British efforts to gain lead in civil aviation

London, July 19.

Britain has sent 28 new planes aloft in the past,

12 months in its struggle to regain loader- ship in the world of aviation.

More than half of the new aircraft are jet-powered and almost a third are commercial machines designed to edge out the almost complete monopoly American transports now hold.

The Society of British Air-"; craft Constructors, whose an-

nual autumn show is already KOREA ELECTION

past

the

planning stage,

claimed a clear lead for Bri- tain in one phase of aviation: civil jet fights.

This claim was based largely on the top-notch performance of the Deliavilland Comet, a four- jet airliner which has laid down half a dozen new records for International travel in the last few months.

Setting new morks in nearly every flight it made from England, the Comet has become the "white hope" of British aviation, Industrial lenders as well as the British man in the street have

hailed it as the world's outstand- ing transport.

Foreign technicians-including representatives of the American airlines-have watched the Comel. Its fuel consumption is still a serious problem, and must be whipped before it is ready for

A. WHITE & CO. airline use, several have said.

CYNICAL FRAUD

Washington, July 19. The State Department today branded as a cynical and patent fraud North Korea's announces plans to hold elections in South Korca on July 25.

The Department Press Officer, Lincoln White, sald the Commu- nist announcement that the vot- ing would be a "show of hands" Koreans means that the South will have a gun at their backs and two votes would be counted for each individual,

Mr. White read a United Press

despatch that told of Communist election plans voiced by the North Korean radio,

The Communists said, "Pro- Japanese, pro-Americans and the Insane will be barred from the voting"

Mr. White sald, "The mocking proposal is so preposterous that It might be simpler for the North Koreans merely to take a list of people in arcas they control and put a check mark by the names. of those they regard as being eligible to vote.

This would save the populace the trouble of standing in a pubile place with a gun at their backs in the position of upraised hands so they could record two votes rather than one."-United Press.

Their commanding officer, who refused to give his name because "this is the girls' story," said that without the nurses' help there would be many more American dead from battle wounds.

The hospital, set up in a formger Korean school house, treats serious battle injuries before the wounded are flown to base hos- pitals in Japan. The place oper- ates largely out of medical chests which can be packed and moved within a matter of minutes.
