To Open Monday;
Streets Surfaced
By james 6. Deone


School officials said today they
are planning to open the new
Draper Elementary School next
Monday.
Nearly 600 children now at
tending Simon School are sched-
uled to move into the new school
at Ninth street and Wahler
place Sc.

job in her office on the first floor
of the big. $672.O00 school to-
day. Workmen yesterday be-
gan moving in furniture and
supplies, and the schools 18
teachers will have their first
meeting tomorrow.
Street Surfacing.
District Highway Department
crews were putting finishing
touches on gravel surfacing on
the brand-new streets around
the school this morning. Work
men labored Saturday and Sun
day on the street job, which had
been held up by variety of cir
cumstances, including a delay
in obtaining pipe for water lines.
The permanent surface won't
be on for some time yet, but
the gravel is enough to permit
opening the school without mud.
Draper's opening will enable
Simon to restore all its pupils
to full-time classes. About 800
youngsters have been on part
time schedules since September
because Simon has been greatly
over-populated.
Even Draper is expected to be
filled up soon, and next years
school budget includes request
for funds for an additional floor.
Open on Schedule.
The new school is being
opened precisely on schedule,
officials had hoped to get it open
sooner, and John Testor and
Sons, the builders, actually had
their part of the job done sew
eral weeks ago, but furniture
couldn't be moved in until the
streets were ready.
The school builders have been
racing a new section of the Ma
tional Capital Housing Author
ity's big Highland Dwellings de-
velopment, new houses in the de-
velopment are now opening up
just across the street from the
school.
The new two-story school is
the first in the District system to
have all ceilings sound-treated.

vishinsky Tells U. N.
Atrocity Charges
Are Entirely False
BY the Associated Press

UNITED NATIONS. N. Y~
Dec. 1.-Russia'S Andrei Y. VII
shinsky today branded United
States charges of Red atrocities
in Korea a "flagrantly con-
cocted Justification"
The fiery Soviet delegate told
the 60-nation United Nations
General Assembly that charges
detailed yesterday by Henry
Cabot Lodge, jr., of the United
States were brought out to
dynamite" peace negotiations
in Korea.
He pulled out all stops in call
ing the Lodge report cynical"
"cowardly," "a maneuver to
cover the worst crimes of all
perpetrated by the American
military circles in Korea" and
"redolent of SANDER"
Russian Is First Speaker.
Mr.. Vishinsky was the first
speaker at the days session,
called to debate the American
charges that some $4,000 per-
sons were victims of atrocities
committed by Communist Chi
neSe and North Korean soldiers.
The Soviet bloc, counting on
the neutral nations to. stay out
of the debate and abstain from
voting, apparently is determined
to fight tooth and nail the whole
atrocity issue.
India already has served notice
that as head of the Neutral Ma
tions Repatriation Commission in
Korea, she will neither speak nor
vote. Other neutrals. specially
members of the Arab-Asian bloc,
also are expected to keep silent.
Delegates Shocked.
Most delegates sat in shocked
silence yesterday as Mr.. Lodge
delivered the stark atrocity re-
port and introduced a resolution
calling on the 60-nation as
sembly to:
l. Express "its grave concern
at reports and information that
North Korean and Chinese Com
munists forces have, in a large
number of instances, employed
inhuman practices against the
heroic soldiers of forces under
the United Nations Command in
Korea and against the civilian
population of Korea"
2. Condemn "the commission
by any government or authori-
ties Of murder, mutilation, tor
ture, and other atrocity acts
against captured military per-
sonnel or civilian population, as
violation of rules of international
law and basic standards of con-
duct and morality and as affront-
ing human rights and the dignity
and worth of the human person"
Figure Raised to $4,000.
In his speech Mr.. Lodge raised
the earlier United States figure
Of nearly 10000 atrocity victims
to some $4,000. He later told
newsmen it was his personal
conviction that over $4,000 of
these are dead" He explained
that the higher figure included
estimates of losses in the notori-
GUS death marches and prison
camps which had not been in
cluded in the earlier United
States Army report.
Mr.. Lodges denunciation of
the bestial Slayings was echoed
in yesterdays debate by repre-
sentatives of Britain, Turkey and
Canada. All labeled them an af-
front against human rights.
The Soviet bloc'S position in
the debate was defined by Po-
lands Deputy Foreign Minister
Marian NaSzowski, who said the
United States dragged the atroc-
ity question before the U. N. as
propaganda maneuver designed
to wash off the stains of guilt"
for Korean bombing by Ameri-
can planes and for waging germ
warfare.
