said
that

In

Prime
Minister
Pandit
Nehru
of
India,
in
a
broadcast
bristling
with
criticism
of
the
United
States
policy
In
Asia,
called
tonight
for
a
conference
of
major
powers
to
discuss
world
problems
"instead
of
"
talking
to
each
other
across
thousands
of

'It
is
clear
that
enough
has
been
said
on
both
sides
for
negotiation
in
a
conference
to
be
the
next
fruitful
step,"
Nehru
said.
He
contended
that
the
Amerl-
"
i
can
proposal
to
name
Commun-
ist
China
as
aggressor
in
Korea
could
not
lead
to

(This
policy
has
been
backed
by
both
houses
of
United

Congress.)
"It
can
only
lead
to
intensification
of
conflict
and
might,
perhaps,
close
the
door
to
any
attempt
at
solution
by
negotia
tion.
It
is
a
tremendous
responsibility
for
any
person
to
take
such
a
step.
At
no

should
the
door
be
closed

if

close

we
also

"

'
With
reference
to

opposition
to
seating
Red

Nehru
said:
"For
the

year
we
have
persistently
urged
the
new
China

given
a
place
in

councils
of

This
has

There

travelling

according
to
Lee
Sam
(Tom
Lee),
well
known
Chinese
business
man
of
Prince
Rupert,
who
is
back
in
the
city
after
a
year
and
a
half
in
his
native
city
of
Konmung,
about
200
miles
in
land
from
Hong
Kong.
"All
they
ask
you
are
a
few
simple
questions,"
he
says.
Mr.
Lee
indicates
that
there
is
much
exaggeration
regarding
the
freedom
of
movement.
He
says
that
life
goes
In
in
central
China
much
the
same
as
usual
under
the
Communist
regime.
Around
his
native
city,
rice
crops
have
been
good
and
no
more
than
usual
hardship
is
to
be
noticed.
Mr.
Lee
went
in
before
the
Communists
marched
in
and
spent
nine
months
there
under
the
Red
regime.
He
came
out
by
the
ordinary
means
of
travel
to
Hong
Kong
and
returned
from
there
last
week.
