Negro Troops
Retake Yection
With a U. S. Infantry Task
Force in South Korea, (/P)—U. S.
Negro troops today drove North
Korean communists out of Yechon
and occupied that rail and high
way city. It was the first sizable
American ground victory in the
Korea war.
The Negro doughboys captured
Yechon after a 16-hour battle
which began yesterday afternoon
and ended shortly after dawn to
day. Our casualties were light.
The extent of enemy losses was
unknown.
Yechon is 60 miles northeast of
Taejon. General Mac Arthur’s Fri
day afternoon communique had
said one regiment of the South
Korean capital division counter
attacked and retook Yechon from
the communists. It is not clear
from this story whether the South
Koreans against lost the city and
it was retaken again by the U. S.
Negro soldiers).
Today at Yechon was a far dif
ferent story from the past few
dark days when gallant but out
numbered 24th Division soldiers
battled the surging Reds farther
west as United Nations forces
traded space for time.

press yesterday almost unani
mously condemned U. S. refusel

recommendations for peace in Ko

year-old dispute with Pakistan
over Kashmir. Pakistan’s Prime
Minister Liaquat Ali Khan was

conferences on Kashmir with Ne
hru and United Nations mediator
Sir Owen Dixon.
The local press concluded that
publication of Nehru’s correspond
ence with Generalissimo Stalin
and U. S. secretary of state Dtean
Acheson meant the Indian leader’s
Korean peace efforts had ended.
A foreign office spokesman de
clined to comment on this possi
bility.
Stalin had agreed with Nehru
that communist China should be
admitted to the United Nations
security council as a step toward
a Korean peace. Acheson said the
U. S. felt the Korean and Chinese
