The $500, OOO, 900 relief and
rehabilitation project originally
planned for the Pusan perimeter
has been revised and already en-
larged several times. The Unified
Command in direct collaboration
with the Government of the Re-
public of Korea, the United Ma
tons and its Specialized Agencies
is giving the most careful at
tention to the urgent needs of all
devasted areas.
Meanwhile the refugee families.

SEOUL, Korea-In surveying
the enormous task the United Ma
tons faces in relieving suffering
in Korea, three points are of para
mount Importance.
First, the acute human need of
food, shelter, clothing and medi-
cine amoung the population.
Second, the amazingly vigorous
action taken by the Unified Conn
mand, in collaboration with the
United Nations and its Specialized
Agencies, to meet the emergency.
Third, the danger that the
emergency work of relief already
in progress will be stopped if
there is a lapse in the flow of ne
cessary supplies.
The close relation between these
three interdependent points must
be borne in mind to appreciate
the magnitude of the problem of
relief in Korea.
Once more in this country is re-
peated the story of a land deva-
stated by war. Once more refu-
gees trail along the roads by the
thousands backgto their homes.
Many will find their homes de-
stroyed or looted and will have to
face the approaching winter with
out food, proper clothing, medical
supplies and shelter.
The plight Of the homeless is
particularly severe in the large
cities that suffered the most dam
age in the recent fighting. The
port of Inchon and the city of
Seoul, the ancient capital of Ko-
rea, illustrate the hardships
brought upon the civilian popula-
ton by the violence of modern
warfare. It has been estimated
that one-half or more Of Seoul
was destroyed. The destruction in
Inchon covers at least two-thirds
of that port city.
It is feared that the lack of
shelter and warm clothing may
contribute to the spread of mass
contamination and disease. An in
tensive campaign Of incubation
has been started to moeulate the

BY a Special United Nations, Corresponds.

entire populations of Inchon and
Seoul against smallpox. Mass in
EQUATIONS are also in progress
against typhus, typhoid and chol-
era. The immunization campaign
is being carried out by Korean
doctors under the direct super
vision of the Unified Command,
which supplies the medical equip
ment and vaccines.
In order to make sure that
everybody is inocu1ated, a special
certificate is issued to each indi-
Yidual upon inoculation, which he
must present in order to receive
a free daily ration of rice. Inocu-
lations are being administered in
a number of stations established
for this purpose.
All day two long lines move
slowly through the stations which,
as a rule, are decorated with flags
of the Republic of Korea and of
the U.N. One of the lines passes
before doctors in charge of the
incubation; the other before the
rice distribution officials.
The present serious problem of
feeding the populations Of the de-
vastated cities, Xix e Inchon and
Seoul, is the result of the COM
plete cleaning out of all available
food supplies by the North Ko-
reans. The refugee farmer going
back to his parcel of land can aft
ford to feed his family by cutting
some of the special brands of rice
planted in Korea to ripen before
the large crop is ready for har-
vesting. However, this early crop
is not large enough to furnish any
substantial surplus for city use.
To feed the hungry populations
of the cities, the Unified Com
mand has brought in thousands Of
tons of rice to be distributed free
among the needy. The free distri-
button of rice began only a few
days after the liberati on Of Seoul
and will continue until the end Of
the year when the present rice
crop will be gathered and made
ready for the market.

