In Iran Oil Dispute
Emergency Session Set;
Four Tonkers Allowed
To Sail From Abudun
By III. As.oeiated Pres.

THE HAGUE, The Netherlands,
June 23.-The World Court today
called an emergency session next
Saturday for its judges. including
a Russian, to hear Britain's ap-
plication for a virtual injunction
against Iran In the oil nationalist
ton dispute.
Britain yesterday asked the
court to indicate interim meas
ures of protection of the rights of
the government of the United
Kingdom" in Iran.
The application, made public
today, said the matter was of
extreme urgency" because if the
Iranian government pursues its
present policy the "grayest dam
age" is likely to be done to

Iran cannot replace British
managers and technicians by re-

British declared, and said the ex-
tremely difficult and dangerous
operations require extraordinary
control and team work.

Found in West Africa;
All 40 Aboard Dead
Pan American Plane
Located on Mountain
so Miles From Monroviu
BY The A.seeiaisd Press

MONRoVIA. Liberia. June 23.-
Liberian natives found the charred
wreckage and human dead OF the
Pan American Constella-
tion Great Republic today near
the peak Of small mountain
so miles northeast of Monrovia.
A company spokesman said there
were no survivors among the 81
and nine crewmen.
Some of the bodies were burned
beyond recognition.
From Roberts Field, the Mon
rovia airport which Americans
built as a military base in World
War II, came radioed details of
the end of the hunt for the four
engined giant which lost its bear
ings and vanished in a drizzling
rain early Friday while en- route
from johannesburg to New York.
Bush Runners Find Plane.
Bush runners located the plane
4 miles southeast Of the inland
village of Sanoghiejn and 48 miles
north-northwest of Roberts Field,
toward which it was cropping when
the end came.
They went to their chief with
the news. The chief reported to
the Lutheran mission school Of
nearby Totota. The mission school
relayed the report to Roberts
Field.
A United States BIT, one of
the air-sea rescue units dispatched
for the vast aerial hunt, made a
run over the mountain, about
1900 feet high.
It's crew said the plane had
burned and only the tail assem-
blage was visible. Even their pre-
liminary report said it was doubt
full there were any survivors.
CA Pan American spokesman
in New York said a Pan Amer
ican DC-3 identified the re-
mains of Flight 151"-the COM
pany designation for the run)
Eighteen of these aboard were
Americans, including the nine
member crew headed by Capt.
Frank J. Crawford. 38, of Hunt
ington Station, N. Y.
Doctors and nurses in ambu-
lances and jeeps were dispatched
at once but it was expected they
would take four hours to reach
the location from Monrovia.
The plane was to have picked
UP 13 passengers at Roberts Field
here for various destinations.
The plane left Accra, on the
African gold coast 800 miles to the
east. and reported at 2::45 am.
yesterday that it expected to land
here in half an hour.
No further word was heard
from it.

Senator'S Study
Tax Relief in
Lower Brackets
Unmarried Persons
Especially in Need of
Aid, George Says
By ]. A. O'Leoy


The Senate may try to find some
way to ease the burden on in
dividuals in the low and middle
income groups before it passes the
House-approved $72 billion tax
bill.
Without committing himself to
any particular changes, Chairman
George of the Senate Finance
Committee said yesterday:
"The pressing problem is to ad-
just low and middle income rates.
especially on unmarried individ-
uals."
There were indications also that
it may be October / before mill
lions OF wage earners begin feeling
the new taxes through payroll
Withholding. The House bill i'm
posed a new 1912 per cent defense
tax on all individuals, to start
September for wage earners.
Millikin Asks Thorough Study.
Other developments yesterday
were:
l. Senator Millikin of Colorado,
ranking Republican on the FL
nance Committee, joined in calling
for a thorough study of the House
measure, and added, "I don't think
this is going to be a me too, yes,
yes proposition in the Senate"
2. Senator johnson, Democrat.
of Colorado. also a Finance mem
ber, recognized the need for about
81 billion in new taxes, but said
he thought they should not take
effect until January l, 1852. The
House bill made corporation in
|creaseS retroactive to last January,
and voted to start the increase on
individuals in September.
Senator George revealed yes
terday he has reached the con-
clusion Congress ought to take a
-FOUR to six-week recess after it
acts on appropriations, economic
controls and foreign aid. putting
of final Senate action on the tax
bill until October.
Skeptical Of Major Economies.
The Georgia Democrat is ex-
pected to make such a recon-
mendation when the Senate Dem
ocrass hold a party conference
Tuesday morning to map a pro-
gram for the rest of the year.
II the recess is decided upon it
will determine the starting date
for the new taxes.
Even the $7.2 billion revenue
bill falls $2.8 billion short of the
administrations request, but key
members in both parties have
called for cuts in spending to
make up the rest.
Senator George called for a Sc
billion slash in appropriations.
An economy drive on that scale
would pave the way for a smaller
tax bill. but most observers are
skeptical over the outlook for any
such cut in the budget.
While the economy bloc has
been fairly successful in trimming
the two appropriation bills consid-
cred thus far-Labor-Federal Sc
curity and Independent Offices
the bulk Of the budget total will
be in the 500 billion defense bill
and the $8.5 billion Foreign Aid
measure.
Wilson and Johnson Invited.
In any event, Senator George
made it clear yesterday that his
committee wants to survey the
whole economic outlook for 1853
as well as 1852 before it acts on
the tax bill.
To that end, he has asked

Propaganda Seen;
Truman Delays
Speech Release
By John w. Hiqhtower.


