Told 400 Are Held For 'Blood Crimes' ' Released American Airman In Report TOKYO, UP — A repatriated American airman said today a Chinese Communist officer told him two weeks ago some 400 Allied War prisoners are being held in North Korea \for “blood crimes.” Lt. James E. Gunnoe, 23, Charleston, W. Va.,> said the figure includes a “considerable number of Americans.” He said the Chinese, a field grade officer who acted as interpreter, told him the prisoners have been accused of what he called “blood crimes” —rape, stealing and war crimes. “Until I reached Panmunjom, I -was not sure they were going to turn me loose," Gunnoe said. “They told me it was possible that I would never cross the line because I was a yar criminal.” Gunnoe, who was sentenced to death 12 times during his 15 months in Communist captivity, said the Reds accused him of dropping germ bombs containing infected flies on North Korean and Chinese cities. A B-26 bomber pilot, he was among the last POWs to be released in Operation Big Switch. The airman said he signed a “confession” admitting he made germ bomb runs over Communist Korea. It was either that or stop eating, he said. Pilots who refused to “confess,” he said, had their food cut off for as much as four days at a time.

Adenauer Awaiting French Intentions ’.■ . I • Give France Time L To Ratify Pacts BONN,? Germany UP — Authoritative Sources said today Chancellor Konrad Adenauer will give* France 60 to 90 days to raflfyjthe European army and German peace pacts. If the French have not acted by then, these sources said, Adenauer cah be expected to riotify France of the final concessions he is willing to make on German rearmament and the Saar, and to recommend that unless France t moves promptly some alternative [ solution be found to West Germany's rearmament and Europe’s defenses. Probably, these sources said. Adenauer would urge the formation of a German national atmy and West Germany’s admission to the North Atlantic treaty alliance. While awaiting some indication of France’s intentions, Adenauer was busily working out final j details of his new cabinet ,with the directorate of hisj Christian Deinocratic Union, ; >• Government sources said Aden- ' auer hopes to have all key cabinet posts filled by the time he leaves on a vacation next Thursday. The chancellor is taking pains to assure West Germauy’s (neighbors he has no intention of using his powerful new parliamentary majority to dominate a federated Europe or ledd a drive to the east. His parliamentary leader. Hfrinrich von Brenton, told reporters, “it is absolutely incorrect to speak of a Germany now seeking a position of domination.” ■Both von Brentano and the (information bureau of Adenauer’s , Christian Democratis Party hastened to make it plain that (he Chancellor's expressed wish to liberate East Germany can be realized only through negotiation with Russia. “Liberation by force is out of the question," Von Brentano s4id.
