Only 380 of the carriers were alive when discovered and 200 of these were mad from hunger. None were believed to have been turned loose or to have escaped from their sealed cages, though fleas from the dead animals might spread disease. The project was reported under the supervision of a Russian woman scientist who fled northward after the landing. The animals were kept in cages in groups of from two to 20.

SPAIN: Ban Is Lifted An estimated 80,000 Chinese Communists are reported ing southward (broken arrows) in an attempt to split U.N. forces. U.N. troops withdrew, although some units were surrounded and cut to pieces. Observers report the Korean situation serious. ELECTION: Republicans Gain Taking the administration by surprise, the Republican party made sweeping gains in the senate and house in one of the most hotly contested national elections in years. As final tabulations were being completed, observers believed that the Democrats would retain 49 senate seats and the Republicans would have 47. To all practical purposes the Republicans will have a working majority in the senate and will control legislative voting with the aid of rebellious southern Democrats. In the house the Republicans made sweeping gains, but not enough for control. Most startling aspect of the election, ie the opinion of most observers, was the defeat of such men as Democrat Sen. Millard E. of Maryland and Sen. Scott Lucas of Illinois. Lucas was tha Democratic mas jority leader in the senate and was a strong supporter of the administration and the state department. In Ohio, Sen. Robert A. Taft won n a resounding victory over the Tyd-Ing- Tyd-Ing- labor-Truma- s Headliners Gov. Thomas E. Dewey added a marathon television show to his deviclist of es.