The State Department declared
last night that the United States
is ready to play its part in end
ing the fighting in Korea If the
|cease-fire suggestion by Russia S
Jacob Malik lis more than propa-
ganda."
A State Department statement
issued after several hours of con-
sultation that indirectly included
President Truman and high De-
fense Department authorities was
frankly skeptical of Mr.. Malik's
sincerity. It declared that the
tenor Of his remarks" again raises
the question as to whether this is
more than propaganda"
That the Malik statement
stirred more than skepticism was
indicated by White House action
in deferring release to the press
copies of the speech President
Truman is to make at Tullahoma,
1enQ., tomorrow.
The White House had planned
earlier in the day to distribute
the text last night but said later
that it hadn't "jelled yet"
There was some speculation
that MIR. Truman wanted to study
carefully the Malik proposal be-
fore releasing the speech.
Skepticism Displayed.
Capitol Hill reaction to the
Malik proposal showed a strong
tinge of skepticism in view of
Russia's past actions. but several
Congress members indicated they
felt the proposal still should have
attentive consideration.
In effect, the State Department
statement challenged Mr.. Malik
land the Soviet government now to
come forward with specific ideas
for arranging a cease-fire, being
assured Of the cooperation Of
the United States In any demon
Istrably sincere peace effort. Re-
ferring to what MIR. Malik said,
the State Department bluntly de-
clared:
"If it is more than propaganda,
adequate means for discussing an
end to the conflict are available. !"
Press Officer Lincoln White who
issued the statement said that
this could be taken as an obvious
reference to the presence in New
York of Ambassador Warren Aus
tin and other U. N. government
representatives who could receive
peace suggestions.
What created the American
Governments deep suspicion Of
propaganda-making rather than
Ipeace-making by the Russian dele
gate was the fact that he had
spoken out publicly rather than
under the cover of diplomatic
secrecy. leading to an assumption
that he was more interested in
public opinion than in govern
mental action.
Embassies Notified.
Mr.. White issued this state
ment after the State Department
notified friendly embassies it
planned to make its position
know:
IF Mr.. Malik's broadcast means
that the Communists are now
willing to end the aggression In
Korea. we are, as we have always
been, ready to play our part in
bringing an end to hostilities and
in assuring against their resunp-
ton.
But the tenor of Mr.. Malik's
speech again raises the question
as to whether this is more than
propaganda. If it is more than
propaganda adequate means for
discussing an end to the conflict
are available"

sultation which produced this Of
fetal reaction were Assistant Sec

Text Of MoIik's Proposal for Truce in
Korea. Poee AT
States is ready to do its share if
Mr.. Malik's statement sis more
than propaganda"
The Russian United Nations de-
legate'S proposal was the first
Russian peace bid for Korea not
hedged with conditions favorable
to~Red China.
1t was met with wary skepticism
In Washington, but with every
indication it will get serious study.
News of the broadcast reached
European capitals late at night
on a week end and there was a
dearth of comment from their
statesmen.
u. N. Comment Reserved.
U. N. delegation heads here re-
served comment until they could
get guidance from their capitals.
Even as Mr.. Malik was speaking
here, the Peiping Communist radio
was declaring that their army
must wipe out the enemy's man
power" in Korea, not just drive
the armies of the peninsula.
Mr.. Malik's new line--if it turns
out to be new-had not yet reached
Mao Tze-tung, Red China's leader.
His speech-unusually short for
any Russian policy statement
left a number of questions un-I
answered. The chief one was
whether he could speak effectively
for the Chinese Communists.
Mr.. Malik said the belligerents
on both sides should take part in
discussions for an armistice and
withdrawal of troops of both sides
from the 38th Parallel.
Belligerents Not Specified.
Mr.. Malik did not specify who
he thought the belligerents were.
U. N. spokesmen said they as
sumed he meant the Chinese and
North Korean Communists on one
side and the U. N. forces on the
other.
His high policy statement, the
first program speech he has ever
made on a United State radio
network, was contained in a
broadcast of IA minutes and 25
seconds recorded for U. N. week
ly program Price of Peace" )" He
was the series, 18th speaker.
U. N. delegation heads in New
York began a quick study of the
English version of the statement
which Mr.. Malik read for the
transcribed broadcast.
Mr.. Malik devoted much of his
speech to attacks on the Western
powers, the North Atlantic Treaty,
American military bases abroad,
the armaments race, and the
United States policy in Germany
and Japan.
He insisted that the Soviet
Union and it's people were devoted
to peace and still believed in the
peaceful co-existence of Socialist
and capitalist systems.
He charged that the United
States is trying to spread war
in the Far East and guiding the
q. N. into becoming an instru-
ment of war. He attacked what
he called seizure of Formosa by
the United States, the embargo
on Red China after it was de-
clared an aggressor in Korea, and
denial to Red China of a place
In the U. N.
Withdrawal Asked.
But after summing up his at
tacks and what he called the
profoundly vicious" policy of the
West, he said the Soviet people
felt the problem of the armed
conflict in Korea could be settled.
"This would require the readi-
ness of the parties to enter on
the path of peaceful settlement
of the Korean question:" he said.

japanese Trade Jumps

MANILA The Philippine
Islands trade with Japan was Sec
Ond only to. that of the United
States in the first half of 1851. Ex-
perts predict the volume of trade
with the former enemy nation will
jump still more sharply once. the
Japanese peace treaty is ratified
early next year.
Japan's import and export trade
with the Philippines was II per cent
of the total for the half-year, COM
pared to 67 per cent for the United
States. ...
A Bureau of Census and Statis-
tics report showed the total volume
of foreign trade rose from $780,
$4,000 in the first six months of
1850 to $448, $40 900 in the first half
of this year.
