graph Of the British proposal
calling for the "early and stimuli
taneous cessation Of hostilities"
in Indo-C China.
Some quarters felt this might
imply that ceaSe-fire arrange
ments were being made not only
for the main battlefields in Wet
Nam. but also for the areas in
Laos and Cambodia under at
tack by the Communists. France
and the United States have in
sisted with the two small ma
tions that these Communist
forces are invaders" and should
be expelled forthwith.
French Foreign Minister
Georges Bidault emphasized at
the meeting that general agree
ment for a cease fire could only
become effective after agree
ment had been reached on ques-
tions of controlling the execu-
ton Of the cease-fire terms and
guaranteeing the agreement.
Break After Long Wrangling.
Mr.. Bidault said it was his un-
derstanding that the military ex-
pertS would work as a subsidiary
body Of the conference.
The break in the long period
of wrangling came after a series
Of meetings between delegation
heads. Mr.. Eden saw both Soviet
Foreign Minister v. M. Molotov
and Red China's Foreign Minis
ter Chou En-lai before the ses-
sion. Gen. Smith and Mr.. BIZ
dault also met with Mr.. Molotov.
One reliable informant said
Mr.. Molotov. chairman Of the
meeting, stated that it was the
unanimous understanding" of
the conference that there would
be no partition of Wet Nam.
The conference agreed that
the date of the first meeting of
the military representatives in
Geneva would be set before June
l. Another secret session on Indo-
China will be held Monday.

NEWARK, N. j.. May 29.-The
Ronson Corp. announced tonight
an immediate shutdown Of the
bulk Of its operations here and
the transfer of its lighter pro-
duction to East Stroudsburg, Pa.
Louis v. Aronson II, president,
said the decision to curtail New
ark operations Twas forced upon
the company by local economic
conditions. including obsolete
plant facilities, which have made
profitable operations impossible. +"
"The problem has been fur
ther complicated by the reVoca-

ton Of the charter Of Local S9S
and the cancellation of our labor
agreement" he added.
Mr.. Aronson said the company
enjoyed good labor relations"
in its modern East Stroudsburg
plant.
The shutdown here means the
dismissal Of $50 employees.
The local involved was ousted
from the United Auto Workers
yesterday. A spokesman for the
UAW executive board said in
Detroit the charter was revoked
because officers of the local were
found guilty of "racketeering
and unethical practices concern
ing the misuse of local funds.
But Joseph A. De Modica, jr..
president of the local. called the
charges "frame-up." He added:
We've run a clean local union.

ords public. This is just q smear

of Laos and Cambodia are for

believes it is essential that any
settlement for Laos and Cam
bodia must provide for the COM
plete withdrawal of these forces
from both countries"
Gen. Smith said he assumed
that mo recommendation made
to this conference by any mill
tary representatives will involve
any violation of this principle
and that they will provide for
the withdrawal of Wet Mini
forces from Laos and Cambodia."
Hopes For Solution.
Gen. Smith told the conference
the United States will not OPP
pose the convening of the mill
tary representatives as proposed
by the United Kingdom and
would hope that they will pro-
duce acceptable solutions.
"The United States delegation,
Of course, as do others. reserves
it's right to decide for itself
whether any of the solutions
ultimately proposed by the mill
tary experts are consistent with
our firm position on Laos and
Cambodia as well as Wet Nam"
It was understood that Mr..
Eden did not join in the reser-
vation Of the other four nom
Communist states that the agree
ment had no reference to Laos
and Cambodia. Mr.. Eden was
said to hold the view that the
reservation was inherent in the
text.
The agreement asked the mil
itary representatives of the war
ring parties Ito study the dispo-
sitions of forces to be made upon
the cessation of hostilities, be-
ginning with the question of re-
grouping areas in Wet Nam"

Menzies' Coalition
Is Apparent Victor
In Australian Vote
BY the Assoeioted Press

SYDNEY, Australia, Sunday,
May 30.-Prime Minister Robert
G. Menzies' free enterprise coali-
ton government was the ap-
parent victor today over the So
cialist Labor Party opposition
in the Australian general parlia-
mentary elections.
The 12-hour balloting ended
last night. With more than
three-fourths Of the nearly five
million ballots counted, the gov
ernment's beral-Country Party
coalition pulled out of a see-saw
battle with a likely edge of 81
to 81 full voting seats in the
House Of Representatives.
At one point in the counting,
Labor pushed to the. lead but was
knocked back again by later tai
lies coming in from the rural
areas.
Mr.. Menzies was reelected
from his own constituency by a
healthy majority, as was opposi-
ton leader Herbert v. Evatt,
former foreign minister in the
Labor Department.
Fadden Hurt In Accident.
Country Party leader Sir Ar
thur Fadden, treasurer in the
Menzies government. also was
reelected but was unable to cast
his own vote. He was hurt in
an automobile accident Friday
night as he was returning home
from a 15,000-mile campaign
tour.
The voting. compulsory in
Australia with those failing to
ballot subject to fines, went off
quietly throughout the huge
island continent down under. "
A record of some 100000 were
eligible. but about 100000 we're
excused because candidates in
their seven different districts
were unopposed and thus auto
matically seated.
An aggregate Of 291 candidates
battled for the other 116 seats.
Two of the seats, which Labor
hung onto, can vote only on mat
ters affecting their own consti-
tuencies-the northern territor-
les and the Australian capital
territory
Communists Beaten.
The Communists campaigned
quietly-and fruitlessly-for Al
of their candidates.
The campaign was one Of Aus
tralia's quietest, with domestic
issues taking the limelight. Both
sides were firmly behind the
policy of close cooperation with
the United States in building de-
fenses against Communist ex-
pansion.

