Eden Suggests
Truce Solution
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Nov. 11- (W)—Anthony Eden offered
Andrei Y.; Vishinsky a four-point program today for settling the
prisoner of war deadlock in Korea. He appealed to the Soviet foreign
minister to take "one crucial step" toward a final settlement and
accept the British idea.
Vishinsky sat grimly silent in the UN Assembly as the British
foreign secretary spoke and there
was little hope in Western circles
that the Russian would take the
one step.
Vishinsky insisted yesterday that
all prisoners must be repatriated.
Eden paid close attention. Today
he told the assembly he does not
despair of agreement. He out
lined his set of principles as fol
lows:
"First: That every prisoner of
war has the right, on the conclu
sion
of an armistice, to be re
leased.
"Second: • That every prisoner
of war has the right to be speedily
repatriated.
"Third: That there is a duty on
the detaining side to provide fa
cilities for such repatriation.
"Fourth: That the detaining
side has no right to use force
in connection with the disposal of
prisoners of war.
"In other words, after an armis
tice a prisoner of war may not
be either forcibly detained or for
cibly repatriated."
"The peoples of the world are
confronted• with the gravest of
perils," Eden said.."We know of
the swift discoveries of science
which, if not matched by political
advance, must one day destroy
humanity. We know, and the
Communists know, that in every
field of endeavor our fates are
linked together, East and West
alike. We know that the health,
the happiness, the prosperity of
each nation is essential to all.
And, yet, while we all know these
things, we cannot even take ; it
seems, the one crucial step which
would bring us agreement in Ko
rea, and give the world a fresh
I lease of life and hope. Here is a
problem to test our statesman
ship. Cannot we in •this assembly,
along the lines I have suggested,
lead and guide the nations to its
solution?',
Reds Take
Korean Hill
13th Time
SEOUL, Wednesday, Nov. 12
(4?)—AboUt 1500 Chinese Red
troops, striking behind a terrific
barrage, - seized Pinpoint- Hill on
Sniper Ridge Tuesday night for
the 13th-time in 29 days.
It was the same, sort of headlong
attack that had virtually wrecked
two Chinese armies numbering
up to 80,000 men—on the Central
Front within a month.
But the Allies had lost the last
gain they had made in a limited
offensive they' launched Oct. 14
kir control of the ridges towering
notth of Kumhwa.
Last week the Reds recaptured
neighboring Triangle Hill, Jane
Russell Hill and Little Sandy.
Then late Tuesday the fury of
the Red counteroffensive was di
rected at South Korean defend
ers- of Pinpoint—highest point on
Sniper Ridge: The attack, shoved
the Allies back to their bases on
the lower spurs of Sniper Ridge.
. The battle was fought in pitch
darkness. -A drizzling rain and
lowering clouds around the height
doused Allied flares and hampered
air and artillery support.
The Reds opened the attack at
4 p.m. with a mighty barrage. One
U.S. military adviser c al le d it
"the heaviest artillery concentra
tion I have ever seen."

Leaders Meet
To Arrange
ClO's Future
PITTSBURGH, Nov. 11 VP)
CIO lieutenants from all sections
of the nation met today at the bier
of their fallen leader, Philip .Mur
raY. Tomorrow they'll hold a
closed session at which the labor
group's future course will be char
tered.
Nine CIO vice presidents will
confer with Allan Haywood, ex
ecutive yice president of the CIO,
on the mechanics of electing a
new president to succeed Murray.
Murray died of a heart attack
in a San Francisco hotel Sunday
at the age of 66. He was on the
West Coast to prepare for the
scheduled Nov. 17 start of the CIO
convention.
With Murray gone, his aides
must decide whether to go ahead
with convention plans and how to
go about naming his successor.
Whatever they. decide probably
will be ratified at another Pitts
burgh meeting on Friday of the
CIO Executive Board. That group
consists of the vice presidents,
plus elected representatives from
various CIO unions.
In Detroit, CIO sources outside
Reuther's immediate c i r c l e are
confident the UAW president will
win the presidency of the CIO if
he makes a bid for it. Reuther's
aides aren't commenting on his
chances.
