Loudspeakers Promise Reds Reinforcements
Tokyo (U.P.)—Chinese Communist commanders resorted to battlefield loudspeakers to encourage their hard-pressed forces on the east-central Korean front today, promising them reinforcements if they would hold their lines.
But United Nations forces overran the Reds' mountaintop positions and recaptured Inje, an important highway town five miles north of the 38th parallel, without firing a shot.
Elsewhere along the 100-mile Korean front there was an ominous stiffening of enemy resistance.
The 90 tons of bombs dumped on the two fields included the 1,000th ton of high explosives dropped on North Korean airstrips since the Chinese spring offensive began April 22.
B-29 Superfortresses, meantime, carried the allied bombardment of Communist airfields through its seventh straight day with attacks on air bases at Sariwan and Sinmak in west-central Korea.
Aerial reconnaissance and intelligence reports indicated the Communists may aim the second blow of their offensive at the central front. The Chinese Reds broke through there for gains of 30 to 40 miles in their first assault two weeks ago.
Political Uproar In Korea
Pusan, Korea (U.P)—The South Korean National Assembly refused today to accept the resignation of Vice-President Lee Si Yung and there was angry talk of impeaching President Syngman Rhee. Rhee himself dismissed the Assembly's uphoar as a demonstration to discourage him from running for reelection next year. Lee had submitted it yesterday with the announcement that he no longer could serve under Rhee. He accused the administration of dictatorial methods and said the president was leading the country "from bad to worse."
New York (U.P.)-James J. Moran, friend and political protege of former Mayor William O'Dwyer, was sentenced today to five years in prison and fined $2,000 for perjury. It was the maximum sentence possible.
Moran Gets Full Sentence
Helied when he told the Ketauver committee in March that Brooklyn "Policy King" Louis Weber visited him no more than a half dozen times when Moran was first deputy fire commissioner and the man closest to O'Dwyer while the latter was mayor.
Red Casualties Figured
Washington (U.P.)—The Army said today that Chinese Communist and North Korean forces have suffered 893,662 casualties through April 30. By comparison, United Nations forces have suffered roughly 248-. 055 casualties through May 4 including 64,035 Americans, some 180,000 South Koreans, and 4,000 troops of other United Nations.

'Sister-Brother' Living Is Banned
Topeka (U.P.)—The Kansas Supreme Court overruled a lower court's order Thursday which required a divorced couple to live together "as brother and sister" in order to effect a reconciliation.
Phyllis Campbell and Telbert Campbell of Wichita were granted the divorce April 27. They had been married 27 years.
Judge Ross McCormick then ordered Mrs. Campbell to prepare a room for her divorced husband in the couple's home and "perform for him all the duties of a sister toward a brother." The judge explained he hoped to bring the couple together again.
Both parties appealed the order.

Glamorous Rise Stevens Charms KU With Her Songs
Bv LOU FRY
The large audience in Hoch auditorium Thursday night was completely charmed by the singing and personality of glamorous Rise Stevens. Metropolitan opera star.
Miss Stevens' excellent enunciation, the dramatic quality of her singing, and her very charming personality made the concert a high point of Music week.
Although all her numbers were well sung, Benjamin Britten's arrangement of the Welsh folk song "The Ash Grove" was particularly beautiful.
Both the operatic arias, Mozart's "Voi che sapete," and "It est doux, il est bon" from Massenet's Herodiade showed the professional quality of the Met star's dramatic portravals.
In the group of German works Miss Stevens's great ability in changing pace and mood was exhibited, the two selections by Wolf being particularly well done. The "Declaration of Independence" (Celius Dougherty), was an audience favorite. It is a cleverly written song with convenient breaks for audience laughter at the childish phrases of a very independent vounster.
The program was climaxed by the universally popular excerpts from "Carmen" for which Miss Stevens'
has justly received fame. Her personification of the brazen cigaret girl was excellent.
Miss Stevens sang two encores, the modern "Look, Edwin" and the old favorite "I'm falling in Love with Someone" by Victor Herbert.
Brooks Smith, besides capably serving as the star's accompanist, played three piano selections and when called back, played for his encore the E Minor Nocturne (Chopin).
At the end of the concert Miss Stevens came back on stage and apologized for not being able to sign any autographs because she had to hurry to catch a plane, but added that she would be happy to sign autographs if those who wanted them would write to her in care of the Metropolitan Opera in New York.
