End of Korean War Set for UN Discussions
James Marlow reports the UN General Assembly will push to end the Korean War or at least discuss it. The U N faces possible Russian proposals for a truce or renewed denunciations of the United States. Acheson will urge pressure on the Communists to halt fighting as Vishinsky arrives with a high-level Soviet team. Truce talks collapsed at Panmunjom, and a major Communist offensive followed, possibly for military reasons to drive peace talks at the U N. The world grows weary of the fighting, seeking compromise.
