Dean Escaped Taejon
Unhurt, Aide Reveals,
Giving Hope for Safety
By WiIIiom R. Moore


AN ADVANCED AMERICAN
COMMAND POST IN KOREA
July 24.-Maj. Gen. William F
Dean, the fighting commander ot
the fighting Oath Division, escaped
burning Taejon Thursday night
after personally leading a bittel
street-by-street battle against
tank-led North Korean hordes.
But the general stayed behind
in the mountains - now enemy
territory-to round up American
StragglerS.
When last reported early Friday
morning. Gen. Dean had not been
wounded, although others in his
party were hit in running fight
out of Taejon.
The account came from an aide,
1t. Arthur Clarke of Boone. Iowa.
1t. Clarke led a dozen men from
Gen. Deans party into American
lines at noon yesterday.
Listed AS Missing.
earlier the Army had listed
the 50-year-old Gen. Dean as
missing in action. A report to
Gen. MacArthur'S headquarters
by Col. Jimmie Kim, Gen. Deans
interpreter, said the general
had been wounded. Col. Kim,
hit by a machine-gun bullet in
the flight from Taejon, dropped
out because he could not keep
up with the party. He later
made his way to safety.
(There appeared to be some
confusion in the two stories.
1t. Clarke'S account, saying Gen.
Dean had not been wounded, is
the more recent0
1t. Clarke himself was wounded
in the shoulder. He related this
story of the Taejon fighting ano
flight:
Gen. Dean was in the thick OF
the battle. He directed bazooka
teams firing the new, king-size
rockets against Red tanks and
lugged ammunition for buck pri-
Yates.
BY nightfall the Korean Reds
were everywhere. Gen. Dean
gathered a small group in jeeps
and trucks and they roared
through the burning city.
Made Wrong Turn.
But they made a wrong turn
and ran into a Communist road
block. Machinegun fire sprayed
the convoy. The convoy doubled
back, ran into other North
Koreans.
The party abandoned their We
hicles and scurried across rice
paddles toward the hills. They
eluded the Reds and paused on a
mountainside to rest.
Gen. Dean said, You can wait
for me-" and trudged down the
mountainside toward a river, ap-
parently to round up other strag-
glerS.
Earlier Gen. Dean had ex-
pressed his concern in Taejon. Il
want all of you boys to get out, u
he told Pvt. Alfred Vessels of
Stanton, Tex.
The party waited two hours,
then left.

Yes there were some bad drops. Two of them came
in the war. The sharpest in May, 1910, when
Hitler swept through France and pushed the British
to the sea at Dunkerque. In that month, Moodys
average dropped from $37.29 to $29.16. The second
decline began in the summer of l94l when many
people thought we would become involved in the
and when relations with Japan deteriorating
rapidly In July, the averages stood $32.37, and
they slipped steadily downhill for nine months until
in April, 1912, they were $2361-the low point Of
the war.
Yes, those wartime declines were serious, but what's
most significant that neither drop bad the
we suffered in the l937-38 depression ohen the
,oord 0os at peace. In July, 1887, the average
$484l. In March, 1888, it was $685.
So much for history.
If it has application to the present, this would seem
to be the moral: The recent decline in the market
has been due in part to unreasonng fear Many stock
holders have simply sold their securities without
attempting reasoned appraisal of how might
really affect them.
When you see headline after headline reporting
that the stock market has been hit by another selling
wave you begin to get the impression that practically
everybody is selling. That's not In the four weeks
since began in Korea, all of the shares of stock
that have been sold on the New York Stock Exchange
still represent only about 2o of all the shares of all
the stocks listed on the Exchange
Mind you, we don't know if the people who owned
the other 1870 of the stock right wrong in just
standing pat Perhaps of them should have sold.
And perhaps some of them should have bought.
These are, of course the key questions of the hour
for every stockholder - for you Should you sit tight?
Should you sell? Should you buy? And what and
when?
These questions always worth good deal Of
thought, if you want to minimize the risk that you
necessarily assume in owning securities
In period of change and uncertainty it is especially
important that you try to find the right for
the that will best help you attain your
investment objective whether that be safety of capital
good dividends, price appreciation.
In weighing this problem, you will want all the
information and counsel you get.
Where you turn for help? There many
agencies ready to serve you-other member firms Of
