air attacks.
Field dispatches said the toll of
Red dead was terrific. But still
the Communists poured southward
out of the North Korean massing
areas.
sth Red Offensive
This was the Chinese Reds’ fifth
offensive since they entered the
war in late November. And it ap
peared to be shaping up as their
mightiest drive—one aimed, Red
prisoners said, to throw the Allies
out of Korea by the June 25 first
anniversary of the Communist in
vasion,
Red commanders had a pool of
1,141,000 available troops in Ko
rea and Manchuria, the U. N. com
mand said. And they were reck
less in the way they spent them.
The great Red assault is doomed
to failure, Lt. Gen. James A. Van
Fleet confidently told his Allied
ground forces.
U. N. massed artillery fired at
record speed to cut attacking
waves to pieces, Allied airmen
complained Friday afternoon that
they couldn’t find many Red tar
gets.
Field dispatches said the bugle
blowing, horn tooting Chinese fell
by the thousands under geysering
artillery explosions, One U. S. bat
talion on the central front claimed
an all time record for speed of
sustained fire.
Barbed Wire
Barbed wire, strung extensively
before U. N. positions in Korea for
the first time, was hung with grue
some garlands of Chinese. Two
thousand miles of wire were
stretched in front of one unit.
. Front line dispatches gave this
picture Friday night, looking
across the front from west to east:
American forces pulled back
from Uijongbu, 11 miles north of
Seoul. Red screening forces pushed
to within 10 miles of the old South
Korean capital,
An armored U. N. patrol was
stooped 10 miles east of Seoul by
a Red mine field covered by auto
matic weapons fire. A series of
Red attacks failed to break U. N.
lines in the west-central front Fri
day. South Koreans patched up
the only dent. But massing Chi
nese, camauflaged by tree bran
ches, hid in the woods ready to re
new their assaults.
Heavy fighting raged across the
central front. The Allied line
pulled back before waves of at
tacking Chinese.
Red Breakthrough
_Chinese poured through a break
in South Korean lines. 'They
streamed down the Inie-Hongchon
road on the central front.
A veteran American division
astride this road was fighting at
tacks on three sides. AP Corre
snondent Nate Polowetzky said it
was in “great trouble.”
Americans were rushed up to
nlug the gan cut in two South
Korean divisions. South Korean
unite were badly hurt, Two re
treating units were caught in a
Chinese ambush. At least one of
them fought its way out. A strong
Allied tank column hit the same
tran, It escaped down a dry river
be.!
AP Correspondent George Mc-
Arthur revorted all U. N. troops
had pnlled back out of Red Ko
rea. Sonth Koreans had held a
25-mile line from the Inje area to
the Sea of Javan.
Corresnondent McArthur said
the withdrawal through the moun=-
tains from this line was orderly.
Bain drenched the battlefields
Fridav neht. Red commanders
counted on spring rains to bog
down Allied armor and provide
protection from the skies for their
masses ~f infanfryme-.
East-Central Sector
Their heaviest weight was
thrown against the east-central
sector. U'n tn midnight Thursdav
they had Inst 9.000 men there, AP
Corresn~ndent Wililam C. Barnard
renpnrteq,
“Their losses after midnight
were astounding,” he said.
“They hurled an amazing storm
of men against a heavily defended
position southeast of Chunchon,
They ran into Allied minefields
and through gevsering explosions.
Thev kept coming over the bodies
of their own dead. Allied artil
lerv rained death in their midst.
“They kept coming and then
they hit the barbed wire entangle
ments and fixed American ma
chineguns opened up with deadly
fire. It cut them down hy the
hundreds, stopping the attack cold
at the very mouth of the Allied
guns.”
Through the night Allied bom
bers and fighters bombed and
strafed by the light of flares.
Massed artillery fired steadily into
swarming Reds. &
All field dispatches were heavily
censored. The exact location of
any fight was deleted.
Censorship particularly obscured
what was happening in the big
Red breakthrough and its poten
tial significance.
Only one thing was completely
clear, Communist troops were
suffering terrifie losses.

per cent below pre-Korea levels.
The proposed cuts were announced
only yesterday. |
The- announcement was made
only a few hours after President
Truman appealed anew for strong
er controls and defense production
programs, and said:
“The special interests and the
lobbies will wreck this stabiliza
tion program, as sure as you're
born, unless the main body of the
citizens of this country get busy
and do something about it.”
He did not name any “special
interests.”
NAM President William H. Ruf
fir said in a statement prepared
for the Senate Banking Commit
tee that the broader economic
powers Mr. Truman wants could
lead to destruction of the nation’s
economic system and would
amount to “perhaps the longest
single step toward complete gov
ernment control ever proposed to
the American people.” |
Congress, the Association declar
ed, should let authority to curb !
prices and wages lapse June 30, |
when the present law expires, :
; Carey Proposal
James B. Carey, secretary
treasurer of the CIO, proposed a
stiffer price control law that “pér
mits dollars-and-cents ceiling, . ..
grade labelling and requires main
tenance of not only quality goods,
but also of low-priced lines.”
In a speech prepared for a con
ference here today of the Amer
jecans for Democratic Action
(ADA), Carey said:
“In the last year, as the result
of a pistol of necessity being plac
ed at our heads by ...small
- groups of powerful men and or
ganizations that I call the rac
' keteers of inflation, the American
people have paid over an esti
mated $15,000,000,000 in tribute.”
This amount, Carey said, had
been garnered by (1) men who
“persuaded Congress to leave outi
~of the defense production act any |
control over the commodity ex
l changes,” (2) the “price racketeer”
{ who “raises the price of the things
he makes and sells” to take ad
vantage of shortages, (3) corpora
tions which “demanded that we
meet their terms” for building de
fense plants by granting “the pri
vilege of writing off the value of
these plants in five yesars,” and
(4) the “tax racketeer” who
“spends large sums of money try
ing to shift the tax burden from
the wealthy and the corperations
... to the people.”
Scott W. Lucas, former Illinois
senator and Senate Democratic
lerder, told the Senate Banking}
Committee in a prepared state
ment that: |
“There is no justification under
present conditions for controls on
! installment sales of automobiles.”
! Henry J. Kruse of Seattle, Wash.,
ia director of the Western States
| Meat Packers Association, told the
| Senate Banking Committee yes
terday that ‘“authority for price,
wage and rationing controls should ‘
! be deleted” from existing laws.

Critics
(Continued From Page One)
Arthur was fired.
Bradley argued that was a con
fidential matter between the
President and his advisers. Mr.
Truman agreed.
; The President’s disclosure of
Acheson’s part in that conference
prompted an observation by
Brewster that the Secretary of
State now ought to be willing to
explain hig attitude fully to the
committees.
On the other hand, Chairman
Connally (D-Tex) of the Senate
foreign relations committee told a
' reporter the President’s statement
ought to set at rest reports he was
“influenced by somebody else” in
his decision to sack MacArthur.
The President said he went all
the way to Wake Island last Oc
tober to see MacArthur and that
he thought he had a policy agree
ment with the general then.
The President said he didn’t
want to fire MacArthur. He didn’t
want to do anything to injure any
of the men for whom he had ask
ed Congress to grant five stars and
additional pay, he added.
