Europe Relieved Over Talks,
But French Resent |SideIininq'
Hope for Peuce in Indo- Chino Now High;
France Takes EDO Slap PhiIosophicoIIy

State Department now is recog-
nizing officially at least the pos
sibility of reaching an agree
ment with the Communists
possibility which until now had
been ignored as stubbornly as
the recognition of the Red
Chinese.
The French are also grateful
for the renewed warning to the
Communists at Geneva that
they are asking for trouble if
they keep on coming up with
demands which prevent an ac-
ceptable agreement"
But their big interest obvi-
ously centers on the wonderfully
imprecise statement that Britain
and the United States will "press
forward with plans for collec-
tive defense" in Southeast Asia
AS interpreted in Europe this
sentence means precisely the
opposite of what it says. II
means in fact that no formal
steps will be taken to create q
Southeast Asian security organ
ization during this interim stage
of negotiations at Geneva
Pressing forward" in this sense
means informal contacts and
preliminary exploration of the
subject at least until the results
of the present French effort to
reach agreement are known.
Future Safeguard.
It is on this assumption that
European optimism about the
Washington talks is based. It is
taken as a clear concession to
the British view that whatever
security system can be devised
its purpose, its scope and its
membership will depend very
largely on what happens at &C.
neva. In short that the security
pact is to be what Mr.. Eden said
it should be-a future safeguard
and not a present panacea.
Admittedly this Interpretation
may not be nearly so general ir
the United States. At this stage
one cannot avoid an uneasy feel.

President Asks
Proof Of Reds
Good Faith
Says Hope Of World
Lies in Peaceful
Co-Existence

President Eisenhower declared
today that the hope Of the world
is for the peaceful co-exiStence of
all nations, and that he is always
willing to confer with any one
on this problem if he is con-
WINGED that the other side is
sincere.
Gen. Eisenhower said that, so
far, the United States has found
on the other side an aggressive
attitude that has made difficult
all attempts to reach a position
of peaceful co-existence. He said
there must be good faith on both
sides.
The President discussed Amer
ica'S foreign problems at length
during a news conference which
featured many questions about
Gen. Eisenhower's just-ended
talks with British Prime Minis
ter Sir Winston Churchill.
Asked whether Sir Winston
pressed his long-standing desire
for a three-way meeting with
Gen. Eisenhower and Soviet
Premier Malenkov, the President
said that all of us have been
willing to Golfer if we are con-
WINGED that the other side is
sincere.
Proof Through Deeds Needed.
If there is any proof through
deeds that the other side is sin
cere, Gen. Eisenhower continued,
the United States is quite con-
tent to do anything it can.
The President said he knew
the American side was sincere.
He said the hope of the world
is for peaceful coexistence, add
ing we've got to find a way to
live together.
The President declined to go
into details about Southeast
Asia, but Said-and allowed di-
rect quotation: IT will not be a
party to any treaty that makes
any one a slave"
This implied that the United
States would not indorse any
French agreement that gives the
IndochineSe state Of Wet Nam
to the Communists.
The President expressed great
satisfaction that the Reds were
on the run in Guatemala, but
left details to Secretary of State
Dulles to explain in a radio ad-
dress tonight.
Calls Conference Fruitful.
Gen. Eisenhower, praising
Prime Minister Churchill as one
of his warmest foreign friends,
said the Anglo-American confer
ence here over the week end did
much to get affairs between their
two countries back on the rails.
He said he and Sir Winston
found that their broad purposes
and beliefs on their applica-
ton of those purposes in specific
areaS-were closely established
as common to both nations.
The President disclosed that
he and Sir Winston discussed
problems of the hydrogen bomb,
but said it was merely a search
ing out of an understanding. He
said there were no specifics to
report about this aspect of the
talks.

zen when he feels himself abused
has the right to appeal. He said
that if DR.. Oppenheimer were
to make such a plea it would
be given careful study.
Gen. Eisenhower added that
he would probably turn over any
Oppenheimer appeal to the JUS
tice Department for analysis
and recommendation. In reply
to another question the Presi-
dent said he had not read the
record in the Oppenheimer case.

