Ridgway Delays Reply
On Red Bid 10 Reopen
Korean Peace Talks
By the Asseeiaisd Pres.


TOKYO. Sept. 21.-Gen. Mat
thew B. Ridgway withheld his an
swer today to a Communist pro-
posal to resume the Korean truce
talks at KaeSong.
But while the move to resume
armistice talks hung fire, Allied
>armor roared out loudly across the
Korean battlefront.
United Nations tanks and in
fantry thrust into the former
Communist iron triangle buildup
area on the central front.
It was possibly the largest Al
lied armored foray of the nearly
15-month-old war. Red resistance
stiffened as the mighty task force
drove north toward Pyonggang.
Battle of Words Hinted.
The battle of words over peace
efforts was as muted as the Unit
ed Nations limited offensive ac-
ton was loud.
Even Red China's Peiping radio
the Communist sounding board
that pours out tens of thousands
of words each day in anti-United
Nations command propaganda
was notably silent.
There was only dribble of
hashed-over complaints of Kae-
song neutrality violations where
torrents used to flow.
Meanwhile, hope rode high in
Tokyo and at the advance U. N.
command camp near MunSan that
the truce talks would be reopened
despite Gen. Ridgway's silence and
the rising creScendo of action
along the battlefront.
Psychological Delay Seen.
There still was no definite in
dication when the supreme Allied
commander would answer the
message of yesterday from the
Red leaders, North Korean Pre-
mier Kim II Sung and Chinese
Gen. Peng Teh-huai.
The Communist strategists sug-
gested immediate" resumption of
the peace discussions they broke
off 20 days ago on charges of
Allied air and ground violations
OF the restricted zone around Kae-
song.
Gen. Ridgway'S delay may be
deliberate for psychological rea-
sons. He may want to let the
Communists sweat it out a few
days before giving the U. N. COM
mand reply.
The Communists were the ones
who suspended the talks. Now
they have done complete turn
and are ready to talk again de-
spite outstanding disagreements
they previously were not willing
to overlook.
