Reds May Hit In Big Push WASHINGTON I The United States has tipped off its 16 Allies in Korea mat the communists might be planning a new offen sive. The State Department disclosed late Friday that it circulated a warning 10 days ago against the possibility of "renewed Communist aggression." The on-guard mes sage went to all United Nations members helping in the Korean fight. The department said "there must be no faltering" should the Communists once again try to engulf U. N. forces on the penin sula. The declaration was in effect a correction of a 'statement by Sec retary of State Dean Acheson to a news conference Wednesday. Acheson Is now in Europe, helping negotiate agreements for a German peace contract and for German participation in the defense of Europe against Communism. The secretary told his news con ference, before leaving, that no warning had been sent to the Phil ippines about new Communist ag gression in the Far East. Presi dent Elpidio Quirino of the Phil ippines had told reporters his gov ernment received such a warning. and was concerned about it. To set the record straight,' the State Department said: "It has now been learned that President Quirino was referring to a statement which had been made recently In Washington (May 33) io wc representatives oi all na tions participating In the U. N. action In Korea about the Commu nist buildup In North Korea and their capabilities for renewed of fensive action." Quirino, the statement said, was quite right....in realizing the iiari. ous potentials of this buildup." nu ireeaom loving nations must be constantly alert tn iwa- sible renewed Communist aggres sion," the 8tate Department said. This echoed a declaration by Quirino. RADAR AID TACOMA Wash. 11 The Panlfir.
