RESSIONAL 2y HINGTON, D, o, SATURDAY 1 P.M. Edition VOL. LXXIX., NO. 11,968 Afrocity Report Verified TQKYO, Nov. 17—(P—Gen. Mat- thew B. Ridgway today verified the Communist atrocity killings of Uni- ted Nations soldier captives in Korea | and declared “the shocking impact | of the brutality which has been revealed should have been no sur- prise to the American people.” But the supreme allied comman- der in his first comment on the sensational story that shocked the! world Wednesday expressed Iegret over the way it was disclosed. Ridgway, in a statement, said all known deaths already had been | reported to next of kin and that the report had caused needless an- guish among relatives of those| soldiers still listed as missing. Wednesday Col. James M. Han- ley, head of the War Crimes sec- tioriof the U. S. 8th Army, disclos- ed in Korea that nearly 6,000 al- lied soldiers—5,500 of them Am- ericans—had been slaughtered by their Communist captors since the outbreak of the war. Ridgway’s statement did not men- tioned the figures announced by Hanley. Hanley was brought to Tokyo to-, day by Col. George Patrick Welch, Ridgway's public information of- ficer, pr mably to answer any | questions while the Ridgway state- ment 'was being prepared. | Ridgway’s Statement | Shortly before Peiping radio ent- ered a blanket denial of Hanley's, report. It maintained that Umted‘ Nations prisoners of war were treat- ed well “despite difficult condl- tions.” Then the ~ Chinese radio countered with its own charg- es -that “thousands and tens of| thousands” of Chinese and North | Korean Red soldiers “who fell into | the hands of the United Nations! forces have been massacred.” } UN Prisoners Okeh This ran counter to all reports oI United Nation's treatment of pn- soners. Hanley in his report said all | Red prisoners were well cared for. Only yesterday AP photographer | Robert H. Schutz visited a large | war prisoner camp and said he| found the Communist captives well fed and well clothed. Ridgway statement emphasi'l.ed" that there had been no intention | of withholding the atrecity ' figures, “1t had been concluded some months ago, that at an appropriate time when the accumulated evi-| yence warfanted and when due co- ordination had been effected with the proper authorities in Wash- ington, this evidence should be made public,” Ridgway said. “That this coordination was not ' properly effected at the time of this reiease is of the utmost regret to| this headquarters.” ‘!

UN Offer Made To Accept Red Buffer Zone By ROBERT B, TUCKMAN MUNSAN, Korea, Nov. 17—®— The U.N. Command, in a dramatic move to end - the cease-fire dead- lock, today offered to accept the Communist buffer zone proposal—if an armistice is signed within 30 days. The Communists indicated they might agree. North Korean Maj. Gen. Lee Sang | Cho told ‘United Nations negotia- tors the U.N. plan “seems in the main to be in accordance with our principles.” The Reds promised to study the proposal overnight and “comment” further when the subcommittees working on the cease-fire line issue meet again at 11 am. Sunday (6 p.m., PST, Saturday) in Panmun- jom. Maj. Gen. Henry I. Hodes, chief UN. subcommittee delegate, told the Communist negotiators Satur- day that the U.N. Allies will aceept the Red proposal to fix a tentative cease-fire line along the present battle front. If no armistice is signed before the deadline, then a new cease-fire line would have to be fixed, Hodes said. The United Nations plan demands clear-cut assurance from the Reds that agreement on the tentative cease-fire line would not be an end to the shooting before a full armistice is signed. No one in official position at this advance U.N. Command Base would suggest that agreement on the Allied buffer zone proposal would mean an immediate halt in the ground fighting.

This one is the payoff game for the “know how” boys. The In- |dians can clinch a tie for the con- |ference title. And.an invitation to the Rose Bowl will be a foregone | conclusion even if they lose to Cal- ifornia a week later. The odds makers gave Stanford a 13-point edge despjte the fact that center Rod Garner is out with a knee injury and halfback Harry' | Hugasian was to be used only | sparingly because of broken toe. | Oregon State has a 3-5 record but their losses sound better than | their wins. The Beavers dropped a 6-0 contest to Michigan State; wilt- ed before USC 16-14,- after leading 14-0; and dropped a close one to) UCLA 7-0 last week. They also trounced Washington 40-14, a team Stanford had to battle all the way to win 14-7.

The president reportedly has sent out word to fire, retire, or get the resignation of all government exec- utives whose outside activities, how- ever legal, might provide fodder for Republican campaign oratory.
