Ships Defy Red Guns to Save Wounded Men

Four U S warships pressed through shelling from Communist batteries to rescue wounded Allied personnel on an island at Wonsan Harbor entrance. The Manchester, Owen, Henderson, and Epperson supported by Panther jets reportedly silenced the Reds amid unclear outcomes. Captain Joseph McConnell, of Apple Valley California, claimed his Sabre jet earned his 10th air victory, becoming a fifth double jet ace. Across the 155 mile front, Allied and Red forces clashed in small fights as 14 Red probes marked the busiest week in a month, with weekly Red casualties totaling 3434, including 1780 killed, mainly from the U S Seventh Division.

Taft Seeks Modifications to Submerged Lands Bill

Washington Senator Taft said he is exploring possible modifications to the submerged lands bill to gain broad agreement. Debate on the measure, which would grant states title to oil rich offshore lands, has stretched into its 17th day with no clear path to consensus. Taft floated a federal authority clarification for the continental shelf and considered limiting state ownership to a three mile belt, including Texas and Florida. The Senate plans extended sessions as the fight over the bill continues amid accusations of a filibuster and organized opposition seeking to educate the public on perceived evils. ThePresident favors state control, and Thursday night’s session ran nearly 12 hours.

Adult Education Bill Faces Assembly Test

Senator Har old T. Johnson said his adult education measure, passed by the Senate, will face its first Assembly test May 6 with a scheduled hearing. The bill, opposed by critics, would end state support for adult classes in recreational subjects, dancing, civil defense and first aid, and for prison courses. The review coincides with other budget actions on the state building program and UC support. The rabies control bill was rejected by the Senate agriculture committee, proposing vaccination mandates for areas with rabid dogs and noting high costs for anti rabies serum.
