Standing left to right are Secretary of State Dean Acheson and Secretary of Defense George C. Marshall, s they met for the third meeting on the Korean crisis. Prime Minister Attlee flew from Britain to confer with President Truman.— (Nea Telephoto.) Truman, Attlee Would @ Consider Peace Offers BY JOHN M. HIGHTOWER WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.— (AP) —President Truman and Prime Minister "Attlee appeared ready today to con sider any reasonable proposal for a Korean settlement if it does not call for *‘appeasement” of the Chinese Com munists. At the same time officials here disavowed any real optimism over the prospects for acceptance by Red China of an appeal by 13 peace seeking Asian countries for the Communists so cease fire and negotiate a settlement. .. . As the Anwﬁ B talks entered theirg 'th day (3:30 p. m. EST) the President and Prime Minister were concentrating on plans for a speedup’in:Western European rearmament with the prospect that Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower can be named as Su preme Commander in a week or 10 days. Differences with France over including German units in a West ern European defense force were evidently resolved. France an nounced last night that she will call a meeting of the Western European nations in Paris next month to draw up plans for a European army. French Agreement France agreed to immediate formation of West German com hat teams in the combined force— a victory for the U. S., which has been insisting that Germans should be incorporated into a European Army as soon as possi nle The French previously had in- Visted on creation of a unified de ‘“nse ministry and on the pooling of Wester Europe’s coal and steel velore using German troops. But the critical Korean situation ‘ontinued to overshadow the Washington conference. Evidence was that if any firm indication of Jtaceful action by the Chinese -ommunists was received here it “ould be immediately eonsidered by, Mr. Truman aud Attlee.

COLD HITS SOUTH Midwest Staggered By Sub-Zero Temperatures By The Associated Press An early December storm, bringing heavy snow.and sub zero cold to the midwest, swept over parts of the south and headed for eastern states today. . It was below zero as far south as Arkansas early today. Sleet and snow swept across Alabama. Parts of Dixie shivered in below freez ing readings and the freezing temperatures extended all the way to the west Gulf coast, Snow piled high over the mid west—up to a depth of 28 inches at Duluth, Minn.. at the western tip. of Lake Superior. There was snow all over the middle and up per Mississippi Valley and the Lake Superior region. And more fell today. : Rain changed to snow in parts of Kentucky and Tennessee. Two-thirds of Tennessee was gripped by the cold and snow. There was rain in the southern Great Lakes region and south ward into Florida. The cold weather, after moving southward to the West Gulf States, pushed slowly northeast ward into the lower Ohio Valley and Tennessee. Deaths From Cold The cold and snow was blamed for at least seven deaths in the storm belt. And in Kansas City the storm caused discomfort for thousands, f A pipeline break lett some 4,500 homes in one pari of Kansas City without =~ gas. Several hundred homes also were without electrici= iy and telephone service as &n Allies Braced On New Defense Line ACCREDITATION G .S AI System Polici CAMILLA, Ga., Dec. 7—(AP)— Bitter resentment among Georgia Legislators against present “school accreditation policies was report ed today by Rep. Frank Twitty, floor leader of the Georgia House. Legislative action to create a new system for accrediting schools was predicted in a preview of ma jor issues to come before the Gen eral Assembly, convening in one month. The floor leader, one of the most powerful single members of the assembly, also reported after two days of conferences in Atlanta with state officials and other leg islators: I—A long-postponed three per cent general sales tax measure will pass. But opposition may be greater than expected due to the world crisis and federal tax hikes. Sentiment Grows 2—Sentiment is growing against a proposed $15,000,000 income tax inerease. It may be killed, on the theory that the sales tax will pro duce enough revenue for the state at this time. 3—Home rule, a perennial bat tleground issue, will be introduc~ ed again and will have his support “if the plan is reasonable.” Under home rule, cities and counties would be given broad powers to handle affairs now requiring leg islation by the assembly. 