WasiIIa Native Fined for Killing, Selling Moose

WASILLA - Victor McNeil, Wasilla resident, was found guilty and fined $200 on a charge of killing and selling moose, in the court of U. S. Commissioner May Carter last Tuesday. He was fined $2OO and given three months jail sentence.
 McNeil has been under suSpi- cion of the illegal sale of moose meat since last fall, according to Holger Larsen, Fish and Wildlife Service agent. Last Tuesday MT. Larsen's Anchorage office re- ceived information that led to fur ther investigation of the McNeil home at Wasilla. Hidden in a cache near the house, investigat- ing agents found the heads of two COW moose, two bull moose and a calf.
 Questioned further, the Wasilla native admitted he had killed the animals. He said he had sold meat to Olaf Erickson of Wasilla and to Pasco Pete" Lucey of Palmer. Erickson also was tried in commissioner court at Wasll- la and was fined S75 for the pur- chase of Moose meat.
 Lucey, tried Wednesday in the court of U. s. Commissioner Dor othy Saxton at Palmer, was fined S1OO on similar charge.

NO WAY TO FORETELL TIME OF ATTACK

Promptly upon the invasion of South Korea the Sen ate Appropriations Committee summoned Rear Admiral Roscoe H. Henkoetter, director of the Central nte- gence Agency to discover whether his organization had been taken by surprise
 The Admiral pointed out to the Senators that North Korean forces have had the capacity to invade South Korea for year but nobody could predict the timetable under which they would march. He said that his agency had given information about continuing troop and tank concentrations the border between the two seg ments of Korea for the past two three months The most recent one June 20h five days before the attack.
 It would be perfectly silly to attempt to criticize the government of this county fo it's ailue to assume that troop concentrations in Northern Korea represented positive indication of immediate attack The strategy of the Communists, in many countries has been to mass military strength the frontier and to the prestige of force in connection with bargaining negotiations.
 Nevertheless think it is fair to observe that the invasion of South Korea should have been surprise to the United States Government. The time may have been uncertain but the probability of such invasion has been apparent since the division of the country into two segments A Soviet-dominated North Korea reso- lutey refused participate in the efforts of the United Nations to set up republic and there has been abund ant evidence of an intention to unify" the country

Wednesday. July IF. 1850

South Korea before the massive relentless offensive of the North Korean communist invaders, fell back today Wednesday, behind the important Rum River to posi- tions they hope to hold until power for a counterattack arrives from across the sea.
 Tank-led North Koreans, plung- ing south behind mortar and ar tillery barrages, drove American forces out of Chochiwon with pre- sumably heavy casualties and pushed them back seven bloody miles to the Rum in what was de- scribed by U. s. hadquarters as an orderly withdrawal.
 The northern troops pressed along the north bank of the Kun, last major barrier before Taejon, emergency South Korean capital 15 miles south. The Americans hold Konju on the south bank.
 A communique of Gen. MacAr- thurs headquarters, tagging be- hind battlefront reports, acknewl- edged that the strong communist pressure against outnumbe e d American battalions in the battle area north of Chochiwon "may compel further withdrawals be- hind the Rum River" The shallow river. a quarter mile wide north or Taejon, with banks 10 to 15 feet high, presents a considerable military barrier.
 Red pressure against South Ko- rean forces between Chongju and Umsong, northeast of the main battle area, resulted in a planned withdrawal to defense positions along the Pogang River,"-the com munlQue Sald.~
 East of Chungju a North Kore- an force was reported attempting to ford the winding Han River. The Fifth North Korean Division, moving east in the same area, ap- parently was trying to outflank the eighth South Korean division and elements of the Red force were probing south toward the sixth South Korean Division.
 The 18th North Korean division was reported moving toward a juncture with the Reds Fifth at Chungju.
 The attack which drove Ameri- cans behind the Rum River de- lenses began at midmorning after the Reds used their deadly and now familiar flanking and infil- tration tactics.
 A board flood dike about 20 feet high and 30 feet thick at the base offers a strong defense position. U. s. engineers mined the modern bridge, but dispatches did not say whether it was blown up yet.
 A bitter, beaten little band of CPS sprawled in exhaustion on sunny Korean hillside this after survivors of one of the most savage battles fought by Americans in the Korean war.
 Their bitterness was more pro- than their exhaustion, which was almost complete. They talked of encirclements and infil- trations.
 A grimy, bewhiskered, blood shot-eyed officer gritted his teeth:

Korean Situation At AClance ...

