Planners Back
Location
Action Will Permit
Work on Details Now
BY GEORGE BEVERIDGE

The National Capitol Planning
Commission today voted unani-
nous approval of the general To-
cation of the proposed Potomac
River bridge over the south end
of Roosevelt Memorial Island.
District officials said this ac-
ton would permit them to begin
immediate detailed planning for
the new location, which must be
cleared by Congress before actual
construction can start.
The commission also cleared
another threatened planning
bottleneck by approving con-
struction Of a new four-lane
Fourteenth street bridge to re-
place the old trestle-topped
three7lane span in approximately
its present location. Plans for
the new bridge are completed
and the District expects to- ask
for its 50 million construction
money In next years budget.
Delaying Action Beaten
The action on the new bridge
over Roosevelt Island was taken
after District officials argued
Istrenuously against moves to
postpone a vote until the ques-
ton is studied further.

was IN record for a bridge in the

At the prompting of the Theo-

Itrict asked Congress in the
waning days of the session to
modify the act to permit the
island crossing. The amendment
passed the Senate but got begged
down in the House.
Way to Save Time
J. N. Robertson, District high
way director, told the planners
that their action today, how
ever. would permit plans to &c

Bulganin Turns Down
Arms Inspection Offer
Eisenhower's
Plan Called
UnreuIistic'

MOSCOW, Aug. 4 R).-Pre.
mier Nikolai Bulganin today re-
Ijected the Eisenhower plan for
the United States and the Soviet
Union to swap military blue
prints and open their territories
to aerial inspection. He said. in
effect, that this idea couldn't
amount to much--and that the
Russian plan of disarmament
lis more realistic.
Under the Presidents plan,
Marshal Buiganin declared, any
one desiring TO do SO could hide
anything he wanted to. Deputies
of the Supreme Soviet (parlia-
ment) burst into laughter at
this statement.
The Premier made these re-
marks in a 10.000-word address
reporting on the summit confer
lence at Geneva. He paid tribute
Ito the conference as a serious
step toward peace"
At about the time he spoke.
the Atomic Energy Commission

that the Soviet Union within the
last few days has resumed test
ling of nuclear weapons. There
never is an announcement OF
such tests here, except possibly
after long interval.

Marshal Bulganin pledged
Soviet cooperation in the for

neva in October. But he made
Iclear the Soviet Union has made
no shift in its stand on the
key issue of Germany's reuni-
f1cation-and its opposition to
NATO.
Prime interest among diplo-
mats in the gallery, however. was
lin Marshal Bulganin's attitude
toward the Eisenhower arms
Iplan.
j The President offered at the
Geneva summit conference on
July 81 to pinpoint American
military establishments and let
them come under the eyes Of
Russian aerial inspection teams
in return for reciprocal action
by the Russians.
The President said he made
the proposal to convince every
lone of 'the great sincerity of the
United States in approaching
this problem of disarmament"

tary James Hagerty said he
had shown the President news

Aqoin on 40 Civilians
Another Recess in Geneva Discussions
Is Token Without Any Decision

understood to be based on a
declaration by Red China's
Premier Chou En-lai last Satur-
day.
MIR. Chou said that since there
were 40 diplomatic relations be-
tween the two countries, each
could entrust to a third country
the task of looking after the
affairs of its civilians in the
other country land primarily
the affairs concerning the return
of these civilians to their own
country"
Idea New to MenOn

matte relations with both gov
ernments, including Sweden,
India, Britain and Switzerland

United Nations Secretary Gen.
Ieral Dag Hammarskjold also had
secret talks yesterday with both
Mr.. Johnson and Mr.. Wang.
These, too. could have been re-
lated to the Chinese plan. Mr..
Hammarskjold has been in con-
tact with the Chinese Commu-
Inists ever since his trip last jan
uary to Peiping to seek release
of the is American flyers who
were freed in May and today.
Settlement of the dispute over
the civilians would open the way
for discussion of the second and
last item on the agenda of the
current talks-"other practical
matters at issue between the two
Sides"
Assurances Sought
Secretary of State Dulles clari-
fled the American view Tuesday
on the scope of this item. He
indicated he would like to see the
Chinese Communists make 9
formal declaration renouncine

Iputes and another statement
giving assurances that they
would avoid such incidents as
their shooting down a British
ICathay Pacific airliner over the
South China Sea last year.
If such assurances were forth
coming. Mr.. Dulles said, the way
would be cleared for extensive
negotiations on major problems
at a general Far Eastern confer
Ience attended by the United
States and other interested coun-
tries.
He made it clear that the
United States is opposed to dis
cussing the future of FormoSa
at the present conference, since

GENEVA, Aug. 4 B.-The
United States and Red China
called another recess today in
their secret talks without an
nouncing any agreement on the
release of 40 American civilians
held by the Peiping regime.
United States Ambassador U.
Alexis johnson and Chinese En-
voy Wang Ping-nan talked for
an hour and a half on the ques-
ton of the civilians, but neither
would indicate what progress, il
any, had been made.
An American spokesman an
nounced only that they would
meet again Monday on the same
subject.
This was seen as an indica-
ton that one or both of the am
Ibassadors required instructions
from his government. The two
ENJOYS had first discussed the
issue OF the civilians on Tuesday
and then recessed for 48 hours
Civilian Release Expected
Today's meeting was inter-
rupted by a 15-minute recess at
which the Ambassadors con-
lferred separately with their
aides.
Despite the apparent failure
of today's session to produce
agreement. rumors persisted
that the release of the Amer
lican civilians could be expected
soon.
Mr.. johnson denied earlier
reports that he and Mr.. Wang
had agreed in principle on re-
lpatriation of the Americans and
lof an indefinite number of Chi
nese students Peiping charges
lare detained by the United
States.
The Chinese have left the
impression, however, that they
are ready to free the Amer
leans and are looking for a
formula on the students. which
would save face for them. The
United States insists all Chi
lnese who want to return to
their homeland are free to go.
This mornings session had
been expected to deal primar-
lily with a Chinese proposal
which repeatedly calls for a
third neutral country to check
the students to see if they are
being detained against their
will.
Although both delegations
maintained the greatest secrecy
Mr.. johnson was reported to
have sent this proposal to Wash
|ington Tuesday for study. Pre-
sumably he had received in
structions by this morning.

were not known. but it was
