Torrance Of their responsibilities.
Soviet Vague
The Soviet Union remains
vague on just how far it is will
ing to go on the powers of a
control agency, but it's latest pro-
posal clearly does not go far
enough to satisfy the West.
Although the USSR resolution
asserts that the control agency
shall have permanently in the
signatory nations "its staff of
inspectors who. within the bounds
Of the control functions they ex-
ercise, would have unhindered
access at any time to all objects
of control" it adds this declara-
ton:
ut is impossible to ignore the
fact that at the present time
there is considerable interna-
tional tension and distrust. .
In the existing situation, when
many states displayed legiti-
mate concern for their security,
it is difficult to expect that these
states would trustfully give
other states access to their in
dustrial and other resources
which are< of vital Importance
for their security"
Areas Specified
This apparently means that
the Soviet Union will not at this
time agree to inspection of
manufacturing centers. On the
other hand the only specific
areas mentioned for inspection
control points are "big ports.
railway functions. motor roads
and airdromes.
The Soviet resolution also
argues that because of the lack
of trust between states a deci-

The Army did not disclose the

Gen. Summerall went on to carve
out an equally meritorious career

The general was Ga in 1881

four-year term as its chief of
staff. Behind him were the
glories of the Chinese Boxer Re-
bellion campaign, leadership of

lectures and strict demands, the

showed it once when the gen.

resign. The entire corps signed
a petition persuading him tt
stay.

was scheduled to begin new

Police theorized the intruder

she had been handing him water

Release of hitherto secret
Western proposals for world dis
armament pointed UP anew today
that the major stumbling block
to agreement with the Soviet
Union still is the question of eff
fective control over the produc-
ton and maintenance of weap-
| ons.
The allies plan, which calls
for a control commission with
unrestricted access" and spe-
cific powers to check all potential
war facilities before the first gun
is strapped under any disarma-
ment program, was made public
in London and Washington yes
terday.
1t was contained in the 16
pages of resolutions introduced
by the various powers of the
United Nations Disarmament
Commission, which has been
meeting in London since Febru-
airy 25.
The documents were released
as a result of the Soviet Unions
public disclosure of its new dis
armament proposal last Tuesday
in violation of an agreement that
such matters be kept secret at
this time.
Powers Outlined
Under the plan put forward by
Canada, France, Great Britain
and the United States on April
81, the international control COM
mission would be empowered,
among other things:
l. To organize and conduct
field and aerial surveys to see
that terms of the treaty were
being carried out and to deter
mine whether all installations
and facilities had been disclosed.
2. To have unrestricted access
to, egress from and travel within
the territory of participating

and called police.
Four men were picked up IS
minutes later in the 1900 block
OF Kalmia road NV. in the
District. District poHce said they
found two rifles in the car with
the four suspects. They took
them to District police head
quarters for possible identiflca-
ton.
Four other suspects were
picked up short time later on
Lee highway in Arlington County.
Police said their car answered
the description of one seen near
the holdup. They were held for
possible Identification.
Quartet Described
The victims described the BAN
dts as four hful-looking
colored men. two of them wear
ing motorcycle caps and third
wearing a khaki shirt.
Police believe the holdup may
have been staged by the same
man responsible for two recent
t1nance company rooberies in
Prince Georges County. On
April 30. the Republic Finance
Corp, 4429 Southern avenue,
Coral Hills, was robbed Of 50, 300.
