India Envoy Interceding For Yanks
A Calcutta, India newspaper said today the government's ambassador in Peiping has told Communist authorities how bitterly Americans feel about the unjust imprisonment of American airmen in China as "spies." The Calcutta Amrita Bazar Pat-rika, said the envoy also had asked for full details leading to the trial and sentencing of the uniformed Americans.
It was emphasized that the United States did not ask Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, who recently visited Red China, to intercede, but that he acted in line with his self-proclaimed policy of soothing international tensions.
Pope Has Cold Says Vatican
Vatican City —(U,P)— Vatican sources said today Pope Pius XII has a mild cold and a disturbing cough and is being encouraged to take exercise.
These sources said the Pope was walking unaided, but with a person standing near his side to prevent him from taking a bad fall.
Thousand of pilgrims assembled in St. Peters square thought they saw the Pope appear at his bedroom window at noon and unleashed a deafening chorus of "Viva Il Papa" (long live the Pope).
But Vatican officials said later the figure they saw at the window was not that of the Pope.
Authoritative sources said the Pope is still very weak and not out of danger, even though he now acting and retaining semi-solid food.
They said there is always the danger of pneumonia or other complications when aged persons fall ill. His heart remains in good condition, these authorities said, but his pulse fluctuates and is not entirely satisfactory.
Four doctors now attending the Pope plan to see him today or tomorrow to study his progress.
The Daily Mirror, which has the largest circulation of any English language newspaper in the world, called on former Prime Minister Clement Attlee to send a message to Peiling requesting freedom for the prisoners.
The envoy was instructed to explain to the Red Chinese that their jailing of the Americans, under trumped-up charges, was making it difficult for President Eisenhower to answer angry demands for harsh action against the Peiping regime.
Direct action was being taken by the United States and its 15 war allies in the United Nations today. They put up for debate in the General Assembly a resolution asking Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold to negotiate with the Reds. Mr. Hammarskjold was given this task because the imprisoned Americans fought in Korea under the UN flag and should have been repatriated last year.
Taipei-Nationalist Chinese commandos raided a small island near Quemoy, which lies only five miles off the China mainland, at dawn. They captured 14 sleeping Communist Chinese soldiers and took them back to Quemoy for questioning. Authorities in the reported shipment of MG-killing F-86 Sabrejet fighter planes this morning. They said shipments would continue until three squadrons have been assembled.
Other international developments: Paris - Premier Pierre Mendes-France has told ambassador to Moscow Louis Jose, who is returning to the Soviet Union today, to speed up France's efforts to arrange a big four conference. The United States and Britain have not taken any diplomatic action.

Confinement in the Mediterranean reduces the fleet's "mobility," Mr. Smith said.
terrorism in Tunisia appeared near its end. Almost all of the bandits have accepted a French offer to surrender and lay down their arms in exchange for their freedom.
The following students will appear in a German nativity play sponsored by the German department, to be presented at 8 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 15 in Fraser theater.
"Yet the organization of which he (Montgomery) is deputy supreme commander presents a requirement for the 6th fleet with its heavy air attack capability to remain in the Mediterranean," Mr. Smith said. "We in the Navy comply with this requirement, but in doing so, we realize that the very mobility which Montgomery stresses as being essential is reduced by forcing the fleet to operate in narrow waters in order to be able to strike land targets which apparently cannot be reached by land-based aircraft of the NATO forces."
