Sixteen we-ra injured in the collision here last night of a Union Pacifia Railroad switch engine and eastbound passenger train.

The Maine voting, always first in the nation, was the initial statewide election since the war broke out in Korea. Democrats, despite their traditional decided minority, put up an unusually stiff campaign. But the voters returned to office Republican Governor Frederick G. Payne and three GOP house members.

Reps. Robert Hale, Charles P. Nelson and Frank Fellows. It was the estate's eighth straight Republican sweep. G.

O. P. SHOWS GAIN The GOP, in fact, polled a higher percentage of votes than it did in 1946, also a non-presidential year. Incomplete figures gave Payne about 67 per cent of the votes, compared with 61 per cent in 1946. Attracting most interest in today's primary voting was New Hampshire.

Republican Senator Charles W. Tobey was opposed for nomination for a third term by Wesley Powell, an attorney and former administrative assistant to Tobey's colleague, GOP Senator Styles Bridges. Tobey is one of the self-styled Republican Liberals in the senate. Powell argued that his position amounted to "Trumanism." Tobey pointed to his experience in Washington. The race was regarded as close.

Emmet J. Kelly, national committeeman, was unopposed for the Democratic nomination. COLORADO VOTING Tobey was one of only two senators who faced opposition in today's primaries. The other is Senator Carl Hayden, Arizona Democrat, who had" two opponents for his party's nomination. Without opposition in their states were Senators Eugene D.

Millikin George D. Aiken and Warren G. Magnuson No senatorial seats were at stake in Michigan and Minnesota, which had gubernatorial and house races. Hayden, seeking a fifth term, was opposed for the Democratic nomination by Cecil H. Miller, Phoenix cattleman, and Robert E.

Miller. Phoenix druegist and a 194S backer of Henry A. Wallace. Bruce Brockett, Rimrock rancher, had no opposition for the GOP nomination. In Colorado, Rep.

John A. Carroll was assured the Democratic nominatin to oppose Millikin in November. The Republican contest for governor attracted most interest. Former Gov. Ralph L.

Carr contested It with Ray H. Brannaman, NO HIDDEN WEAPONS: Under suspicion of guerrilla activities, this Korean was stripped before interrogation outside Changnyong, on the central Korean front. Ready to jab the suspect in a tender spot is Sgt. Arthur C. Hansen, East Swanzey, N.

of the Second division. (AP Wirephoto). L'J-u'v LI llSV ocicl TOKYO, Sept. 12. American First cavalrymen stormed uphill through a withering day-long barrage of lied Korean gunfire and at duk won a peak commanding a main nosi-hem approach to Taeu.

The troopers in battalion strength I.ikio won Kill 314. eight miles north of Taegu, at heavy cost. They knew their job was to check what was officially called "the main threat" to Taegu, northwest anchor of the Allied line. The hill had been held by an outpost of some 40,000 Red Koreans, masked for a fresh assault upon the South Korean provisional capital. Another outpost remained on a nearby peak.

Allied bi guns and warplanes hurled a curtain cf steel at the Keds before the assault. Then the troopers hit the slopes. They fought two-thirds of the distance in five bitter hours. But the Reds, throwing a barrage of artillery, mortar and machmegun fire from the two peaks, stalled the drive at that point throughout most of Tuesday afternoon. Their shells set fire to part of Chileok town, five miles north of Taegu.

The troopers finally stormed the summit at nightfall and took it. Correspondent Jack MacBeth, who was pinned behind a brick wall by Red gunfire for more than one hour, said capture of Hill 314 gave the Allies a strong right anchor commanding the Taegu-Tabu road. Lt. Gen. Walton H.

Walker, speaking of the warfront generally, said Tuesday night "the worst is over." The commander of Allied ground forces and the U. S. 8Lh Army in Korea said, however, in a brief statement that the enemy tUil held the initiative and was "capable of hit-tir. us re on 125-mile perimeter." He concluded; "I am now sure we can top him." Inland from the eat cca port of Fohar.fi, a secret allied task force struck swiftly westward seeking to trap 3.000 Communist troops Li Kked from retreat northward by a South Korean column. INFLICT HEAVT CASUALTIES The Reds were strung a corridor between high peaks.

The task force, led by a famous West Point football star whose name cannot be disclosed now for security reasons, fought to close the corridor's southern gate. It inflicted heavy casualties on two Red battalions dug in on bare and rocky slopes. United Nations forces, striking norih in the same general sector, cut the Angang-Pohang road. This drive increased the already difficult supply and communication problems of Korean Reds. AP Correspondent Bern Price, with the South Korean first corps, reported observation pilots had spotted "hundreds" of Reds fleeing toward Angang.

Allied planes blasted the fleeing Reds. A U. S. pilot called the air strikes "a field day." An 8th Army spokesman said a partital withdrawal was indicated. To the west, the South Korean Einhth division drove, within eight miles of Angang on the Yongchon-Angang road.

Angang, nine miles southwest of Pohang. was seized by the Reds last week in their massive breakfhrouch. SOUTH KOREANS GALV The spokesman f-aid the South Korean Eighth drove ahead nearly 10 miles in two days. He described the situation along this front as "tremendously improved." The three-pronged drive on the Northwest front menaced two large pockets of Red troops deep within allied lines. The South Korean Eighth Division seized huge quantities of Red supplies.

