WASHINGTON - P) - Secre-

a Communist agreement to an ar-
mistice in Korea.
He challenged the Kremlin to
meet President Eisenhower's "true
peace offensive" with peaceful ac-
tion and to abandon its conspira-
cy to overthrow "every genuinely

Union Opera executive committee
including the newly-created sen-
ior post of road show manager.
Deadline for committee chair-
manship petitions to be handed in

UN To Begin

Red Prisoners
Riot; Four Killed
By The Associated Press
The UN and the Communists
yesterday agreed to resume full-
scaleKorean armistice talks Fri-
day in a move that could lead to
the end of nearly three years of
grim fighting on this tiny Asian
peninsula.
The Reds said 30 Americans and
12 Britons will be among the 100
disabled prisoners of war they will
return to the Allies at Panmunjom
today in an historic pre-armistice
exchange of captives, starting at
7 p.m.
UN LIAISON officers suggested
to the Red liaison group at Pan-
munjom yesterday the stalled
truce talks be re-opened on Wed-
nesday.
The Communists said they
would prefer the April 24 date,
and thehUN group accepted.
Time of the meeting was set for
9 p.m. Friday.
Rear Adm. John C. Daniel, Chief
UN liaison officer, told corres-
pondents after the 20-minute
meeting.
"Again we have taken the init-
iative and requested an earlier
date than the Communists could
meeting:
HE SAID the groups did not dis-
cuss matters on which the UN
command had requested clarifica-
tion in a letter recently.
The armistice talks were sus-
pended last Oct. 8 after more than
a year of deadlock over the issue
of exchanging war prisoners-able
bodied prisoners, not the sick and
wounded on whom agreement was
reached this month in six days of
negotiations.
THE REDS said at a staff offit
cers meeting that in addition to
the 30 Americans and 12 Britons,
they will return to the Allies to-
morrow: 50 South Koreans, four
Turks, one Canadian, one South
African, one Filipino and one
Greek.
In return for the 100 Allied
POWs, the Reds will get 500
Communist POWs today. In all,
the Reds have agreed to release
600 sick and wounded Allied
soldiers, including 150 Americans
and other non-Korean nationals,
at the rate of 100 a day.
As the time neared for starting
the exchange of sick and wounded
POWs and the date was set for
starting up the stalled truce talks,
Communist frontline' propaganda
loudspeakers blared out that the
Korean war would end June 20.
Meanwhile, chanting, rock-hurl-
ing North Korean prisoners in
eight compounds staged a riot at
Yoncho Island Friday night, forc-
ing Allied guards to fire shotguns
to restore order when vomiting
tear gas and concussion grenades
failed.
The UN prisoner of war com-
mand, in announcing the latest
outbreak of violence yesterday,
said four prisoners were killed and
45 hospitalized.
From Seoul came reports that
American and Belgian troops of
the U. S. Third Division smashed

tack along a two-mile front in yes-
