Groves says defensive policy won't bring peace
General Leslie R. Groves told the Fifth Congress of American Ukrainians that the United States faces a slow, strength-sapping foreign policy aimed at halting communism. He warned the U S pours blood and money into Korea but never faces the enemy directly. A separate incident reported an ambulance crash in upper Manhattan injuring a 19 year old expectant mother Mable Monroe Lewis and others. A subway accident in Manhattan left a man mangled in a tunnel near the East River. James H McKenna, a long time Schenectady fish market owner, retires after 45 years.
