JP Korean Premier Kim II Sung today ordered his troops "to drive the United States and South Korean forces from Korea by the end of August." In an order of the day, Kim said: "The longer this is delayed the stronger will become the United States and South Korean defenses." The order, broadcast in Korean from the Communist capital of Pyongyang, was monitored and trans-lated in Tokyo. Kim is concurrently commander-in-chief of the North Korean forces.

He told his front line troops to "destroy the South Korean and United States army to the last man." He ordered "all commanders to act courageously, taking full control of their men." By that he presumably meant tighter military discipline to continue the attack. The order of the day called upon Noith Korean army units to "unite with all your power in the attack It also urged guerrillas operating back of American and South Korean lines to harass the United Nations positions. TOKYO, Tuesday, Aug. 15. (JP) Bloody battles flamed in the curves of the Naktong river today as Communist commanders shoved more troops across in an attempt to breach the Allied defense lines.

(JP) India suggested today that the United Nations se curity council entrust to its six small-nation members the task of drafting a Korean peace plan.

India's chief delegate, Bene- gal N. told the council frankly that the plan was designed mainly to end the procedural stalemate which has in creased tather than reduced "ten sion between the two great pow ers." The proposed committee would include representatives of India, Yugoslavia, Cuba, F.gypt,Norway and Ecuador and would act as a sort of "little security council" with powers to make recommendations to the full council. Not Expansionists The main advantages, Rau said. would be that the committee could meet in private or in public, could hear any person it pleased, and none of its members could be sus pected of any expansionist ambl tions. Rau was one of four speakers who continued the non-Communist assault on the way Russia's Jakob A.

Malik has discharged his func tions as council president since he ended his boycott Aug. 1. France's Jean Chauvel charged Malik is aiding Communist North Korea by prolonging the procedural stalemate for propaganda purposes. "To paralyze the council which has taken the responsibility for engaging the United Nations in the defense of the Republic of Korea Chauvel said, "is to aid the North Koreans, the attackers of the Re-J public." Chauvel's Simile As for Malik's efforts to prove the United States the aggressor in Korea, Chauvel said, it is just another case of "pointing to a chair ana calling it a table." Chauvel chided Malik for playing a Dr. Jekyll and Mr.

Hyde performance by speaking as represen tative of the Soviet Union and then, as council president, agreeing with his own statements. Antonio Quevedo of Ecuador accused Malik of violating council rules repeatedly and ignoring the will of the majority. Norway's Arne Sunde said he (Continued on Page 9, Column 1.) All Saved During Cruise Ship Fire TADOUSSAC, Que, Aug. 14. VP) All 400 passengers and 150 crew members aboard the cruise ship Quebec reached shore safely today after the vessel caught fire In the lower St.

Lawrence river. The fire was reported to have started about 4:30 p.m. (EST) in the No. 1 hold. Crewmen fought the blaze but could not bring It under control.

The fire started off St. Simeon and it was decided to make the 25-mile run to Tadoussac. The pas sengers and crew were taken off in this summer resort town at the mouth of the Saguenay river. Passengers were placed on the forward part of the vessel away from the flames as the Quebec came into Tadoussac. On reaching the harbor here they were taken down in ladders.

The Canadian steamship lines yessel still was ablaze tonight in the harbor and was developing a list. Officials of the line in the city of Quebec said the ship was a "complete loss." DEFENSE SHORT OF U.S. TARGET PartnersIuVs Plans Fail To Provide Enough Punch In View of Americans WASHINGTON, Aug. (P) The United States today was reported ready to call on its Atlantic pact partners to boost even further the stepped-up rearmament effort they have proposed. Informed officials said the over-all defense increases out lined bv America's Atlantic pact allies appear to fall short of what the U.

S. believes is necessary to force an effective barrier to Communist aggression in western Europe. American defense experts who have been analyzing the new pro grams sav that while they are "definitely a step in the right di rection," few match in proportion the scope and speed of the U. rearmament drive. Not Enough Manpower The western European programs.

they indicated, generally fail to provide enough additional man power for defense forces quickly enough, in the judgment of Amen can officials. There also was said to be an apparent tendency to rely too heavily on large-scale American financial aid as a condition to boosting domestic arms production Because of these factors, CharlesJ M. Spofford. Secretary of State Achcson's deputy on the North At lantic council, is expected to urge European governments especially to raise their sights. He tentatively plans to leave for London Friday for a meeting with pact representa tives Aug.

