U.N Considers New Cease-fire Efforts in Korea
The United Nations cease-fire committee weighed a fresh appeal to Peiping to halt fighting in Korea after China’s rejection of cease-fire steps. An unnamed committee member floated asking Chou En Lai to send a rep back to U.N. for talks or a U.N. and Red China meeting. The cable from Chou En Lai was read at the Rau apartment with copies distributed for study. If no appeal is proposed, a formal report of failure could go to the U.N. General Assembly in early January.
