U.N. Committee To Wait Week For "Cease-Fire" Reply
NEW YORK, Dec. 21 (Recd. 6pm).— The Cease-Fire Committee today informed Peking that it would wait until next week before making a final report to the United Nations Political Committee on the chances of stopping the fighting in Korea. The message to Mr. Chouen-Lai, Foreign Minister of the Chinese People’s Republic, said: “We hope to receive your reply to our earlier message regarding the cease-fire arrange-
ments in Korea. The Political Committee of the United Nations has now taken brief recess, but will meet again very shortly to consider, amongst other things, a full report from the cease-fire group.” The message to Mr. Chouen-Lai is believed to have assured Peking that the ceasefire proposal was only the first step towards a peaceful settlement of all Far Eastern issues.
