RIDG SURPRISE V TO KOREA By OLEN CLEMENTS MUNSAN, Korea. (®—Truce ne- kept tempers in check today as they wrangled fruitlessly | gotiators over terms of a Korean armistice. | The only outburst came from a Chinese delegate who scornfully to “running dogs.”” Maj Claude made his daily plea that the Reds promise not to build airfields in North Korea during a truce. The Communists replied, as us ual, that their pledge not to send combat planes across the Yalu dur ing a truce was sufficient guaran- tee Gen Ferenbaugh In an adjoining tent Rear Adm. | |B. E.

Ferenbaugh told the Communists “We,have shown conclusively that | strict the rehabilitation and con- ing an armistice is neither a vio- lation of sovereign right nor an interference in the internal ataire| of the other side. “You cannot change the fact that any sovereign state that enters into an armistice agreement does so knowing that it has agreed to cer- tain restrictions on its sovereign! rights.” Chine Maj. Gen, Hsieh Fang said the idea that nations can agree ; to restrict some of their Sovereign | ; rights without losing their sover- | eignty may be all right “for some of the running dogs” going along with the United States, but not for North Korea. ‘Air Force Bomber . ° Mishap Injures 7 HOUSTON, Tex.
