Directors Agree On Ways Of Rearming West Europe

LONDON. July w-(AP)- The civilian directors of the North Atlantic Alliance announced a un- animous agreement tonight on ways to accelerate defence produc. tion In western Europe. ,

The directors are deputy foreign ministers of the 12 member coun- tries. They pened secret sessions here last Tuesday under the chairmanship of Charles Spofford of the United States.

Details of the agreement were withheld. But Spofford told ra- porters-there have been tangible results in the drive to rearm the west against Communism and the decisions are being sent to the member governments.

A communique issued by the group said the deputies "have discussed the practical measures required to build up the defen- cos of the west in the shortest possible time," and continued:

"The deputies are unanimously agreed that the deterioration in the world situation by the un- provoked act of aggression com- mitted against the Republic of (South) Korea. which is now be- ing dealt with by the United Na- tions. makes it more important than ever for the governments of the North Atlantic Treaty coun- tries to accelerate the steps ne- cessary for their common de- fence."

Spofford told his press confer- ence the deputies have acted on matters other than defence pro- duction. but declined to elaborate.

Treaty members are Canada. the United States. Britain, France. Italy. Belgium. The Netherlands. Luxembourg. Norway. Denmark Portugal and Iceland.

Briiish Parliameni is Adjourned

DONDON. July 28 - (GP) Parliament adjourned today for the long summer recess with thoughts of a new election receding farther into the background.

Now that war and the threat of war dominate political thinkins. it seems likely that energies will be increasingly diverted from straight party-line-struggles o concern for Britain's military preparedness.

Prime Minister Attlee now has weightier things to worry about than the best time to hold an elec- tion. He is regarded as almost cer-. tain to pass up the possibility of an autumn vote, once onsidered a certainty.

Labor has always been a party which shrank from the prospect of war. If the international situa- tion took a sharp turn for the worse. the possibility of some kind of coalition government could not be ruled out.

Plane day Have Hii High Tension lire

RID Dli JANTTTLRO, July 1 - (AP)-- A Brazilian Constellation plane crashed and caught fire to- night outside Porto Alegre. killing all 49 persons aboard.

Among the 43 passengers was an American. Ralph Motley, 48, sales manager for the Atlantic Refining Company. All others aaboard ap- parently were Brazilians. The crew numbered six.

The crash was the worst air dis- aster in Brazil's history and the fourth in 16 months. The big plane, which belonged to Panair Do Brazil, had left Rio de Janeiro this morning. It encountered bad weather while approaching Porto Alegrc. a port city on the Atlantic Ocean about 700 air miles south- west of Rio de Janeiro.

One report said the craft circled for 90 minutes before crashing on a hill near an airport built by the Brazilian army about 12 miles out- side Porto Alegre. It may have hit a high tension line.

The plane. belonging to Psnair Do Brazil. was on a return flight to Rio de Janeiro from form Alegro at the time of the crash. The constellation had left the cap-

azil's Worst Air Crash

Speculate Russia May.

LAKE SUOCES. N. Y.. July 28-(AP)-United Nation delegates speculated today that Russia's re- turn to the Security Council next Tuesday may signal the start of another Russian peace offensive.

One high delegate. voicing the consensus of several persons at the U. N., said the so-called Stockholm peace petition cam- paign by Russia has failed and Ulla Russians must try something e se.

Another envoy. who has four years' service in Moscow, said he believes Soviet military leaders figure the Communists may win the Korean war soon and that the Kremlin had decided to step back to the council and demand peace at that stage.

It wins noted the announcement Thursday night of Russia's de- clsion came about the time the North Koreans launched a major offensive in an effort to drive the American and other U. N. forces of! the Korean peninsula.

But regardless of what Russia

Start Peace Offensive

Deputy Foreign Minister. takes the council chair for August. the president for July. Arne Sunde of Norway. said: "We will not allow anyone to sabotage the work of the council."

