parity, as in a bill passed in the
closing days of Congress. It prob-

Gen. Collins Hints
U. S. Ready To Use
A-Weapon In Korea
Seoul, Wednesday, July 16.—The
U. S. Army chief of staff implied
strongly Tuesday the Allies are
ready to use an atomic weapon, if
0ver necessary, to prevent the Reds
from driving them out of Korea.
Gen. J. Lawton Collins told a
news conference in Tokyo the Un
ited Nations Command was pre
pared “to use anything except ger m
warfare,” but only if the Com
munists seriously threatened Allied
forces. He indicated he did not con
sider the present bittlefront stale
mate such a threat.
Except for strikes by Allied
fighter-bombers on Wlestern Front
positions and nearly Pyongyang,
the war was relatively quiet. The
Eighth Army reported only minhr
patrol skirmishes.

Pony Leaguers Go To Charleston’
The Clinton all-star Pony Lea-

boys: Russell Trammell, Dennis Ben

Dobbins, Millard Daniel, Benji Tim
mons, Bobby Hanna, Mac Sweet, Ray
Farmer, Brock Reaves, Dwight Tuck-
the Dixie walkout, have been try- j
ing for a quiet compromise.
But Francis Biddle, chairman of
the politically potent Americans for |
Democratic Action, said ‘the heat
is certainly not off” the Democrats
because the Republicans adopted a
noncommittal civil rights plank.'
“The ADA will fight for 1948-
plus,” Biddle said.
The 1948 plank advocated federal;

where an estimated 600 North Ko-
hold on an Eastern Front hill
reans were killed or wounded in
bitter fighting that began last
Thursday. There were no attacks
on the position Tuesday.
The Fifth Air Force reported a
Iqcomotive repair shop and a ce
ment plant near the Korean Com
munist capital of Pyongyang were
blasted Tuesday. Two other build
ings were bombed. It was a follow
up raid to the massive air strikes
against military targets in and
near Pyongyang Friday.
U. S. Marine and other Fifth Air
Force pilots reported destroying 15
Communist bunkers and six gun
emplacements on the Western
Front. An overcast hampered raids
elsewhere in North Korea.
Collins’ news conference in Tok
yo amplified somewhat his remarks
in Seoul the day before. He had
said previously the U. N. Command
was prepared to use “other means”
but only “ir. a pinch.”
The chief of staff said that al
though atomic artillery had been
tested it was not ready for opera
tional use because of “two or three
technical reasons.”- But he added
it would be ready for the battle
field “within a few years.”
Referring to the recent heavy
Allied air raids on North Korean
hydroelctetfic plants and other big
installations, Collins said the Reds
are in for several stronger air blows
if they “insist on prolonging the
war.

Work is man's great func
tion He is nothing, he can do
nothing, he can achieve noth
ing. fulfill nothing, without
working.
Someone has wisely said:
“The greatest asset of any na
tion is the spirit of its pepple,
and the greatest danger that
can menace any nation is the
breakdown of that spirit—the
will to win and the courage to
work.”
Today the hope of this coun-
try and the world is WORK.
When we get back into full pro
duction. with every shoulder to
the wheel, all determined to
give our utmost in effort—our
fear of inflation, as well as for
the future of our nation and
ourselves will come to an end.
The Capital Life has been
built on co-operative work
among its employees and satis
factory service to its policy-
holders. We have thus grown
in assets and strength to the
point where w’e can now offer
most for your insurance dollar.
For instance, did you know that
oup policies carry a waiver of
