Nationalists Say
3,000 in Revolt
In Red China
TAIPEH, Formosa, OP)—An
official Nationalist Chinese news
agency reported Tuesday that
more than 3,000 persons are in
active revolt in the northwestern
areas of Hunan Province on the
Communist Chinese mainland.
The report came from the Min
istry of Interior’s Tatao Agency,
which claims underground con
tacts. The Defense Ministry could
not confirm the report, but it ap
peared plausible in view of the
increasing number of reports put
out by the Reds themselves about
so-called “counter - revolutionary
activities.”
j Hunan Province is in central
. China.
Those in revolt, Tatao said,
| were persons whose relatives had
j been executed or oppressed by the
| Reds. Half had organized them
I selves into an armed guerilla
I
I force. The other half were using
j poison and other means to kill
j Communist officers and political
! workers.
The entire group was said to be
under the direction of a man iden
tified only as Ting Po-lin.

Information Mixup
Causes Search for Plane
In CAP Rescue Practice
ANCHORAGE, OP—A reported
plane crash Saturday near Beluga
Mountain, northwest of Anchor
age turned out to be merely a
game of aerial hide and seek.
Civil Air Patrol officials said at
Anchorage that the incident was
part of the CAP’s annual mock
search and rescue operation. A
mixup in information was respon
sible for a simulated operation
being reported as the real thing,
the CAP said.
The original story given full
play by newspapers-and radio and
television stations, concerned a
civilian amphibian plane with two
aboard, reported missing on a
flight from Anchorage to Mc
Grath, 210 miles to the northwest.
Actually, CAP officials said,
there was no plane involved. A
foulup in liaison between the CAP
and the press resulted in a situ
ation where the exercise was re
ported as the real thing.
Incidentally, the CAP reports
the simulated search and rescue
operation was a success.
Man Released by Reds
Questioned to Determine
Claim to U.S. Citizenship
BERLIN, —A civilian handed
over to U.S. control by the Rus
sians after seven years in Soviet
labor camps was questioned close
ly Tuesday to determine his claim
to American citizenship.
U.S. officials said that Freder
ick £harles Hopkins told “so
many differenet stories” that his
actual citizenship could be open
to question. The man reportedly
| said Monday after the Russians
released him that he was from
New York City.
Hopkins is in the custody of in
telligence agents. He is in good
| health in spite of his long years in
camp* doctors said.
He was handed over by thfe
I Soviets Sunday along with Pvt.
i Wilfred C. Cumish, 39, of Ames
j bury, Mass., and Cpl. Murray
| Fields, 36, of Bayside, N.Y.
Both soldiers had been missing
since 1948 and may be tried, as
deserters. They were under guard
today in the Army hospital until
medical examinations axe com
pleted.
