1 New Enemy Grcups Spoiled; Fight Stepped Up
 Reds May Launch 0f-
 fensive; Mig Downed in
 20-Minufe Dogfight
By IOHN RANDOLpH

U. s. EIGHTH ARMY HEAD QUARTERS, Korea. Sept. l-lR- Four new Red divisions were spotted on Korea's east-central front today as bloody fighting continued on the slopes of jagged mountain peaks.
 AP Correspondent George Mc- Arthur said there were some indi- cation" the Reds might jump off shortly on major offensive.
 An Allied officer told McArthur the reinforced Red forces in the East could throw ga whale of a blow" at the JUN. positions. But he added he did not believe the Reds could appreciabIy dent the Allied line.
 Heaviest Fighting
 There was stepped-up action on land and sea and in the air. Allied officers said their divisions were engaged in the heaviest fighting since the now-suspended truce talks started in Kaesong July 10.
 Bombers and fighters attsckcd Red supply and communications ia cilities in North Korea.
 Communist and JUN. jets tangled in 20-minute dogfight high over northwestern Korea. All Allied Mai Winton c. Marshall of Raleigh. NC, was credited with probably destroying one Russian-type MIG.
 The ground fighting centered on the central and east-central fronts Gains of up to four miles were ham, mered out in the east, and some gains were registered in the center of the 100-mile battleline.
 AIl-Day Battle
 The JUN. Allies were stalled in a savage all-day battle for Bloody Ridge" on the east-central front. AP Photographer Bob Otey reported the Reds fought to the death from deep bunkers and machine gun nests.
 To the west, Communists coun- terattacked and took a hill they lost Friday. But the JUN. forces slashed back and recaptured it.
 When the fighting died down, more than 460 Communist dead were counted on the hillside.
 Apparently none of the new Red forces were committed to action today.
 One of the new units had been shifted from the western front, of- ficers said.
 The other three had been identi- fled before today, but they were not known to be within striking distance of the front.
 Red resistance was stiffening. One United Nations unit was coun- terattacked five times today. The attacks started before dawn and continued late Saturday afternoon.

 WASHINGTON. The recent midwestern floods have again shown with stark reality that the day of piecemeal flood control must end. Truly effective flood control must protect the millions of farmers on the land and in the small creek bottoms as well as our great cities and major river valleys.
 In those July floods we had graphic proof that no single me- thod of flood control car do the whole, watershed wide job. We say how some of our best soils be- came so saturated with the rains of May and June that even the pastures could absorb little more when the final big rain came. Even so, the water holding capac- ity of the soil helped moderate the effects of the run-off. Likewise we saw how downstream levees, high enough to have withstood the largest previous flood, were over- topped by this superflood of July.
 We are confronted with one in-

(raters Indicate Second kaesong Bombing; Unknown Plane Drops More Flares
By the Associated Press

MUNSAN, korea, 0ept. n United Nations liaison officer today told the Reds a plane may have bombed neutral Kaesong this morn ing. but if so it wasn't a United Nations aircraft.
 The Reds said a LIN. plane drop ped two bombs in the Korean cease fire conference city and called on the LIN. to investigate.
 A liaison officer checked and reported he found two holes in the earth that could have been made by bombs dropped from the air or detonated on the ground.
 He indicated the Reds staged the alleged bombing for propaganda purposes. A few hours later an unidentified two-engined plane dropped flares over this advance LIN. base.
 No Explanation
 Officials could give no immediate explanation. It was believed that an investigation was being made to determine if the flares might have been dropped by LIN. plane by accident or mistake. The flares burst over Munsan at Il pm. (6 am. PDT.
 Earlier Saturday the LIN. rejected a Red protest that United Ma tions warplane dropped flares over Kaesong Aug. 29 The LIN. Allies said flares were dropped that morn ing. but that they were dropped by a photographic plane working some 20 to 25 miles north of Kaesong.
 Air Force Col. Andrew J. Kin ney, senior United Nations Iaison officer, told a Red liaison officer in the conference city of KaesOng it was possible that plane had bombed the Kaeseng area early today.
 But. Kinney said, there was no evidence to show that the plane in- yolved was an aircraft under United Nations control.
 Called Liar"
 The Red officer, Col. Chang Chun San, accused Kineny of "ulterior motives" and lying"
 Kinney said. T can see no point ln continuing to discuss the matter further"
 Kinney told newsmen in Nun san the bomb craters" he saw could have been caused by a planted ground blast or by ex- plosives dropped from the air. He said there was no evidence to back up either possibility.
 Kinney led an Investigating team into Kaesong to look into charges made by the Reds earlier in the day. He was accompanied by Ma rine Col. J. c. Murray, three air force experts, staff assistants and four newsmen. The investigation lasted three hours and 50 minutes.
 The Reds had charged a United Nations warplane bombed the city at 12:30 a.m., Saturday. They said the bombs fell near the residence of North Korean It. Gen. Nam Il, senior Red delegate to the cease-fire talks.

