"Korea is proof that freedom can survive if the peoples who cherish it stand together," Mr. Truman said.

He said that "today, France and other free nations are joined with (Continued on Page 5) City Workers Get Wage Increase A flat $15-pay boost was added to the checks of Anaheim city employees when the city council voted the cost-of-living raise at a meeting on Friday.

US Asks UN Meeting on Red China LAKE SUCCESS (AP) — The United States today called for a special Security Council meeting Wednesday to consider the intervention of red China in the Korean war. The meeting was requested shortly after Gen. Douglas MacArthur formally reported to the council that Chinese communist troops had crossed into Korea and were fighting U.N. troops. U.S. Delegate Ernest A. Gross said the delay in the council meeting was to give the delegates a chance for private consultations on the "serious" situation. He said the United States already had been carrying on private talks with some delegates. MacArthur's charges were made in a special report transmitted to the council by Chief U.S. Delegate Warren R. Austin. MacArthur reported Chinese communist troops crossed the border into Korea as early as Oct. 16. These were from the 124th division of the 42nd army. About 2500 troops were involved in this crossing, the report said. On Oct. 20, a task force of approximately 5000 men was reported to have crossed and joined in the fighting. MacArthur said these were from the Chinese communist 40th army. Temperatures Temperature reading in downtown Anaheim at 2 p.m., this afternoon was 76 degrees. High temperature for the past 24 hours was 86 degrees at 3:30 p.m., yesterday. Low was 49 at Anaheim Sailors See Active Duty In Mediterranean Far East Waters Anaheim Sailors See Active Duty In Mediterranean, Far East Waters Leslie Arnold Krink, seaman apprentice, USN, son of Mr. and Mrs. Buford H. Carden of 850 N. West st., was valuable aid in the crushing blow dealt North Korean communists when United Nations amphibious forces stormed ashore at Inchon. During the invasion, he was a crew member aboard the heavy cruiser USS Toledo. His ship was one of those charged with the "softening up" of shore defenses with a heavy naval bombardment which lasted two days. After the beachhead at Inchon was secured by Marine Corps units the Toledo remained in the area to supply long range support to groups pushing inland. Robert L. Bales, machinist's mate, first class, USN, of 1147 Center st., is serving aboard the heavy cruiser USS Rochester, flagship of the U.S. Seventh Fleet, now operating in Korean waters. The Rochester, which has been on combat duty in the Far East since the beginning of hostilities in that area, recently participated in the amphibious assault of Inchon, Korea. The ship was one of a group which set up a two day bombardment of the red stronghold, blasting shore installations in preparation for the Marine units which later successfully stormed ashore and secured the city for the United Nations. After the landings, the Rochester remained in the area, throwing her shells 15 miles inland to give support to advancing U.N. forces. Albert R. Leos, fireman, USN, son of Mr. and Mrs. Pomposo Leos of 907 N. Paulina, is serving on board the destroyer tender USS Yellowstone, one of the U.S. Navy's auxiliary ships that maintain the Sixth Fleet in the Mediterranean. The Navy maintains no land bases in the Mediterranean, but depends on the auxiliaries to act as floating "home ports" for the carriers, cruisers and destroyers of the Sixth Fleet. The Sixth Fleet is commanded by Vice Admiral John J. Ballentine, and operates under the control of Admiral Richard L. Conolly, Commander-in-Chief, U.S. Naval Forces, Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean. NAHEIM EST. 1870 GAZETE ANAHEIM, ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA.

