Some curious attempts to make business on new lines have been wit nessed. Thus one notable hotel started after "liberation" to make a specialty of mass weddings you only had to provide the girl and everything was done You could hire the necessary apparel for both bride and bridegroom, for you.

Communists Trade Lives For Space

Eighth Army HQ., Aug. 28. North Koreans traded their lives for acreage on the eastern front yesterday as they made savage frontal assaults on the eastern flank of the "Bloody Ridge," driving ROK units back off an important high ground and determinedly resisting UN counter-attacks.

Farther to the east, other South Korean units captured a hill position northwest of Kansong 'and beat back an enemy regiment with artillery fire.
