By NATE POLOWETZKY MUNSAN. Korea. Oct. 24 (Wednesday) - (AP) - The Com- munists today accepted the Pan- munjom agreement for renewal of Korean armistice talks. The Red and Allied five-man delegations agreed to meet at if A. M. tomorrow (9 P. M. E.S.T. Wednesday) at the new conference site of Panmunjom. It will be the first meeting since Aug. 22. One day later the Reds broke off the uiscussions after charging an Allied plane had bombed and strafed the old con- fcrence site of Kaesong.

The Panmunjom agreement set- ting up new security rules was signed Monday by Allied and Red liaison officers and ratified a few hours later by the Allied truce del- egation. The Rcda delayed their approval 48 hours. '

Their ratification came after Chinese Communist leader Mao Tze-Tung had called on the United states to settle the Korean way by peaceful means.

A Peiping radio English lang- uage broadcast quoted Mao as say- ing: t "The great struggle to resist Am- erican aggression and aid Korea is now continuing. It must be car- ried on until the us. governmegt is willing to settle the questi n peacefully."

Consider U.K. Election Outcome Unpredictable

By R. B. MacLurliin LONDON. Oct. 23 -- (Reuters) -- British general elections are notoriously unpredictable affairs. hilt Winston Churchill's Conserv-

ative followers are confident of victory this time. Last-minute foreign developments, however,

could make the Oct. 25 election outcome a toss-up.

At the last general election in February. 1950. a decided swing to the right reduced the Labor Gov- crnmcni's majority from 136 to six. In the 20 months which have since elapsed. Conservatives claim that swing: has continued.

They said it has probably beeri accelerated by Labor's difficulties over rearmament. the cost of liv- ing and such crises as the Iran- ian oil situation and Egypt's at- tempt to oust British troops from the Suez Canal zone.

On this basis. according to right-wing opinion, the Conserv- atives should have gained suffic- ient new support to wipe out the narrow Labor majority and as-
