MacArthur Favors
Use Of Nationalists
WASHINGTON, April s—(l?)—Gen. Douglas MacArthur kicked
over the administration traces again today by applauding a Republi
can leader's demand for the use of Chiang Kai-Shek's Nationalist
troops to open a second front against the Communists in Asia.
He declared the demand made by Rep. Martin of Massachusetts,
Republican leader of the House, is logical and in accord with the
American tradition of "meeting
force with maximum counter
force."
The Administration is opposed
to use of Chiang Kai-Shek's
troops, now penned up on For
mosa. The official position here
p is that they are needed for the
defense of Formosa. Officials also
say they want to prevent a spread
of the present war beyond Korea.
In a letter to Rep. Martin, Mac-
Arthur / declared:
'"lt seems strangely difficult fcr
some to realize that here in Asia
is where the Communist conspira
tors have elected to make their
play for global conquest, and that
we have joined the issue thus
raised on the battlefield; that here
we fight Europe's war with arms,
while the diplomats there still
fight it with words; that if we
lose the war to Communism in
Asia the fall of Europe is in
evitable. Win it and Europe most
probably would avoid war and
yet preserve freedom. As you
point out, we must win. There is
no substitute for victory."
This placed MacArthur squarely
in conflict with the theory held
by administration officials that
Europe, not Asia, is the major
theater in the world-wide con
flict with Communism.
MacArthur's letter was in reply
to a letter from Martin, asking
for the general's reaction to Mar
tin's Brooklyn speech Sept. 12. At
that time the Republican leader
called for a second front on the
Chinese mainland and use of Chi
ang's forces to set it up.

Syrian troops southeast of the Sea

for the killing of Seven Israeli
policemen there. An official Is

was successful and that the Syr
ians did not return the fire.
(A Syrian army spokesman in
Damascas said eight Israeli planes
took part in an hour-long attack.
Syrian armed forces struck back
with heavy fire, he said, and pos
sibly damaged two Israeli planes.
He added there were no Syrian
casualties.)
The Israeli spokesman said in
announcing the attack that the
Syrians had taken up fortified
positions after invading a demili
tarized border zone.
He described the bombing as a
successful retaliation for the "cold
blooded murder of seven Israeli
policemen•in this area yesterday."
"Positions bombed included the
El Hamma police station within
the demilitarized area and also a
number of fortified positions a
few meters inside• Syrian territory
proper, from where the Israeli
policemen were fired on and
killed," the spokesman said.
21 Republics
OK Program
WASHINGTON, April s—(. l n
The American Foreign Ministers
conference virtually finished its
work today by approving all
points of a broad military and
economic program designed to
protect this hemisphere against
aggression.
Briefly, this is what the 21
American republics voted to do:
Each country will build up its
armed forces. Special units of
these forces may be used both to
protect the western hemisphere,
and to support United Nations
efforts elsewhere. Approval was
unanimous on.. this touchy ques
tion.
Internal security will be
strengthened by controls over
spies, sabotage and communist
activities in general.
Latin America will do all it
can to increase production of
vitally important raw materials
needed for the rearmament pro
gram.
In return, the U.S. will grant
them loans and long-term con
tracts to help certain domestic
development programs, will try to
keep scarce items moving south
of the border, and whenever pos
sible will consult with other coun
tries when quotas and prices are
fixed.