22. American officials emphasize they are "not too disturbed" that the initial arms programs' submitted by the pact partners do not go far enough. Hasty Job Most of them, they pointed out, were drafted hastily in a 12-day span in response to an urgent American appeal for a quick indi cation of what more they could do to contribute to North Atlantic de fenses. The full scope of the U. S.

re armament program was not as apparent at that time. In addition, American officials believed that the treaty allies have submitted what amounts to their "minimum offers" with the understanding they can be upped once they are discussed over the conference table. Eight nations have replied thus far with detailed outlines of what they are ready to do to bolster North Atlantic security Britain, France, Belgium, Italy, Luxem bourg, Netherlands, Denmark and Norway. Canada has announced plans to increase its defense budget in parliament but has not yet present ed a detailed report. Portugal re ply is reported delayed by a cab inet reorganization.

Iceland, the twelfth pact member, has no de fense forces. Top Secret American officials snied away from detailed comments on the European defense plan because many aspects are "top secret However, they indicated that manpower for increased defense forces would be the principal problem wnen talks begin in London. Britain's proposal to spend ap proximately 59,500,000,000 during the next three years was viewed as providing little for increasing the size of the British army. France's offer to arm and equip 15 divisions in the next three years was seen as heartening, but American enthusiasm for this is somewhat tempered by France's request to Britain and America to put five divisions each on the European continent. The American reaction to this is that the U.

S. while it is fighting a war in Korea is in no position to promise it can divert that much manpower to Europe, especially in view of the limited size of the U. S. army. Some officials consider it quite possible that a final coordinated defense program by the Atlantic pact countries may have to await high-level discussion.

This may happen at the meeting of the At lantic pact foreign ministers which is scheduled for New York Sept. 15. Assumption to Church Dogma most Important events of the 1950 Holy Year. The delegates are bring, ing thousands of statues of the Vir-gin, some of them from the world's most noted shrines. Pope Pius, in proclaiming the dogma in St.

Peter's basilica on the day of the Feast of All Saints, will speak "ex cathedra" (from the chair); that is, when he is presumed by the church to be infallible. The proclamation will compel all members of the church to believe that the Mother of Jesus was borne bodily into Heaven or expose themselves to heresy. Belief in the assumption has been nearly universal in the church, Pope Benedict XIV, who reigned from 1740 to 1758, declaring "it is a probable opinion which to deny were Impious and blasphemous." Catholic belief in the bodily assumption is based on the statement of Saint John of Damascus, born about 676, that her tomb, when opened upon the request of Saint Thomas, was found empty and the apostles therefore concluded -that the body was taken up to Heaven. HARD TO ASSAY People Seem Afraid to Be Quoted; Sheriff's Race Holds Major Interest This is another in a series on the. general political situation in Arizona.

By LESTER X. IXSKEEP Star Staff Correspondent AJO, Aug. 14. Ajo is a hot bed of political maneuvering which makes extremely diffi cult an accurate survey of the outcome in the Sept. 12 Democratic primary election.

Constant probing, which in some instances broke through the elusiveness of various leaders, indicates that Gov. Dan E. Garvev will carry this area, as he did in 1S48. Organized labor, as such, has taken no stand in the gubernatorial race, and even if it did there is considerable doubt that such action would have any appreciable effect upon the outcome. At no place visited during the current survey wa3 there as much fear of being quoted evidenced as it was here.

Most of the people questioned seemed afraid they would be "put on the spot." Sheriff Holds Interest Actually, the governor's race is much less discussed here than is the sheriff's campaign. While many people have not made up their minds on the governorship, partisanship in the sheriffs race is apparent. Oscar Cole, present member of the house of representatives from Pima county's first legislative district, was emphatic in his prediction that "Governor Garvey not only will carry this precinct and Pima county, but he will carry the state by an even larger plurality than two years ago." As a candidate himself, Cole felt free to express his opinion, because he has no opposition In the primary. All other local candidates are opposed, hence are afraid to express their opinions on other races for fear of hurting themselves. However, one other candidate (who does have opposition) was courageous enough to express his opinion on the governor's race.

