! Predict Victory

filled this year, the Democrats
hold 17 posts, the Republicans 16.
This year the Republicans are
! putting up a ding-dong battle off
over the country two of the tough
est fights being in Ohio and Cal
; ifc/rnia.
In California two members of
the House—Helen Gahagan Doug
las, Democrat, and Richard M.
Nixon, Republican—are battling
for a Senate seat.
In Ohio, Republican Senator
Robert A. Taft is trying to keep
: his Democratic opponent, state
.auditor Joseph T. Ferguson, from
unseating him.
The President, going out to St.
Houis to make a speech for his
party Saturday night, cheerfully
predicted a landslide for the Dem
ocrats.
Except for him. the political
bigshots in both camps have been
pretty cautious with their fore
casts although bath sides claim
victory before the voting statrs.
With the exception of one two
year period — 1947 and 1948 —
when the Republicans had control
of Congress, the Democrats have
had a majority in both House and
Senate since 1933, with a Demo
cratic President in the White
House now few 17 unbroken years.

FAIRBANKS, iff) — Two law- j

‘•'rtie United Nations forces are

j said in a special report transmitted!
at Lake Success by the chief U. S.
delegate, Warren Austin.
‘•The United Nations are pres
! enliv in hostile contact with Chi
j ncse communist military units," j
the report said. It gave a detailed i
| account of specific Chinese Red i
i units which have been identified.1
President Syngman Rhee of the
j Republic of Korea said he believes j
| Eoviet Russia ordered the Chinese j
; Reds into Gorea.
Diplomats predicted the United
| States might ask the U. N. secur- j
i ity council to act.
World capitals viewed the tense
1 situation with mounting concern, j

June 25.
A number of these countries
have supplies troops, air units and
warships for the Korean action, j
Theoretically, Red Korea has
fought alone. Actually, her troops j
were armed with vast amounts of |
Russian weapons. Russian-made
planes have fought Allied air
power. And the Red Chinese fight- !
ing in Korea already have been
estimated at between three and j
six divisions. i
Their appearance last weeK |
last week drove back the plung- j
ing rush of Allied forces toward
the Manchurian border. One
South Korean regiment already
had reached the boundary. An
American tank-led column then I
was within a few miles of Man
churia.
But Allied troops in the north
west today were waging a grim
defensive fight on the Chongju
River line less than 50 miles from
the old Red Korean capital of
Pyongyang.
This represented a retreat of 50
miles or more in the fact of heavy
communist attacks.
In the northeast, however, an
American regiment was striking
in zero weather within 24 miles
of the Manchurian border. This
force reported no Red resistance.
MacArthur said the communist
aggressor has massed “a great
concentration of possible reinforc
ing divisions with adequate sup
ply behind the privileged sanctu
ary of the adjacent Manchurian
border.”
