supposed to quit then under
their 1850 treaty with Red China.

the Yalta agreement giving the

Moscow Visit Recalled.
In 1850 Mao Tze-tung jour-

Of which the Russians promised
to get out of Port Arthur by
the end Of 1852. But in Sep
tember, 1852, the Russians ne
gotiated a new agreement In
stead, permitting them to stay
on until Japan signed q peace
treaty with the Communist
powers. The excuse was that
there was still a threat Of jap
anese aggression.
Then, as now, there was no
mention Of Dairen. Apparently
the Russians will stay on there
indefinitely.
This time In Peiping. as four
years ago in Moscow. there seems
to have been more very hard
bargaining. Ostensibly to cele-

Shift in Pori Arthur
Hints al Strains on
Soyief-Peiping Axis
BY WiIliotn [. Ryon

The Moscow announcement OF
a new agreement with Red
China is an event Of great sig
nificance. Among other things.
it hints at strains in Moscow
Peiping relations and efforts to
ease them.
Since the Russians are noto-
riously unwilling to get out OF
any place once they have a foot
in the door, the announcement
that they are leaving Port Ar
thur by next June can only be
viewed with suspicion. Perhaps
the Red Chinese politely insisted
on the departure.
United States officials saw the
announcement of troop with
drawal as a fairly cheap Soviet
gesture Of friendship toward Red
China.
There was compensation for
Russia in the communicates an
nouncement that a railway will
be constructed from Alma Alta,
capital of Soviet Kazakhstan
near the China frontier, through
remote Sinkiang and Ulan
Bator. the capital Of Outer Mon
golia.
Both Sinkiang and Mongolia
appear to have figured largely
in strains between Moscow and
Peiping.
Exploiting Rich Areas.
The Russians apparently want
to continue exploiting both those
rich areas. To placate the Chi
nese the yagree % Ito get out OF
Port Arthur, CD to increase the
number of heavy idustrial prof.
ects they are helping the Chinese
to build from 141 to 156 and 90

$3.50 million"
The Soviet Union also will
transfer it's share in Joint Rus
SIAN Chinese companies to Peip-
ing. but this is no giveaway, any
more than the economic help is
Both are paid for by what the
communique calls items of usual
export" from China. That means
more export of what the Chinese
can least afford-food.
The communique repeated the
old Communist call to Japan tc
rid itself of American troops
This got a cool reception ir
Tokyo, where acting Prime Min
lister Taketora Ogata character
lied it as part of a "peace Of
fensive" to estrange Japan from
the West.
The Russians and Chinese also
agreed that a conference on the
Korean question should be held
soon with interested states
participating. This was an evil
dent reference to the failure o1
the Geneva conference last
spring to arrange reunificatior
of North and South Korea.
U. S. Acts Denounced.

what it called direct acts of ag-

UNITED NATIONS. N. r,
Oct. 12.-The United States
said today the latest Soviet pro-
posals on disarmament appear
to open an avenue for further
discussion and I'VE definitely do
not reject them"
The United States position
was stated by Ambassador
James j. Wadsworth in the
General Assembly's 60-nation
Political Committee.
Mr.. Wadsworth said the
Soviet proposals still leave
many obstacles to be overcome,
but added:
I'VE are still hopeful that
these Soviet proposals repre-
sent an important step in the
direction of an agreed diSarma-
ment program. They must.
however. be clarified and elab-
grated. Large segments Of the
disarmament program are not
touched at all in these pro-
posalS."
Would Revive Committee.
Mr.. Wadsworth said the
United States would be ready to
support re-activation in the five-
member Disarmament Subcom-
mittee which held secret talks
in London last spring in an un-
successful attempt to resolve
the disarmament deadlock.
Russia's Andrei Vishinsky
made a two-hour speech yes
terday in which the Rus
sian again yielded, ground on
the old Soviet demand for an
immediate ban on nuclear weap-
ons.
Observers noted, however, that
while the Russian delegate an
Swered a number of points
raised by Britain's Selwyn Lloyd
and Frances Jules Moch. he
carefully steered clear of the key
question: Will Russia agree to
on-the-spot inspection of her
arsenalS?
Vishinsky's Points.
Mr.. Vishinsky made the fol-
lowing main points:
/. Instead of an immediate
ban on nuclear weapons, the dis
armament program can start
with, reduction of conventional
arms and armed forces. The,
prohibition of atomic and hydro
gen bombs can come in the sec
ond phase, after a control organ
has been set up.
2. The control organ must not
have power to close plants in
any country. Such authority
muslin accordance with the
U. N. charter-reSt with the Sc
curity Council.
8. The Russians accept the
British-French disarmament rec
concentrations Of last spring as
basis for discussion, but that
does not mean that we accept
them wholesale"
4. Russia will not object to an
international disarmament con-
ference if the other U. N. mem
bers want one.
Reluctant on Controls.
British sources said the Rus
slams still appear unwilling for
the control organ to have any
real powers of enforcement.
They pointed out that Russia
holds the veto in the Security
Council and could block any
move which they did not like.
Elsewhere in the U. NJ: Burma
told the Special Political Com
mittee Chinese Nationalist troops
still inside Burmese borders were
being staked by misguided" in
dividuals and organizations from
abroad. Nationalist China re-
torted that the forces in question
were "irregulars" and completely
beyond its control.

MaIan, South Africa
Premier, 10 Retire;
Followers Shocked
By the Associated Press

PRETORIA, South Africa,
Oct. 12.-Prime Minister Daniel
F. Malan, grim-faced fighter for
white supremacy and racial seq
regation in the Union of South
Africa, dramatically announced
to his cabinet last night that
he would retire from Office No
vember 80.
The leader Of South Africa s
Dutch-descended Boer popula-
tion summoned his official fam
lily to the Prime Minister'S resi-
dence here and told them his
decision is irrevocable.
He added he also would give
up his seat in Parliament from
Piketberg and retire to his home
at Stellenbosch, in Cape
Province.
Announcements Of his decision
did not give any reason for the
retirement. He was 80 last May
%.
(British Commonwealth dip
1omats in London speculated
that DR.. Malan's retirement
probably was due to three
+ reasons: Cd his declining
health; (2) the recent i'll
health of his wife, who is his
closest political adviser and
!. constant companion, and 80
recent differences with Ma
tional Party strong man Jo-
! hannes G. Strydom, who long
has urged stronger action to-
ward the party's prime aims
OF race segregation and es-
tablishment of South Africa
as a republic).
The National Party chief die
not name his successor but polit-
ical circles believe he has chosen

who in 1851 merged his Afrikanel
Party with DIR. Malan's Nationa
faction to form the present-day
National Party. +
Successor Unnamed.
There was some speculation
that j. G. Strydom, militant
Nationalist leader in the Trans.
vaal and q cabinet member
might be a candidate for the tol
post. However, observers gen,
orally believed that DR.. Malar
before stepping out had taker
steps to line up his succession
and smooth the way for 1t.

nouncement was expected Il

The rally is being sponsored

The committee predicted an

of them coming here from other
cities by special trains.
Similar rallies also are sched-
