Officials Keep
Busy Honoring
Burma S u NJ
By JAMES E. ROPER

American officials kept the
red carpet rolled out today for
Prime Minister U Nu Of Burma.
They arranged to honor the
sarong-clad Prime Minister at
ia Capitol Hill luncheon and to
Introduce him on the floor Of
the Senate and House this after
noon.
Afterwards, q Nu planned to
confer with Secretary of Agri-
culture Benson as part of a
whirlwind official visit to Wash
Iington.
The 48-year-old Prime Min
lister few into Washington yes
lterday. confident that he can
help bridge the diplomatic gap
between the United States and
Communist China. He sees this
feud as a main cause of tension
in the Far East.
u Nu, although a neutral in
the East West rivalry, has built
Ia reputation for sincerity and
honesty in his approach to in
Iternational as well as domestic
laffairs. The government he
heads is a model for honesty for
Asian nations.
Thus it was that President
Eisenhower, Secretary of State
Dulles and other American Off
cials were willing to listen to
U MI with open minds during
preliminary talks yesterday.
u Nu talked first with Mr..
Dulles, then with Mr.. Eisenhower
at a White House luncheon be-
fore sightseeing at the National
Archives, Library Of Congress
and Supreme Court.
Secretary Dulles gave D dinner
for him last night.
U Nu last December visited
Peiping. where he apparently
established a working relation
with the Chinese Communists.
If he gets along as well with
Americans, he feels that he can
contribute to peace in Asia.
American officials, for their
part, would like to see him lead
his country into the Manila Pact
for the Defense of Southeast
Asia.
