20.000 Reds In Attack
On the central sector of the 45
mile northern front, elements of
the 20,000 Reds on the attack in the
Uihong area rolled back South Kor
ean Sixth Division troops four miles
to a point 18 miles north of Taegu,
the main Allied forward base.
Indications pointed to an im
minent grand-scale Red offensive at
all points around the 120-mile de
fense perimeter, with possibly the
entire North Korean Army com
mitted at the same time, in a sup
reme bid to crash through to Pusan,
the Allied supply base at the south
east tip of Korea. It seemed likely
the Communists now were under or
ders to strike for Pusan at all costs.
Thrust Is Removed
However, a spokesman for Gen.
MacArthur’s headquarters in Tokyo
said the Reds had lost the chance
to make a quick march on Pusan. He
said Allied ability to move rein
forcements quickly to any threat
ened point in the UN beachhead-in
depth on Korea, removed chances
for success for such a quick thrust.
The new Red roadblock near Po
hang. however, posed a serious
threat. Yongchon, 25 miles west
of Pohang, is astride a main high
way leading westward to Taegu. It is
on the road southward from the
Red central front push at Uihong.
The same road leads south from
Yongchon to Pusan.
British Troops nahorc
British troops, vanguard of more
United Nations ground forces yet
to come, stepped ashore in South
Korea, about 1,500 strong, to fight
beside the Americans and South
Koreans. To the wail of bagpipes,
English soldiers and Scottish "Lad
ies from Hell” disembarked with
some of their own battle equipment.
A Scottish officer said they were
"ready to go.” In the British force
are units of the famed Argyll and
Sutherland and the Middlesex re
giments, especially trained for this
type of war which is raging in Korea.
Along the blazing 45-mile north
ern front, the Reds have committed
40,000 troops in the twin attempts
to take Pohang, No. 2 East Coast
Allied port, and envelop Taegu, for
ward UN base.
So. Koreans Pushed Back
North of Taegu, hub of the central
front, Red forces shoved back South
Koreans four miles in an advance in
the Uihong sector, driving to within
18 miles of Taegu. It was to this
area that the Reds had shifted
troops from the sector northwest of
Taegu, to try a new avenue for an
attempted breakthrough.
An Allied intelligence officer said
it was in this sector that the giant
Communist offensive might begin to
develop. The focus of the offensive
may be determined as soon as the
elite second North Korean Division,
now refitting in the rear, is returned
to the line. There are signs of Red
reinforcements in the rear of this
sector. Two Red divisions, the 18th
and 15th, are not far away and could
be brought into action quickly in the
event of a breakthrough.
Allied Air Attacks
The Allied air attacks continued
around the front. Air and ground
reports for Tuesday listed four Red
tanks destroyed, two ammunition
dumps exploded, 28 vehicles of all
types knocked out and between 12
and 15 artillery pieces put out of
action.
B-29s dropped 230 tons on enemy
railyards at Chongjin, 60 miles
south of Soviet Siberia. Light bomb
ers plastered Red supply lines.
Red Ships Sunk
U. S. Navy guns plastered the
North Korean positions around Po
hang. The South Korean Navy re
ported the destruction of two Red
ships yesterday off the southwest
coast.
Soviet Russia opens a new propa
ganda assault at Lake Success, N. Y.,
this afternoon (2 p.m., EST) as the
Russian month of presidency of the
Security Council draws to an end.
Soviet Delegate Jakob A. Malik has
notified the rest of the members
he will fight to place Communist
Chinese charges of American ag
gression on the Council agenda.
Red China charges the U. S. with
armed aggression in Formosa, Is
land bastion of the Nattouaiists.
The United 6tates has said it would
welcome an on-the-spot UN investi
gation.
