2 Th N.ws-R.view, Roi.burg, Or.. Thurs., Jon. 18, 19S1 Stay-And-Fight Declaration Of Gen. Collins Places New Color On Situation In Korea By DEW1TT MacKENZJK AP Foreign Affairs Analyst The UN defense of Korea has taken on different complexion with the declaration by General J. Lawton Col. litis, U. S. army chief of etaff, that America "will cer tainly stay and fight." This statement was sriven added punch by the simul taneous launching of a U.N. attack south of Seou v itn good initial results. A.P. war coriospondent Stai Swinton reported frontline morale soared as w-eary fightmg men realized at least locally - that the allies had seized the initiative in that sector. These developments came at a i ited with having designs on other time when there was a widespread Asiatic nations which she wishes impressing that things weren 1 1 to bring into tne Lommunist iuiu. UIIC Ul Micac l ileum ,i,uu.,-, and Chinese troops are reported to be massed on the frontier of that country, which already is torn with Red revolution. But perhaps the most important aspect of the Korean defense lies in the fact that is is being done in support of the ideals of the United Nations. f Certainly there is grave doubt whether the peace organization could survive if, having drawn the sword In defense, it was forced to abandon Korea to the reds. - .v.L ...I, Iniliino Inn cood for the U. IN. operations in Korea. With the Chi nese pouring an avak.iche of men down against the quarter million U. N. troops there was much spec ulation whether the latter would be driven into the sea by sheer force of numbers. As a matter of fact, I don't be lieve we should dismiss that pos sibility yet. However, we have the assurance of the U. N. military authorities that a total Chinese-Red , Korean victory not only isn't in evitable but that we may inflict uch losses on Hie enemy that he will have to back down. Fo. Would Pay Heavily And how could this be brought about? Well, it might be achieved if the U.N. army should retreat to the southern tip of the peninsula and there establish a defensive barrier about the important port of Pusan. There would be no way in which the Reds could flank such a line. A Communist frontal assault with massed troops would come up against firepower from land, air and sea which would be devastat ing. Whether it would be a trap fatal to the Red offensive naturally remains to he demonstrated. How ever, we certainly shouldn't dis miss the certainty of the U. N. army giving a good account of it self. But why shouldn't we pull out of Korea altogether immediately? President Truman has said the de fense of Korea is a symbol of the whole struggle against Communist aggression. Moreover, the very life of the United Nations may be bound up in this struggle. Japan Would Be Perilad And there are other angles to be considered. The Korean penin sula, in the hands of hostile forces, would be a great threat to Japan. Back at the lime when Korea was controlled by the Russians, Nippon used to complain that it was a "dagger pointed at her heart." Wars were fought for control of this strategic position. Furthermore, the defense of Ko rea is an object lesson which is likely to remind Red China that she can't sta'je invasions of other countries with impunity. The point is, of course, that Peiping is cred- Writer Accuses Gen. MacArthur Of Korean Blunder NEW YORK UP) War cor respondent Homer Bigart, writing in this week s Look magazine, ex pressed the opinion that General Douglas MacArthur was respon sible for "unsound deployment of the United Nations forces and a momentous blunder" in Korea. Bigart said this nation no longer can afford to "string along" with MacArthur. Bigart, a New York Herald Tri bune writer, rciurned to the United States last week after working in Korea and Tokyo since last July 1. He wrote in the Look article that MacArthur must be criticized upon one decision, which "helped insure tne success ol the enemy s strategy." that decision i:r ) f - 'i 'If.

Reapportioning Bill Prepared For Legislature was the order launching the last ill-fated U.N. offensive. Bigart wrote: it is a great tragedy that a man who served his country so nobly should he hounded and dis paraged in the final hours of his career. "But that is one of the occupa tional hazards of being a general. MacArthur grossly miscalculated the intentions, strength and capa bilities of the forces against him." mgart. now 43. won a I'u itzer prize in 1946 for International re porting.
