MUNSAN, Korea, Monday, Sept, 28-- The Allies offered three new proposals Sunday for breaking the long Korean armistice deadlock by giving the Communists face-saying outs on prisoner exchange. The first Red reaction was a scornful "nothing new."
The Allied plan would still let each prisoner decide whether he wanted to be repatriated, but would allow the Reds a chance to announce that "all" PW's were returned.
The U.N. Command, in presenting at Panmunjom three alternative proposals, declared that acceptance of any of them could lead to an armistice in the 28 months-old war.
While North Korean General Nam 11, senior Red delegate, tentatively rejected the plans, he left room to back down if the Red high command should decide to do so. Consultation in Pyongyang, Peiping, and possibly Moscow, was expected.
Negotiators agreed to a ten-day recess, asked by the Allies, to permit full Red study of proposals.
