Flight To Freedom Nears End
CHINA REFUGEES REACH NAPLES
Naples, Nov. 23.
A round-the-world flight to freedom is nearing an end for the last 1,315 re- fugees to get out of China before Communism closed its ports.
They came here from Shang- hai in a 55-day journey aboard the motorship Anna Sulen, char- tered by the International Re- fugée Organisation.
But those. 55 days were only a short chapter in their dight, for most of them were returning 'o Europe after 10, 20 and 30 years.

Tokyo, Nov. 24. '· Supreme Commander General MacArthur who is in Korea announced today a general assault on the enemy troops.
His order sent three American divisions, four South Koroan divisions and smaller UN units into the deep defence line manned by Communist forces who for the past few days have shown reluctance to fight.-United Press.
General MacArthur flew to Korea at 5.45 a.m. today to be on hand for the beginning of the massive assault. His head- quarters in Tokyo announced that he was "personally present on the Western sector of the Korean battle front.”
A Decisive
Effort
The text of the Headquarters communique, said: "The UN massive envelopment in North Korea against new Red armies operating there is now approaching its decisive effort. Isolating a com- ponent of the pincer, our air forces of all types have for the past three weeks in a sustained attack of model co-ordination and effectiveness, successfully interdicted enemy lines of support from the north so that further reinforcement from there has been sharply curtailed and essen- tial supplies markedly limited.
"The eastern sector of the pincer with noteworthy and effective naval support has steadily adyanced in a brilliant tactical movement and has now reached a commanding and enveloping position, cutting in two the northern reaches of the enemy's geographical position.

COMMENT OF THE DAY

Door Open To Peace Talks
THE sudden spate of rumours that there, will shortly be on-the-spot pegotiations to settle the problem of Chinese intervention in North Korea: scem to have little firm basis. The rumours appear to find their inspiration from the action of the Chinese in releasing 27 Allied prisoners of war, and the cryptic observation by a spokes-" man at General MacArthur's head- quarters that "there is a reason" for the United Nations force halting their advance towards the Manchurian. frontier. The release of prisoners of war is a nice gesture, but is not in Itself bufficient to warrant the convic tion that it bignals the willingness of the Chinese Communists to withdraw all their forces from Koren. As for the Korenson why the United Nations advance had been stopped that is fully explained, by today'a unexpected announcement of a general assault By UN forces under the orders of General MacArthur.
