Talks May Cease Again
Reds Must Accept Pakistan or Else
Panmunjom—(U.P.)-The United Nations told the Communists to 4-day to accept Pakistan as neutral custodian of Korean war prisoners or face another break-off of truce talks.
Lt. Gen. William K. Harrison, chief UN truce delegate, earlier had offered a major compromise by nominating Pakistan as caretaker country for 46,000 Chinese and North Korean prisoners unwilling to return to communism.
Pakistan was one of four Asian nations which the Communists had defined as acceptable neutrals, and when North Korean Gen. Nam II head Communist negotiator, ignored the offer, Gen. Harrison became blunt.
"The continued evasion by your side can only be considered as inspired by motives other than those of reaching an equitable agreement." Gen. Harrison told Gen. 11
"Time in these discussions is fast running out," Gen. Harrison said.
"Are you prepared to accept Pakistan as the neutral nation? If not, we have no further issue to discuss with you."
Gen. Harrison's offer came as the two sides renewed discussions following an unexplained two-day recess called by the Communists last Saturday.
In nominating Pakistan after the Communists had rejected Switzerland and Sweden as neutrals, Gen Harrison said he was acting in a "sincere effort to achieve an agreement."
"We are prepared to meet you half-way in the matter of a neutral nation," Gen. Harrison said. "We are now prepared to nominate one of the four countries which you have
At the conclusion of the tete- ate, Gen. Il began talking to Gen. Harrison about movement of all prisoners out of Korea, an old argument. The Reds repeatedly had said they would not agree to any neutral nation until the UN agreed to transport the prisoners to that country to await final disposition.
"We now nominate Pakistan, an Asian nation both neutral and competent and one of the four whose suitability you obviously implied in your question to us. Now we expect you to demonstrate your sincerity by agreeing to have this power serve as custodial neutral."
Gen. Il, who had included Pakistan with India, Burma and Indonesia as acceptable neutrals, went into a long huddle with other members of his team after Gen. Harrison had finished his statement.
The orchestra, comprised of advanced students and faculty of the School of Fine Arts, is conducted by Dean Thomas Gorton. The program will be open to the public without charge.
Soloist for the evening will be Walderma Geltch, who is retiring at the end of this year as professor of violin after 31 years on the faculty. He will be heard in "The Romance," Opus 42, by Bruch.
The orchestra will play the seldom-performed overture to "The Triumph of Time and Truth" by Handel; "Brandenburg Concerto No. 3 in G Major" by Bach; "Rhapsody for Flute and Strings" by John Podro, instructor in music theory at KU; "Eine kleine Nachtmusik" by Mozart, and a suite for chamber orchestra, "Enfants" by Florent Schmitt.
The annual music week festival, being held this week, began Sunday morning with special observances in the churches of Lawrence in the form of sermons and special music.
In the afternoon, a carillon recital was given by Dr. Pereval Price, carilloneur and professor of campanology of the University of Michigan. This was followed by "Belshazzar's Feast," presented by the 350-voice festival chorus, accompanied by the University Symphony orchestra. Clayton Krehbiel was the conductor.
Today, a special musical program was given at noon in the Eldridge Hotel by the Lawrence Rotary club. Tuesday, James will lose his guest pianist, at 10 o'clock in an annual Youth American Artist's program at 8 p.m. in Strong auditorium.

Wednesday, the University Concert course will present Robert Rousseville, tenor of opera, concert, films, operetta, and television.
