VOL. LXIV, No. 78
Red Parley
Will Not Halt
POW Release
Jan. 22 Release
Called Inevitable
By WILLIAM C. BARNARD
PANUNJOM-01'-t seems a
cinch that 22,000 Chinese and
North. Korean prisoners in the
anti-Red compounds will be re-
leased after midnight Jan. 22 (Ko-
rean time).
Top authoritative sources in
Korea say it is inevitable.
"r "All this stuff now going on at
Panmunjom," one said, "is just
for show. The ,issues have been
-settled a long, long time."
THE ALLIES demand release of
the prisoners at 12:01 a.m. Jan.
23. The Reds insist they be held
while "come home" interviews are
resumed and until a Korean peace
conference can determine their
fate.
Indians guarding them main-
* tain a gentlemanly, wavering
position, irrating but not actual-
ly antagonizing either side.
It is possible Lt. Gen. K. S.-
Thimayya, under instructions from
his government, might throw his
vote to the Communist side of
the Neutral Nations Repatriation
Commission by deciding the pris-
oners should be held past the Jan.
22 date.
The- commission chairman thus
would side with the Poles and
Czechs against the Swiss and
Swedes.
* * *
IF THE REDS win such a rul-
ing, plans already have been made
for the anti-Red prisoners simply
to break out of their 55 com-
pounds in the neutral zone and
start walking south, it can be said
authoritatively,
It also can be disclosed that
the Indian troops would make no
move whatever to stop the mor
slow them.
There is one unanswered ques-
tion: Would Communist forces
move into the demilitarized zone
and southward in an attempt to
halt the prisoners?
** *
THE UNITED States 8th Army
has thought of this possibility. If
the Commufists move south, they
will march straight into Allied-gun-
fire and possible renewal of the
Korean war.
The 8th Army has made de-
tailed plans for handling south-
bound prisoners.
They will be "chanlized"
through extensive barbed wire en-
tanglements and barriers, well
marked by white tape.
"There are hostiles among you.
Weed them out.
"Keep moving."
Chinese and Koreans will go
Into temporary holding com-
pounds. From there, they will
move south in trucks andtrains.
The North Koreans will be ac-
commodated in South Korea. The
Chinese who want to go there will
be taken to Formosa.

WASHINGTON--P)-The United States disclosed last night it

Signaling that the time has arrived for another advance in the

and materials would start moving to the proving grounds in the

Mortgagees
WASHINGTON - 0P) - Sen.
Homer Capehart (R-Ind.) yes-
terday suggested a- billion-dollar
government program to help peo-
ple buy homes on 50 to 60-year
mortgages with little or no down
payments.
Sen. Capehart, chairman of the
Senate Banking Committee which
will consider President Eisenho-
er's housing proposals, advanced
what he called a "radical idea" of
making homeomers of citizens
otherwise unable to afford their
own dwellings.
s s "
HE TOLD a Congress of Indus-
trial Organizations housing con-
ference he has long been worried
about the plight of citizens who
cannot afford either a down pay-
ment on a home or "the high rents
they are forced to pay today."
Sen. Cpehart disapproved
past programs under which pub-
lie housing has been built with
federal subsidies for rent to low-
income families. He said itzwould
be better to help such families
finance their own homes.
"We could go into it on, say, a'
billion dollar basis figuring on los-
ing 200 or 300 million," Sen. Cape-
hart said.
"Even if we tool a licking fi-
nancially, because some of the
people couldn't keep up their
payments, I think we'd be better
off as a nation than with the
public housing plan. I think the
vast majority would become suc-
cessful homeowners."
Sen. Capehart said the billion
dollars might help build a million
homes, presumably by addition to
private construction capital.

With 142,000 Ousted
By The Associated Press
A new wave of layoffs hit im-
portant segments of America's
heavy industry this week.
Affected were employes of auto
makers, steel companies, railroads
and electrical manufacturers.
* * *
LAYOFFS have mounted in re-
cent weeks. Railroads have laid
off around 18,000. The textile,
farm equipment and rubber indus-
tries also have been affected.
In announcements this week,
most company spokesmen blam-
ed "adjusted production sched-
ules" or "a lack of immediate
business."
North American Aviation Inc.,
disclosing plans to lay off 1,100
at Columbia, Ohio, attributed the
action to the government's sched-
uled "stretchout" in defense con-
tracts.
THE BIGGEST layoffs this week
were in Michigan, where the num-
ber of jobless rose to 142,000. At
the Plymouth Division of Chrysler
Corp. and the Automotive Body
Briggs Division, 7,650 workers
were taken off the payrolls yester-
day.
Hudson Motor Co. sent 4,501
home. In South Bend, Ind., Stu-
debaker Corp. said it would lay
off 3,000 to 3,500 because it plans
to cut production.
In Washington, government offi-
cias predicted that unemployment
