Gls Pace Fast Race To Reach Pyongyang, Now Only Hours Away
Headquarters Can't Keep Up With Dash; Communists Cave In or Simply Vanish By EARNEST HOBERECHT, United Press Staff Correspondent TOKYO, Wednesday, Oct. 18—The war in North Korea has fallen apart, a dispatch from 8th Army headquarters said today. Intelligence reports added that the Reds are ‘getting their big shots out of the country.” The Communist army was mortally stricken before the whirlwind onslaughts of the Allies. Where it had not been smashed to bits it crumbled of its own accord or simply vanished. All Allied columns converging on Pyongyang, the Reds’ capital, were rolling along at such a fast pace . they had to be supplied from the air. Headquarters officers were unable to keep the advances posted on maps. The Allies may reach Pyongyang within hours.
