RUSSIANS BELIEVED KEEPING DOOR OPEN FOR PEACE IN KOREA United Nations delegate's cancellation of passage

Lake Success, July 11.

The Soviet delegate to the United Nations, Jacob Malik, cancelled his passage for home today amid indications that Russia is keeping the door open for a peace mave in Korea.

Mr. Molik long ago had announced his intention of spending home leave in Russia. He cancelled reservations for his party aboard the Polish liner Batory, due to sail today.

There were growing indications that a genuine peace move might emerge from the exchange of diplomatic notes now in progress botwoon Bri- tain and Russia. Britain asked Russia why the Kremlin had not re- plied to London's note paralleling one from Washington asking the Soviet to use its influence to halt the fighting in Korea.