Data on Shir|ey-Duke
Offered
Al Housing Inquiry
False Statements Made
Monday by Government
Official, Senators Told
By Hector McLeon

Senate housing investigators
today began probing the legal
and financial maneuvers that led
to building of the $13 million
Shirley-Duke Apartment project
in Alexandria, Va.
With seven out of eight prin-
cipals clustered before them, the
Senate Banking Committee
heard that:
/. Statements Monday by Will
liam F. McKenna. the admin
istration's chief of the housing
program, were reckless and
false" The charge was made by
A. Harding Paul, attorney for
two of the owners of two of the
six sections in which Shirley
Duke is divided.
2. The project was originally
financed by Investors Diversified
Services, which is owned by the
Allegheny Corp.-reportedly con-
trolled by railroad magnate Rob-
ert Young-and in which Texas
multi-millionaire Clint Murch-
iSon now has an interest.
3. IDS had picked up over $40
million" on Shirley-Duke and
similar projects throughout the
country.
4. Three of the builders, each
of whom is president of two of
the six Shirley-Duke sections,
went on the payrolls of their
corporations at salaries of $780,
900 a year each as soon as con-
Struction started in 1949.
S. IDS advanced initial con-
struction funds charging a 61a
per cent fee. This totaled $780,
900.
6. Total profits paid so far to
the builders and IDS are So
419, 407.
Z. The deal was financed by
the builders on a total invest
ment of $4,000 plus funds bor-
rowed from IDS.
8. The FILA would not allow
the owners to pay OF their mort
gage at a faster rate than was
specified except under a one per
cent penalty charged to the FILA
and three or four per cent to the
mortgage holder.
9. To builders were advised by
the Internal Revenue Service
that their profits could and
would be treated as capital gains
for tax purposes rather than as
earned income.
10. Bryan Gordon, jr., one of
the builders, said in an applica-
ton for mortgage insurance by
the Federal Housing AdminiStra-
ton that he would put up land
costing $4,000. He told the
committee, II owned it under a
verbal agreement" Ultimate
value estimated for the land was
$5O5, 499.
Plans Were Changed.
Carl BudweSky, stakeholder
and former city manager of Alex
andria, now a resident of Will
mington, Del, declared Mr.. Cor
don did not put up the land or
the money for it because of a
change in financing plans.
Originally. he testified, IDS
was to own half the project while
the builders owned the other half.
Later, he said, IDS decided not to
own any Of the projects and to
add a 5 per cent service charge
for financing it.
Also, Mr.. Budwesky testified,

Eisenhower Asks
Drive to Reduce
Holiday Deaths

President Eisenhower
called today for an effort to
cut the Nations deaths over
the July 4th holiday at least
in half.
The President recalled
that during the last July 4th
week end some 400 Ameri-
cans were killed in highway
and other accidents. The
President said he would like
to see newspapers, radio and
television do everything they
can between now and the
holiday to cut that figure
in half this year.

The House moved toward
passage of a 1897 billion foreign
aid authorization bill today
after upholding on a 5000 vote
q provision banning funds to
any country joining a nom
aggression pact with Commu-
mist governments.
The provision was included in
the bill yesterday on a tentative
voice vote after being offered by
Representative Vorys, Republic
can of Ohio, on behalf of the
Foreign Affairs Committee.
Representative MacCormack
of Massachusetts,, Democratic
deputy leader, moved to put the
House on record with a roll call,
although he was personally in
favor of the amendment.
Recommittal Sought.
The House prepared to vote
later today on a scheduled mo-
ton by Representative Williams,
Democrat, of Mississippi to re-
turn the entire bill to commit
tee and thus delay it indefinite
ly. Expected defeat of the re-
committal motion would clear the
way for a final vote on the bill
itself.
The measure would authorize
about $109 million less than
President Eisenhower asked for
the administration foreign-aid
program during the fiscal year
beginning tomorrow. Amend
ments, adopted by the House
yesterday, trimmed a total of
$l02 million. Previously the
Foreign Affairs Committee had
cut 81 million from the admin
istration's original request. No
move was made in the House
today to restore those cuts or to
increase any other items in the
measure.
In addition to more than a
dozen amendments tentatively
voted yesterday and approved
today the House this morning
adopted an amendment that
would require use of American
ships in transporting at least
SO per cent of the foreign aid
equipment and commodities.
The House also adopted an
amendment offered by Repre-
sentative Gross, Republican, Of
Iowa, striking out a section al
lowing the President to waive
certain Federal laws regulating
contracts in connection with the
foreign-aid program.
Two Amendments Approved.
Subject to possible but unlikely
reversal on the final vote today,
the House approved two amend
ments offered by Representative
Bentley, Republican of Michigan.
These struck out a $27 million
provision for development of Spe-
cial weapons in Europe and SIS
million for manufacture of mill
tary aircraft in the United King
dom.
Besides Signifying its feeling
on the Vorys amendment to the
White House, within a few hours
after the departure of British
Prime Minister Winston Church.
Ill, the House debate on various
other amendments indicated that
the foreign aid total is still far
from settled.
A separate bill providing the
funds will be acted on next
month after being reported out
by the House Appropriations
Committee. Representative Ia
Der, New York Republican who
heads that committee, served
notice he favored still further
cuts. Representative Anderson,
Republics of Minnesota,
warned the House that he will
try to have the supply bill re-
duced by at least $400 million
more. That saving, he declared,
could be used to provide for
parity price supports for basic
horticultural commodities.

