July 28 Lightning-like raids by 50 Federal agents resulted In 10 persons being held In $495,000 ball today, charged with membership In an International narcotics smuggling and counterfeiting ring. Federal authorities said it was the first time they had found counter-felting linked with Illicit traffic In narcotics. They also said the Italian end of the alleged 20-member International ring was headed by Charles "Lucky" Luciano, deported vice overlord.

Agents suspected, too, that there was a link between the ring and the Mafia, Italian black-hand society. Government officials conceded they could only estimate the tremendous profit garnered by the ring. They charged the underworld market value ten times that of the legitimate wholesale price of heroin smuggled Into the country by the ring in three years was M.

Tilo Says Russia Afraid Of Poland Appeals To Poles To Throw Off Yoke BELGRADE, Yugoslavia.

July 28 Premier Marshal Tito in a bristling anti-Soviet speech yesterday appealed to Poland to follow Yugoslavia's road to independent Communism. He said Russia is a-fraid her Polish satellite may try it. The Yugoslav ruler spoke at a mass meeting before about 100,000 people in the village of Kniezpolje in the republic of Bosnia-Hercego-vlna which celebrated the tenth anniversary of its partisan uprising a-gainst Axis invaders. Text of the address was not released until late today. Tito spoke of the dangers of invasion from Yugoslavia's Eastern European neighbors with the support of Russia and warned: "The defeat of Yugoslavia would be a defeat for Europe." He said that was the reason the Western powers have been furnishing material aid to this country.

He said it was Russia's fear of revolt In Poland that prompted Soviet Deputy Prime Minister V. M. Molotov to go there recently, with hints of Soviet military might to threaten the people "those of Poland and those of Yugoslavia." Molotov in his Warsaw speech called oh the Yugoslavs to overthrow the "Titolst Fascist regime." Tito declared Molotov's words were directed, on the surface, at Yugoslavia in calling for the overthrow of the present government, but in reality they were intended for the Polish people as a warning not to throw off the Russian yoke as the Yugoslavs have done. Tito said the Poles never have and never could have an affection for Russia because of the bitter lessons they had learned. the armistice city at 10:34 a.m.

(6:35 p.m. Saturday, CST) after a 10 minute helicopter trip from the truca camp. The crucial 13th session of th truce talks got underway on schedule at 11 a.m. After an hour and 50 minutes the talks were recessed until 3 p.m. The official delegation was preceded by the usual motor convoy of service personnel and correspondents.

There was no indication t.hfc either side would budge from its stand on the desired location of a demarcation line across the nenin- sula, one of the major points neces sary ior a cease-iire agreement. The crucial nature of the head-on clash was emphasized when President Truman said in a De troit speech: "We do not yet know whether the Communists reallv desire near in Korea or whether they are sim ply trying to gain by negotiations what they have not been able to gain by conquest." From the UN delegates, headed by Vice Adm. Charles Turner Joy, came the disclosure that the critical debate developed in "an atmosphere of cool military formality. There was no varnishing of the situation in a UN communique-which said "little progress" was made. The issue Is clear cut.

At the outset of the conference the Red delegates, headed by North Korean General Nam proposed a buffer zone running six miles north and six miles south of tha 38th parallel. The Allied delegates have shown unshakeable firmness that the line oi demarcation shall run roughly along the piesent battlefront extending from 35 miles above the parallel in the East to slightly below it in the West. A pull back from these positions to the area proposed by the Communists would leave the UN troops with practically no natural defenses. Adm. Joy restated the Allied position Saturday.

A UN briefing officer. Brig. Gen. William F. Nuckols.

said Nam II rejected the Allied proposal in an emnhatic statement and ae-ain urged the Red plan. Gen. Nuckols said both sides "Just about talked themselves out." He would make no predictions as to What micht hannen at Sun. day's 13th not even to the exieni or -guessing" hich side might open the meeting. Nuckols described Joy's manner of speaking as "impersonal, thorough and not at all emotional." But his notes showed Nam II "drums on the table, fidgets and shows other signs of inattention which normally he keeps pretty well under control." International News Service cor-respondent Don Dixon reported direct from Kaesong that snatches of the debate could be heard outside the conference room and indicated the Reds raised the issue of Allied sea and air power.

Possibility that the Communists are also demanding a neutral sea zone off Korea's coast was indicated by presence of an unidentified North Korean naval captain. He first appeared at the talks Friday. Truman Doubts Peace Intentions Of Soviets War-Like Moves Noted In Speech DETROIT, July 28 Presi-dent Truman today gravely warned the American people to get ready for "any emergency" as he laid down a bitter, detailed indictment of Russia's build up for war round the world." He cited war-like moves in Bulgaria, Rumania, Hungary and the Russian provinces as well as in North Korea and even questioned whether the Communists "really desired in that battle-rav. aged area despite their negotia-tions. Mr.

