A cheering House of Commons greeted the Prime Minister’s sharp attack on the South Korean Presi dent for engineering the release of thousands of anti-Communist North Korean prisoners just as U. N. and Communist negotiators neared final agreement on a cease-fire. Applause and expressions of ap proval came even from the Social ist opposition benches. Churchill said it would appear only sensible to round up the re leased prisoners—as the Chinese and North Korean Reds have de manded—and said “it might be that reinforcements would be need ed for Korea in order to enforce a policy of peace and good faith.” ’ He did not elaborate on this statement. “It was hoped”’ Churchill said, “that by a settlement in Korea— as there would have been but for this (Rhee’s) act of bad faith— the United Nations and the United States would help to build up the ruined, shattered area of north Korea and by peaceful methods unite that country. “But we have not committed ourselves in any way to go for ward and conquer the whole area of Korea and place it under the authority of Syngman Rhee.” Churchill disclosed he had sent Rhee a stinging note protesting the South Korean leader’s action to p- set the truce negotiations and de claring the British “strongly con demn this treacherous violation of the authority of the U. N. Com mand to which the government of Korea had agreed in 1950.” Declaring the situation was “fraught with serious possibilities,” Churchill’s note said it was under stood the South Korean government in recent weeks had reaffirmed its position under the U. N. authority with assurances it would not take any unilateral action. “Unless there is a government in the Republic of Korea which will cooperate loyally with the United Nations Command,” Churchill said his note to Rhee warned, “the se curity of its people, as well as all the gains which have been made by the sacrifice of so many people, in cluding the gallant Republic of Ko rea Army, will be jeopardized.” Left Wing Laborite Jennie Lee said much world opinion was “baf fled by the failure of the United Nations intelligence service” to Rhee’s action. Price Support Loans On Cotton Extended Washington, June 22—The Agri culture Department today extend ed price support loans on 1952-crop cotton another 12 months to give to redeem and sell the cotton. Thus loans maturing July 31 this year will run to the same date next year. In the meantime, the grower may sell his equity in the cotton or re deem it by paying off his loan and sell it in the open market. Otherwise, cotton still under loan at the end of the expiration date next year will be purchased out right by the department. In the past, such cotton was placed in a pool and if any profits were made above the government’s investment on final disposition they were pro-rated among growers hav ing cotton in the pool. Terms of the proposed depart ment purchase at the end of the ex tended loan period weer not an nounced. Officials said, however, that if the cotton were worth more than the loan and charges at the time of department purchase, the grower-borrower probably would be paid the difference at that time. Otherwise, the grower would get nothing. Latest reports show that 2,312,648 bales frpm the 1952 crop of about 15,000,000 bales had been placed under price support loans. The department said that at pres ent prices, farmers should be able to dispose of some qualities of loan cotton at prices that would give them profits above Jthe loan and loan charges. Recipe For Good Tobacco Cheyenne, Wiyo.—A recipe for 13 pounds of chawin’ tobaccer turned up recently in an old diary. Here it is: “First select enough good tobax’O (in strength according to taste) to make 10 pounds after it is stemmed; cook one pound of good dried peaches well done, strain .the syrup from the peaches; melt one and a half pound of good licorice; don’t let boil—stir regularly; put in one hand full of common salt: use half gallon of water only; after it is well melted add the peach syrup to licorice and one-half pound of white sugar; after it is cdol add one-half pint of whiskey or brandy. , “Let your peaches boil down very low so the syrup will be tnick, not having but little over one-half gallon of dip after mixing. Now spread your tobacco very thin, sprinkle well with mixture, put more tobacco and sprin kle as before until you use all of your dip. “Now hang your tobacco on sticks and let dry, scatter it well or it will mold. Let it hang until the first damp spell. It will come in case, then twist or plug and prise it, if you like, in very stout box. “Now if you will be particular and follow the direction you have 13 pounds of tobacco (that will not cost you exceeding $1.75.” Soviet Relaxes Restrictions On Travel In Russia Moscow, June 22.—The Soviet gov ernment tonight told foreign resi dents in Russia—including Western diplomats—they can travel more freely about‘ the country.

Subscribe To The Chronicle “The Paper Everybody Reads” Extension of Excess S. Censorship Movements Hit Levy Held Needed i By Publisher Washington, June 22—Unless the administration gets a six-months extension of the excess profits tax, Secretary of the Treasury Hum- phery said tonight, it will be hard to grant a reduction in individual income taxes next January 1. Humphrey discussed the problem on a radio round table progam and said “a failure to extend the excess profits tax is a blow to all the tax payers of the country because it makes it that much harder to reach the time they can have a proper re duction themselves.” House leaders are reported study ing a compromise that would ex empt an estimated 30,000 corpora tions from payment of the tax. It was outlined by Majority Leader Haleck of Indiana, who said it would raise from $25,000 to $100,- 000 the minimum excess profits tax credit now allowed. This would mean that companies earning up to but not over $100,000 a year would not have to pay the tax. Colin Stam, head of the joint in ternal revenue committee, said the compromise would exempt about 30,000 firms now taxed. Their tax bill during the six months starting July 1, he estimated, would be about 60 million if the present law v/ere continued without change. Ashmore May Serve On Labor, Education Group Washington.—Rep. Robert Ash more of Greenville, the new con gressman from the Fourth South Carolina District, probably will serve on the Education and Labor committee. Ashmore said this was one choice from several vacancies on various committees offered to him.

Whittier, Calif., June 21. — The president of the American Book Publishers Council said today in at tacking censorship movements that** Black, also president of Double if Americans are “so -weak that we can’t tolerate hostile ideas, I sub mit that it is not the ideas but our own weakness which precipitates our downfall.” “In our democratic society, let us believe in freedom when cow ards would restrict'it,” Douglas M. Black of New York told the Ameri can Liberty Association’s second annual Joint Conference on Intel lectual Freedom. day and Company, New York, said censorship movements arise “be cause people fail to recognize that freedom of expression is in itself good.” But he urged publishers to use discretion in their choice of ma terial. “The fact that his will is free to choose what he will publish does not mean that it is all right to pub lish anything,” Black said.
