They said he was not employed by the hospital, but oc casionally posed as a staff mem ber. Every morning, police said, Ru bino drove to the Hospital about 10:30 a. m. in a big new ca* ac companied by his trademark-n black Spitz dog.

A Red liaison officer summoned U.N. liaison officers to Kaesong and notified them at '2 a.m. (11 a. m. Wednesday EST> that the cease-fire talks were “off from now on.” But the Chinese Communist Pei ping radio, broadcasting tonight in the Japanese language, quoted the Communist liaison man as having told the U.N. men: "ALL KINDS OF DEMANDS" “I must inform you that this in cident is one of extremely serious nature. Acting on orders from our chief delegate, I inform you that all meetings will not be held on the 23r>i and that our side reserves the right to present all kinds, of de mands.” . /W, Thus, if the authoritative Peip ing radio was correct, it seemed possible the Communists might ask another meeting at Kaesong Friday and present their “demands.*’ RIDGWAY REPLIES Gen.

IB United Nations forces braced along the 135-mile Korean front today for an expected Communist offensive after killing or wounding 9,000 Reds in > a week-long assault near the center of the line. . riMmaa—udrifiii imltofl ing 1,060 Red planes was expectffT to follow close on the heels of the Communist termination of the deadlocked Korean armistice talks. The Communist radio in Peiping only a few hours before the break had warned that the Allies cah look for “more and heavier blows” if the cease-fire talks failed.

North Korean Premier Kim II Sung last week threatened heavy blows against the Allies in the air I as well as "annihilation” on the ground if the truce talks failed.

Van Fleet, commander of the Bth Army, said last week that his forces are ready for any eventuality. His South Korean forces gave the Reds a foretaste of what is in -tore for them in a ‘limited offensive on the east-central front during the past week.
