countries on her southern border.

The full purpose of the resolu- tion was not immediately clear to delegows, but one effect of the Russian plan would be to take the Korean settlement discussions out of the assembly and into the Security Council where Russlo holds the veto. The U. N. chart- er also provides that while any problem is under discussion in the council. the assembly cannot make recommendations on it.

Another possibility was that Viahinaky might be making an attempt to sneak Chinese Com- inbo the U. N. through in door. some observers noted that it would be difficult to talk Kolun peace terms with- out participation of Red Chins.

Injected By American

The surprise Russian proposal for a special Security council meeting was rejected by Amer- ican sources here and in Wash- ington. Diplomatic authorities in Washington said such a session would worsen the prospect of peace in Korea by bringing polit- ical issues into the armistice ne- gotiations.

Vishlnsky said:

"These illegal - flagrantly ll- legal - acts of the United States. we can be quite sure. will be de- clarsd to be defensive measures against China's aggression when- ever events begin to take their course on the southern borders of China, in Thailand. Burma and Yunnan Province (of Chlna)."

He did not explain further what he meant by "events".

Missing Nfld. Hunters Found

ST. JOHN'S. .Nfld.. Jon. 3 - (CP) .. A ski-equipped rescue plane landed on an un-named

Newfoundland lake today to fly out two hunters missing since Dec. 21 but sluggish weather kept it from taking off again.

The plane will take off tomor-

row.-if weather permits. I Air Home corporal Steve Trent. a native of Athlow. 'Sa.sk., and Jack Barton, manager of the New- foundland F-lylngr--Club here, rad- ioed they were in "good condit- ion" despite days of wandering in the desolate. snow-covered barren- iands. , h .

Trent. attached to-the R. C. A. F. 103 Search and Rescue unit at nearby Tol-bay. and his pilot. com- panion had intended to hunt caribou. Their llgiht plane made a "normal forced landing" 14 miles from Thor-burn Lake. near the headwaters of Bonavists. Bay on the northeast coast,

Cause of the emergency landing was not known immediately. It was presumed their aircraft ranf into bad weather and the piiotl risked a landing rather than belngi blown over the ocean.

A. coast guard plane from American air base at Angcntia spotted Trent. and Barton early io- day near Thorburn Lake. A mes- sage was dropped by parachute. instructing them to go to a nearby lake where ice was strong enough to support a plane.
