THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1951 Red Rail System Crippled War Planes Make Sur- prise Attack on Rolling Stock Caught Out in Open | U. 8. EIGHTH QUARTERS, Ko Oct. 25—P— Allied warplanes pounded the crippled North Korean l.nl system today in one of the most cpncentrated attacks. Wave after wave of fighter bom- bers roared down on Red rolling stock caught out in the open. U.S. Fifth Air Force officers said the Reds were completely surprised and had no time to get their trains into the shelter of tunnels. Nine locomotives and 99 rail- cars were destroyed. Nineteen locomotives and 129 cars were | listed as damaged. Three brief jet battles were re- corded during the day. One Russian- | | made MIG-15 was damaged. There | were no reports of Allied losses. | One F-4-U Corsair crashed and burned in Red territory after being hit by ground fire. The Air Force said there was no chance the pilot survived. A comparative lull fell across the battle fronts as truce talks resumed in Panmunjom. There was some sharp action southeast of Kumsong on the cen- tral front.

Marcelle testified today he still doesn’t know exactly why he was asked to resign as Internal Revenue collector for the First New York District. In the witness chair at a House hearing, he said Commissioner John B. Dunlap, in asking him to quit Tuesday night, told him the request was based on ‘“personal activities outside of the office.” Marcelle added that something was mentioned “about my tax re- turn: and some people I was sup- pesed to have consorted with.” But that is all he knows, he said, about why he was ousted from the $10,000-a-year job. Marcelle said he finally agreed | to resign but only after demanding and obtaining an interview thh‘ Secretary of the Treasury Snyder‘ who backed up Dunlap. ! The ex-collector, dapper in a| double-breasted gray suit and blue | shirt, apologized to a House Ways | and Means subcommittee as he made a day-late appearance. The committee had expected to| hear him yesterday, but Marcellei failed to show up. The group then | issued g subpoena for him. | In New York last night, Mar- celle said there had been a mis-; understanding. The subctmmittee, headpd by Rep. King (D-Calif), is making a general investigation of the gov- ernment’s tax collecting system. Six district collectors have been sus- pended or forced out of office since its inquiry began.
