KOREA - TALKS The discussions at Panmonjom have produced their first obstacle. But it's not critical, and our delegates expect to rJ- 1ronAout.M• The obstacle - those figures on the Communist list of war prisoners. At the meeting last night, Admiral Daniel handed over our list, which included over five thousand names. Then General Lee ng-Cho produced his list. It named only six hundred captives. ~ A l l i e d officials estimate that ~ only about one hundred of th9' are Americans. Admiral Daniel pranptly protested. He pointed out that the nwnber stated on the C0111111nist list ls very small oanpared with the total ■ number held by the Reds. He suggested that the enemy should · ae a wider definition of "sick and wounded." General Lee defended his list. But he promised to check the figures again, and to report on his findings.

We"hold many more w:tl prisoners than the Reds. ~ t h e Reds aw-offering KOREA - TALKS - 2 to send back about five per cent of the men in their prison camps. While we are offering to send back about four per cent of our prisoners. After the meeting, Admiral Dlniel told reporters that he hoped the Reds would agree to increase their list. He pointed out that the definition of " sick and wounded" is aabiguous. "I think the figure could be quite controversial - alMlt what category you put them in," he said. He explained his meaning like this: 'In other words, how sick is a man? Ji;~~ ~ ~ hopes ~ we will get more. ''lhere •s nothing to IA.

General Lee declared that the size of convoys handling prisoners should be increased. Our original plan was that such convoys be limited to ten vehicles. General Lee wants to increase the number, because Conununist KOREA - TALKS - I prison camps are scatt red widely in North Korea. for the exchange of prisoners. The Reds accepting our proposal that junior officers be named to start work on the details. So, after the main discussion, the · second team of liaison officers met.

Maintenance of order , ' ,. within the transfer area. Besignation of control officers. I ~ J ~ t he hours for carrying out the operation. The leader of this second team, Colonel Willard Carlock of Galveston, Texas, offered to help the Reds with their side of the trancfer. He told the Reds: "The speed of the entire operation will depend on the adequacy of roads and the reception area." Then he went on: "We can volunteer to assist your side in the construction of your roads. e intend to transport litt e r personnel to your side in ambulances which hold four people. In va li persons will be transported in buses.• ------ Colonel Carlock turned this plan o•er to tbe Reda for further study. le will probably know their. reaction to it after th• fourth meeting - tbe •••tia1 KOREA - WAR . . . fl.ght1ng in K~~~ • • ; ... ~ =ax_ The main Communist attacks being trut'own against the Mar1.nes on Bunker Hill.

He stateD that heA asked his mother and sister to leave Iran just to put Moaaadegh 1 s mind at rest. The sovereign adds that he has never appointed anti-Mossadegh senators. And that the Army, I commanded by the Shah, has never opposed the Premier. A critical poirtin this controversy was the Shah's rec~nt attempt to leave the country. This touched off SHAH - 2 ant1-Mossadegh riots in Teheran. A c cording to Mossadegh, this was part of the plot against his government. But, according to the Shah, he decided to leave on therdvice of three supporters of Mossadegh in the Parliament. Apparently they told the Shah that he could solve Iran's problems by remaining out of the country temporarily. So that's the answer that the young ruler of Iran ~ makes to his obst1natE;,J1'8m1er. The striking thing is that the Shah carefully avoids opposing Mossadegh. lhe ruler rejecting the charges of the Premier, but insisting emphatically that . ~ ts, and always has been, a firm supporter of the Premier. In other words, the Shah 1a not making a bid to unseat Mossadegh, or dj put anyone else in his place. Substitute §IQRII_!llfQ!§ A diapatcb froa London givea detail• about that 1ubway cra ■ b.