Argentines
Claim Two
Atom Finds
NEW YORK, April 5—(lA)---Ar
gentina claims two discoveries in
new ways to make Atomic power.
This is revealed in the verbatim
report of Dr. Ronald Richter, as
made •to the Argentine press
March 25, the day after President
Per on announced the Atomic
news. The report was received
here today.
Dr. Richter does not explain
either discovery, because of - Ar
gentine security orders. But he
makes a number of broad, scien
tific statements which hint at his
work. None of these contains any
thing which on its face is impos
sible.
One of the most surprising
statements is that an A-Bomb
would not explode if placed in
his Argentine reactor., This as
sertion is not explained, but seems
to mean that the A-Bomb ma
terials would not react in the
usual manner. This statement is
brought in as an almost casual
illustration of Richter's claim that
his reactor is completely different
from the American reactors.
He says Argentina can make an
atom bomb, with the implication
that he means by his new
methods.
He says twice that American
atomic scientists already may
have fou n d some of the facts
which he is keeping secret, and
that the Americans keep them
secret for security reasons.
Big 4 Deputies
Appear Closer
To Agreement
PARIS, April s—(l))—A West
ern embassy official said the Big
Four Deputy Foreign Ministers
appeared closer tonight to agree
ment on the agenda for a pro
posed conference of their chiefs
than at any time since they began
meeting here March 5.
However, there are still some
pretty wide gaps to be filled, this
informant added, to complete the
list of topics.
U nit e d States, British and
French deputies were guests of
Russia's Andrei Gromyko at lun
cheon in the Soviet embassy to
day. No announcement was made
of what took place, but an au
thoritative source said "They cov
ered a great deal of ground" in
a frank, four-hour talk.
The discussion, conducted in
English, substituted for the sche
duled formal meeting at the Rose
Palace.
Recalling that at least twice be
fore the delegates have made pro
gress following luncheons, one ob
server said it might be a good
idea if they eliminated formal
gatherings and talked only after
food and drink.
The Western Powers and Russia
are not too far apart on several
issues which both sides feel the
foreign ministers should - discuss.
Both sides have been making
what each described as "conces
sions" on minor points for two
weeks now. However, there are
subjects on which they continue
apart.
Rearming West Germany still is
the big issue.
The West says West Germany's
rearmament is important to West
ern defense. Russia says West
German rearmament will increase
world tension.
Reds Convinced
West Wants War
GERMANY, April 5 (fP)— A
former Russian Army major said
tonight the Kremlin is beginning
to convince the Russian people
that the West wants war.
.Gregori Limkov, who fled his
post in East Germany as a mili
tary administration officer, said
efforts of the Western radio to
reach Russia's man on the street
are not strong enough to standup
under daily barrages of Soviet
propaganda.
Spies Get Death Penalty
For Wartime Treachery
NEW YORK, April 5 (JP) A wartime husband and wife
atom. spy team was sentenced to death today—the first
Americans in the nation's history so doomed for sttch treach
ery
They are Julius Rosenberg and his wife Ethel, who fer
reted out A-Bomb secrets for a Russian-bossed international
spy-ring.
Military courts have sentenced
native American spies to death in
the past but a civil court never
has.
A third defendant, radar expert
Morton Sobell, was convicted
with the Rosenbergs. But he es
caped the death penalty and got
30 years in prison instead.
In a grave but stirring lecture,
sentencing Judge Irving R. Kauf 7
man said the Rosenbergs' treason
in his own opinion—led to the
war in Korea.
The result, he added, has been
50,000 American casualties al
ready. Moreover, he said, their
crime may yet doom to flaming
atomic death millions more inno
cent citizens.
"By your betrayal you un
doubtedly have altered the course
of history to the disadvantage of
our country, Judge Kaufman told
the Rosenbergs.

The team arrived at La Guar
dia field at 7:05 a.m. yesterday
after making stops in Zurich,

far.
Both men stood toe to toe and
slugged for all they were worth
throughout the three rounds. Two
of the judges gave the bout to
Orsak, while the third voted for
Albarano.
Marino Loses Decision
The other Penn State entry,
1.25-Ib. Sam Marino dropped a
unanimous decision to Frank Ech
evarria of Idaho.
The Idaho champion is current
Pacific Coast conference and
Northwest Invitational titlis t.
Marino used effective counter
punching in the first two rounds,
but tired in the Latter stages, as
the more experienced Echevarria
kept boring in. Echevarria is not
a newcomer to the tourney hav
ing lost to Minnesota's Neil Ofs
thun in last year's preliminaries.
PA(E THREE
Kaufman said, must "demonstrate
with finality that this nation's
security must remain inviolate—
that traffic in military secrets,
whether promoted by .slavish de
votion to a foreign ideology or by
a desire for monetary gains must
cease."
He set the week of May 21 for
the executions.
However, both Rosenbergs have
said they will appeal their jury
conviction of last week. Such an
appeal could delay their execu
tion for many months and might
even save their lives if successful.
The third defendant, Morton
Sobell, 34, drew the maximum
prison sentence-30 years. Judge
Kaufman—admitting Sobell's
er guilt nevertheless recom
mended that he not be paroled
and that he serve the full term.
Judge Kaufman put off until
tomorrow the sentencing of Mrs.
Rosenberg's brother, David Green
glass, 29-year-old former Army
sergeant.
He confessed his part in the
traitorous wartime spy plot and
became a star government witness
against his sister. His witness
stand evidence was a dramatic
highlight of the trail, pitting as
it did brother against sister.
