WASHINGTON. July )o-(AP)-- 'l'he United States in an official white paper marshailed evidence many that Russia along with the North Korean Communists was to blzume for the Korean crisis.

Dcnouncing the invasion as a "brutal blow to the peace of the world". a 68-pale step-by-step re- cord contained charges that Mos- tow flouted its Dost-war Harne- bicnis and defied the United Na- tions by creating and backing the hm-th Korea regime.

Then after the attack was hiuncheri. the white paper noted. Russia rebuffed an American plea fnr co-operation in restoring peace by refusing to "interfere in the internal, affairs" of Korea.

There was no contention. he, ,ever:'-1

The State Department publiah- rd the record with the explanation it had the responsibility for plac- ing "full and accurate informa- tion" on the crisis before the Am- erican people and the world. In- rludcd wert the texts of 101 documents.

I. Russia at Potsdam and at the time of declaring war against Japan pledged that Korea "in due course" should become free and independent.

2. The 38th parallel dividing line between North and South Korea was established only as a temporary expedient to avoid con- fusion in accepting the surrender of the Japanese. Russia quickly moved in troops and "arbitrarily" made the line a permanent div- ision.

3. After agreeing at the Moscow conference in late 1945 to help set up a provisional democratic government for all Korea. Russia blocked all efforts to this end.

4. When the U. S. in trying to End the stalemate referred the dispute to the U. N.. Russia adopted a "negative attitude" rind barred from North Korea a U. N. commission which was nam- ed to supervise elections. While the U. S. and 31 other countries extended recognition to the South Korea Republic. Russia vetoed its entry into the U. N.

5. Meantime the Soviet Union established the North Korea Crum- munist regime which "has lived. as it was created. in complete do- finnce of the U. N."

Canada's Interest In U. N. Force Disclosed

OTTAWA, July 20-(GP)-Canny da's interest-one official called it "a sympathetic interest"-in a United Nations' International Force for Korea was made known to Lake success today as Ottawa mov- ed into a period of expanded em- phasis on defence.

Although the government has no intention of taking the initiative for such a. f0tn'iai.1011..lt Dtomrllli raised the possiblity that cab net will again find itself confronted with the toughest question of all arising from the Korean wan- whethor to send ground troops.

The idea of an informational force is being discussed among the U. N. secretariat, but so far in an in- conclusive, informal way. It is felt here to have its attractions but also its great practical difficulties.

Army Combat Teams Aleried for Far East

WASHINGTON. July 20-(AP) -The United States Marine Corps announced today it was calling all organized reserve ground units to active duty. Officials said these reserves totalled about 47,000 of- ficers and enlisted men.

The navy summoned several air reserve units. said by officials to total 9.000 officers and 3,000 men.

The army issued an alert to a number of regular army combat teams around the country to get ready to move to the Far East.

The naval air service is formed around 27 air stations, and includ- es more than 350 "fully organized squadrons," the navy said. Most units have Second World War plancs but some have later type.

The army said:

"Several combat and supporting units from each of the six army areas, in addition to those previ- ously announced. have been alert- ed for movement in the near fut- ure to the Far East command."

Authority for the armed forces to summon reserves to active duty was announced Wednesday bY President Truman as he pointed lhe United States toward a vast wartime readiness.

In Congress, action neared on two military manpower bills sought by the President. The arm- (-d services committees of the Senate and the House of Repre- sentatives set tomorrow for con- sideration of measures to:

1. Take the legal limit of 2,005.- B82 men off the ihree armed for- ces. The number of un-iiolims actually is some 500.000 Short 01

Defence Program To Affeci Housing

OTTAWA, July 20-(CP)-Gov- ernment yofflciais are going to watch closely the edect of the accelerated defence programs of Canada and United States on this country's housing construction pFo- gram.

An official of Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation. the gov- ernment ngency administering all federal housing legislation. said today in an interview that a sowing down of the home-build- ing boom in United States could mean a reduction in lumber pur- chases in Canada.

Heavy United States demand for Canadian lumber, particularly from British Columbia. has sent lumber prices soaring recently and caused shortages.

But a better lumber supply might be offset by a shortage of other building materials. Increased use of steel in defence projects could cause a shortage of such things as bathtubs and furnaces.

