Frenzied Chinese suicide troops
with demolition charges tried to
blow a hole in the Allied defenses
on White Horse Hill tonight
South Korean gunfire moved them
down short of their target.
A front line Allied officer said
about half a dozen fanatical Reds
with satchel charges and bangalore
torpodeos charged up the north
slope in complete disregard of their
own lives.
/ They fell with their charges un-
exploded.
At the same time two Chinese
platoons jumped off in a futile
attack. The South Koreans drove
them back, then launched an as
sault of their own. At last report
they were pushing up the slope
of one Of three knobs the Reds
captured earlier in the day.
AS the savage battle for White
Horse entered its eighth day the
South Koreans were in firm con-
troll of the commanding crest.
Korean Position Better.
The "Stay! Fight" troops ot
the Republic of Korea 9th Divi-
sion prepared bunkers and threw
up entertainments in confident
anticipation of renewed Chinese
assaults. A front line officer said
the ROK positions were in better
shape than they had been since
the big battle started almost a
week ago.
Gen. James A. Van Fleet, COM
mander of the United States 9th
Army. predicted the savage fight
ing for the vital high ground COM
manding the sprawling Chorwon
Valley may taper off.
Gen. Van Fleet told Associated
Press Correspondent Milo Farneti
the Chorwon area has been a SEN
sitive part of the front "but I don't
think it will be any longer"
Casualty estimates from the
ROK 9th Division indicate the
Reds have lost more than 10000
killed or wounded. Elements OF
three Chinese divisions have been
used in the bitter struggle.
The fighting on and around
White Horse and still the main
action along the 155-mile battle
front.
Patrol Clashes Elsewhere.
To the east, a smaller but still
bitter fight ragged over possession
of an outpost position. Chinese
took the position in savage hand
to-hand battle last night. U. N
troops stormed back this morning
Details were sketchy and con.
f1icting but indicated the fighting
was still going on at midday.
Only patrol clashes were re-
ported elsewhere.
Allied warplanes. tanks and ar
tillery poured a shattering rain OF
high explosives on Chinese posi-
tionS around White Horse.
U. N. gun crews zeroed in on a
group of Reds gathered on Little
Baldy, Chinese jump-off hill just
to the north. Tanks maneuvered
in the valley between the two hills,
pounding the Reds with high We
locity shells.
The air war kept pace with
ground fighting. The Far East

LOS ANGELES, Oct. II. -
Southern California, home o
Dick Nixon, still seethes over tn

nior Senator, now the Republican
vice presidential candidate.
There are rumors that "some.

southern tour was an outstanding
success, together with cheerful
Itidings from developments at the
Springfield headquarters while
the boss was away.
Voters DESERVING General.
Wilson Wyatt, Governor Stew
|enson's campaign manager, re-
ported on these developments
yesterday. His most significant
news was about an extremely
substantial" number of voters
who are deserting Gen. Eisen-
hover and climbing on the Ste
enson train.
Mr.. Wyatt came armed with a
fistful of letters and kilograms
which he said were typical of the
reports pouring into his head
quarters. Some of them told of
the formation of clubs of EiSen-
hover defectors, such as one in
Santa Fe called "Citizens-former-
ly-for Eisenhower"
In the course of his news con-
ference, Mr.. Wyatt also made
these points:
l. He does not believe that Gen.
Eisenhower, whatever liberal line
he may adopt in the closing weeks
of his campaign, can recapture
the early spirit of his crusade. :"
2. The reaction to the Nixon in
cident which first resulted in
IA great orgy"-has now reached
the morning after" stage.
3. Gov. Stevenson is too tied
up preparing for coming speeches
and taking care of vital state busi-
ness to hold a press conference in
Cne near future.
4. President Truman's campaign
efforts have been extremely IA
vorable" to the Democratic candi-
date and his running mate.
Trip Details Announced.
Mr.. Wyatt also released details
on the Governors coming 5000
mile, f1ve-day trip to the West
Coast. Like his earlier tours, the
candidate will cover most of the
route by air.
He leaves Springfield tomorrow
morning for a lunch-hour speech
in Casper, Wyoming, and a major
national network address that
night in Salt Lake City. Wednes-
day, the first stop is Spokane
Washington, then on to Pendle-
ton, Ore, and San Francisco
Thursday, by plane and automo-
bile, the candidate covers Califor-
mia down to San Diego. A total

The Growth Of American Reform Judaism

emphasis upon the prophetic portion of Scriptures
with it's vision of united world dedicated to JUS
tice and equality than upon the Mosaic section
with its preoccupation upon ceremonials. To
make Israers teachings clear to its followers as
well as to others, he advocated the introduction OF
the English language into the prayers hymns, and
sermons which were formerly uttered only in the
Hebrew tongue
Dr.. Wise. and his disciples. felt that Judaism
in the United States could conform to the spirit of
Americas low" churches. that is. those which dis
pensed with Formally and pomp. He rejected the
idea of Jewish hierarchy, and retained the con-
gregationalist pattern in synagogue government
He discarded the notion of personal Messiah and
substituted for it the belief in messianic age
which could be achieved by the application Of
religious ideas to daily life.
In the field of synagogual practice, Wise and
his followers introduced number of departures
from previous forms. In Reform congregations,
worship is conducted without hats Since the origi-
nal basis for covering the head was to show re-
spect the hats were removed to accomplish this
end in modern fashion In traditional synagogues,
men and women sit separately, but Reform
abolished this practice in keeping with modern
accent on sex equality. The Reform prayer-book
omits many references to the miraculous restora-
ton of the Biblical priestly system, since Reform
no longer clings to the hope that Israers destiny
is exclusively centered upon the Holy Land. Re-
form no longer subscribes to the belief that the
first five books of Scriptures diviney author
ed, but attributes them to inspired human writers.
Since the days of DR.. Wise. the other groups
in Judaism known as Conservatism and Ortho-
doxY. have adopted many of the Innovations which
he introduced.
Today, the Reform movement, as represented
by the Union of American Hebrew Congregations,
numbers over $50 affiliated congregations Over
100 of them have been founded in the last decade
as result of the Unions efforts to bring hitherto
unaffiliated Jews into their ranks. The American
Reform movement through the College-lnstitute
has also supplied rabbinic leadership for congrega
tons in every English-speaking nation of the
world so that today there liberal congregations
modelled on the American temples, in Canada,
England Ireland, Australia, and Israel.
