"The landing at Inchon was a

"During the two weeks following

United Nations
Approve Peace
Resolution
Vishinsky Is Rebuffed
On Maneuver To Give
Recognition To China
LAKE SUCCESS t.P) The
U. N. political committee today
unanimously approved a resolu
tion calling for big power peace
consultations after rebuffing two
attempts by Andrei Y. Vishinsky
to gain recognition for the Chinese
Communist regime. It was a rare
show 0 f the unanimity in the U. N.
The Soviet foreign minister
fought hard to have the commit
tee list specifically the name of
the Chinese People's Republic
among the great powers but the
committee twice voted his motion
was not acceptable at this time.
This leaves the Nationalist Chinese
still in their U. N. seat.
The resolution recommends that
the permanent members of the se -
: c . D-;..:
1-uiiijr iuum.il riiNit,
China. United States and the So
viet Union meet and discuss all
problems likely to threaten inter
national peace.
Vishinsky urged the committee
against an "ostrich" policy but on
the final count he voted yes.
The committee, however, refused
to accept his demand for the
munists. The first vole was 26
against. 13 in favor and 16 abstain-!"?
ing. The second vote was 35
against, 12 in favor and 11 abstain
ing. The committee actually did not
express itself on the question of
recognizing the Chinese Commu
nists. It only decided that Vishin
sky could not wedge the issue into
a resolution by Iraq and Syria call
ing for the big five to consult on
their disagreements.
At the outset, Vishinsky de
manded that the committee steer
clear of an "ostrich policy" and
recognise the . Communist re
gime ai the government of China.
Nationalist China answered that
the question was not acceptable
at the present stage of the debate
and the committee upheld that
view.

COI.D SPRING HARBOR, N. Y.
HP Henry L. Stimson, the
first American to hold cabinet of
fice under four presidenta, died
yesterday of a audden heart at
tack. He was 83 years old.
Stimson was secretary of war
under Presidents William Howard
Taft, Franklin O. Roosevelt and
Harry Truman, and was Herbert
Hoover's only secretary of alate.
Three months ago Stimson fell
and broke his hip, but was making
a good recovery and getting about
with wheelchair and crutches. Yes
terday afternoon he and Mrs. Stim
son set out on a drive around the
estate. He was stricken in the car
waa taken home immediately, and
died a few minutes later.
Stimson was the first leading
statesman in any western country
to demand a tough crackdown oa
the aggressors of the 1930s. His
policy failed at the time, but aa
America's secretary of war from
Pearl Harbor to Hiroshima, he
directed the army and air force
that helped redeem it.
While Stimson's four years as
secretary of state, 1929 to 1933,
were distinguished, military men
and historians have ranked him
with Lincoln's Edwin M. Stanton
as one of the two greatest secretar
ies of war in American history.

Phone System's
Extension In 1951
To Cost $141,000
More new telephone construction
work in the Roseburg area, in ad- j
dition to projects previously a n
nounced and al eady under way, it
programme" for early next year,
according tn R. J. Henwood, man
ager tor the Pacific Telephone and
Telegraph company.
Scheduled to start In January is
a line extension job to serve the
Lookingglass district west of Rose
burg. It involves erecting better
than three miles of poles, placing
ten miles of lead-covered aerial
cable, and stringing several miles
of open wire. Cost of this project,
which will serve an estimated 92
telephones initially, is said to be
in the neighborhood of $52,000.
Also set to begin in January is the
work of providing additional facil
'" to serve the Winchester-Wil-
1 bur area. Present cables are to be
i ' 'ui i .. .ukuw-j
to Winchester, and new open-wire
leads are to be constructed into
new subdivisions along the way,
Henwood aaid. According to t h e
company's forecast, some 4O0 more
telephones will be connected under
the project, whirh is expected to
cost roughly $43,000.
Buckhorn Read Included
Another project, scheduled to get
underway in March, will serve a
number o' small farms, two saw
mills and several logging operations
in a seven-mile strip along Buck
horn Road east of Roseburg. This
job includes extending three miles
of cable east of Dixonville, con
structing better than eleven miles
of pole line for joint power and tel
ephone use, and placing aerial wire
circuits alon'? Strader road and
Buckhorn road. Henwood said this
project, to serve some 50 tele
phones initially, will cost about
$32,000.
In May, a $14,000 job will be
started in the Sunshine road area
to bring telephone service to sev
eral large stock ranches and sum
mer homes in an eight-mile stretch
between the North Umpqua high-
way and the Norm umpqua river,
All of these line extension and
construction projects are expected
to be completed by next August,
Henwood said.

Gen. MacArthur'i headquarters
said the fast-moving paratroopers
had aealed off 28.000 Communist
Koreana after cascading behind the

were nearly half of the estimated

All arteries of escape were
blocked for the North Korean Reds
in the Sunehon-Sukchon area,
where the 4.200 U. S. airborne

Surprise Maneuver
The surprise maneuver left an

A Mac Arthur spokesman said
there waa no aign of 'any organ

Resistance in Pyongyang was pe

Gen. MacArth 'ir said he was eon.
fident that the end of the fighting
and s victory for the U. N. forces
are near at hand. Five South Ko
rean divisions were preparing to
rush to the Manchurian border
to cut off escape routes for the
shattered remaining Red forces,
who were surrendering in droves.

The airdrop, whirh sealed the
