cast said today Allied bombings

If true the accounts Of destruc-
ton to industrial areas are vitally
important to United Nations forces

16,504 houses had been damaged
between July and August 8.
It listed as "out of operation
the railway factory, spinning mills

One theory advanced at head

possible reason, officers said, was
that North Koreans may be try
ing to arouse sympathy among
