Observers See Objections to Red Korea Halt Plan
Tokyo observers believed today that a Chinese Communist offer to halt at the 38th Parallel would carry too many objectionable conditions. MacArthur's headquarters grew optimistic the Reds could not drive UN troops from Korea. Some Americans called a reestablishment of the parallel regrettable and contrary to UN unity aims. A Chinese offer surfaced from Lake Success sources. An American source noted production and transport would decide victory in any war, joking about Chinese camels versus American jeeps. Ambassador Muccio said five or six days would reveal Western sector intentions.
