Superforts from Japan and Okinawa pounded a prime Red Korean chemical plant on the Manchurian frontier for 22 hours early today and left %t in flaming ruin. Forty - eight Superforts made their runs single file on the tar- get through a web of searchlight beams and blossoming clusters of antiaircraft fire. Tokyo headquarters said all planes returned to their bases. * * * THE FAR EAST Air Forces sald B-29& hit the sprawling Namsam plant in Northwest Korea, 27 miles northeast of Antung, for the first time in the war. About 400 tons of high explosives were dumped on the target. Civilians had been given an Allied warning to flee 4 the area. Communist MIGs rose to make a few non-firing passes at 'the American bombers, fliers said. However, Communist antiair- craft fire from both the Korean and the Manchurian sides of the Yalu River was described as thick. On the ground,- Communist ar- tillery thundered as never before, pouring 47,312 rounds of mortars and shells yesterday on Allied po- sitions across the front. * * * A HIGHLY placed Eighth Army officer told AP correspondent Rob- ert Tuckman that Allied sources believe there are 5,000 to 6,000 Rus- sian troops in North Korea partic- ipating in the war against the United Nations, Earlier estimates of 10,000 Russians were revised downward, he said. The officer, who asked not to be identified, said that while the Russians were not near the bat- tle line where they would be in danger of cap:to re, they were serving in a "support capacity', as technicians, advisors and probably as crews for modern radar . controlled antiaircraft guns. Also yesterday, at U. S. Eighth Army Headquarters, a spokesman for Gen. James A. Van Fleet said nothing was known there about reports the Eighth Army Com- mander would be replaced. IFC Passes New Junior Group Plan The Interfraternity Council house president's assembly voted last night to establish a junior IFC for this fall's pledge classes on a one semester trial basis. According to the bill's sponsor, Alpha Delta Phi president Bob Loeblein, '53, the purpose of the council would be to coordinate common pledge activities and to get more men interested in the regular IFC. UNDER THE new proposal, IFC vice-president Sandy Robertson, '53BAd., will serve as the group's chairman with IFC committee chairmen acting as executive ad- visors to the council. The plan further provides for the junior IFC officers, who will be elected at the end of the fall semester, to present a recom- mendation concerning the body's permanent status to the first spring semester meeting of the house president's assembly. Dick Manchee, '54E, co-chair- } man of the IFC-Panhel Counsel- ing and Information Service, also presented a report on the group's study of Acacia's discriminatory clause situation. * * * , MANCHEE SAID that question- naires had been sent to all Acacia chapters last June inquiring as to chapter and campus attitudes about bias clauses. Although only 32 percent of the chapters re- plied, he said the results had in- formed Acacia's delegate to the national convention of the opin- ions he would expect to find there.

