President Assails Ike In 'Give 'Em Hell' Drive
Enroute With Truman—(U.P.)—President Truman said today the election of Dwight D. Eisenhower might result in "the most disastrous war" in the world's history.
Taking his "give 'em hell" campaign into New England, Mr. Truman said both national prosperity and world peace "are wrapped up" in this year's election.
The President told a crowd of
Loyalty Program Has No Legality
Washington—(U.P.)—A federal appeals court ruled unanimously today there is nothing in the President's loyalty program warranting discharge of government workers solely on grounds of membership in an organization cited as subservient by the attorney general.
The three-judge District of Columbia court of appeals said the loyalty program makes "disloyalty to the government the bar to (federal) employment rather than membership or activity in the designated organizations."
The court rebuked the President's loyalty review board for issuing a directive stating that discharge of all persons belonging to such unions is "mis mandatory." It said federal agencies should ignore the directive.
The decision was made in the case of James Kutcher, lessless World War II veteran who was fired from a Veterans Administration job because he belonged to the Socialist Workers party.
This organization has been described by the attorney general as seeking to alter the form of government and to advance States by unconstitutional means."
Kutcher admitted his membership at a hearing before a VA branch loyalty board, which found there was "reasonable grounds" for believing Kutcher was disloyal to the United States.
Red Radio Claims Naval Triumph
Tokyo —(U.P.) Communist radio Pyongyang claimed today that Red shore guns damaged a United Nations destroyer and sank two landing vessels yesterday, apparently during the UN's mock invasion of eastern Korea.
The Red broadcast said the damage was inflicted near Tongjong, not far from the Kojo peninsula where the Allied training exercise took place.
The broadcast, heard in Tokyo, made no reference to any mass landing attempt, although it was expected that Communist propagandists would claim a great victory in "renelling" the invasion.
United Press Movietone Cameraman Tom McAllen reported seven American sailors were injured when a shell from a Red shore battery splattered a U.S. destroyer with shrapnel.
"When you go to the polls on Nov. 4, you either keep this country in the right groove or you may send it into the most disastrous war in the history of the world."
1,500 to 2,000 at North Haven, Conn.;
In a Hartford speech, Mr. Truman charged that the Republican presidential candidate is trying to auction off the oil-rich tidelands for votes.
At North Haven, Mr. Truman said Gov. Adlai E. Stevenson, Democratic presidential candidate, "says what he means for the entire United States."
"He is not just throwing out baited hooks to get votes," Mr. Fruman said.
The President said "no man can promise world peace," but that the best hope for it lies in the election of Mr. Stevenson.
Mr. Truman told a crowd estimated by police at 10,000 at Wallingford, that the "Taft brand of Republicanism" adopted by Mr. Eisenhower "won't do the country any good or the peace of the world, either."
Mr. Truman was greeted along the way by a few boos mixed with cheers and applause.
Before moving on to Middletown, where he was greeted by an estimated 30,000, Mr. Truman said the Republicans "haven't learned a thing" about prosperity since the Hoover administration.
"If the Republicans win the election," he said, "you have a chance of having 28-million unemployed."
He said, "I can't think of anything worse in the White House. House Democrats don't understand the complicated problems we have in this country."
The President said he was particularly happy to stop at Middletown because it was the birthplace of George Washington, secretary of State Dean Acheson."
He said Acheson "has done more than anyone else in the country in the program to stop world communism. We have developed a sound foreign policy and it has stopped foreign aggression in its tracks.

