Allies Walk Out
Of Truce Talks:
Declare Recess

MUNSAN. Korea P - Allied
truce negotiators today walked out
on the protesting Communists for
the third time in a month.
Mai. Gen. William K. Harrison
Jr. declared a 3-day recess and
marched out of the armiStice tent
at Panmunjom while an angry
Communist delegation loudly de-
manded another meeting Satur
day.
Harrison said North Korean Gen.
Nam II, head of the Communist
truce team. had great difficulty
controlling himself at the walk
out.
A u. ~ spokesman said Nam 5
voice was approaching Strident
scream"
Harrison once got to the tent
flap when Nam called please
come back. We have something
to say"
The U. S. general said he re-
Sumed his seat and consented re-
-~.antly We'll, once more"
But Nam merely repeate his
demand for a session Saturday.
AS soon as Mans statement was
translated, Harrison and the four
other Allied negotiators marched
out of the tent.
Il got the inprec sion that some
of the North Korean attaches were
laughing at Nam, Harrison told
newsmen.
The Allies have declared 3-day
recesSes on two previous occa-
sionS when there appeared to be
no hope of breaking the long dead
lock over how to exchange prison
ers of war, the only major issue
blocking a Korean armiStice. The
U. n. refuses to return prisoners
who do not want TO 60 home. The
Reds demand all Allied-held cap
tiVes.
The Communists insist on daily
meetings, but Harrison said he
refuses to listen to blasts Of Red
propaganda every day. He calls II
"drivel."

Il break my neck trying to work

to be afraid to talk with their
dates about anything intellectual.
They talk down to women, as
though they didn't attribute any
sense TO them at all.
I've been going out with an
art student, and I've been able
to get him to discuss art with me.
But he's the only one. The others

American men were as romatic-

They're Just about equal in that
