Communists charge cross border patrols in Korea truce zone
The Communist delegation at Panmunjom accused two five man South Korean patrols of crossing the armistice buffer into North Korea while the UN command rejected the charges as unfounded. They claimed a North Korean incident involved Koreans in US uniforms and a land sea approach near the North Korean coast. Maj. Gen. J. K. Lacey dismissed the evidence as insufficient and offered further examination if new information emerges. The South Korean government and Allies disavowed responsibility for the alleged infractions.

Congressmen Oppose Foreign A-Bomb Veto
Senate House Atomic committee members opposed any veto by Britain or other nations on U S use of the hydrogen or atomic bomb. They argued the 1943 Quebec pact ceded sovereignty, while White House and Hickenlooper disputed its cancelation as Truman clashed with officials over the pact. Bricker warned the veto would impede retaliation and sovereignty, urging independent U S action.
