Communists stood in the way.
Almond said at least one Chinese
Red regiment had pushed to with-
in 15 miles of the east coast in-
dustrial center of Hamhung. Later,
a 10th Corps spokesman confirmed
that a second Chinese regiment is
in the area, about midway between
the Seventh Division’s landing
point of Iwon and Wonsan, 100 air
miles to the south.
The U S. Marines landed last
week at Wonsan’and are mopping
up bypassed Reds In the area
Attacks Coming
Almond said attacks to deter-
mine Chinese Communist strength
were coming shortly.
"In the next few days," he add-
ed. "we will develop what is there.
You cannot go by prisoner reports.
You cannot tell if there are two
Chinese divisions (as unofficially
reported previously by South Ko-
reans) until you attack in enough
strength and on a broad enough
front.”
The first Chinese regiment identi-
fied was the 370th The spokes-
man did not name the second, but
said it was battling the Republic
of Korea iROKi 26th Regiment

ervoir, 30 miles northwest of Ham-

Previous reports of two Chinese
divisions were variously identified.

armor rimmed roughshod
‘over rallying Reds in north-

within 19 air miles of the
Communist Manchurian bor-
der.
TTie swift ground thrust to Char-
yongwan by a tank column of the
U S. 24th Division came after fierce
Communist counterattacks along
the Chong River were repulsed
Tuesday night.
U. 8. Eighth Army headquarters
said the column was pushing to-
ward the Yalu River boundary city
of Cinulju against lessening resist-
ance. Slnuiju is across the Yalu
from Antung. big Chinese Red air-
base in Manchuria.
Red Korean resistance along
most of the northern battlefront
was stiff. Communist cavalry swept
down on Allied forces.
Cavalry had not been used to
any extent earlier In the war. The
Red Koreans who Invaded South
Korea June 25 were equipped with
Russian-made tanks, field pieces
and automatic weapons.
The use of Cavalry In the Orient
harks back to the Mongolian hordes
that swept across the Asian plains
centuries ago.
A second Chinese Red regiment
officially was reported tn action In
In Tokyo, intelligence officers still
said they were unable to clarify
the situation.
In the far northeast, mounted
patrols of . the ROK Capital Divi-
sion probeef the area north of Kil-
chu, 62 air miles southwest of
Cbongjln, the last big Korean port
south of the Soviet Siberian border.
Kllchu Is a rail and highway
hub. Routed from it lead both to
Russian territory and to the Ko-
rean- Manchurian border The ROK
patrols, thus far. were unopposed.
The keystone of the Red defense
appeared to be a rough triangle
formed by the towns of Unsan,
On Jong and Hulchon, In the north-
west and central sectors some 50
miles south of the border.
It was in this area that an es-
timated 1,000 Red cavalrymen
swept down on hard-pressed ROK
regiments trying to regroup south
of Onjong and Unsan.
Elements of the ROK First Divi-
sion drove off a strong Red coun-
ter-attack tn the Unsan area, the
sixth in 48 hours. General Mac-
Arthur's war summary reported
the division made a limited with-
drawal. but restored positions and
took 210 prisoners Tuesday.

HEADQUARTERS, Korea,
Nov. 1 — (AP) — Russian-
made jet fighters shot it out
with slower American Mus-
tangs in dogfights over north-
western Korea today.
A U. 8. Fifth Air Force spokes-
man said neither side lost any
planes.
The air fights broke out over
Bonchon. about 33 air miles south-
east of the Korean-Manchurian
border town of Sinutju. An earlier
Air Force report that American
F-80 Shooting Star Jets fought the
enemy Jets was termed In error.
One pUot said a flight of Amer-
ican Mustangs was attacked by six
enemy Jet aircraft.
The pUot said the attacking jets
were of a swept back wing type
resembling the American F-86
Sabre which holds the world speed
record of 670 mUes an hour.
A ilmllar Russian jet is a swept
back wing plane called the MIO-15
with a recorded top speed of 625
miles an hour.

They were shot down in a furious gun battle outside. One was killed. Three membei

Truman was in the presidential residence, the Blair House, when the shootings oc-
curred about 2:15 p.m., (1:15 p.m. CST), a few minutes before he was to leave for a «
ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. i# •
Police Inspector Hobart Francis told reporters: “I presume it was an attempt to as-
