Ihave met foul play after threaten-i ing to revaal poUtical scandals of the Klan era in Indiana, a slate official said yesterday. ' HAZLETON SHAFT T By FRANK TREMAINE TOKYO. Sunday.—Gen. DougIa.<i MacArthur today de¬ manded the immediate surrender of North Korean forces, Tvith the implied threat that he would hurl his United Nations army across the 38th parallel to complete the annihilation of the enemy. MacArthur demanded the surrender to "avoid further u.seless shedding of blood" but a high headquarters source t>aid there would not be the "slightest slackening of the llnited Nations war effort" while awaiting a reply. The South Korean army was expected to plunge across the 38th parallel into North Korea today or tomorrow. (A spokesman for the Korean military advi.sory group in Taegu said he received a report from an air observer that the South Koreans had already crossed the parallel. The report was not confirmed eLsewhere and a spokes¬ man for joint operational control which coordinates air information said he had nothing definite.) With one UN division resting on the border and five others driving toward it, MacArthur called on the North Korean commander-lji-ehief, Marshal Choi Yung Kun, to surrender ao the decisions of the United j Nationa "may be carried out with a minimum of further losj of life and destruction of property." MacArthur told the North Korean aggressors their early defeat and complete de.struction of armed forces and -war-making potential "ia now inevitable." MacArthur's message blared out "in whatever part of Korea sit- in the Korean language from i uated" lay down their arms and Toliyo and Seoul radio stations' cease hostilities "under «uch mili- while 3,000,000 leaflets containing tary supervision as T may direct Without Such Life, Property Loss By ROBERT C. .>UIXER , been surrounded and cut off witb a minimum of SEX>UL~Army and Marine commanders who ' J.^'^^'^i^'- 'ftt'j, »^^^^^ liberated Seoul contended on Saturday it could tives-the cutting of North Korean supply and have been taken without the heavy loss in "ves ,'=°'".'"""'^''°"'L^"tes ." »nd ou^ city ...A _»-...«..
