The 49th soldier is trying hard
to. learn how to fight. That spirit
W«e displayed often in high humor,
by tanker, infantryman, artillery-
man and medic.
Take the example being set by
Capt (Dr.) J* C. Hohf, 82, of
Templg, He is in eharge of a small
medical detachment attached to
649th Anti-Aircraft Artillery Bat-
talion
H4 has seven m«a, all employes
of the veteran’s hospital at Temple.
All are trained medics, but they
aren't sitting down in the field.
They are learning how to defend
themselves against an enemy, and
Dr. fiehl is teaching them.
Example: Hohf called Pvt. Ar-
thur tlmaeus, 28, Temple, over.
"Look, Tlmaeus,” Hohf said.
"What would you do if an enemy
cSffie *t you with a knife while
you were bandaging a wounded
soldier in the field?’
Tlmaeus braced himself as the
doctor rushed Mm, Suddenly, the
chunky soldier grabbed Hohf’s out-
stretched arm and turned his hip.
Using the captain’s momentum *s
a propelling force, he twisted the
doctor over and dumped him to
the gtftund. A tiny dust cloud
arose, and When it cleared, Tiih-
aeus Had the "lniife” —a small
stiek—in his hands.
The doctor said, “Wo are not
aimed—we have to learn to pro-
tect ourselves with our heads sad
our hands.” • • • . •
He turned aWay and began the
game an over again with another
soldier.
That is the spirit of the 49th. It
is a “hot” outfit ,

Berlin General
Says Reds Know
U. Sc Will Fight
Berlin, /uly 28 (W—Maj. Gen.
Mixwell D. Taylor, U. S. comman-
der ■ in Berlin, said today the
Korean war has established coh-
cluaiveiy that Western allied troops
will fight to prevent Russian hr
Communist aggression against
Berlin.
“The Oemitraftists built an arrty
in Karen just as they have in fiafct
Germany,’’ Taylor said in an inter-
view. “However, in Germany we
have not withdrawn our troops and
we have allied troops in Berlin
who will fight if heeessary.”
Taylor said the mah in the street
new knOWs beyond doubt thmt if
Atnerieun troops will fight for
distant Korea, where they had no
forces when Communist aggression
began,'they certainly will fight for
Berlin, whore they do have troops.
He said there is nothing alarm-
ing about current Russian military
maneuvers in East Germany but
warned that the Russians can be
expected to keep pressure on Ber-
lin indefinitely.
“The politieal and economic price
tags hung on Berlin by the Soviets
are still there,” Taylor said, “and
the Russians will undoubtedly con-
tinue to pash for these aims.”
Belli Me reports indicate the
Russian Maneuvers in East Ger-
many are the routine war games
held each summer, Taylor said.
Reliable quarters estimate about
140,000 Russian troops of the esti-
mated 286/100 in Germany are
engaged in the games. They are
working out at company levels,
gradually building up tb the Usual
full-scale army maneuvers in the
fill. That has been Russian prac-
tice for the last fonr years.
Taylor said he had received re-
ports that the Russians appear to
be strengthening or modernitzing
their air power in Germeny by
Converting to jet planes—“but this
his been gradual in Germany just
as elsewhere.*
The till, athletic general, who
commanded the 101st Airborne
Division in the second world war,
said that despite the Korean wfct
there has been no noticeable
change in Rnaaian tactics in Berlin
“either for better er worse.”
He said he believed it improb-
able that unite of East Germany’s
police army would be sent to aid
North Korean Communists.
“Thsy have their mission right
here in Germany,” he said. “The
Communists have large armies In
China which could be diverted to
Korea easier than the Volkspolisei
le's police).”

Germany and Berlin U “jbst an-

The Industry Is Wonting with the
government for textiles and mater-
ials for tie civilian market in eofri
junction with what the growing
armed forces will need, Lovell said.
During World War II people
stood in line for white shirts *s
eagerly as for nylons and cigarets.
“Of course, during the last war
the size of the a rifled fortes weht
up to 11,000,000 plus,” Lovell said.
“Now we know what the civilian
economy requires. . r ‘
“There should be no trouble get-
ting white shirt# in tha foresee-
able future. Unfortunately prices
have gone up. In the past two
weeks there’s been a riae of an
average of 25 per cent in the tex-
tile market.”
So far the Industry has had no
reports of runs On white Shirts or
Similar merchandise.
Lovell said his group — which
represents 90 per cent of the na-
tion’s volume of shirts and pa-
jamas and shorts — will rely on
“consumer cooperation" if and
when the government steps in
with controls and allocations.
The case of the undershort ranks
with the white shirt, he said.
“Shorts are one of the biggest
requirements of the armed forces,”
he said. ‘‘‘They would be the chief
drain on production.”

Leesburg, Va. ffi—Residents of
