trapped and widely scattered Red
remnants were turning increas-

activities.
Gen. MacArthur's spokesman
noted the increase Of Red raider
action and said It might create a
serious harassment of rear areas.
Efforts to capture trapped Reds

3 Divisions Still Fight.
Remnants of three North Ko-

United States I'd Divisions ad-

smile.
Opposition showed up only once.
The Northwest Young Mems Asso-
citation was formed to oppose Red
rule. 1t was affiliated with the
South Korean Young Mems
Association.
Chat said the leader was shot
and the rest were jailed. That
ended resistance.
Another Korean heard from was
Chats brother law, Shin Hal
Son, farmer from nearby vii
lage. He was bitter about taxes.
Under the Japanese, he said, the
tax was about one-fourth of the
crop. Under the Communists it
was increased to more than SO
per cent Of the crop.
I then asked if most North
Koreans preferred Japanese rule
to that Of the Communists. Both
men nodded vigorously.
But of course it will be much
better to have our own govern
ment for the whole country" Chat
said.
Shin expressed satisfaction with
at least one thing the Commu-
nists had done: Redistribution of
farm land. Each adult over 20
years was given about one e-seventh
of an acre. Farmers who pro-
duced the most got additional
land.
Shin said the land redistribu-
tion program was the one thing
the Communists had done that
got the approval of most Koreans.
Neither Chat nor Shin ever saw
Russians in and around Yang
yang. Shin, however, said he had
heard North Korean soldiers who
were digging Notifications along
the 38th parallel say they were
working under Russian in

Associated Press War Correspondent

YANGYANG. Korea, Oct. S.
Some North Koreans in this first
Asian Iron Curtain city to be lib
Grated say their Communist bosses
were worse than the Japanese.
But the northerners liked the Red
policy Of redistributing the land.
The Japanese rulers went out at
the end Of the war. Then came
the Korean Communist rulers to
this town of 10000 just north of
the 38th parallel.
These people who lived for five
years under the Communists don't
easily forget the fear they knew.
But Chat Byong II and the others
seem to be doing their best to
overcome it.
They have begun to criticize
their Red rulers. While it is the
way of the Orient to get on the
bandwagon, this criticism takes
some courage in people who can
not be sure the Reds won't be
back soon.
Chat was in Japan when the
war ended. He landed in North
Korea. and the Communists would
not let him go south because his
wife was northerner.
Chat got job cooking for about
so young Communist party
workers in Yangyang.
Chat said the Reds held regular
elections. Candidates were hand
picked by the Communist Korean
Labor Party. The voters could ap-
prove by dropping a ballot in a
white box. If they disapproved,
they could put their ballot in a
black box.

The LocoI Issues
Alexandra Studies Methods
Of Filling ? Vital City Offices

What is the best method of fill
ing the Offices of city attorney and
city tax collector in Alexandria? /?
This single local issue faces
Alexandria voters on the coming
election day, November 7.
A referendum will be held in
connection with the election to
determine whether the voters shall
continue to elect these officers or
whether they shall be appointed.
The referendum was authorized
by the Virginia General Assembly
early this year when it approved
a new charter for Alexandria.
Appointment Recommended.
A citizens commission which
drafted the charter recommended
that the city attorney be ap-
pointed by the council and the
tax collector be appointed by the
city manager.
Those who favor appointment
say the city attorney should have
a professional and confidential
relation with the council. They
think he should be responsible to
the law-making body rather than
independent of it.
They argue. too, that the col
lector's job is an administrative
one, properly falling within the

Ban on Clergy Cited
In Assembly Race
In Second District
BY the Associosed Press

BALTIMORE, Oct. 30.-If Eu-
gene T. Grove is elected a State
delegate next month, the Gen.
eral Assembly probably will have
to decide if he can take his seat.
He is a minister. Clergymen
are barred from Office by the
State constitution.
Neither Mr.. Grove, pastor of
the Grace Memorial Baptist
Church, nor Republican leaders
were aware of the constitutional
provision when he was selected
as a candidate from Baltimore's
Second District.
The General Assembly is the
only authority to determine
whether he fell within the pro-
hibition," j. Edgar Harvey, dep
uty attorney general, said today.
Frank Cobb, another Republi-
can candidate for delegate from
Second District, may be in the
same category. Mr.. Cobb de-
scribes himself as a minister with
no denomination.
