Stain Heart Attack
Reported by Writer
BY the Associated Press

SALEM, Mass. June 30.-Col
Roland w. Estey, U.S.A., retired,
writing today in the Salem Eve
ming News, said Premier Stain
suffered a heart attack June 2,
while on a plane flight bound for
Chuvash.
Col. Estey said he received the
information from sources in Eu-
rope and that it had been turned
over to American intelligence
agencies.
The colonel wrote the plane was
en- route for conference in Chita,
approximately 100 miles north of
the Chinese border.
"The heart attack apparently
was of such a nature" Col. Estey
wrote, 'it seemed wise to return
him to Moscow and permit his
impersonator to proceed on the
trip"
A former OSs officer, Col. Estey
said that during the May 81 dem

Washington 10 Rank
In 10 Biggest Cities
On Basis Of Census
Figures to Be Given
Sunday Will Show
If D. c. Is 9th or 10th
By Crosby S. Moves

Washington will be listed among
the 10 largest cities of the United
States as a result of the 1850 cen
sus of population and housing, il
was learned today.
The Districts new position
among the big 10 became certain
with the release of preliminary
population figures for Boston
showing a total of 78S,552 resi-
dents.
The District population figure
to be released Sunday, is certain
to exceed this. However, census
officials would not predict the
figure.
Whether Washington will take
over ninth or tenth place on the
list depends on the release of fig
ures for Pittsburgh. In the 1910
census Boston ranked ninth. with
770,816; Pittsburgh 10th, with
671 $50, and Washington 18th,
with 663, ,091.
Lower Than Expected.
In nearly every case, 1850 CEN
sus figures for major cities have
been lower than expectations and
it has been disclosed previously
that Washington win be no ex-
ception. Indications are that the
District figure will be substantial
ly lower than the figure for st.
Louis. which ranks eighth with q
population Of $50. .523.

ON THE HAN RIVER DE-
FENSE LINE OUTSIDE SEOUL,
June 30.-South Korea cannot
win without American troops.
That's the grim truth. Ameri-
can advisers to what is left of the
South Korean army admit it.
The South Korean army now
attempting to regroup itself in
the red hills south of Seoul has
lost four of its eight divisions and
more than so per cent of its ef-
fectives. It has lost all of it's
artillery except for one 105mm.

bank of the Han River it aban-
doned most of its vehicles. gaso-

southwest of Seoul (but apparently

The confirmation was withheld
until receipt of news dispatches
from Washington that a Defense
Department spokesman said 40 to

break-through.

ther than 8 miles from Suwon by
l am. today and probably were
closer.
There was no information
whether American field headquar-
ters had left Suwon. Loss Of
Suwon would deprive the defense
OF the last remaining good -sized
air strip north OF Pusan. in ex-
treme southeast Korea, IT'S miles
away.
The broad Han River is the
principal natural barrier between
the Red-captured Southern capi-
tai and the temporary Southern
capital at Taejon, 30 miles south
of Seoul.
An earlier South Korean re-
port said Southern troops had
re-entered the suburbs OF Seoul
on the heels Of fleeing Commu-
nists. 1t was not clear whether
this report still stood, although
1t did not necessarily conflict with
the news Of Red Breakthrough
southwest Of the city.
Hard American air blows were
being directed against North Ko-
rean bases and installations.
Armor Ferried Across.
Military informants said the
Han River apparently was crossed
by the Reds during darkness after
two small advance bands OF In.
vaders had been wiped out by the
South Korean defense. The Red
armor apparently was ferried
across. as all bridges were re-
ported destroyed.
The highway route from the
river to Suwon and for a great
distance on southwark cuts
through fiat farmlands where
there are no fixed defenses.
Loss of Suwon would seriously
cripple the American ability to
supply the South Koreans with
arms, for no other strip north OF
Pusan can handle big transports.
The main barrier to a deep
southwark sweep by the invaders

American warplanes.
Hard American air blows also
were being directed against North
Korean bases and installations.
