LOST IN CHINA
After all the fuss over possible POWs in Russia and Vietnam,
a U.S. Senator just back from Pyongyang says hundreds of American
servicemen captured during the Korean War were sent to China and
never returned. Bob Smith, a New Hampshire Republican, vice
chairman of the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA Affairs,
said, "Every single Korean official we talked to confirmed" that
U.S. prisoners of war had been sent to China. "They weren't
returned," he said. Beijing has repeatedly denied that China
kept any American POWs except for 21 who asked to stay.
