Message on
New Talk Is,
Due from Reds
TOKYO, Oct. 9—(Jfl—The Reds
will deliver a new message to the
Allies tomorrow, presumably their
latest word on reopening Korean
truce talks.
Tonight they asked Allied liaison
officers to pick up the message at
Panmunjom, proposed new locale
for the talks, at 8 a.m. Wednesday
(3 p.m. PST Tuesday).
That is only two hours before the
time suggested by Gen. Matthew B.
Ridgway for a meeting of liaison
officers in the Panmunjom area to
lay detailed plans for renewing
cease-fire negotiations.
The Reds gave no indication of
what the message would contain.
There had been no indication
that top Red commanders had
drafted their reply to Ridgway’s
message boadcast Monday night. In
it he agreed to renew truce talks in
the vicinity of Panmunjom, but de
clined to enlarge the neutral zone
as the Communists wanted.
Ridgway also suggested the pre
paratory Wednesday session of lia
ison officers.

Merry - Go - Round
(CoDyrlrfit, 1951. by Bell Syndicate, Inc.)
By DREW PEARSON
Washington — George Alien,
the former White House jester, is
now about the closest man to Gen
eral Eisenhower. It was Allen who
acted as liaison between Truman
and Eisenhower to make sure Ike
didn’t get into the race as a Demo
crat in 1948.
Today, Allen, though a Mississip
pi Democrat, says that Ike is sure
to run as a Republican.
Talking to a friend recently, Allen
predicted:
“What Ike >will do will be exactly
what Roosevelt did at Chicago in
1932. He’ll hop on a plane and fly
straight to the convention.”
“How’s he going to fly from Paris
to Chicago when he’s under orders
from tys Comander-in-Chief to do a
job in Paris?” asked the friend.
“Don’t be foolish,” shot back the
former White House jester, “what’s
the Commander-in-Chief going to
do about it?”

Fierce Hand-fo-Hand
Battles with Americans
Raging on Two Sections
U. S. EIGHTH ARMY HEAD
QUARTERS. Korea, Oct. 9—MV
Chinese Reds, shifted to crucial
fronts, today fought fierce hand
to-hand battles with attacking
American troops on western anc
eastern fronts.
U.S. First Division Cavalrymen
hacked out gains of more than a
mile near Yonchon on the western
front.
Chinese, thrown into action on
the eastern front for the first time
in five months, checked U.S. Second
Division attacks on peaks near
bloody Heartbreak Ridge.
The Chinese shifted east to halt
the Allies who have gained up to
15 miles there since the Reds
broke off cease-fire talks Aug. 23.
Reds promised to deliver a new
message Wednesday in the series of
exchanges on resuming armistice
talks. There was no hint of what
they would say.
Since they broke off negotiations
the Reds have suffered nearly 80.000
casualties, by U.S. Army estimates,
and lost nearly 250 square miles of
territory.
Returning U.N. pilots reported
they killed or wounded more than
400 Reds Monday — the heaviest
toil they have taken in months.
The Navy announced Red mines
and shj>re ^jjuns damaged two
American warsmps. 'twenty-seven
Americans were killed or wounded.
The shift of Chinese troops to
the eastern front was reported
Tuesday in a front line dispatch by
Associated Press Correspondent
Stan Carter.
He said five Chinese were cap
tured* on Kim II Sung ridge after
Reds hurled unsuccessful courier
attacks at U.S. Second Division
troops. Kim II Sung ridge is north
west of Yanggu. The Americans
have been trying to take it for
four days.
The prisoners said the Chinese
replaced North Koreans on that
sector two dayik ago.
U.S. Army Intelligence officers
described the Chinese as mostly
"reluctant draftees” rather than
professional soldiers.
An Army communique reported
attacking Allied forces in the east
ern ridges were held to gains of a
few hundred yards—or none at all.
Says American
Cities Could Be
Atomic-Aftacked
• ’ ;
Congressman Urges
Greater Production of
Weapons to Halt Russia
WASHINGTON, Oct. 9 — W — A
member of the Congressional Atomic
Energy committee declared today
Russia can launch ‘ an atomic at
tack at 20 or 30 American cities.”
A Senator had put the number as
high as' 50.
Rep. Jackson (D-Wash), a mem
ber of the atomic energy group, said
however the United States is now
capable of producing tactical atomic
weapons—that is, weapons for use
on the battlefield — which could
halt the Red Army "in its tracks.”
Pleading for all-out production
of atomic weapons, Jackson said
there is “virtually no limit on the
number of atomic weapons we can
produce” if funds are made avail
able.
“The time will come,” Jackson
said in a speech prepared for
House delivery, “when we can make
these weapons in dozens of varieties
and in thousands and tens of
thousands.”

By JACK HAND
NEW YORK, Oct. 9 — 0B — The
New York Yankees smothered the
New York Giants 13-1 today with
the most runs scored in a World
Series game in 15 years to take a 3-2
edge before 47,530 Polo Ground fans.
Rookie Gil McDougald hit the
third bases loaded homer in aeries
history and Rhll Rizzuto punched a
two-run "Chinese" homer down the
right field foul line in the Yanks
12-hit barrage off five Olant
pitchers.
Lefty Ed Leya*. Whiner of the
i»me, breezed home with
i a five hitter to heat Larry Jansen
for the second time.
Thus the scene shift* to Yankee
Stadium tomorrow with the Yanks
needing only one more, win to nail
down a third straight world cham
pionship for Manager Casey Sten
gel.
This was 'the biggest score by a
series team since 1936 when the
Yanks sunk the Giants 13-5 at the
Polo Grounds Oct 6, 1936. On Oct.
2 in the same park during the ’36
series they hung up the all-time
high of 18-4.
Game Goes Into Rout
McDougald’s blast into the upper
left field seats some 375 feet away
came off Jansen with the score tied
at 1-1 in the third Inning. That hit
turned the game into a rout as
Manager Leo Durocher paraded
Montia Kennedy, George Spencer,
A1 Corwin and finally Alex Koni
kowski to the hill frying to stop
the deluge.
Strange as it may seem the Giants
actually held a 1-0 lead at one
stage, scoring in the first inning
on singles by A1 Dark, Monte Irvin
and an error by Oene Woodllng.
But it didn't last long.
Two walks and Joe DIMaggio’s
single that dropped in front of
Irvin and was fumbled for an error,
tied it up in the third. With two
men on, Johnny Mize was walked
intentionally, loading them up and
setting the stage for rookie Mc
Dougald’s grand slammer.
Not since 19|6 when Tony La
zerri hit one for the Yanks against
the Giants In that 18-4 game had
a bases loaded homer been hit
in a series game. The only pre
vious clout was by Cleveland's
Elmer Smith In 1920 against
Brooklyn.
Rizzuto’s 257-foot [mice off Ken
nedy followed, a walk to Woodling
in the fourth. It barely made the
