Pointing out the initial capitali
zation of the A-J mine at $18,000.

investment would cost about $63
000,000 today.
"There is roughly about $30,000,

but it would cost $50,000,000 to
take it out. That is not good busi
ness. The chance cf reopening the
mine depends entirely on the price
of gold,” he concluded.

ATOMIC WEAPONS
ARE DEFENDED IN
U. N. ASSEMBLY
—
i
LAKE SUCCESS, Oct. 26—l.'Pt— j
Australian Foreign Minister Percy j
C. Spender declared today the use ■
of atomic weapons to repeal aggres- ,
sion is justified because aggression i
itself constitutes the most heinous j
crime against humanity.
•The way of the aggressor has
got to be made hard.” Spender told I
the U.N. Assembly’s Political Com- !
mittee.
He spoke for the non-Communist j
world in the committee's debate on !
a Soviet resolution.
Spender described this as based ;
on the Stockholm appeal, “a piece
of international fraud." The Soviet
resolution would classify use of
atomic bombs as the greatest crime
against humanity and would brand
as a war criminal a government
first using the bomb.
"The most heinous crime against
humanity is the crime of aggression,!
and the use of the atomic bomb
against aggression is not a crime,”
Spender said.
The Soviet resolution also calls j
upon the United States, Britain,
France, China and Russia to con
clude a peace pact and reduce their
armed forces by one-third. Except
for the atomic references, the pre
sent resolution is almost identical
with the one rejected by the Assem
bly last year.

RED CHINA'S
BORDER HIT
BY ALLIES
Patrols Race Unopposed
to South Bank of Yalu
River on Frontier
(By the Associated Press)
An Allied spearhead reached Red
China's Manchurian border tonight.
South Korean patrols raced un
opposed to the south bank of the
Yalu river, in the center of the un
easy frontier between North Korea
and Manchuria. They were the first
U.N. troops to complete the long
thrust up the mountainous penin
sula.
Other elements of the same divi
sion—the Republic of Korea 1ROK1
Sixth—were reported under attack
by Chinese Communists some 50
miles to the south. There was no
high Allied confirmation, however.
A. U.S. Eighth Army spokesman
said “there is no evidence of overt
or open support of North Korea by
the Chinese Communist army.”
Two Chinese prisoners, he said, were
in North Korean uniform.
Investigation On
The Eighth Army command was
making an intensive investigation.
One prisoner had reported that
20.000 Red Chinese troops had
crossed into North Korea from
Manchuria. The other had reported
the Chinese were attacking.
The spokesman made it clear that
all U.N. troops, including Ameri
can, can operate anywhere in North
Korea that strategy dictates. There
had been reports that U.S. troops
might be stopped short of the Man
churian border.
Big Spearhead
And on the east coast, the U.S.
Marine First Divison spearheaded
a 50,000-man landing force at cap
tured Wonsan port.
The Marines, landing on a beach
where the situation was already well
in hand, called the maneuver “Op
eration What-the-Hell.”
The Korean Military Advisory
Group (KMAG) reported that the
honor of being the first U.N. force
to reach the Manchurian boundary
fell to the Seventh Regiment cf
the ROK Sixth Division.

GOLD BONUS TO

OTTAWA, Oct. 26—(/ft-The fed
eral bonus on Canadian gold pro
duction, which expires at the end
of this year, will be continued
through 1951 on a reduced basis,
Mines Minister J. J. McCann said
last night.
Under legislation to be introduced
at the next session of Parliament,
maximum payments will be re
duced from $16 to $11.50 an ounce
and the basis for payments will be
revised.
The assistance is figured out on
a complicated formula basis.

duction before Jan. 1, 1948, and for
new mines it will remain the first
year of production.
McCann said the reason for the
change in the base year is that by
1949 many of the mines operating
at partial capacity in the old base
1 year had stabilized production at
higher levels with the help of the
assistance plan that went into effect
in 1948.
