Threaten A Virtual Sit-Down Strike At Talks
Munsan, Feb. 28.
The Communists yesterday threatened virtual sit-down strike in Korean armistice nego- tiations unless the United Nations reversed itself. and accepted Russia as a neutral triice inspector.
"Until such time," declared North Korean General Chang Chun San, "there will be no pro- gress in these negotiations.'
The Reds made the statement in again rejecting an Allied plan to cut the number of neutral nation truce inspectors from six to four by dropping Russia from the Red list and Norway from the Allied selec- tions.
Sweden and Switzerland were the other two nevtrais nominat ed by the UN. Poland and Czechoslovakia were also chosen by the Reds.
The Russian issue
was so sharply defined that observers speculated that the next deci- sion would probably come from Washington or Moscow.
The Communist correspon dent, Wilfred Burchett, alleged that American planes dropped cardboard boxes of files, fees, crickets, spiders, ice, midges and
