Crossing Made Without Orders
In an interview at Seoul, Presi
dent Syngman Rhee of the Korean
Republic expressed the belief his
men had crossed into North Korea
without orders from the Allied U.S.
Eighth Army.
"But I don't believe the Eighth
Army will force them to come back,”
he added. "If we leave things as
they now are (the country divided)
we give them the opportunity to:
start a war' again . . . killing, de
stroying.”
Because so few prisoners were
being taken by the advancing South
Koreans, an American advisory of
ficer with • them expressed concern
that the Reds may be vanishing
intg the hills preparing for a flank
ing movement.
There have been frequent reports
that Red China has now massed an
army in Manchuria on the North
Korean frontier. Communist Chi
nese leaders have engaged in threat
ening talk but there are no authen
tic reports their troops are on the
march into North Korea.
South Korean forces pushing
northward reported they were tak
ing only about 50 to 75 prisoners a
day. The South Korean Third Di
vision has advanced rapidly, having
covered 275 road miles since it
kicked off 15 days ago in the Pohang
area.
An American spokesman said no
U.S. forces have yet pushed north
of the border.
Lt. Gen. George E. Stratcmeyer,
said Allied planes since June 25 have
destroyed or damaged more than
1.000 Red tanks, thousands of ve
hicles, 376 bridges and 152 enemy
planes.
BRITISH LABOR
PARTY GIVES UP
WAGE POLICIES
Unions Force Party to Re
teat from Wage Freezes
and Make Price Cuts j
MARGATE, Eng., Oct. 3 — (JP) —
Heavy fire from union leaders and
left-wing members of Parliament to
day forced Prime Minister Attlee's
Labor Party executive to retreat
from its wage freeze policy. The ;
unions rammed through a resolu
tion demandirf! pay boosts, price j
cuts and profit controls.
The resolution, which the execu
tive accepted unanimously, forced !
the party to abandon the Labor gov- j
ernment hold-the-line order on
wages, put into effect in February, |
1948. It was adopted after 1,500!
delegates to the party’s annual con- ;
ference heard Attlee declare in a
welcoming speech that "capitalism
has lost faith in itself.”
Attlee told the conference that
Britain’s policy of Democratic So
cialism “is the only dynamic alter
native to totalitarian Communism.” j
The effect of today's resolution is j
binding on the party leadership, >
and theoretically on the government,
since Attlee and six members of his '
cabinet are in the 26-member party
executive.

port cases of communicable disease
to the Health Department.
Two respirators arrived yesterday
in Anchorage from the Los Angeles
| branch of the National Foundation
| for Infantile Paralysis. One was
j sent on to Fairbanks.
Two more iron lungs w’ere being
flown to Anchorage today from Mc
Chord Air Force Base near Tacoma,
where they had been received from
the Portland equipment pool of the j
Foundation.
Meantime, a call went out from ;
Anchorage asking all Alaska nurses !
with experience in the care of polio j
cases to-contact the Alaska Health .
Department.
At the first indication that Alaska
had more than a rare sporadic case,
the Health Department sent infor
mational literature on polio to all
25 health centers.
At the weekend, Dr. J. H. Stick- j
ler, epidemiologist, sent a detailed |
technical memorandum to all pri
vate and institutional physicians in
the Territory.
Lloyd Coe, Director of Health
Education, has wired the National
Foundation to rush by air 15,000
copies of a pocket pamphlet for
general distribution. These are in
tended to inform health centers,
school officials and parents, and [
should be available soon.
“Dr, Carter hit the nail on the I
head,” Coe said todayr "when he em- .
phasized the importance of not in- I
terrupting normal routine.”
“Notice especially these precau- '
tions,” said Coe.
Keep calm, carry on your normal :
routine, don’t spread panic.
Keep clean; be certain all objects i
entering the mouth are clean; wash ,
hands thoroughly before eating or
handling food and after going to
the toilet.
Keep children with their own
friends, away from people they have
not been with right along, especi
ally in the close contracts that occur
within a home.
Avoid overfatigue. Exhaustive
play or work, or continued activity
when feeling ill, may invite a more i
serious form of the disease.
Avoid chilling; remove wet cloth-1
ing at once.
Keep food clean, although there is ,
no scientific evidence that any foods, I
in themselves, can cause polio.
Postpone nose or throat opera- '
tions, if your doctor agrees.
Put the patient to bed at once, j
away from others, and call your doc
tor promptly if symptoms appear.
Symptoms of polio include head
ache, sore throat, nausea, upset
stomach, unexplained fever and
sometimes change in bowl habits.
Patients may be fatigued or listless,
or irritable and nervous.
More definite signs are trembling
of the hands or other parts of the
bodys, muscle pain and stiffness,
especially in the neck and back. All
these symptoms may not be present
at the same time.
