RHEE MAY FLY TO WASHINGTON Homage With
Personal Appeal To The President? No Signs Of Any Weakening On Part Of South Korea
Washington, June 9.
There was not the slightest indication at the South Korean Embassy here today of any weakening of the determination of President Syngman Rhee's Government and armed forces to carry on the fighting against the Communists in Korea regardless of any truce signed by the United Nations Command.
There were unconfirmed reports that President Rhee might fly to the United States to make a last-minute appeal to President Eisenhower not to sign the Korean truce agreement.