4—Opinion is now divided al most fifty-fifty on Gov. Herman Talmadge's oft-repeated proposal to abandon the $7,000,000 state property tax..lf the tax is lifted, some step should be taken to con tinue revenue from utilities, cor porations and big property own ers living out of Georgia. ¥ < s—Some l;on?u of ang—masking ill prak “will-pass if sponsors wﬂ%t a bi-partisan effort and not get involved in gohﬁw Such a bill,aimed at the Ku Klux Klan, has been defeated the past two sessions in bitter rows. 6—There is talk of some sort of bill to overcome defeat by voters of a bill to extend the county unit system to general elections. One idea is that the system could be extended simply by legislative act instead of a constitutional amend ment. But this is just talk so far and no real move has been ini tiated. o G Changes Advocated Twitty said the present school accreditation system should be changed regardless of politics and regardless of the present georgia school row over the firing of 12 school department officials by the Board of Education. These firings led to a request to the Southern Association of Col leges and secordary schools, the accrediting agenty, for an inves tigation of “political interfer ence”’ in the Georgia school sys tem. The floor leader said many law= makers have complained that this “outside agency” should not have the power to blacklist Georgia schools simply because one or more officials have been dismiss~ ed—whether the dismissals were (Continued On Page Five) indirect result of the gas line break. Two deaths from the cold were reported in Texas. One was an unidentified teen-ager who was found frozen to death 10 miles east of Amarillo, A young farm hand was found frozen to death on the Mississippi river sand bar near Dyersburg, Tenn. One man froze to death while sleeping in his car in Memphis. Three deaths from the cold and snow were re ported in lowa. The strong winds and cold which hit the Texas 'Panhandle took a toll of livestock. An Am arillo hide and woel eompany said it had to dispose of about 1,000 carcasses, most of them Brahma cattle. e T e - . The heavy snowfall in Minneso ta caused hazardous conditions on many highways., All highways south of the twin cities of Min neapolis and St. Paul were de scribed as a “single blanket of ice” by state highway patroimen and motorists were warned not to drive on the roads. The cold weather moderated somewhat in the Midwest — but not much relief was in sight, Low est readings early today included 1-9 at Dickinson, N. D., Shadron, Neb., and Letmon, S. D. St, -Loui§ had a low of five 1 above and it was 8 above at Oles ! Jahoma City. Shreveport, La., Ishivered in 15 above and it was !95 at Jackson, Miss.

I Marines Brave Blizzard rapped Marines Brave Blizzard, By The Associated Press 4 TOKYO, Dec. 7.—(AP) —Allied troops braced on a new hill defense line 25 miles south of fallen Pyongyang today for a stand against steadily advancing vanguards-of a mil lion-man Chinese Red expeditionary force. The line stretched inland 70 miles in northeast Korea from the Yellow Sea. It was a defense in depth on com manding heights and not a solid line. ¥ Community Chest Renews Drive To Reach Quota A concentrated drive to reach the Athens Community Chest quota will begin tomorrow, ac cording to President W. A. Sams, jr. A total of $34,891 of the $44,~ 000 goal has been reached. Following the end of the offi cial campaign several weeks ago the drive was extended but con tributions lagged so renewed ef fort will be placed upon reaching the goal. Mr. Sams praised persons who increased their econtributions over last year’s amount and urged others who have not to do so soon, He said the cost of operating the various Community Chest or= ganizations— Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Y. M. C. A, Y. W.C. A, The Salvation Army, and Asso ciated Services for the Armed Forces — has increased over last year, thus calling for a larger Red Feather quota. Mr. Sams said onyone wishing to. contribute to the Chest can mail the contribution to Athens Communiy Chest, Athens, Geor gia, or call one of the participat ing agencies and the money, check or pledge will be picked up. He emphumd that the contri gutions are tax ded well paign. He urged A ans' so co= operate with the Community Chest in helping to push it over the quota. About $2,000 more has been collected so far this year than last year. 3 Mercury To Drop For Second Time The Fall’'s second cold wave is expected to hit Athens tonight with temperatures ranging possi bly lower than 20 degrees above zero, sometime during the freez ing weather, The U.

