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.

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.

...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-

Bigart said this nation no longer
