98 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Thursday, July 9, 1958 Camp Ready Whe BOSS Canadian Press Staff Writer IN KOREA (CP)--The lull in armistice negotiations is having no effect on preparations for the re- ception of Commonwealth prison- ers of war. It is expected that the exchange of prisoners will begin a week after an armistice goes into effect. Still hopeful that the present impasse will be resolved, Commonwealth authorities are determined every- thing will be ready for the ex- change whenever it comes. A Canadian camp is being trans- formed into the main reception centre for the approximately 1,200 Britons, Australians and Cana- dians expected in the exchange. A total of 23 Canadians are listed as missing, of whom at least 20 now are known to be prisoners of war. Almost two years ago work was begun on the original Britannia camp in the Commonwealth divis- ion area as the prisoner repatria- tion centre. As hopes for an arm- istice diminished it was torn down.
