Koreans Fight
Blindly to Keep
Nation Surviving
SEOUL (IB The living cily of
Seoul lies hidden behind broad ave
nues and tall, modern office build-
ings blasted hollow by passing war.
... It survives in narrow hack alleys
- tand in acres of overcrowded shacks
piled against each other away from
the main thoroughfares of the city.
. In these squalid shanty towns
1 are the neoDle. the small industry.
; and the commerce struggling blind-
; ly rrom any to day to keep Korea s
; only big city alive.
The success of this organized
human effort constantly amazes
unitetr Nations relief officials try
ing to organize the shell-torn for
mer capital on a solid economic
basis.
r Many citizens ot Seoul are hun
gry, some suffer from malnutrition
,, (an. average of 5 per cent), but
none starves openly.
The serious cases of malnutrition-come
in waves from refugee
groups wno gather at the south
bank of the Han Uiver waiting
. some day to go north to their farms.
Oily Is "Closed"
Seoul is a "closed" city. Those
who lied south from the Commit
nistg and others are prohibited
i from entering because of the pos
sibility that it must.be evacuated
again in the tides of war.
Seoul's sub-surface life is so hid
den from both Korean and U. N.
officials that no one can estimate
exactly its population.
Alter allied troops reoccupied the
capital in March, 1951. 150,000 Ko
rean civilians lived in Seoul and
Its suburbs. In November of the
- same year, 800,000 people were be-
. lieved to be in the city and today
; : the number is well on its way to
900,000, despite official efforts to
halt the influx.
K refugee can pay 50,000 won or
: about $2.50 to bribe a Korean bus
driver to take him and his family
across the Han to Seoul. Others
sneak Into the city on foot or by
hitch-hiking.
No Daily Rytlim
There Is barely a trace on the
surface of the swelling population.
The city has no daily rhythm, no
movement to and from work, nor
any rush hour. It's people seem to
mBl nimlessly in back-alleys and
few venture on the main streets.
f More than one-third of Seoul's
"people depend on United Nations
relief rations to keep them from
starving. Less than one-third are
self-supporting. The rest need out
side help, only occasionally to sur
iVive. ,
An average Korean rarely can
tind steady work in either heavy
. or Unlit industry: the war virtual
ly destroyed Korea's feeble begin-!
Prangs in industrialization.
Light "home" industries were
: "left -hiainly intact. They are con
tlnulng the economic life of the
nation today.
More than 350 small industries
. if all kinds have sprung up in the
city in back alleys, houses and
: ruined buildings.
-;. This rash of independent busi
nessmen is one of the few positive
healthy signs in Korean life today.
The worker in the new small
plants and in the bigger, government-controlled
industries has no
union, nor does he especially want
One,
The bitterness of war has brand
ed Unions somehow with the stig
, ma of Communism, and the people-of
Seoul fear and avoid any
organization which possibly could
be linked to Communism.

"my heart" to a misty-eyed audi
ence in which he viewed Nixon as
the kind of fighting man he pre
fers to have beside him, rather
than a "whole boxcar full of pus-syfooters."
tisennower had gone to Pub
lic Hall Tuesday night to read
an address which he had prepared
m nis campaign against in tint ion.
Instead he talked without text
about Nixon.
Hear Explanation
He, Mrs. Eisenhower and close
advisers had listened, in a small
room near tho hall, to the 39-year-old
Republican vice presi
dential candidate's 30-minutc ex
planation Horn California of his
financial worth over radio and
television' networks.
During Nixon's talk, Eisenhow
er took notes on a yellow-ruled
pau on wnat ins youthful run
ning mate had to say about what
he did with the controversial $18,
000 expense account put up by
wealthy California supporters.
When Nixon had finished, Eis
enhower dictated a telegram of
encouragement to his partner in
pontics ana invited him to a face
to face meeting in Wheeling, W.
Va.
Then Eisenhower, in a dramatic
gesture, threw his prepared anti-
intlatlon text to the Iloor and
walked Into the auditorium. There
he found many women in tears.
They had heard Nixon's words
echo over a loud speaker In the
auditorium.
