U. N. Group on Korea
Bars Rhee Regime
From North of 38th
BY the Associated Press

LAKE SUCCESS. Oct. 13.-The
United Nations Commission on
Korea yesterday limited the au-
thority Of the Syngman Rhee
government to South Korea and
empowered Gen. Macarthur to
set up United Nations civil rule
IN North Korea.
The commission unanimously
approved at a close meeting an
Australian proposal to exclude
the Rhee regime from areas
beyond the 38th Parallel until
nationwide elections can be held.
This will have the effect of
putting Rhee before the Korean
voters again.
Immediately after the vote, the
commission cabled it's decision to
Gen. Macarthur. thus giving him
the go-ahead to establish civil
rule In the liberated northern
areas.
Military to Aid Government.
Under the Australian proposal
officers representing various ma
tional armies fighting under the
U. N. colors will be associated with
the civil administration.
Informed circles said the main
purpose of the Australian proposal
was to preserve freedom of action
for the commission in Northern
Korea until the elections are held.
The seven member commission
will start operating in Korea as
soon as the military situation per-
mitS.
The commissions action came
as the Russians delayed U. N. Eco
nomic and Social Council debates
on Korean relief and rehabilita-
ton by surprise attempt to seat
Red China.
Red Plan Killed, ILL.,.
After an hour and half of
heated exchanges between Rus
sia's A. A. Arutiunian and Ma
tionalist China's DR.. Tsune- chi Yu
the council defeated the Soviet
proposal II to 7. Britain, India,
Pakistan and Denmark joined
Russia, Poland and Czechoslovakia
in the vote. The United States
opposed the proposal on grounds
that the question of Chinese U. N
representation is for the General
Assembly to decide.
Australia's proposal to keep the
Rhee government temporarily out
of North Korea reflected the views
of some U. N. delegations that re-
siStance in the north will soften
If the Koreans are offered a
chance ultimately to establish a
broader-based government.
The commission is responsible
to the General Assembly but does
not have to submit its measures
to the Assembly for final approval.
1t has full authority to represent
the U. N. 'in bringing about the
establishment of a unified, inde-
pendent and democratic govern
ment of all Korea"
Members of the commission are
Australia, Chile, the Netherlands,
Pakistan, the Philippines, Thai
land and Turkey.

an hour in the opening lombard
nent at Chongjin yesterday.
The big battlewagon today
swung 100 miles south and lobbed

town of Tanchon while destroyers
and cruisers shelled Chongjin,
Songjin and the nearby town of
Sangpo.
The operation shattered Com
munist supply lines far ahead OF
United Nations ground forces roll
ing into North Korea along a 130-
mile fighting front.
Fierce Battle Raging.
At the west end of that front,
in an area that lies IS to rs miles
southeast of Pyongyang, a fierce
and confusing battle ragged.
American spearheads within IS
miles of Pyongyang were at grips
with Red troops. An estimated
10000 Communists fought south
of them and two Red divisions
were reported moving in from the
west.
A field dispatch today from
Associated Press Correspondent
William j. Waugh sketched these
developments:
Three United States 1st Cavalry
Division columns and British and
Australian soldiers moved against
Kumchon, about rs miles south
east of Pyongyang.
One column fought slowly up
the main highway toward Kun
chon, and was 4 miles south of
that base this morning after an
artillery duel that knocked out
two Russian-made tanks.
Two other columns operating
west and east of the road strove
to clamp pincers on Kumchon.
An estimated 10000 Reds were in
and south of Kumchon, giving
every indication of making fight
to the death. <
Pincers Close on Hanpo.
Another pincers being formed
by Americans and South Koreans
aimed to close at Hanpo, 8 miles
up the road from Kumchon.
United States 1st Cavalry troops
forming the western jaw already
were in the outskirts of Hanpo.
A heavy fight ragged there.
South Korean 5th Division
troops, seeking to forge the east
ern jaw, still were fighting north
westward toward Hanpo.
Complicating the picture, two
Red divisions were reported NOV
ing in from the west toward Pack
chon. 1t is Is miles southwest Of
Kumchon. The 1st Cavalry task
forces now west of Kumchon and
in the outskirts of Hanpo jumped
off from Paekchon. ANY move
ment of Red divisions toward
Paekchon would put them at a
point where they might cut in be-
hind the American forward ele-
mentS.
1,400 Taken in "a Hours.
In the center of the fighting
front, the South Korean 9Th di-
vision advanced north of Pyong-
gang, about 80 miles southeast of
Pyonkyang. Another South Ko-
rean division forced the Com
munists to withdraw four miles
in the central sector.
Gen. MacArthur's war summary
today said U. N. forces captured
more than 1,4O0 Communists in
the past "a hours-pushing the
total close to 10000 for the dura-
ton.
The array of warships operating
on the Korea east coast less than
120 miles from Soviet Vladivostok
was the largest yet assembled for
operations in that area.
They include the United States
heavy cruisers Helena, Toledo and
Rochester, the light cruiser

Unsuccessful
Candidate Says
Mail Was Held

r. Edwin Brown, Rockville at
storney, one of the unsuccessful
candidates for the Democratic
nomination to the Maryland House
of Delegates from Montgomery
County, has charged that his "Free
Democrats" campaign mail was
deliberately held up" at the Rock
vile post office. The charges were
made in letter to Joseph j. Law
Ter, Assistant Postmaster General.
Mr.. Brown claimed TOO pieces
of Free Democratic" literature
were mailed at the Rockville post
office on September 13 and that
another batch of 1000 pieces was
mailed the next day before 9:l5
A. M. The literature was mailed
in unsealed envelopes with two
cent stamps, Mr.. Brown wrote. 1t
later developed, said Brown, that
most, if not all, of the mail was
delivered on September 20, two
days after the primary election. He
named six persons who claimed
they did not receive the mail until
after September 20.
81 can only conclude that the
withholding of this mail was de-
liberate and intentional and that
the statement made to me by a post
Office aide on Thursday afternoon
that it had left the Rockville post
Office was untrue" Mr.. Brown
wrote. He has asked for a "full
investigation.
Postmaster Norman f. WARD
pointed out that the material was
third class matter, which "has ne
priority, and told the Sentine
that Mr.. Browns charges were
absolutely untrue"
Mr.. Brown said he did not ex.
pect priority" but did expect the
mail to be delivered in the usual
course Of business"

Because of the aptitude of the
pupils who have registered for the
program, only 16 of the 33 Rock
vile employers have been used.
Five of the students are working
outside of the Rockville area.
Students receive 21a credits for
the job on which they must work
a minimum of Is hours dufing the
school week. Most of them work
% or more hours during the week,
At graduation they receive the
General diploma, along with a
large percentage of students.
The Diversified Program is one
in which the student uses a job as
a laboratory to learn a trade which
he is unable to learn in his school.
The course was started by Mr..
Mullinix in the fall of 1949 at
Montgomery Blair High School.
Three schools in the county now
use the course-Montgomery Blair
with about 60 registered in the
class; Chevy Chase with 33, and
Richard Montgomery with 81.
The entire course in school in
the morning is built around six
questions: l. How to get a job;
2. How to get adjusted on a Job;
8. How to meet the ever recurring
problems on the job; a. How to
get ahead in the job; 5. When and
how to change a job; 6. How to
plan your life to be happy on any
job. English, Arithmetic and
Psychology are taught as a Core
in developing the answers to the
questions.
