throughout the world that there Is a possibility of peace In Korea The first move for possible peace talks was made by Jacob Malik Soviet representative at the UN US Ambassador Alan Kirk later called upon Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko In an attempt to get a clarified version of Malik’s bid Kirk reported that Gromyko suggested that in the first stage negotiations tor a truce should ba conducted by military representatives In tha field with political and territorial questions left tor second stage disposition Then acting on Instructions from Washington Gen Matthew B commander of tha allied armed forces broadcast proposals to Rldgway the Reds for a meeting aboard th Danish hospital ship Jutlandia In Wonsan harbor In North Korea After 29 hours of waiting the Communists answered tha broadcasts with a proposal for a meeting at Kaesong just below the old Korean boundary on the 38th parallel They auggested the meeting be held tween July 10 and 15 No official reaction to the Communist proposal was immediately available Most observers however believed the delay as proposed by the Reds was a face saving device so Important In the Orient But the Communist reply was an Indication that the Chinese and North Koreans desire peace The 10 day delay will also permit the Chinese and North Korean leaders to seek further contact with Moscow As expected the Communists made propaganda use of Gen Ridgways proposed peace talks Communist broadcasts began to pound away at the line that the allies asked'for peace talks because the “armed aggression ef the United Nations forces has ended In failure" There was one other Indication that the talks may not be fruitless The Communists failed to mention their repeated demands of admission to the United Nations and control of Formosa as a price of peace A sincere desire for peace remain uppermost In the minds of every American from home town to the largest city Whatever the result of the peaoe talks it must be an honorable peace before it will be acceptable to the American people And it must be made clear to every American that a Korean settlement: will not Justify a slowdown in thia nation’ defense belief
