Agree on Future Conduct of War in Korea
United Nations military and armistice officials met today to agree on future conduct of the Korean War amid Communist stalling at the truce table. Supreme UN Commander Gen. Matthew Ridgway presided, with Gen. James A. Van Fleet and Vice Admiral C. Turner Joy among those present. Decisions remain undisclosed, but the major issue was whether to extend the 30 day truce or reopen offensive operations with a persuasive campaign. Front reporting noted limited ground action with patrol skirmishes and strong enemy probing near Pyongyang, while UN forces claimed 1,988 Communist casualties last week and 1,081 wounded with 58 captured. Fifth Air Force continued close air surveillance on suspected enemy routes.
