C.-The A merican Red Cross has urged a massive expression of Indigna tion over the treatment of U. S« prisoners held by the North Vietnamese, it called on the A rnerican people to write direct to the president of tlie Demo cratic Republic of North Viet nam to express concern about Hanoi's failure to give captur ed U. S. military personnel the benefits of the Geneva Conven tions. According to latest Depart ment of Defense figures, 413 Americans are known to be prisoners of war and 918 others are missing and believed cap tured. Pointing out that the North Vietnamese are signatory to the Geneva Conventions, Red Cross national headquarters here said such a public outcry might do much to ensure that American prisoners will re ceive the humane treatment cal led for in the Conventions. It urged that appeals be addres sed to; Office of the President, Democratic Republic of North. Vietnam, Hanoi, North Vietnam. An airmail letter weighing less than one-half ounce takes 25 cents in postage, the Red Cross said. Meanwhile, the American Red Cross is continuing to urge Red Cross societies in all parts of the world to intercede in be- half of the U. $. prisoners with the Red Cross Society of North Vietnam and to ask that their respective governments take similar action with the North Viet name se go ver nm ent, In an American Red Cross spon sored resolution passed without a dissenting vote by 77 governments and 91 national Red Cross societies, the Interna tional Conference of the Red Cross In Istanbul last month urged that all prisoners-of-war be given the benefits and pro tection of the Geneva Conven tions. The Geneva Conventions call for all prisoners to be prompt ly identified; afforded an ade quate diet and medical care; permitted to communicate with other prisoners and the ‘‘'ex terior"; promptly repatriated if seriously sick or wounded; and at all times be protected from abuse or reprisals. The Con ventions also state that a neu tral intermediary, such as the all-Swiss International Com mittee of the Red Cross, be given free access to prisoners and their places of detention.
