Korea, July q
-Kaesong, proposed by the Reds
as the meeting place for a cease
fire conference. was the first large
South Korean city captured by the
Communists when the Korean war
broke out last year.
The city. with pre-War popu-
lation of about $4,000, has never
been out of Red hands since except
for a brief period last fall. The
Allies passed through when they
defeated the North Korean army
and pushed on to the Yalu River
1t was recaptured last winter by
the Chinese Communists. Allied
patrols entered the city late last
month and then withdrew.
Friendly guerrillas operated in
the area this spring.
No Reds Seen Recently.
An 9th Army source said last
night that recent Allied patrols
in the Kaesong area failed to flush
any Communists and that 1t was
believed the Chinese had pulled
out recently.
The Kaesor1g area is the only
place on the Korean battlefront
where the Reds have foothold
in South Korea.
The city lies in fat rice paddy
land, north OF the mouth Of the
Imiin River.

U. n. Experts Believe
Russia Pushes Truce
To Save Supplies
By Ernie Hill
Foreign Correspondent of The Sfer and
the Chieoeo Dolly News

UNITED NATIONS. N. Y, July
2.-United Nations delegates are
convinced that Russia is pushing
Chinese Communists into a Ko-I
rean truce talk by cutting down
on vital war equipment for the
Pelping government.
The Soviet, it is believed here.
regards the Korean war as al
stalemate which is s:phoning off
supplies. Experts on the Far East
say a coolness has developed be-
tween Moscow and Peiping over
Russia'S failure to supply more
planes and armored equipment
The Russians. who like to think
of themselves as realists, are be-
lieved anxious to cut their losses
and save their stockpiles for more
important Communist causes in
the Middle East and in Europe.
Red China, it is stated, appears!
willing to go on spending its man
power but must depend on Russia
for supplies which have not been
forthcoming.
An overwhelming majority here
favors acceptance Of China's pro-
posal for an armistice meeting
between July 10 and IS at Kae-
song, near the 38th Parallel.
Optimism Voiced.
Secretary General Trygve Lie
refuses to discuss full implications
of the revised meeting date and
place, but declares:
United Nations official circles
continue to express optimism that
this will lead to a cease-fire"
Three reasons are advanced for
the requested delay on the part
of North Korean and Chinese
Communists.
/. Indications are that the
enemy plans to bring up addi-
tional manpower and equipment
before a possible cease-f1re. since
terms probably will prohibit such
movements after a truce is in
force.
2. North Korean and Chinese
Communists undoubtedly want to
hold conferences with Russian Off
cials so that the belligerents and
their chief backer will agree on
peace terms. Y
3. The Chinese Reds probably
want some period for backing
down and face-saving at home
since they have been pledged to
drive U. N. forces out of Korea in
broadcasts up until 48 hours ago.
Amused by Requested Site.
Delegates are generally amused
at the Chinese Reds for insisting
that the conference be held on the
small triangle of land they now
hold south of the 38th Parallel.
There is so much sentiment for
ending the war that the delayed
date and the changed place of
meeting are not considered i'm
portant.
The vital points which the U. N.
will insist on, however, are that
the armistice must make no prom.
ises as to the future of Fornnosa or
for admitting Red China to the
peace organization. e
Mr.. Lie originally estimated that
July Is should be the target date
for winning a truce. tt now ap-
pears that cease-fire probably
cannot be gained this quickly.

The Communist agreement to
meet for ceasefire talks was
broadcast by Peiping radio late
last night. The statement was re-
peated by North Korea's Pyong-

Natures Children
Angel Wings.
Rx liIIinn Cox AtheY

Hundreds of thousands of shell
collectors prize a pair OF angel
wings, yet very few know anything
about the life of the maker. The
beautifully fluted angel-wing shell
Is found on the Atlantic coast
from Massachusetts, to the West
Indies on the beaches.
Few ever see the strange creature
who constructs this home. 1t is
hardly believable that a shell so
thin and fragile was ever meant
to stand the pounding Of a rough,
heavy surf or to live in rock crev-
ices.
It was not meant for such a
rugged life. If you walk along
the beach at low tide and look
closely into shallow pools Of water
and see a hole about one-half inch
In diameter with two siphons, you
are gazing at an angel-wing max
ing its living. Notice how the con-
slant flow of water flows into each
siphon. If you touch them, they
quickly withdraw.
If you dig down into the fairly
hard sand and mud following the
retreating siphons, you will dis
cover q softer medium in which to
dig. At this depth, the angel-wing
stops. You reach down and gently,
we hope, remove the mollusk from
his hideout. You wash of the sand
and find you have a pair of perfect
wings. The long siphons had
reached up IA inches or more to
the surface to suck in the food-laden
waters.
The makes of these lovely wings
Is sightless, totally deaf and has
no sense of smell. It is sort OF
rooted to one place. Their only
contact with the outer world Is
through their long slender tubes
These siphons are on hand with
the ebb and flow of the waters
overhead on the ocean floor. They
are wise enough to know by put
ting them in contact with the
water, there will be food. There is
no excitement. no fighting for ex-
istence, only routine.
