Armistice Talks Reach Dead
End ; Reds Charge Bombing
PANMONJOM, Korea —flit— The
Korean armistice talks appeared
to have reached a dead-end today
with -both sides refusing to budge.
Only a major policy change by
the United Nations or the Commu
nists can end the endurance con
test and save the negotiations from
final collapse
Neither subcommittee working

Each side served notice today
that It will not yield on the two
main issues blocking an armistice
—the U. N. demands for voluntary
repatriation of war prisoners and
for a ban on military airfield con
struction.
A Communist newsman covering
the truce talks told U. N. corres
pondents that full-scale Korean ;
fighting is "sure to begin” unless
the U. N. draps its stand or air
« fields.
DENY CHARGES
At the same time, the U. N. de
nied a Communist charge that Al
lied planes deliberately bombed
and strafed a pronerlv-marked
Communist truce delegation con
voy on the Pyongyang-Kaesong
road last Friday.
It conceded that some such Com
munist vehicles might have been
hit during an Allied air attack at
the soot—a bridge 40 miles
♦of Kaesong. However, the U. N.
said, the four attacking planes did
not see any vehicles in the vicinity.
U. N. Col. James C. Murray
moreover hinted that the Reds
might have been trying to sneak |
through an extra convoy under pro
tection of cerise markers,
• A southbound convoy had been'
spotted st the bridge three hours
before the attack, Muiray said,!

Tarheel Politics
Getting Clearer
As Filing Nean* '
By UNITED PRESS
North Carolina's political p ; cture
is beginning to come into focus.
In weekend developments, Hubert
E. Olive of Lexington plumped
down his filing fee to run for gov
ernor in the May Democratic pri
mary. A SIOO-a-plate Republican
dinner at. Greensboro brought in'
$16,000 for the GOP war chest.
Gov. Kerr Scott, returning from
a Caribbean cruise, hinted he
would favor Olive in the race
against former U. S. Sen. William
B. "Umstead of Durham and two
other Democratic hopefuls.
Traditionally, the nomination is
rotat<*d from East to- West. But
many Easterners said Scott broke
the tradition when he beat Eastern
candidate Charles Johnson. Scott's
Haw River farm sits square on the
dividing line, and he claimed he
was neutral.
SCOTT HINTS
Scott wasn't saying so right out,
but he indicated he might favor
OUve over Umstead.
"He's the only one with a pro
gram, isn’t he" Scott' asked.
Olive’s announced “Program of
Progress” sounds a lot like the
Scott “Go Forward” program.
The rest of the state’s political
setioh was also confined to the
West. J. T. Joyner, Jr., of Win
ston-Salem, withdrew from the
race for iecretary of state “for
personal reasons.”

Asks Tax Hike
For Weapons As
Price Os Peace
WASHINGTON —UPI President
Truman today handed Congress an
$85,400,000,000 "price of peace”
spending budget, and capped it
with the announcement of a mam
mouth future expansion of the U. S.
atomic weapons program.
He proposed an outlay of five to
six billion dollars over the next
five years to double the size of
the already-vast atomic project
and speed mass production of
America’s “fantastic” new weap
ons.” Actual spending on the pro
posed atomic expansion will not
start in the 1953 fiscal year so it
was not part of the budget. But
Mr. Truman unveiled the plan
along with his spending proposals
for the 12 months beginning next
July 1.
MORE FOR ATOMIC
The new budget provided a rec
ord *1,775.000.000 for atomic energy
in fiscal 1953. but its really big
items were $51,200,000,000 for our
armed forces and $51,200,000,000 to
help build up our allies against thb
Communist menace, i
Those two items together mjnn
the United States is carrying about
85 per cent of the cost of rearming
the Western world. The foreign ai(j
request was much larger than
piany congressmen expected and
faced rough going.
Anticipating economy outcries
from the election-minded lawmak
ers, Mr. Truman conceded that hi*
budget “will Involve a heaw bur
den for our taxpayers.” But he
warned that “the price of peace is
preparedness”.
Present taxes will bring In some
*7l 090.000.000, far and away the
biggest revenue in history.
TAX INCREASE
of Congress is no*
disposed to vote it. That would
leave a deficit of $14,400,000,000 ,
and push the national debt to tile
legal limit of $275,000,000,000 by
June 30. 1953.
It was the third largest spending
program ever proposed bv any
Ameican president. Only the pre
war years of 1944 and 1945 exceed*
ed it. The top then was about ,
$98,000,000,000.
The federal spending will take
29 per cent of the national income t
'according to Mr. Truman’S flif
lures, against 52 per cent of IMS
when spending was not so much
higher. This because the Ameri
can economy has expanded eq
much since the war.
The proposed huge spending and
