Reds Agree To Discuss Resumption Of

Kaesong Talks

Tokyo, Sept. 23. ·

.

The Communists today agreed to send repre-

sentatives to the battered village of Pan Mun Jom Trapped In

at 10 a.m. on Monday to discuss a resumption of the Korean truce talks with United Nations officers.

The Communist reply made it clear that the Reds will continue to insist on an investigation of their charges that the Allied violated the Kae- song neutral zone-a demand already rejected by Gen. Ridgway. The Communist reply was not expected to delay a resumption of the truce talks if other conditions are mutually satisfactory. The Reds proposed to let the question of "truce viola- tions" wait until formal talks are resumed, rather than to discuss them at the liaison meeting.

THE KING'S CONDITION: Return From DOCTORS ISSUE A SECOND BULLETIN Thousands Sing National

Anthem Outside

Palace

London, Sept. 23.

At 8.15 tonight, just nine hours after the operation was performed on King George VI, this new medical bulletin came out from Buckingham Palace:

"The King's condition" continues to be as satisfactory as can be ex- pected."

An earlier medical bulletin, said "anxiety must remain for some days" but His Majesty's "Immediate post-operative condition is satisfac- tory."

Eight physicians and surgeons signed the bulletin.

A crowd of 5,000 sang the National Anthem outside Buckingham Palace when a bulletin was posted on the Palace gates announcing that King George had been operated on and that his condition immediately afterwards was "satis- factory."

"A lone woman's voice began the first line of "God Save The King" as the throng broke through Police cordons and pressed close to the railings to rend the bulletin.

In an instant it was taken up by men, women, and children, and by Service- men from many foreign countries who had whited throughout the chilly Autumn'

the altogether surprising; despite decisive vote of confidence which the Menzies-Fadden party received from the country at the last general elections, The referendum cannot be regarded as a denial by the people of the political mandate given to the Menzies' Govern- ment two years ago. The voters chose to make the request for an amend, ment to the constitution a national issue, and in so doing demonstrated their ability to distinguish between narrow party politics and national interesta. Mr Menzies has expressed dlamay at the result, yet he could hardly have been unprepared for it. Not only had a High Court judgment been delivered against the constitutional legality of legislation which Mr Menzies had previously passed through the House of Representatives, but the State parliaments also refused, to give their approval to the outlawing measure. There were, therefore, reasons believe that popular sentiment would be adverso to Mr Menzies' appeal. Nevertheless, there will be no danger. of the outside world (other than the Communist-ruled countries)' mis- understanding the decision of the Australians on this subject.
