If cease-fire negotiations break down, the United Nations ground commander, Gen. James A.

Van Fleet, said his troops are ready to "clobber" the Reds. In Tokyo, Gen. Matthew B. Rldg-way, U. supreme commander, said the Reds have been steadily building up and are in a materially better position to attack than they were when truce talks started July 10.

Van Fleet, commander of the Eighth army, commented: "The military feels we would like to have the opportunity to meet the Communists if they attack. It would be a real clobber. "I don't know of a better way to get it over faster. "The enemy is hurting. He Is In bad shape.

He needs peace." Van Fleet's opinion of the ability of the Eighth army to meet a Red onslaught coincided with views expressed by Ridgway, when the top Allied commander told about the Red build-up. 38th Is Out Ridgway said the U.N. position was not inflexible, but that his troops must have a defensible position during a truce approximately along their present battle line. He said the U. won't go back to the 38th parallel, where the Reds want to set up a buffer lone.

At Kaesong, Just before neKotla- tors adjourned until Wednesday, North Korean Lt. Gen. Nam II. top Red envoy, wound up Tuesday's two- hour and 40-mlnute session by announcing the Red demand for a truce on the old political boundary line is unshakable. It was the deirD't ee'e deadlock which generated the argti ment at Kaesong over U.N.

air and navy might. Vice Adm. C. Turner Joy, head of the U.N. delegation, told the Reds that Allied planes and warships "are prosecuting a war behind your front lines which Is not duplicated behind our lines." A U.N.

spokesman said this was a reply to a one-hour and 13-minute attack by General Nam attempting to "discredit the Independent effectiveness of air and naval power which the U.N. command would relinquish in an armistice." In one breath the North Korean said they weren't doing much good and In the next he said the Reds would run U.N. troops out of Korea except for Allied planes and warships. The spokesman, Brig. Gen.

William P. Nuckols, who attended the session, said Nam's speech was sprinkled with such words as "irresponsible," belligerent," "abusive," and "intolerable." Nuckols said Joy, In a one hour and six-minute reply, emphasized air and naval power in an effort to convince the Reds of the reasonableness of the U. N. proposali for a demilitarized zone along approximately the present battle lines. Joy, head of the U.

N. delegation, pointed out that the U. N. would have to relinquish Us air and sea supremacy in the event of an armistice. Therefore, he said, U.

N. ground forces would have to be left in positions that could bo defended The U. N. communique said this "logical military reasoning" was "without tangible results." Negotiators ended a two hour and 40-mlnute session In the sweltering heat of Kaesong still deadlocked on where to create a demilitarized zone.