On the TJ. S. Second Division front west of Changnyong. a U. S.

company of a "flushing expedition" killed 72 Reds. Allied warplanes. striking five miles west of the Naktong river, destroyed or damaged four of 11 Red tanks. To the north near Hyonpung, the Reds continued to throw troops into their bridgehead 15 miles southwest of Taegu. B-23 bombers roared out Tuesday in a heavy strike at the Kan town arsenal, 10 miles north of Pyongyang.

Red Korean capital. Bombs kicked off a series of explosions within the arsenal, part of which is underground. Sheets of flame rolled along the ground. Smoke columns shot 12,000 feet hisrh. Fichter-bombers struck along the battiefront in a continuation of the Monday air blows when a record of 6S3 sorties was flown.

12. The senate today batted down three consecutive proposals to give the government power to throw Communists into concentration camps in time of war, insurrection or invasion. One vote which beat down a move to add a tough concentration camp provision to the McCarran anti-subversives hill may be reconsidered later in the day. A motion for reconsideration was filed by Senator Tydinjts who did not vote on the amendment. The amendment was offered by senate Democratic Leader Lucas of Illinois and was rejected 37 to 35.

He previously had lost on a 45 to 29 vot a move to substitute an internment camp provision for the Communist registration plan of the McCarran bill. The third setback for administration forces seeking to change the McCarran measure came when a 50 to 23 roll call vote scuttled a Red interment substitute offered by Senator Kilgore (D-WYa.) for the bill sponsored by Chairman McCarran ot the Senate Judiciary committee.

Koss, who announced rJarly's action, declined again to comment on a report bv a hishly placed presidential adviser that Secretary of Defense Johnson is on ins way out of the cabinet. Asked whether Johns planning to resien, Koss said that he was "not a mind reader." Pressed further, Ross said I have no information to give you on that point." Johnson has been under fire in eonpress and elsewhere in connection with the Korean war situation. His critics have contended he did not have the defense establishment in proper shape. I 'resident Truman has stood by the secretary consistently, however. Additional Clues Found in Dounlas ogean Cloying Investigating officers reported "ad ditional clues in the brutal slaving of Elmer Shay, 56-year-old hantii- man.

Eevin took- a sirr.r line wn! reporters who met him on board, sayin? that "the defence cf Europe is vital to the peace cf tha world" and that the whole problem must be talked out hee. OTIII POINTS The American informant ihrntion-ed several other specific matters sure to come up for discussion in the three days of bi? three talks. They are: 1.

Turkey's Interest In rainir? membership in the North Atlantic treaty. There are strong inciiratmns that, for many reasons, includir.z Turkey's remoteness from the IVortn Atlantic, the mmi'ters will not act favorably on Turkish membership. 2. Revision of the German occupation statute with a view to endmi the present state of war betxetri the Western powers and the We: German Republic. 3.

United Nations problems coming up in the General Assembly meeting next week.

They are worried about deficit spending. Communists controlling portions of the government, and the trend toward Socialism. "Before the Korean war began these worries had first place in the miiKft of the people. Now we must spend to properly equip our boys in Korea. "I think it is deplorable that they had to be sent so poorly prepared particularly in light of a report in Washington, D.

newspaper on May 10, 1950, that North Koreans were massing on the 33th parallel." Mr. Harrison's only campaign promise was that he would help keep America American. "I think those who advocate the overthrow of government should be punished for, treason," he declared. Frank A. Barrett in the other major speech of the program outlined Republican policy for the forthcoming election and administration if they win.

Keystone in that policy is economy in the operation of state government in order to place no additional tax burden on the men and women of Wyoming. Said Mr. Barrett. "I don't think for one minute we're going to have an easy time winning the November election. I think we're going to have a hard fight.

HARNSBERGER APPOLVTED Harry S. Harnsberger, Lander, was appointed election campaign finance chairman by Mr. Kerr in a program which will seek support from Wyoming Republicans. Lawyer, rancher, and candidate for congress, William Henry Harrison in one of the major speeches of the Republican committee's biennial election meeting declared: ments during the debate on charges against the U. S.

both on the plane charges and on a complaint to be taken up later that the U. S. is guilty of aggression against China because of its Formosa policy and action. There was a sense of drama after France announced that it would vote to let the Communist emissaries come here during debates on the plane incidents. Russia, Norway, India, Yueoslavia and Britain were already in the iine-up in favor of admitting a spokesman.

All have recognized the mad Tze-Tung resrime. France hat not. The United States, China and Cuba ail had announced they would oppose seating the Communists. Ecuador said it abstain. Only Egypt remained silent.

A threatened Soviet veto failed to materialize. Soviet Delegate Jacob A. Malik had vigorously opposed any reference to the Korean conflict in the report and had argued it was subject to the veto, but when the ballot came he abstained. The vote was 10 to 0. The action was taken at a closed door meeting of the council, the 500th since the 11-nation bodv first met in London in January, 1946.

A public meeting was scheduled for this afternoon to hear the United States argue that the council should set up quickly an India-Sweden commission to investigate charges U. S. planes have strafed Red China territory north of the Korean border. Yesterday's vote was the closest Malik has come to winning, after almost a year, some kind of victory for the Chinese Communists. He had demanded that Red Chinese be permitted to sit voteless in the council and make state Max.
