News in Brief: Seoul Hails Liberation. Hailing the anniversary of liberation from the Japanese, massed throngs jam city square to applaud Korean and American officials hailing also liberation from communism. Huge crowd outdoors on streets. VS ceremonies, people at podium. Major General John O'Daniel shakes hands with little girl who gave him flowers, pats her on the cheek (she smiles politely and then seems ready to flee).
