Did You Ever See a Horse Do This?
Single Copy, Five Cents
Need Seen For
'Investment' In
Southern Korea
Acheson Mentions
Prospect During
Senate Testimony
WASHINGTON, Mar. 24-</p)—
Undersecretary of State Dean
Acheson said today that the United
States must invest fluids to put
southern Korea on a sound eco-
nomic basis because Russia has
blocked any agreement for a uni-
fied government* of the country.
Acheson mentioned this prospect
•when testifying before the senate
foreign relations committee in sup-
port of President Truman's plan
to bulwark Greece and Turkey
against communism.
He did not say how much the
Korean project may cost, but said
the war, state and navy depart-
ments are considering it.
The acting cabinet officer told
the senators there are no plans to
send troops to Qreece or Turkey.
* "We have not been asked to do
so. We do not foresee any need to
do so. And we do not intend to
do so,” Acheson asserted.
Hearings Opened
His testimony was prepared for
the opening of hearings by the
senate foreign relations committee
on President Truman’s program
for shoring up the independence
of the two southern European
I ♦countries with American dollars,
weapons and limited military mis-
sions.
As he did before the house for-
eign affairs committee last week,
the acting cabinet officer said he
does not think the aid proi>osaLs
will lead to war.
• I think that quite the opposite
is true,” Acheson told the senators.
Acheson’s testimony before the
|, senate committee was one side of
a two-way congressional drive to
pi ess the aid program through. It
was spurred by documentary accu-
sations that Russia is attempting
to hoist the flag of communistic
control over both Greece and
Turkey.
These documents—their "secret"
label removed under congressional
pressure to give the nation the
•full facts"-*a<xused Russia of
|* waging a "war of nerve*" against
Turkey, told of a "master plan
to make Greece communistic, and
called Poland a Soviet “satellite."
Allotments Disclosed
In the second segment of tire
Capitol Hill drive. Undersecretary of
State Will Clayton, ill charge of the
department's economic affairs, told
the house foreign relations commit-
tee all but $150,000,000 of the pro-
I, posed $400,000,000 aid program would
be spent for military purposes in the
two countries.
He said approximately $300,000,000
would go to Greece, split on a 50-50
basis for military and civilian ne-
cessities. Of the latter $150,000,000
he said $80,000,000 had been ear-/
marked for internal costs to help
Greece return to economic stability,
$50,000,000 for foreign exchange
costs, and $20,000,000 millions for
I'sucli things as livestock and farm
equipment.
Clayton acknowledged all of the
$100,000,000 tentatively proixwed to
ease Turkish troubles would go for
safeguarding the country's security.
Most of it would be spent directly
for military equipment but some of
It for closely allied projects such as
improving the transportation sys-
tem.

By Bus Company
OKLAHOMA CITY, Mar 24—m
— The Oklahoma Transportation

applications for new drivers to re-
place those now on strike as pickets

instate service to points other than

Meanwhile, the Dixie Motor Coach j
lines, one of the other union-driver I
companies which pledged “full co-1
operation” with the striking OTC
drivers, halted service at the Union j
bus station at Ardmore and is using!
the All American bus lines station,
a block away. #

complied with the company's ulti-
matum to return to work.

“Were equipped to go on another
30 or 40 days from right now,” he
declared. “If other local unions want
to give us economic comfort then,
that's up to them. We don't want

Air Power Of
Russia Found
Above U. S.
Data Indicates
Soviet Has 16,000
Planes in Use
WASHINGTON, Mar. 24 —t/H)—
Russia may have more military
planes operating today than the
United States, on the basis of of-
ficial and unofficial records avail-
able here. The relative position of
the two powers appears to be as
follows.
Russia—about 16,000 planes or all
types in use, the majority of which
are fighter types.
United States—About 13,000 oper-
ations aircraft, of which a little
tnore than 5.000 are army air force
and about 8,000 navy or marine
planes, carrier and land-based (Rus-
sia’s naval strength is believed to
be of so minor a nature that her
naval aviation is of unimportant
size.)
These figures do not embrace re-
serve aircraft of which the United
States possesses a number approxi-
mating' her operational force, al-
though these are in widely varying
States of readiness. The size of Rus-
sia's reserve is not known.
Output Comparison Difficult
A comparison of aircraft produc-
tion potentialities is difficult, main-
fc' because of lack of any informa-
tion on Russian objectives or present
capabilities. Air strategists note,
however, that one important factor
is that Russia has turned away from
the idea of building a strong naval
fleet, except for submarines. This
could mean that material and man-
power otherwise used for shipbuild-
ing could be diverted to aircraft
production.
Airmen are quick to say figures
indicating Russia now has a numer-
ical superiority in planes docs not
necessarily mean her air power is
superior.
While a great quantity of the
American air fleet is made up of
planes either obsolete or in the
process of becoming so. tire United
States is giving close attention to
further development of long range
bombers and Jet-propelled fighters.
