China Red Offer Bared in a Push for Korea Peace
Chinese officials reportedly offered to halt the Red offensive at the 38th parallel with no formal reply, while emphasizing that no ironclad guarantees were given. Western and Indian sources noted uncertainties about parallel-based concessions and about U N forces respecting the line. Dispatches from Tokyo claimed Chinese troops reached Sohung, 30 miles north of the parallel, as Truman and Acheson weighed the price of any Korean ceasefire. British leaders urged including Formosan questions and U N admission in broader talks, aligning with wider European and Asian sympathies.