He Is G. T. Alley, who has served three terms on the board of supervisors. Alley, like Cole, believes Ajo will stick with Qaryey. Concurrence Found This same view is expressed by one of the CIO organizers and several other people as were willing to express themselves.

However, some people, especially among the Spanish-Americans, said Richard F. Harless has some support, as does Mrs. Ana Frohmiller. They did not give any appreciable strength to J. M.

Smith or Ralph Watkins, despite the fact that the former gave away one of his yearling colts at a recent meeting here. Actually, with the exception of the Smith rally, which wasn't too successful, none of the gubernatorial candidates has done any real work here. Importance of Harless endorsement by the railroad brotherhoods was discounted here. Long time residents and political observers say Ajo labor, regardless of its affiliauons, has never voted as a bloc. Elks Back Garvey Much of Garvey's local strength stems from the Elks.

The governor not only is a member of this or ganization, but has accepted several invitations to attend local af: fairs sponsored by it. Ajo, with' a present estimated population of approximately 8,000, nas a strong Elks' organization. It Is one of the principal community affairs in a town which has little in the way of entertainment and recreation. Said one man: "Dan Garvey is so popular with the Elks that I believe every member of the or ganization will vote for him, re gardless of their labor affiliations." In the sheriff's race, Jerome P. Martin, incumbent, Capt.

Frank Eyman, and Frank Snodgrass seem to be the leading candidates. Maurice T. Guiney, after an auspicious start, appears to have lost ground. Martin Still Strong Opinions varied as to the strength of the various candidates. Martin personally is not popular, but retains considerable strength due to his local deputies.

Eyman made a definite impres sion during the recent visit. Peo ple who heard him were impressed by his knowledge of police work. (He recently retired as senior cap tain of the Tucson police force.) Source of Snodgrass support was not easily determined. However, it was pointed out that he received a substantial vote here two years ago, and still retains some of that support. John F.

O'Mara definitely has the lead here for county attorney. A former chief deputy county attorney, O'Mara was raised here, hence has many friends. Little support can be found for Bryce Wilson, present county attorney. Alley is opposed by Dave Wine, 24-year-old law graduate, for the board of supervisors. Sentiment generally favors the incumbent, although Wine is conducting an active campaign.

While some active campaigning might change the' picture, William F. Kimball and Thomas Collins appear to be the leading candidates here for the state senate. A. C. Edwards, present justice, Is opposed by Jesse W.

Nicholson. Five men are running for constable. They are John F. McMahon, incumbent; Dewey Henderson, Melton Meuber, Art Latham, and George B. Oldham.

WASHINGTON, Aug. U-VP) Senator Hayden (D-Ariz) said today the proposed compulsory health insurance "doesn't haTe a chance to pass the senate. "I've talked to too many senators who are against it," he told a reporter. Terming the plan "socialized medicine," Hayden said he is opposed to it. "From the stories I've heard about it and how it operates in England, I don't think much of it," Hayden said.

"I believe everyone has a right to choose his own doctor. "We have developed marvelous skills in this country. "I just can't figure where the government can take over a job like that and do it as well as it's being done." CARRIER STRIKE TALKSCONTINUE Union Officials Agree to Keep up White House Peace Conference WASHINGTON, Aug. 14. VP) Union officials threatening a possible nationwide railroad strike of trainmen and conductors said tonight they had reluctantly agreed to continue White House peace conferences.

Pres. W. P. Kennedy of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen and Pres. R.

O. Hughes of the Order of Railway Conductors said they will meet again tomorrow with John R. Steelman, assistant to President Truman, at 1 p.m. The two union leaders had gone to the White House tonight intending to ask President Truman again to seize the railroads to prevent a strike. Kennedy said however that they resumed talks with Steelman and did not see Truman, or formally ask for seizure.

The unions had re quested seizure on Aug. 4. Kennedy said that if the talks with steelman become bogged down, the unions then will again ask seizure. Kennedy indicated that tomorrow may be a crucial day for union action, saying: "Unless we make some progress it looks like we will be at the end of our rope." The controversy centers on the 40-hour week. It involves some 000 members of the trainmen and conductors unions.

