Informal Exchanges PREPARING FOR GENERAL ASSEMBLY

On Canal Zone

London, Aug. 11. Diplomatic sources sald today that current informal Anglo-Egyptian talks OF the Suez Canal Zone have covered considerable ground but that some of the chief issues still are unresolved.

Indications were that the in- formal contoets established a fortnight ago might continuc until about the end of the month before a decision is reached on whether full-dress negotiations for a settlement of the Conal Zone dispute enn be resumed.

The British view is that re- sumption of the talks must be a mutual under- preceded by standing

United Nations, Aug. 11.

The United Nations bustled with behind-the-scenes activity today as United States, British, French and Soviet delegations swung into action to work out as much agreement as possible on the Korean political con- ference before the General Assembly convenes on Monday.

As far as the United States was concerned, United Nations dele- gates looked to Washington and Denver for final decisions on what line the US delegate, Mr Henry Cabot Lodge, will pursue in these crucial pre- Assembly consultations. :

The British Minister of State, Mr Selwyn Lloyd, and the Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister, M. Andrei Vishinsky, were the first to reach the United Na- tions today.
