British Oilmen
Start Preparing
To Leave Iran
ABADAN, Iran, Oct. 2—(#)—
Downcast British "oilmen made
their last preparations tonight to
take their leave and surrender
to the Iranians' a vast oil empire
built-up through' half a century.
The evacuation, beginning at
12:30 a.m. tomorrow is a black
day for the British who-are end
ing the Anglo-Iranian oil com
pany’s lucrative development of
one Of the richest oil areas on the
globe.
It is a triumph for those Iran
ians who had worked for this day
since last March", when Iran na'-
tionalized the nation’s . tremen
dous oil resources. But it could
prove a hollow triumph, and
worse than defeat, if these Iran
ians, are unable to operate their
own industry.
Iranians can’t quite' believe
that their dreams of kicking the
British out are . being' realized.
They credit-. President Truman
with easing tension by his advice
to the British not to use force.

in the 43rd annual governors’
conference here in which politi
cal '.talk has overshadowed dis
cussions of state problems.
They, were particularly signi
ficant because Byrnes has been
mentioned as the possible leader
of an independent southern, move-'
nient in case Truman again wins
the Democratic nomination.

QUARTERS, Korea, Wednesday,
Oct. 3—(/P) —Flashing U.S. Sabre
jets shot down six Russian-type
MiG’s Tuesday in a blazing re
newal of high speed air battles
over Northwest Korea, the Fifth
Air Force reported.
Tying the record for enemy jets
destroyed in a single day, Fifth
Air Force pilots also probably
destroyed one MIG and damaged
another, in two furious engage
ments involving 193 planes. The
Air Force said all Allied planes
returned to bases.
On the ground, fiercely resist
ing Chinese, Communists again
stalled an Allied ridgeline drive
in Western, Korea.
The haze of battle hung thick
over the. Chorwon ridge. A re
inforced Communist battalion,
possibly -1000 men, rained gren

Korean War Negotiations
Site Agreements Delay
TOKYO, Wednesday, Oct. 3 to end the Korean
war by negotiation hung in delicate balance .today.
The Communist radio hinted the Reds would refuse to agree to
the Allied proposal to move the talks to neutral ground.
Gen. Omar Bradley, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, talked
confidently of the Allies fighting the war to a successful , end should
the truce talks blow up. :
The United Nations command
waited through 'the seventh
straight day Tuesday for a for
mal Communist reply to the UN
proposal for shifting the talks to
Songhyon, a village in no-man’s
land six miles southeast of Kae
song, original conference site.
Unofficially, the Communist
Pyongyang radio in a commentary
early today did provide an an
swer. It said: v
“The delay, in resumption of
the truce talks hinges not in a
change of its site. It-lies, as Gen.
Matthew B. Ridgway himself
well knows, in the violation of
the neutrality zone.”
The Red radio again asserted
that Ridgway, the supreme Allied
commander, was engaged in a
“plot to break up the truce talks”
by proposing the change of sites.

UN Army Proposed
By Sub-Committee
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Oct. 2—(/P)—A suggestion was for
mally advanced today that regional defense forces, such as Gen.
Dwight D. 'Eisenhower’s European army, should be called upon to
fight under a UN banner in case of an attack.
' The suggestions came from a sub-committee of the General
Assembly’s collective measures committee, which has been studying
the whole field of political, eco
nomic, and military measures
that might be used-against a fu
ture aggressor.
NATO Only Group
The Eisenhower army is being
organized under the North Atlan
tic Treaty, Organization, whose
members' decided it was necessary
to build a regional defense force
after an East-West deadlock pre
vented the formation of a perma
nent UN army.
So far this is the only regional
military force of this type, but
there are area defense pacts in
the western hemisphere and in
the Pacific which may eventually
result in similar forces.
. To Avoid Unpreparedness
The report of the military sub
committee is intended primarily
to prevent the UN from being
caught unprepared again as it
was in the Korean conflict. It
also seeks to avoid in the future
what many delegates consider as
weaknesses of the original UN
command under Gen.' Douglas
MacArthur.

Lodge Reports Air
Power Increased
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2— (JP)—
Senator Lodge (R-Mass.) informed
the Senate today that the Joint
Chiefs of Staff have agreed to
increase American air power by
about 50 per cent.
He said the military leaders al
ready have issued orders to ex

about 140 groups,” and to devote
much of the expansion to tactical

Looking Glass
with George
In these unsettled times,
when we must ponder many
problems, have you given due
consideration to the plight of
a female kangeroo without a
pouch? Let us face it: this is
not'a pleasant thought.
Such a sad situation could
be paralleled only by a female
girl sans her handbag. Un
thinkable, isn’t' it.
Where would she put'her lip
stick, compact, perfume atom
izer, keys, glass case; spare
earrings, bracelets, and.pins;
pen, pencils, note paper, date
book; cigarettes, lighter, comb,
handkerchief, mirror, receipts,
letters, knitting needles !and
yarn. Oh yes, and money.
No wonder women now
shoulder their bags:' they can
no longer support them by
hand. No, the mailman is no
longer alone. The female bag
is here and must be reckoned
with.
And I reckon the best place
to choose your bag is at Ethel’s.
Ethel’s selection is terrific. For
example, if you like to sport a
wardrobe vof three bags, but
have money for only one,
you’re in. Basically, it’s a neat
little fabric bag in a solid
brown with brass fittings. But
add a reversible jacket and
presto; you have either a col
orful plaid bag, or a smart red
corduroy number. Three bags
in one for a mere $4.50. There
are a number of other color
combinations. 1
Or take the pouch with draw
strings. You could beat any
man into submission with this
one. But you won’t have to;
he’ll swoon first, it’s so becom
ing. r
Then too, you’ll find oodles
of cprday, faille, velvet, and
leather bags. Boxes, vanities
and satchels. In short “Ethel
holds the bag” you want. Drop
in today and pick yours up for
a pittance. Tell Ethel that
George sent you.-