Any area within the geographical limits of the University which is not specifically designated for restricted parking, free parking, or a parking zone will be considered a no-parking area, according to a ruling by the Student Court last night.
Court Defines Parking Areas
The ruling resulted from the appeal of a parking ticket by Don Mattocks, college sophomore. Mattocks had left his car in an unmarked area about 200 yards north of the fieldhouse site.
Sam Prochaska, Student Court prosecutor, said the ticket had been issued because Mattocks' car was interfering with the movement of trucks working on the site. The court repealed the fine on the grounds that the area was unmarked and that other drivers had parked there before.
John W. Bovd, college freshman, wrong zone. Boyd contended that the distinction between zones I and U, on Mississippi street north of Thirteenth, was not clear. He missed the right one by one parking stall.
Other fines which the court repealed, were;
Gerald Sawatzky, second year law, no permit. Sawatzky stated that the offense had been committed on the first day of school, before he had secured a permit. The court affirmed a fine for a similar offense occurring on Monday after the first day, of classes.
R. L. Carpenter, medical freshman, parking in a restricted zone. He pleaded extenuating circumstances.
Students who forfeited their right of appeal by failure to appear when their cases were called were:
W. S. Bringar, Gloria Harris,
Jean Bryson, and John Bartholomew,
no permits; George Klaunch.
Dee Munger, and Jack Reed, parking in a restricted zone; and Philip Dunn and George Learned, wrong zone.
Skeleton Cleaning Method Found in Dyche 38 Years Ago
Dr. Raymond C. Moore, acting chairman of the geology department and director of research of the Kansas State Geological survey, returned to Lawrence yesterday morning following a 16-month stay in Europe.
Approximately 25 students and several faculty members were on hand to meet Dr. Moore and his wife at the Santa Fe depot. Mrs. Moore accompanied Dr. Moore on his trip through Europe.
Dr. Moore was a visiting professor at the University of Utrecht, Utrecht, Holland, where he was a lecturer of geology. He also lectured in France and Sweden.
An extensive trip through Germany, Switzerland, and Spain was also made by Dr. Moore. Together with Dr. John C. Frye, director of the Kansas State Geological survey, Dr. Moore attended the 19th International Geological conference in Algiers, North Africa.
AtomicWeaponReadyforKoreanUse
Seoul, Korea—(U.P.)-American infantrymen captured "Jane Russell" hill on towering Triangle mountain today, completing a conquest that cost the Chinese communists more than 2.500 casualties in three days of savage fighting.
Dr. Harison B. Tordoff, an asa method for cleaning delicate skeletons was discovered by accident in Dyche museum 38 years ago.
The Dermestid method, which is now almost universally used, merely involves the introduction of a skinned specimen to a colony of Dermestid beetles.
However, the Reds clung desperately to their last toehold on Pike's peak, a knob on the northeast corner of the mountain.
The beetles, relatives of the carpet beetle, will eat the meat from the skeleton without touching a bone. They will leave even the most delicate bone structure intact.
Seventh Division officers estimated that in three days of fighting for Triangle, a total of 2,535 communist soldiers was killed, wounded or taken prisoner. Only 57 were
GI's Grab 'Jane Russell' In Grim Korean Fighting
Experiments by Mr. Bunker following the discovery revealed Dermestids could do a much better job with the skeletons than even the most careful laboratory worker.
Moore Returns From European Trip
Use of the Dermestids was conceived by Charles Bunker in 1914 when some forgotten specimens were found on a cluttered shelf stripped clean by Dermestids which occur naturally in Kansas.
A hard-hitting assault by fighting men of the 7th Division's 31st Regiment battered the Chinese reds from the hotly-contested peak and gave the U. N. troops all three heights on the central front hill mass—Jane Russell, Sandy Hill and Triangle itself.
Washington—(U.P.) The U. S. military is ready to hand the Chinese Reds an atomic clobbering any time it gets the word.
Hitherto the U. S. military has relied solely on the Air Force for delivery of its atomic Sunday punches if the grim necessity of throwing them should arise. The Army is now on record as saying it, too, can give an enemy large doses of atomic firepower.
If atomic violence should be loosed upon the Reds in Korea any time soon, however, it would be in the form of A-bombs dropped by airplanes. This country has a lot of them in a variety of sizes.
But the defense official made it clear the military has not yet proposed atomic warfare against the communists. Only the President can authorize use of atomic weapons and up to now that authorization has not been sought.
Whether that word ever will be sought or given cannot, as of today, be foretold.
If, however, "major" and "appropriate" targets worth expenditure of atomic bombs should develop in the Korean war, the offi-
cial leader of the group.

As in previous secret tests, the guns fired only conventional shells in yesterday's demonstration. But Army Secretary Frank C. Pace Jr., said the new weapon will shoot live atomic ammunition in future tests to be held at the atomic energy commission's proving ground in Nevada.
A high defense official said the military is prepared to recommend use of atomic weapons in Korea when and if the right sort of targets develop.
But America did some atomic muscle-flexing yesterday that can hardly be ignored either by the communists already warring against the United Nations in Korea or by others plotting similar aggression.
At its Aberdeen (Md.) proving ground the Army fired three of its 85-ton, 11-inch atomic cannon at a small bore and jet, the snivellers, see a fourth.
And the Army publicly demonstrated a battery of atomic cannon and announced it also is perfecting guided atomic missiles for "close support" of ground forces on the battlefield.
President Truman has said he hopes it never will be necessary to explode another atomic bomb in war. But he unhesitatingly authorized its use against Japan in 1945 and has indicated he would act as unhesitatingly again under comparable circumstances.

warped.
Warplanes from six 5th Air Force fighters bomber units flew more than 100 sorties in support of allied ground soldiers in the Kumhwa area. In addition to hits on bunkers, gun emplacements, shelters and caves, pilots reported exploding stored Red ammunition.
South Korean troops at nearby Sniper ridge said they had "pretty well cleaned up" stray Chinese by dropping TNT charges into the mouths of caves where it was suspected the Reds were hiding.
South Korean officers estimated they killed or wounded 571 Chinese communists in the battle for Sniper, besides capturing 50,000 rounds of small arms ammunition. 850 bore grenades and a handful of rifles and burp guns.
Seventh Division infantrymen were "mopping up" on Jane Russell hill, scouring out surviving Red soldiers.
United Press War Correspondent Fred Painton reported from the scene, however, that the Reds were "constantly" building up their forces on a northern finger leading to Triangle. He said reinforcements were believed coming from a regiment of about 3,000 men hidden in nearby foothills.
Some 700 bugle-blowing, screaming Reds from the hidden regiment assaulted the Americans on Triangle during the night, but got nowhere. The first attack began at 8 p.m. (5 a.m. CST) Wednesday.
"We had good foxholes," an officer said. "Our wire was up and machine-guns zeroed in. We didn't give an inch. We completely busted up the attack. We cut them down with machine-guns when they got close."
Another attack came at 4:40 a.m. today (1:40 p.m. Wednesday CSU). The fighting continued all day until the allies launched their successful attack on Jane Russell knob.
On Sniper riage, one mile to the east, nearly l.500 communist soldiers tried in vain to dislodge South Korean soldiers. The Reds launched six attacks ranging in strength from a company to a battalion.
Red troops seized control of caves and bunkers at "Pinpoint hill," on the northern end of the ridge, but the Koreans counterattacked and recaptured the positions at 5 a.m. (2 p.m. CST Wednesday). Nearly 140 Reds were believed killed during the night-long fight.
