ro).rni luimuu JIjlAJ Vol. 51 No. 56 ASIied Hf Attlee Foresees UN Withdrawal Prime Minister Clement Attlee sent word to his cabinet Tues day that allied forces may be compelled to make a mass evac uation of Korea, an authoritative source in London said. Accord ing to this source Attlee was "shocked" at the appraisal of the Korean situation given by Gen. Omar Bradley, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff. The American troops trapped in northeast Korea have arrived at points from which evacuation can be made if necessary, Gen. Bradley told senators in Wash ington Tuesday. Senators first relaying Brad ley's report spoke in terms which give the impression that he had been referring to all al lied forces. The general was referring only to the forces trapped in north east Korea, the Pentagon said. Members at the senate foreign relations committee meeting said that Bradley held out the possi bility that the pressure of the Chinese communist forces may become so heavy that with drawal of United Nations forces may be necessary eventually. Wave of Chinese Troops Arrives Thousands of Chinese commu nist reinforcements ooured into northeast Korea Tuesday to within 17 miles of Hamhung, a port on the escape route for 15,000 to 20,000 U.S. forces trapped near the Chosin reser voir. Desperate fighting marines are trying to keep a tiny airstrip at Hagaru, one mile south of the reservoir, until evacuation of their wounded before making their own attempt at escape. Other waves of Chinese oc cupied burning Pyongyang to the west and started hacking at the escape route of the Eighth armv between Pyongyang and Seoul. Americans to the south of the Ch&sin reservoir were hit by six Chinese divisions for the sixth straight day. Artillery fire was audible from the heavy attack opened by other red forces at dusk Tuesday against the VJS. Third division, 17 miles 'west of Hamborrg. South Koreans Ask for Guns "One million youths are ready for immediate participation in combat. We are all rushing toward the anti-communist war. Complete armament is most ur gently needed," said one resolu tion as thousands of Koreans gathered in the stadium at Seoul Tuesday asking lor guns to fight the Chinese reds.

NEBRASKA Out-of-State Licenses Void In Nebraska Student Drivers Among Violators University students are ap pearing frequently in the Lin coln municipal police court . . . to answer for traffic violations. One of the most common of fenses is driving without a Ne braska license. If the students are native Ne braskans, they : have probably neglected to get or renew one. But the out-of-state students, feeling secure with home state licenses in their pockets, are paying $4.60 apiece to find that they must have a Nebraska li cense. The law states that any li cense holder from another state, who resides in Nebraska for over 30 days, must secure a li cense here. These can be secured at the County Courthouse on Tuesdays and Fridays. The courthouse is located between J and K streets on 10th street. Applicants are given tests for physical fitness to drive, knowl edge of state and city traffic rules, and performance at the wheel. Each applicant must pro vide his owrt car, to be used in hp driving test before licenses j are granted. j xhese facts are apparently not known to manv students, for. ac- cording to poijce officials, the court finds tnat one or more University students appear in court eich day for violating traf fic or license rules. "Whether you've been here before or not," warns Munic ipal Judge Edward C. Fisher, "you are held to the observance of Nebraska laws and city or dinances."
