Soviets shift Korea stance as UN momentum tests resolve
Washington observers say Moscow is softening hostile Korea rhetoric while hinting at possible Soviet or Chinese involvement north of the 38th parallel to block UN advances. Diplomats note reduced Soviet propaganda and Vishinsky’s U.N. speech seen as less hostile, with officials cautious that ending the Korea crisis could ease pressure for defense mobilization. In Maryland, five chambers explore forming a statewide Chamber of Commerce, with Annapolis leading the effort and urban and rural groups coordinating.
