SOUTH KOREA ASKS DRIVE Recently thousands of citizens in Seoul, South Korea, Pre ene RE gathered in front ofthe capitol building in a ceremony celebrating their 34th anniversary of independence. Part! of the sentiment exhibited in this demonstration was in fa- vor of a drive north, into North Korea. | South Korean officials and the demonstrators have | long demanded a drive to the Yalu River as a_ means - of | unifying their country once again. The country was split after World War II, when the Thirty-Eighth Parallel was decided upon as the dividing line between Soviet and U. S. occupation. Although this was not completely statisfactory to the South Koreans, it had to be accepted since they had been a demoted power and occupied by the Japanese for many years. The victors over Japan alone had the power to force the Japanese surrender and supervise the dis- arming of the Japanese Army in Korea. When the North Koreans crossed the Thirty-Eighth Parallel and attacked South Korea in June of 1950, they became the first to abrogate the Thirty-Eighth Paralle) Agreement and now the South Koreans feel there is _lit- le point in their stopping at the Thirty-Eighth Parallel. However, many members of the United Nations feel) that the only purpose of the United Nations forces in Ko- rea is to defend the freedom of South Korea and drive the invading armies out. Some U. N. members will not support any effort to capture North Korea, thus unifying the country once again. Since the population in South Korea is larger than that of North Korea, South Koreans could probably outvote the North Koreans ard dominate -the’ country’s polities. a The United States — the foreign power furnishing most of the men and supplies for the United Nations bat- tle — is torn between desire to refrain from further of- fensive operations in the hope that a truce might be reached, and the urge to develop a joint naval-airborne operation which would annihilate much of the enemy in North Korea, Whether this latter operation can be suc- cessfully completed-is a matter for the military authori- ties to decide, and cannot be predetermined by an editor. In considering the South Korean’s attitude, however, . it! must be kept in mind that the natural. desire of Koreans is for unification of their country. ‘The present war is not a war for unification, but a war to preserve the independ- ence of South Korea. This purpose having been achieved, the United States will have accomy!':hed its mission of checking Soviet aggression. , While the United States would like to see Korea re- united, the lives of American boys should not be commit- ted on a large scale in any undertaking with that as the aim. If expanded military operations will end the war, then most Americans will favor such a policy. However, if a truce is worked out, leaving the dividing line at the Thir- ty-Eighth Parallel, bringing the fighting to a halt, the United States will be justified in accepting it. The main point is to get the fighting ended, with the smallest cost to the country’s manpower, while preserving the inde- »endence of South Korea. The search for the truth is the number one goal of entind SLICE OF HAM gtaTEHOOO ORNE jeonnected with what Malenkovjsonas de gran riquezas, THE WORLD TODAY By JAMES MARLOW | | GUANABACOA WASHINGTON \—Just because | Muy cerca de‘ la Capital, ape- Malenkov didn’t threaten war in/nas un cuarto de hora por la! his funeral oration for Stalin is no/ carretera, esta villa tiene gran-| reason for the West to feel safer.|des atractivos.

From communism’s viewpoint it’s good psychology, for more than one reason, to call Rus- sia the No. 1 peace lover. In the first place, the Stalin- Malenkov problem is different from Hitler’s.
