Inquiry, of Tax
Office in Phila.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 2-- r (AP)
—A House investigating commit
tee, 'was asked bY.-Rep. Hugh D.
Scott (R-Pa.) today to in'quire
into the Philadelphia internal
revenue . office. - •
Scott, former Republican na
tional chairman, said in a news
letter to constitutents he asked
the committee to inquire whether
"several employes have been per
mitted to 'resign quietly, for
reasons of official misconduct.".
He ,also suggested that the
House Ways and Means subcpm-
Mittee- headed by., Rep. Ing, (D-
Calif.) also • investigate whether
employees of the office have been
paying their income taxes, wheth
er "certain employees have large,
unexplained income" and wheth
er, "taxes can be fixed by cash
payments under the counter."
Scott said that his request has
been "ignored" by the committee
so far, adding "perhaps they will
come to Philadelphia after the
municipal election.'
In Philadelphia, collector Fran
cis R. Smith said there is no mass
dismissal of internal revenue em
ployees pending,,He labeled re
ports of dismissals being delayed
until after next Tuesday's elec
tion- as "political hogwash" and
"absolutely untrue."
Eisenhower Flies Home
For Military Tqlks Only
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2—(2P)—Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower was
flying home from Europe tonight for a quick round of Washington
talks he said would be "strictly military."
The, supreme commander of the Allied powers in Europe told
repOrters before-taking off from Paris that, as far as he is con
cerned, .politics is out 'for this
trip.
Nevertheless, politicians hoped
for some clue to just what Eisen
hower will do about the 1952
presidential campaign.
He was asked specifically if
any political subjects would be
discussed with President Truman
and replied: "not from my point,
it won't"
Most of Eisenhower's two days
in Washington—next Monday and
Tuesday—are expected to be de
voted to: Plans for whipping to
gether a closeknit fighting force
in Europe, and ways of ending
a reported . clash , between Wash
ington civilian government lead
ers and. the Pentagon over the
organization and speed of mili
tary production,
Mr. Truman summoned th e
general from Paris to Washing
ton With the announced plan of
conferring on _matters affecting
the supreme allied command and
the North Atlantic defense setup.

Dock Strike
NEW 1 7 ,011 K, Nov, 2--(AP)—
Ship's officers erased a midnight
strike deadline today, sparing the
snarled east coast a' grave new
ship tieup.-
Union president Charles F.
May said negotiations will con
tinue and there will-be no officers'
walkout- until strike-bound e'ast
coast ports return to normal.
The ports- of New York and
Boston already are tied up by a
record 19-day, billion dollar wild
cat' strike of AFL • longshoremen.
A vital defense cargo of nickel
was turned away at New York
during the' da3r. A government
plea to unload it came too late.
A walkout of ti.t. 12,000 east
and gulf coast AFL ships' officers
might have frozen American-flag
vessels in ports from Maine_ to
Texas. Thus far, ships, are free to
come and go even in New York,
although .most of them can't un
load anything but passengers.
The issue between the ships' of
ficers and some 40 shipping firms
centered around union pension
demands.
In the dock tieup, more than
20,000 of the east coast's 65,000
stevedores—members.of the AFL
International Longshoremen's as
sociation—are in,revolt against a
new contract.
The contract, initiated by ILA
President, Joseph P. Ryan, raised
wages a dime to $2.10 an hour.
The rebel dockers want 25 cents
an hour and other improvements.
More than 100 ships have been
idled for days by the longest
walkout in the history of New
York's vast waterfront. Military
cargoes are being handled,, how
ever.

January Draft Call
Set at 59,650 Men
WASHINGTON, Nov. 2—VP)—The Defense Department issued
a draft call today for 59,650 men in January, ticketing 48,000 for
the Army and 11,650 for th? Marines. ,
. It was the largest call since March, when 80,000 were inducted.
It was also the largest draft for the Marine Corps since it began
to dip into - the selective service
manpower pool last August.
The big January goal, the De
fense Department explained,
"compensates for the low call in
December when inductions were
suspended for the holiday period
between Dec. 21, 1951, - and Jan.
2. 1952."
In December selective service
plans to call 16,900. The call for
last January was 80,000, the same
as February and March.
When the January call is com
pleted a total of '794,330 men will
have entered the armed services
through selective service since the
system was reestablished in Sep
tember, 1950. The Army will have
received 746.300 men and the Ma
rines 48,030. Neither the Navy
nor the Air Corps have called for
draftees so far, depending on vol
unteer enlistments.
The Defense Department stated
today the January induction call
is to "provide an orderly build up
of the armed forces to authorized
strength, including the recent in
crease in the strength of the Ma
rine corps."

Hinders Truce
MUNSAN, KOREA, November
3—(AP)—Buffer zone talks
in the Korean armistice negotia
tions narrowed down Friday to
one main issue—the status of
Communist-held Kaeiong, just
south of parallel. 38.
' Except • for minor adjustments,
the Allies and Reds appeared
generally agreed on the remain
der of a cease-fire line stretching
in a lazy s-shape northeastward
across Korea.
In Washington, Gen. J. Lawton
Collins expresbed belief an armis
tice would be achieved eventual
ly. The U. S. Army thief of staff
returned from Korea Thursday.
However, Collins declined to go
into details on the prospects for a
truce. He explained it might af
fect the on-the-spot negotiations.
The Reds insist on keeping
Kaesong, which straddles the his
toric invasion route toward Seoul
—the rubbled Korean capital 34
miles to the southeast.
An Allied spokesman said the
United Nations demand that the
Communists withdraw from Kae
song was firm but not final.
The Communists have agreed
tentatively to accept an Allied
proposal for a two and one-half
mile-wide buffer - zone generally
following the present battlefront
in central and eastern Korea.
