Southerners in Korea debated as fighting continues
The piece weighs on whether South Korean forces have halted fighting or still defend positions as American ground troops brace for a hard, bloody campaign. It notes weather as a potential limiter, air cover from Japan and allied seas, and long range bombers striking deep into North Korea. The article also mentions the blockade’s aims, rail links to Manchuria, and Chinese Communist reaction. It ends with a casual note about the Elks picnic and dues.
