,1 By cnannzs WHITING LONDON. Dec. 29 (AP) "; An anonymous letterp to a Gi 5- gow newspaper provided toni 1

ll clue to the whereabouts ,1 missing coronation stone. W The letter contained a petition ii to the King laying down certain ; conditions under which the 485- 4. pound relic would be returned to the authorities.

One of the conditions was that the stone would be retained in Scotland in a place to be selected by the Kink.

The petition gave as proof of good faith a description of hither- in unpu-blicized faults in a watch loft. in Westminster Abbey when the stone was stolen from there early Christmas morning.

The detectives' hope that it might be in the lake was kept alive by sighting of a mysterious object. on the slimy bottom late tori:i,t'.

lniokin; through a. glass-bottoim

barrel. they confirmed that the obbtlct was the right size and shank. Darkness interrupted their attem its to raise it.

The jlrcdging was begun after scotlan n,Yard received an anony- mous ii.p yesterday that the stone had been dumped into the lake.

Hundreds gathered on the lake's shores to watch. cheered when it was announced that a mysterious somcthinz had been found. They groancd when it turned out to be the rusty safe.

The detectives brought. up spe- cial tackle. flood lights and din- ghies with books and chains to help in their work.

Everybody was getting into the act.

Newspapers printed letters from outraged -- and some delighted- Britons about the theft.

All-out all Assault Has Not Malerialized

By Robert Eunson

TOKYO. Dec. 30 - (Saturday)- (AP)-Contmunist probing units denied the fluid eastern sector of the United Nations line in Korea and moved closer to Seoul in the west. but the expected all-out Red assault had not yet materialized today.

North Korean Red units search- ing for soft spots in the U. N. front drove four to lo miles south of the 38th parallel in the east.

Chinese army outposts moved tip snugly against the Imlin River in the west, 10 miles south of the parallel and 25 miles northwest of Seoul.

Continue Build-Up

The enemy moves came as a huge Chinese and North Korean Communist force continued build- ing up under heavy Allied air at- tacks for a mass assault which Al- lied officers at the front expect to come with the new year.

Gen. MacArthur has predicted

the big Red push will come be- tween Jan. 1 and 10. Associated Press correspondents

Hal Boyle reported that an attac'.c by 10.000 North Korean Reds through the east-ceiitral sector of the line had been contained after

gaining three miles at points four

to five miles sontl-i 0!ffh0'DICe”m parallel boundary of North ahrlt South'Kprea. This was about 35 miles in from Korea's east coast.

An Eighth Army spokesman also said the enemy had shoved 10 miles beyond the parallel at an undisclosed point 25 miles. from the coast. Fighting -for posit- ions beizan in that area a wceli ago. field reports said. -

In the west. United Nations for- ces were arrayed south of the ice- jammed Imjin River. The appear- ance of enemy patrols across the river from Munsan was reported in Gen. MacArthur's headquarters summary. Munsan is 25 miles northwest of seoul.

Situation Confused

A corps spokesman in the U. 5. Eighth Army told cnrresponricnt. Boyle that Tliui'sdny's the cast. ccntrnl sector was aimed at. Chiinchon. He said "the situat- ion Lveonfused but there now is a dip in our line" extending four or five miles south of the 38th par- allel in limited sector.

Since our Trans-Canada High-. way runs from "Ferry to Feii;v" -Wood -Islands "to Borden it. means that most of the work will be done in Queen's County.
