Dulles Pushes Berlin To Skip China Meeting
Secretary of State Dulles urged Berlin to avoid action on Russia’s proposal for a five power meeting with Communist China and to confront German unification and European security instead. Eden and Bidault backed the decision as Molotov pressed for broader five power talks. The United States, Britain, and France rejected the China inclusion while McCardle stressed tackling Germany and Austria as the world expects.

Korea Pros Moving To New Homes
Twenty one Americans one Briton and 325 South Koreans leave the Korean neutral zone for their self chosen Communist future. Indian Lt. Gen Thimayya approved a plan to have Red Cross societies of North Korea and China relocate the men to new homes in the North. The Indian custodian force moves to wind up its office and return to India. The S 8th Army said 6,000 Indians would leave Inchon harbor for India between Feb 7 and 17. The Americans told newsmen they want the Communist command to accept them as free men. The Red Army has refused to take the 347 as war prisoners. Communist leaders charged it was illegal for Indians to return Korean war prisoners. By using Red Cross groups the Reds continue to deny POW status while arranging relocation.

Coffee Price Rise To Be Investigated
CIO President Walter Reuther assailed President Eisenhower's plan for government sponsored strike votes as reflecting anti labor prejudice. He charged the 14 point Taft Hartley revisions would worsen the law and blasted the administration as aligned with manufacturers and anti union groups. Mitchell said the vote should precede a walkout, while the Chamber of Commerce raised doubts about parts of the program.

Substitute For Treaty Plan Slated In Senate
Senator Knowland will offer a Senate substitute for the Bricker constitutional amendment on treaty making. He will be joined by several other senators, with Bricker undecided but informed of the plan. Eisenhower prefers no amendment if Bricker’s version would hinder U.S. relations with other nations. The labor notes touch on CIO unions and government interference in strikes, with Eisenhower’s Jan. 11 labor message proposing limits on struck employers and rival unions challenging bargaining agents. Reuther reacts to the move.
