Injected into Saturday's unproductive meetings was a Red charge that four U. jet planes bombed and strafed a plainly-marked truce motor convoy between Kaesong and the Korean Communist capital of Pyongyang on Friday afternoon. The Communists termed it "a grave protest." Brig. Gen. William P.

Nuckols, United Nations Command spokesman, said the charge would be investigated. But he added that the Allies did not view the charge "with any more gravity than we have viewed past allegations." U. S. Marine Col. James C.

Murray, Allied liaison officer who received the Red protest, said later he did not regard it as any threat to break off the armistice talks. The Communists asserted that, despite joint guarantees of safe conduct, two trucks and a jeep constitutes illegal use of city equipment and labor? Most of the argument was between City Commissioners Ben Hawes and LeRoy Woodward who chose opposite sides of the fence. Woodward argued against strict adherence to the letter of the law in the use of the city's equipment and labor whenever such action "encourages further growth of not enough to give them a lead as War Camp No. 8 at Kangdong.

President Truman had been most anxious to get such a statement even though he was not as much concerned as some had believed in getting from Britain a pledge to join in a European army.

Both Churchill's associates and those who sat with Mr.

Truman during last week's White House talks agreed that in this major project Churchill had been successful that not since the end of the war had the men who run the two governments eliminated so many irritants or achieved such a deep understanding. Churchill came here Jan. 5. Altogether he spent about seven days in the capital and held half a dozen policy discussions with Mr. Truman.

He broke off the period of conferences to visit New York and Ottawa. His departure today will be followed by a stopover in New York until Tuesday night, when he boards the liner Queen Mary fbr the voyage home. The results of his mission may be summed up in terms of what Churchill got, what he gave, and what he did not get. And American officials feel that the record should be read in terms of his pre-conference declaration that he was seeking no single result so much as closer overall Anglo-American relations. Here is the way the record looks on major points: Churchill got 1.

A guarantee of the right to purchase one million tons of U. S. steel this year in a deal assuring this country of Malayan tin and increased quantities of aluminum. Actually, with Britain's dollar shortage, the U. S.

will have to home. The Prime Minister's 11th hour compromise acceptance of an American naval command in the Atlantic and his endorsement of U. S. policies in the Far East seemed certain to draw sharp questioning wlien he faces Parliament to account for his Washington mission. His last Official act before boarding the noon train for New York was to shake hands with 49 wounded Korean War veterans at Union Station.

He stood before them for a moment and then said, "You will always remember you played your part in a great and honorable world event." From the parking court where the veterans were gathered the Prime who had told President Truman goodbye yesterday, marched with the slow, heavy pace of his 77 years across Union Station Concourse and past the iron barred gate to a private car assigned him. British Ambassador Sir Oliver Franks and Secretary of State Dean Acheson said their formal farewells aboard the train. On the back platform Churchill himself called "bye, bye" to scores of persons who had gathered behind ropes and the grilled fence. He held up his fingers in the famous sign that was his trademark in Wrorld War n. Some watching his departure wondered whether it might be the end of his last journey to Washington where on many occasions over a decade he has mightily influenced the course of history.

This is part of the overall closer understanding that grew up in the talks.

Churchill gave 1. An endorsement of U. S. Far Eastern policies which practically ends the long split over the issue of Chinese recognition and holds promise of close Anglo-U. S.

cooperation on future Korean developments, Japanese revival and security for Southeast Asia. Critics of Anglo-American cooperation in Parliament and apparently some segments of the government and the British public have long been afraid Britain had to act as a brake on American impulses to "run (wild" in the Far East. Churchill received detailed assurances from Mr. Truman that the American government is at least anxious as the British to achieve peace and prevent the spread of the Korean War. In explaining the new line of British foreign policy in the Orient, he may pass on these assurances.

2. Agreement on an Atlantic command under an American admiral. For the man who once said he had not come His Majesty's first minister to preside over the liquidation of the empire this presumably was Churchill's most difficult assignment here. It symbolizes Britain's waning power in world politics, the fact that Britain's ebbing influence in the Middle East. This, however, is still an open problem.

Churchill's plea to Congress for "token forces" of American troops to help guard the Suez Canal fell on stony ground but conceivably could still bear fruit. 2. Agreement on a standardized rifle for the British and American Armies. This issue was temporarily compromised with a decision to go on looking for a rifle acceptable to both countries. 3.
