Dulles Declares
Shakeup Due
In Department
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27 (A 5 )— Secretary of State Dulles said to
day the State Department n'e'fds; ashakeup and he is just the man
to do it. He rejected any idea" that department policies are being “dic
tated” by Sen. McCarthy (R-Wis.j or other congressional investigators.
~ Dulles said, however, that he
' welcomed any disclosures from
congressional inquiries which
would make the department
more “competent, loyal and se
cure.”
The new secretary thus dealt
with- published suggestions that
the McCarthyinvestigation has
damaged State Department mor
ale and effectiveness and that the
Eisenhower administration was
becoming unhappy over the sit
uation.
Thunder jets
Strike Near
Red Border
SEOUL, Saturday, Feb. 28 (/P>
—Thunderjets stepped up their
ever bolder Manchurian border
strikes Friday with a fiery raid
on “a Communist. training center
within three minutes flying time
of the huge Red MIG' jet base at
Antung, Manchuria.
...The MIGs made no move to in
terfere while the FB4s turned the
training center at Chixsa'n, about
30 miles east of Antung into a
mass of flames.
• Sabre jets screened the Thun
derjets, ready to pounce on the
Russian-built MIGs if they dared
to show up.
When the Thunderjets ranged
up the center of Korea a week
ago and struck the border city, of
Manpojin, more than 100 miles
northeast of Antung, Sabres had
to beat off scores of MIGs stung
into action.
Friday’s target at Chusan. was
right in the middle of MIG Alley
—the corridor down which the
•MIGs frequently dart in numbers
far exceeding those of the Sa
bres.
FB4 pilots said they destroyed
-20 buildings at Chusan. It is be
tween Yongsan and Taptong on
-the main supply road to the war
front leading down from the bor
der city of Uiju.

Compulsory prostitution in :t h e
cafe society circles he frequented.
He will appeal the verdict.
A sympathetic all-male jury ac
quitted the 23-year-old Jelke on
one count—that of forcing call
girl Pat Thompson into. prostitu
tion.
It convicted him on two othgE
counts of compulsory prostitution,
involving Pat -Ward and Mar
guerite Cordova. However, the
jury, which deliberated less than
five hours,' added an unusual ap
peal for mercy for the stubby,
playboy bachelor. Such an appeal
is “rare unless a defendant’s life
is at stake.
The mercy plea in no way binds
General Sessions Judge Francis L.
Valente, who scheduled sentenc

draw as much as 40 years in pris

However, even Asst. Dist. Atty.

Jelke’s. arrest last summer and
then prosecuted him, said he had
no quarrel with the jury’s>desirei
to soften'the blow. '

Dulles said • that with some
42,000 employes at home and over
seas, the department is over
staffed and some of its methods
needlessly cumbersome. He esti
mated it would take six months
or more before the situation is
put into “satisfactory shape”
through a reorganization already
started by Donald B. Lourie, for
mer Chicago businessman and the
new undersecretary for adminis
tration.
Meantime, ’Dulles said he had
no evidence of low morale or dis
loyalty but acknowledged his
own personal contacts thus far
were limited to about a score of
top officials.
Exposure Feared
Earlier McCarthy said he had
information that the morale of
“really good Americans” in the
State Department was at an all
time high. He said he referred to
those “who have been opposed
to Soviet Russia and the Acheson
policies.”
“The only people whose morale
is low,” he said, “are those who
have something to fear and who
don’t want to see the light ap
proaching their dark corner.”
McCarthy made "plain he had
no intention of letting up on his
Senate subcommittee inquiry in
to security affairs and the Voice
of America.

12.5 Billion Slash
In Budget Predicted
WASHINGTON, Feb. 27 (TP)—Sen. Carlson (R-Kan.) predicted
today Congress will be able to slash 1214 billion dollars lor the fed
eral budget, perhaps paving the.way for tax cuts this year.
Rekindling hopes for an early let-up in the nation’s tax burden —
hopes that had dwindled perceptibly in the last few weeks—Carl
son told the Senate:
“We have a mandate to ignore
the astronomical estimate by ex
penditures bequeathed us by the
former Trurhan J administration.
We can' discharge that mandate
and start lifting the excessive bur
den of taxation from the backs
of the American people if \ve have
the determination.
“The people expect it'- of us.”
The Kansas senator, one of
President Eisenhower’s key ad
visers during the 1952 election
campaign, went on to say that
factors beginning to emerge at
the outset of the new Republican
administration indicate it may be
possible to balance the federal
budget and trim tax levies this
year
Taken together, Carlson said
these factors give every indica
tion that Congress will be able
to hold expenditures down to the
1952 budget level of $66 billion.
It would be 12 V 2. billion less
than the new $7B billion budget
submitted to Congress by Tru
man before he left office on Jan.
20. That is the budget both Con
gress and the Eisenhower admin
