Expected a considerably larger
number last night, this had been
the pattern of the past six weeks.
But at 9 am. they had counted
only another 564.
Eisenstadt border police head
quarters attributed some of the
reduction to the after effects OF
the general strike called in Hun
gary earlier in the week. Lack
of trains and buses apparently
prevented many refugees from
reaching the frontier.
The showdown gave rescue
groups chance to ease the tenn
porary camps in Burgenland OF
their burden. The tiny province
at one time had over 10000 refu-
gees in emergency lodgings
which include barns. dance floors
and Schoolrooms. Today there
were 4,286 by official count. The
rest had been moved to camps
farther inside Austria.
Fifteen national Red Cross So
cieties today were taking over the
care of $4,000 refugees in large
camps throughout Austria. On

u. S. Pledge on Suez
Seen by London, Paris

has leaned over backwards dur
ing the conference to convince
the Asian and African countries
that the United States is not
deciding their future in the
course of seeking unity within
NATO.
He told the conference the
United States could not bring
all the problems with other
friends into the NATO confer
ence rooms. And the American
delegation is anxious to show
its non-NATO friends and neu-
trial countries that NATO is not
becoming a great world super
structure which will settle all
the worlds problems without
taking the views of others into
account.
The Americans want it to be
known that their policy toward
other nations is not "finalized''
by the discussions in NATO.
Meanwhile the American dele
cation laid to rest a couple of
fears, but created another.
First it was said the United
States does not contemplate
withdrawal from Germany on an
agreement that Russia will do
the same. Reports in American
newspapers that this was to be
the United States policy are not
true it was said.
No Plans to Cut Forces
1t was stated also that Amer
lea has no plans to reduce eff
Ifectiveness of its forces in Ger
many or elsewhere in the world.
Manpower in each division will
be cut slowly in the next two or
three years (from 1880 men
per division to $4,000 but mobil-
ity, f1exibility and firepower will
be increased. And the number
of atomic units will be expanded.
AT the same time, there was nc
indication the administration
would ask Congress for relaxing
Iof the law prohibiting the United
States from giving atomic ex-
plosives to its allies. Anyhow
III there's any firm intention to
ask for a new law. word of that
was not being circulated in
Paris.
NATO countries, of course,
would like very much for Amer
lea to share its atomic arsenal
including bombs and rockets
not just gadgets to launch them

of the manner in which the cur
rent Hungarian refugee problem
is being handled.
The idea is to decide whether
permanent ground rules" for
similar situations in the future
should be spelled out in Ameri-
can law.
AS of now. 21,5OO Hungarians
who fled into Austria from Soviet
force in their home country are
slated for admission to the
United States-6,50O under the
temporary 1858 Refugee Relief
Act which expires at the end OF
this month. and $4,000 under
special permits granted by At

entry papers under a brief pro-
vision in the immigration laws
This says the Attorney General
in his discretion" may parole
into the United States TEN
porarily" any alien who might
be inadmissable under general
immigration tests.
The current Hungarian adj
missions represent the largest
lump use Of such discretion and
Mr.. Brownell is reported to have
said in conferences on the
emergency that in such a mass
movement this is too much dis
erection for one man."
Hence the movement to estab-
fish standards for future emer-
gencieS Of the same sort. This
could take the form of per-
manent refugee legislation or
simply a congressional declara-
