Chinese Radio Demands
'Cast Iron Site Proposal
TOKYO, Tuesday, Oct. 16—(/P) —The Red, China radio today
called for a “cast iron” agreement on the neutrality, of the site for
resuming talks on a Korean cease-fire. It-insisted that Allied air
craft be .barred from the area.
Allied and Red liaison officers, who have argued the neutral
zone question for days, were scheduled to meet at 10 a.m. today
at Panmunjom, proposed new site
for the talks,
The major is' the size
of a neutral zone around Kae
song, former location of the ne
gotiations.' The' Reds want- the
five-mile neutral zone retained
while the Allies want it reduced
to 3000 yards. Panmunjom 'is" a
Red outpost. six miles east of
Kaesong on, the fringe of the
neutral zone.
"Meanwhile, observers in Tokyo
speculated that Gen. Matthew B.
Ridgway, supreme Allied com
mander, might discuss the cease
fire situation at. a press confer
ence at 11:30 a.m. today at his
headquarters i here.
, The Red China radio broadcast
from Peiping quoted Alan Win
nington, correspondent of the
Communist London Daily Work
er.
He said any neutrality agree
ment must cover the Allied Air
Force, “which has been guilty of
all the most serious breaches.’.’
This was a reference- to Red
charges that the' Allies presistent
ly violated the Kaesong neutral
zone. - The Allies have admitted
only three violations.

Red Resistance
Stiffens as UN
Continues Drive
U.S. EIGHTH ARMY HEAD
QUARTERS, i Korea, Tuesday,
Oct . 16—(AP) —Communist re
sistance stiffened on the central
front Monday as Allied infantry
men pushed a three.-day offensive
which has conquered nearly 100-
square miles of Communist North
Korean territory.
In the rugged" East, the U.S.
Sefcond Division’s 38th regiment
successfully stormed the highest
mountain peak between “Heart
break Ridge” and the Pukhan
River—a towering crest 4000 feet
high. The, victory came as the
North Korean army communique
boasted that Red troops had “an
nihilated” the 38th regiment.
The west was comparatively
quiet.. However, the communists
stepped up their barrages of mor
tar and artillery fire from long
range.
Advances on the central front
since dawn Saturday have carried
the Allies a full five miles for
ward—within easy light artillery
range of the Red supply and
headquarters city of Kumsong, 30
miles north of the 38th parallel.
Mossadegh Warns UN
'Keep Hands off Iran'
NEW YORK, Oct. 15 (IP)
Iran’s aged and ailing Premier
Mohammed Mossadegh, told the
UN Security Council today to
keep ' hands off in the British-
Irariian oil dispute' and let Iran
shape its own economic destiny.
Iran Won't Be Forced
At the same time, he barred
any further direct - negotiations
with Britain except on two ques
tions: compensation for British
investments in the now national
ized Anglo-Iranian Oil Company
and possible sale of oil to Bri
tain. . •
Mossadegh, speaking slowly
and calmly in French, warned:
“We wifi not be coerced wheth
er by foreign governments or by
international authorities.”
- Charges Exploitation
The gist of his argument was
that the oil question was an in
ternal problem and, therefore, not
within the jurisdiction of the Se
curity Council.
The Premier said his govern
ment . feels that' the Security
Council “has no jurisdiction to
hear this complaint.” He repeated
his charges, often made in Teh
ran, that the British-owned An
glo-Iranian Oil Company had ex
ploited his country and its people.

Suez Defense Plan
Rejected by Egypt
CAIRO, Oct. 15—(A“) —Egypt rejected the western power plan
to make the Suez an international defense bastion tonight and her
parliament slashed old ties with Britain for defense and for rule
of the vast Sudan.
Wildly cheering these historic acts, parliament voted that the
British must get out of the Suez Canal area—and also the Sudan
where they have ruled jointly
with Egypt for more than half
a century.
Official sources in London said
Britain would ignore the one
sided denunciation of Suez and
Sudan treaty rights and would
use force if necessary against any
eviction efforts.^
Against a backdrop of tumult
inside.and outside the building,
parliamenLmoved overwhelming
ly to make the necessary consti
tutional changes to absorb the
Sudan and proclaim King Far
ouk I the King of Egypt and the
Sudan.
(American officials in Washing
ton indicated the United States
would ■ support Britain if she de
cides to keep troops in the Suez
Canal area. They indicated the
western powers would press for
ward with their plan to create a
Middle East defense command as
proposed to Egypt Saturday by
the U.S., Britain, France, and
Turkey. These officials said it
was unlikely an uncooperative
Egypt could qualify for Ameri
can arms aid.)
