NYe's Firm 10 Survey
i. ). MicrofiIminq

General Services AdminiStra-
ton announced today it has
made a $4,000 contract with
Records Engineering, Inc. head
ed by former Senator Gerald P.
Nye of North Dakota, for a sur
vey of records microfilming.
The survey will be Govern
ment-wide and is expected to be
completed by the end OF this
year.
Edmund F.. Mansur, admin
istrator of General Services,
said:
"We are concerned particular
ly with eliminating waste from
the use of microfilming Federal
records. But equally important
is our desire to see microflms
used to their best advantage in
records management by reducing
space and by assuring well-pre-
served copies of vital records"
Normal Government eXpendi-
ture for microfllming is estimat-
ed at SO million a year. But
duplication of records for safe
storage beyond areas judged to
be targets for enemy attack is
estimated to have pushed the
expenditure to as much as 81
million. This microfilming of
records for security reasons had
big impetus when the Korean
war started.

The Senate District Committee

On this the vote was 5-to-3.
Joining with Senator Morse
for this change were Republican
Senators Beall of Maryland and
Payne of Maine and Democratic
Senator's Neely of West Virginia
and Mansfield of Montana.
Voting mo" were Chairman

Barrett of Wyoming and Demo-

The action was taken although
some members suggested that
this change might handicap the

Rhee Now Reported
Ready 10 Go Along
On Korean Truce
ToIks With Robertson
May End Row if Leader
Doesn't Change Mind
BY John N. Hiehtower
Associoted Press Stoff Writer

South Korean President Syng-
man Rhee and Assistant Secre-
tary of State Walter Robertson
were reported today to have made
substantial progress toward an
agreement under which Mr.. Rhee
would go along with an armi-
stice ending the Korean war.
Well-informed authorities said
that according to their latest in
formation the conclusion of a
full and final agreement with
President Rhee by Mr.. Robert
son could be almost instantly
achieved, if the 78-year-old Ko-
rean leader did not again change
his mind.
Some officials said the under
standing amounted to an agree
ment. Others, apprehensive
about the way Mr.. Rhee has
vacillated IN the past between
cooperating with a truce and
going on with the war. said
nothing could be counted as con-
cluded until signed and sealed.
Could Assure Reds.
Agreement with Mr.. Rhee
would permit the United Ma
tions truce delegation to give
firm assurances to the Commu-
mist command that armistice
terms would be fully complied
with by South Korea. The Reds
repeatedly demanded such a
commitment again last night in
a truce meeting at Panmunjom.
To date Gen. Mark Clark,
United Nations commander, ',as
limited his responses on this
point to emphasizing that South
Korea is sovereign state, but
stating that he will take all
steps possible to make sure truce
terms are carried out.
Mr.. Robertson is understood to
have used two main arguments
in his negotiations to obtain Mr.
Rhee's acceptance of a truce.
-, U. S. Would Provide Help.
One is that the United States
is prepared to give United States
military and economic aid, a Sc
curity treaty and strong political
