Battles Raging Along Western Korean Sectc
HOUSE WOULD LIMIT REALTY BUSINESS TO U. S. CITIZENS

A bill to license and regulate real estate brokers and salesmen and creating a Real Estate Board was considerably worked over yes terday afternoon by the House of Representatives which then sus- pended further action upon it until February 16.
 The move for suspension was made by Rep George Miscovich, who said he desires to get the op- inion of real estate dealers in the Fourth Division and other parts of Alaska.
 During the forenoon session the House had increased the bond re- quired of real estate brokers and salesmen from flat 5000 to $4,000 for brokers and $2.000 for salesmen. Citizens Only
 In the afternoon the House ad- opted an amendment, 12-10, to limit the practice of real estate broker age or salesmanship in Alaska to citizens of the United States.
 Rep. Frank Johnson protested a clause that would have allowed prac- tice by "bonafide applicants for cit izenship," asserting that this same clause in a fisheries law had per i mitted alien fishermen in Alaskan waters. .....-.-
 Corporations would be allowed to engage in the real estate business in the Territory if the president of the company and two-thirds or mere of the directors or other man. aging officers were citizens, and if ! 75 percent of the voting interest is owned by citizens.
 No "Grandfathers"
 On motion by Rep. Alden Will bur and a vote of 12-10, a grand father" clause was stricken from the bill. As it now stands, all real ] estate brokers and statesmen, ever though they are now in business in Alaska, will be required to pass an examination before being licensed
 The bill was further amended to place the power to revoke licenses 1 and carry on investigations in the Real Estate Board rather than in the hands of the Real Estate Con- missioner.
 The House set 1O:30 this morning as the time for Committee of the Whole hearing on House Bills 9 and :, 10, both having to do with increases in unemployment compensation benefits, Rep. Glen Franklin mov- ed for the hearing, announcing that he wished to question officials on the condition of the Employment Security Fund.

JUN FORCES EDGING up
 ON SEOUL.
Chinese Bodies Scattered All Over Front-J -John-
 son Making Tour
lBy Associatcd Pressl

Allied Forces today were reported less than seven miles from bomb- wracked -blackened Seoul.
 Earl D. Johnson. U. s. Assistant Secretary of the Army. said he vis- tied troops within that distance southwest of the former South Kor- can capital. His trip indicated that LIN clements actually were even closer than seven miles.
 Battles ragged along the western sector late Saturday. Johnson, making a personal in- spection tour on the tenth day of the Allied limited offensive, said he saw Chinese bodies all over the place."
 LIN Units Push On
 While LIN units pushed north- ward, Red China's Foreign Minis ter Chou En Lai broadcast from Peiping that Communist China will ignore the good offices committee of the United Nations, which de- clared Red China an aggressor in Korea.
 Chou accused the United States and tits accomplices" of wanting war and blocking the path to a peaceful settlement in Korea.
 Aside from the sector visited by Johnson, the picture of the western battle line in relation to Seoul was not clear.
 Shooting F0ray
 AP Correspondent Stan Swinton said one LIN task force stabbed through to Sango, seven miles south of the Han River and 10 miles south of Seoul, in a shooting foray behind enemy lines.
 i Johnson, a member of the Peace Mission to Japan, headed by John Foster Dulles, said he was amazed at the terrific toll taken of the Chi nese." He reported Chinese bodies all over the place"
 Pour Reds Into Front The Communists, however, were pouring more men into the lines south of Seoul. The U. s. Fifth Air Force reported 1,400 Red vehicles moving southward. Night intruder planes smashed at the traffic. clogged highway. enemy-held towns and troops concentrations. A U. S. Eighth Army brief of- ficer said the enemy suffered nearly LOGO casulties in killed, wounded and prisoners Friday. Parachute flares lighted the western front last night as Allied artillery poured | thousands of shells into the Chinese positions.
 Fierce Turkish infantrymen stormed a Red-held hill eight miles northwest of Wuson today after the i artillery had smashed several small Communist counterattacks. Temperature Below Zero ! The temperature dropped over- night from comparatively mild and 1 slushy weather to 25 degrees below ! zero in an area where LIN troops yesterday drove ahead as much as ; two and half miles. Tn Tokyo it was believed that battle development in the next few days will detrmine whether the AL lied Forces can drive to the 38th Parallel, but no high ranking officer has indicated that an advance to this point is included in present of fensive plans.