ThaiIand Asks U. n.
To Send Observers
Into Southeast Asia
BY the Assoeioied Press

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y, May
29.-Thailand brought the war
in Indo- China before the United
Nations Security Council today
as the East-West conference in
Geneva sought a cease-f1re there.
Thailand asked the 11-nation
council here to meet and send
observers to Southeast Asia on
the ground that large-Scale
fighting near Thailand's own
borders theatened invasion and
endangered world peace.
The acting Thai representative
to the U. NJ, Thanat Khoman,
made the request in a 250-word
letter to Sir Pierson Dixon Of
Britain, Council president for
the month of May.
British circles noted Mr.. Kho-
man did not label it urgent" :"
They said unless some delegation
did so, Sir Pierson merely would
circulate the letter to Council
members and leave it to the
United States to call the meeting.
US. to Head Council
The United States takes the
Council presidency Tuesday in
the regular monthly rotation.
American sources said there
would be no meeting that day
and probably none before late in
the week. They said if the issue
is pressed, United States Chief
Delegate Henry Cabot Lodge, jr.
would cancel plans to attend a
D-Day anniversary celebration in
Normandy, France, June 6. He
had intended to leave for Europe
next Thursday.
Mr.. Khoman told a reporter
he would not propose a specific
date for council action on Indo-
China until he got instructions
to that effect fro mhis country's
foreign secretary, Prince Wan
Waithayakon. who sent him here
from Geneva with the appeal.
His letter, without using the
word Indo-C China, spoke of "a
situation which, in the view of
my government, represents a
threat to the security Of Thai
land" likely to endanger inter-
national peace.
Points in Letter.
The letter then made these
points:
l. "Large-scale fighting has
repeatedly taken place in the
immediate vicinity of Thai ter
ritory: there is in the view of
my government a possibility of
direct incursions of foreign
troops into it's territory"
2. "The whole world is well
aware of the tension in the area
and of its dangerous poten-
tialities."
3. Therefore, in the opinion
of the Thai government, it is
essential for the United Nations
to have authentic and objective
observations and reports"
4. Thailand therefore brings
up the situation Ito the end
that the Security Council may
provide for observation under
the peace observation commits
sion"
S. Thailand requests a Council
meeting be called and Thailand
be invited as an interested party
which is not a member of the
Council to take part in the de-
bate.
Set Up in 1850.
The 14-nation peace observa-
ton commission was set up by
the 1850 General Assembly to
observe and report on the situ-
alton in any area Of tension en-
dangering world peace.
The commission may go there
itself or send q Subcommission
or observers. provided only that
it gets an invitation from the
country where IL planS to work.

French Break Siege
0fkey Defense Post
And Scatter Reds
By the Assccicied Press

HANOI, Indo-C China, May 90
Five thousand French Union
troops, including mobile artillery
units, today broke the Viet-Minh
siege Of Yen Phu in the biggest
offensive by the French since
the fall Of Dien Bien Phu. The
rebels scattered into the hills
around Phu Ly. 80 miles south
Of Hanoi. under heavy air, artil-
lery and ground attack.
Yen Phu. a strategic defense
post six miles from the big COM
munications center Of Phu Ly,
had been under siege for 18 days
in what was called a little Dien
Bien Phu." It's defending garri-
son Of only 160 men had been
supplied by air.
French pilots dropped arms and
supplies to two other small delta
posts which have been under
rebel siege for about a week. They
were Xathi and Tayam about Is
miles southwest of Haiphong, the
big port city which receives most
of the American supplies for
the Indo- China fighting.
Troops Take Hill Positions.
Tanks. armored cars and the
infantrymen drove from the Nam
Dinh and Phu Ly sectors to re-
lieve Yen Phu. After breaking
the siege the . infantry famed
out to take a hill position the
rebels had used for observation
purposes. This was Khenon
Mountain. whose top is about
1000 feet higher than the sur
rounding limestone hills which
serve as rebel hideouts.
The French foot soldiers
quickly dispersed eight rebel
contact pionts" on the. noun
tain.
Mobile American supplied
155-mm. long-range guns lobbed
hundreds of shells into Wet
Mini hill positions.
Heavy concentrations of rebels
were spotted on the Day River
just west of Phu Ly and Yen
Phu. The rebels were heavily
strafed and bombed. In addi-
ton, the French sent amphibious
units into the river to supple
ment the air assault.
Would Cut Communications.
French military authorities say
the Wet Mimi have around IL
battalions-up to 1900 men-in
the Phu Ly sector, while the
French number about a division.
Capture of Phu Ly would slash
French communications with the
rice-rich southwest sector of the
delta.
1t would enable the rebels to
step up attacks on the vital road
rail link between Hanoi and
Haiphong. These routes carry
the bulk of the American war
equipment for French Union
forces in the delta.
A French news agency dis
patch reported rebel action in
Cambodia in southern Indo-
China. A group of 400 Wet Mini
attacked the important road
junction of Skoun. go miles
northwest of Phnom-Penh, the
Cambodians capital. The rebels
