A diplomatic informant re-
ported that the three had agreed
on a compromise proposal call
ing for a seven-nation round
table peace conference including
the United States, Britain, the
Soviet Union, France, Red China
and North and South Korea. The
informant indicated this was
aimed at countering Communist
demands for the inclusion of a
number of neutral nations.
(The State Department to-
| day fatty denied the reports
of a secret agreement. Henry
Suydam, department spokes-
man, said:
CT am authorized to state
that no new plan for the COM
position of the Korean po-
litical conference was discussed

Ministers at London"
(Mr. Suydam said he could
not say whether any one had

elsewhere But he told ques-
tionerS fatty that there was
no agreement or official pro-
posal for such a change.)

Peiping Agrees
ToU. N. Bid for
Korean Talks
But Insists Nations
To Join in Peace
PurIey Be Decided

BY the Associated Press
TOKYO, Tuesday, Oct. 90
Communist China last night ac-
cepted United States invita-
ton to start planning the Korean
peace conference at Panmunjom
next Monday, but the Reds stub
bornly insisted on the right to
settle there who will take part
in the full-scale talks.
The Communists didn't yield
step to earlier United States
demands that the preliminary
sessions settle only time and
place Of the peace conference
and not its makeup.
In a note to the United States
and the United Nations, broad
cast by the Red Peiping radio,
the Communists again insisted
that acknowledgement nations take
part in the conference, making
it round-table meeting.
The U. N. has proposed a
conference of belligerents only.
with Russia to sit in on the Red
side if the Communists invite
her. In earlier notes the allies
have refused to discuss compost
ton of the peace conference
beyond that limit-at least at
Panmunjom.
Follows London Reports.
However, the Red note came
in the wake of reports from
London that the Foreign Min
listers of the United States,
Britain and France have agreed
secretly on a new and different
plan-a peace conference made
up Of the Big Five and North
Korea.
Such, a conference repeatedly
would include Russia and-for
this meeting, anyway - Red
China, rather than Nationalist
China.
CThe State Department flat
ly denied that the Big Three
have agreed on a new plan
for the Korean conference.)
The Red note was signed by
Red Chinese Premier and For
eign Minister Chou En-lai who
spoke for North Korea also.
Noting the U. N.-propoSed ad-
mission of Russia, Cou said:
This is sufficient to show that
the principle (of not limiting the
conference to belligerentS) .
is already approved by the great
est of members of the U. NJ"
Allied Contention Denied.
He said the General Assembly
has rejected the reasonable pro-
posals" of the Reds, Blowing to
the will of a minority of nations
and going against the United
Nations Charter" Chou termed
the Red view a "principled atti-
tude."
He denied an Allied contention
that in the early stages Of the
armiStice talks the Reds them
selves had opposed allowing neu-
trails to sit in on the conference.
In an involved, Step-by- step
reasoning, Chou accused the
U. N. of trying then February,
1882 to pack the proposed con-
ference with U. N. nations who
were not in the fighting. He
said the Red delegation was
against such an action, but he
denied it had ever "held the
opinion" that neutral nations
should be excluded.
The earlier allied proposals for
the conference called for only
the belligerents-with Russia
sitting in on the Communist
side if invited by the Reds.
The Reds had asked for 9
round-table meeting, with five
nations-RusSia, India, PakiStan
Thailand, Burma-sitting in as
neutrals.
The latest Red note as broad
cast by Peiping capped a long
exchange of messages between
the allies and the Communist:

To Be Made Largely

Civil Service Commission today
said Government employment in
the Washington area will be
reduced further by only 4,700
jobs between now and next June
80 and he declared that most Of
this will be achieved by not
filling normal personnel vacan-
cies.

ers between last July l. and
next June 80.
Mr.. Young last month esti-
mated that about 100000 Fed
eral jobs would be eliminated
by next June 80. His revised
estimate today placed the num-
ber of eventual job cuts at 49,
600. but he said that 100000 of
these reductions had already
been achieved. leaving only u.s.
900 positions to be abolished.
Picture Brighter Here.
"The picture for the Wash
ington area is even brighter"
Mr.. Young declared. Assuming
the same per cent reduction
this fiscal year, we will lose about
11,700 employees here. During
July and August we have al
ready dropped 1000, or go per
cent. If the remaining reduc-
ton of 4,700 is spread evenly
over the other 10 months, it can
be accomplished largely through
allowing vacancies to go untitled,
rather than having formal re-
ductions in force"
Mr.. Young's estimates were
based on a recent survey be the
commission and the Budget Bu-
reau.
In his speech, Mr.. Young called
on Washington merchants to do
their part "in quieting groundlesS
apprehension on the part of Fed
eral employees"
No Basis for Tension.
There has been no business re-
cesSion in Washington" he said.
There has only been fear that
there might be one"
Mr.. Young asserted that the
true facts furnish no basis for
the tension and insecurity that
has been reported to be wide
spread throughout the Govern
ment establishments in Washing
ton" He asked the merchants
to pinpoint the facts in con-
facts and conversations they have
with Government workers.
He declared that "the separa-
ton of one long service employe
does not indicate that no long,
service enploye is safe. 1t simply
indicates some special circum-
stances governing that special
case"
Mr.. Young reiterated assur-
ances that career employees gen.
orally can be assured of con-
tinuing employment in the
Government so long as their
services are satisfactory. Mr..
Young added that only a slim
proportion of indefinite employees
would be affected by the con-
templated reductions.
