Kidnapper's Execution Postponed
San Rafael, Calif., May 18.
Superior Judge Thomas Keating today ordered stay of execution for convict- author Caryl Chessman, who was scheduled to die to- morrow in the lethal gas chamber at San Quentin.
Lotts generally were now moving towards the belief that the re- fusal of the Communist powers to accept the authority of the United Nations made further discussion impossible.
But this belief was not shared by other delegations on United Nations side. These de- legations made plain that the mojority of their number were stili secking Korean pe Licment the non- or the presenting by

CROWN SEEKING COURT RULING
The question of whether an accused who has pleaded guilty in normal circumstances to a charge before a Magistrate should be allowed to withdraw that plea subsequently will be argued before the Full Court on Friday, May 28 at 10 a.m.
This morning the Crown sought the leave of the Full Court, comprising the Acting Chief Justice, Mr Justice T. J. Gould and the Puisne Judge, Mrastice C. W. Reece, to apply for an order prohibiting the Hongkong Magis- trute, Mr Poon Yan-hol, from dealing with a defendant, Yau Ngau, otherwise than by way of sentence, on the grounds that Yau was convicted of the offence with which he was charged. -
