together between Secretary of
State Dulles and Senator Nc
Carthy. Republican, of Wiscon-
sin on such shipping agreements.
The question asked was short
one: Who won?
Senator Mccarthy and his
staff provided clues as to their
own conclusion about the meet
ing by insisting anew that the
investigation of shipping to Red
China and other Soviet bloc
countries would continue.
We Are Still Investigating
1--WE are still investigating the
overall problem. said Committee
Counsel Francis Flanagan.
Neither Senator Mccarthy
nor Mr.. Flanagan would COM
ment on reports that an agree
ment is expected any day from
the London ship operators to
complement one already OBJ
tanned from Greeks in New York
not to trade with Communist
held areas.
However, an informed commit
tee source said such an agree
ment can be expected within a
few days. It was indicated that
in line with the statement issued
Jointly by Mr.: Dulles and Sena-
tor Mccarthy after their con-
versation the State Department
would be informed of the agree
ment before it was announced.
In National Interest
The statement said the Sec
retary felt that the agreement
involving the Greek shipown-
ers operating out of New
York was lin the national in
terest." It added that Senator
Mccarthy gave the Secretary his
assurance that he had no in
,tention of trying to conduct the
Nations foreign affairs for the
State Department.
An observer studying the text
of the joint statement said: "It
Grads as if the statement was put
together by the Secretary writ
ing one paragraph and the Sen
ator writing the next"
Afterwards, in the Senate Of
fee Building, Senator Mccarthy
was asked by reporters what he
proposed to do about an agree
ment he had said earlier could
be concluded at any time with
the Greek shipowners in London
to cut off trade with Red China.

Keeps U. N. Hopeful. Pose A
voice belief that this is a major
Soviet aim.
THEY see the situation Great
ing a critical problem of leader
ship for the Eisenhower admin
istration, which must be ready to
join IN negotiating settlements
with Moscow while maintaining
the military power that enables
it to negotiate from strength.
At the same time, some au-
thorities suggest the situation is
an opportunity for the Ameri-
can and allied governments to
create "a stability which the So
viets may not hereafter be able
to upset. This view is based on
the theory that if the Kremlin
loses its postwar momentum of
aggressive expansion for a sub
stantial time, it may not be able
to get moving again.
Must ReaSSeSS Intentions.
In the face of the high-speed
Soviet maneuvers of the past
weeks. the administration is
confronted with the need con-
stantly to sound out and re-
assess the immediate purpose of
specific proposals as we'll as
overall intentions.
Assisting in this task evidently
will be the primary test of Am
bassador Charles E. Bohlen,
President Eisenhower's new en-
voy to Moscow.
RuSSia'S latest maneuver was
to submit to the United Nations
yesterday new disarmament pro-
posals which appeared somewhat
similar to Western proposals de-
nounced by the Soviets previ-
ously. Among other things, they
indicated willingness to engage
in balanced reduction of armed
forces instead of demanding a
percentage cut which would leave
Russia with an overbalance of
forces as compared with the
West.
This move, coming on top of
proposals toward ending the Ko-
rean war and other cold-war
issues, afforded one more piece
of evidence that the Kremlin is
acting according to a careful

Talks on Exchanging Asfin Defies Critics
Sick POws Open at OF Bureau, Is Willing
Panmunjom Monday To Face Investigation
Reds Also Are Ready
To Resume Stalled
Truce Negotiations
By the Asseeioted Press

MUNSAN, Korea, April o.
The Communists today handed
the United Nations command
their latest proposal for ending
the Korean fighting and sug-
gested a meeting at Panmunjom
Monday to discuss plans for ex-
changing sick and wounded
prisoners. The U. N. agreed.
The Reds said they were ready
to set date for resuming the
long -deadlocked truce talks.
Gen. Mark Clark, the U. N.
commander. already has made
it clear that allied truce nego-
tiators will return to Panmun-
jom only after arrangements
are completed for exchanging
disabled prisoners.
Delivery of the new proposals
from Red China's Foreign Min
lister. Chou En-lai, and North
Korea's Premier, Kim II Sung,
fed mounting hopes that the
Communist world is serious
about peace.
Warning on Over Optimism.
The latest development in a
chain reaction touched off by
Red China less than a week
came only a few hours after
Soviet Russia pledged it's all
out support of China's Korean
truce plan.
But many Western observers
still warned against over-opti-
mism. Wait and see if the Com
munists do more than talk about
peace, was their advice.
One Allied spokesman here,
long in close contact with the
protracted truce talks, said the
business like tone of the Commu-
mist message delivered today
was 'heartening."
It's devoid of the usual propa-
ganda," he said. He cautioned,
however. against unbridled opti-
miSm and said the Communists
would show whether they really
mean business if they settle the
details of how we exchange the
sick and wounded without a lot
Of haggling."
South Koreans See Trick.
Among U. N. forces in Korea
the latest Communist move
stirred fresh but guarded hopes.
But the South Korean Ma
tional Assembly unanimously
adopted a resolution opposing
any truce which does not unity
North and South Korea. The
resolution called the Red truce
proposal a trick aimed under
the cloak of peace to gain time
for another aggression"

Ben Hogan Finds

By the Assoeioted Press

CARNOUSTIE, Scotland, June
27.-After almost a week here
practicing for the British Open
golf tournament. Ben Hogan has
found the old Carnoustie course
easy but tiring.
This springy turf of Carnous-
tie is tiring me out" he said
today, while skipping his usual
morning round. Its different

The CarnouStie course, where
the British Open begins July 6.
is 1900 yards long-the longest
and many say the toughest COM
petitive course in Britain.
Perhaps it was the gallery of
1000 that caused Hogan to fore
go another round at Carnoustie.
Instead he slipped up the Scottish
coast to the Panmure Golf Club,
a private course, where he hit the
ball around without benefit of a
gallery.
The CarnouStie throng went
around the course instead with
Lloyd Mangrum of Chicago, who
arrived late last night. Mangrum
shot a II. The course has no
formal par, but "A is considered
a good score.
