REDS ACCUSE U.N. OF
BREAKING OFF TALKS
TO EXTEND WAR
TOKYO, (JP)—Communist neg
otiators Saturday accused the
United Nations Command of
breaking off the Korean truce
talks Wednesday “without wait
ing for our side to speak.”
In a note handed to U.N. liai
son officers Saturday at the Ko
rean tent town of Panmunjom,
the Reds insisted the Allies “broke
off the negotiations at a time
when our side put forth a reason
able proposal which is capable of
settling the question of repatria
tion of (war) prisoners.”
That is the last big issue block
ing an armistice.
Allied headquarters here re
leased the contents of the Com
munist note. It was signed by
North Korean Gen. Nam 11, chief
Red negotiator.
The Allies postponed the talks
until the Reds accept one of three
U. N. proposals for exchanging
war prisoners or offer a construc
tive plan of their own.
The Reds called the move a
“premeditated action taken by
your side in an attempt thereby
to bring pressure to bear on the
forthcoming plenary session of
the General Assembly of the Uni
ted Nations so that it may approve
the plot of your side to break up
the negotiations and extend the
war.”
’52 Harvest Expected to be
Second Largest on Record
WASHINGTON, -(JP) — The
Agriculture Department expects
this year’s harvest to be the sec
ond largest on record.
The department Friday revised
its Sept. 1 estimate upward near
ly 2 percent, making it only 3
percent below peak production
in 1948.
It said conditions were better
for most of the major late-grow
ing crops.
Forecasts included: 3,256,550,
000 bushels of corn, 1,298,921,000
bushels of wheat and 345,561,000
bushels of potatoes.
The wheat estimate would top
the government’s goal of 1,165,
000,000 bushels. However, the
corn forecast would lag below its
3,375,000,000 bushel target. The
potato estimate would be short
of the 350-million-bushel mini
mum the government said is
needed to avert another shortage
in the spring.

Northern Tin Company
On Buck Creek Closes
Operations For the Season
George and Bill Ramsad of the
Northern Tin Company, which
has closed down its placer tin
operations north of Nome on Buck
Creek, are in Fairbanks for a few
days before going on to Anchor
age and then Seattle where they
will .join their families.
They reported a “pretty fair”
season with their dragline equip
ment and plan to continue opera
tions again next summer. Enough
ground is already blocked out to
insure several years’ operations
depending on the price of tin. It
is currently $1.21 a pound.
Their operation is small, em
ploying about a dozen men, but
■is entirely privately financed. As
sociated with them are Andrew
Olson, Axel Palmgren and Clif
ford Smith.
The two mining men reported
that there was still about 30 miles
of road to be completed between
Nome and Teller which will aid
in opening up the country for
prospecting and possible develop
ment.