Truman spoke to a holiday throng in Cadillac Square after a flight from Washington to Join In Detroit's 250th birthday celebration. Police Supt. Edward Morgan estimated the crowd at 60,000. The President didn't mention General Douglas MacArthur, Republican Senators Taft (Ohio) and McCarthy or other administration critics by name, but he accused opponents of "trying to stir up trouble and suspicion between the people and their government." "They are using the smear and the big lie for personal publicity and partisian advantage, heedless of the damage they do their country." he charged. "Never, not even in the bitterest political campaigns have I seen such a flocd of lies and slander as is now pouring forth over the country." Referring to MacArthur's Boston charge that the administration has no policy, the President declared "this country is on the right track In foreign affairs." KOREA Ch.pv II I MATUTt MH.IS Ridgway's instructions were des cribed as covering a wide range of possible moves and counter moves for use as negotiations developed.

But in the State Department there was strong belief today that long. hard sessions around the conference table will now have to precede any really significant break in the sit uation. Assistant Secretary of Stat Dean Rusk, renorterilv holdinc this view. prepared today to leave on a week's vacation uus weenena. Aiaes saia that he would be back a week from Monday.

Rusk has been Secretary of State Acheson's chief adviser for the Kae-song meetings. Ever since the Russians put forward a month ago their proposal for efforts to end the Korean fighting. Rusk has worked seven days a week in consultation with the White House and defense leaders on arrangements for the negotiations and on the orders to be given Ridgway. Although the original Russian suggestion and the attitude of the United States and its U.N. allies is that the present talks are concerned with strictly military and non-political matters, there is considerable SUSDicion here that the Communist will make political gains where they can.

inis is one or tne considerations behind the UJS. attitude toward a buffer zone. The Communist position restated at Kaesong last night (Washington time), is that the zone must be set up along the line of the 38th parallel which divided North and South Korea before the war. By this maneuver the Reds are trying to regain the political status quo. something they were unable to achieve by military means.

American officials do not rule out the possibility that in the political talks which follow the military talks (assuming the armistice Is agreed upon) the 38th parallel might once a-gain have to be made a boundary line, although there is no great enthusiasm for that here.

July 28 iFt Averell Harriman gave the British a long talk today on why they should snap up Iran's offer to confer again over their explosive oil dispute.

There were signs that President Truman's special envoy made some After two and a half hours in conference with Prime Minister Attlee and top ministers of the British Government. Harriman e-merged smiling from No. 10 Downing street, the Prime Minister's residence. Atlee, too. looked pleased and a crowd of several hundred sightseers jammed into the narrow street applauded as the two shook hands.

Harriman made the long flight from Iran last night to tell the British just where things stand In the deadlocked crisis. Iran's offer to renew talks, broken off once last month after a single meeting, has not been disclosed fully, and the British apparently considered It vague. Harriman came for the face-to-face talks hoping to learn just why the British have not accepted the Iranian offer on the billion dollar Anglo-Iranian Oil Company which Iran has nationalized. The British Government owns more than half the stock. Right after the talks with Harriman.

a spokesman for the Prime Minister said the exchange had been "useful and fruitful." He added that "various points in connection with Mr. Harriman's discussion with the Iranian government were elucidated." Mississippi's 4-H clubs were pledged another 8100.000 wlth.whlch to complete their summer camp sites by Lt. Gov. Sam Lumpkin In a speech at Corinth. "We have three two week summer training schools now operating," he said.

"They are doing a wonderful work. I understand an other $100,000 Is needed to om plete these camps and If I am elected I am going to recommend to the legislature that sum be made available." Lumpkin said he was interested in the program "because I am young enough to expect to live to see it produce real benefits for the state." There will be no tampering with the State Game and Fish Commission if Ross Barnett wins the elec- tion. He promised that in a speech at Kosciusko. I "I will oppose anv effort to I merge or consolidate the State Game and Fish Commission with I any other state agency," he de clared. Increased conservation work and higher wardens' salaries also were proposed by the Jackson candidate.

Continuing to plug for his 23 point "practical plan of progress" Barnett said "wise and aggressive use of the tax dollar is the sole solution to the state's needs." He claimed he could save 25 cents out of every tax dollar being spent on administrative expenses and would turn it to increasing old age allowances, teacher salaries and meeting other needs. The campaign's only woman candidate, attractive Mrs. Mary Cain of Summit, told a home-county rally at Osyka that "treasuries of the state and nation are being used as sources of campaign funds."

The system was approved at the first legislative session of White's administration.
