wealth meeting in London.
Western diplomats still held
hope that Egypt might in the
long run agree to a negotiated
settlement to keep the Suez UNI
der International authority. One
source close to Col. Nasser said
he might agree to send an OBJ
server to the London parley, but
would refuse to bind Egypt to the
conference decisions.
West Drafting Proposals
The British, French and
Americans were reported formu-
lating proposals for the interna-
tional Suez authority they want
set up.
Repeatedly they want the au-
thority to consist of 8 or 10
countries which depend most on
the Suez and would be nonprofit.
Revenues from the canal tolls
would be used to pay off stock
holders of the old canal COM
pany, pay royalties to Egypt and
maintain the waterway.
Despite Col. Nasser's national
ization decree and his fiery words
blasting the West, there still
was no indication that Egypt
might interfere with shipping
through the canal.

Demetriadou took the initiative
in asking to make the broadcast

pointed out to her that her life
might be endangered if she went

An appeal to EOKA by three
condemned countrymen during
the week end apparently brought
about the release of a 78-year-old
British hostage who had been
threatened with death.
Freed after three days and
three nights in an EOKA hide
out, John A. Cremer was re-
ported in good condition in
a hospital but suffering from
shock and abrasions. He was
bound, gagged and blindfolded
while a hostage for the release
OF the three Cypriots under
death sentence.
Mr.. Cremer, a retired govern

day night near this resort where
he lives alone. EOKA, the under
