Outside the new wood-and-cement building, school children romp in the crisp winter air. Materials for construction of the 11-classroom building were imported at a cost of $17,600.

New warehouses nearing completion at Kunsan, vital port on Korea's west coast. UNKRA used the concrete floors and pillars of bombed-out warehouses, and erected the structures with $285,000 worth of imported materials and building costs of HW 32 million. The framework of the three, which together provide 70,000 sq. ft. of storage space is completed, and a sheathing of heavy corrugated iron is now being added. UNKRA has turned the buildings over to the ROK Ministry of Home Affairs, which will use them for storing aid goods which flow through the port.