In short, The west has asked
Russia to drop the "peace false
face" it wears and subscribe to
a detailed, guaranteed disarma-
ment", including atomic weapons.
Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei
Vlshlnsky is expected to reject the
western plan in the U. N. political
committee.
But the western nations are
eager to see what arguments Rus
STA will present, and also see how
the arguments will be weighed by
the so-called "neutrals."
At least the American drafters
of the plan believe that it will be
difficult now for the Russians to
twist western peace aims into the
usual ''warmongering' ascribed to
the west.
Here are some of the reasons:
l.. The western plan twice
mentions abolition of atomic
weapons as a main disarmament
goal. Vishinsky always has put
this prohibition first in his de-
mands a preliminary to effective
disarmament.
2. The plan proposes a 12-mem-
Der Commission, the 11-member
U. N. security council and Canada,
to lay the groundwork for gradual
disarmament.
Russia has criticized previous
proposals because they were not
under the security council Veto
which Russia uses so freely. This
, 1951-11-21

time the west does not object to
putting the Commission under a
veto power because it takes the
stand that if the Russians do not
agree to cooperate no disarma-
ment plan could be effective any
way.
3. The western plan also calls
for the Commission to replace the
U. N. Atomic Energy Commission
for Conventional Armaments. Both
Of the later would be dissolved.
The Russians previously have in
sisted on a single commission re-
presenting both groups.
4. The plan calls for ar event.
ual worldwide conference on dis
armament after the first treaty
steps are agreed upon. This could
include Communist China. Russia's
counter-plan has called for a
world disarmament conference by
next June /.
5. Russia previously has reject
ed any adequate inspection sys.
tenn as an alleged device for west
ri Spying" This argument
ignores the fact that American
atomic and other plants would be
wide open to foreign inspection
teams-and that Russia no longer
would have to spy on the west.
The western plan says that a
minimum degree of interference
in the internal life ofeach country
would be caused. 49,.

Love and a sense of security
the psychiatrists keep saying that
need these two qualities more
than any thing else, in the world.
That was about all the legacy
that Murray Moore and his wife,
Mary Jean, had to leave their
eleven children when a careening
car, going the wrong way on a
one-way street, struck their auto
mobile and killed them out in
Pontiac, Mich.
But it seems to have been
enough, a legacy richer than gold.
For when the dreadful news was
broken to Gerald, Is, the oldest
child of Murray and Mary Jean
Moore, he squared his young
shoulders and announced that he
would keep the family together.
"Dear God, l hope we don't
have to be separated" said Ger
aid. And the next oldest Moore,
Beverly Ann, ID, moved over by
her brother and said they could
{ manage "the children" They could
manage anything, said Gerald and
Beverley Ann, if only they were
all allowed to remain together, in
Guiding the six-months old baby.
Not even tragedy could shake
the love and security that were
the legacy Of Mary Jean and Muir
ray Moore to their children. We
can only imagine how happy was
the home provided by this labor
ing man and his wife when the
only fear haunting the children
was the fear of separation.
And it is obvious that the Moores
left their children something else,
too: character. And spunk, a nice,
old-fashioned American quality.
Because a boy of fifteen and a
| girl Of thirteen must have a lot
of both when they can tell the
Probate Judge that they can take
care Of themselves and the little
kids just fine if only they are left
together.

Sooner or later all adults begin
to view the younger generation
with alarm.

VINO geC IN PRINT. You don't or
ulna1lly hear much about KIDS like
The MooreS, or girls like Audrey
UDer.
In Pennington, N. j., we buy
our groceries from Audrey, who is
Just IL and doesn't weigh quite
LOO pounds. When her father died
suddenly of heart failure less than
d year ago, about all he had to
leave Audrey, her frail mother
and 1O-year old sister was the little
grocery store.
Audrey said she could run the
store; her mother wasn't sure. But
now, Mrs. ODER is certain. Audrey,
with the aid of an elderly man,
has run the store and earned a
living for her family without ask
ing favor or quarter Of anyone.
It's hard work for a girl and it
doesn't leave much time for fun.
But earned bread and independ.
ence taste mighty sweet in the
long run.
AS for the eleven Moores, They
are still together. A kind probate
judge has sent them home
They're to have their chance, with
the aid of grandparents and citi'
zens who have started a trust fund
There is even a rich couple hop
ing to adopt 'em en- masse. But il
the meantime, they are back in the
old home, SO rich in love and Sc
curity.
