Joint Chiefs of Staff, said in a radio broadcast that he still expects the negotiators to reach a truce agreement.) The most serious violation yet of Kaesong's neutralitythe ambushing of a Communist military police patrol Sundaybrought an angry protest from Nam 11. The incident occurred while a 10-man Communist patrol was at the village of Songong, 1,200 yards southwest Pan Mun Jom and 1,000 yards within the agreed five-mile neutral radius around Kaesong. After wounding the platoon leader, Nam Il said, the armed of more than 30 men fired two shots into his forehead to kill him. Red Officers Aid Probe The UN command retorted in an interim report that an investigation by UN and Communist liaison officers "failed completely" to identify the armed band as belonging to any UN command formation. "Preliminary questioning of witnesses," the statement said, "has disclosed that many of the assailants were dressed in clothes and did not wear steel helmets or other military garb.

"Some witnesses stated that a great number of the participants were civilians, who may be partisans of either side intent on sabotaging the efforts of the delegations to arrive at a satisfactory armistice agreement." The Communists turned the funeral of the patrol leader into a propaganda display during the subcommittee meeting in Kaesong.

Fulbright Calls GOP's Mac Report Political' Continued from Page Massachusetts Republicans, reported they could not subscribe completely to the findings of their G. O.

P. colleagues. Saltonstall issued a statement accusing Mr. Truman of "lack of judgment and foresight" in firing MacArthur, but abstaining from much of the severe criticism on U. S.

Far Eastern policy meted out in the eightman report. The G. O. P. report said that anything less than a complete victory for the United Nations forces in Korea would be a "delusion" and afford only a "Munich-like" respite from combat.

"This much is clear," the report said, "the Truman Administration had no plan to win. (In Korea) it offered the vague concept of limiting the war's area while permitting unlimited casualties. The immoral, un-Christion idea of killing Chinese until 1 the Moscow puppets sue for peace is unacceptable." Secretary of State Dean Acheson was blamed for "vacilations and equivocations, the net result of which has been to encourage Communist aggression." Defense Secretary George C. Marshall was held responsible for "a fatal coalition" policy of trying to bring the Communists and Nationalists together in China. 3,000,000 Aliens Seen Peril to U.

S. Continued from Page 1 illegal entry into this country. Reports Findings On the basis of its hearings, the "task force" said, it has come to the following conclusions: 1. "There is a tremendous and progressively increasing number of cases of illegal aliens in the United States, including stowaways, deserting seaman and smuggled aliens. These cases include militant Communists and a number of members of the criminal gang of the notorious Sicilian bandit chief, Salvatore Giuliano." 2.

There are an estimated 250,000 illegal aliens in the New York City area alone, but prior to the "task force's" hearings, the Immigration Service prohibited its investigators from rounding up any illegal aliens unless a formal complaint was filed against them. 3. Some 500,000 illegal aliens trying to get into the United States are arrested on the Mexican border every year. McCarran said that each year "untold numbers of aliens sneak into this country and loose themselves in the mass populations of our larger cities." "Among them," he said, "are bandits and other, criminals militant Communists, or Sicilian whose records bar them from legal entry.

It sent a copy of its report to each employe of the immigration service with a request that these employes notify Congress of any laxity on this issue. 4. The New York office. acting on orders of the Justice Department, "arbitrarily closed out" a backlog of from 50.000 to 70,000 illegal alien cases "with only cursory examination." 5.

Dr. John Paul Jones, pastor of the Union Church of Bay Ridge, had taken issue today with Cardinal Spellman over the prelate's recent announcement that three Roman Catholic colleges for men in the Archdiocese of New York would accept as students any West Point cadets who might apply after having been dismissed at the Point for violating the honor code.

The Cardinal, citing that "to is human, to forgive said that the presidents of Fordham University and Manhattan and Iona Colleges had agreed to accept the cadets. Dr. Jones said: "Forgiveness is not easy or simple." He added that "repentance is the condition without which forgiveness is of no benefit, if, indeed, possible."
