u. 5. Begins Drive
For u. n. TO Condemn
Korean Atrocities
BY the Associated Press

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y, Nov.
21.-The United States has be-
gun its campaign to lineup sup
port in the United Nations Gen
eral Assembly next Wednesday
to condemn Communist China
and North Korea for atrocities
in Korea.
Diplomatic sources reported
they have been approached for
consultations on whether the
Assembly should set up an in
veStigative group and what
powers it should have.
The United States delegation
declined to say how far its reso-
luton will go in seeking what
one source called "the strongest
possible action by the General
Assembly.
1t was learned, however, that
Henry Cabot Lodge, jr., chief
United States delegate, was work.
ing on what he considers a major
United States policy speech. The
United States may also issue a
new atrocity document, supple
menting the Pentagon white
paper which charged that thou
sands of American and Allied
soldiers, and Korean civilians
were tortured and slaughtered by
Communists. The Pentagon
listed 6,133 American soldiers as
atrocity victims.
May Skip Holiday.
At the request of Britain, AS
Sembly committees were bypassed
and the atrocity question was
put directly into the 60-nation
Assembly plenary.
1t appeared that the debate
would require sessions next
Thursday, despite the Thanks
giving holiday.
The atrocity debate will coin
eide with action by the Assem-
bly's Social Welfare Committee
on a resolution indicting the
Soviet Union as an infection

Red Stall in Korea
Seen Pending New
Move Before U.N.
By George Macarthur
Assoeiofed Press Foreign Correspondent,

TOKYO, Sunday, Nov. a.
Communistic tactics this past
week have been to stall off any
accomplishments at Panmunjom,
angle for popularity in Asia
and await the next Red move at
the United Nations General As
sembly. convening Tuesday in
New York.
And what probably lies ahead?
/. In the arrangement of q
Korean peace conference-long
discussions. punctuated by prop
aganda TRADES, while the Reds
try to work Russia, India. Bur-
ma, Indonesia and PakiStan
into the picture as "neutrals."

22.300 Chinese and North Korean
prisoners baking at a return to

mate existing since last Monday
while the Reds try to figure how
to back out from a reSounding
defeat. They've been unable to
persuade only 10 of the 2,431
interviewed so far to return. And
the deadline for these explana-
tionS to end is December %.
8. At the next U. N. General
Assembly sesSion-probably a
new effort to have the U. N.
change its opposition to seating
Russia as a neutral" at the
Korean peace conference.
Three Changes Noted.
Most enlightening has been
Red maneuvers over a peace
conference. On the surface,
they've changed position three
times. At first, they wanted
neutrals to be full members with
belligerentS at a round table
conference. They lost on this
issue in the United Nations.
Next Ki Sok Box, North
Korean diplomat. suggested at
Panmunjom that the neutrals be
seated as observers" and use
their good Offices" to smooth
the negotiations. The U. N. side
showed interest but asked for
more details. Yesterday the Reds
suggested that the neutrals
regulate" the debate on the
conference.
United States Envoy Arthur
Dean-A patient man who once
said he'd give the Reds three
weeks to make the arrangements
and now has gone through the
fourth Week-quickly rejected
that move.
He said that could allow Rus
sia to play a giant role. The
two sides wrangled for three
hours, then recessed until to-
morrow.
Angling for Popularity.
After yesterdays session, Mr..
Dean COlQ neWSmen ne accused
the Reds Of marking time until
the U. N. General Assembly ses-
sion Tuesday where he suspects
a new Communist move will be
made to arrange a peace con-
ference on Red terms.
Meanwhile, the Reds keep an
Cling for popularity in Asia by
insisting that not only Russia
claSsed as an asian neutral"-
but also Burma, Indonesia, Paki-
stan and India attend the peace
conference.
Yesterday the Peiping Red ra-
dio quoted a Tientsin newspaper
editorial which made these
points: The Korean war was
"a menace to peace in Asia;
