Miraben Named Asst. School Superintendent Armed E. German Police Alert For Final Food Rush
East German authorities ring Berlin with heavily armed forces to stop a final rush for Eisenhower food parcels before the Saturday deadline. Police halted traffic to Berlin from 50 miles out and blocked West Berlin pickups as 100000 parcels reached residents of the Soviet zone. Total free parcels reached about 2,500,000 in 17 days with the weeklong stop and a 12 day lull planned before a new program. Authorities also used terror to force harvest labor and suppress rumors amid a farm labor shortage.

United States Gathers Evidence of Atrocities for UN
The United States plans to present evidence of Communist atrocities in Korea to the United Nations. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, returning from Korea, said the form of evidence depends on its nature and that returned prisoners provide material, though many are dazed. Dulles spoke after a Denver meeting with President Eisenhower, noting preparatory measures to ensure safe repatriation of Americans. He also reported unqualified assurance from South Korea’s President Rhee that the armistice would not be violated until the U S Korean mutual defense pact is ratified, likely by February.

Communists Assert 1050 Americans Died In Captivity
FREEDOM VILLAGE Korea P Y Peiping radio claimed today that only 1 50 American and other non Korean prisoners died in Communist captivity but returning prisoners said the toll was much higher. The voice of Red China said Communist members of the Military Armistice Commission had handed over 481 new names of dead non Koreans to Allied authorities. In December 1951 they listed 569 dead. Pic Charles L Cooke 26 of Matthews Va said he had a list of 1425 prisoners who starved or died of malnutrition from January to May 1951 before the Communists took the roster from him. Cooke estimated that 2000 maybe more died in Camp No 5 at Pyoktang. Other estimates by returning prisoners have ranged upward for more than 4000 but a careful analysis indicated the number would fall between 2000 or 4000.
