Tannual conference which
opens today at Scarborough can be expected to provide. a sharp contrast to last week's Socialist
rally at Morecambe. There will be no clashing of personalities and no presence of a rebel group which made the Labour Party conference 80 explosive. The solid unity of the Tories concerning party leadership and funda- mental policies is assured before the conference con- vanes. Moreover, the..dele- gates have good reason to feel satisfied with the ac- complishments of the Government, both in domes- tic and foreign affairs.

EXPLAINS UN ACTION
AT PANMUNJOM
Washington, Oct. 8.
The United States Secretary of State, Mr Dean Acheson, said today. the United Nations would not "trade in the lives of men” to gain an armis- tice in Korea.
In a prepared statement read to his weekly Press conference, Mr Acheson said the Korean truce talks were recessed but not terminated.
"We have said and will continue to say that we shall not com- promise on the principle that a prisoner should not be forced to return against his will. For us to weaken in our resolve would constitute an abandonment of the principles fundamental to this country and the United
Nations.
"We shall not trade in the lives of men. We shall not forcibly deliver human beings into Communist hands.”
