day alter a little enrly demand,

Such export business that exist

stem the alump. . ,
Some moisture In Kansas, plans
to move Canadian wheat to this
country for drying, and uncertainty
over the Korean situation appeared
to be the main factors in discour

U.S. casualties had been pretty

the injured then took them to a
"hospital" called "bunkers."

these "rooms" sleeping on the

Jim was given ether on two dif
ferent occasions but he does not
know what treatment wan given,

some young women nurses but tho
