U S Awaits UN Member Poll On 38th Parallel Crossing
Washington reports await disclosure of Communist war strategy in Korea before deciding if UN forces may cross the 38th Parallel again.

Current orders urge killing enemy troops without crossing the 38th Parallel, while air and sea strikes into North Korea continue. The State Department reaffirmed that MacArthur will be kept informed.
