Lull Marks Fighting Awaiting Truce Order The strange inactivity along the central front, where American patrols have struck deep into communist lines, puzzles the world capitals. Is it another Chinese build-up? Observers wonder, as united nations forces continue control of Wonju and other vital frontline towns. While United Nations diplomats seek a solution for a cease fire order in Korea. A stale mate develops along a narrowing front below the 38th parallel. The white suited ground troops plunge back through the snow to Wong Ju and make their best gains since the fall of Seoul. The repeated patrol trust under General Clark Ruthner keeps the enemy off balance. Refuges captured and questioned by military intelligence that the Chinese and North Korean Reds have withdrawn several miles north of Wong Ju. Establishing shot - Foothills of North Korea.
