FLORIDA. TUESDAY MORNING. JULY 4. 1972 46 TEN CENTS ioreas Pledge To End Armed Attacks ft Unity oj Nations CAMPAufl if is, 1 I Ila- jF 'nfflmrrnr Vr- KS0" VV Is Primary Goal SEOUL (AP) North and South Korea have held top-level meetings to discuss improved relations and reunification of the peninsula split by World War II and ravaged by the Korean war five years later, South Korea announced yesterday. Among agreements reached at meetings in Seoul and Pyongyang were those to refrain mutually from undertaking armed provocations and to install a hot line between the two capitals "in order to prevent the outbreak of unexpected military incidents," an announcement said.

Each side has accused the other recently of preparations for war, raising the specter of renewed hostilities. The three-year conflict that began in 1950 cost two million lives. Of the dead, 54,246 were Americans. Announcement of the meetings was issued simultaneously in Seoul and Pyongyang, the Communist capital. Lee Hu-rak, director of the South Korean central intelligence agency, represented his country at the talks.

He made the announcement for the Seoul government at a news conference. The announcement said both parties agreed "to establish and operate a South-North coordinating committee" to be cochaired by Lee and North Korea's Kim Young-joo, younger brother of Premier Kim Il-sung. The joint statement stressed the homogeneity of the Korean people, whose recorded history goes back to the 12th century B.C. Through a checkered political history, Korea was occupied by Japan, a vassal state of China and in 1910, as a result of the Russo-Japanese war annexed by Japan. The Allies promised Korea independence in World War II and, at war's end, it was divided into two occupation zones Russian in the North and American in the South.

The two republics were formed in 1948 when cooperation proved impossible. North Korea invaded the South in 1950 and was opposed by United Nations forces. A truce signed in 1953 retained the division of the peninsula at the 38th Parallel. The United States still maintains troops in South Korea. The joint announcement said Lee visited Pyongyang May 2-5 and talked with Kim Young-joo, director of the Organization and Guidance Department of the Pyongyang government.

North Korea's second deputy premier, Park Sung-chul, visited Seoul May 29-June 1 on Premier Kim's behalf for talks with Lee. "With the common desire to achieve peaceful unification of the fatherland as early as possible," the accouncement said, "the two sides in these talks had frank and open-hearted exchanges of views, and made great progress in promoting mutual understanding."

All To Leave FAU Post ByJANIE GOULD Post StiH WrIUr BOCA RATON Florida Atlantic University President Kenneth R. Williams yesterday announced plans to seek early retirement from the post he has held since the school was created 10 years ago. Williams, 63, said he hopes to leave his -year position by the end of the year. The state Board of Regents, which will choose a successor, is expected to act on Williams' request later this week. Williams, who has been in office longer than any of the other current presidents of state universities in Florida, said the main reason for his decision is so he can devote his remaining "active years" to Hart declined to act, saying the question of whether the state's winner-take-all primary was fair and equitable is a matter to be decided by the party convention, not by the courts.

He said the judiciary should intervene in party conflicts only when they involve a clear constitutional principle. Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey, the presidential candidate with the most to gain from splitting up the California delegates, said he approved of Hart's decision and predicted the convention would uphold the Credentials Committee ruling by "a safe margin." "This still leaves the whole question up to the convention which is its proper place," Humphrey said in a telephone interview from his home in Wave Minn. In a parallel and similar ruling delivered at the same time, Hart refused to upset the Credentials Committee's action in unseating Chicago Mayor Richard Daley and 58 other Illinois delegates to the convention.
