Armistice Talks Reopen Tomorrow

MUNSAN, Korea, (AP)—Allied and communist negotiators will re-open Korean armistice talks tomorrow. They will tackle first the knotty problem of where to establish a buffer zone.

The five-man delegations will meet at Panmunjom, a roadside village six miles east of Red-held Kaesong where the search for a cease-fire agreement was suspended Aug. 23 by the Reds.

Panmunjom is accessible to each side without having to travel through enemy territory. The tiny town now has the appearance of an American carnival. Armistice activities are housed in circus-like tents. Huge colored balloons and searchlights ring the conference area to warn warplanes away from the neutral zone.

Resumption of the conference talks was made possible when the communists Wednesday ratified security ground rules drafted by U.N. and communist liaison officers in 12 meetings at Panmunjom since Oct. 10.
