"U. $. Could De-

WASHINGTON, (R)-Dr. Van- nevar Bush, one of the co-devel- opers of the atomic bomb, says this country without question" could destroy Russia" with A. bombs if she started a war in Europe.
 "We could destroy not only the key centers from which her armies would be supplied, but also politi- cal centers and the communica- tions of her armies on the march" l" Bush said on a Mutual Network broadcast last night.
 "Initially equipped with weap- ons and supplies, those armies might keep rolling for a time, but there would be no Russia behind them as we know 1t today.
 "The answer to this is that the armies will not roll. No all-out war is in sight for the immediate future unless they or we make some serious error indeed"

 r They are exemptions which are vigorously opposed by labor rep resentatives and labor-supported Legislators.
 The issue will arise again at to- days meeting of the Aleska Legis- lature on reconsideration notice by William Beltz, Haycock Demo- crat.

 The House meanwhile inserted a non-communist clause into the routine lobbyist registration bill. The Lower Chamber adopted by a vote of 16: to 8 an amendment by George Miscovich, Flat Republi- can, to make lobbyists to take a non-communist oath.
 The House then adopted an amendment by Wendell P. Kay, Anchorage Democrat, that would forbid lobbying by any commun- ist, fascist of subversive.

Korean Situation
 At A Glance .-- Saturday. March 3. 1851
(By The Associated PresO


 By The Associated PresO
 American marines pushed north of captured Hoengsong today on the central Korean front but heavy Chinese fire slowed their progress.
 In three days the leathernecks have ground ahead four miles across the jagged hills that rise to 1 800 feet around Hoengsong.
 There were signs that the Chi nese were pouring in reinforce ments in a gamble to save the last heights guarding the roads run ming north and northwest from Hoensong.
 The Marine column on the left flank pushed past the burned-out remains of a United Nations con- voy that had been ambushed near ly three weeks ago when the Chi nese and Korean Reds mounted their massive central front attack.
 In the Pangnim sector east of Hoengsong, American 7th Division infantrymen with flashing bayo- nets repulsed a Korean Red coun- ter-attack. The Reds struck about noon five miles northwest of Pang- nim, charging through an inten- sive artillery smelling. They swept up slope where the Americans were dug in. r
 The doughboys turned a wither- ing small arms fire on the advanc- ing communists. Many fell, but others of the 500-man force swept forward. Col. William .Buffalo Bib Quinn ordered a battalion of doughboys down the slope with fixed bayonets. The Reds broke and ran.
 On the fart west, Allied big guns bombarded the old South Korean capital of Seoul. Fires burned fur iously in the blackened city. The communists replied with artillery, mortar and tank shells.
 In the air, Okinawa-based B-29's blasted two airstrips near Pyong- yang, the wrecked Korean Red capital. The Far East air force said the Superforts pounded the airfields with 185 tons of bombs.
 Red jet fighters were sighted during the bombing runs, but they didn't challenge the bombers.

 United Nations forces grind slow ly forword against stubborn Red resistance in Korea; enemy ap- pears girding for possible 300,000- man counterassault on central and western sectors.
