Secret "Gadgets'

Help U.S. Jets Down Red Planes

New York, May 20,-.. Lt-Gen. James Doolittle described today some of the secret weapons which, he said, were helping the United States Air Force maintain a 13 to one combat ratio over enemy planes in Korea.

The superiority of our pilots is a big reason, of course, for our high margin of victory in Korea," said General Doolittle. But he added that "gadgets" in some instances had successfully replaced combat experience.

One of these "gadgets" is the A-1-CM gunsight, which he said the principal

Some Republican Senators who are demand- ing that the United States quit the United Nations if Red China gets in, today sought a show-down on the issue within the Eisenhower. Administra- tion.

Senator Williani F. Knowland, Republican, said that "events in the immediato - offing” will determine whether he presses for the adoption of his resolution introduced yesterday calling upon President Eisenhower to end United States parti- cipation in the United Nations if Red China be- comes a member.