Briiish Ambassador Calls Ongomyko

Up All Ground Reserves

Young Canadians Asked

To Enlist By

OTTAWA. 'July 20 --'(CP) -.Da- fence Minister Claxton tonight is- sued a call for young Canadians to join their country's armed forces.

"I believe the P nadian forces today are as fine and fit a body of men as we have ever had under our colors at any time," said Mr. Claxton in a. 15-minute radio ad- dress prepared for delivery over the trans-Canada network of the Canadian Broadcasting Corpora- tion.

”What. we want now is more of the same kind.”

solicitor General Hugues La- polnte made a similar appeal for new recruits in an address over the French network of the 030.

Mr. Claxton assured his listeners that Canada's accelerated defence program, .. nounced yesterday by Prime Minister at. Laurent, "doesn't mean that we expect an- other world war."

He added:

tilt does mean that by being in as good a state of preparation as the resources made available per- mlt we will be doing our part to prevent war."

outlining the new defence pro- gram, the Minister said these steps now are underway or planned:

1. The three armed forces will recruit single men between the ages of la and 20. He ggve M estimate of the number of men to

be recruited, saying "circumstan- ces now Justify the recruiting of additional men without any stated ceiling above the present total strength of 47,000. However, ser- vice heads are expected to seek between 6,000 and 8.000 recruits.

Says Russia Decided On War Against U. S. In 1949

WASHINGTON. July so - (AP) - A former deputy chief of United States naval intelligence as s the

Russian politburo has ideci .-fro; move against the United States

before 1966.

Retired Admiral Ellis s. Zach- arias makes this assertion in a book, "Behind Closed Doors", pub- lished today (G. P. Putnamis Sons.)

(Zacharias said today that the Korean war. which began after he completed the book, is not the lnusso-American conflict which is "likely to materialize some time between the summer of 1952 and the fall of 1950”. but instead is "war by proxy")

Zacharias says the Russian high command decided on war at the session of the politburo-that wound up at 5 am. Jan. 20. 1940. He writes:

"This strange nocturnal drama was described in a special intelli- gence report. to which we gained access, by one of the men who were present: a young colonel of the guards, staff member -0! Mar- shal Voroshilov's military sub- committee within the politburo."

This informant, according to Zacharias, was a colonel Khralov. who desired "to escape somehow from the captivity of his momen- tous secret. - - - To prevent it from doing the ruinous harm for which the plan had been specifical- ly designed."

The book relates that some months after the January meeting Khralov crossed the demarcation line in Berlin and surrendered to an intelligence officer in the Brit- ish zone. He later went to Bel- gium, where Zacharias writes "it was by certain Belgian contacts that his material was brought to our attention." v

Zacharias says a soviet estimate figured that the U. S. will ex- perience A major depression bo- lmeen 1054 and nod; and the U. S. will then go to war to stave off the cataclysmic effects of this de- pression on its national economy and morale.

LONDON, July 20-(CF)-The Government announced today it has decided to buy 37.500 long tons of Canadian newsprint during the second half of 1951. A similar order for the first half of 1951 was disclosed earlier.

Harold Wilson. president of the Board of Trade. attached one string to the House of Commons unnouncemeni-he said the con- tracts must be placed for delivery before the end of 1951.

The Government decision was not unexpected. Wilson told the press this week that he was dis- cussing with the treasury the pos- sibility of making more dollars available for. Canadian newsprint.

The announcement followed a statement only this week by the newsprint supply company. which allocates supplies to British news- papers. thatetocks for 1951 are "highly precarious and uncertain."

ATTACK

iHigh Defense Costs May

OTTAWA, July 20 - (CF) Taxes may jump next year as I result of Korean war.

A government official said io- day that looms as a "real pos- sibility" if Canada has to step deeper into the Korean conflict.

The official said he believed that if Canada's commitments were sta- bilized at the current level-three destroyers and eight North Stars- the costs could be met through the budgetary surplus expected to emerge at the end of the current fiscal year.

But, with the governments de- cision to step up recruiting in the three fighting forces and expand Canada's armaments production, this would take more than money that the surplus was expected to produce.

on top of this is the expecta- tion that Canada will put more transport planes in the trans- Pacific airlift to meet the request of the United Nations for more

battle zone.

in his budget g surplus of about 320,000,000. but it may reach 330.- 000.000.

What the eventual cost will be for Canadals total participation in the battle to oust the commun- ists from South Korea still is un- known. It could run well into the hundred millions.

The official said the govern-
