KOREAN REVOLT
GOVERNMENT RETAKES 1 PORT OF YOSU
(Rec. 9 p.m.) SEOUL, October 28. The capture ef the port of Yosu today by the Korean Government forces appears to have broken the back of the Communist-led revolt. Bands of rebels are still resisting In the hills, but the loss of Yosu has robbed them of their rallying point. It was at Yosu that an army mutiny touched off the revolt on October 20.
Air observers reported that a quarter of Yosu, which has a population of 70,000, appeared to be burnt.
