practice In fire arms. I would tell them that religion la not, at least not In our day, to help them escape the realities of life, but to help them face them.

Sen. Joseph C. O'Mahoncy, Democrat, Wyoming, Chairman of the Joint Congressional Economic Committee, made a lengthy but unavailing appeal to the finance group to approve an Immediate excess profits tax to make certain "that the profiteer and speculator will be working for Uncle Sam." Sen. Walter F. George, Democrat, Georgia, Finance Chairman, told newsmen after the closed-door session that the issue should be deferred and It was Indicated that most of the 13 man committee shared his views.

The Georgian explained: "This is no time to write an excess profits tax not until we have had time to think about It. As I have said before, the time to write an excess profits tax Is November, If we're still her then, or January." Neither President Truman nor John Snyder, Treasury Secretary, who presented details of the administration tax proposal to Congress, presented details of the administration tax proposal to Congress, requested an excess profits levy at this time but Implied that it should be left to a general tax review next Radio Serial Huge Glider Ready, Air Tests Indicate; Carries 60 Troops Dayton, Ohio, Aug. 4 (AP) The Air Force's newest and biggest glider Is nearlng the end of successful flight tests at Wright-Patterson base.
