Van Fleet Declares
He sGIad Of Collapse
|0f Talks on Korea
By The Assosiassd Press

TOKYO, June 16.-Gen. James
A. Van Fleet, former commander
Of the United States 9th Army
in Korea, said today the breakup
Of the Korean peace conference
at Geneva was mo surprise to
me" and I'm glad 1t finally came
about
The retired general, on q mill
tary aid survey Of the Far East
for President Eisenhower, de-
clared I'VE had to 60 through
with 1t and prove once again you
can't believe the Communists
you can't rely on them"
Gen. Van Fleet arrived today
from Korea and said he planned
to visit Formosa "as soon as I
can"
ssss
Plenty Of Manpower.
Asked If the South Korean
Army. which he helped build to
its present 20 division strength,
could be expanded, Gen. Van
Fleet declared:
They have plenty Of man
power and a wonderful spirit.
This is true Of all our free coun-
tries in Asia.
! Whenever you find q native
force. trained and equipped and
with q passionate desire to de-
fend its freedom, it is a bargain
package for the United States
to support such people,"
Earlier at Seoul Airport Gen.
Van Fleet told newsmen South
Korea has more than enough
men to expand its army above
20 divisions. Some United States
military experts have said South
Korea could not support a larger
force.
Informed quarters said it APP
peared that President Eisen-
hover has been using Gen. Van
Fleet-a personal friend Of stub
born old President Syngman
Rhee-to keep South Korea in
line since the Geneva talks failed.
Mr.. Rhee has said frequently
since the artnistice was signed
last July that he would order a
drive north If Korea was not
united peacefully.
First Bolt Led by q. S.
At Chinhae, where Mr.. Rhee
is attending an unofficial Asian
anti Communist conference, the
fiery president said breakup Of
the Geneva talks els the first
time since the cease-f1re talks
began in Panmunjom that the
United States has led the other
nations in withdrawing from
conference with the Communists.
The ROK president said call
ing OF the peace conference
demonstrates that ''the free ma
tions no longer are begging the
Communists to come to some
agreement so as to avoid at any
cost the possibility Of World
War III"
Let us stand firm and prove
not by word but action that we
will not put any further conf
dence in what the Communists
say" Mr.. Rhee declared. From
now on If the Reds want peace,
they must prove it by their ac-
tions, not by talk" a

The Washington Federation Of

utive director Of the Federation.
said today the group has sug-
gested a conference with trade
associations in the area to dis
cuss the situation. He said let
tiers had been sent to Il asso-

the area.
I'VE realize that the whole
matter of Sunday business Is a
very complicated one" said the
letter to the businessmen. for
there are some places of business
that have always been open. par
ticularly those that meet emer.
gency needs.
I'VE are not endeavoring to re-
introduce any Sunday blue laws
but are eager to curb any further
encroachment on a day Of rest

I'VE feel that not only do the
merchants. but also those whom
they employ, need to have such
q day free from business, a day
in which they can be with their
families and with them attend
the church Of their choice"

Conference Report
Adopted by House
By Wilton A. MiIIen

The lease-purchaSe bill today
took another step forward when
the House adopted the confer
ence report. settling differences
with the Senate version.
The conference report now
goes to the Senate for action. If
passed, the measure will be sent
to the White House for Presi-
dent EiSenhower's signature.
The House acted speedily soon

ference report was adopted by a

submit a list of lease-purchase
projects, which must be APP
proved by the Senate and House
Public Works Committees, be-
fore the necessary funds can be
appropriated.
Limitation Written In.
The legislation was radically
rewritten in conference. A three

during which lease purchase
projects may be approved was
written in by the conferees. GSA

ment acquires title to the prop
erty constructed under this

Alexandra Officials
Seek Final Land for
Bridge Approaches

The Alexandria Planning
Commission will ask the City
Council next week to take steps
to acquire the final 4 to 5 acres
of land needed for approaches
to the proposed Jones Point
Bridge.
The land involved is along old
South street. between Columbus
street and United States Route /.
Necessary land east of Columbus
street is owned already by either
the city or the Federal Govern
ment.
Owner Wants Motel.
The acquisition recommends
ton was voted last night, COM
mission officials said. because the
owner of the property, Jefferson
Ford, has applied for special
use permit to construct q motel
on the property.
Commission officials stressed
that they would not recommend
Immediately how the land be
purchased. They said more study
is needed to determine the pos
Sibility Of State or Federal aid
to help the city with the pur-
chase.
East Of Columbus street. the
city owns four block stretch of
land to Royal street. The APP
proaches from Royal street to
the bridge would cross Federal
land. The new acquisition,
therefore. would give the city
all the land it needed to extend
the bridge route at least as far
as Route l. Whether this much
right-of-way would be sufficient,
however, is still to be determined.
Condition Added to Bill.
The House has passed a bill
authorizing construction of the
bridge proper at Federal expense,
but with a firm condition that
no money be spent until Mary
land and Virginia officials guar
antee to provide necessary
approaches. The bill leaves the
decision with the District Com
missioners as to what will
constitute adequate approaches.
Original plans call for the APP
proaches on the Virginia side 10
lead all the way to Shirley
highway. Some officials, how
ever. feel that as q starter, the
approaches might be built only
as far as Route or to Telegraph
road to the west.
