The increase was only partly
seasonal, the bureau said, and
the large gain was one of a series
which saw non-farm employ

A 2,000-main Red attack was
launcnco in early morning against

There were no reports of enemy
advance.
A 1.000-man Red attack
smacked the central sector near
Changnyong. Heavy American
artillery fire hit the Red at

American artillery pounded
Red positions along the Naktong

The Americans recaptured Hill

THE AIR WAR
While bad weather virtually
grounded Allied fighter -bombers
today, Gen. MacArthur's head
quarters said B-29s plastered the
Songjin magnesium plant and rail
center. Songjin is a port on the
North Korean east coast about 125
miles south of the Manchurian
border. Other B-29s hit bridge
targets in North and Central
Korea.
An Air Force spokesman said
II sorties Of all types had been
flown up to 3 pm. Il am. EDIT.
Most were B-26 night intruder
missions. >'''' --
Flight after flight was sent
toward the battlefront but re-
turning pilots reported they could
not see the ground. -
Thunderstorms, low ceilings,
rain and fog screened the battle
line from pilots who had ham,
mered the North Koreans for 73
consecutive days. Even though it
was raining at most 5th Air Force
bases, mechanics worked on
planes. The rainy day off from
missions was a needed respite to
catch up on maintenance.
OTHER DEVELOPMENTS
The Communists kept the Allies
guessing as to where their next
drive would start. The whole
front could flame into a roaring
battle again shortly.
Fighting today cost the North
Koreans 3.100 casualties. These
were piled on the 1000 they had
lost in the southwest alone in a
week of fighting. There has been
no estimate of their losses from
Taegu to the east coast, but cas-
ualties have been very heavy there.
Across the so miles of mountain
front from Taegu to the east coast
the Red line was manned by be-
tween $4,000 and 5000 Commu-
nists. It was there that the 9th
Army spokesman said the Reds
were believed to be running out of
men and materiel power.
Red Column Attacked.
The Communists themselves
seemed to bear out his words
They sent a desperate truck col
umn of men and supplies into
the raking fire of B-26 night
marauders, which struck in the
eerie light of flares last night.
Air Force spokesmen said they
had no estimate of the damage
inflicted, but the miles-long col
umn was moving as ready prey
to attack with reckless regard fol
