Meanwhile, the Korean Embassy released last night a message sent 12 days ago by Rhee to President Bisenhower asking for a defense treaty with the U. S. and including a provision for keeping U. S. air. and naval forces in the Korean area indefinitely as protection against new aggression. Rhee’s other requests, including withdrawal of Communist and U.N, forces, had previously been made known, South Korean attacks on the im- pending armistice agreement be- came a factor of critical impor- tance in setting up the, post-armi- stice war prisoner repatriation commission when Switzerland an- nounced Tuesday a refusal serve unless South Korea ap- proved. Yesterday, however. the government at Bern began recon- sidering aud today the situation was this: Sweden--Ambassador Erik Bohe- man delivered to the State De- partment late yesterday a note stating that. Sweden “has decided | to accept to serve.” India — Prime Minister Nehru | was quoted in news dispatches as saying India was ready to serve but would have to reconsider if South Korean troops pulled out of the U. N. Command. U. S. officials considered that India, which is slated to head ‘the commission, will undoubtedly serve. Switzerland — Foreign Minister Max Petitpierre gaid at Bern his country “could be induced” to take part in order to avoid delaying an armistice.

And while the resolution did not specify the nature of the pact, some assemblymen talked private- ly of a military alliance, As thousands of South Koreans shouted slogans and snake-danced through the streets, the Assembly also adopted a resolution calling on the U. N. Command to scrap the present truce plan and start over again. Some 30,000 chanting Koreans, carrying placards urging that no armistice be signed until Korea is unified, paraded through Pusan.

She also told of her servant woes. Because she entertained a great deal and had a big house, she required a housekeeping couple. ‘But I ended up working for them,” she sighed. Although she didn’t mention it, friends believe that a large part of the reason for her change of locale is her grief over the death of publicist Steve Hannagan.