The Chinese armies in front of it were estimated at 100,000 men with up to 80,000 combat reserves behind those Reds and hundreds of thousands more in Korea or moving up from Manchuria. The Eighth Army force on the defense line is something less than the 110,000 men Lt. Gen. Walton H. Walker had when he was !f‘oex;ced to. retreat late in Novem- Northeast of the new line, U. S. Marines and doughboys battled in a blizzard in a dogged effort to break out of Red traps south of the Changjin reservoir. They broke out of one and have to fight through another, Withdrawal . Underscoring the critheal situa tion of the United Nations forces near the reservoir and elsewhere in the northeast was the with drawal of the American garrison from the east coast port of Won san. A bombardment by three U, 8. destroyers and shore fire by South Kqﬂm Marines covered the pull-out of Wonsan. Presumably the American garrison at Wonsan was relatively small. It was not identified. Wonsan was captured Oct. 10 by South Korean troops. The same Marines trapped at the Changjin Reservoir landed at the port Oct. 15 after a week-long sweeping of a minefield offshore. B o s b e “operation what-the-hell.” Hamhung and its nearby port of Hungnam, 50 miles north of Won san, now becomes the Allies’ main escape route in the northeast, It is more centrally located for the widely scattered units of the 10th Corps. The new line in the northwest is 85 miles north of Seoul, the Korean Republic’s capital, and is 58 miles north of Parallel 38, Gén~ eral MacArthur described it as arching from the west coast port of Chim'umg to Koksan, an in land tcwn miles southeast of Pyongyang. There was no explanation as to why the location of the defense line was announced. It previously had been a deep secret. : No Set Lines There were no set lines in the northeast. Three American and two South Korean divisions are all over the rugged map there, with the Marines and two regi ments of the U. S. Seventh Infan try Division in the worst spot, = They pushed into Koto today after a bitter battle through heavy Chinese resistance south of the Changjin Reservoir. It took them 25 hours to batter their way eight miles from Haga- Td. The first elements of two Ma= rine and two infantry regiments made their way into Koto at 7:25 a. m. (5 p. m. EST Wednesday). Associated Press Correspondent Jack Macßeth, the only corre~ spondent in Koto, said eight hours later they “are still coming into Koto today.” A headquarters spokesman said, “the pressure is heavy at Hagaru and the enemy is trying to capture as many of our men as they can,” The Americans still were faced with fighting their way out of Ko= to through heavy Communist cone centrations to cover the 40 miles of winding mountain road south east to Hamhung, Seven Chinese divisions were reported deployed along the road —the only escape route south from Koto. The spokesmar said he may be able tomorrow to identify two other Chinese divis ions fighting to hold the Ameri cans in the trap. b 8-Mile Trek The eight-mile trek into Koto was rugied. enough. Elements of the Fifth and Seventh Marine Regiments and the 31st and 32nd Regiments of the Seventh Di vision fought through zero weath er, a blinding snow storm and one Chinese roadblock after another. The Communists threw mortar and small arms fire, “Molotov cocktails”—gasoline filled bottles ~—and sticks of explosives at the Amerlcans. Allied aircraft countered with sirikes ‘that left K the surrounding hills ablaze. Col. Lewis Puller, commander of the Marine First Regiment, said the Chinese have blown bridges and blocked the roads “but will make a fight out of it.” Infantrymen from the U. 8. Third Division moved up from Hamhung area to try to clear the road for the trapped Americans. They were forced to halt near Ma jon, 15 road miles south of Koto, {Continued On Page Four) TAAN TR I ST 3 %) s : SR L R g T e 05 CREAA Nﬁw ST X S s»' ,j@,ﬁ. 1 ‘ﬁ'g kw‘k.‘x . - o ot 9\%5"’» i T :,::“;:;.' > : o BN eit P ' g A R o . & BN : Wi e s el VO ie, S oot B ; A 5 e ey - 4 o B ::::;;;: f b : { % \ FL2ONe ,3"‘&« PR ] .

