Gov. Asks ST. Thomas
Press. Rudio Why
They Ignore Confobs

Governor de Castro has
been holding an appointment
at $50 each Thursday morn
ing for press conferences, but
for several months no one re-
presenting any of the news
papers or the radio station has
appeared at these conferences,
says the Home Journal.
In letters to the press and
radio this week the Governor
said he was DESTROYS of con-
tinuing the conferences, but
would not like to keep the
time open without having
some response. If the day and
hour are inconvenient, per-
haps we could set another
time, he suggested.
The Journal observed that
zone Of the reasons why re-
personalities Of press and
radio have been ignoring the
press conferences is due to the
fact that nearly everything of
news value is reported by the
Governor in his suppertime
chat on Wednesday evening,
leaving very little for
Thursday.

The Municipal Council of

viding that effective January

"At the recent hearing in

agreed that the practice was
undesirable from many stand

Communists Agree

have indicated that they are
willing to sign an armistice,
despite the fact that there still
remain some points to be re-
solved. Delegates have report
ed progress in the recent meet
ing held at Panmunjom.
The communists have dis
closed the guarantee given
them by the Allies that the
South Korean forces will
abide by the truce terms.
General Nam Il Of North Ko-
rea said that his side would
accept the assurances only at
face value, and would go
ahead with final arrangements
for an armistice.
The pledge that the commu-
nists seemed most pleased
with is that given by General
William Harrison that the
y, n. forces would live up to
the armistice terms even if
DR.. Syngman Rhee should
order his armies to violate the
agreement.
Assurance has also been
given that the UN Command
would refuse to give support,
including equipment and sup
plies, to the South Koreans in
case the latter undertook ag-
gressive action following a
truce.
