Britain and the United States
are reported to have split sharply
over the proposed statement OF
Korean war aims and peace hopes.
It was to have been issued by
President Truman.
While responsible informants
here said today the way was still
open for talks to continue. the
project has been virtually aban-
doned so far as a statement by
Mr.. Truman is concerned.
What now appears more likely
in an early speech by Secretary
Of State Acheson defining the
political problems and purposes
of the Korean conflict.
The difference between Wash
ington and London Is said to have
come over how far to go in trying
to induce the Chinese Communists
to open peace talks now.
Britain is said to favor an appeal
for Chinese participation in peace
talks while the United States In
sisted that many doors are already
open to the Chinese and that the
United Nations countries would
not really advance by showing
what Washington considers to be
political weakness.
The whole affair, rejecting the
considerable differences Of atti-
tude between London and Wash
ington on Far Eastern policy, ID
involved with the widening riff
between Gen. Macarthur and
Washington over the conduct and
broad political strategy Of the
Korean war.
Several weeks ago. as United
Nations forces began approaching
the 38th Parallel, political repre-.
|sentatives of the II countrie.
whose troops are fighting in Kores
began debating the wisdom oi
crossing or not crossing ths
Parallel.
The United States and Britain
after some rather hotly discussed
differences britain originally
opposing any crossing Of The
ParalleD reached compromiss
political-military agreement. II
was to the effect that Gen. Mac
Arthur's troops could cross the
line for tactical reasons but not
for the broad strategic purpose ot

IT, S. and Britain Reported Split
Sharply on Korea Statement

trying to reconquer all North
Korea.
About the time the policy dis
lcussions were coming to q climax
lit was suggested In the 14-nation
council that a public statement
would be desirable for two main
reasons: First, to try to use the
fact that the war had returned
| to the north-south dividing line
in Korea as q device for nudging
Chinese Communists into peace
talks; second. to inform people all
over the world of the aims and
desires for peace of the United
Nations coalition.
Little more than two weeks ago
brief statement was drafted and
repeatedly agreed on. 1t would
have said mainly that the U. NJ
had put down the aggression in
South Korea and that the way
was open to talk peace, with q
cease fire generally on the line Of
the 38th Parallel.
| Dramatic Statement.
Shortly after this statement was
circulated for final clearance and
apparently after Mr.. Truman had
agreed he would make it, Gen.
Macarthur visited the front and
issued his offer of willingness to
meet the Chinese Communist
commander in the field for peace
talks. He also implied that. If the
Chinese did not agree to negotiate,
they could expect crushing at.
tacks on China itself. f
This was, so much more dra-
matte than anything that had
been planned for Mr.. Truman that
the II nations had to decide
whether TO issue their document
at all. They determined to 90
ahead. and it was then the trouble
with Britain arose.
According to diplomatic inform
ants, the British long delayed any
iresponSe to the United States draft
proposal and then let it be known
informally that they believed the
! statement should make q fairly
concrete peace gesture.
\ The United States, however, took
the position the o. N. coalition
would lose rather than gain by
seeming to beg the Chinese Conn
Imunists for peace at a time when
10. N. forces had demonstrated
their superior striking power In
1.-THE field.
| officials said it seemed UNLIKELY
THAT the United States and Brit
Jain would be able to compromise
the issue. IL

Garbage Ordinance
RescindedByCouncil
Storm Of Criticism By Milford Residents Cause
City Fathers To Take Action On Tues
day Night Milford Chronicle Spearheaded
The Attack Against The Nuisance Measure

At the close of a stormy and
highly confusion session of Milford
City Council on Tuesday evening
of this week, one thing appeared to
he certain. Council highly regretful
of a fOolhardy ordinance passed a
few weeks ago, whereby city resi-
dents were required to use certain
size metal containers in which to
place their garbage, and to place
the same on their curbs, rescinded
the highly unpopular measure.
Shortly after the Wont Milford
Smell Wonderful" editorial appear
ed in the last issue of the Milford
Chronicle, the storm of righteous
indignation Oh the part of Milford
citizenry broke and City Council,
to their credit, took cOgnizance of
the outburst and promised remed-
ical action at meeting of City COun-
Gil then coming up. The meeting on
Tuesday evening took care of the
garbage situation, but like so
many of the sessions of the City
Fathers" recently, was marked by
