Edition SATUR DAY, 1, 1951 JUNEAU, ALASKA ALEUTIAN CRASH KILLS 1 (ralers Indicale Kaesong Bombi Plane Drops Mo By the Associated Press MUNSAN, Korea, Sept. 1 — A\} United Nations liaison officer today | told the Reds a plane may have bombed neutral Kaesong this morn- ing, but if so it wasn't a United | Nations aireraft. The Reds said a U.N. plane drop- ped two bombs in the Korean cease- | fire conference city and called on| the U.N. to investigate. A linison officer checked and reported he found two holes in the earth that could have been made by bombs dropped from the air or detonated on the ground. He indicated the Reds staged the 'aueged ‘bombing ~for propaganda | purposes. A few hours lnuzr an unidentified two-engined plane dropped flares over this advance U.N. base. No Explanation Officials could give no immediate | explanation. It was helieved that an investigation was being made to determine if the flares might have been dropped by a UN. plane by accident or mistake, The flares burst over Munsan at 11 p.m. (6 am. PDT). Earlier Saturday the U.N. rejected a Red protest that a United Na- tions warplane dropped. flares over Kaesong Aug. 29. The U.N. Allies said flares were dropped that morn- ing, but that they were dropped by a photographic plane working some 20 to 25 miles north of Kaesong. Air Force Col. Andrew J.