Sunde called an informal meet- ing of several delegations in his New York office to so over the various possibilities.

The Security Council met brief- ly today for further discussion of the report of the unified command under Gen. Douglas MacArthur but the news the Russians were coming back after a six-month boycott was uppermost in the minds of the delegates.

Britain, France. Cubs. China and Ecuador praised the stand of U. N. forces against the, Commun- lst North Korean invaders and ex- pressed determination to press the U. N. fight until peace is restor- ed.

Sir Benegal Ran of India urged the North Koreans again to com- ply with the Council resolution of June 25 and withdraw to the 38th parallel, the boundary between North and South Korea.

American Army Facing Toughest Test in Korea

(Special to The Guardian by "Ross Munro) .

TOKYO U. N. HEADQUART- ERS. Japan-(Saturday)-Ame-rim an forces of the hard-pressed Eighth Army this weekend are facing what is probably the tough-

est test of the murderous Korean”

war. The Communists are prepar- ing to "shoot the wor " to try and-drlve'"A1nkrlcan.s back to-the sea in s chaos of an Oriental Dun- kerque.

The Reds are using their three best divisions in a breakthrough attempt on the central front one hundred miles up the highway from Pusan on the southeast coast. Opposing them are the Am- erican 25ih infantry and lot Cav- alry Divisions. outnumbered four to one but with superior artillery firepower and masses of air sup- port.

Seeking Quick Decision

A E. Q. spokesman said the next few days will be the most import- ant from the Communist view- point. Reds are seeking a decision now and it must be gained quick- ly or else the tide will certainly turn with the Americans firmly stabilizing a,line for the buildup of the U. N. offensive which will see Commonwealth troops engag- ed.

The are around southeast Kored which the Americans and South Koreans are defending is danger- ously chsllow but senior officers maintain confidence that a break- through will be prevented. Cor- respondents just back from the front, however. think it may be a iossup. It is clear that more in- faniry troops are needed.

lndusiry Working iii Top Capacity

OTTAWA. July 2sOiOP)-canad- inn ' 4 t y is working at peak cap- acity and any sudden rash of heavy war orders beyond current commit- ments may require the employment of emergency allocation controls. Trade Minister Howe said in an in- terview today.

At the moment the government was not planning controls, Mr. Howe said. Industry was producing all the gooa required by the fight- ing forces.

"We have good supplies of sugar and other consumer goods. as wall as such strategic commodities as tin and rubber." he said. "We are con- tinuing to buy more tin and our synthetic rubber plant. at Sarnia, ont.. is capable of producing all the rubber we require."

Smash -Bush 0 Of An Eslimaied 90.000 yids

S TOKYO, July 20 - (Saturday) - (AP) - A slashing counter- attack by United States troops has hurled back the big Red push in the centre of the biasing Korean war front, a field dispatch said today.

The dispatch said il:c.oounter- attack regained positions lost dur- ing a night of furious fighting. The Americans had been thrown back in a supreme Communist bid to

conquer the last one-third of southeast Korea. Associated Press correspondent

Don Whitehead in a dispatch at 11:25 A. M. (9:25 P. M. Friday, EDT.) reported the line now was stabilized.

He presumably referred to the critical Hwanggan sector 95 miles northwest of the American supply port of Pusan.

The latest information at U. S. 8th army headquarters in Korea said both the U.S. First Cavalry and the 25th Divisions had restored the positions they held -when the big push by an estimated 90.000 Reds began yesterday.

Whitehead said the first Ameri- can counterattack by both divis- ions had checked the Communists Friday after some ground was lost. A second rounterblow today smash- ed the Reds back to their original positions.

The North Koreans kicked off Fri- day in pre-dawn darkness. Their tank-led charges followed up inces- sant overnight Red artillery bar- rages that have continued thunder- ing day and night against American big-gun fire.

The artillery barrage and obser- vations of enemy concentrations had left no doubt that "this is it."
