Peace Talks in Korea Still Far From End
Cease-fire negotiations in Korea may resume in a day or two but a war end remains distant with August, or even September, as possible. The main dispute centers on a buffer zone and cease-fire line along the 38th parallel, with the Communists insisting on a six mile zone and the Allies resisting losing captured territory and mountain defenses. The talks have stalled after nine meetings, with Nam Il and Gen Ridgway signaling no quick breakthrough and inspections of rear areas key to any armistice.
