It was announced today that South Korean raiding parties have struck across the 38th Parallel at both ends of the front:
Allied troops above Seoul advanced cautiously in driving the eastern end along highways leading north. Resistance stiffened along a 20-mile front and progress was slow.

Gen. MacArthur's Offer
opena
THE clearing of Chinese and Korean THE clearing of forces from South Korea ends one phase and another in the Korean conflict. The military victory of the United Nations troops under the command of General MacArthur and his field commander General Ridgway merits full evaluation brilliant achievement against as a substantial odds, and we cannot be- lieve that its significance will be lost on the enemy's high command. It is this which makes General MacArthur's offer to the Communist commander-in- chief of a settlement in the field such Demonstrably a matter of moment.
now effect the Communists cannot
drive the their original boast-to United Nations armies out of Korea, and while it is possible that Mac- Arthur's men could not wholly drive the Chinese "volunteers" out of North Koren, everything points today to the ability of the UN forces being able to wage a war of attrition to a degree where well trained Chinese armles could virtually be wiped. out. The Chinese Communist command cannot be blind to the terrible loss of life' exacted by the UN land, air and sea forces in the course of the, offensive now, for the moment, in suspense, and they have no reason to belleve other - than MacArthur's men can continue.to inflict the same ratio of casualties' north of the 88th Parallel if so called upon. It is well, therefore, for Peking to realise that MacArthur's gesture does not denote weakness: On the contrary his military position is strong and can remain so. But MacArthur, In common with the nations he repre sents, wants to see the end of this san guinary conflict; this hideous nightmare which the Korean people have so long. had to suffer. And ho wants to seo the creation of a unifled Koren, which, again, has been the declared objectivo of the United Nations since the end of the Pacifio: War. Thus, in making his offer to his opposite commander-in-
chief at a time when his forces have cleared the enemy from South Korea, General MacArthur is not considering the 38th Parallel as of military impor- tance. As he says (and it has long been clear) the 88th has no military significance, and MacArthur's gesture is made solely because at this time he believes the Communists. have taken enough punishment and that they can, without losing any military honour, grasp the opportunity, of bringing hos- tilities to an end. But if there is no special military attachment to the fact that the offer has been made with the UN forces still below the, 88th, there could be, especially for Peking, a politi- cal significance. Mao Tse-tung and his colleagues are fully aware that the UN Good Offices Committee is still in exis- tence, and only waiting a sign from Peking that the Chinese Communista are willing to talk terms. Here has been created an admirable situation for the Peking regime to stop the fighting and assist in bringing about a peaceful settlement of the Korea prob- jem. It is difficult to, conceive any more propitious set of circumstances-the UN commander-in-chief willing to dis- cuss a cease-fire with his contemporary in the field, and the UN forces still poised south of the 38th Farallel. It is certain that if the North Korean, Com- munists could set indopondently they would embrace General MacArthur's proposition. without further healtation; we believe that if Peking is allowed freedom of decision there will be a favourable response this week. But the prime danger, is that Soviet Russia, continuing to act behind the scenes, will compel the Chinese and Korean Reds to reject this new opportunity for ending hostilities. Russia does not want to soo penco in Korea and she will continue to exert every effort to pre vent it: Future UN action in Korea. must be conditioned by this considera-
