Reds Indicate Talks to POWs

2. The Indian command said
the rules for explanations" had

week an Indian spokesman said
the reading of the rules would

before the interviews were to

mist and allied teams were post

facilities built by the other.

the new confession appeared to
hinge on a .38 caliber gun found
on Hall when he was arrested
here in a sWanky apartment
rented for him by a taxicab
driver, who later became suspi-
cious because of Halls spending
spree and tipped off police.
Slugs Fired from Gun.
The gun was turned over to
the FBI by ST. Louis Police
Chief jeremiah O'Connell. Bal
listics tests in Washington
showed Slugs found in a blue
station wagon of the couple were
fired from the weapon.
The station wagon was found
abandoned in Kansas City soon
after the arrest of the pair here.
When arrested here Hall had
nearly 1925, 900 in two Suitcases
in his apartment. He said he
couldn't remember what had
happened to the rest of it be-
cause he had been on a drink
ing spree.
But today the FBI indicated
that Hall, drug addict, had
given its agents additional in
formation about the missing
ransom money. They were not
too hopeful the money could be
recovered.
Both Hall and Mrs. Heady at
first insisted she was an inno-
cent pawn in the kidnapping.

By the A.soeiosed Press

PANMUNJOM, Oct. 12.-The
Communists indicated today they
are ready to start interviews
on Wednesday for North Korean
and Chinese war prisoners who
refuse to return home, and the
POW Repatriation Commission
took steps to get the delay
plagued explanations under way.
The development came amidst
charges by the United Nations
command that the Reds had
shipped Grated combat aircraft
into North Korea in violation
of the armiStice terms.
A u. N. C. spokesman said an
urgent request" for lnvestiga-
ton had been handed the Neu-
trail Nations Supervisory Com
mission, the four-nation body
charged with policing the truce.
Not Serious. Hull Says.
However, at the same time,
Gen. John E. Hull. new U. N.
commander in this troubled spot,
told newSmen he knew of mo
serious" violations of the armis-
tice by the Communists.
There have been some indi-
cations Of violations" Gen. Hull
said. "but I know of no serious
ones at present"
A spokesman for the U. N.
military armiStice commission,
which announced the protest in
statement, declined comment
on Gen. Hull'S remarks.
Allied observers, however, felt
the general was speaking in
broad terms of possible viola
tons that could spark renewed
warfare.
The military armistice COM
mission asserted that the Com
muniSts had shipped the Grated
aircraft from Manchuria to
Uiju airfield on the south side of
the Yalu River, just a few miles
from the huge Red air base at
Antung, Manchuria.
The U. N. statement gave no
numbers or type.
Gen. Hull conferred with 1t.
Gen. K. S. Thimayya, Indian
chairman of the Repatriation
Commission, for 80 minutes in
what a commission spokesman
termed a purely social" visit.
Gen. Hull flew to Korea today
in his first visit to the battered
peninsula since taking over the
top U. N command post from
Gen. Mark w. Clark.
He first met with South Ko-
rean President Syngman Rhee
in Seoul, then went to the AL
lied base camp at MunSan for
conferences with Allied officers
over the postponed "explana-
tionS" to reluctant POWs.
Break in Dispute Seen.
Spokesman for the repatria-
ton commission remained sill
ent. but these signs pointed to
a break in the dispute that has
stalled the start of explanations
since September &c:
l. The Communist Peiping
radio said the Reds are willing
to make concessions" and start
interviewing the 22,600 anti
Communist POWs Wednesday in
an effort to persuade them to
accept repatriation.
