Speculation rises over UN liaison to Kaesong talks
The United Nations command accepted a Communist request to send a liaison team to Panmunjon near the Kaesong neutral zone amid questions about resuming armistice talks. Four unarmed South Korean soldiers reportedly entered the neutral zone, prompting speculation whether the Reds seek talks or to press new charges of violations. Brig. Gen. Frank A. Allen said UN officers and three reporters would meet the Communists at 7 AM. General Ridgway offered to send liaison officers anytime the Reds wish to resume talks, but emphasized that they must initiate any move. Some observers doubted the early hour signaled talks, others saw it as a move to trigger an immediate investigation into a possible new charge. The UN viewed the incident cautiously as it prepared for potential developments. (Concluded on Page 9)
