...because the U.N. holds many more prisoners, the U.N. handed over some 2.700 Communists daily. Some of them were litter cases, too. Obviously under orders. Chinese returnees solemnly ripped up their newly issued uniforms and rolled in the dirt, to present as dismal a picture as possible for their propaganda photographers. The North Koreans threw canteens, shoes, crutches and clothing at U.N. roster officers...

Last week, when Frank Noel reached Panmunjom in a group of released prisoners, his unsought "scoop" came...

There he tried to conquer Austria for the Nazis "peacefully," by organized sabotage and propaganda. After four years, Hitler stopped Von Papen's slow choke with the velvet glove and swung his iron fist. Although he says Hitler had promised him not to use force in Austria, Von Papen shared the "general intoxication" of the Anschluss and was awarded the Gold Medal of the Nazi Party for his efforts...
