Then a regiment is committed and it doesn't get anywhere either. Regiments may give way to a division or more and battalion after battalion of artillery is added, but there are no great gains.

Military men call this kind of fight a "battle of attrition." They are avoided whenever possible. The first world war was one long battle of attrition almost from the beginning. The terrible cost of that war left such a ghastly impression on Europe that it changed the whole nature of the second world war. From first to last, generals of both sides tried in every possible way to avoid a duplication of the bloody trench" warfare of 1914-18. They did not always succeed, but the blitzkrieg, the air bombings, the atom bomb itself all were means of evading the price of another attrition war.

The war in Korea started as anything but attrition. The North Koreans with nearly 600 tanks and a Russian-trained army came down on South Korea like the wolf on the fold- The Allied counter-offensive was also the reverse of the attrition fight. The Inchon invasion, and the today, Democratic chairman Frank Hutton branded the Hayworth statement as a "McCai thvistic tactic." "If the Republicans think that Guilford Citizens can be misled by such a display of Mc-Carthyism, they have misjudged the, intelligence of the voters," he said. "The board of elections is a quasi-judicial bodv and neither party has the right to attempt to interfere with it," he asserted. Such a statement is an insult to the intelligence of every Guilford citizen and reflects on the high character of a board if three honorable men which includes Republican Martin Douglas." According to figures available today, the board has 25,269 ned registrations, 1.517 transfers, and Ralph Wyatt It is now apparent after 18 days of knockdown and drag out fighting that the Chinese are refusing to accept their initial defeat at Sniper Ridge.
