Korean War (Continued from Page One) in the Korean military advisory group (KMAG) said they considered the situation serious. The enemy force was reported smashing at the flank of the South Korean 26th Regiment about 10 miles south of the big Chosin hydro-electric reservoir. The reservoir is about 40 air miles south of the Manchurian border. Price reported that a capture Korean red officer said the attacking force was under orders to capture Hamhung—a huge one-time chemical center—by Wednesday. There still was no indication whether this was considered open intervention by red China in the Korean war. Other official spokesmen earlier disclosed some individual Chinese had been captured. That was not regarded as intervention. The most critical area in the blazing northwest front was near Onjong. U.S. tanks and artillery were rushed there to help the Republic of Korea (ROK) Sixth Division. This is about 45 miles south of the border. More than 10,000 communists reported to include some Chinese chewed the division by one-third in three days of fighting and forced it to flee in disorder. But the Chinese regiment reported by the 10th Corps spokesman was pin-pointed south of the big Chosin hydroelectric plant reservoir. The plant supplies vital electric power to Manchuria.

The ROK Third Division was stalled in its push toward the reservoir from Hamhung, in the east coast. In addition to these reinforcements, North Korean women were reported going to the front. The reds evidently were trying to hold at all costs until wintry blasts overtake the Allied forces. Tillie Froehlich Dies in Fullerton Miss Tillie M.

Ana. 6893 Loses Foliage In Hospital When the prizes are awarded tomorrow afternoon for the first, second and third best beards in Anaheim, they may be won by what are actually only the second, third and fourth best beards. And if that isn't enough to confuse you, take into consideration that the best beard my be the property of Alex Evans, 146 E. Center st., a man who at this time is probably one of the most clean-haven citizen of Anaheim. Evans' face foliage is currently housed in an envelope, and it really doesn't look too impressive there, but it was really a face full before he was forced to shave it off on Friday morning. Evans is no newcomer to this Hallowe'en festival thing. Last year he bedecked himself as a devil and won second prize in the costume contest. He had hoped to surpass that this year. He was going as a caveman. He had a shaggy goatskin for garb and his hair and beard had both reached alongated proportions since neither had been trimmed since the beginning of August. But about three weeks ago, as Evans was going about his daily chores while working for a contractor, he lifted a two-by-four partition and hurt his back. Taken to the Anaheim hospital for observation, his case was diagnosed as a broken disc in the vertebrae. He was removed to St. Joseph's hospital in Orange, where the disc was removed by an operation on Friday morning. All this time the beard had remained, but it finally came off Friday morning just before the operation. It was felt that there might be some danger should Evans require oxygen during the operation and the mask not be able to be placed correctly on his face because of the beard. "It was really a beauty," mused Evans Friday afternoon. "It was about an inch and a half long, but it had started to curl back underneath already. Pretty colorful, too. Red and brown and white. The mustache was good, too. It was long enough so that I could either curl it or droop it." When the beard came off on Friday that wasn't the end of the fun. "The doctor came in with the clippers," Evans said, "and he experimented with different types as he went along. I had quite a few different beards—Van Dyke, goatee, etc.—before he finally got it all shaved off." He didn't lose the beard altogether. He's rather proud of his 11 weeks of hirsute growth and he has saved the shavings and put them in an envelope for a keepsake—probably his only reminder of the prize he might have won when he is released from the hospital in about a week."

Walter Spritzer, import manager of the Kane Import Co., New York City, told of buying most of the copper off ships of the Isbrandtsen Line after they had left Japan and then having it reshipped from New York to the North China Import Co. He testified before a Senate commerce subcommittee which is investigating shipments of oil and other strategic materials to the Chinese reds, especially since the outbreak of the Korean war last June 25. Senator O'Conor (D-Md) chairman of the subcommittee, said he expected to show that "since December, 1949, over 4,000,000 pounds of pure copper ingots were exported from Japan, under the control of SCAP (Supreme Command of Allied Forces in the Pacific), to New York and then clear around the world to North China." He said the "devious and expensive method" used in making the shipments showed "the urgent need for this strategic material by China and communists." Five specific transactions were outlined in the testimony. Jerome Kohlberg, president of the import company, said they all were in accord with the export regulations of the commerce department. Here is Alex Evans in pre-injury days, with a beard that make any Whiskerino judge's mouth water. But it's all new, following hospitalization on the eve of the contest. City Club President Urges 'No' on State Propositions 1, 6 "On behalf of the faculty of Anaheim Union High school, I strongly urge the citizens of Anaheim to vote NO on propositions 1 and 6 in the Nov. 8 election." Osborne Wheeler, faculty club president, declared today. He pointed out that the local teachers are joining the P-TA, many civile and church groups in voicing vigorous opposition to both measures. "Both proposals," he said," menace California's educational system and would in any probability have grievous long-term consequences on the state's educational program." "Reprecussions of both propositions would be felt strongly in Anaheim should misguided voters approve them at the polls," he declared. "Proposition 1, for example, (reducing personal property taxes) would probably cut back funds now available for schools by as much as $2 per cent. Unless local school taxes were boosted to meet this deficit, the school's present expansion program might be delayed or cancelled—or new need." GOP Pocketbook talk will cap campaign speeches during the week by Vice-President Barkley, Secretary of Agriculture Brannan and other administration figures. Before his political talk the president is expected to wrap up as something of a campaign document a call for congress to meet earlier than the Nov. 27 reconvening date it set when it quit in September. Senator Lucas of Illinois, the Democratic leader, told reporters in Illinois where he is campaigning that he had discussed the matter with the president but no decision had been reached. If Mr. Truman asks the lawmakers to hurry back after the election, some of his supporters think the president will stress action on excess profits taxes and rent controls. Both are considered good political issues in the Democratic camp. In his public discussion thus far of possibly recalling congress early, Mr. Truman specifically mentioned taxation, rent control and statehood for Alaska and Hawaii. Some congressional observers also believe that revision of the McCarran subversives control law will be one of the first things Mr. Truman will seek in congress. It was passed over his veto in September, going far beyound what he had asked in the way of internal security measures.

Program tonight is an film. All workers in cuts named are urged to be meeting. "Reprecussions of both propositions would be felt strongly in Anaheim should misguided voters approve them at the polls," he declared. "Proposition 1, for example, (reducing personal property taxes) would probably cut back funds now available for schools by as much as $2 per cent. Unless local school taxes were boosted to meet this deficit, the school's present expansion program might be delayed or cancelled—or new needed books, equipment and supplies not purchased—or the necessary new teachers needed to handle swelling enrollment not hired." Wheeler additionally pointed out that few Anaheim residents stand to gain more than two or three dollars tax reductions for this sacrifice in educational facilities; and that the resultant local school tax increases might actually be many times that of the original cut. Experts, in fact, have calculated that the average family will get a $6 cut in total taxation—But subsequently will pay $45 in new taxes. "Proposition 6 (legalizing gambling in California)," he continued, "promises not only to throw the state's financial system awry, but more important to educators, encourages vice and gambling among impressionable teen-aged youth. Proposed and to be administered by the five 'gambling czars' named in the proposal, the scheme proposedly derives its values from promises of greater tax relief. Actually, in order to secure sufficient monies for the proposal, Californians would have to gamble an estimated one dollar in every three of their salaries. And even though this could be obtained, the hidden added expenses of new police supervision, new relief costs, and increased delinquency would do much toward equalizing any tax cuts thus derived.
