West Accepts Red Proposal For
 Big Four Meeting

LONDON, tR - The Western Big Three today accepted RusSia's proposal for Big Four ministers meeting to complete the Austrian treaty of independence.
 But the United States, Britain and France laid down a condition that their ambassadors in Vienna should meet first with the Soviet envoy there and Austrian repre- sentatives to clear up unsettled questions.
 Emphasizing the speed with which the western allies are nov ing on the issue, US. officials said in Washington a three power working party will begin study ing procedures in Vienna next Monday.
 The identical notes from the United States, Britain and France are in response to Russia's pro- poSal last Tuesday. The Russians, acting after their agreement with Austrian officials last week at meeting in Moscow, called for an early foreign ministers session to sign treaty restoring Austria's independence. This appeared to end 10 years of Soviet stalling.
 "As soon as the necessary pre- parations have been completed, the note said, "the earliest prac- ticable date should then be set for the foreign ministers to meet and sign the treaty"

40 T.B. Patients From Anchorage Flown To Tacoma Indian Hospital

TACOMA, tR'-Forty tubercul- osis patients from Anchorage, arrived by plane at the Seattle Tacoma airport Thursday after noon and were taken to the US. Indian Hospital in Tacoma.
 They were brought here be- cause of a shortage of accomoda- tions in the Alaska Native Service hospital there, officials at the hospital here said. Ten more patients are to arrive this week or next from Sitka.
 At Anchorage, pr. Robert G. Moles, ANS medical director, said transfer of the patients will not reduce the number of patients at the ANS hospital there as most of the group sent outside have been recently called in from the interior.
 The "go ahead" signal has also been given for increased staffing of the hospital, with an increase in the number of patients to be cared for, Dr. Moles said.
 At present there are about 280 patients in the Anchorage hos pital The hospital has a bed capacity of 400 out of which a section is set aside for general cases.

Nehru Assails NATO as Protector Of COIOnialism
By ROBERT HEWITT

BANDUNG, Indonesia, tR nm Prime Minister Nehru assailed the North Atlantic Treaty Organ ization today as a protector of colonialism. He urged his own neutralist policy upon other dele gates to the 29 : nation Asian African conference.
 Nehru's blast came in response to a statement from Turkish dele gate Fatin Rusto Zollu that "Tur- key would not have survived Russian expansiom and we would not be at this conference today" if she had not joined NATO.
 "We have heard what Turkey has to say," Nehru responded. That is one side of the case. The other side would be presented here. But India does not stand for either side. We do not approve the Communist or the anti-Com- munist powers. We think that they are both wrong and that their policies are leading us to the brink of war"
 The Indian leader contended that the IA nation organization headed by the United States, Britain and France is lone of the most powerful protectors of col onialism, though it was created for self defense"
 "The only way to bring peace into the world is to reduce the area of tension through coexist- ence," he said.
 The conference ran into it's first big deadlock today in a bitter argument over charges of 'Com- munist coloniaism.
 A subcommittee after arguing on the Communist issue for more than two hours, finally adjourned until tomorrow. The issue at stake is a move by non-Commu- mist powers to put the conference on record as condemning sub version" as well as old style colonialism.

Andrews SiameSe Twins Survive Operation Separating Them

CHICAGO, R - The e head joined Andrews Siamese twin girls were separated last night and surgeons are ''guardedly op- timistic" that both will survive.
 Never have two similarly link ed Siamese twins survived sep aration
 pr. Harold Voris, who headed the team of IA doctors perform ing the operation, said it was completed in the relatively fast time of 412 hours. This compared to 121@ hours required for sep aration of the famous Brodie twins in 1852. Rodney Brodie, now 312, survived; Roger died 34 days after the separation.
 Unlike the Brodie, the Andrews girls, now nearly ' months old, had separate sagittal sinuses, the viens which drain blood from the brain. Dr. Voris said this fact was responsible for the opera tion's success.
 The twins 33-year-old mother, Mrs. Andrew J. Andrews, is a Chicago registered nurse. The father, 38, is a meat packing company salesman.

Search For Uranium
 Surges North Into Idaho From Utah and Colorado

BOISE, Idaho, tR - The great scramble for uranium TIT the raw material of atomic energy - is surging north from Utah and Colorado into Idaho, where miners for almost a century have been finding pay dirt in deposits of gold and silver, copper, lead and zinc
 More than 1000 claims have been staked in recent weeks in one small area alone - in the valley of the Salmon River which winds through the trackless mountains of Idaho's primitive area"
 Since early April the state has leased almost 150,OOO acres of public land to uranium prospec- tors, and other applications are piling up by the score.
 Sales of Geiger counters, "scin- tillators" and snapper" are soaring.
 All this-and not a single de posit or proven commercial value has yet been dug in the state.

NationaIists Reject Proposal .Chiang Abandon Islands
By SPENCER MOOSA

TAIPEH, Formosa, tR - High Nationalist Chinese officials re- jected beforehand today a pro- posal that might be made for Chiang Kai-Shek's forces to abandon the coastal island groups of Quemoy and Matsu.
 Absurd - ridiculous - un- thinkable - impossible" these officials said of Washington re- ports that the United States may seek a ceasefire which would mean giving up the islands to the Communists.
 The officials said the question was a hypothetical one. They in sisted that the United States had at no time suggested, directly or indirectly, that those offshore islands be yielded to the Reds, as were the Tachens.
 There was no doubt, however, that there were forebodings even in top quarters as to the possible mission here of Assistant Secre- tary of State Walter Robertson and Adm. Arthur Radford, chair man of the US. Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Display Totem Pole Stolen From Merchandise Mart,
 Largest Commercial Bldg.

CHICAGO, LR-Chicago's Mer- chandise Mart, largest commer- cial building in the world, is loaded with home furnishings, clothing and other most useful items.
 A thief who visited the Mart sometime this week overlooked these articles and walked out with, of all things, a totem pole.
 Police are puzzled over how anyone could make off with a totem pole feet long and 6 inches thick without attracting attention.
 J. Robert F. Swanson and Mrs. Pipsan Aarinen Swanson, Detroit designers, bought the totem pole in Alaska and used it it in ex- hibit at the Mart.
 While they worried about their loss, they passed on this non-con- soling thought:
 Alaska totem pole carvers say it's bad luck to steal totem pole.
