Polish Bishop. TCOnfe'sses” To Spying For The U.S.A.

LONDON. (Reuters)-A 58-year- old Roman Catholic bishop. who spent two years in a Polish Com. munist prison awaiting trail. was brought into a Warsaw Courtroom Monday and-very slowly-he re- ttttcd a detailed "confession" of spying for the United Bintes.

On trail with Msgr. Cseslaw Kaczmarek were three priests and a mm. and of these the bishop said: "I led them astray and I repent for it."

Strange Healtatlon

In the recorded extracts of the treason trial session played by Warsaw radio, Bishop Kacz- norek's voice was filled with s. sirzlilgo, deliberate hesitation. He zpoke each word of abject repent- mce slowly. pausing often. in the mcnmg session of Poland's first Mg political trial since Etalin died.

Prisoners

Feared They Were Being Sent To Comuiunisis

MUNSAN. (AP) - Angry. rock- hurling anti-Communist Chinese prisoners balked Monday at being turned over to Indian custody" in the Korean neutral zone and some became hysterical when they thought they were being sent back to the Communists.

Indian custodial troops restored order without bloodshed.

An additional 2,000 Chinese and North Korean prisoners will be sent to the neutral zone today. United Nations command offi- cers. handling the mass transfer of 14.700 Chinese and almost 0,000 North Koreans from Allied prison camps to stockades in the neutral zone, said it took four hours to get 260 Chinese prisoners into the camp Monday.

Another 260 stoned Red ob- servers and grappled with Indian guards.

Became Hysterical

Col. Edward H. Parr of Wash- ington, D. C, said "several truck loads became hysterical and some prisloncrs were jumping out of the tnicks when they thought .79 were going north."

Farr said the prisoners thought they were the first to be taken to the camp. To convince them that 3.000 other Chinese already were inside the stockades. UN officers had the trucks driven along the outside the compounds so the new men could see the other prisoners and Nationalist Chinese flags fly-

charges to the people wherever possible.

It was on this basis that he explained to the 100 delegates attending that the need for
