ling was that there is no necessity

Mr.. Hall explained that the

Asked why the Citizens for
Eisenhower shy away from Mr..
Nixon, Mr.. Hall said they are
following the same course they
took in 1852 Of being only for
mfr. Eisenhower until after the
convention had selected both

At a press conference, Senator

Nixon have said that this is ar

the stimulant of successive con-
quests, has shown hesitancy botli
internally and abroad"
In addition to ending the Ko-
rean war. the statement points
to new security pacts concluded
with Middle Eastern countries.
The plank notes that in Indo-
China "the Republics of Wet
nam, Cambodia and Laos are
now free and independent ma
TONS" There is no reference to
the fact that the rich and popu-
lous northern half of Vietnam
has been now under firm Com
munist control since 1858, or
that Laos has been heavily in
filtrated by Communist forces.
Liberation Of Iran"
Similar satisfaction is ex-
pressed over the defensive
unity" of the northern tier coun-
tries of the Middle East: Tur-
key, Iran, Iraq and PakiStan.
The reference here is presumably
to the controversial Baghdad
Pact of 1855 of which Britain is
a member, but the United States
is not.
In its section Of Europe, the
G. o. p. plank extols the new
status of the German Federal
Republic which until 1858
was denied sovereignty and
the opportunity to join the
North Atlantic Treaty Organiza-
ton. 1t does not say that until,
1858, the restoration of German
sovereignty and its entry into
NATO was tied firmly to the
European Defense Community
that cornerstone of American
policy" which foundered, despite
maximum American effort, in
the French Parliament in 1854.
Compromise on Israel
The most controversial Sec
ton of the proposed plank
dealing with support for Israel
apparently represents a COM
promise between conflicting
viewpoints. While denying the
request of. some for an outright
statement Recommending defen-
sive arms TO Israel, the 1856
plank goes further than the one
four years ago in supporting the
Israeli cause.
Recognizing "the existence OF
a major threat to international
peace in the Near East" the
statement declares that progress
toward a settlement of the Arab
Israel conflict was upset" by
the sale Of Communist arms to-
the Arab countries. 1t regards
"the preservation Of Israel as an
important tenet of American
foreign policy" and adds:
I'VE are determined that the
integrity of an independent jew
ish state shall be maintained.
We shall support the independ-
ence Of Israel against armed
aggression"
The statement is stronger.
largely by indirection. since
nothing is said about protecting
the Arab states against agrees
sion from Israel. 1t amounts
essentially to a reaffirmation of
the 1850 declaration on preserv-
ing peace in the area signed by
Britain. France and the United
States.
The present foreign policy
plank, as released by the Ma
tional Committee, is carefully
labeled as "the first unoficialI
and tentative draft Of a portion
of the Republican platform Of
1886" In subsequent readings
before the full Resolutions Com
mittee there is the chance that
certain sections may be reworded
before the plank goes to the
convention tomorrow.
In line with the unusually
orderly way in which this con-
vention is developing. however,
no major changes seem probable
at this stage. And no serious
disputes over its provisions are
expected.

But he also said that interior
ence with free passage of ships
through the canal would be an
act of aggression punishable by

He called the Dulles plan a
state within q state
Comdr. Sabry said his govern
ment supports in general the
proposal by Mr.. Shepilov for a
new and bigger conference on
the canal question.
Principles Outlined
Working with the British and
the French, Mr.. Dulles drew up
a resolution outlining a set OF
principles for international con-
troll of the canal. The Western
Big Three viewed the resolution
as an outline of a basis for nego-
tiations with Egypt on the future
operation of the waterway. ma
tionalized three weeks ago by
Egyptian President Nasser.
i Well placed sources empha-
sized the Dulles resolution would
not be an ultimatum to Col.
Nasser. Rather. it was to be
presented as an invitation to
negotiate a new treaty, with a
clear statement Of what the
Western powers believe the
treaty should cover.
Informants said Mr.. Dulles
secured the support Of a ma
ljority Of the nations that con-
vened here four days ago in pri-
vate meetings outside the con-
ference hall. but that four ma
ltions are expected to oppose his
plan and three have not made
their position clear.
i Dulles PROVISIONS
The Dulles resolution provides:
\ /. Removal Of the Suez from
the political sphere Of any ma
ton;
2. Expression of respect for
the sovereignty Of Egypt:
8. Fair compensation to the
stockholders Of the Suez Canal
Co.. which operated the canal
for nearly q century before
Egypt's seizure;
4. Establishment Of an inter-
national board, including Egypt,
to operate, enlarge and improve
the canal. The board would re-
port to the United Nations and
its activities would be reviewed
by some U. N. body.
/ The critical point is the last
one. Col. Nasser has repeatedly
said he would never accept in
ternational operation Of the
canal.

for Egypt. has argued at the con-
ference that II would be an in
fringement on Egyptian aover.

You don't thrust a mans ill

Mr. Finnegan said Mr.. Steven
