TOKYO, March 15. (UP I The 8th Army occupied Seoul ii. force today and swept north toward the 38th parallel ail across the Korean peninsula in search of fleeing Communist armies.

U S. Marines expected to occupy abandoned Hongrhon former headquarters of the Chinese G6ih Army, sometime to-
day.
Other allied columns pounded north through the eastern mountains without opposition aftei capturing the road junction towns of Changdong. Soksn and Hajinbu, all about 25 mil. .- south of the parallel. Nowhere along the front from Ihe west coast to the east did the advancing allies run into more than a few scattered enemy rear guards. In most sectors, they found no Communist troops at all -only abandoned weapon ind defenses. The U S. Marines alone captured enough “enemy equipment to outfit a regiment” south of Hongch- n. a front dispatch said. Some 265 prisoners were rounded up. the largest number in recent weeks. There was some speculation tha tthe Communists might attempt a stand at Chunchon and possibly north of Seoul. Six thousand North Koreans wen reported digging in along a three-mile Uretch of the SeoulKaesong road nine to 12 miles nofthwi st oT Seoul. But other sources believed the Chinese and Korea Reds wouicl not slop running until all had crossed the 38 parallel. There seemed to be a feeling among men in tin lield that UN' forces would not go beyond th > parallel. But there was no confirmation either of this or of vague rumors that some sort if “deal” might be in the making.
