Communists Take
Two Towns After
Several Skirmishes

Chinese communist troops
now facing the United Nations
forces have taken at least two
towns, one Kaesong, the most
important. These represent
the first South Korean towns
taken. The communists have
advanced about seven and a
half miles despite furious air
assaults. In many places only
a narrow river is said to divide
the opposing armies.
Macarthur reports that 10
Chinese divisions are now adj
vancing to occupy battle posi-
tons. 1t is also predicted that
they will throw their weight
on the Allied flank.
Two-thirds Of the popula-
ton Of Seoul have thus far
left the city despite the assur-
ances of the Mayor who said
it was safe and would be de,
Tended to the death.

Miles MerWin, who is at

the Chamber of Commerce
that beginning in late January

Co. has decided to give one
day in St. Thomas and one
day in st. Croix arriving at
Frederiksted daylight; to sail
at s pm. for ST. Kits.
For some time local business
people have complained about
the arrival time of the Furness
ships, most generally at night,
and departure within a few
hours. This short period of
stay makes. it almost impossi-
BILE for any of the ships pas
sengers to see St. Croix and do
any shopping.
The Chamber of Commerce
has been working on plans to
work some type of tour and

passengers. In view of the fact
that in the future, definite
hour of departure will be
known, it will be possible to
see that all passengers have an

Pastors Adversely, Trowell,

Moravian Church, Nisky Mo.

Church Methodist respective
~, and Pastors Arbaugh and
FRANKIE Of the Frederick
Lutheran Church, have sent
an appeal to Governor de Cas-
tro, stating that the Protes-
tant Ministers Fraternal has
discussed a matter weighing
heavily on the hearts Of its
members, the question being
the community,s practice Of
horse races on Sum
days.
The Pastors urged the Gov
ernor to recommend to the
Racing Commission that horse
races be held on other DAYS
than Sundays. "We feel this
would be a forward step on
the part of the community. in
that more respect would be
shown towards the one day Of
the week on which the Church
should have priority" the Pas
tors stated in their petition.
Governor de Castro has adj
vised them that the matter
will be carefully studied by
the Administration.

Many children have lost their parents in the fighting in Korea. In
Seoul an Orphanage was destroyed. Forty or more of the children
were killed, or were missing, according to a UN. information officer
on the spot. Some SO children survived the destruction of this
Orphanage and have since been moved to other quarters. UN's
work in assisting Korea's children still goes on, Above is shown a
group of war orphans, who were found wandering in the ruins of
Seoul, being taken to the Seoul Civic Orphanage by a United Ma

Before the Congress quits, a
group of Senators, representing
possibly more than half of that
body's membership, will send
President Truman a letter asking
that the American Government
oppose with every means at its
disposal the seating of the Chi
neSe Communists in the United
Nations.
The sponsors of the move fully
are aware that their letter will not
affect in the least the administra-
tions policy of offering only aca-
demic opposition to the seating
of the Chinese Reds and refus-
ing to use the veto, which is the
only effective means of preventing
Red China from joining the So
Wet bloc in the U. N. This has
been made clear by the State De-
partment on repeated occasions.
Wishful Thinking.
In spite of the open hostility
of the Peiping puppets to the
Western nations. the wishful
thinkers in the State Department
are determined to permit the seat
ing of the Chinese Communists.
A number of arguments have been
set forth to explain this position.
Through its many propaganda
channels the State Department
has indicated that it believes Mao
TSe-tung and the other bigwigs
in Peiping IN time may become
as hostile to Moscow as Marshal
Tito is. To strengthen this point
of view many stories have been
circulated since the outbreak of
the war in Korea to the effect
that Mao is annoyed with his
Kremlin friends because they did
not permit the Chinese Red army
to invade Formosa. To bolster
these stories it is said that no
less a person than Vyacheslav
Molotov. Soviet deputy prime min
ister. has been spending much
time in Peiping endeavoring to
appease Mao and Foreign Min
ister Chou En-lai.
1t is true that Molotov has
been in Peiping in recent weeks.
But according to grapevine re-
ports from sources which in the
past have proved reliable, his visit
had nothing to do with "appease-
ment" of Mao and his gang. He
went there to supervise personally

Allies Urge Increase
In Reich Stee! Output
BY the Associated Press

BONN, Germany, Sept. 8.-The
Allied High Commission has
recommended an increase of West
Germany's steel output to the
American, French and British
foreign ministers. a competent
Allied source said yesterday.
He said the commission agreed
unanimously on raising the pres
ent ceiling of II million tons an
nually. though opinions still diff
fer as to the new limit. That
limit, the source added, will de-
pend on the outcome of the three
power talks starting in New York
September II.
He predicted. however, that the
Germans may be allowed to in
crease their steel output to at
least 13 million tons annually
German experts regard that figure
as present capacity. They say
higher production would require
more capital, which is not now
available.
The Americans, said an inform
ant, are prepared to remove all
limits on German steel production,
while the British are willing to go
as high as Is million tons.
