Not Uneasy About Korea General MacArthur Thinks It Is Too Late To Give Effective Aid To H. Korea
TOKIO. Nov. 5 (Ree. 8 pm).—“l am not uneasy about Korea. Beaten armies often make a hist, desperate stand,” General MaeArlhur told the “Daily Mail’s” correspondent. General MaeArthur said it was probable the North Koreans were now using a certain number of fresh troops, and these had achieved some local success.
Throughout the campaign, he said, reinforcements for the North Korean army had b?en infiltrating from the north, but he doubted that more wore arriving than the earlier stages. General MacArthur said: “They are
I more effectual now simply because they are concentrated in a small space." General MacArthur added: “The situation would become serious if a foreign Government were to intervene officially with all its strength, but I don’t believe that will happen. The opportunity to give effective aid to North Korea was at the outset of the war."
