ALLIES MOVE UP WITHIN
RANGE RED BASE CHORWON
While the great debate raged at
home, United Nations forces con
tinued to push forward on the
west central Korean front. Allied
tanks moved up within range of
the big Communist base of Chor
won and laid seige to one of the
main Allied objectives.
The tanks took up vantage
points only three miles from the
city. It is the anchor point for!
an estimated 600,000 Red troops
being massed in this area for a
long-expected spring offensive.
Elsewhere along the 140-mile
front the Communists continued
to pull back slightly, and Allied
troops followed up the Red with
drawals.
1 In Washington, observers said;
■the Truman administration knew
it was in for a fight to the finish
over the best strategy for victory
in the Far East.
The Administration’s fear is that
bombing of Manchurian bases
might bring Soviet Russia into
the war, a risk it is not prepared
to take just now. MacArthur im
plied it was a gamble worth
taking. Truman, in a speech last
Saturday, said he had previously
been advised on “good authority”
—presumbly MacArthur—that the
/
Chinese Reds would never enter
the war. They did.