HATCHER ADDRESSES HILL GATHERING *V soB l r e dH* * * l New Version of Bible Presented at Hill 4> The Revised Standard Version of the Holy Bible was presented to approximately 3,000 people last night in an impressive ceremony in Hill Auditorium. University President Harlan H. Hatcher gave' the main address, during which he commended Le- roy Waterman, professor emeritus of Semantics for his part in the translation. Death Takes Former 'U' Official at 78 John C. Christensen, controller and assistant secretary emeritus of the University, died at 11:50 a.m. yesterday at St. Joseph's Mer- cy Hospital of cerebral thrombosis. Christensen, 78 years old, came to the University in 1914 as assist- ant secretary, serving until 1931 when he was named controller, a position he held until he retired in 1944. Previous to coming to Michi- gan, he worked for Kansas State Agriculture College and the Carnegie Institute of Technolo- gy. Christensen also held appoint- ments with the U.S. Bureau of Ed- ucation, General Education Board for colleges' accounting surveys, National Commission on Standard Reports for the Institutions of Higher Education, and the Ameri- can Council on Education. Christensen received his bache- lor of science degree from Kan- sas State Agriculture College and attended the University of Kan- sas as a graduate student. The author of various addresses published in pamphlets, Christen- sen was associate editor of the Journal of Higher Education. THE KING JAMES Bible, Pres. Hatcher said, was a product of two events, those being the desire which arose during the Reforma- tion to get the Bible translated in the vernacular, and the language revival of the Elizabethan writers. The basis for the King James Bible was the translation by Tyn- dale made in 1525. Today's version is 90 per cent the same in context as that first translation he pointed out. Many discoveries that have thrown new light on the earliest manuscripts have been found so that the material for the new version are documents dating to the third and fourth centuries after Christ, the president said. He went on to explain that '"the work of a generation of scholars has brought new meaning to 'the often quoted passages." The liter- ary form in the Old Testament has been re-established, he stated. The Hebrew poems found in the book Publications Petitions Due Today is the deadline for sub- mitting petitions for the vacan- cy on the Board in Control of Stu- dent Publications. So far only two petitions have been received by SL president Howard Willens '53. All interested students should take their petitions, by 5:00 p.m. today to the SL Bldg., 512-S. State St. The principle function of the board is to serve in an advisory capacity for financial and techni- cal matters concerning the four student publications: The Michi- gan Daily, The Gargoyle, Michi- ganensian, and Generation. Selections for the vacancy will be made by the SL cabinet and three members of the board. of Genesis call to the imagination to comprehend their meanings. Among the private translations of the past century, Pres. Hatcher was most impressed with the Good- speed translation because of the different language it uses. Good- speed explained that his criteria for terminology was present usage of the language. During the program, five Bibles were presented to outstanding local church people:Prof. Donald Katz, chairman of the chemical engi- neering department; Mrs. Arthur Brandon, wife of the director of University relations; Debra Town- sand, '56; Mrs. Clara Parker and Douglas Williams of the Dunbar Center. Meanwhile, protestant churches throughout the nation united last night for a celebration of the new Bible. Special services were called in 3,400 towns and cities across the country. The National Council of Churches of Christ in the U. S. A. estimated an attendance totaling more than two million from 150 denominations. "The occasion points ultimately to what should prove to be the greatest development of the cen- tury for all Christendom," said a Yale University Divinity School professor. U N May Urge Korean Truce, UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. () - The United States is discussing with several close allies a double- barreled plan for the U.N. Assem- bly to urge the Communists to ac- cept immediately an armistice in Korea or risk a wider U.N. embar- go and condemnation. A diplomatic source in close touch with the situation said yes- terday the Americans are consid- ering this course in the Assembly opening Oct. 14: 1.Secretary of State Acheson would put before the . Assembly a resolution by which the Assemr bly would express its approval of the U.N. proposals at Panmunjom, would urge the Communist Chi- nese and North Koreans to ac- cept them. 2. The Communists would be given a reasonable time to an- swer, perhaps after the U.S. pres- idential election. If they do not answer or if they reject the ap- peal, the Americans want the As- sembly to approve a resolution pro- viding for stronger embargoes against Communist China and North Korea. Recorded Speech Heard by YP's A recorded sneech by W. E. B. House Calls CIA Head To Testify WASHINGTON (Ao)-House un- American Activities Committee decided yesterday to call Gen.1 Walter Bedell Smith for testimony on what he knows about Commu- nist infiltration in government agencies. The ainouncement came just after Smith, chief of the super secret Central Intelligence Agen- cy, had backed a step further away from his statement that he believes Reds have penetrated ev- ery American security agency in- cluding his own CIA. * * * THE GENERAL, elaborating on his original remarks, said merely that it was necessary to "assume" such a thing has happened. At the same time Republicans took up the testimony as a ma- jor campaign issue. A statement by Chairman John S. Wood (D-Ga) of the House committee, issued in Los Angeles, said: "The committee voted unani- mously to subpoena Gen. -Walter Bedell Smith, requiring him to ap- pear before it Oct. 13, 1952, in Philadelphia . . . to give the com- mittee the benefit of any informa'- tion of Communist infiltration into agencies of the government of the United States, especially his own." In a question-and-answer ses- sion with newsmen Smith made a comment that Communists have been pretty thoroughly eradicat- ed in government." National Roundup By The Associated Press NEW YORK - Earl Browder, once America's top Communist, and his Russian-born wife were suddenly and quietly seized yes- terday by the FBI. They were accused of lying about Mrs. Browder's Communist back- ground in 1949 while she was seek- ing 'American citizenship. WASHINGTON-Virtually all the Southern soft coal industry came to terms yesterday with John L. Lewis and the few hold- outs were given "a day or two" exemption from strike action by the United Mine Workers. Acceptance of the union's terms prevented a general strike in Dixie mines. The strike had been set for today, when the old contract ends. WASHINGTON-Rent control ended at miidnight last night ex- cept in cities and towns which have asked to keep the curbs an- other seven months and those list- ed as critical defense housing areas. Book Sales SL cash registers rang up a record total of $3310 in sales yesterday as the Student Book Exchange officially closed. The major problem confront- ing the exchange this year was not lack of customers but lack of books. Sales soared $400 over last semester. Students are urged to pick up. all unclaimed checks and books from 3 to 5 p.m. today through Friday at the SL Building, ac- cording to book exchange offi- cials. All unclaimed books will become the property of SL. Adlai Cites CIA Head's Testimony Backs Impartial SecurityAgency SPRINGFIELD, Ill.-({k)-Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson yesterday is- sued a statement obviously aimed at preventing Gen. Dwight D. Eisensower from making any poli- tical capital out of Walter Bedell Smith's assertion that he assumes Communists have penetrated every U. S. Security agency. Smith, chief of the super-secret Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) so testified Monday on a Washing- ton deposition hearing in the two million tiollar libel-slander suit filed by Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy (R-Wis.) against Sen. William Benton (D-Conn.). STEVENSON,. the Democratic presidential, nominee, said the end result of Smith's testimony-and of an amplifying statement Smith put out later-it to "make ludi- crous the claim of Republicans" that the task of nabbing any Com- munists in government "is a simple job which can be done easily if it is turned over to them" the Repub- licans. The governor's statement said: "What this episode really shows is that the problems of fighting Communist penetration in gov- erment is a job for our secur- ity agencies anda job that never ends" The Illinois governor said a highly professional, non-political intelligence agency is indispen- sable to the government, whether a Republican or a Democrat is president. Gov. Stevenson will make a ma- jor political address over the Col- umbia Broadcasting System tele- vision network from Detroit on Oct. 7, CBS announced yesterday. SDA Votes Adlai Support In its first meeting of the fall semester last night the Students for Democratic Action voted al- most unanimously to endorse and actively support the chief Demo- cratic candidates, Adlai Stevenson and Sen. John. Sparkman. The national SDA convention held earlier this month voted to endorse the Den&ocratic national candidates, which the local SDA formally approved. - As yet the organization has not endorsed any of the local or state candidates of either party. Plans were made to cooperate and actively work with the Democratic party and the Vol- unteers for Stevenson in cam- paigning. In an account of the national convention it was reported that Ted Friedman, '53, president of the club, was elected to the na- tional board of SDA.

