Russia Tries
Ouster At U.H.
Of Trygve Lie
Veto Blocks Retention
Of Secretary, But Final
Okay Seems Certain
LAKE SUCCESS (.P) Soviet
Foreign Minister Vishinsky made
it clear today he would continue
Russia'! fight against Trygve Lie
when the question of extending the
U. N. Secretary General term
is raised in the general assembly.
He refused to explain to report
ers why Russia cast her 46th veto
in the security council Thursday
to block Lie's re-election to a new
live-year term, but said that when
the time comes to make more de
tailed objections he will have some
thing to say.
Obviously this was a reference
to the expected move by the United
States and its friends to get Lie's
present term extended by the veto-
, free assembly, possibly for a period
of as long as three years. In
less it is extended, Lie'i term ex
pires Feb. 2.
Vishinsky was asked whether
Lie's attitude on Korea was at the
base of the Soviet objections. The
i Soviet foreign minister smiled and
said: "I cannot be more precise
ft this time."
V. S. Representative Warren R.
Austin, talking to reporters after
the secret session of the council,
said:
"There was never a moment of
doubt in our (the American) pos
ition. We have been for Lie from
the beginning. We consider him ex
ceptionally gifted with extraordin
ary characteristics fitting him for
this job for which there is no prec
edent." Well-informed sources here are
sure that the general assembly
will extend Lie's term of office for
another three years as the U. S.
wishes.
Authoritative sources said the
Soviet opposition came from Lie',
"oTorel'viou0 toNFat 'h.
had often been denounced by var-
ions American organs or opinion
as overly friendly to the Russians,

But the argument over censuring

As finally passed, the resolution

TOKYO (,T Thirty-seven
bombarding warships, South Kor
ean ground forces and a'hpd planea
hacked away today at Red Korean
supply lines from Soviet Siberia
on the blazing new northeastern
coastal fighting front.
The kuks were 120-odd miles
from the 130-mile-long .northeast
ern coastal strip where the United
Nations bombardment fleet led by
the Battleship Missouri poured fir
and Heel ashore Thursday and Fri
day -in continuing big . gun and
carrier plane assaults.
(Red Korea's Premier Kim II
Sung was quoted by the Chinese
Communist radio as acknowledg
ing Wednesday: "Sow our mother
land is in a very dangerous po
sition." It a p p e a r e d to be his
frankest admission that his Russian-sponsored
regime faces de
feat. Previously he was defiant).
Shells from the Mighty Mo's 16
inch guns crashed onto coastal tar
gels at more than seven tons
minute. British, Australian, Can
adian and other American war
ships were in the naval force.
The targets were port and rail
linea and anything else that re
mains to support the Red Korean
war effort on routes into Red
Korea from China and the Soviet
Union.
On the ground fighting fronts,
allied spearheads met increasingly
heavy resistance in their push to
ward Pyongyang, the Red capital
near the west coast. Two Red divi
sions were reported racing from
the Ongjin peninsula to help tha
defenders of Kumchon, 75 milei
southeast of Pyongyang.
Land Battles Stubborn
The naval pounding extended
from Songiin northward beyond the
flaming iron and steel port of
Chongjin.
The operations shattered Com
munist supply lines far ahead of
United Nations ground forces rol
ling into North Korea along a 130
mile fighting front.
At the west end of that front,
in an area that lies 65 to 75 miles
southeast of Pyongyang, a firece
and confusing battle raged.
American spearheads within 65
miles of Pyongyang were at grips
with Red troops. An estimated
20.000 Communists fought south of
them and two Red divisions
were reported moving in from the
west.

tured more than 1.400 Communistj

total close to 60,000 for the dur

MONTGOMERY. Ala. (JP)
A 24-year-old former policeman
who was acquitted of murdering

guilty Thursday to an indictment

man with violating the Negro's
civil rights.
Doyle Milchum admitted that he
beat the youth with a stick and

Acquitted with Mitchum in the
Negro's death was James R.

18-ycar-old Willie B. Carlisle, died
of head injuries after a fall.
After their acquittal, the FBI
