Only Official Announcement Is Lacking

SEOUL, Korea, (P)-Field dis patches based on Allied officers reports said ground fighting in Korea came to a complete stop today with only the official an- nouncement lacking to proclaim a cease-fire.
 By midafternoon, apparently we'll aware of the gentlemen'S agreement, Chinese soldiers play ed vOlleyball in full view of non- shooting American troops.
 When darkness fell, the Reds abandoned their 18-month black out and the twinkling of com munist bonfireS and the glow of cigarettes marked out the silent 145-mile front.
 Only a few rounds of Red ar tillery, possibly from uninforrned gunnerS, broke the unnatural sil- ence. PatrOlS roamed the quiet front under orders to take no offensive action. And in many cases they made no contact.
 The Eighth Army issued warning statement that said There is as of this date, 28 November, 1851, no cease-fire in Korea"
 This statement was directly counter to the facts on the front facts known to tens of thou sands of soldiers and to scores of war correspondents at the front and at headquarters.
 The facts were that for the time being, unless the communists attack, there is a ground truce along the front that amounts to a cessation of hostilities on the ground.

 Caudle didn't name any of those who he said sought to influence him, nor did the House Ways and Means subcommittee Investigating the nationwide income tax scan- dals ask him to do so.
 Every time someone walked in that door, they wanted some thing" he said. They were men in public life, men who would in- sist that constituents of theirs were innocent.

Bulletin
SEOUL, Korea, (P - Both sides in the Korean war quit the ground fight ing today.

U. s. Eighth Army troops re- ceived an order to stop fighting and they did so immediately.
 AP correspondent Milo Farnetti, on the western front, said he saw the order and that 1t came from US. Eighth Army headquarters.
 The army headquarters denied that it issued the order.
 Farneti quoted a U. s. Third Division officer that Allied ground forces have stopped shooting at the communists flor all practical purposes"
 We are not shooting at them unless they shoot at us" the off cer said. Tt will be a period of Watchful waiting while we see how serious the communists are about our 3O-day cease-fire pro- posal."
 The provisional cease-fire line is to become the cease-fire line only if negotiators reach com plete armistice by Dec. 27.
 The officer said all frontline units have been warned not to relax and that the war is not over
 "Our men in the companies have been told not to expose themselves unnecessarily" the of ficer said. But they have orders to defend themselves against any communist attack"
 The order said the Allies would hold down offensive action on the ground during the 30-day period to "clearly demonstrate the will ingness to reach an agreement while preparing for offensive action if negotiations are unrea- Sonably delayed"
 The order instructed that pres ent main lines 'ibe defended to the maximum" This meant Allies could counterattack to regain any positions lost to the Reds.
 There was nothing to indicate any slackening of jet warfare over northwest Korea. Three Red MIG-15S and a US. F-86 Sabre were knocked out of the sky Wednesday in the second consecu- tive day of jet battles in MIG Alley.