Senate Republicans came up
today with a last-minute plan
of their own for giving more tax
relief to wage earnerS in an eff.
fort to beat a Democratic pro.
posal due to be voted on this
afternoon.
In a hastily called party con.
ference, G. o. P. leaders an

nounced they would move to cut
in half the Specia. tax credit the
House approved for stockhold-
ers and couple with It a limited
500 increase in the 5000 per-
sonal exemption for each tax
payer in the low wage brackets.
1t appeared that administra-
ton leaders Welded to the argu-
ments of a group of Republican
Senators who felt the Democrats
had seized upon a potent cam
paign argument in their tax bill
amendment.
May Delay Test Vote.
There were signs that the I'M
expected Republican move might
delay a test vote until late to-
day or tomorrow. There was no
time to prepare copies of the
Republican plan for each Sem
ator by the time the Senate met,
and Senator Gore, Democrat, Of
Tennessee, blocked a request Of
unanimous consent to offer the
Republican proposal as a COM
plete substitute for the George
plan. Unless this objection is
withdrawn, the Republicans will
have to offer their proposal
piecemeal by amending each Sec
ton of the George plan.
Under the prevailing agree
ment there could be two hours
OF debate on each paragraph Of
the SUBSTITUTE.
Would Cost Less.
Senator Milikin. Republican,
OF Colorado. gave the Senate
these figures to show how much
less the Republican amendment
will cost:
Net effect of the George plan
on the Treasury-$657 million
in 1855: SIT billion in 1856 and
SIS billion in 1857.
Net effect of the Republican
subStitute-$500 million in 1855;
$3.50 million in 1856, and $548
million in 1857.
The Democrats have been tell
ing the country that the tax
bill as it stands gives substantial
relief to coupon clippers" but
no additional tax cuts to wage
earners.
Democrats Rally to George.
The Democrats have rallied
behind the amendment by SEN
ator George of Georgia, which
would strike out all of the new
tax credit for recipients of divi-
dend income and substitute a
500 increase in the $500 exemp-
ton for all taxpayers whether
they depend on dividend income
OF wages.
Under the House bill recipients
of dividends could deduct the
first $50 and then claim a credit
of 5 per cent on the remainder
Of dividend income this year.
Starting next year the deduca-
ton would go up to $100 with a
credit of 10 per cent on the re-
mainder.
Chairman Millikin of the Re-
publican conference announced
that the COP substitute will keep
the dividend income relief at
$50 and 5 per cent indefinitely.
Coupled with it will be 500 Of
additional exemption for tax
payers who are wage earners.
George More Liberal.
This is less liberal than the
George plan, which gives another
500 to each taxpayer and de-
pendent.
The Republicans prepared their
substitute so hurriedly that all

ceived here SO far, there is some
question as to how far the new
agreement goes. There is un-
derStandable reese TIN emit in
France at having been banished
to the sidelines during a major
conference on Western policy
and dispute as to who won" in
the accommodation of conflict
ing Anglo-American views re-
f1ected in the communique.
But the almost universal Eu-
ropean anxiety about the Wash
ington conference has been re-
lieved: Fear that Prime Minister
Churchill and Foreign Secretary
Eden would be won over by
American arguments for imme-
date action which might Scuttle
hope of peaceful settlement in
Asia.
Shrug Off Hard Words
In return for this the French
are inclined to accept in good
grace the hard words in the
Washington agreement devoted
to Western Europe. At this point
the French are so accustomed to
having pressure put on them to
ratify EDO that they scarcely
notice it any more. Some feel it
was unfortunate that Britain and
the U. S. should have made
such a point of ganging up on
France at a time when the fate
Of the treaty hangs in critical
balance. But they admit that
some common ground had tC
be found and that the results
of the Anglo-American talks
could have been much worse.
BY and large both the British
and the French are inclined tt
take comfort in the very
vagueness of the joint state
ment on Southeast Asia. The
general conclusion is that ne
substantial agree ment wa:
reached and that no earthShak-
ing decisions were taken. AnC
strange as it may seem to many
Americans, this is matter fol
rejoicing for those who still pir
hopes on the chance of a peace
full settlement in Indo- China.
Along the line of minor ad-
juStmentS it is noted that the