hand polishing, before the crop is
for transport to the large
must all be done with many
men away on military service.
This means that this years har-
vest will not be ready before the
middle of December.
1t has been estimated that the
rice crop in Korea this autumn
will be the largest in recent years.
Authorities affirm that the coun-
try will have enough food to fill
all its needs and enough surplus
for the export trade. Last year
Korea exported to Japan a total
of 100000 tons of rice. o
The distribution of rice is han
died in a very colorful and eff
Gent manner. To appreciate its
significance, it is necessary to
have some understanding of the
organization Of the population in
the large cities.
Seoul is divided into seven dis
.tricts. Each district is composed
of several streets. There are 10,
20 or 80 tongs in each street. Each
tong contains 10, 90, 80 or more
pans. There are 10, 20, 80 or more
families in each pan,
The heads of families appoint a
pan leader. The pan leaders in
turn appoint a committee that in
turn appoint a committee that
rules the tong. The tong commit
tees name a street leader, who in
turn is responsible to the chief
of the district, appointed by the
mayor of the city.
Three hundred and seventy-five
tons of rice are distributed daily
in the various districts of Inchon
and Seoul. From the districts the
distribution is broken down in
several steps until it reaches the
individual family, each member
of which receives about two
handfuls of rice daily. This rice
ration, added to food bought To-
cally, represents a total of about
1900 Galleries daily per person.
In the first days Of the emer-
gency the rice was flown to Kimpo
Airfield in us. Army Transports.
Now most of the supplies come in
by sea to Inchon. The rice des-
tined for Seoul is transported in
box cars to a railhead on the west
bank of the Han River, and from
there, carried by men on their
backs to the edge of the water, a
distance Of about a mile over
rough terrain. The rice is then
put on barges and ferried across
the river. Here each sack is
weighed and distributed to groups
Of men, women and children from
each district who proceed to cart
it away by every imaginable
means of conveyance.
Early in September, the Com
mander-in- Chief of the United
Nations Command appointed US.

Agatha Adams's Last Writing Is in Quarterly
By Wink LocElair

The spring issue of the Caro-
lima Quarterly, which has just
come out, contains what is prob
ably the last piece of writing
done by Mrs. Agatha Boyd
Adams. Mrs. Adams died here
March IL. Her article in the Uni
versity literary magazine is
about one of her favorite sub
jects: Thomas Wolfe. 1t is called
Thomas Wolfe: The FriendI-
ness of a Lonely Man." and it is
the last of two articles Mrs.
Adams based upon her short
biography called Thomas
Wolfe: Carolina Student"
Charles E. Rush, director Of the
University Library, assisted the
Quarterly staff in preparing the
article for publication.
Mrs. Adams tells of Wolfe's
devotion to the University and
of his admiration for the village
and his friends here: Albert
Coates, with whom he carried
on a voluminous correspondence; ;
Frederick Koch, Horace Viii
liams, Paul Green, and Corydon
Spruill.
When Mrs. Ralph Wheaton,
Wolfe's sister, visited the vii
lage last year, Mrs. Adams was
one of several persons who spent
an evening with her in Paul
Green's study. This evening is
discussed at some length in the
Quarterly article. Others pres

was perhaps the one thing in him

Adams comments. Each person
there had some special memory
of him which unforgettably bore
witness to his gift of friendship.
This man, who according to his
own declaration had lived about
as lonely a life as it is possible
for a modern man to live,' had
an inextinguishable power to
live in the memory of his
friends. The solitariness, which
became more and more neces-

mapped out for himself, must

Stewart Claims
Western Movies
Are Important

Every leading man in Hollywood
should play cinematic game of
cowboys and Indians at least once
a year, says Jimmy Stewart.
"a western picture does some
thing for an actor that no other
run-of-the-mill drawing room
drama can do" says the lanky
star. "You take off your tux or
your British tweeds and slip on
a pair of chaps and a gun belt -
and all of a sudden you feel as
though you can lick the world"
Stewart, currently following
his own formula by playing the
role of sharpshooting cowpoke
in Observation-Disclosures "Win-
chester 70" at the Ritz Theatre,
says that getting that "Hopalong
Cassidy" feeling works the same
way with an actor as it does with
10-year-old kid standing in
front of a television set and emu
lating the antics of a western
hero.
"The kid looks on himself as
'Hoppy' and all of a sudden he's
full of confidence in himself"
Jimmy points out. "It's the same
way with a grown man. Getting
out on the open plains with a rifle
and a western hat sort of restores
his sense of balance between the
everyday world of modern movies
and the world of the sagebrush
and wide open spaces"

Ethel Waters
Biography
Disappointing

NEW YORK - (ANP)-Ethel
Waters has not made any friends
for herself or her people with her
biography. Appearing in the
Ladies Home Journal, the story
has won more criticism and con-
demnation than any recently pub
lished article.
One group of women felt so
strongly about it. A letter was be-
ing sent the publishers.
When the magazine carrying
the story appeared on Harlem
newsstands, there was a great
rush to get it, but few people fin
ished the story after they had
bought the book.
Many incidents told in the
story, they say, could easily have
been eliminated. Not only are Ne
groes complaining, White readers
are surprised and disappointed.