HOUSE MEASURE WOULD SET up
 INVESTIGATORS
Legislative Council Pro- posed in New Bill
 by Rep. Kay

 The Council would be authorized to examine and inspect all files, re- cords and accounts of Territorial offices and departments.
 Three Senators and four Repre- sentatives, including the President of the Senate and Speaker of the House, would constitute the mem bership of the commission.
 Airfields, Roads
 Four new memorials also hit the hopper in the House this morning. They seek airfields at Valdez and Seward, a military road from Una lakeet to Kaltag and base miner als purchasing depot in Alaska, to be set up by the Reconstruction Fi- nance Corporation.
 A major part of the hour and a half session of the House this morn ing was devoted to Committee of the Whole hearing on bills to in crease unemployment compensa- tion benefits and dependency al- 1owances.
 John Mclaughlin, director of the Unemployment Insurance Division, Employment Security Commission of Alaska, was the only witness to appear this morning.
 He answered questions of the Representative regarding benefit payments, the increase or decrease to the fund, the effects of experi- ence rating credits and of seasonal and non-seasonal work schedules.

NOINDI(ATI0N
 RAIL STRIKE
 BREAKS SOON
Federal Court Action Taken Against Railway Brother
 hood-Trdins Cancelled
(By Associated Press)

Federal Court action and urging from the White House brought no indication today of an early back to-work move by sick striking railroad switchmen.
 Although no break appeared in the crippling walkout efforts to reach a settlement in the lengthy dispute were taken by the National Mediation Board in Washington.
 Damaging Blows Struck
 Meanwhile, the five-day walkout had nearly paralyzed most of the nations transportation and struck damaging blows at other key indus tries. It threatened to strangle many war and civilian operations.
 More rail workers joined in the work stoppage. The number ot workers made idle in other indus tries scared past 150,000, with indi- cations of thousands more being laid off if the strike continued. The situation in the steel industry was reported growing rapidly worse"
 Contempt Action The government moved for a speedy decision in Federal Court on contempt action stemming from similar walkout in mid-Decem- Der. A hearing in Chicago yesterday had been continued for week but arrangements were made late last night to resume today.
 U. s. Attorney Otto Kerner, Jr. said the government planned tc press the contempt action ito an early conclusion"
 Concerted Action
 Judge Michael L. Igoe ordered the brotherhood to produce the names of switchmen who reported "sick" in the December walkout The government is seeking to show that the work stoppage was con- certed action and that sickness was confined to brotherhood mem- bers.
 The current walkout is similar tC the December stoppage, with raj workers reporting sick" But un- ion attorney Walter N. Murray, tolc the court it was not the unions fault the men were absent. He saic they were merely "disheartened' over the delay in settlement oi their contract demands. President w. P. Kennedy did not testify. Security Injured The work stoppage, the White House said yesterday, is directly injuring our national security" anc that "the American people can toll crate no other outcome" than re- turn to work.
 In Chicago, the Army Quarter master Depot said that 250,000 com. bat rations for American troops 1T Korea started moving after a three day delay.

Highway Dept.
Meeting Damaged
Road Emergency

Highways in this county which
were badly damaged by the se-
we're weather of the past winter
may be repaired at much earlier
date than was thought possible as
a result of an appeal made to the
paving contractors of the state to-
day by the State Highway Depart
ment. Because its forces are in
adequate to do the work, the De-
partment petitioned the Control
ling Board for permission to let
emergency contracts for the re-
pair of winter road damage.
The contractors of Ohio are be-
ing called upon for the first time
to do this maintenance work, due
to the fact that the damage is so
extensive that the Highway De-
partnrent Division forces are not
large enough to complete repairs
within reasonable time.
The contract method is being
tried now to put the roads in good
repair for the travelling public as
soon as possible and to prevent
further delay in the Highway De-
partment's surface-treating and
resurfacing program for 1851.
