Soviet Farley Terms
Rejected by West
BY the Associated Press

PARIS, June 9.-Britain, France
and the United States told Russia
yesterday they couldn't agree to
Big Four conference on the So
Wet Unions terms.
Deputies of the three Western
nations advised Soviet Deputy
Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko
orally that they could not agree
to a four power meeting in WASH
ington July % if they must-as
Russia insists-include the North
Atlantic treaty as one of its items
of discussion.
The Western statement was
made as a reply to Russian
note accepting the Vests pro-
posal for the July % meeting if
and this is the proviso the three
nations refuse to accept-the
treaty and American bases over
seas are brought up.
Britain's Ernest Davies, Amer
ica's Philip Jessup and Frances
Alexandra Parodi explained to Mr..
Gromyko that, though the three
powers could not waver in their
determination to keep the treaty
of the agenda, they were glad
Russia has decided to continue

known gambling, Maryland law
yers were told here yesterday.
The issue was brought up by
Assistant Prosecutor Joseph G..

was regarded as safeguard to
prevent unlawful search and seiz-

Scientists After War

Following is a partial tert OF
yesterdays testimony by Secre-
tary OF State Acheson before a
Joint Senate committee inpesti-
eating Far Eastern policy:
Senator Bridges see. in look
ing over some old reports and
newspaper clippings, and ! have
gathered that YOU once testified
that you favored a liberal govern
ment in Japan. a government In
which the Soviet Union would
have part. Is that true?
Secretary Acheson-I don't place
what you are talking about. Sem
ator.
Senator Bridges-I mean. in
discussing once a liberal govern
ment in Japan it is reported
that you favored a government in
which-the Soviet Union would
have a part.
Refers to Soviet Role.
Secretary AcheSon-I don't re-
call any such thing. and I don't
what you would mean
by the Soviet Union having q part
in the government of Japan. The
Soviet Union was one of the ma
tions which received the surrender
and Gen. Macarthur was the SUI

powers.
There was set up, by Mr.. Byrnes.
at the time of the Moscow confer
ence at the end of 1945. two insti-
tutionS which had to do with the
military occupation government
of Japan.
One was the Far East Commis-
sion. which had certain powers.
That was made up. I believe, first
of 10 nations and perhaps now Of
more than that. of which the
Soviet Union is cne.
There is an Allied council in
Japan, which was set up at the
same time as these Moscow agree
ments, on which the Soviet Union
has a representative. That coun-
Gil has never functioned because
of distractions which the Soviet
Union has imported into its pro-
cedures

could be referring to.
Senator Bridges-Perhaps that
is the reference made.
Mr.. Secretary, when the so-called
China white paper was issued
why were the IL documents which
former Ambassador Patrick J.
Hurley had referred to when he
testified before the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee in December,
1949. why were they not included
in the China white paper? Be-
cause you certainly included very
generously from other documents
in the whole case.

you will give me the place where
Gen. Hurley referred to the doc
uments, I will identify them. find
out whether they are in the

"Only q small number Of tech-
nical men of Importance were
rounded up by Russia. and it Is
not at all certain that these were
put to work effectively In the
framework Of Russian technolog-
ical development. However, Rus
sia may have had q greater need
for the more routine type Of tech

are many in Germany. On the

stressed that German technology

that it will hold a closed hearing
next Tuesday at the United States

legislation to carry out its recon-

to ban the use of the mails or in

Noting the dependence of big

The measure also would broaden

bill would extend to roulette
