S. Dickenson’s Stand Harmful to Them WASHINGTON (AP) — Cpl. Edward S. Dickenson, a Virginia farm boy who chariged his mind about staying with the Commu- nists in Korea, faces Army charges that he dealt ille- gally with his Red cap- tors to get better treatment. If tried and convicted of ‘}one of the charges, he could be sentenced to death. The Army notified Dick- enson of the charges last night, then placed him under arrest at its Walter Reed Hospital here. He has been undergoing a physical examination. The 23-year-old soldier stands accused of unlawfully holding ‘‘in- tercourse with the enemy” to get “favorable treatment.'’ The formal charges say his activities hurt other prisoners of war held by the sarily mean he will be brought to trial. An official announcement by the Military District of Washington said no decision will be made on whether to try Dickenson until after an investigation of the charges and evidence has beer finished and its results “fully re- viewed for legal sufficiency.’’ The Army said this preliminary will be held “at the earliest date possible.” Dickenson, whose home is in the remote mountain town of Cracker’s Neck in southwestern Virginia, was one of 23 American soldiers who refused to return to United Nations lines when the Korean truce was signed last summer, He later asked neutral Indian guards to take him back. The young told re- porters at the time that the Chi- nese Reds “kept me back” with threats. A second American—Cp!. Claude J. Batchelor—renounced the Com- munists on New Year's Day.

The bill is scheduled to be in- troduced during this session of the Michigan Legislature, Ewart said. Sale price of the property as stipulated in the bill, would be based on an appraisal set by the State Tax Commission, he added. Mayor Arthur J.

Law's plans call for relocation of the armory on one of five sites in the Pontiac area The project, according to Law, would be a joint operation be- tween Michigan, the United States government and the city, with Pontiac furnishing the land or money for the land.
