Washington. Oct. 7 — An Army
spokesman said today there is no -
concrete plan now to establish u i
"MacArthur Line” astride the nar-
row: neck of North Korea.
His statement was in response
to a newsman’s inquiry concern-
ing published reports that such a
line might be established on a
rough arc from Anju on the West
Coast to Hungman on the East,
and midway between the North-
ern and Southern borders.
Such a line would put United
Nations forces in control of most |
of the populous industrial and ;
rice-producing area of Korea.

would also have the disadvantage
of leaving intact any escaping,
enemy force.
The solution may be the halting
of American and other foreign
troops at a line in mid-North Ko-!
rea, while South Koreans con-
tinue northward.