Sallade is arranging a special automobile caravan which will leave local Republican headquar- ters at 2:30 p.m. today.

Eisenhower swept into the Southern states for the thiid time yesterday and stirred wave after wave of applause when he said of the Truman regime: "We have an administration which may go down in history as the scandal-a-day administra- tion." A CROWD estimated by Colum- bia Police Chief L. J. Campbell at. "nearly 50,000" massed in front of the white pillared state capitol to hear Eisenhower tear into the Democrats on a wide front of cam- paign issues. He' opened his speech by not- ing - and denying - what he said are a series of rumors about his intentions if elected. He said a whispering campaign has begun to the effect that, if elected, he will close and other- wise curtail military installations- in the Southern states. Another re- port, he said, is that he will cut soldiers' and sailors' pay. ,' * * EISENHQWER said the rumors were'totally false. "Having been a soldier all my life, it is foolish to think I would do . anything to weaken the security of the United States." Eisenhower hammered hard on the theme of misconduct in public office. He said that the attitude of people involved is "as bad or worse than the scan- dals themselves." While he repeated his policy for a farm program, including 90 per cent parity on basic commodities, the general disavowed any connec- tion with the Brannan plan. "I am sure of one thing," he said. "The Brannan Plan for the regimentation of American agri. culture was not cooked up among the farmers of South Carolina or any other state in the union." * * * Ike's Russian Policy Blasted By Truman ABOARD - TRUMAN TRAIN (IP) -President Truman char'ged yes, terday that Gen. Dwight D. Ei- senhower "did a great deal of harm" to the United States with his views on Russia immediately after the second World War. The President said the Republi- can presidential nominee "ought to be honest enough to admit his blunders about the Russians." Ei- senhower's views as commanding general in Europe, Truman said, left this country unaware of Rus- sia's threat to world peace. TRUMAN, carrying his whistle stop campaign on behalf of Gov. Adlai Stevenson across Montana used a rear platform talk at Havre to mount another barbed attack against the GOP standard bearer. Eisenhower headquarters at New York declined to comment. He declared that Eisenhower's "foresight was not nearly as good as his hindsight." "After the war, while he- was still commanding general of our forces in Europe," Truman con- tinued, "he said he saw no reason why Russia and the United States would not remain the closest pos- sible friends." If Eisenhower had given the country "better advice in 1945," Truman said, "we wouldn't have had too much trouble in waking up the country to the danger of Communist imperialism in 1946 n5 A lA1 ,.-el I GAO, FIRES 20 MILES: Waps Lifted on Huge Long-ane Aom Gun CHIEF DISCIPLINARY -BODY: JointJudic Organization Outlined WASHINGTON -- (A) -- The Army has stripped the secrecy mantle from a huge gun made to shoot atomic shells at enemy troops on a battlefield 20 miles away. * * * , AT THE Aberdeen, Md., Proving Grounds the other day the Army showed off two of the guns to vis- itors to: 1.

And they de- clined to talk on that point. THE ARMY claims a number of advantages for the gun, includ- ing: It is dual-purpose, can shoot either conventional shells or atomic charges; its aim is four times more accurate at long range than the best guns when World War II started; it is, not land-bound despite its size and weight but can be loaded into a landing ship and transported to the scene of an amphibious op- eration to give terrific fire sup- By HARRY LUNN The Joint Judiciary Council met Monday for the first time this semester to consider cases of stu- dents charged with violation of University regulations. Composed of four members of Men's Judiciary, four members from Women's Judiciary and a chairman, the Joint Council serves as one of the student disciplinary boards and represents the highest level of combined student authori- ty at the University. * *. *i TICA nwT2.A Ir .a e ma , ur~o nr.

Members are familiar with student problems and represent all segments of the cam- nus. Several are law students and findings were approved by the Sub-Committee on Discipline. In the remaining cases discip- linary action was recommended by the Council and the Sub-Com- mittee on Discipline ordered it carried out.
