TeIegrams making it a joyous
Christmas season for hundreds of
American families went out by
last night to nearly all of the
next of kin of the 2,940 men. But
the sorrow deepened for the
many more whose sons were not
listed.
About 70 soldiers on the identi-
fled list named nearest relatives
at overseas addresses. Messages
to these kin are to be sent today.
Prisoners identified at the Pen
tagon included 2,724 soldiers in
addition to the rs with overseas
next of kin, eight Navy men, SO
Marines and rs Airmen.
The approximately $50 remain
ing to be identified presented
special problems. The Pentagon
decided at $50 last night to tao
kle these today At that hour,
the staff working on the list had
been ON duty 261a hours, ever
since the names began pouring in
from Tokyo Tuesday night.
They had been handed to Uni
ted Nations officers several hours
earlier at Panmunjom, Korea, the
site of the truce negotiations.
Even though the checking and
dispatching of kilograms covering
the 2,940 names were finished
last night, the Defense Depart
ment continued working through
the night to get the full list out
to the press and radio
At 2 am. (EST). about 2,400
names had been turned over to
newsmen, with the home town,
address and nearest relative of
each prisoner.

PARIS, Nov. 28.-The United

urging other United Nations mem
bers to send more troops to Korea

The appeal was said to be d.
Irected particularly to countries
which have not sent soldiers

Informed United Nations sources
said details of the reported re-
quest are being handled in Wash
ington. but there is no mistake
that the United States feels there
should be more troops from other
United Nations countries in
Korea.
Expectations here are that some
sort of truce will be reached in
Korea and that the troops will be-
come holding force instead of
an actual battle force. In that
case. the United States wants the
equivalent of occupation forces
from countries which have argued
they lacked troops or their SOL

West Set 10 Discuss
|Disarming in Private,
But Soviet Is Silent
By The Associated Press

PARIS, Nov. 28.-The Western
Big Three today formally accepted
the Asian-Arab plan for private
disarmament talks, but Soviet For
eign Minister Andrei Vishinsky
lodged direct appeals to give the
Russian answer.
With Western acceptance, the
decision on the closed-door dis
cussions lay squarely up to Rus
Sia.
Observers at The United Nations
General Assembly felt Mr.. Vishin.
Sky's refusal to give straight
answer meant the Kremlin has
not made up its mind whether il
wants to get down to brass tacks
about ridding the world of grow
ing arms programs.
Luis Battle-Berres of Uruguay
and Salvador P. Lopez of the
Philippines, speaking at today
session of the Assembly's Political
Committee. both appealed to Mr.
ViShinSky to speak up. They said
it was useless for delegates from
little countries to keep on talking
about disarmament without know
ing RuSSia'S answer.

to know what they were talking
about. said Russia was Just as in

Political Committee a time limit

sions to keep from delaying United
Nations disarmament efforts.
He expressed disappointment
that Mr.. Vishinsky. in his speech
to the committee on Saturday. ap-
parently had not recognized con-
cessions the West made to reach
agreement on disarmament and
apparently was not ready to make
any Soviet concessions.

to ban the atom bomb included
no foolproof system to guaran-
tee that production OF atomic
weapons really had stopped.

said were the Vests answers to

Mrs. Camille DeRose, former
owner of the property into which
the Clarks sought to move on June
8 and again on July 10; George
c. Adams, former attorney for
Mrs. DeRoSe; Charles Edwards,
rental agent for the property; and
Norman Silverman who allegedly
distributed Communist literature
in Cicero, a month after the trial.
Cicero Police Chief Edwin Kon-
ovSky was indicted on a separate
charge of misconduct in public
office.
Retained by the Chicago
branch to defend the Clarks, Mr.
Leighton on June 26 obtained
from Federal Judge John p,
Barnes an injunction restraining
the Cicero police from interfer-
ing with the ClarkS in any fu-
ture efforts to move into the
apartments and further ordering
the police to protect them. After
the riot of July 11-12, he filed a
motion for a contempt citation
against the Cicero police for vio-
lation of this injunction. He also
filed suit for 100000 for dam
ages done to the property and for
indignities suffered by t he Clarks.
White Appeals For Funds
"It is quite obvious" Mr.. White
said, "that the indictment of Mr..
Leighton is designed to stop his
vigorous prosecution of these two
basic legal actions. The gauntlet
has ben thrown down in this case.
Although our financial resources
are severely strained by the costs
of many other battles in which
we're engaged, the NAACP is go
ing to fight this to the limit. We
need help, which we are confident
the public will give us, to beat
back this latest attempt to stop
the Negro and other minorities
from fighting for full equality"

NEW YORK, Sept. 2O-Arous-
ed by the indictment of George
Leighton, NAACP attorney for
the Harvey Clarks in the noto-
rious Cicero riot case, the Nation
al Association for the Advance
ment of Colored Peope moved
speedily to take up the challenge
of the Cook County grand jury
which failed to indict any of the
rioters after three months of in
vestigation.
First, Thurgood Marshall,
NAACP special counsel, flew ip-
mediately to Chicago to consult
with Leighton, w. Robert Ming
and other NAACP lawyers and
officials in preparation of the
legal defense.
Next, Walter White, executive
secretary, alerted NAAMP
branches throughout the country
and appealed to them for moral
and financial support in the fight
to vindicate the indicted NAACP
lawyer.
Threat To Negro's Fight
The indictment was termed by
Mr.. White as zone of the graveSt
threats to the Negros fight for
equal justice which has yet de-
veloped. If George Leighton can
be indicted in Illinois for resort
ing to the courts to protect the
civil rights of Harvey Clark or
any other Negro" the NAACP
executive said, "it is not difficult
to imagine what will happen to
lawyers, Negro or White, in the
South or other parts of the coun-
try, when they appeal to the
courts for redress of racial injus-
ticeS. The action of the Cook
County grand jury is intimidation
of the most vicious sort"
