EDITORS NOTE: Bern Price is a former Marine combat officer and a former combat correspondent in Korea, but he had personal trouble with the Army's new T44 rifle. Here is his story. By BEM PRICE ABERDEEN. Md. UV-For 10 years the Army tested its new T44 rifle without accident or incident and then I came along.

I test-fired the light and heavy models of the new weapon and it is one sweet rifle at the Army proving ground here late yesterday and promptly managed to wound myself-slightly in a freak accident. There are two versions of the T44 and each Is an answer to an 'infantryman's prayer. These weapons, which carry 20 rounds in a box clip, are the superior answer to the Russian-made burp guns which beat out our brains on night patrols in Korea' where the range was short nd the object, at least, was to make the other guy keep his head down. They are also the answer to the soldier's demand for a weapon which, while laying down a lot of lead, can deliver single shot aimed fire. Tailored Firepower There is one beautiful characteristic of these weapons.

There is a setting device on each to determine whether the rifle will function semiautomatically or as a full automatic weapon at the theoretical rate of 800 rounds per minute.

Much has beenjnade of the fact that the T44 is lighter than the Garand. Actually when equipped with sling and full magazine the Ml weighs 10li pounds, the T44 104 pounds.

This brings me around to how atist Eugene O'Neill has won his fourth Pulitzer Prize and Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass) has won the first ever bestowed on a member of Congress, The awards were among 14 Pulitzer Prizes in letters, journalism and music announced yesterday by the trustees of Columbia University. O'Neill received the drama award posthumously for his autobiographical play "Long Day's Journey Into Night" It is a current Broadway hit. The biography prize went to Kennedy, 39-year-old Massachusetts Democrat, for his "Profiles in Courage." The book is a study of political integrity as exemplified by selected U.

S. politicians, some famed and some obscure. "I'm delighted more than delighted," said Kennedy when told of the award. Mrs. Carlotta Monterey O'Neill, widow of the playwright, said she now knows she "did the right thing" in violating a 25-year embargo on "Journey." She authorized production of the drama here last year.

O'Neill wrote the play in 1941 but he said he did not want, it staged in the United States until 25 years after his death. He died in 1953. Only poet Robert Frost and the late playwright-biographer Robert Sherwood, have also won four Pulitzer Prizes in the 40-year history of the awards. O'Neill previously won Pulitzer Prizes for "Beyond the Horizon" (1920), "Anna Christie" (1922) and "Strange Interlude" (1928). No fiction award was made this year.

On two points at issue involving charges that the embattled teamsters organization has engaged in unfair labor practices against its own workers, the high tribunal 1. Unanimously, that labor unions are employers within the meaning of the Taft-Hartley Act, and 2.

By a 5-4 division, that the National Labor Relations Board must act on charges of unfair labor practices brought against a union. The case before the Supreme Court originated with the Office Employes International Union, Local No. 11 of Portland, Ore. That union complained to me NLRB that the teamsters there had unfairly discouraged membership "jy teamsters employes in the office employes union and that the teamsters had fired one of its employes who had been active in behalf of office employes. The NLRB said the case was the first in its history of unfair labor charges being brought by one union against another.

But the board ruled it lacked authority to act on the complaint. The board the Teamsters Union is a nonprofit organization and that the NLRB can tafke jurisdiction over such organizations only in exceptional circumstances and in connection with purely commercial activities.
