Quizzed on Records.
Yesterday some of the former
Maritime Commission officials had
uncomfortable moments on the
stand when subcommittee Counsel
Francis D. Flanagan produced
commission records of January,
1948. The records showed that
the commission approved alloca-
ton of three tankers to National
Tanker on January %, the day
before National Tanker was eStab-
Flished by the Casey group.
Grenville w. Mellen, me nbey-
LOT the old commission. said he
could not remember details of that
meeting but was sure "a presenta-
ton must have been made about
National Tanker before we acted"
But all three officials. as well
as Francis j. Goertner, former
counsel Of the commission. testi-
fed that approval of the National
Tanker ALLEGATION had been on
the basis Of information indicat-
ing that the Casey group planned
to keep title to the ships and per-
hapS lease them for operation by
some shipping concern. Title to
the three tankers formally went
to United Tanker in October. 1948.
Got Eight Surplus Ships.
Mr.. Casey and his associates
originally got eight surplus tank
erS from the Maritime Commission
in late 1947 and early 1948. They
put five in company Incorporated
in Panama and about two years
later sold them at profits Of $3.2
million on an original investment
Of 500 900, The other three were
involved in the National United
deal that netted $450, 900 Tor MIR.
Casey and two associates.
Vice Admiral william w. Smith,
former Maritime Commission
chairman, told the subcom-
mittee that he seriously questioned
legality of the transaction. He
said any advance indication shat
the Casey group had merely a
Speculative purpose" in buying
the three vessels and then selling
them to the Chinese financed
company would have disqualified
the applicants under the law-as
! understand the law"
Mr.. Mellen was even more en-
phatic. He said he would not have
countenanced the sale II he had
been informed by Mr.. Casey. Mr..
Morris or any other interested
party that the plan called for
quick transfer to United Tanker.

Korean Talks Stalled
On Thorny Problem
OF Prisoner Exchange
BY the Associated Press


MUNSAN, Mar. l4.--Prisoner
exchange talks neared a dead end
today and United Nations truce
negotiators suggested turning the
whole problem back to staff Off
GERS.
Rear Admiral r. E. Libby said
the negotiations are at virtual
standstill and progress will be
at best extremely slow"
The Communists promised to
think it over. They may reply to-
morrow.
Admiral Libby didn't indicate
how he thought staff officers
might crack the apparently hope
less deadlock. Less than three
weeks ago staff officers begged
down on the issue of voluntary
repatriation and handed the prob
lem back to Admiral Libby and
other top-level delegates on the
truce subcommittee.
Dismal Low Reported.
A second group of negotiators
working on armistice supervision
met for almost Az hours, their
longest session yet.
Col. Andrew j. Kinney said the
Communists hit a dizzy new high
in intransigence and illogic." +"

have a clear circle drawn around
the things that might be solved.
Col. Kinney said the Com
munists apparently are ready to
bargain On the scope of a clause
banning naval blockades during
an armistice.
The Reds indicated they would
approve insertion Of Korea" in
the clause. This would allay U. N.
command fears that the armistice
might ban possible naval action
along the China coast or in For
moSan waters.
Problem Tossed Back.
In return, Col. Kinney said, the
Allies would drop demands that
each side report the location of
all major military units and agree
mot to concentrate its armies to
pose a threat to the other side.
Once before the Communists
tentatively agreed to limit the
ban on naval blockades to Korean
waters. But yesterday Red trans
1ators backtracked and tossed the
problem back to the staff officers.
Col. Kinney asked the Reds to
reconsider their stand on ports Of
entry, If they agreed TO permit.
six ports, rather than five, he said
the U. N. would Ie-examine its
stand on other issues.
North Korean Col. Chang Chun
San replied that he was interested
in only three iSsues-naval block
ade, unit location reports and con-
centration Of forces.
Has Gloomy Opinion.
Col. Kinney said he thought
staff officers could solve not only
these three problems, but the issue
Of ports of entry and inspection of
secret equipment.
He told newsmen. however, 81
can't say that there was any evi-
dence in there today to justify the
conclusion that they (the Commu-
nists) were interested in an
armistice now or later"
Col. Kinney'S statement sec
onded the gloomy opinion given
newsmen in New York yesterday
by U. N. Secretary General Trygye
Lie.
Mr.. Lie said he is less optimistic
now over the chances Of agreeing
on a Korean armistice and dur
ing the past months I have asked
myself more and more often the
nuestion: DO the North Koreans
and their Chinese allies equally
desire an armistice?'"
