Allies Turn Red
 Artillery Back On North Koreans

 Ordnance men were ordered to work 'round(the-cl clock preparing the captured guns for action.
 The order came after a prelim- mary survey of only two sectors showed the North Koreans aban- doned at least "A artillery pieces and big mortars when the Second Division routed them from the east bank of the Naktong river.
 There is a tremendous store of captured Russian-made ammuni- ton for the guns. One regiment alone took 200 tons
 Plans call for a special unit to be organized to use the Russian made guns against the Reds.

SAYS LESS LIGHT IN
WINTER UPS M|SHAPS

A considerable increase in high
way traffic deaths may be attribut-
ed to bad weather and shorter day
light hours of the fall and winter
months, according to l.. w. Hage-
man of the Hageman Transport
company, Laurel. Recent national
statistics show a persistent 40 per
cent increase in highway accidents
between the low rate in April and
the high rate in January, indicat-
ing that a large proportion of &C
cidents are caused by light be-
coming poor while traffic is still
heavy. Of course fog and the
other weather conditions of winter
add to the total hazard.
Nine of 10 accidents r the
fault of the drivers, in Hagemar's
opinion. He is quoted as saying
that "an icy stretch of road, snow,
reduced visibility in rain or fog
and poor visibility at night sharp
ly limit a drivers capabilities, yet
too many otherwise excellent driv-
ers go too fast under these con-
tions. Driving a car is at all times
a serious business. 1t can be
deadly serious. It's up to the driv-
er to appreciate these unexpected
hazards and drive at a speed well
in keeping with the road and the
conditions"
Attention was called to the X
cellent safety record of the pro-
fessional driver, who logs three to
five times the mileage of the av-
erage passenger car driver, and
often under most adverse condi-
lions. Driving Skill" has been a
theme of the national courtesy and
safety campaign sponsored by the
industry and directed towards or
as we'll as professional drlv-
ers.
Hageman appeared on the pro-
gram of the Montana Motor Trans
port association that meet re-
in Great Falls. He
spoke there Nov. II on Safety,
and at the close of the convention
was elected treasurer of the as
ISOLATION for the coming year.

About You
By SKIPPY

Most of us contract what is
commonly known as a swell head
once in a while. And when we do
we can be quite sure that the wind
will be taken out of our sails in
short order.
But did you ever run into a
chronic swell head? This fellow
knows he's right regardless of
circumstance or of how much or
how little he knows about any
thing. He's the fellow who calls
the referee crooked when the game
goes against his team, and the
politicians, gangsters, because his
mar didn't win the election.
In all probability the undertaken
who is commissioned to bury him
will be a fool because Mr.. Swell

wondered, as l have, how Mr..
Swellhead got that way?
The guy will usually admit that
he isn't very happy. After all, the
whole world is laying for him. He
can't ever actually relax and en-
joy anything because he's contin-
ually on the alert for the seamy
side.
How to handle him? Ha! Suit

down. Ben Moreell, president of
the steel company. said it is "im-
possible" to operate the mill while
the railroad is idle.
The trouble began last April.
A brakeman on the railroad, j. A.
Herleman, was killed by a home
made bomb which exploded while
the train he was riding was cross
ing a bridge.
The railroad said the train
conductor, w. j. Legge. jr., saw
the bomb in Mr.. Herlemans pos
session and should not have per-
