Dim View Taken
of Rhee's Offer
For IndOchina
BY WARREN ROGERS JR.

WASHINGTON R - Little hone
was held by American diplomats
today that anything would come
of Syngman Rhee's offer of troops
to help France in the Indochina
war.
Although the offer of a South
Korean division has yet to reach
the French officially, a French
Embassy spokesman gave advance
notice of a rundown yesterday:
He said his government would re.
Ject it for fear South Korean In.
Movement would bring on open Red
Chinese Intervention in the eight
year-old war.
State Department officials also
were understood TO view the South
Korean presidents threat to march
against North Korea as a bluff
exactly what he said il was not
intended to be.
Without u. S. aid, they said. n
was hard to see how Rhee could
figure on winning any big armed
attack against giant Communist
China.

Ceiling Falls
OnJapan's Big
Money Scheme
BY jim BECKER

TOKYO R-The ceiling has fall:
en- in on postwar Japan'S biggest
financial scheme and japanese
from politicians to Buddhist priests
are picking the plaster out of their
hair.
Three top political parties, in
GLIDING the Liberal party of Prime
Minister Shigeru YoShida, are
scurrying out from under the
wreckage of the 12-miIlion-dollar
investment company, Hoazen Kei-
Zai Kai.
Government investigators said
the company'S wizard, Matsutomi
Ito, Al, spread contributions law
ishly among the three top parties
so he could use big names as
advisers.
Collapse of the company, due
largely to misfired speculations in
the stock market, caught hundreds
of thousands of housewives and
laborers. Their small investments,
baited by promises of Is per cent
interest, had helped build the
company.
Also among those caught in the
collapse was the abbot of a large
Buddhist denomination. Company
records show he collected contri-
buttons from his flock and gave
them to Ito to invest.
Ito is in jail, charged with swim
ding. Newspapers call him Japan's
alignment of Far Eastern nations,
"Ponzr', reference to the Boston
swindler who once collected mil
lions from gullible Americans.
Investors knew he was specu-
lating in stocks and real estate but
looked upon him as a wizard. For
a time, he had an amazing run
of luck. He paid the promised Is
per cent interest.
A Korean who became a natur-
ahzed japanese, Ito had struggled
