.lhterracial
Council

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (ANP)-
Action was taken this week to set
UP an official In~terracial Council
in the city of Birmingham, Ala,
by the jefferson County Co. or
dinating Council Of Social Forces.
The in~terracial group will be
run by an unpaid white chairman
and a paid Negro secretary who
would carry out the programs of
the division. It would be part of
the overall coordinating council.
Under the proposed setup, this
council would be a group in which
Negro and white leaders "can dis
cuss problems which they have
in common. These would include
housing, health, police and fire
protection among Others"
The council is an outgrowth of
plans originally devised to set up

Morale and Training
OF Korea Red Division
Called Start|ingIy Low
By WiIIiom Jorden
Assoeioted Press Foreign Correspondent

. AsSoC'oieo Ttess FoFet9h correspondent
: TOKYO, July 20.-Morale and
training among some recently Or
,ganized North Korean divisions
was "startlingly low," a headquar-
ters communique said today.
Headquarters based its findings
on stories told by hundreds of
captured North Korean soldiers -
North Korean troops don't sur
render easily, headquarters said,
because they fear they will be
killed II they do.
Intelligence reports said cap
tured Reds explained that North
Korean successes so far were due
to superiority in numbers of tanks
and ground troops.
Prisoners said the first sign they
saw that other nations had en-
tered the war was American and
Australian planes overhead.
Headquarters detailed the ex-
perience of the 18th North Ko-
rean Division-now in the central
sector-as an example of the low
level of training and morale
among newly modified Commu-
mist units.
Built Around Veterans.
Intelligence agencies reported:
The 18th was built up around a
nucleus of battle-hardened officers
and noncomS with Manchuria
and China experience.
Specialists were added, includ-
ing tank and mortar crews, ma
chinegunnerS and other skilled
personnel trained in the North
Korean Army. The division was
brought to full strength in June
with the addition of draftees as
foot soldiers.
These draftees were called UP
in April and sent to the Young
Democratic Training School" !"
They were in garrison the first
month and in the field the next.
Some of the captured men said
they had fired as few as three
practice rifle shots.
On June 26 the students" were
given guns and ammunition and
told they were members of the
18th North Korean Infantry Diyi-
sion. The next day they went to
the front to take part in the in
vaSion of South Korea.
Afraid to Run Away.
The captured soldiers said they
were afraid to run away. knowing
they would be executed. They
were afraid to surrender because
they were sure the enemy would
kill them.
On July 4 the 18th saw its first
combat-against South Korean
forces near the Han River. The
poorly trained unit suffered heavy
casualties, the prisoners said, and
only the presence of their fanatic
leaders" kept them at the line
Even so. they said. many deserted
The 18th is supported on both
TANKS by better-trained North Ko-
rean units, the prisoners reported.
The 18th, the prisoners said, had
not encountered enemy artillery or
armor.
The captured Northerners said
the 18th probably would keep
fighting as long as it was winning,
