 (P) correspondent Don White head, veteran war reporter with the U. s. 25th Division said the Allied pre-Christmas all-out drive to end the war twas threatened with complete collapse"
 The offensive that rolled for ward for 48 hours was stopped cold. "Chinese and Korean Reds have dealt stunning blow to U. N. forces," Whitehead said.
 Only on the extreme northeast front did the U. N. forces make headway. Elements of the Repub- lie of Korea Capital Division pushed on from captured Chong- jin on the east coast. They moved swiftly north toward the Man churian border town of Hoeryang, 35 air miles ahead of them on their dash to the Soviet Siberian border.
 Whitehead said on all other fronts the U. N. forces were on the defensive after giving up most of the gains won in two days of fighting.
 Reserve units of Americans, British and Turks were poured into the lines in an effort to hold the eastern section of the winding 8O-mile front stretching inland from the Yellow Sea.
 A spokesman at General Mac Arthur's headquarters said the Chinees counterattack was expect ed. He said the Allied drive to end the war by Christmas was stopped temporarily but would continue. He described withdraw als as s'limited" and added that in any drive it can be expected that the foremost spearheads have to sacrifice some territory.

Monday. November 27. 1850

Fierce North Korean and com munist Chinese counterattacks hurled back United Nations forces today and stalled General 'MacAr- thurs offensive aimed at ending the Korean War by Christmas.
 Field dispatches indicated heavy Allied casualties. An indirect cen- sorship settled over operations as a security measure.
 The heaviest Red pressure came in the center of the peninsula, where the enemy apparently was trying to turn the entire right flank of the Eighth Army in the Tokchon area.
 The communist captured Tok- chon- long the worst bulge and weakest point in the Allied line from the South Korean Seventh Division Monday.
 U. s. First Cavalry troops held in reserve were thrown into the sagging line to bolster the shat tered Korean division. The me- chanized cavalry troopers were setting up roadblocks southwest of Tokchon on the road to Sun chon. These defenses lie halfway on the Tokchon-Pyongyang high way, indicating the Red push may be directed at recapturing the for mer North Korean capital.
 The pressure of the 100,000-man Red Chinese armies pushed back the Allies on the entire northwest front. Piercing bugle calls rang

Allies May Sign
 Japanese Treaty Without Russia

WASHINGTON, (R - Russia's criticisms of American proposals for a Japanese peace treaty were regarded here Saturday as the launching base for a new Soviet propaganda drive against the United States in Japan.
 The Soviets raised half a dozen critical questions in note re- leased Friday. One as to whether the United States and other na- tions might conclude a separate peace with Japan.
 Officials said that the Russians will get an answer to all their questions, and indicated it prob ably will be made clear to them that a separate peace is possi- bility if they are not willing to participate. The U. S. wants an early Japanese peace settlement with Soviet participation if possi- ble on a reasonable basis but without it if necessary.
 American officials are hopeful but not too optimistic about the prospects of Moscow's coopera- ton.
 The fact that the Kremlin made the American proposals public, when they were supposed to be tentative and confidential, and re- leased their critical questions at the same time was taken as a sign that they are more interested in propaganda than in private diplo- matic negotiation.

 Hawaiian casualties in the Ko- rean war now total 425, a rate proportionately about five times as great as that for the Continen- tai United States, Harrington said.

RAGrIME JUMPS IN

Down in the deep recesses of
rural Virginia some years ago an
unlettered preacher was pastor
ing the Community Church. He
was doing fairly we'll with his
flock until a wave of ragtime
music began to sweep the coun-
try. This new music hit even
this remote section with bang.
The good minister then erperi-
enced considerable difficulty in
keeping his young folks in the
straight and narrow path.
Coming TO his church on Sun
day morning the minister en-
countered two young men lean
ing against the church singing
one of the late ragtime tunes.
He reminded them then and there
and informed them that the
ground upon which they stood
was Holy.
At the opening of service the
good pastor again took the sin
ful boys to task before the con-
gregation and he proceeded TO
pray for the boys. In the course
of his prayer the preacher asked
God to forgive them for their
sins. And seemingly in order to
get his point over the preacher
shouted And Lordl These sin.
ful creatures were standing ON
the sacred ground of the church
whlstling the following ungodly
tune: where upon the minister
whistled very fluently several
bars from "Alexander's Ragtime
Band"
