Austin said the resolution "repre- sents the conscience of the people of the world" Then, turning to Red Chinese representative Wu Hsui-Chuan, he asked whether the Peoples Government in China recognizes this world conscience as something it ought to give weight to-" Wu did not answer the question specifically.
 In his address Wu ignored 20 questions put to him by Austin. He said the Chinese people are offering in great numbers to aid the Koreans and his government sees no reason to prevent the ''volunteers" from going to the front.
 Austin charged: "It is apparent to anyone that an operation of this kind is not organized in few days or weeks"
 The non-communis world steadied itself for grave decisions that must be faced. Its press told the people that the international situation is fraught with danger.
 In Paris, the independent So- cialist newspaper said the Third World War has begun in the Far east between the United States and communist China" It asked: Gan Europe escape catastrophe"
 France was in the throeS of a political crisis. Premier Rene Ple- win is asking a vote of confidence in an effort to save his govern ment tottering from communist brewed storm over defense minis ter Jules Moch.
 In London, Prime Minister Att lee and his cabinet met in emer- gency session to discuss the Ko- rean Crisis. Attlee then held a pri- vate conference with Labor mem bers of Parliament.

Korean Situation At A Glance --.
(COntinued from Page One)

Continued from Page One) there was no doubt that the Mac Arthur planned all-out offensive to end the war by Christmas had failed. The United Nations com mander acknowledged this. He said: The strength of the Chinese Red forces in Korea "has shatter- ed the high hope we had that the intervention . was only of to- ken nature on volunteer and in dividual basis as publicly an- nounced."
 United Nations intelligence of- ficers have identified 14 Chinese communist divisions along the northwest Korean front. Field dis patches show the Chinese are con- tinuing to pour across the from tier in great numbers.
 On the far west front, the U. S.. 24th Division, having withdrawn from Chongju, because of heavy Red pressure on the Eighth Army's right flank, was fighting against a vastly strengthened communist Chinese foe.
 U. s. Marines, wheeling west ward from the Changjin reservoir in an attempt to bring pressure to bear on the communist flank were stalled only four miles from the jump off point at Yudam.
 Wednesday. November 2s. 1850
 Badly mauled United Nations troops streamed south today in retreat under pressure of a three pronged attack by 100000 Red Chinese in Korea.
 The Allied forces poured across icy Chongchon River in northwest Korea to escape a communist en- circling movement. This was the point where Friday General Mac Arthur launched his ill-fated end the-War offensive.
 The retreat was carried out in near-zero weather. HelicopterS shuttled back and forth removing the seriously wounded from the front.
 Field dispatches said withdraw al of the Eighth Army's eastern flank was all but completed. But there were no immediate reports of the fate of the 24th Division on the extreme west front. It was last reported in the Pakchon area

 It. Gen. Walton H. Walker, back at the front after an emer- gency top commander conference with Macarthur in Tokyo, said the assault launched by his Eighth Army five days ago probably saved our forces from trap which might well have destroyed them" He implied the early at- tack by the Allies threw out the time schedule of the communists who have another 100000 troops being readied on the Manchurian border.
 At Kunu on the south side of the Chongchon River, Allied units were being driven back by tank led communist assaults. This was the first mention of armor being ued by the Chinese.
 U. N. forces held virtually noth- ing east of Kunu. Contact with the U. s. 10th Corps in northeast Korea was broken.
 Hordes of Chinese continued to pour through the Tokchn gap in the center of the peninsula. From here, the enemy has launched a smash designed to cut off Allied forces. Spearheads were aimed at points south and southeast of Ku- nu. The Eighth Army rushed up tanks and troops in an effort to hold ope nan escape corridor to Pyongyang, former North Korean capital
 Military observers said there was hope of salvaging enough AL lied manpower and materiel to set up a winter defense line some wher in North Korea.
 In Washington high U. S. de- fense officials expressed the belief Macarthur has enough machines and firepower left to prevent a military disaster. It was up to the United Nations to decide whether the supreme commander will be given sufficient men and broad ened orders to smash the Chinese offensive
 In the U. N. Security Council yesterday the Communist Chinese made ii clear they have no inten- tion of withdrawing from Korea.

trying to reach some agreement
"The publishers of the Spring
field newspapers indicated they
would not even let the printers
work at the old scale, with or with
out a signed contract" the union
officer further said.
In the 8 months of the strike,
the publishers have consented to
meet with a committee of the union
only once. At that meeting it was
agreed that the publishers would
arrange for further talks, but to
date no word has been forthcoming
from them, according to the union
scale committee.
In the last few weeks, organized
labor here has rallied to the union
printers and subscriptions of the
struck papers have taken a nose

Approximately one. out of every
three employed persons had been
out of work for A months or longer.
Last year, this proportion was only
one out of five.
a. Although unemployment is
more serious in certain areas of the
country than others particularly
New England, Middle Atlantic and
the West), it cannot be considered
purely local problem. Every type
of community has been affected.
5. All types of workers, young
and old, skilled and unskilled, have
been affected. Available evidence
indicates that older skilled work
ers have been particularly hard hit.
6. One of the chief reasons for
the increasing unemployment has
been a substantial increase in pro-
ductivity. The record expenditures
by American business for new ma
chinery and equipment in the post
war period have been reflected in
a higher output per worker. Unless
the market for the goods produced
by the nations factories is expand
ed, this will continue to mean few
er workers on the job.
7. At the present time, the gov
ernment's unbalanced budget made
necessary by the Marshall Plan
and heavy defense expenditures is
helping to keep down unemploy-
ment.
The problems raised by this anal
ysis cannot be solved overnight.

carefully checking over the large
list Of applications from various
pottery centers, wishing to vie for
the mythical championship of the

Generalware pitted against sani-

probability the same enthusiasm will
carry over from clay products to
lovers Of the diamond sport.
The Homer Laughlin nine head

among the top in the East Liver

play a brand of ball of minor lea

ents when they cross bats with
their brothers from generalware on
picnic day. All in all it stacks up
to be one of the best ball games
arranged by the sports committee
in years and potters and their fam
lilies are in for real treat.
P. K. Calhoon, chairman Of the
purchasing committee stated they
bought sixty pairs of the best
skates in town to give to the chill
dren for gate prizes. Also included
in the list of gate prizes for the
kiddies on picnic day are twenty
five children's wrist watches. The
boys as well as the gals will share

the outing bigger and better than
