STAN CARTER reports from US Eighth Army Headquarters Korea on May 22 that the South Korean army chief says China’s Reds aim to erode U.S. support and destroy faith in the Korean forces. Lt. Gen. Chung Hi Kwon cites defeats due to firepower, leadership, and training gaps, while praising continued U.S. backing. A military court sentenced two colonels to one month confinement for the Sixth Division collapse, with six more officers jailed last week for the same fault.

National farm groups denounce price control policy as political and ineffective for inflation. Herschel D. Newsom of the National Grange attacks the program as driven by politics, joined by the National Council of Farmer Cooperatives, the National Milk Producers Federation, and the American Farm Bureau Federation. The National Farmers Union supports general principles but opposes pseudo price stabilization that freezes farm and labor income while profits rise. Senate and House Banking committees cited in the debate.

Pedestrian and accident mapping proposal features
The report advocates a day night pedestrian accident map with two pin types and a fatal accident map showing long term death spots. It calls for detailed motor vehicle accident records by location via an accident location file and quarterly and annual breakdowns to inform a selective enforcement program targeting places times and causes of accidents.
Allocation Rules for Traffic Enforcement
The text outlines a simple distribution method: allocate enforcement effort in proportion to where accidents occur. If a region accounts for a certain percent of accidents, assign the same percent of effort to it. For time windows such as noon to 4 pm, allocate a corresponding percent. If drunken driving causes 30 percent of accidents, devote 30 percent of effort to that problem.