The unions are seeking a 40-hour week without loss of pay for workers in yard service, who have been working a 48-hour week. WALSH TO CALL UP POSTAL BILL Police Locate Politicking Solon; Pledges Return To Override Slash GREEN BAY, Aug. 14. (JP) Rep. John Walsh, (D-Ind) tonight said that "God willing, I will be on the floor in Washington at noon tomorrow" to call up a con troversial bill to restore twice-a day home mail delivery.

The object of a three-state police alarm, Walsh was located by the Associated Press at his hotel here, where he is to appear on a radio program tomorrow night. "I also will be in Green Bay tomorrow night to appear on the program," Walsh said. Asked if both appearances did not involve considerable travel, Walsh said, "I'm, going to make them." Bill in Peril The police alarm went out be cause backers of the bill were anxious to know of his whereabouts and whether he could make it back to Washington in time to call up the bill. If he doesn't, the bill will be tossed aside. The measure would restore the broad postal service cuts of last spring.

Today's snafu developed this way; Walsh and others recently got up a petition to force the bill to the house floor. It was then in a rules committee pigeon-hole. When (Continued on Page Column 2.) Mary's Bodily Be Included in VATICAN CITY, Aug. 14. VP) Pope Pius has called a secret consistory to make belief in the bodily assumption of the Virgin Mary into Heaven a dogma of the Catholic church, It was announced today.

The dogma will be the first added to the doctrine of the church in 80 years. The last was that of the in fallibility of the pope, declared by the Vatican council July 18, 1870, and subsequently proclaimed by the then pontiff, Pius IX. L'Osservatore Romano," Vatican City newspaper, made the an nouncement on the eve of the Feast of the Assumption Aug. 15 which has been observed by Catholics for centuries. L'Osservatore Romano said the secret consistory of cardinals has been called for Oct.

30, and that Pope Pius will proclaim the dogma on Nov. 1 on the closing day of an international Marian Congress In Rome. Thousands devoted especially to the Virgin Mary, Mother of Jesus, then will be assembled from all parts of the world for one of the the central front where the Reds have massed 60,000 men for an all N. KOREA GIVEN BLASTING BY AF B-29V Drop 23,000 High Explosive Bombs Upon 5 Main Red Areas TOKYO, Tuesday, Aug. 15.

Wh Superfortress bombers dropped more than 23,000 high-explosive bombs on North Korean objectives in a month, a U.S. Far East Air Force summary reported today.

(P) The senate finance committee instructed its staff today to prepare proposals for an excess profits tax on corp orations in 1951, and to explore the possibilities of a national retail sales tax and a tr ansae-1 tions levy.

Moreover, in a broad probing for new revenue, the tax-framing group told its staff to study the possible extension of an excess profits tax levy to individuals and partnerships. It voted to make an excess profits tax a part of President Truman's $5,000,000,000 tax boost to help meet the suddenly expanded defense load. Not Commitment Committeemen said they did not regard the studies ordered as in any way a commitment for later ap proval of sales taxes, transaction taxes or for excess profits levies on individuals and partnerships, But as to corporations Senator Hoey (D-NC) said the committee's Instructions for preparation of ex cess profits tax plans in his opin ion "gives notice to all corpora tions that in all probability an ex cess profits tax will be enacted next year effective Jan. 1, 1951." I think," Hoey said, "the com mittee is for an excess profits tax on corporations, but decided not to include it in the present tax bilL" Exploration Efforts There was no indication from committee members on what might ne developed in the nature of an excess profits tax on individuals and partnerships. One committee spokesman said the efforts in this direction now are merely "explor atory." ty The committee weighed the va rious forms of taxation as it neared final action on President Truman's $5,000,000,000 tax boosting plan to help pay for American rearmament and fight inflation.