It is not only the fact that publican chief executive first ever to seek a third the state. (Only two ofonia's 30 governors won terms—Warren and the late W. Johnson.) BATTLEFRONT SITUATION—As Gen. MacArthur accused Reds of concentrating reinforcements in Manchuria, gravest communist threat to U.N. battle line (broken line) in Korea was developing at Anju (large white arrow). In north central Korea, Chinese reds have stalled Marines in thrust on Changjin reservoir. In northeast U.S. troops moved beyond Pungsaan, within 24 miles of Manchurian border. Farther east South Koreans drove north of Kilchu. Black arrows denote approximate Allied positions; open arrows the reds.—(Associated Press Wirephoto.) UN Forces Dig in Before Tide Of Onrushing Chinese Commies By The Associated Press United Nations forces in Korea dug in for defensive action today and Gen. MacArthur charged that "alien communist forces" moving in from communist China had caused a situation of "the gravest international significance." Communist reinforcements from China's red army momentarily turned the tide of battle just when the United Nations had all but won the final victory. After reaching the Manchurian border, the U.N. forces were compelled to withdraw within 50 miles north of Pyongyang, the Allied-held former red capital. Observers in Tokyo said McArthur's communique in effect was asking United Nations authority to bomb Manchurian airfields, supply bases and communications to stop China from pumping fresh strength into the defeated North Korean forces. The situation was fraught with the danger of igniting into a third world war. It caused deep concern in world capitals. It presented the United Nations the gravest crisis in its five-year history. WAR SITUATION SEOUL (AP)—American troops in northwest Korea this afternoon recovered a half-mile or ground lost to a morning communist attack and fought bitterly for no gain in the northeast against an enemy newly identified by General MacArthur.

Calif.—Mostly clear and sunny Tuesday but considerable night and morning fog along coast. General MacArthur Warren Faces Biggest Test FDR Name Looms High In Battle By MORRIE LANDSBERG SAN FRANCISCO (AP)—Governor Warren faces probably the biggest political test of his long career in going up against James Rosevelt in California's election tomorrow. It is not only the fact the Republican chief executive is the last ever to seek a third term in state. (Only two of California's 30 governors won second terms—Warren and the late Hiram Johnson.) Vote As You See It EDITOR'S NOTE Tomorrow is one of the most important days of 1950. It is an election day when the people will select officials and approve or disapprove ballot propositions. The election will have a long-term effect on all California. Newspapers and other special interests will very conveniently give you a "marked" ballot "showing" YOU how to vote. The Gazette feels this is wrong. It is a presumption that you are not intelligent enough to participate in our form of government. Your vote is your own. In these days it actually is sacred. So, vote for the candidates and the propositions you feel will bring the most real benefit to our state and its citizens. Don't follow the "guidance" of special interest—except the special interest of you and your neighbors, as determined by you. Here is the list of candidates and propositions appearing on your ballot tomorrow: Top Offices Hold Interest In State Vote With most county races settled at the primary election, the local political interest in the election tomorrow centers largely on the election of a governor, senator, and state attorney general. Of primary local interest to the voters is the Anaheim Township constable race in which Haskell Kelley is pitted against challenger C. H. "Lefty" Hunt. Anaheim and Orange county are expected to turn in control. Majorities for Governor Warren in his fight to beat James Roosevelt and for Congressman Richard Nixon in his bid for the U.S. Senate. Gazette reporters at the court house in Santa Ana say the late, but spirited, campaigning in the county and the interest in the ballot propositions may cause a heavy turnout of voters tomorrow. County Clerk B. J. Smith is predicting 75 to 78 per cent of the registered voters may vote. This would mean a turnout of about 75,000 voters. Mr. Smith said 1388 absentee ballots have been issued, a number showing more than ordinary interest in the election. And, generally, the other Republicans on the ticket are expected to win the favor of local voters. However, Republican Edward S. Shattuck may have a squeaker in his attorney general race with Democrat Edmund G. "Pat" Brown. Shattuck has been tormented with letters purporting to expose him as a "professional veteran" which apparently has hurt his chances of any big California majorities for attorney general. It is predicted he will have to run strong in Southern California. Here is the list of candidates and propositions appearing on your ballot tomorrow: STATE— Governor (Vote for One) Earl Warren, Republican James Roosevelt, Democrat Lieutenant Gov.

HELP WANTED The Community Chest Red Feather banner, the one with the blue Korean writing which hung over Center st., at Lemon managed to stay aloft during last week's wind session, but, now has been removed for repairs. With campaign advertising fund already depleted, publicity chairman Bert Arnold today called for a small scale march of dimes to do the job. Ten centes from a hundred people will do the trick, Arnold said, adding that contributions will be accepted at or may be mailed in to campaign headquarters, 139 N. Los Angeles st.
