Dulles Won't Talk
On Pravda Statement
BY the Associated Press

PARIS, April 25.-A spokes-
man for John Foster Dulles said
today the United States Secre-

comment on the Pravda state
ment replying to President Ei-

Mr.. Dulles. himself, quickly
brushed past neWsmen as he
entered the last session of the
NATO ministers meeting.
The spokesman said, I'VE have

there is no reason to comment
on something in the newspap-

Georges Bidault, French for
eign minister, said the Pravda
statement was very interesting,
but I don't want to comment at
this stage"
A spokesman for Belgian For

said publication of large portions
of President EiSenhower's speech
in Pravda was a "step in the
right direction"
While declining comment on
the statement itself, he said that

Measure Extending
Rent Curbs 10 JuIy31
Is Passed by Senate
House-Approved Bill
Now Reudy for Signing;
District Not Affected
By Robert K. Walsh

The Senate today passed a
House-approved bill to continue
Federal rent controls to July 81
in communities which now have
them.
The measure now goes to the
White House. President EiSen-
hover already has indicated he
would sign the bill, which repre-
sents a compromise between his
earlier suggestion for an extern
sion to October / and the views
of some congressional G. o. p.
leaders that such controls should
expire April 30.
Sc Million Units Affected.
Some Sc million dwelling units
are affected. OF these, about 4.3
million are in communities which
voted last year to continue the
controls under Federal legisla-
ton. Another 1.3 million are in
areas designated as critical be-
cause of the growth of defense
activities.
The extension bill does not
apply to the District and any eX-
tension here would have to be
handled by separate legislation.
The bill passed by the House
last Thursday was brought to the
Senate floor by Republican Lead
er Taft. He obtained unanimous
consent to lay aside the sub
merged lands bill for an hour so
that the rent control measure
could be considered.
Discussion Is Brief.
Senators, however, took less
than half an hour in discussing
the bill, although Democratic
Senators Douglas of Illinois and
Lehman of New York said they
thought the extension Shoul0
have been at least until october
!.
Senator Douglas declared that
many large cities would have
difficulty in getting local rent
control authority from State
legislatures he said were domi-
mated by members from rural
areas.
The voice vote on the bill was
unanimous. The bill would con-
tinue rent ceilings from the
April 80 expiration date under
the present law for three months
in cities which now have them,
and for year in certain speci-
fed critical defense areas.

Harmony on Surface
May Hide Split in
NAT0 Paris Meetinu
Fear Growing Thot U. S.
Is Anxious to Bow Our
From Role as Leader
Bv Croshv { Noves
By Crosby S. Noyes
Star Stoff Correspondent

PARIS. April 25.-Any one
who takes at face value the Off
cial statements at the current
council meeting of the North At
lantic treaty ministers must
come to the conclusion that
NATO was never in better shape
than it is today.
In their published resolutions
and press conferences, the IL
nations represented here have
put on a determined show OF
unanimity and good-fellowship
The less harmonious aspects
of the conference have been
sidestepped or smoothed over in
the best diplomatic tradition
Every potential bombshell has
been quickly doused.
Real Split Is Rumored.
This outward show of har-
mony is being received with a
good deal of skepticism. There
are continuing rumors of a real
split on several important mat
ters, including the response OF
the Western World to the Rus
sian peace offensive.
According to the reports, one
school led by the United States
favors a reserved statement re-
fiecting q highly skeptical atti-
tude toward the new Russian
tack. The other group, led by
the British, is said to be plugging
for less frosty resolution in
dicating that NATO still has an
open mind toward the new Rus
sian regime.
Another difference centers on
the idea expressed by Secretary
Of State Dulles that Western
Europe and not the United
States should take over the role
Of pacemaker in NATO.
Continuance Pledged.
In a press conference yeSter-
day, the leader of the British
delegation. Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer r. A. Butler, suggested
that the pace of NATO's effort
must continue to be the common
responsibility of all the partici-
pating countries.
Both of these differences re-
fleet commonly expressed anxi-
ETY. in Europe toward the new
American administration.
The first difference springs
from a feeling that the Repub-
lican leadership has shown itself
somewhat less than astute in its
foreign policy and unnecessarily
stubborn in pursuing a set
course. Russian peace moves in
Europe bring a feeling that
Western policy should be flexible
enough to take advantage of any
diplomatic breaks that may
occur.
The second difference reflects
a growing fear that the United
States is anxious to bow out OF
its role Of leader in the Western
community once the objective OF
German rearmament has been
achieved. Most Europeans are
aware what withdrawal OF
American support would mean
and they are willing to pay al
most any price to avoid it. The
present NATO council meeting
which is giving Western Europe
its first real taste Of the new
administrations foreign policy
has not succeeded in calming
these fears. On the contrary
Mr.. Dulles and his colleagues
have suggested more than once
