Urges IMt
Control
By EDDY.OILMORE
GENEVA IM French Foreign
Minister Oeorges Bidault-told the
IB-nation Korean conference Thurs
day Korea must be reunited
through United NaUons-controlled
elections. .
Speaking for the first time In
the Korean discussion, Bidault
said reunification should be guar
anteed by an all-Korean commis
sion in which both North and South,
Korea would be represented In pro
portion to their population,
Bidault called upon the North
Koreans to show a sincere desire
for the creation of a united, demo
cratic and independent Korea. He
said the United Nations is the
most qualified organization to des
ignate observers to watch the pro
posed elections.
Replying to Communist allega
tions that the United Nations had
become "accomplice of an aggres
sor country." Bidault declared
such a statement is neither truth
ful nor provable. He added:
"To accept this would be in ef
fect to deny on our part Uie very
principles of Uie international or-
ganization in which we have place
our hopes and in the service of
which we have placed our forces."
roe French minister said that
it was evident North Korea had
committed Uie aggression by sud
denly penetrating the territory of
its neighbor in armed force with-.
out previous recourse to any pro
cedure of conciliation or arbitra
tion and without any warning.
Bidault said he wanted to set
forth two principles which the
French delegation considers funda
mental: "L No project on Korea's unifi
cation is conceivable if It does not
include a real, effective guarantee
that all representation of the Ko
rean people within the common
organs which might be Instituted
will be proportional to the num
bers of citizens consulted to each
part of the country.
. 2. It will be extreme! neces
sary, if these elections can bo con
sidered as valid, that the condi
tions of the freedom of ballot be
verified and , attested by neutral
observes endowed with, "rfft-t t
powers of control." .
Earlier, the IS nations which
fought under the United Nations
uag in &orem wci reponcu w
have considered at a private, ses
sion the question of wiadina; up
the Korean phase of the Geneva,
conference.
Top diplomats of the IS met for
more than an hour to work out
plans for bow and when to write
off this part of the conference as
a failure. There was no immediate
word as to whether they actually
decided on a cutoff date. But in
formed Western sources said the
18 were generally agreed there
was no possibility of a negotiated
setUement with Uie Communists of
the Korean problem at this time.