Al ton Russian-made monsters, spear headed the new assault, knocking out some American machinegun and light artillery positions. At least two American tanks were knocked out.
 Associated Press correspondent Tom Lambert at the front was un- able to give the location of the battle because of security regula- tions, but presumably it was north of the Rum river, about 13 miles north of Taejon, emergency capi- tai of the South Korean Republic.
 Front dispatches said the tanks burst out suddenly, heavily cam ouflaged with. tree branches.
 With see-saw battle raging along the west Korean front, U. s. and South Korean troops got sledgehammer support, heaviest thus far, from Allied planse. AL lied headquarters said the planes knocked out at least 39 tanks and 218 other Red vehicles Monday.
 This meant the communists lost at least IA tanks thus far, but they kept pouring their armour into four major sectors stretching across a 45-mil-wide battle area. The armor was wide open to air pounding in excellent flying wea- ther.
 Three Russian jets-Yak-15's- made their appearance, but did nothing.to stop the terrific maul- ing of North Korean forces by AL lied aircraft, which suffered no losses. B-2O superforts, meanwhile pounded communist targets be- hind their battle lines.
 A regimental adjutant at the front reported to field headquar- ters that Ray Richards, correspon- dent of the International News Service, and Cpl. Ernie Peeler of the Tokyo Stars and Stripes, the army newspaper, were killed on the war front Monday.
 On the world diplomatic front, Egypt swung into line with other members of the United Nations security council in condemning the North Korean invasion of South Korea as open aggression.
 In Washington, informed Sena- tors said they expect 100000 man increase in the armed forces, at an initial cost of $350, 0,000,O00 as the first step in building tow ard decisive victory in Korea.
 Republicans called upon the ad- ministration of President Truman to take them behind scenes on di- plomatic and military moves in the Korean situation and to let them share in major policy deci- sions.
 In Moscow, the Soviet govern ment directed note to U. N. sec cretary-general Trygve Lie, de- nouncing the security council res olution to use the U. N. flag and U. N. command in Korea as il- legal. The note repeated the Sov- jet contention that U. S. armed action in Korea was the equiva- lent of "direct aggression on the part of the United States" and it said the U. N. resolution was "gross violation of the charter.
 The U. s. defense department said in Washington it was advised

 useless damned war in allmy life"
 Bitter though they were, this CT band had fought a gallant delay ing action against tremendous odds. Two days ago this handful of soldiers was part of a sizeable unit. In a morning long battle with North Korean tanks and troops yesterday there were whit tied down. Many of the original group still are in the hills after a plunging rush from their encircled positions. But many of them wounded and dead alike-are in North Koreans hands or territory
 For the Americans it was the beginning of their second week of ground action-a period of dogged delaying tactics and retreat before powerful forces armed plentifully with Russian materiel, including monster tanks.
 Anger swept American lines over the execution of at least 18 American prisoners of war. This was condemned in a communique of the U. N. commander, Gen. MacArthur, as "barbarity and murder" He said North Korean war leaders will be held responsi- ble. Headquarters said it had proof of such atrocities in official photographs showing Americans with their hands tied behind their backs, all shot through the head.
 In Washington, Sen. Bridges, New Hampshire Republican, de- manded an immediate protest by the United States and the U. N.
 Both Houses of Congress heard increasing demands that other members of the United Nations send in ground troops to share in the battle for Korea, which high army quarters feared would be long and bloody one.
 There was deep foreboding over the possibility that the Korean war might spread elsewhere. The appearance of Russian jet fighter planes on the battlefront, as we'll as reports that volunteers" from Russia and communist China might enter the fray, added to the foreboding. Washington gravely studied dispatches from Hong Kong reporting a continued move ment of Chinese communist troops to Manchuria from South China.
 Secretary of State Acheson said today conferences are going on as to help which other nations may give in the Korean fighting.
 He told news conference the state department is conferring with the defense department on suggestions of help.
 Obviously offers of troops from other United Nations members would be most helpful, Acheson added.
 Senator Tydings D.-MdD said yesterday theer have been offers of troops from other U. N. mem | bers and that they have been acS' cepted. His statement was made after a meeting of Gen. Omar Bradley, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, with the Senate armed services committee. Other committee members indicated they understood there had been

MUST MEET ENEMY ATTACKS
Wednesday. July l2. 1850

We are not among those who afraid of Soviet Rus sa or the use of the atomic bomb We are among those who hate war and would do almost anything without yielding in principle to avoid struggle which will in crease the misery of the world
 Nevertheless when the enemy salies forth to battle, and aims it's thrusts at the deocracies there is nothing left for free peoples to do but to grd themselves for the ordeal and let the enemy have it quickly and as pow erfully as possible.
