The 28th and 43d Divisions
both scheduled to join Gen. Eisen-

12-mile front held since Monday
by the 82d Airborne Division.

Umpires charged both the 28th
and 43d Divisions with heavy
casualties as the two former Ma
tional Guard divisions moved into
the line under heavy aerial at
tack. Clear moonlight aided the
aggressor planes.
The 28th Division is composed
largely of Pennsylvanians and the
43d of New Englanders.

of the bill moved that the House
agree to the Senate-approved
leave-cut rider and this was
quickly achieved on a voice vote
No dissenting voices were heard.
Also. the House quickly agreed
to the compromise on cutting
Federal personnel, whereby agency
personel funds are cut 10 per cent
Representative Jensen. Repub-
lican, of Iowa, sponsor of the
rider allowing agencies to fill only
one in four vacancies, told the
House he was perfectly satisfied
with the compromise. The House
then approved the personnel-cut
formula without further discus
sion.
Under the compromise, agencies
may reduce their personnel funds
by 10 per cent either by the Jen-
sen formula or through dismissals
or both.
Some DismissalS Seen.
Most agencies are expected tt
achieve the bulk of their employ

Patrol Clashes Break
Quiet Of Korea Front
BY the Associated Press

UNITED STATES 9th ARMY
HEADQUARTERS, Korea, Aug
.16.-Sharp, sporadic patrol clashes
in the intense and muggy summer
heat broke the quiet of the Ko-
rean front today.
Reds used mortars, machine
guns and some artillery to repel
Allied patrols from the HWachon
Reservoir to the East coast. Else
where there were only occasional
short fights as foot patrols met
suddenly, fought for few min
uteS and withdrew.
Along the Eastern front Allied
patrols pushed to the edge of
dug-in Red positions before Com
munist machineguns and mortars
opened up. Reds also hurled
several heavy barrages from their
Russian-type, self propelled guns
and 6-millimeter artillery.
Fifth Air Force planes struck
the Reds in 238 combat sorties
today up to 6 pm. Forty-eight
were in direct support of ground
troops. Fifty were pre-dawn at
'tacks by B-26 bombers and Marine
night fighters.
The 9Th Army announced that
African ground troops are in ac-
tion for the first time as a United
Nations unit. A briefing officer
said Ethiopian soldiers have been
in action for several days.
Presumably they were involved
in some of the patrol clashes
which flare daily across the front.

Navy Captain Fears Russia
will Dump Gold Hoard
BY the Associated Press

NORFOLK, Va, Aug. 16.-A
Navy captain. recently returned
from Russia, expressed fear yes
terday that the U. S. S. r. might
wreck this country'S currency by
dumping vast quantities Of gold
on the world market.
Capt. Robert J. Vaughan, who
spent 27 months in Moscow as
assistant naval attache, told the
Norfolk Lions Club that Russia
possesses immense amounts of gold
bullion which she has been hoard
ing since 1916.
What would happen" he asked.
"if Russia decided to dump it all
on the world market? 1t would
ruin the gold standard and our
entire currency system. 1t could
be as devastating as war"
Capt. Vaughan said the Soviets
have mined fabulous amounts OF
gold in the Kolyman River VAL
ley in Siberia. Tremendous de-
Iposits" were found there in 1888.

Kansas Flood Gift
Made by Worker
In East Germany
BY the As.oeiafed Press

BERLIN, Aug. 16.-The flood
victims of Kansas and Missouri
have received a contribution from
behind the Iron Curtain of Rus
sian-occupied East Germany.
United States High Commission
offices said today they had re-
ceived an anonymous letter from
an East German worker inclosing
S marks ($1.25). which, the donor
said, he hoped would SNOWFALL into
"a great many gifts to express
appreciation for the help given
Germans, although we are poor
fellows compared to the Ameri-
cans"
The man who sent the money
though he lived in the East, was
lucky enough to work in the West
and be paid in hard West marks
And that's what he gave.
The High Commission Offices
said they had sent the S marks or
to flood relief officials.