Studies West's Request That Chinese Reds Withdraw From Korea: Anti-Red Forces Urged By France PARIS, Dec. 7—(AP)—France pressed today for an anti-Com= munist army in Europe, bolstered by German manpower, and named one of her top generals to head wavering French defenseg in Red menaced Indochina, The cabinet announced it will call a meeting of the West Euro pean nftions in Paris durix_lg Jan uary to draw up plans for an At lantic Pact European Army, The announcement confirmed that France had agreed to immediate formation of West German com bat teams in the Atlantic force. For the Far East, France named Gen. Jean de Lattre de Tassigny as high commissionér in Indo china, with “full military and civil powers” to direct the war “-!:‘l?t the Communist-led Viet~ " Tadflgny Takes Over De Lattre de Tassigny, who has been serving as commander of In fantry in the joint general staff under the Brussels pact, will take over the dutles by both civilian high commissioner Leon Pignon and Gen. Marcel Carpentier, now in command of French forces har assed by Ho Chi Minh’s Nation alists. | Today’s announcemeant was the first offiicial disclosure thati France has withdrawn her insis tence on delay in forming German combat units until a unified De fense Ministry has been created, Information Minister Albert Gazier sald the decision was an emergency measure providing for a “transitory” phase in European rearmament. France still hopes to see the unified defense minis try set up eventually, The switch in French attitude was seen as a victory for the United States, which wanted to get the Germans into a European army as soon as possible. The move came as President Truman and Prime Minister Atte lee announced in Washington that the western defense powers will push to build up Atlantic de fenses against Soviet aggression. REPUBLICANS-ACHESON GOP Leaders Consider Formal Ouster Demand WASHINGTON, Dec. T7T—(AP) —Top Senate Republicans faced a decision today on whether to make a formal demend on President Truman for the ouster of Dean Acheson, his secretary of statg. GOP calls for Acheson’s dis missal from the eabinet are nothe ing new but this is the first for mal, concerted move. There is no indication that the })roposed action would have any effect. Mr, Tru man on several ‘occasions has de=- clared his glgnﬁdence in Acheson. Senator Taft (R-0), chairman of the 11-man GOP policy com mittee which scheduled considera tion of an ouster resolution, had no forecast on the outcome. The resolution l\;gonsored by Senator Ives (l‘:l- ), said in part: “ .., Because he no longer enjoys the confidence of the American people we . . . call upon the President to appoint a new secretary of state at the earliest time.” On other fronts, Congress mov~ ed into high gear. Both Senate and House arranged to vote on separate measures to extend rent control. Supporters predicted pas sage of both bills, The Senate measure provides a two-month, gxo House a three-month exten on. Present Situation : As it stands now, controls ex pire Dec. 31 in all communities which don’t vote their own exten sions, up to a six-month maximum. And Chairman George (D-Ga) of the tax-framing Senate Finance Committee said he hoped to com plete work tomorrow on a bill taxing excess profits.

But the Chinese Communist representatives here have frown ed on proposalg that the Red ar mies stop at the 88th parallel, The Peiping radio has broadcast a statement their troops will roll south “to aid Korea.” The effect of 4 U, N. withdrawal demand was doubtful. oAI Fegr Gey R was g the 0 ] atti tude- he could think of, explained 'his optimism this way: - “If this resolution is adopted by ‘the U, N, it will be the first time U 3, will have sekeg the Coitss .

Russia’s veto of the withdrawal proposal in the Security Council, Russia’s attempts to keep it off the Assembly agenda, Russig’s deris~ ion of the 13-nation appeal to the Chinese Communists to halt at the 38th parallel — all were taken as concrete evidence of the low gpine ion the Moscow-Peiping axig holds of the demrand, Wu announced beforehand he would not take part in discyssions on the Korean question =« where he and Russia insist %nly Chinese “yolunteers” are *“fighting to de= fond China.” But he Is expected to be on hand when Soviet Foreign Minister Ane drei Vishinsky seeks priorit: (Continued On Page Foup{ has already passed a tax bill, ‘ George’s committee scheduled 22 witnesses today in & hurry-up ‘move aimed at getting new tag legislation to the President be= fore Congress adjourns.
