puzzled by President Truman's blast at his trip to Korea, it was learned today, but is
determined not to become involved in any public wrangle with the President.
Lie to Get
Data on UN
Subversives
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Dec.
12 (11 3 )—A U.S. State Department
committee and American Justice
Department officials are reported
working on ways of giving confi
dential information on suspected
subversives to UN Secretary Gen
eral Trygve Lie.
The final decision will be up to
President Trum a n, informed
sources said today.
This development came as re
sentment was reported growing
among UN delegations over the
conduct of the whole question of
subversives in the UN: Some dele
gates, who would not be -identi
fied, said there is a strong feeling
that the delegation should be in
formed about what is going on
and not have to read sketchy re
ports second hand.
These delegates said it is ex
pected that the question of loyal
employees and the system used to
fire subversives might come up
tomorrow in the Financial Com
mittee when it takes up the ques
tion of UN staff regulations. This
may be delayed,- however, until a
later date.
Lie is expected to meet soon
with U.S. Attorney General Mc-
Granary and with Sen. Alexander
Wiley (R.-Wis.), who has taken a
keen interest in the issue of sub
versives in the UN.
Korean Reds
Seize 2 Hills
SEOUL, Saturday, Dec. 13 (JP)—
Chinese Communists seized th e
peaks of both Big and Little Nori
On the turbulent Western Front
late Friday. The Reds held grimly
to both positions through a night
of thunderous artillery duels lit
by the flares of Allied planes.
It was the second straight day
of savage battling with the South
Korean First Division. Both sides
swept back and forth across the
shell pitted outposts guarding one
of the main invasion routes to
Se"ul.
Allied big guns smashed stead
ily at Communist. positions. The
Reds equalled Allied firepower—
sometimes at the rate of 3000
shells an hour—for shorter per
iods.

of Truman
Shocks Ike
From sources of the highest re
liability, it can be said that Eisen
hower feels the Truman blast at
him was uncalled for, undignified,
and should be ignored.
Truman told a news conference
yesterday that the Eisenhower
journey to Korea was the result
of political' demagoguery and de
clared Gen. Douglas MacArthur
should lay before the administra
tion any Korean peace plan Mac-
Arthur may discuss with Eisen
hower.
Disputes Prisoner Issue
The President-elect will con
tinue on the course he has set
to find a solution to the war in
Korea—and this will include a
study of MacArthur's proposals
along with others advanced by
his advisers on ways and means
of ending the struggle in Korea.
But, it was learned, Eisenhower
is grimly determined that the
United States will not bring an
end to the Korean struggle un
less a truce calls for the return
of American prisoners of war now
held 'by the l Communists, And he
is on record against forced repat
riation of Communist prisoners
held by the Allies.
These developments came as
Eisenhower was winding up his
last day of talks with key ad
visers here before leaving tomor
row for New York.
Information on Far East
One source said Eisenhower
feels that MacArthur has a vast
store of information and exper
ience in Far Eastern affairs which
should be considered in formulat
ing the new administration's
peace program.
And Eisenhower believes the
American people would feel he
was not being honest and was not
getting all the information pos
sible if he failed to consult with
MacArthur on the Korean situa
tion.
Eisenhower's thinking was out
lined in this way:
The general believes the Amer
ican people want dignity restored
to the Presidency and that they
are "tired of petty bickering and
name Calling."

UN Rejects Arab
Tunisian Proposal
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Dec. 12 (AP)—The United Nations re
jected tonight an Arab-Asian plan for UN help in settling the bitter
French Tunisian dispute.
The' 60 nation Political Committee adopted instead a mildly
worded Latin American proposal which merely appeals to France
I to negotiate with Tunisia.
The United States and most of
the Western nations voted against
the Arab-Asian plan. The Soviet
bloc .favored it. The Arab-Asian
nations, after losing their pro
posal, then switched and support
ed the moderate Latin American
resolution. It carried by a vote
of 45 for, 3 against, and 10 absten
tions including the Soviet bloc
and Britain.
The final vote on the Arab-
Asian proposal was 24 for, 27
against and 7 abstentions. The op
erative parts of it already had
been killed by votes on indivi
dual paragraphs.
France was absent. It has boy
cotted the debate, contending its
relations with Tunisia are an in
ternal matter.

will boycott a debate on Morocco,

Congressmen Ask
Mac to Reveal Plan
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12 (il 3 )—Demands for an immediate con
gressional hearing of Gen. Douglas MacArthur's views on ending
the Korean War boiled up on Capitol Hill today in the wake of
President Truman's statement that he doesn't think MacArthur has
any new solution
Sen. Hunt (D.-Wyo.) said in a
that the Senate Armed Services
Committee has "a clear cut obli
gation, not just to the boys in
Korea and their parents, but to
the entire nation" to call an im
mediate session.
Rep. Wickersham (D.-Okla.), a
member of the House Armed
Services Committee, went fur
ther. He proposed a joint session
of both the Senate and House
committees behind closed doors.
"For his sake and the country's
sake, he (MacArthur) should be
heard," Wickersham said.
In addition to telegraphing his
proposal to Chairmen Russell and
Vinson (D.-Ga.), Wickersham said
he also had wired MacArthur ask
ing if he would be receptive to the
idea. Wickersham was a member
of a congressional delegation that
visited Korea earlier this year.
Senator Hunt wrote Russell:
"If the general has a 'clear and
definite solution' to the Korean
War there certainly can be no jus
tification in withholding it from
the chiefs of staff, the Congress or
the American people."
Declaring Congress should be
"informed and consulted" at once
if there •is any new plan to end
the war, Hunt told reporters:
another French administered ter
ritory in North Africa which
wants greater self rule. It has
been a scene of bloody rioting
this week.
The Latin American resolution
expressed confidence in France's
proclaimed policy to "further ef
fective development of the free
institutions of the Tunisian peo
ples." It also expressed the hope
France and Tunisia would ne
gotiate "on an urgent basis with
a view to bringing about self
government for Tunisia."

Communists
Open Peace
Conference
VIENNA, Austria, Dec.• 12 (2P)—
World communism tonight opened
what it has called this planet's
greatest peace congress, but the
opening speech indicated the con
gress will bring no new Com
munist proposals to gain man
kind's great goal.
Prompted by the Kremlin, the
"Congress of the Peoples for
Peace" is supposed to find • ways
to end the shooting in Korea,
Malaya and Indochina, terminate
the cold war and insure the se
curity of nations.
But no new ideas on these sub
jects were advanced in the key
note address of Frederic Joiliot
Curie, the Communist scientist
whom the French government
fired in 1950 from the leadership
of its atomic energy commission.
As president of the Rusian-backed
World Peace Council, he made no
proposals that had not been made
at similar world peace congresses
in 1949 and 1950.
Although the , Vienna congress
supposedly would attract many
Persons and groups who are not
known Communists or fellow
travelers, it did not succeed. The
only prominent new face not seen
at previous congresses was that
of a French existentialist writer,
Jean Paul Sartre.
