that Chinese Communist troops
had crossed into Korea and we're
fighting U. N. troops.
United States Delegate Ernest

Council meeting was to give the
delegates a chance for private
consultations on the serious" stu
alton. He said the United States
already had been carrying on
private talks with some delegates.
Transmitted by Austin.
Gen. MacArthur's charges were
made in a special report trans
mitted to the council by Chief
United States delegate Warren r.
Austin.
The report was discussed at a
closed meeting of the seven

intelligence officers.
The United Nations forces are
meeting new foe" Gen. Mac
! Arthur said.
Deployed for Action.
1T is apparent to our fighting
forces and our intelligence agen-
cies have confirmed the fact, that
the United Nations are presently
in hostile contact with Chinese
Communist military units de-
ployed for action against the
forces of the united command"
Gen. Macarthur added:
The continued employment Of
Chinese Communist forces in Ko-
rea and the hostile attitude as
sumed by such forces, either in
side or outside Korea, are mat
tiers which it is incumbent upon
me to bring at once to the atten-
ton of the United Nations"
The Security Council was sched-
uled to meet this afternoon to
take up the Palestine question,
but the report will be before the
delegates when they convene.
First Crossing on Oct. 16.
Gen. Macarthur reported Chi
nese troops crossed the border
into Korea as early as October Is.
These were from the 124th Divi-
sion of the 42d Army. About O..
500 troops were involved in this
crossing, the report said.
On October 20, task force of
approximately 5000 men was re-
ported to have crossed and Joined
in the fighting. Gen. Macarthur
said these were from the Chinese
Communist 40th Army.
The report said that by Novem-
Der 4 elements of at least four
Chinese divisions were known to
he operating in Korea. It also
reported that up to last Saturday
IS Chinese soldiers had heen
captured.
Gen. Macarthur told the Sc
curity Council that six to nine
jet fighters, marked with the red
star, appeared over Korea No
Vember l and flew into Manch,uia
after being attacked by United
States F-51s.
A U. N. decision to label the
Red Peiping government agrees
sors and order a full-scale mill
tary effort to drive its troops out
of Korea could conceivably touch
off chain of events that might
lead ultimately to another world
war.
1t is known, however. that the
United States is trying desperately
to avoid spreading the Korean
war.
Might Offer to Sell Power.
Among suggested actions, it was
reported in Washington, is a pos
sible offer to continue the sale of
electric power to Manchuria from
North Korea if Red Chinese troops
go home. This offer would be
coupled with a threat to destroy
the great hydro-electric dam at
Suiho. on the Korean Manchurian
