Reds Demand
Return Of
"All Prisoners
PANMUNJOM, Korea, Thurs-
day, Jan. 17 API—The Chinese Com-
munists said Wednesday that they
will “fight to the death" against
any attempt by the Allies to turn
war prisoners over to the Chinese
Nationalists.
The statement was made hv Chi-
I, nese delegate Col. Tsai Chang-
* Wen during a debate over the ex-
change of war prisoners.
The Allies want to give refuge
to tens of thousands of Chinese and
North Korean prisoners who do not
want to be sent back to Commun-
ist rule.
“If anybody dares to hand over
any of the personnel of the Chinese
people’s volunteers captured by the
other side of the deadly enemy of
the Chinese people (Nationalist
Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek)
the Chinese people will never tol-
erate it and will fight to the death,"
Tsai said at the truce meeting.
Allied delegates were not sure
whether Tsai’s angry statement
meant that the Reds would oppose
any attempt by the Allies to give
free choice to Communist war
prisoners on the issue of being sent
home.
The Reds have accused the Al-
lies of a plot to detain a “major-
ity” of the captured Chinese troops
for use by the Chinese Nationalist
army on Formosa.
In a statement issued in Tokyo.
Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway’s Su-
preme Allied Headquarters con-
ceded that an Allied plane might
have bombed a Communist war
prisoner camp as the Reds alleged.

Truman Declares
Rearmament Need
Calls For Hike
In National Levy
WASHINGTON. Jan. 16 HP)—Pres-
ident Truman called on a reluctant
Conpress toriav to raise more than
$5 000,000 000 in new taxes.
He said this must be done "very
soon” because the “tragic neces-
sitv” of rearmament reouires it.
Mr Truman coupled his urgent
recommendation with a warning
against “torpedoing” the defense
program by what he called "false
economy.”
He laid down his bold program
in a 13-000-word annual economic
report which disclosed that feder-
al spending will hit a stratospheric
$85,000,000,000 to $90,000,000,000 in
the next year. And he put the Am-
erican people on notice that they
must prepare to bear some incon-
veniences and hardships because
this “is going to be a year of
strain.”
Eliminate Loopholes
In unveiling his election-year re-
•tuest for still higher taxes, Mr.
Truman did not specifically men-
tion bigger personal income taxes.
But he clearly hinted such He
j said his request could be achiev-
ed "bv eliminating loopholes and
special privileges, and by some
tax rate increases.”
But his proposal seemed fore-
doomed. Congressional tax lead-
J ers already have served notice
they will oppose any further taxi
boosts, barring all-out war.
Mr. Truman’s call for still
greater taxes was part of a 12-1
I point legislative program which j
included:
i Stricter price and credit con-
trols; more foreign aid: continued'
j rent controls; revision of the Taft- i
I Hartley labor law; a better farm
price support program; improved |
