Thimayya says prisoner exchange talks near dead end
Lt General K M Thimayya, Indian chairman of the Neutral Nations Repatriation Commission, said little progress remains in the stalled POW explanation program and warned the Communists that any solution is up to them. He met with Communist leaders at Kaesong for four hours and expected to confer again in a few days. Observers doubt the Reds will agree to new rules, while indications grow they seek to dodge propaganda defeat as most prisoners refuse repatriation. If the system collapses, Thimayya said India may use troops to screen uninterviewed prisoners.
