MACARTHUR'S REPORT TO UNITED NATIONS Koreans being recruited in South East Manchuria? REINFORCEMENT NEEDED

Lake Success, September 2.

General Douglas MacArthur's unified command reported to the United Nations today that there are indications that Koreans are boing re- cruited in South Eastern Manchuria for service with the North Korean Army.

In the third report from the United Nations overall command, General Moc- Arthur again expressed the "gravest concern for the prompt build-up of the now outnumbered ground forces of this command.” Covering operations in the period from August 1 to August 15, the unifi- od command report carried this implication of open aid to the North Koreans from the territory of Communist China.