It already has approved as a part of the measure the President's pro posals for an increase of almost $3,000,000,000 a year in individual income taxes and a $1,500,000,000 Doost for corporations. An excess profits tax would be intended to prevent profiteering on me preparedness effort and pro vide revenue to help pay for it. FOUR MEN DEAD IN PLANE CRASH Crippled B-29 Falls Near Cars well Base; Eight Crewmen Jump Free FORT WORTH, Aug. 14 VP) A crippled B-29 bomber crashed and burned in a field about two miles north of Carswell air force base today, killing four crewmen. Eight crewmen got away with minor injuries as the four-engined bomber struck the field and slith ered almost half a mile, stopping just short of a cluster of houses The fliers tumbled from the Su perfortress as it plowed crazily along the ground.

Three charred bodies were re moved from the nose section of the plane and one from the center section. Barksdale AFB Ship The bomber was from Barksdale air force base, near Shreveport, La. It apparently was trying to land at Carswell. Mrs. A.

L. Cronk of Lake Worth village said she and her husband took two. of the surviving crew men to the Carswell base hospital in their car. Both were dazed but one was able to talk. "I couldn't pull it up, I couldn't pull it up," he kept repeating.

She didnt learn the fliers' names. Witnesses said something ap peared wrong with the ship's land ing gear and the crafjt apparently went out of contrtol while the pilot was attempting to land at Cars well. Crash trucks were out on Cars- well field while the bomber ap proached. One witness said two gas tanks were jettisoned from the bomber as It passed over Lake worth, near the air base. Bomb Bay Open The bomb bay doors were still down at the moment of impact.

One whole wing of the bomber was sheared off as the plane slithered along the ground. Several persons who saw the ship reported that the nose wheel and one of the main 'wheels were down when the bomber approached Carswell field for a landing. But they said the other main wheel was only partly down. Just before the impact, the pilot raised both main wheels back into the plane. One witness said there was a burst of smoke after the plane hit.

(Continued on Page 9, Column 1.) One of the chief Russian advisers to the North Korean military leaders is believed to be Col. Gen. Terenty Shtykov, whose headquarters is near the Communist capital of Pyongyang. Observers believe much of the Reds' early success in the Korean fighting was due to Shtykov's advice. MEAT PACKERS' PROFITCBACKED Solons Vote to Guarantee Reasonable Margin Under, Price Control System WASHINGTON Aug.

14 VP) The senate today approved a proposal to guarantee a "reasonable margin of profit" to the meat-packing industry under any wage-price-ratioh control powers exercised by President Truman. The action came by voice vote, over-riding Republican protests that the meat industry was being singled out for special favoritism if controls come. A supporter of the proposal paid slater it was aimed at preventing meat Dlack marketing. Extended Coverage Also by voice vote, the senate batted down a demand by GOP leaders that a "reasonable profit" plan be extended across the board to cover all industries. Both actions came late in the day as the senate quickened debate on a 1950 home front mobilization act which would give Truman authority to control prices and wages and impose rationing when he deemed it necessary, along with credit and production controls.

Chairman Maybank (D-SC) of the senate banking committee sponsored the amendment assuring the meat industry an unspecified "reasonable" profit at the packer-wholesaler level. OPA Revived in Part The amendment revives a section of the old OPA law and makes certain that it covers meat wholesalers. Under the bid law, there was some confusion as to the wholesalers. Maybank did, not explain to the senate why he picked out the meat industry but it was reported that he had been asked to revive the old OPA section in the new control bill and had agreed to do so. Maybank later told a reporter the old OPA section covering meat prices did not go into effect until 1945 about a year before OPA meat price restrictions went out in the fall of 1946 and was "not! given a fair test." "If it had been given a chance, It would have prevented black mar keting in meat, Maybank said.

S. Korean Leader Foresees Victory TAEGU, Korea, Tuesday, Aug. 15. VP) South Korean President Syngman Rhee declared today "the world knows through bitter experience, besides the present war in Korea, that Soviet Russia is striving to conquer the world by force." Speaking on the second anniversary of the founding of the now-invaded Republic of Korea, the president said: "The invading enemy seemed to be winning at first but the day of their total defeat will soon be here and we shall complete unification of north and south under the Re public of Korea for all time to come." "The democratic world sees that leaving Korea to the aggressors will mean avowing continuation of aggression elsewhere in the So our friendly nations are fight ing with us immediately for Korea and indirectly for their countries."