Hf have seen many brave men
In tough situations," Eisenhow
er said. "I have never seen any
come through In better fashion
than Senator Nixon did to
night." Eisenhower said he believed
many critics would continue to
pick at Nixon.
"But I do say this, that when a
man in further answer of what
he believes to be correct and right
stands up in front of all the
American people and bares his
soul, brings his family with him
and tolls the truth and brings
with him every bit of evidence
that he can get hold of to sub
stantiate his story, to bare the
secrets of his eeondmic and fi
nancial life, he is a courageous
man," Eisenhower said.
Eisenhower then contrasted
Nixon's current predicament with
the plight that faced the late Gen.
George S. Patton Jr. in the widely
publicized soldier-slapping inci
dent ot World War II.
Comparison Made
Eisenhower had reprimanded
Patton, his dear friend, in a let
ter that made the tough-talking
general hang his head In shame.
But Eisenhower, as commander
of all Allied forces In Europe, lat
er put Patton in command of an
army that made World War II
history.
"I believed that the worth of
that man was too great to sacri
fice," Eisenhower said. "He made
amends for his error. He has gone
before the highest judge of all,
but certainly George Patton jus
tified my faith.
Nixon
(Continued from Page 1)
made of the expense fund supplied
him by wealthy backers.
The audit, made by Price-Wat-
erhouse and Company of Los, An
geles, said Nixon did not make
"any financial gain" from the ex
pense fund organized by attorney
Liana smith ot fasadena, Calif.
Nixon also said that a leeal
firm, Gibson, Dunn and Crutchcr,
investigated the fund. It reported
that Nixon did not violate any fed
eral or state law by accepting the
expense money, and contributors
also were clear of any legal wrong
doing.
Nixon, speaking from notes, said
Stevenson and Sparkman should
"come before the American peo
ple as I have, and make a com
plete financial statement as to
their financial history." ,,;
"You have read in the papers
about other funds," he said. "Mr.'
Stevenson apparently had a couple.
And as far as Mr. Sparkman is
concerned he has had his wife
on the federal payroll. I don't con
clenin him for that, but I think he
should come before the American
people and indicate what outside
sources of income he has had."
Nixon then repeated his earlier
claim that demands for his resig
nation were a "smear." He
pledged, however, to continue his
campaign for the Republican party
no matter what happens to h I m
personally.
Rare Instrument,
Viola ifAmore,
Again Being Used
WASHINGTON Ml The search
for a rare ISIIi century musical
Instrument has resulted in a budd
ing violin shop and organization of
an unusual musical society.
When Edgar M. Hoover began
to look for an Italian viola d' a more
in music stores and antiques shops,
none was to be found. Hoover de?
cided to build one of the obsolete
instruments, .
He found Willis Gault. a part
time violin teacher and part-time
violin maker who became interest
ed in the project, The two drew up
plans for the viola from old docu
ments and bodks and got measure
ments from two museum pieces in
the Library of Congress.
Hoover made a viola his first
after about four months and is now
learning to master it. Gault is al
ready constructing his second viola
d'umore and prospects look good
for u successful violin-viola shop
in the future.
Society Formed
The revival of interest in this
ancient musical instrument also
has resulted In the organization
by about u doijen musicians here
of a Society of Ancient Musical
Instruments, one of only several in
this country. The first society was
founded in France about 50 years
ago.
The instrument itself is a 14
slring forerunner to the modern

violin with a foinoetave range
the i violin litis three. The viola
d'amoro is larger than u violin and
has seven strings on top, with sev
en sympathetic strings directly
underneath that are tuned In uni
son to give out a deeper and richer
tone. It is played like the violin
but the bow and finger movements
tire much more intricate.
It has been described us an in
strument "rarely expressive" which
has a . "languishing and tender
tone." Hoover says it produces a
"distinctive silvery lone with a
reedy edge."
The early history ot the viola
d'amore, though centuries old, is
obscure but it is known that it was
created about 300 years ago. It is
said to have been favored in the
18th century by such composers as
Bach, Mozart, Weber, and Vivaldi.
