Compromise On
Basic Issues
May Bring Truce
SEOUL, Korea, Saturday
(IP) South Korea and the
United States have reached
virtual agreement on a
compromise armistice plan,
reliable sources said today.
President Sygnman Rhee and as
sistant Secretary of State Walter S.
Robertson were, reported to have
completed the main part of their
conversations to remove South Kor
ean noposition to p settlement of
the three-year-old Korean War.
Sourcee dose to the Rhee-Rob
nlertson “little truce” talks aid
neither side got all It wanted and
neither *gave Ironclad guarantees.
They have, howeyer. reached tenta
tive basic? agreement, it was re
ported.
Rhee had held out for a three
month time limit on a posy-armis
tfce political conference to unify
Korea and a mutual security pact
with the United States.
MAY NOT PLEASE REDS
Sources said the agreement ma;
riot satisfy the Communists, who
were reported demanding that the
United Nations use military force
to hold Rhee in line.
But the reports were the moslE
optimistic since three weeks ago
when Rhee upset the all but signed
truce agreement by ordering the
release of 37,000 aa»!-Communist
North Korean priskmers.
It was understood that the Unit
ed States had not given Rhee an
iron-dad guarantee to fight cm In
the event the poet-armistice politi
dkl conference fatted to unify
Korea.
And R was understood that South
Korea had not given a promise
that it would respect a cease-fire
if itjepprored aiftt thc u. N. was
