The Americans told President Syngman Rhee yesterday that they would shoot if necessary to protect Communist truce inspectors from anti- Communist demonstrators.
The firm American position was outlined to the South Korean President by the United States Far East Commander, General Lyman L. Lemnit- zer, according to information given to the United Press by highly-competent sources.

ATOMIC CLOCK
London, Aug. 12, Britain has invented an atomic clock. This was revealed tonight by Dr L. Essen in a letter to the scientific magazine Nature. Essen said he and his colleague at the British National Laboratory of atomic physics, Mr. J. V. L. Parry, had built this delicate mechanism which would be more reliable than the best astronomic clocks.
!
Essen said in his letter that the atomic clock would record time but would have no resemblance with ordinary clocks. It would have an error rate calculated at only one ten-thousandth of a second per day. Ordinary astronomic clocks calculate for an error of several seconds per year.
Each said that this invarition could be used to verify the irre gularities in the rotation of the carth, and would be of use to astronomers and radio-experts
He paid homage in his letter to Nature to the work done by United States scientists, who he said mode the British atomic clock construction possibl France-PresŠE,
