U N voids truce ban as new arms head to Korea
The U N Command in Panmunjom voided the Korean armistice ban on new weapons to meet the Communist buildup in North Korea. Murray Snyder said the arms would include jet aircraft capable of carrying atomic arms but no atomic weapons for ground forces at this time. The North denounced the move while the U N pledged to observe the cease fire. U S officials refused to confirm storage plans for atomic ammunition. Lessons from the meeting left Lt Gen Homer L Litzenberg reporting a milder Red reply than expected and no final timetable for bringing in modern weapons.
