Turkish commanders estimated their troops killed 3,000 Chinese, but Fighting on the Korean front had slackened considerably dur ing the renewed truce negotia tions at Panmunjom until the week-long recess called by the Allies last Monday.

STEELE WASHINGTON (UP) Sen. Alexander Wiley (R-Wls.) struck back hard today at Sen. Robert A. Taft's plea that America "for get about" tha United Nations as weapon against aggression. The enemies of the.

nation, ha said, "would like nothing better" than to sea the United States abandon the UJN. and attempt to "go it alone." On this Memorial Day I do not' believe that we could pay more fitting tribute to the honored dead. Wiley said; than to reaffirm our faith in the UN. as an instrument for working out the ills of ILsick Wiley, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, defended the need for Allied cooperation in a speech prepared for Arlington National Cemetery services at which the President planned to preside. Second Rebuff For Taft Although Wiley did not refer to Taft by name, it was obvious his address was prepared with the remarks of the Senate Republican leader in mind.

It was the second rebuff hand ed Taft by an administration leader. At his news conference Mr. Eisenhower fired a blunt "no" when asked if he agreed with Taft's "go it alone" speech Tues day. Wiley warned against those "who would divide us from our Allies and who are blind to the consequences of their act." The "free world's house cannot stand," he said, if some now split It "wit tingly or unwittingly." Takes Direct Issue The Wisconsin senator took di rect issue both with Taft's view on the United Nations and the doubts he express concerning the validity of the North Atlantic mutual defense system. "We did not 'go it alone' In tha 1940's," Wiley said.

"We are not going to go it alone in the 1950s. The danger to us is far greater now than it was then. The enemies of that American boy who lies in that tomb-( tha Tomb of the Unknown Soldier) would like nothing better than for us to 'go it They would like nothing better than for us to lose all hope that Western Europe can be successfully defended. They would be delighted if we were to lose our faith in the North Atlantic Treaty Organizations and in tha U.N." This seemed a direct reference to Taft's claim that the Norm At-lantic- Treaty was established without reference to the U.N. as the "complete antithesis" of tha charter, for which Taft said it substitutes a "military alliance." Census Taker Charged With Boosting Figures CHICAGO (OR) Matthew J.

"71 army "weald ream by force accessary any effort to bring alien troops into this sovereign country." "We would be compelled to mobilize the national army to halt the foreign troops if they came with the purpose of supervising prison, ers of war," be said. The minister was referring to troops from India, Poland and Czechoslovakia who under thr proposed armistice would enter South Korea to take custody of Communist troops that refuse to go home. Wonld Not Hesitate this would be "tragic outcome Pyun said, but added that his country would not hesitate from taking such action if it becomes necessary.

These statements were made at a press conference with Korean newspapermen. Pyun has ln the past he would resign his post if the UN proposal was accepted. Such a humiliating ceasefire would not only mean an end to our national life but the total end of ithe fret world. We therefore con tinue io raise our voice of warning against such a disaster." Rhea Calls Cabinet In the meantime South Korean President Synjman Rhee. has ln- structed his cabinet to meet with truce talks are resumed at Pan- at munjom.

Rhee left Seoul Friday for ms summer retreat on the south coast after his spokesmen had warned the that -South Korea never would accept the new Allied for mula for a truce ln Korea. The emergency cabinet meeting was set for a. m. (S p. m.

EDT Sunday) at the summer resort. The Communists are scheduled to give the U.N. their answer to tha Allies "final" proposal ior settling the prisoner dispute at 11 a.m. The Reds in effect have thumbed down parts of the plan. Rhee Undecided South Korean sources here said Rhee still had not (decided finally whether to permit Maj- Gen.

Choi Duk Shin, his truce delegate, to go to Panmunjom for the meeting Monday. They said Choi, who boycotted last Monday ineetihf "probably would not return to the truce meeting unless Rhee gave htm a direct order. Choi was at the Korean army center at Taegu today on "military matters." He disclosed South Korean objec tions to the Allied proposal Thurs day in a bitter note to chief U.N. negotiator Lt. Gen.

William Harrison, and demanded that the final formula be withdrawn, Choi claimed the proposal, drawn up in Washington by the United States and her Allies ln the Korean fighting, was a capitulation to the Reds.

Final A-Blast Is Considered LAS VEGAS, Nev. (U.ISwIt appeared tbday that preparations were under way for one final blast at the atomic proving grounds at Frenchman's Flat Nobody seemed to know when the event would take place, but Rep. Sterling Cole, (R-NY) chairman of the Joint Congressional Atomic Energy Committee, admitted last Monday that a bonus explosion was "under consideration." The Atomic Energy Commission fired its 10th and final blast of the spring series last Monday from the new 280-millimeter cannon brought In from Fort Sill, Okla. Although non-committal on the project, an AEC spokesman said "If there is to be another nuclear test in the near future, it will not be the 280-millimeter rifle's atomic projectile." It was indicated that, if another blast took place, it would be the granddaddy of the group, and equal to at least two of the "Model bombs dropped on Japan during the war. i beth II danced until three o'clock ln the morning today with dashing officers of her guards' regiment at a Thames River palace built by King Henry VIII.
