Lt Gen K S Thimayya Indian chairman of the Neutral Nations Repatriation Commission went to an American compound to sound out sentiment after South Koreans refused to attend today's interviews. Thimayya who believes the prisoners should not harangue the interviewers during the attempts to persuade them to accept repatriation identified the American spokesman as Sgt Richard G Corden of Providence R I. Corden and British Marine Andrew M Condron told Thimayya they felt as their South Korean prisoner comrades did and said the ROKs should have the right to talk as long as they wanted to have their doubts clarified. Thimayya said Cordon would test the other Americans and report their reaction later. The South Koreans who have rejected repatriation have charged that the American forces used germ warfare and assaulted Korean women. Thimayya feared explanations will end unless the pro-Communist prisoners agree to attend the sessions in an orderly manner. An Indian source close to the bulky Americans predicted again that one or two of the GIs might come back but no more than that.
